chapter 52

Toby p.o.v

Part of me feels guilty the way I said that when I told her that if she had a trust in me it would be better not to ask me questions.

Even if I want to tell her everything I still don't know how she would react to it. But I have decided to do it sooner than later.

I took her out to have some fun at the amusement park where I didn't have to pay for the entry fee because I had made a reservation the previous night.

The look on lisa's face showed how surprised she was when I held her hand as we entered the place.

There were many games and places to be as the place was so huge, there was a merry go round, horse riding, rollercoaster and many others.

I wanted to make it special for her and was planning to have dinner afterwards but she had a different plan herself.

She asked to go for shopping after we left the amusement park, she looked so beautiful as she got her head out of the window as the wind blew her hair.

After few minutes of driving, we came to the shopping mall and she took me to the shop where she looked around the place as she was busy looking for dresses.

I went to the other side and bought her a night gown which I had planned to surprise her with after leaving the club tonight.

After we shopped for an hour we went to the club by the time we reached there it was night.

We entered the place and lisa excused herself to go to the bathroom to change, she didn't let me see what she bought and refused to let me even take a look inside as well.

I guess she wanted to surprise me, I went to the bar to order some drinks as I waited for her to come.

As I took some sip of my drink, some girls appeared behind me and asked me to but them drinks which I did as they started asking me questions  which  I didn't bother to hear as I kept looking behind them to see when lisa would appear.

It didn't take long when I saw her coming out of the bathroom as she wore blue short dress with her  blonde hair laying on her left shoulder.

As she was walking towards me she bumped into some guy whose face I couldn't see.

I stood up from the stool bar and walked towards them as I looked at lisa whose face turned into both confused and shocked.

She then mentioned a name which made my blood boil up I quickly passed by the crowd as the people were busy dancing and enjoying themselves.

I listened to their conversation which I didn't expect to hear, he apologised to lisa from walking away from her and was trying to convince her to listen to him.

That's when I interfered and held her waist as I pulled her towards me. Which took her by surprise, I didn't want her to know everything from Mike as I knew he wanted to.

I snapped my fingers and two guards appeared to stop him, lisa couldn't believe what she heard so she quickly walked away from us.

I followed her from behind as she was quick to reach the exit, but she stopped and sat on a chair which was next to the door.

I took a bottle of water and gave it to her which she drank and took a long breath as though she was holding it for a long time.

I grabbed her hand and we walked back to the club but we went inside a room which was a soundproof. No one would be able to hear anything.

I motioned her to sit so that I could tell her everything from the start, it took her time to process about it but I knew it was for the best to know who she really was.

She was both angry and upset which I would be if I were in her shoes.

She didn't bother to talk again instead she left the room and I followed her from behind without saying anything.

She entered the limo and so did I, I texted my nanny and told her to cancel the dinner which I had planned earlier because of lisa's situation to which she did.

As we walked into the elevator, she still didn't talk and I knew she wanted to have time by herself.

Before we arrived at the penthouse, I had put my jacket her shoulder since it was about to rain heavily and she was also wearing a short dress as well.

As we reached the penthouse, she walked to the stairs and I didn't follow her I just sat on the couch and laid my head back as I thought about her.

She had every right to be mad ,scared and confused,  she was always alone ever since she grew up in the orphanage.

I used to check up on her even after we left our empire, but I couldn't hold on to the guilt so it was best for her to know now that she's going to be my other half.

After a few minutes of thinking I decided to go and check up on her to which she hadn't moved from where she was standing.

She was holding a night gown which I had bought for her today as she was busy at the mall.

She turned to me looking at me while holding it, I didn't expect that she would be happy about it despite knowing things about herself.

I couldn't resist her beauty and I didn't know what got into me so without wasting time I kissed her.

She was surprised but then kissed me back to which led us into bed and I ended up taking our clothes off.

Suddenly she pushed me away and she covered her body with the pillow I wasn't sure what made her feel insecure about her body so i tried to make her feel better.

As much as i wanted to make mine so bad I didn't want her to feel like I was taking advantage of the situation so I just kissed her and walked out.

I went to the bathroom to take a cold shower as I tried to fight my beast as it wanted me to take her but I was glad I managed to get control of him.

Lisa might have chosen to be with me but she still likes Mike as well and I don't think it would be wise to have her.

I wanted her to make her own decision to be with me or mike without being pressured.

Her aunt might have pursued her to make a quick decision but now I want her to make her own decision now that the mating season would happen in a week I hope she'll make her decision by then.

I walked out of the bathroom after an hour and was about to leave the room when she asked me to stay with her for the night.

I was glad that she still wanted me close even after telling her the truth almost everything.

"I know that you're worried and confused but I hope you'll soon find a way to accept your life now that you've found out everything " I said as I turned to look at her.

She didn't respond but just laid on her pillow as she looked at the window while it rains heavily.

I took a blanket and laid on the couch as I thought of what to do next, lisa might be confused with everything for now but I hope she'll find her path and destiny as she will be more surprised to what comes next.

The following morning, I made breakfast and lisa came down as she yawned and closed her mouth and eyes.

"How are you feeling now?" I asked as I poured a mango juice for her.

"As usual tired and headache " she replied as she drank the juice.

"I know that you're trying not to think about what I told you but it would be better to talk to veronica and hear her out" I said as I placed a plate of food in front of her.

"I don't think am ready to listen to anyone now am still in shock and finding out more it will bust my brain out" she said as she shook her head in disagreement.

"You have to lisa, it will be the only way to know what you're destined for please just listen to her will you?" I asked hopefully she would agree.

"Ok fine but I can't promise that I will do what she says am still not sure if I'll be able to trust her again" she pounded.

After we had breakfast the driver took us to the altiport where my jet was waiting.

I got out first to talk to the pilot, I look at the other side thinking lisa was standing with me but she wasn't so turn to see her still sitting inside the limo.

I walked to her and opened the door for her but she didn't move a muscle.

"Are you feeling alright?" I asked as I still held the door for her.

"To be honest am anxious to see her and know things about everything I...I don't think am ready for what is going to happen" she said as she shook her head.

"I know that but don't you think it's better than staying in the dark forever?" I asked her as I took her hand.

She then nodded and came out of the limo. Both the pilot and the seamstress were waiting for us to get in.

They both greeted us and we both sat down as the pilot informed us to take our seats.

We both sat down as lisa laid back and took a breath, I was happy that she was willing to do it knowing that she didn't want to leave so soon but it would be better for her own safety.

Now all I can do is to pray that she will do things the right way and I will do the same thing as well.

"I hope things will be better soon" she said as her eyes were still closed.
