Chapter 16
Chapter title: Make her stay.

Daniel released his lips from Genevieve's, resting his forehead against hers as they panted heavily. His dark eyes were clouded with desire as he held her head softly.

He sighed "let's take you back" he whispered, his breath fanning her lips. It took him a lot of self-control not to take her right there. He stared into her beautiful eyes, seeing a myriad of emotions, ranging from embarrassment to nervousness. She flushed, looking away.

He stood up, then picked her up bridal style, not forgetting to grab her jacket and flats. She gasped, her heart thumping. She wrapped her hands around his neck as he adjusted her tightly. They stared at each other intently as he slowly walked to his suite. She rested her head on his shoulder, inhaling his scent as she snuggled closer. She suddenly felt safe. He dropped her carefully on the bed, scared she might break. He smiled, seeing her eyes slightly closed and immediately took the quilt and covered her. He sat gently on the bed as he studied her closely. He could see her left cheek which was slightly bruised. Anger surged through his entire body as he clenched his fists. He should have killed the bastard when he got the chance! He stood up, rummaging through his cabinet, he got out an ointment and quickly applied it on her cheek to prevent it from swelling. She flinched a bit but soon relaxed and returned to sleep.

He chuckled, then kissed her on the forehead, before advancing to the door and closing it behind him when his uncle came up to him.

"How's she doing?" Mr. James Savage inquired.

"She's asleep now. What did you do with that Bastard?" Daniel gritted out the last part.

"Don't worry about him, Daniel. He's the court's problem now. Do you know that he's been charged with multiple cases of rape and assaults previously. I will make sure he doesn't repeat this again with anyone"

"What a shameless old man, I can't imagine what would have happened if I didn't arrive on time" Daniel clenched and unclenched his jaw, his eyes burning with rage.

Mr. Savage nodded then paused, staring at Daniel, a mischievous smile slither unto his lips as he raised his brows before saying..
"I'm happy you've finally found her. Make her stay, Daniel. It's a warning" his uncle instructed, walking away. Daniel stared at his retreating figure, wondering if he was that obvious.

* *

Daniel and Genevieve were both seated in his car, driving to her home. They left three days after the incident. His hotel had been fully established. He was getting positive feedbacks on his refurbished alcohol, all thanks to Genevieve's last minute's contribution and he needed to get back to his office in Lagos.

He would glance at Genevieve from time to time, only to see her looking straight ahead, an unreadable expression attached on her face. His hands itched to pull her close to him but he didn't want to scare her away. He noticed her slight distance. Her one word answers and the awkwardness surrounding them both was the top of the list.

Genevieve sat quietly, looking straight ahead. That night was the second time they kissed. She admits it was even better than the last time. But what did it matter? He never approached the topic neither did she. Why does he keep doing this to her? forgetting that she's a human with feelings. Were they a couple like the ice cream boy said? Or maybe it was only in her head.

She jolted away from her thoughts as the driver pulled over in her driveway. She got out quickly but was stopped by him, he held unto her wrist, making her feel the very familiar current passing through her entire body. She gaped at his hand, shifting her eyes to meet his, his eyes were burning with an intense feeling she couldn't decipher that made her shiver under her skin.

She stared at his lips as it opened slightly, then she heard him say "take the rest of the week off, okay?"

She nodded, not daring to speak. Her hands shook. Her mind racing with thoughts of them kissing again.

"Are you alright?" Daniel asked worried as he noticed her pale face.

"Yes" she whispered since she couldn't find her voice. Because if she did, she would be a trembling eel.

He surveyed her face, not convinced by her answer. He raised his free hand, then touched her forehead with his palm.

"You're burning up, Genevieve. You're not okay. Come on, let's get you inside" he protested.

"No! I'm okay, nothing serious. Pain killers will do" she rushed, getting out of the car with her luggage. Daniel followed.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Very" she laughed nervously then quickly got out the keys from under her doormat, inserted it and rushed in before he could say anything. She exhaled sharply as her heart pounded.

* *

Rumours speculated the whole building that the boss was in a serious relationship. It exceeded the building and entertainment newspapers and blogs carried it. It made the headlines. Every body keyed into it, except Genevieve, not one for entertainment gossips.

