CHAPTER FIVE ||| MEETING HIM

||*ADRIAN*||

"Where am I?

I asked trying to scan the unfamiliar environment I was in, I knew that the old man had done it again, he always does it, he will put me

out and will take over my whole consciousness and I was already used to it, he says we're entwined with each other and I have already accepted him as part of myself and soul even though we argue and fight every time but I'll like to think we have an understanding.

So when I woke up to an unfamiliar bed, I was surprised, the decorations in the room were very beautiful with a bit of ancient feel to it, the bedroom light was cosy with stars that kind of looked identical to cider if that makes any sense, strangely I wasn't scared of the place, I rather felt comfortable.

I quickly went for my cellphone to check if Frankie or anyone had called me, there were no calls, alas I expect too much, what was I thinking, I and Frankie only do the upfront for the camera, our relationship wasn't a sweet one.

I think that's one of the reasons Balsham hates Frankie so much, Balsham says Frankie is a fake and that he doesn't deserve to even stay an inch close to me and that I am reserved for someone special and great. blah blah blah.....

"I am married to Frankie, Balsham, Respect that if you're going to be coexisting inside my body."

"Fine, whatever you want but one day you'll understand,"

"Then until that day then Bal." I'll answer him.

I decided to explore the house I was, it wasn't dangerous I assumed at least not to me, I gently opened the front door and stepped out of the door, this place looked like a hallway it was so beautifully laid out with caramel marble-like designs, it wasn't our company design but I felt the place familiar.

I walked down the hall and along the way, I saw our trademark on one of the doors, it's my company building, which indicates whoever brought me here is possibly a client or customer then no need to be scared not like I was, but anyway, I tried opening a door but it was locked so I continued my walk and then I heard voices of laughter I followed that sound and went into what looked like a barroom, I went inside and saw two men, sitting across or rather opposite each other...

The man sitting across looks like he was built to exist only with the Goddess of beauty.. who am I deceiving, the Goddess of beauty will bow at his feet...

"Who are you people and what am I doing here in the middle of the night."

"OhhFuck"

I heard...

Then the man that was sitting opposite Man-God turned around to look at me and I saw Him...

What the fuck, I gaped,

My eyes have never withheld such heavenly sight before, Heaven that's exactly what I could use to describe him...

He was Pure Heaven, is he human? is it possible for a human to look like that, I couldn't stop gawking at him, it felt like he was snake poison spreading through my blood vessels, I was taking him in like air and then he stood up and my head went slow-mo,

Did he just fling his hair back, he didn't just sway his hips, did he, he was wearing a fuckin corset...

How can he be wearing a corset, his shirt was kind of loosened on the neck, his drapes his jawline was inviting me to come to take a lick.

I felt heat rise between my legs as he approaches me

"Calm down, Adrian"

Arggh, Adrian, did he just say my name, he knows my name, how did he know my name,

I wished he was the special one Balsham always talked about, but he couldn't be, right?

"Please take a seat, let's slowly explain what happened to you"

How the fuck was I suppose to move my legs, I just stood there staring at the way his lips seems to smirk each time he is talking...

"Let me help you to your seat,"

I saw him reaching his hands to hold me and that was all the motivation I needed to move, there is no way I would let him touch me am not sure I could handle myself before him if he laid his hands on me.

I quickly sat down and took the glass of water he offered me and gulped all of it, I didn't even realize I was this thirsty.

"Please can you explain this situation to me, Sir"

"I was going for a run-around and then I decided to take a rest in the woods, that's when I saw you laying down like you were passed out, I didn't know what to do so I decided to bring you here until you wake up."

"Ohh, thank you very much,"

I told him after he finished narrating the story of how I got to be in his house, that I was very appreciative of him.

"You helped me and I would love to pay you back, I don't like being indebted to people, is there anything you will like, Mr?

"Cassano, Viviano Cassano, it is alright, I don't want any compensation I just did what any good citizen would have done and I would have done it to anybody." He replied harshly.

What was the harsh tone about? I was being sincere and he felt offended by it, guess he is one of those people who can not take honest answers.

"But, I have to head back home, I am married and my husband must be worried and waiting for me,"

The next thing that happens had me jumping with fright, the growls that I heard from Balsham and the man in front of me were deafening.

Viviano growled...

Why did he growl though? I wondered.

Balsham's growling was understandable because he possibly finds Viviano attractive and he doesn't like Frankie, I mean I do not blame him, but Viviano growling too, surprised me, but I just ignored all the thoughts in my head.

"I thought you will like to rest the night I can drop you off in the morning."

Actually, I didn't have a problem with spending the night here, the truth is that I didn't trust myself and I wasn't about to risk it all for Mr Heaven Viviano Cassano here this night but will mean I cheated on Frankie with a stranger, I was not that kind of person, even though Frankie has been so distant from me lately, I could cheat on him.
