A novel of passion's flame chapter 9
NORA MARTINS P.O.V
The bright sunlight streaming through the large curtains made me open my eyes. As I took in my surroundings,I remembered I was still in Mr Knights penthouse.
I sat up,My thoughts drifted back to what happened between Mr Knights and I;and I couldn't help the wide smile that played on my lips.
He liked when I called Him by his name and I felt my insides throb, I also like the way he says my name and the way he looks at me-Oh heavens! He's just so perfect.
He's attractive, Caring, Gentle, He's every woman's dream but sadly not mine. I was really grateful for what he's done for me so far,No one had ever been so concerned about me before except Beth but his was different.
He made me feel protected.... Thinking about him made me smile,I shouldn't be thinking about him like this but he keeps popping into my head every second.
Dismissing him from my thoughts,I stood up walking into the large bathroom and my jaw literally dropped.
Oh my gosh! Wow! The bathroom looked so modern and beautiful, I was excited to take a shower already.
Pulling off Mr Knights shirt,I walked back into the bathroom turning on the shower and moaned in delight as the warm water touched my skin.
*
About Twenty minutes later, I was finally done and I looked around for any towels but found none.
Jeez....now where's Mr Knights shirt?
"Oh my God!"I suddenly remembered, I had left it in the room.
What do I do!
What do I do?
The only option I had in mind was to go back into the room and take the shirt but what if someone walks in and see me NAKED.
How do I get out of this mess?. I took in a deep breath and was about to open the bathroom glass door when I heard a tiny voice.
"Nora!"I heard Lily call out again and I was about to respond to her when an embarrassing thought crossed my mind.
What if she was with Mr knights?
And Ladies and gentlemen Guess what; I was right!!!. "Nora,Are you in there?"Mr Knights knocked on the bathroom door and my heart raced rapidly against my chest.
Should I respond or not? What's the point of staying silent when they already know I'm in here.
He knocked again and this time it was out of urgency. "Nora I know you're in there,Do you need help?"
Taking a deep breath,I opened my mouth to respond. "Mr.... Alexander_"I corrected.
"Nora, Are you alright?"I heard Lily's concerned voice outside the door and my heart swelled.
"Yeah, I'm fine baby. I just need a little help"I replied, softly.
"Help? Did the shower stop working.... Should I come in?"
"No!"I let out a scream. "I-i mean no it's not about the shower,I need clothes"I mumble quietly, wondering if he even heard me cuz my voice was really low.
I felt like I was bothering him. "Oh, Give me a minute, I'll go get something for you to wear"He said,in a gentle voice and I felt my insides flutter at the sound of his voice.
Why am I feeling this way? I needed to see a doctor ASAP!
"Nora, Daddy went to get you his clothes. Are you cold?"
"No Lily, I'm perfectly fine and you?. How are you feeling?"I asked softly.
"Perfectly fine too!"She chirped. "I missed you so much"She said and that made me smile widely.
Gosh! My love for her kept increasing day by day. She's just the best!
"I missed you too baby. Hope you're feeling better now? Have you had breakfast?"
"I didn't want to but Tricia forced me to, Can I tell you a secret?"She whispered and I chuckled.
"Sure!"
"Her food tastes really bad"She whispered. "She made Pasta a few days ago with salad and it tasted horrible. Daddy said she made us grass and asked her never to cook again for us without the maids"She giggled and I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my lips.
It was wrong to laugh but damn... it was too funny.
"What's making you both laugh so much"I heard Mr Knights voice from outside the door and my Laughter died down.
Lily also stopped laughing. "Nothing daddy,Nora and I were just talking"
He only hummed in response and I heard his footsteps approaching the door. I opened the door, standing behind it while stretching out my hand and I took the clothes from him closing back the door.
I quickly wore the clothes he gave me and then looked at my reflection in the mirror.
The sweatpants I wore was very oversized that I had to tighten the ropes so it could be more tight around my waist and the dark shirt I was wearing was also baggy but it looked cute on me.
The clothes smelled like him and it made me very comfortable,I kinda like wearing his clothes. Should I be saying that? No!
Straightening my hair with my fingers,I looked at my reflection one more time before opening the bathroom there and there he was, Staring at me as soon as I stepped out.
His eyes locked with mine for a few seconds before they trailed down to my body and a tiny smile barely visible tugged on his lips.
"You look cute in daddy's clothes"Lily's tiny voice brought me back to reality and I Smiled at her.
"Thank you Alexander"
"You're always welcome"He responded, without looking away from me And I smiled.
I was about to ask him something when the door suddenly opened and His fiance Tricia walked in elegantly.
She looks gorgeous.
I felt Lily close to me as Tricia walked in and Mr Knights turned to her.
She kissed him on the lips while staring at me like she was trying to prove a point and I fought the urge to roll my eyes.
Not gonna lie..I didn't like seeing her kiss him in front of me like that but why? I had no right to be angry.
Almost immediately Mr Knights pulled away and she fake Smiled. "What are you doing here Tricia? I asked you to wait for me?"He said to her firmly.
"You were taking too long and now I know why"Her gaze sweeping over what I was wearing. "Why's she still here?"She said,Her tone dripping with venom.
Wow. She doesn't like me,Who cares! I don't like her either.
"Tricia, She's my Guest. Show some respect"Mr knights voice held so much authority and I held back a smile.
Shee looked away from me."We need to talk"She said frowning. "Alone"She added, glaring at me before walking out and Alexander followed.
Tricia is giving bad vibes but anyways Our girl Nora has Alex's attention already 😀🍷🍷
