CHAPTER 5

She walked in and locked the door.

Kathy came and asked, "So?"

She replied, "I'll take the job, but I'll have to stay at his house."

Kathy responded, "Now that's going to be awkward."

She responded to her, "I have no alternative but to go get the money and have one of his men keep an eye on the house in case somebody attempts to break in while I'm away."

Kathy responded, "Who the heck is this guy? Is he a billionaire or something? What the heck is all of this?"

Alayna responded, "I'm not sure, but I know you and Darla will be safe."

"Meanwhile, I'm not present."

Kathy said, "At the very least, let him send a hot bodyguard."

Alayna laughed as she said, "Yeah, once he's not as cold as the boss."

They both giggled as Alayna sat down to eat her food.

She washed the dishes and tidied up the kitchen after finishing her meal before going to the bathroom to shower.

She laid down after getting ready for bed, thinking about everything.

She said, "How could he be so carefree and behave like we didn't have sex in a public restroom?

"And now he wants me to work for him?

"This makes absolutely no sense!"

"Well, whatever it is, I need that money to get my sister into college and get our life in order.

She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

She turned as her thoughts drifted about that night.

She woke up the following morning and made breakfast and Darla's lunch.

Kathy got up and walked down to help her.

She asked, "So he's going to pick you up?"

Alayna responded, "I'm not sure."

Kathy smirked and said, "Hmm, I'm looking forward to seeing this hottie who banged my sister in the restroom."

Alayna chuckled, responding, "That makes me cringe!"

Kathy responded, "I'm dropping Darla off at school early because I want to go check out this bookshop and pick up a few things from the shopping mall."

Alayna nodded and walked to her room to grab a few items to take with her.

When she had done packing, she headed down to see Kathy take Darla to school.

Before sprinting to the door, Darla hugged her and said, "I will miss you, Alayna."

Alayna responded, "Oh! Sweetheart, I'll be back soon.

"Be nice to Kathy, or I won't bring you any gifts."

She nodded and dashed to Kathy, who was waiting at the door, ready to go.

A car parked in front of their yard as she opened the door.

Dominique appeared and asked Kathy, "Is your sister here?"

Kathy yelled for Alayna.

She dashed outside and paused when she spotted Dominique.

Kathy smirked and winked at her as she said, "I'll get going now.

"See ya, Alayna!"

As Dominique approached Alayna, she left with Darla.

He said, "Are you ready?"

She asked, "How did you know I live here?"

He smiled and said, "Who doesn't know where the famous street dancer lives in this neighborhood?"

She rolled her eyes and told him to wait while she went inside to get the bag.

She closed the door and hid the keys so Kathy could locate them.

She turned to him and said, "Let's go."

He grinned as she passed him on her way to the car.

They climbed into the car and drove to his house.

On the way, he said to her, "Here's a list of extra things you'll need to do."

She took the list and read it as she replied, "Laundry?

"What the heck do you think I look like?"

He responded, "What exactly does a maid do?"

She responded, "I'm not your blasted maid nor your slave."

He responded, "If you don't want to do this, please let me know so I may return you to your home."

"You're a dick," she said.

"Let me make one thing clear.

"While you're chatting to me, have respect because I'm not one of your street pals," he stated as he turned to face her.

She rolled her eyes and turned to look out the window.

After an hour, they arrived at a gate.

She said to herself, "What is this?"

Alayna's eyes widened as the gates opened and the vehicle drove in.

She was shocked to discover a large, luxurious house with glass walls and several parked vehicles in the compound.

As they exited the car, she looked around and asked him, "Are you a multi-billionaire?

"What is the cost of this house?"

He responded, "I am, unfortunately.

"My assets cost me around 4.6 billion dollars."

Her jaws dropped as she responded, "No fucking way!"

He responded, "I inherited a lot and made a lot of investments to make myself successful and happy.

"My family is tremendously wealthy."

She responded, "I don't know what to say; I didn't think a man like you would be this wealthy.

"You don't seem like it.

"I thought you must have lived in a penthouse or something."

He responded, "What do I seem like to you?"

She said, "A businessman, certainly, but a billionaire? Nope.

"I could have believed you owned that club, but I guess not."

He responded, "Yes, I own that club, and my dad owns the one where you performed."

Alayna stared at him, thinking, "I fucked a billionaire at his club?"

He smiled and said, "Come on, let me show you the inside."

She followed him to the entrance, where she removed her shoes before entering.

As she inquired, he turned around and smiled.

"What? I can't enter with my dirty boots."

He stepped aside and brought her bedroom slippers.

She collects it and puts it on, entering the house.

Her eyes widened as she said, "This is fucking huge."

He said to her, "You'll get used to it."

He took her luggage and proceeded to the stairs.

She said, "I can carry my stuff by myself."

He responded, "I don't want you tumbling down the stairs."

She rolled her eyes and followed him up the stairs.

They walked until he stopped in front of this room and said, "You'll be staying in here."

She opened the door and entered.

Her room was spacious, with a king-sized bed and a huge built-in closet with a large mirror.

He entered as she walked around checking.

He said to her, "There's also a bathroom over there."

"I have somewhere to be," he continued, "so let me show you around the home quickly."
