”Fxxk Alexander” he grabs her and pulls her to
him,
”Oww” she exclaims,
”I am sorry” he pulls away and then stares at
her, he is shaking his head, stilling his beating
heart ”You are crazy, you are so so crazy” he
repeats.
She laughs in her tears ”And you have sworn
like a hundred times already today…” she
cries, he wipes her tears staring at her, he
shakes his head laughing
”The bible is the truth, bad company
corrupts good manners. I would never swear
and stuff like that before but you walked in and
…i am going fxxk fxxk fxxk !!”
She laughs ”Blame the teacher” she wipes her
eyes
He stares at her , he flic-ks a tear from her
cheeks ”I am sorry, i didn’t mean to..i…God i
was scared and worried and ….” he trails off.
Shaking his head. What the hell was happening
to him?. He reaches for her hand again ”I met
you, i hated you…you were a pain in my arse.
Still is”
”That makes two of us” she chuckles
He nods ”But i don’t anymore Alexander…i
don’t hate you. If anything, i care about you,
seeing that your tricked me and went to the
heritage election, i saw you there and aside
thinking of my family and running out the door
to protect them by all means, i was thinking
about your safety too…and then the gun shot,
you on the floor and…..i don’t want to ever see
you hurt Alexander…i don’t .
So this is what is
going to happen..when you get out of here, i
am going to ensure that you have a better life.
First thing i would do is to rip off that
contract, then i would ensure you get a better
job, you will get paid for the time you had to
spend with me and then you can go far away
and have a good life and stay away from this
danger until all this is cleared up…”
She felt suddenly sad. Then she became angry
again cutting him off ”I don’t want your money
Lockswire, and i get being a call girl is a
…degrading job but atleast it’s a job plus i do
not have to depend on someone to take care
of me or give me money like a hand me down”
”I won’t let you go back to that job Alexander”
he states.
”Why?. You got the President seat, and maybe
Mayor…your life is on track..plus you now
know Jimmy who the hell and whatever he is-
is someone you nee-d to keep an eye on and
then..what do you nee-d me for anyways, you
don’t! And besides i didn’t exactly do anything
for you so you don’t have to pay me nothing
and then you don’t have to whisk me away to
some city like i am a piece of cloth or
whatever, I am my own boss and you aren’t the
boss of me” she jabs his che-st.
”I won’t allow you go back to that job. It is..”
he catches her finger.
”Demeaning? Well you high clas-s pretty boy
didn’t mind getting your clean fine daddy’s
limo to come pick a call girl to play for
handle or whatever” she flares up
”Damnit Alexander, one minute we are cool and
the next we are like cat and dogs” he flings his
hands up in the air.
”’Don’t try to control my life or tell me what to
do” she jabs him again.
”I am not trying to. I just ..i want you to get a
decent job, i want you away from danger, i
want you to live your life…i cannot ..i cannot
let anything happen to you okay. Twice you
have been at the verge of death, because of
me i cannot and won’t let a third happen. So
being far away from this city would keep you
save form the likes of Jimmy and that Kennedy
guy until we settle all of that. Having a decent
job would ensure you don’t have to….” he trails
off
”You can say it!” she flares up ”Sleep with
random men for money”
He stares at her and then grabs her ”I do not
want another man touching you ..not in that
way…i just suddenly do not want and can’t
ba-re the thought of knowing you are out there,
working your client and he is touching you and
making love to you-”
”s-×, it is s-×. ”
”Whatever!!! I don’t want another man to touch
you, not that way again”
She blinks, trying to be sarcastic ”Why? You
want to be the only one to touch me that way
Lockswire?”
He lets her go ”You enjoy riling me up don’t
you?”
”You didn’t answer the damn question”
He stands up from the bed, backing her, ”I
think..” he trails off turning to her ”I think you
are an amazing woman Alexander, aside your
annoying traits and your hot fiery temper. i
think you deserve love and happiness and a
decent life and forgive me if i want that for
you”
”You don’t even know me Lockswire or what i
want for me”
”Yet, i don’t know all i want to know about you
yet or what you want for you..but it doesn’t
mean i can’t want good things for you, it
doesn’t mean i don’t care, don’t mean i want
want the best for you and want your safety!”
”And you didn’t ask me what the hell i want, if i
want to go far away or if i want to be here..and
maybe keep annoying you” she blurts out. She
bites her li-ps, his eyes follows the moment. A
desi-re burns within him.
He stares at her , he runs a hand throu-ghhis
head. His emotions were all over the place, not
making sense, her’s too. He could tell.
Whatever was happening here, it didn’t make
sense. But whatever he was feeling felt right,
too right.