It was no doubt that Daniel Coker was one of African's finest and richest bachelors. Seeing an unrecognised girl with him aroused curiosity. 'Who's this mystery girl?'  Every man, woman, boy or girl wondered. Sofia was the first to make the accusations.

Genevieve just got to the Office. She sighed, arranging her table.
She noticed Sofia walking towards her office. Sofia's eyes unreadable as she walked. Genevieve rolled her eyes, placing her head on the table, waiting for the boss to arrive. Suddenly, a loud noise jerked her up. It was Sofia, she hit the desk with her fists. Genevieve stared at her in shock. Now Sofia's expression was readable, her eyes were blazing with fury??

"Now listen to me you little slut, you think you can just come here and capture the boss' attention. Now tell me you bitch, how many rounds?" she snarled accusingly.

"What are you talking about?" Genevieve got up, clearly confused.

"Shut up your gob of a mouth. See this, you spent barely a week with the boss and you've become the center of attraction" Sofia hissed, shoving her phone in Genevieve's eyes. Genevieve's rolled her eyes, staring at a picture of Daniel and herself?!!!

She gasped slightly. It was taken at the ice cream shop. 'dessert world'. Daniel was seen, grinning like a love sick puppy, staring at Genevieve. Whose face wasn't seen. Beside it was another picture of them outside the restaurant. Daniel's hands was wrapped around her waist and they were staring at each other passionately. It was very clear to a third party that they were in love. The emotions in his eyes and with the way he looked back at her was a solid proof. She couldn't help but thank God that her face wasn't visible. Below the pictures, were the words..

'Nigerian young billionaire, Daniel Coker, caught with his mystery girl'

Her eyes widened. News do spread fast "I don't understand-"

"You don't understand what? That you're a slut" Sofia scoffed, vigorously eyeing Genevieve.

"Don't you dare call me a slut, how sure are you that the girl is me huh? Wait, wait. You think I don't know how you've gone all the way just to seduce Mr. Daniel. So shameless" Genevieve hissed. She knew that few weeks ago, Tope even confirmed it being true. Genevieve wanted to take back those words but it was already too late.

"You little witch!" Sofia sneered, bringing her hand to slap Genevieve across the face. Genevieve closed her eyes, anticipating the slap but it didn't come, confused, she opened her left eye slowly. Daniel held unto Sofia's wrist tightly. Glaring at Sofia murderously. If looks could kill, Sofia's corpse would be eaten by worms living six feet under already. That was how hard Daniel Glower was. Sofia flinched, crying out in pain at his painful grip. He dropped her hand abruptly.

"Sofia, I want you to get the hell out of this building and never come back" he ordered. Sofia immediately fell on her knees crying. She held unto his legs, begging.

"Sir please, you can't do this. I've been working for the company over two years now. Please I beg you" she cried, shaking his legs. Genevieve felt a pang in her chest as she watched her. Feeling pity.

"You're fired, I won't be responsible for my actions if you don't leave here this minute" he said, removing her hands from his legs and turned, walking to his office.

"Oh God! I'm finished" Sofia cried, getting up.

"Sofia-" Genevieve started.

"You, it's all your fault" Sofia pointed an accusing finger at Genevieve.

"You started it Sofia, see now. Just wait. I'll be right back"

"Yeah, go do that since you're the only one who can tame him" Sofia huffed, placing her self on one of the couches.

Genevieve rolled her eyes, hitting at the door briefly, she turned the doorknob when she heard Daniel say "come in"

He was seated on his swivel chair, adjusting his tie.

"Er" she started shyly. This was definitely going to be difficult.

"If you're here to try to convince me on rehiring Sofia, then forget about it" he snapped immediately. Genevieve sighed, turning to go away but halted when she heard him say "or I could change my mind"

She turned to him, raising a brow suspiciously. Daniel stood up, wearing a cocky smirk as he mooched towards her and stopped in front of her.

"I could always go back on my words, Genevieve" he smiled, pulling a strand of her hair behind her ears. She gasped at the contact.

"Y-you W-will?" She managed to voice out, her legs shaky.

"Try me" he whispered in her ears then leaned down. Their lips were in front of each other and a quick movement could make them meet. He was about taking hers when they both dispersed, hearing a husky voice yell.

"What is going on here?!!"
