"Am sorry, I…I didn't mean to intrude on your privacy" Ashely said stuttering."You should be sorry, that's none of your business, you have overstayed your welcome in my room, I want to sleep" Alan interjected, gesturing her out of his room.Ashely scurried out of his room feeling hurt and downcasted by his attitude."It's obvious he has an unpleasant past," Ashley thought as she walked into her room.While Alan on the other hand was struggling to sleep as he moved from one end of the bed to the other."Maybe I shouldn't have spoken to her in that manner," He thought as he sat up, he was never the type to feel any emotions towards any woman but he didn't understand why he was feeling sorry for the way he had spoken to her."You did the right thing, you shouldn't be sorry, don't be swayed, they are all cunning and evil," Another voice in his head said to him."Arg" Alan half screamed while falling back to his bed and struggling to sleep.The next morningBeep beep, the Alarm on the sid

" Yes, why do you both look surprised?" She asked scrutinizing them."No..nothing we didn't expect to have you sleep over" Alan stuttered."He never wants me around and he never calls me, what kind of a son is he?" She complained to Ashely while threatening to cry."Mom he is just surprised, he loves you he always speaks highly of you every time" Ashely tried convincing her."Yes Mom, how can you say that? I love you" Alan said thanking Ashely for saving him from his mom's banter."I will get the workers to prepare the guest room for you, babe please come with me," Alan said hurriedly dragging Ashely with him."You need to move into my room immediately" Alan half whispered as soon as they got to the hallway."Why? I love my room" Ashely asked, raising her brows at him."We are married and married couples should sleep in the same room, don't you get that we would blow the covers if we sleep separately" Alan explained getting pissed off."It slipped my mind, I will quickly move some of

"What the hell are you doing here?" Ashely yelled as she saw Alan while she tried so hard to cover her nakedness."I am sorry," Alan said hurriedly, rushing out of the bathroom.He completely forgot that Ashely was sharing the same room with him and she could have been in the bathroom.He was grateful for the glass door in his shower and the seam exuding from it even though he saw a glimpse of her goddess body, the image embedded in his memory."I don't understand why I am feeling nervous, it's not like I did anything," He thought.He was still envisioning what happened a while ago when the door opened revealing Ashley with a towel wrapped around her chest exposing a lot of her skin, he wondered how soft and flawless her skin was as he had the urge to touch it."You should have knocked or did you forget I am staying in your room" she mumbled. "I didn't know you were inside there," He said defensively.Ashely became cautious and embarrassed at the thought of Alan seeing her nakedness

"What makes you think I will sack someone just because you said I should?" The voice chuckled."I am not requesting, I am saying you should" Alan replied in a dangerously calm voice."Alan Anderson, this is my company and you can't tell me what to do. If you have a thing with someone in my company, sort it out with them, I was busy when you called. Have a good day" The voice said furiously and hung up the call."How dare he hang up on me, Malcolm!!" Alan fumed, clutching his phone tightly.While in Malcolm's office"I need the CCTV footage of the day of the last interview," Malcom said to the person over the phone."Who has Alan picked interest with?" He said, chuckling.After watching the CCTV footage of who Alan collided with on that day."The new employee, What has she done to Alan?" Malcom scoffed. He and Malcolm had a very unique relationship. They are between being friends and being enemies and unlike others Malcolm never succumbs to Alan's request."The place is too cold just

"Ohh…my goodness'" Ashely screamed as the lights in the living room turned on revealing a scared-faced Alan."I…I thought you were asleep" She stuttered, bowing her head slightly."That doesn't answer my question, I won't repeat myself. Where have you been?" Alan asked again, his jaw tightening in anger."Drea wanted to have dinner with me, it's been a long time since we hung out so I couldn't refuse," She said, wavering in fear."That's why you didn't deem it fit to put a call across to me, for goodness sake why do you have a cellphone if you can't make proper use of it?" He asked, looking furious."I…it slipped my mind, I am sorry I won't repeat it again." She said tears threatening to fall from her eyes."Listen very carefully to me, I ignored you this morning when you were running your mouth but right now you are going to quit that job whether you like it or not, as long as you are married to me for 2 years you belong to me, so you will live by my rules." Alan fumed, pointing his

"I…I am going back to my room, your mom is no longer here" Ashely said, turning back to the clothes that she was packing."I didn't ask you to leave," Alan said calmly, staring at her nervousness."I know you didn't ask me to leave but I also know you are not comfortable having me around in your room," Ashely said as she continued to fold the clothes inside her box."Or is it the other way round because from the look of things you seem to be the uncomfortable one here," Alan said in a rough voice walking closely to her." I…I am not uncomfortable, why would you think I am?" Ashely said hurriedly, turning towards him only to come face to face with his rigid body as Alan held her tightly in her waist."W…what are you doing, when did you get here?" Ashely yelled, shock written over her face at the closeness with Alan."You know, when you kissed me at the restaurant earlier today ever since then I have been craving for your lips, they are so soft," Alan said in an alluring tone as Ashely

"I…I didn't say anything" Ashely stuttered, trembling in fear."Listen I have been nice to you since today don't make me change, you will hate me" He warned coldly, clenching his fist." I am sorry, I didn't mean it that way" She mumbled, her stomach churning in anxiety.Alan stared at her for what felt like hours before turning back to his work, dismissing her with his hands.Ashely walked slowly to the bed, lying down as she tried to fight back her tears but they strolled down freely without permission."You are distracting me with your tears, if you want to cry go somewhere else and do that, otherwise keep it shut" He warned dangerously."I…I am sorry" She whispered, blinking her tears back as she struggled hard to sleep.After working for a while, Alan finally stood up from where he sat walking towards the bed. He watched Ashely as she slept, her face stained with drops of tears, he walked close to her, cleaning the tears making Ashely stir a little bit."If you had controlled you

Malcolm!!!" Alan yelled, clutching his phone tightly. He didn't even know how he was feeling at the moment having another man call his wife a beautiful woman."This is why I didn't want her working," Alan said, scolding himself mentally.Ashely was busy working and wrapping up work because it was almost time to get off from work when her phone rang."What does he want this time?" Ashely asked with a frown on her face, her heart skipping a bit."Hell.." " Where are you?" Alan asked loudly over the phone causing her ear to cringe and interrupting what she wanted to say. " Why are you asking?" Ashely asked, raising her brows." Don't answer my question with another question, where the fuck are you?" Alan shrieked over the phone."I am at work, where else would I be?" Ashely half whispered because she didn't want her colleagues to hear her banter with Alan over the phone. "Pack up your things, I am coming to get you" Alan commanded." Alan this is not my company where I just leave anyti

When their meal arrived they all dined and laughed together."Alan, so you did a secret marriage and I was expecting a huge wedding, '' Shelly said, feigning annoyance."Ashely didn't want an elaborate wedding, but we are having a wedding soon. Just a small one" Alan said while he chewed his steak."Ok that's good but girl why don't you want an elaborate wedding?" Shelly asked her, fully facing her."I don't like too much crowd that's why" Ashely replied forcing a smile."Okay fair enough," Shelly commented.After the dinner, they said goodbye and headed home."How is your mom? I forgot to ask," Alan asked her on their way home."She is getting better and she has been asking about you," She replied."I will go see her soon. '' He said calmly.They reached home and both of them headed to the room they both shared.Ashely slumped on the couch the moment she walked in while Alan headed to the bathroom for a shower.Ashely pulled her shoes and tried to get off from the clothes but couldn'
