Story of Nikki Lindsey

CHAPTER 32: NOT MY BOYFRIEND

I opened my eyes and found myself in someone's room. I tried to recall what happened last night as I was still in a daze. 

After realizing where I was and what I did last night, suddenly I sat up on the bed, and immediately I could feel pain in my entire body. 

Even to myself, I was embarrassed to recall anything. I was glad he was gone when I woke up, or else I wanted to shrink to the ground beneath Earth.

I glanced at my right side, where a floor-ceiling window displayed, and the light that comes from between the curtains is a morning light already.

I wonder what time it is now. My phone. Where did I put it last night? I hope Mama did not call earlier today. If she did, I would make an excuse. I bit my lower lip. I discern I have been lying to Mama ever since.

Slowly, I step down from the bed and grab the thin cover to wrap around my nakedness. I supported my body while slowly walking toward the nearby sofa. I found my phone placed on a coffee table along with my clothes and purse. There is a shopping bag which is named after sister Anna Lawrence's store.

There is also a piece of paper pasted telling me to wear the cloth inside the bag. I open it and take out the red dress. It was a high-neck long sleeve dress below my knee.

I reached my collarbone, the place he bit me, which was stinging until now. There is also another one in my back and my nape after the third time. But I can't remember what happened next. Did I fall asleep or lose consciousness? But I did feel his huge body collapsing above me while we chased our breaths. He even kissed my lips. Also, when does my blindfold loosen around my eyes?

I am uncertain of what happened after and if he's the one who took it. I felt too tired and needed a shower now. I could breathe in the strong scent of my body.

Hopefully, I get pregnant on our first attempt. But results will be possible for around two weeks and almost a month. So we have to do it over again.

I head to the bathroom, and I can appreciate the grandness of this room. I want to soak my aching body in hot water, but I don't have permission. I suit myself by taking a long shower, rubbing my body twice with the liquid bath soap. My arms slightly had some bruises from tying them last night, and I strangle as I try to reach out for something to hold on to.

I finished my shower and dried myself. I scanned my bare body, examining it entirely. There are traces of our lovemaking last night.

He seems to remember what he did, and he buys me a dress that will hide them all. He must order Miss Erika to get them.

I heave a furious sigh while putting on the red dress on my head. It was stretchable and fitted on me perfectly. As expected to the fabric was too soft to my skin, showing my curves.

Before I stepped out of the bedroom, I wandered my eyes to the room. I blushed after I stared at the bed, and I saw all the evidence of our intercourse last night. I wish I could wash the sheets myself. I wonder who his housemaid was who would clean the entire house later. Hoping she won't mind her employer's private life.

I step out of the room and head to the stairs. My hips are still aching, and my legs lack energy. I blushed once again when I remembered after his first erupts behind me; he put me lay on my back once again. I lifted both my legs, then holding them tightly while he thrusts endlessly until his second burst.

Thinking about it now made my steps wobble. I tighten my hold to the stairs railings not to fall.

"Hah…" I breathed and rubbed my lower back. Hoping my backbone won't distort before I get pregnant. If not for the soft bed, my hip definitely would break.

Now my stomach is growling. It seems to complain from last night's intense activities that drain me. Maybe I can have a glass of water before I head home.

I felt the phone vibrating. I checked the message, and it was from him, and it surprised me.

"There is food on the table. You can have breakfast before Erika drops you home."

His message was like; we are completely a stranger. But when we shared the same bed, he was also completely different.

I pursued a sad smile before I took the last step of the stairs. Heading to the dining table, I could see the food. Looking at them closer added to my hunger.

Did he order these foods from one of those restaurants in this building? Outsiders could dine into any of the FIVE restaurants in this building but have to make reservations one month before the date, and it cannot easily enter the premises, but those who were members and their approved guests.

Outsiders will receive a card three days before the date; if they have not canceled the reservation. It has to present to the reception before proceeding to the floor after verifying that the card was legit.

Hmm, the food was too tasty, but I remembered my supplements. I have to take them sooner. Without finishing the food, I put them away. With a hasty, I head to the entryway and wear my three inches stiletto. Because I am dead tired, it is hard to take a step. Next time, I won't wear this high again if I go home the very next day with body pain all over. 

Miss Erika instantly brought the car around once she saw me stepping out of the elevator. Silently, I sat beside her. It was too quiet, I am glad that my house is too close, and we arrived instantly without dealing with much traffic even in today's rush hours.

"Miss Lindsey, I will pick you up again next week," said Erika.

Shocked hearing this, I nod. I stepped out of the car and thanked her for dropping me home. I could see that she didn't like me but treated me with too much formality when we were both girls. I guess she was in her early 30s. She was beautiful in her short hair. She looks smart and classy in the way she carries her business attire.

I followed the car, and once it disappeared, I headed to the entrance when brother Chris met me halfway. He saw the car drop me.

I consider him one of my big brothers. One night, while it rains heavily, he comes to the store to pick me up as I haven't bought a car yet; then, he meets Mae. Instantly, they fall in love, and two years later, they are in a relationship. Soon, they will get married.

"Nikki? Did you stay at the hospital?"

"Good morning, brother Chris! Um, I met a friend last night, and since it was raining hard last night, I stayed overnight. My alcohol tolerance is low, and Chris knew it. Also, I had some wine."

Gosh. I felt like I had a hangover. When the wine thing enters my head to use as an excuse, I suddenly remember him and the taste of wine in his kisses.

I am losing my mind. I had to get a grip on myself while I was around the people who knew me very well. I don't want to get caught too soon.

"I see. You must call me to pick you up instead?"

I smiled. That's for sure. Chris never bothers by it. "Okay, I will remember next time to call you."

Chris gives me this curious look in his eyes. But he seems reluctant to ask me. "Nikki, isn't your boyfriend should send you home?"

My jaw dropped. Boyfriend? Can I consider that guy as my boyfriend? What to reply to him? Chris would stay suspicious if I didn't give him a valid reason or excuse.

"Who are you talking about, my boyfriend, brother Chris? Besides, it was just a girl's night out. Don't worry," I plaster a convincing smile on my face.

"The one with short hair. A Chinese, but has a pair of green eyed-color."

I want to pass out. Chris pointed out Theo. They meet once, and he remembers most of his assets. His profession, of course, is being an enforcement officer.

"Brother Chris! He is just a friend! What are you saying?" I laughed nervously, then swallowed. "He was a common friend of Doctor Ryan and the Lawrence Brothers. Besides, he already has a girlfriend."

I inhaled. My gaze passed Chris, and he followed where my eyes were looking.

Theo was standing behind brother Chris.
