Chapter 13

 Mia's pov

These past few days have been amazing. Octavius is so loving and caring towards me and I actually really like no! let me rephrase that I love it , but yesterday he seemed really depressed and the financial situation seems to really be getting to him. I really hope they solve the problem so he wouldn't always be lost in thought. As I woke up in the morning , it was too warm I figured it was become we were under a the sheets and he was tightly holding me down close to him and I really didn't mind because I love being in his arms as I feel safe and secure. I tried to move away his arms but each time I succeed to loosen up his arm, he pulls me closer and tighten his arms around me. I tried to stretch in his arms and my muscles ached deliciously especially down there after yesterday's activity. He moved in his sleep then suddenly was on top of me kissing my lips and neck then looked at me . "Good morning". I smiled and told him good morning then he kissed me again . He said he wasn't feeling like going to work today so suggested that he wanted to take me to an official date , on hearing that I was so excited and suggest we go to an amusement park at first he refused and said he hate the those places but after some pleading and pouting he agreed. But he said as I got ready he wanted to look over some business in the office and when he was done we could go.

I jumped and ran to the bathroom to get ready since I was very excited since as a kid I always dreamed of going to an amusement park but with my life situation it was very much impossible , after I got ready I went into his office and met him still working so I decided to go make some breakfast and his favorite bacon and pancakes with some peanut butter sandwich . After some time he came for breakfast and he had already showered as we ate breakfast I noticed he didn't touch the sandwiches, so I asked "hey! why aren't you eating the sandwiches come on its peanut butter jelly". he looked at me and explained that he was allergic to peanut. Geez! how did I not know that.

After breakfast he held my hand as we climbed into the car. He wasn't driving because the driver was driving us since he said he wanted to shower me with his attention today and I blushed so hard as it was so sweet of him.

We arrived at the amusement park as we cashed in for the tickets, I looked around so excited to go into the rides , Octavius held my hand as he was paying for the tickets then we went in. We climbed into different rides and it was so fun , I was screaming in all rides at the top of my lungs and clinging onto him as if life depended on it.

We took pictures but Octavius wasn't a really big fan of pictures since he would try to avoid the shot every time I was posing for a picture, but sometimes after begging and pouting he would agree.

As we passed to go to the other ride, one of the men called on to us. "excuse me sir! why don't you try to win a gift for the lady huh!". King looked at me then stepped forward toward the game. it was simple shoot and hit the target game where you would shoot at the targets. Octavius picked up on the guns after paying for game and lets day he looked kinda hot in his stance while holding the gun. Then he shoot at the target which he never missed even one , me being the girlfriend cheered him on till the end .

He won me a very big teddy bear white in color, it was so big and fluffy i loved it so I gave him a kiss and a thank you for the doll , we went on and had lunch then played other games which he won me other dolls which was super incredible since I liked stuffed toys.

The evening came in and we stopped at a diner and had dinner then headed home planning to spend more time to ourselves but apparently as we arrived at home Octavius got an urgent call that there was a fire at one of his warehouses so he kissed me and told me to sleep and not wait up for him. I was sad yeah! I know his work is important but i wanted to spend the night with him and cuddling close to him but all of these problem now.

I went ahead and shower then went on to sleep but I decided to sleep on his side of the bed so I could be wrapped up in his scent. I drifted off to sleep thinking about him.

I woke up from one of my nightmares breathing very hard as I cried while I searched the bed for him then realized that he wasn't here. I tried to calm down knowing that he wasn't back so I thought maybe this thing must have been really serious , then the nightmare knowing I slept without him beside me thats why the nightmares are back. I woke up and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water but as I was thinking then sound of the door opening and closing snapped me out of my thoughts . I went out of the kitchen only to meet a very exhausted Octavius before me. He looked really tired and exhausted, so I went to him and hugged him as he let out a sigh. he pulled me towards the stairs as we headed to our bedroom. I helped him out of his clothes as he went on ahead to take a shower and changed into some pants then jumped into bed pulling me close to his chest.

After sometime of silent I had to ask what happened and he said that there was a fire but it looked like it wasn't intended to damage but like to give a warning and it spooked me as my thought came to Leon knowing he must have caused the fire , so I asked if anyone was hurt or if they had caught the culprit who started the fire but he said nothing knowing he must have fell asleep since he was tired so I too drifted off to sleep.

We woke up then did our morning routine then we went to work. I headed to my office but not before he kissed me then I headed straight to my office as I sorted my files  I didn't notice the door opened and someone come in till when someone held my waist and kissed me. I smiled knowing it was him from his scent so I turned to look at him. He kissed me a long passionate kiss which lasted for a very long time but we had to pull away since I need to breath so did he.

He told me he was going out for a bit to check on the warehouse and would be back later, I nodded as told him it was okay. " don't try to miss me too much while am gone " which he earned a scoff from him telling him he wished. 

After he left but not before drowning me with kisses , I headed to his office to deposit some of the files I was done working on and to my surprise i heard a thud before coming in . Assuming maybe he forgot something and came back for it but when I came in a young was bending on the other side of Octavius' office table. I was confused to what he was doing over there so I moved to check but he must have heard my foot steps since he abruptly stood up to look at me. he had an angry annoyed expression and it was Brian but his expression changed when he saw it was me.

I asked what he was doing here but I quickly answered that he was here to deposit files from the financial department but dropped his pen so he was looking for it. At first I found it suspicious but I ignored my thoughts and told him she was here to do the same . He just smiled at me then quickly left while holding a file. 

"Hey! weren't you supposed to leave that file here " I asked him but he replied that he already had and what he was holding was his documents then he left. "That was weird for a second you could say he was hiding something" but I ignored those thoughts and did what I came to do then left.

Octavius' pov

After I left we headed towards the office but as we passed on the way I sited a jewelry shop and told the driver to pull over so I could go into the shop. As I came in the attendants came running toward and welcoming me into the shop as I came close to the counter I scanned through the necklaces looking for a perfect one. A male attendants approached me asking what i was looking for specifically . "Am looking for something small and simple but very elegant for my girlfriend". He nodded then later came back with various sets displaying them before me to look at them. And one caught my eye so I pointed to that and asked for a varieties of selection of rings but the attendant told me that the necklace came with a ring and when he brought it before me I knew it was the one and it was perfect for her.

So I took them both and payed for them but not before the attendant told me there quiet expensive which I scoffed and told him for the woman I loved it was all worth it.

I went back to the office but straight to her office but she was not there so I went to look for her and met her talking to some the worker where as when they saw me they excused themselves and left leaving her to wonder why they left all of a sudden.

I hugged her then pulled her close and kissed her telling her I was tired of staying in at work and why do we just go back home , which she nodded but had to get her things in the office so i told her she would meet me at the parking lot.

As I was heading to the parking lot my phone rang but the it was an unknown number so I went ahead and took it anyways. The voice on the other line made me clench my teeth as anger built itself in me. "Octavius my good friend how life been treating you huh!" he said as he laughed so I had to calm myself before answering "what do you want you pathetic excuse for a human","ooh! come lets not be quick on the insults ain't we good friends huh! ", "Listen Leon am not in the mood for a chitchat so get straight to the point". 

"listen king you got my property and have what is mine". then I laughed, "I have none of your filth so cut your crap". "careful, my sources tell me your even fucking the bitch ". I tensed as he mentioned her or pointed out that it was her and if on cue she appeared in front of me. "listen here Leon leave her the fuck alone and pray that I don't get my hands on you because if I do I would make you pay for all have done, i will make you suffer". he only laughed and said that I was already a step behind for what he was planning for me and I wont like it then he hung up.