He goes to the bed, faces her ”Alexander
Beckington, if you stay in town…”
”I am not going anywhere..okay, that’s it”
”Fine! But i can’t let you out of my sight”
”Someone has to cater to my nee-ds, afterall
it’s because of you i got shot” she sniffs.
He leans back, she smiles ”Well…”
He shakes his head ”You are crazy”
”Yeah, a crazy person you suddenly care about”
she stares at him ”Who would have thought”
”You said you cared about me too” his voice is
low, he liked how she said it even though she
was mad.
”I lied”
He stare at her with a raised eyebrow…, ”Fine!
i can work with that” he takes her hand ”You
know, it would be great if we don’t fight all the
time. It’s a kill joy”
She smiles loving the feel of his warm hands
”Being normal is boring…i think once i bark
you stay on your toes, works for me” she bites
her li-ps. He realized that the movement alone
makes him want to run his tongue over her
li-ps, be the one doing that.
He reaches out and then cleans her
eyes..”Sorry i ki-ssed you earlier. I probably
took you unawares”
She says nothing
”But i am going to do it again”
”Is that a habit now?” a sly smile places at the
corner of her li-ps
”It could be, it depends..would you push me
away this time?”
She says nothing for a second, she co-cks her
head to the side ”Depends, would you be an
as-s-hole?”
He thinks for a moment ”Define as-s-hole” he is
leaning in with a smile to his li-ps.
”I still don’t fancy ki-sses” she breaths
He nods , inches away from her li-ps, ”That’s
fine, practice makes perfect plus, you didn’t do
bad the last time, if i didn’t know better, i
would say you enjoyed your first clas-s…”
She could feel his hot breath, her heart is
pounding… ”Why do you want to ki-ss me again
Jaime?” she whispers, she nee-ded to know.
”Because it’s the only thing that makes sense
right now and …i feel if i don’t i won’t be able
to stop looking at your li-ps, especially you
bi-ting them, does that suffice?” he raises his
eyes to stare at her
she says nothing, she bites her li-ps again
”Damnit!” he swears again
He closes the distance and then captures her
li-ps ki-ssing her. Forgetting what he he had
come to the hospital to ask her. Forgetting
about Kennedy and his insinuations of them
being family.
They ki-ssed for a much longer time this time.
He ran his tongue over her li-ps, dipping them
into her mouth as he urges her mouth open.
Dear Lord, her heart is pounding fast, why? This
has never happened before. Alexander thinks
within her. But soon she can’t think anymore.
What he was doing had her all tingly.
His finger is un-der he chin, raising her head up
to him. He has her li-ps glued to his, enjoying
very moment as tongue twirl against tongue.
He could feel her heart pounded, or maybe it
was his. As every moment pas-ses, the desi-re
to take her in his arms mounts.
They continue to ki-ss.
Alexander is breathless, but for the first, no
second time…ever. She had realized that she
liked ki-sses, and maybe she liked it with him.
The feel of his soft li-ps to hers, the way he
drinks from her, twirling his tongue and urging
her mouth open, the way his li-ps felt against
hers. She felt warm, she felt good and she
wanted more.
She unconsciously touches his face, with both
hands and then slowly wands her hands around
his ne-ck. She felt him pull closer, and then felt
his hand touch her ne-ck, then her cheeks, then
she felt his thumb caress her so slowly .
She felt weak, or maybe the drugs they had
given her was making her weak. Or was it his
ki-sses/ She felt weak but in a good way.
She wanted to be free, free to lean in to him,
to hold him or have him hold her. Just to be
near him, closer to him.
Damn her wound, moving too much would
cause her pain but…
Oh !!
He removes his li-ps from hers and then ki-sses
her ne-ck, trailing his tongue there..
ohhhhh! A tiny M0-n escapes her li-ps.
She bites her li-ps, and moves her ne-ck, it was
ticklish, it felt good too.
Jaime smiles, observing ”You are ticklish
there” he says ki-ssing her ne-ck again..
”I..” she swallows ”Didn’t know that” she
admits closing her eyes.
These s-ns¶tions she was feeling, they were
new to her, really new. How could she not
know she was ticklish at her ne-ck? Or that if
she really had tried she would love ki-sses or
that…
Oh…
Jaime ki-sses the back of her ears, and then
finds his way back to her ne-ck, jaw, and then
back to her li-ps, teasing her. She felt like
standing up, or something. Anything to really
enjoy this feeling burning inside her.
She ki-sses him back until they are both out of
air.
He should stop, he was getting excited.
He pulls away slowly, pecking her li-ps.. They
stare at each other. She looks away, he
doesn’t. He continuous to stare at her, feeling
the s-ns¶tion in his che-st, observing it rise
from his toe to his head and back centering
where his heart is. Her beauty, her smile,
everything about her made sense to him now.
