"You taste better"

"Can I show this to my friends at the office?" Rose asked Arthur as they left for work.

"Show it to everybody, especially those who have been making moves on you at work," He said.

"Arthur they all stopped when they found out about us, so why would I do that. They don't even dare come near me " she laughed.

"Still just to be sure just move swinging your hand so they can see it, okay "

Knowing he was jealous of his own employees Rose laughed.

Work went on, as usual, she stayed in the office doing hers and Arthur moving around to meet his business partners.

She took a nap after lunch, Arthur came back later seeing her asleep he called for Sean.

"Dad wants me to bring Vivian into the company. She told her father that she wanted a job in the company and I can't refuse since her father is one of our shareholders " Arthur explained to Sean.

Sean looking at Rose sleeping and said "Vivian has always been obsessed with you. The only reason she wants to come here is because of you, she might do something dangerous to Rose just to get you "

Arthur was worried about Rose, she might be hurt because of him. And no matter what Vivian had the right to come into the company.

"She starts tomorrow," he said

"WHAT ..that soon " Sean exclaimed.

Arthur nodded his head

"She seems prepared to destroy my relationship with Rose," Arthur said.

They both stared at her sleeping peacefully.

While they came back home, Arthur wanted to tell Rose about Vivian but felt uneasy just thinking about it.

She watched him massage her feet absentminded.

"Arthur is something wrong? " she asked

But he didn't respond still lost in thought.

She pulled away her feet from his hold and push him away, waking him up from his trance.

"What's wrong with you. You have been like this since we left work, did something happen?"She shouted.

" Sorry butterfly, am just thinking about an important meeting am having tomorrow " he lied.

She stared at his eyes. Whenever he lied he blinked twice.

Arthur subconsciously blinked twice proving that he was really lying. She didn't want to pressure him she moved out of the sitting room.

He followed her to the kitchen and watched her as she got her favorite yogurt from the fridge.

She silently opened the lid, licking off the yogurt on it.

Arthur smiled she had turned it into a habit of licking the lid whenever she opened her yogurt,

licking her lips too in the process.

But she always missed a spot when she didn't that, he moved where she was helping her get a spoon.

She starting consuming it in silence.

"Are you angry at me ?" he asked as he gazed at her eat. But she didn't answer but continued devouring her yogurt.

Arthur receiving no response, came closer to her carrying her on top of the kitchen counter. Placing his hands around her waist.

"Arthur now what are you doing? Don't interrupt me when am feeding my body, remember we are two now " she exclaimed

"I was only helping you get a seat, your feet might hurt. And I also want some yogurt " He said.

"I hate sharing this cause it's my favorite, you can get yours from the fridge. Now leave me alone " She pushed him away.

Arthur didn't move even when she pushed him away.

"Then let me have just a taste," he said.

He pulled her nearer, his tongue licked off the yogurt left on her lips.

she felt his warm tongue move around her lips, sending tingling sensations through her body. But he didn't stop on her lips, his tongue opened her lips the licking had now turned to kissing.

"It tastes delicious " he exclaimed as he left her lips.

Rose stared at him "What exactly tastes delicious, my lips and mouth or the yogurt ?" she asked.

Arthur kissed her again and said "You taste better "

Meaning her mouth and lips were better than the yogurt, Rose laughed.

Arthur joined in filling the kitchen with laughter.

Vivian had prepared to throw Rose out of Arthur's life. She drove her car to the company.

Today was her first day and she came ready.

Rose was eating kiwi fruits when Vivian entered Arthur's Office without even knocking.

Rose watched as she passed by her without a word to Arthur's desk.

"Morning Arthur, am reporting for work," she said.

Arthur always looked at her disgust.

She wore a pink office suit, her brown hair was tied into a bun, she was really smart, too smart

Rose thought.

"Go to Sean's office, he will show and tell you where to work, now please leave my office. You're making my fiance uncomfortable and next time please knock "

Rose heard him speak and pretended to be eating her fruits.

Vivian felt her anger boil but put on a plastic smile and left his office without a word.

"Why didn't you tell me about her working here?" Rose asked after Vivian left.

"I thought you would get angry. I tried to stop it but I couldn't since they own shares. " Arthur explained.

" I understand Arthur, but am not angry about her being her am just disappointed that you couldn't trust me to tell me, "Rose said leaving the office.

She knew something was bothering him yesterday, but couldn't find out.

She saw Vivian being lead to her new office. She was smart, beautiful, and rich.

Rose felt a little envious of her. She had everything but still cane to get the little she had got.

She left the company and called her brother, who later picked her up.

" Can you buy me some chocolates ?" she asked him.

"Do you think you are having too much of sweet snacks?" Ralph said.

But he later bought her some, she ate it all.

"What's wrong, your in a bad mood for a morning, " Ralph asked her.

"Its Arthur," she said

"You finally grew tired of him ?" Ralph exclaimed.

Rose laughed.

"No am not, he kept something from me "

Ralph had learned to like Arthur even when he didn't want to, so when he heard that he had kept secrets from his sister he wondered what really happened.

"He's been good to sister, no man would love you as he does. So if he kept a secret from you maybe it was for your own good. Don't get angry it bad for the baby " he said.

Rose thought about what her brother said and decided to go back to the company.

Ralph drove her back and told her to talk to Arthur.

She moved to his office but met Vivian.

"Look who it is, the bitch who snatches other people's belongings " Vivian spat out.

Rose turned and looked at her.

The staff watched them quietly

"Ohh my look who it is, the trash my fiancé threw out of our house " Rose smiled.

Vivian feeling humiliated yelled " Shut up bitch "

Rose acted like she was surprised and said "So you're calling your boss's fiance a bitch and a liar just because he rejected you for her, how pathetic " Rose finished saying and without letting her speak moved to Arthur's office.

The staff sneered at Vivian.

Arthur had been calling her phone but it was turned off. He saw her came back.

He hugged her and apologized for his mistake.

"Butterfly please don't act this way, I promise to never do it again " he pleaded.

"Just keep your promise," She said.

He agreed immediately then asked her where she was from, telling him about meeting her brother and Vivian.

"Well, that makes me less worried. You can protect yourself from her " Arthur commented.

"What did you think, that am going to act like a damsel in distress. I used to be the worst bully in school " she said.

Arthur laughed at her statement.
