Chapter 9

"You smell heavenly. I slept on your side of your side of the bed because your pillow smells of you."

My eyes open slowly before opening completely. I look directly for Tom next to me. He's still sleeping. He looks like an angel, he looks so innocent. I got up to put on underwear and shorts. I'm so happy this morning, I feel like nothing can happen to me. I put on some hot water while I go back to my room. Tom had moved sideways and passed from my side, his nose in my pillow. I kneel in front of him and put one hand on his cheek. He growls and buries his head even deeper into the pillow.

-The water for tea is heating up.

I put my hands through his hair and put a few strands back in their place.

-I'm coming.

His husky voice make me smile. I go back into the kitchen and place cups on the counter with a tea bag inside them. Tom enters in his underwear when I'm pouring water into the cups. He comes to kiss my forehead with one hand on my waist.

-Morning, Darling.

I smile at him, my cup in my hands.

-We should get ready to go to the tower, we're going to be late.

-It's not a big deal to be late when you're the boss.

-Maybe, but I am not.

-It's valuable for the one who's with the boss too.

I look up at him.

-So it's official, I'm your girlfriend.

-I don't really like that word, but if you want to call yourself that, yes, you are.

I smile at him before getting up.

-Well, I'm going to go take a shower.

He put down his cup and got up.

-I'm coming with you.

-Not if I close the door first.

I then walk a little faster while giggling. I'm about to reach the knob when I'm pulled off the ground. I scream a little while laughing. Tom, hands around my waist, carries me to the shower. He turns on the shower while we are still dressed. His eyes soften and he puts his forehead on mine. At that moment we are just enjoying each other. Then we take turns taking off our clothes. He puts soap in his palm and rubs my back with it. It's a side of Tom that I didn't think I could see. I did the same thing by taking the opportunity to trail my hand on his chest and abs. He sights as I wrap my arms around his waist and put my head against his chest. Tom puts his chin on the top of my head while caressing my back, the water still running down on us.

-Tonight I'm going to the Millennium, I have to meet Harrison and my little brothers. You're coming.

-Your little brothers? And yes, of course.

-Sam and Harry, they're twins. We're only three years apart. It wasn't a question, darling.

I smile against his chest. I can stay like this for the rest of my life, in his arms.

-We should get ready and go to the tower.

-Good idea, I'll send a message to Jorge to bring me some clothes.

I get out of the shower and put a towel around me. After finishing preparing myself, I go back to the living room. Tom is there, wearing one of his usual suits. He's on the phone and seems upset.

-I don't care, I'm not paying you for nothing. Shoot him.

He blow and hangs up. I put my head on his back and kiss his shoulder.

-The job?

-You could say that. Are you ready?
-Yes, we can go now.

We go to the tower, when we enter the building, the noise stops and all eyes are on us. The boss and his assistant coming together can be confusing. If they knew. Tom's hand is on my lower back as we go in the elevator. When he arrives in his office, he sits down directly.

-I need to talk to you about a few things.

His head lifts up and his gaze rests on me.

-It's nothing serious, it's just to let you know that I have to go back to my university in a week. So I won't be able to be here full time anymore.

-I didn't know you were a college student.

-I study literature, so I can write books or maybe run a publishing house later.

Tom's lips stretche into a smile before he suddenly falls when he hears the door of his office open wide.

-I've already told you several times to hit before coming in!

-I'm sorry, sir, but it's important. There's a man downstairs asking for you.

Tom frowns before swearing and opening one of his drawers and pulling out a gun. He comes to me and puts one hand on my shoulder.

-Stay here. Don't come out until I'm back. Okay?

I nod and watch him leave. I can even hear him lock the door. What's going on?


Tom's POV

I secure my office where Armony is by locking the door and asking two of my guards to protect that door. I knew who was downstairs and what was waiting for me. I go down with the elevator and find an empty hall. Only Chloé is behind her desk, a gun is pointing at her. With a confident step, I go to Chris.

-Chris.

-You took your time, Tom.

-Let go Chloe, she didn't do anything.

He puts the gun down.

-We need to review our deal.

-I-.....

-We're going to your office.

-Of course.

I just hope Armony is hiding.