Everything about Alexander not only made
sense, it felt right, real, powerfully strong. He
felt like he could fly, face the world.
This s-ns¶tion, was more than he had ever felt
before for any woman, much more than he had
felt for Christine. He had never truly felt this
way for anyone. Then he realized it, staring at
her.
He smiles shaking his head
oh Jaime Lockswire, your mother is right. !!!
He runs a hand throu-ghhis hair.
There was no way he was going to ever let her
go now that he had realized this. There was no
way.
”Alexander?”
”Hmm”
”I hope you don’t mind staying with me..i
mean, till you heal properly. Erm..” he clears
his throat ”Doctor said you can go home
tomorrow, you are healing fast so…i
erm..would get a nurse to come check on you
and stuff and–”
”If you insist” she states not letting him finish
”Great”* He has a broad smile on ”Great!” he
repeats. ”I would come get you after work.”
She nods ”You better!” she smiles.
*
Christine and Jimmy continue to hook up.
Jimmy goes about his day to day business,
and when he gets back to his office, while the
officer who is supposed to watch him is
stationed outside, he makes his way out his
window to make more plans for the party to
happen in a few days.
His phone is ringing as soon as he touches
ground ”Gareth, what?”
‘We nee-d to talk” came the reply
”Meet me at the Pub, you know the place”
*
An hour later Gareth tells him what had
happened and how he has resolved it. He tells
Jimmy he nee-ds some cash to send his family
away. Jimmy inquires if he wants to be part of
his plan to bring Jaime down, then he wouldn’t
have to be worried of being caught or sending
his family away. Plus he says he can take his
bosses’ place. Gareth tells him he lost to
Jaime, how can he make good on his
promise.Jimmy tells him this time, his plan
was bullet prove, 100 percent happening.
Gareth is indecisive. Jimmy pushes, plus tells
him how he can pay his boss back for putting
him in detention and on suspension. Gareth is
bitter , he agrees, stating that if the police have
nothing against him, which they don’t because
his friend called him and told him he fried his
computer, he would be reinstated. He agrees
to join Jimmy again. He states that once he is
reinstated, he would ask to be a part of the
security detail to the Wellington’s. Then he
would be able to control things.
They shake hands, Jimmy leaves.
He is back to his office. No one can claim he
went about plotting a crime. Ina few days,
Kennedy would die in cell, the Wellingtons would
die in their home and he would be king.
He has a smile on his face.
*
Frank made a copy of the set of keys he had
stolen and found away to drop it on the floor
where it can be found.
Jate had raised an alarm that he lost his keys
to the cell, there was an uproar. Salim didn’t
take it lightly with him.
The cleaner finds it, Salim gives Jate a query
for being careless, he would go on a one week
suspension, his replacement was coming in to
take over for the time period.
Frank sees a better opportunity, it was his only
change. He would kill Kennedy during the
change. He would find away to get in
disguised as a cell guard on a day they have
less supervisors working. That was the only
way.He bids his time.
He had a few days window. One day was all
he nee-ded. That day was the party of the
Mayor’s son when the station might be half
empty save for a few officers on duty. He
would be right here.
He wondered if using a knife would be better.
*
Salim is standing in the middle of the office ,
Jacob is seated behind his big mahogany desk
in his office.
”Nothing, you couldn’t get anything on Jimmy?”
”No Sir, nothing”
Jacob sighs
”What do i do Sir?”
”Jaime had asked for the investigation, i am
sure he was sure of those facts before he
brou-ght it..”
”I suppose but nothing can be found and we
cannot arrest him for a crime we do not have
landing evidence aside this that he has
committed…”
”True. ”
”Do i drop the case Sir?”
”Jaime , his orders you will follow. and the
reports from Miss Alexander too, his hand
prints she mentioned?”
”It’s the same, he claims they were fabricated”
Salim nods and then turns to leave , he pauses
”Whatever the case Sir, i would beef up
securities around you and your family. Just for
precaution. Jaime insists”
Jacob nods. Salim excuses himself.
Jacob is worried.
*
Jaime is driving into the Heritage company
complex when he meets Salim leaving. Salim
stops and then gets down. They have a brief
talk.
Jaime is not pleased with the news he gets
from Salim.
”Sir, we cannot hold him down or even continue
to keep a cop on his tail, we are violating his
privacy and rights”
”It is not possible that Steve would have
fabricated the facts. Okay the forensics report,
what if we hold him on that? His finger prints
were there”
”Yes, but it is same, no landing evidence to
show where theses were gotten. There is no
case. I told your father same thing”
Jaime curses.
