RIDE WITH YOU
1479 Words
Goodnight" Eclipse smiled when Ryker stopped the car.
Ryker nodded and took off as soon as she dropped,he drove straight to the company to get what Kyros sent him. He must have forgotten some documents in his office.
The securities allowed him in without arguments and in no time he was already inside Kyros's office.
He got what he came for and was on his way out when the door opened and Dilara entered.
"Oh my gosh?! It's a thief!!...." She was screaming but Ryker was fast enough to cover her mouth.
"Hmm!!! Hmm!!" She struggled with him.
"What the f**k are you saying? It's me Ryker, not a thief" Ryker said before releasing her.
"What was that?!" Dilara yelled.
"I should be asking you, I'm sure you saw my face" Ryker snapped.
"Well you have the face of a robber" Dilara said.
"Oh wow, I can't believe this. Do you hate me that much?"
Dilara hissed and went out without answering his question.
Ryker sighed and took the files before going out also.
*
KYROS'S CASTLE*
"Where are you going? How about you give me a ride?" Morana asked on the bed as she dressed back after their business together.
Kyros said nothing, he used his wristwatch and checked something on one of his phones.
"I'm coming with you!" Morana grabbed her bag and ran after him as he went out .
"You came with your car" Kyros said on their way out.
"I still want to ride with you" She smiled and tried holding him, but just one glare from Kyros made her stop.
They both ignored all the maids and guards bowing as they walked together, while Morana was smiling happily just because she's walking beside him, a kitten suddenly ran into them from nowhere,making them stop.
Kyros frowned as the kitten climbed on his legs.
"I'm sorry!" Diora said loudly as she ran closer.
Kyros raised his brows, he stared at the girl in front of him as she picked up the kitten and looked up.
"I'm sorry" She repeated,softly and quickly avoided his eyes.
Kyros haven't said anything when Morana spoke up.
"It's the bride again" She chuckled mockingly.
'Bride?' Kyros asked inwardly in shock.
Bride?! This is the bride?
"That wasn't my intention,I'm sorry" Diora mumbled.
"That's not the point, isn't it concerning? Who choose you to be his bride in the first place?" Morana asked.
"I did" A voice answered from a distance and they all turned to see a woman in her sixties walking closer with bodyguards.
"Mom??" Kyros raised his brows.
"Oh...mother" Morana stuttered.
"Your lost your mother?" Mrs Castillio asked and Morana kept quiet.
Mrs Castillio walked over to Diora and smiled at her.
"You choose her? For me?" Kyros asked.
"That's right, and you" she looked at Morana.
"Watch your mouth next time, a s*x mate should know her place"
Morana swallowed.
"Guards, escort her out" Mrs Castillio said.
Immediately, Morana was taken away.
"I will leave you two also" Mrs Castillio smiled and also walked away with her guards, Oceane quickly came to take Lolly from Diora and hurried off again.
Leaving just Diora and her racing heart in front of her nightmare,called Kyros. Her heart was racing but she wasn't breathing,not when she was looking like a little child in front of the giant man, just how tall is he?? She's not this small beside everyone else, what is he?
Kyros was also staring at the doll like girl in front of him, is she even real? This tiny girl? For him? She's probably underage,she looks fifteen or sixteen.
"How old are you?" Was the first word he blurted out.
"Twenty...." Diora said it but he didn't capture what she said last.
"What?"
"Twenty two, I'm twenty two" Diora repeated.
Kyros blinked, twenty two? Why does she look this way If she's twenty two?
Diora looked up when she noticed he wasn't saying anything again, their eyes locked.
"Don't listen to mom, pack your things and leave,before it's too late" Kyros said and turned to leave.
But immediately, he felt something tiny holding his shirt and he frowned,darkly.
He turned to see Diora,her face down.
That very moment, Diora made up her mind. She was done, she was done being the soft and weak one,she needs to fight for herself,by herself. She has no one, just herself.
"Please....let me stay" she mumbled.
He frowned deeper.
"I have...nowhere...to go" Diora mumbled.
Kyros scoffed.
"You look like someone who would die once I slide in my d**k, Once" he said in a mocking tone.
Diora bit her lower lip and looked up at him with a pretty innocent eyes.
"I....I won't die" She stuttered
Morana sighed and sat down on tbe couch, maybe her mind should be at rest for now. There's Kitra anyway.
NEXT MORNING, KYROS'S CASTLE.
Ryker stood some distance away from Kyros inside the closet room as he dressed up, he picked up his last touch, the shirt and threw his arms into it like a perfectionist. His favorite color? Black.
You would hardly see another color in his closet, as big and wide the room is,like a shopping mall.
"Do I have a lot to do today?" Kyros finally asked, and as if Ryker has been waiting for that question,he began pouring everything out.
"You haven't responded to all the letters we received last week, the governor's letter is part of it"
"Why would he send me a shitty letter when he has a phone? Is he crazy?" Kyros scoffed and rolled his eyes.
"It's an official...." Ryker bit his lips when Kyros glared at him.
"The king wants to meet up with you...this evening..."
"I can't make it, I have a dinner to attend. I will see him at the council meeting tomorrow, why's everyone stressing the f**k out of me?" He snapped.
"There are some petitions to review as well"
"What about the company? Enough of the Duke title and responsibility that I hate so much, tell me about my companies" Kyros said.
"Dilara signed the contract with the company, you will be impressed. They request for a meeting day"
Kyros nodded.
"Then?"
"That's all, aside the interview with..."
"I'm not in for any interview" Kyros said.
Ryker sighed and canceled it on his ipad.
"I will let them know" He bowed.
"I will try to respond to some of the letters and review some petitions, arrange them according to how important they are, I will be there" Kyros said.
"Yes boss" Ryker bowed and walked out of the closet room.
Kyros finished dressing up and went out also, he entered his bedroom and took one of his phone on the bed, he got a message which he clicked on right away.
Little Sis: Don't forget the dinner party tonight brother. I love you. 😍
Kyros ignored it without sending a reply, he dropped the phone on the bed again and picked another one before walking out of the room.
******
Diora opened her eyes slowly and groaned tiredly while stretching her arms, Lolly jumped on the bed the moment she saw Diora was awake.
"Lolly" Diora smiled and was about carrying the kitten when Oceane entered and raised the curtains, allowing the sunlight into the room.
"Oh come on Oceane" Diora groaned and buried her face into the pillow.
"Good morning, my lady" She bowed.
"I hate sunlight" Diora mumbled.
"That's why you look so pale, my lady"
Diora sat up immediately.
"Maybe that's true, I was always home" She said.
Oceane smiled.
"You need to take your bath, I prepared you a special dish this morning" Oceane said,pointing toward the small dinning room just across the room.
"Thanks for always feeding me" Diora said.
"But you barely eat half of it, you need food so you would grow in size"
Diora pouted.
"You should take your bath, hurry up. You don't like cold food"
Diora managed to get out of bed.
"What dress do you think would fit perfectly for the dinner party tonight? I'm nervous" She said.
"Leave that to me, there are many dresses in your closet, I will pick the best one I promise. Can you walk in heels?" She asked.
Diora simply shook her head.
"I've never tried one on"
"That's bad" Oceane mumbled.
"You have a lot to learn now, you're the Duke's wife, you will be going to different occasions with him" She added.
"You really think he would take me with him? I don't look like the type he would take to any occasion or outings" Diora mumbled.
"What's wrong with you? Nothing, you just need to get into shape and you should trust me on that" Oceane said.
Diora smiled.
"I will trust you of course"
"Good, now go into the bathroom, my lady"
Diora chuckled and walked out of the bedroom.
