38| Revenge

In the evening, she took a warm bath and changed into a simple light night gown. She freed her hair since it's night and it's not that long for tying. Just a twelve inches shoulder length. She ate lunch late before dinner time with her family in a new restaurant down the city so she's still full.

She phoned her brother, asking him about the place he prepared for them. Priyanka doesn't want inconveniences or member of family around her for now. She has to keep everything clean and neutral if she must do her duties well. She prohibited her family from living with her in the white house. The board did the provision of shelter for her family. They got them a luxurious mansion few miles away from the white house. They'll only be coming for visitations time to time since they understood the rules of the plan.

The president's resident is not a family house. "The place is good, kiddo." Purab chuckled on the other side of the call. "Mom loves it and Mitali won't stop taking selfies to show her old fans on her Instagram page."

Priyanka find his words funny that she laughed. "Please let her be. It's been a very long while since she had such an opportunity." The two siblings talked for a little while before calling it a night. Priyanka exhaled heavily. Today was a very good day for her and tomorrow is gonna be a big day for her too. She has so many duties to do and so many assignments to carry on. Tomorrow morning, she has a talkshow to go for and an afternoon interview with a famous blogger.

Just the time she was about to sleep, someone knocked on the door. Before she could say 'Come in' this person barged in boldly. "Justin? Are you sick or something?" She sat on the bed.

He didn't answer as he walk in and shut the door behind him. His eyes red and his body swollen from the beaten. She read in his mood 'Danger zone, keep off.'

Her fingers tremble on the bed and her heart pound so fast like he was gonna murder her or something. "What are you doing in my room? You shouldn't be here. This is not your quarter. As your president, I command you to...." She swallowed the rest of her words when he planted a deep kiss on her lips.

She was carried away in the kiss. She shouldn't allow him do this. She'll definitely lose focus of her duty. She broke the kiss and slapped him on the face. "Get out." She instructed him but he remained there. She could read the meter of his anger in his narrowed eyes.

She will fall for his innocent eyes if she keep looking. She turn her face away, still waiting for him to leave but he didn't. She reached for the house's DeskPhone to call the head of the bodyguards but he quickly grab hold of her hand, stopping her from doing what she wanted to. "Tell me you want to exact revenge on me, Priyanka." His voice low and deep but in her ears…..it was sexy.

She didn't deny it. She nodded vigorously without blinking her eyes from his. "This is just the beginning, Justin. I haven't even started yet."

"Tell me what's your gain and benefits in doing this to me will be and to my family, and to my friends." She saw the tears gathered in his eyes, mixed with dismay and pain. She let out a dirty laugh, "Have you forgotten what you all did to me? My father died because of your father." She tried not to be emotional now. "Your mom told the world who I were. She broke the promise. I went back to college to complete a semester I thought I was done for. You – you cheated on me! You even worsen the whole thing, Justin." She won't let her guard down by crying in front of him now.

She reached for the phone but he grabbed it out of her hand and threw it away. "I'm sorry for your loss, okay?" He wanted to explain things out with her but she wouldn't listen. "Just get out! Leave this instance." She shouted but he won't go.

The tears she had been trying to hold back came falling on her cheeks. She wanted to get off the bed but he held her waist and pulled her closer to himself. Her heart pounded fast in her chest like a bomb reading seconds for explosion. He was tearing up as much as she does too. He can't blame her for whatever she's doing now. It's in her power to do it but she shouldn't punish innocent people because of his deeds.

"This issue is between you and I. End it on me, stop dragging my friends, my cousin, my parents, my relatives and family members into this, I beg of you." He pleaded. She slapped his hands off her waist. "Take those filthy hands off me. The game just begun, just Incase you don't know. Your parents will enjoy the mosquito's treat until I decide when they'll leave."

His eyes narrowed because of her statements. He looked around, thinking of what to do. Maybe a little hot red thing might work on her, he guess. He took off his sleeve like a stripper boy ready to dance. Her eyes bug open at the sight of his bare upper toned body. It's been a very long time since she saw and touched this body of his.

She kept moving backwards until her back touched the headboard when he came leaning towards her. He stare into her eyes for quite some time before whispering something in her ear, "I know you've found out already that you weren't the only one who cheated. I cheated on you with Sienna but I don't love her. Our marriage was an arranged one because she said she's with child."

Then he gaze back into her eyes and wanted to capture her lips but she turned her face away before her body and soul gives in. "I don't care about your marital relationship, Justin." She told him. "Whatever happened between Travis and I….was an exchange for something. Something I was trying to explain to you but you didn't listen to…."

"I already knew." He interrupted her and she looked at him. He agreed again. "Your mom told me everything." She began to imagine. Her mom? "You never change, Justin. You're still a perfect liar. My mother was with me in prison all along. So where did you see her?"

"You think am talking bout your foster mom?" He scoffed, trying not to chuckled. Then he added, "Your biological mom appeared to me four weeks when we broke up. She told me everything, Priyanka and am deeply sorry for not understanding you."

Her mind, heart, soul and body gave in to his words. She has never seen or heard him apologize so serious like this before. He begged her to forgive him again but she's pretended to be headstrong. "Go to sleep, Justin. Am tired. Tomorrow, we have a lot to do. Good night." She lay on the bed, ignoring his presence.

For now, she don't want to talk about the past or her genetic parents. She just want to be her new self. Cruel, strict, serious, mature and stubbornly wicked. He sat there for few minutes, staring at her. He couldn't do a shit. He just wish he could give her a good night kiss. He wish he could…..hold her in his arms for one night. He wish...he could have her back in his life again.

Before he walked out the door, he heard her saying, "And Travis and I only did it twice. It wasn't oral so am still a virgin if you're very much curious to know."

He didn't say anything. He left. When he got back to his room, he laid facing the ceiling. His hands clasp on his stomach as he studies something in his mind. He checked his phone. Not a call or message from Sienna for four days now. He already texted her but she haven't replied yet. He called her and she won't pick up. It's not like he's very much concerned about her. He doesn't want to look like a bad husband not doing his duty. He called his gateman and he told him that she left with her luggages since morning and haven't returned. He assume she's off to see her parents for a surprise visit.

His eyes went to the little space on the bed. He has never lived an ordinary life talk much of sleeping on a little bed before. The room small, no TV, no radio, nothing. Just solitude. He misses her. He wish he was in the place of sharing that big bed with her. He wish he could still do a lot of things with her. If life permits him in her life again, he promise not to mess things up.