”We would have to drop the investigation Sir,
before he sues us for damages on wrongful
accusation”
Jaime nods, Salim made to leave ”Salim, i
nee-d to know who Jimmy has been spending
his time with, can i be able to get that
atleast?”
”Why?”
”I believe or was made to believe he is up to
something”
”We can try Sir. How is she?”
”Good. The Prisoner?”
”Lockdown. Is he getting a trail?”
”As much as i wouldn’t want him to, he would
get one. But he isn’t going Scot free. The judge
has been contacted to set a date for his trail”
”He can’t , he had a gun, he shot, plus he was
the one who attacked her, No judge would
ignore the evidence.”
”Good. He should begin paying for his crimes
already”
Salim nods leaving. Jaime makes his way into
the building.
He had managed to set up ten more
communities to partake in his project within a
day. He was feeling fulfilled.
He hasn’t seen Jimmy since he won, he
wonders his state of mind. But he had made
up his mind not to continue letting him take
control of his own life. He was dead sure
those evidence were real, but hopefully,
whatever Jimmy is planning, he hopes there is
a lope hole and he gets caught.
He gets into the elevator heading up to his
father’s office. He stops thinking of Jimmy.
He just spoke to his mother, she is in the
hospital with Alexander.
He smiled, his mother saw him this morning
and then she had said ”You look different
today Jaime”
He had laughed and then ki-ssed her chicks ”I
do? i wonder why” he says hu-gging her and
putting her in the car.
”Wanna share with your mother?”
”Nope!” he is laughing ”You girls have fun” he
taps the car and watches it fade away
There was no way he was going to admit to his
mother that she was right, that he may have
just fallen for Alexander. How the hell that
happened was still lost to him.
When he ki-ssed her again yesterday, he got
home and couldn’t stop thinking about her,
infact he hadn’t slept. He kept on pacing the
length of his room.
Tinny-B seemed to be in a weird happy mood
and asking him weird questions about love and
stuff. By this morning he had bundled her into
a car and then given Adam is card to take her
wherever she wanted. Once they left he began
to laugh.
Oh Jaime locksiwre, Alexander had really
messed up his head.
He steps out of the elevator, responding to a
few greetings.
Now today, half of the day he had her in his
mind. How can he fall for a woman like that is
beneath him, but…love happens in the most
strangest of places and from the most
unlikeliest of people, according to his mother,
and she was right.
But, he was taking his time to let it all sink in.
He want to tell Alexander just yet
She nee-ds to get well, then…
infact, he was thrilled that she gets to leave
the hospital today. And he saying that she
wasn’t going to leave his sight was a fact. He
would just have quick meeting with his father
and the broad of directors for their
commissioning out of state and then he would
rush down to get her from the hospital.
”Father?” He opens his door and walks in
”Come in, before they all get here i nee-d to
talk to you. Salim-”
”Yes, he met me..”
”You believe those facts are real, about
Jimmy?” He nee-ded to be sure they were not
just throwing Jimmy un-der the bus. He was
his son, if he was innocent then he would
ensure all charges are cleared, but if he wasn’t
then… but he nee-ded Jaime to be sure.
”Yes father, and Steve must have died from it”
Jacobs sighs standing up ”I do not know what
to believe and -”
”Salim would drop the case father” Jaime
walks to him ”I know nit’s ha-rd, he is your son,
and i un-derstand all you feel”
”You both are my sons, and i won’t let one
chose to ruin the lives of people who care for
him. ”
Jaime nods ”There is no evidence, there is no
case, the court would rule that as
inconsequential. ”
Jacob nods ”What now?”
”What now is that you, mother..is not my
priority so i would ensure you both are kept
safe, and even though i have nothing on
Jimmy, it does not mean i would lose guard
where he is, infact i had Salim beef up
securities”
Jacob is sad ”I would never imagine that i
would be protected from my own son” his
voice is thick with emotion, Jaime says
nothing but places a hand on his shoulders.
A knock sounds on the door , Jacob
straightens up ”You know since there is none,
he would be reinstated as a board member
since he became second place to you”
Jaime nods ”Don’t worry father, i have no
intention to make it ha-rd for him”
They turn, everyone begin to walk in one by
one, Jimmy is the last to walk in, following
behind Christine and her mother.
”Shall we?” Jaime walks to another door,
opens it and the ushers everyone into another
room, he takes a seat, everyone is seated on a
long trail of seats, his father takes his, at he
right side of Jaime.
Jimmy hides a scroll on his face, but when he
stares at his brother he had a cold smile.
Enjoy that seat while it lasts brother, in few
days, a new king would ascend.
