Chapter 16
**Dorothy's POV**
We were back from my family's house and it felt weird being back. The workload started and it was soon the normal regular meetings and what not.
I walked into my office to see Edward seated on my chair, swirling.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him and he looked at me, staring at every part of my body like he was waiting for it to grow an extra head.
"What are you doing here, Edward? And how did you get into the building?" I asked him, dropping my handbag on my desk.
"What do you mean how did I get into the building? I don't have any restraining order, sweetheart" He said and came towards me, causing me to move backwards.
"What do you want?" I asked him again, moving back till my back collided with my door.
"What I want is very simple. I want you to be my lover, but now, I see why that won't work. You are sleeping with Mr. Wort, aren't you?" He asked, twisting his head tauntingly.
I widen my eyes, as I felt a cold sweat down my spine. How does he know?
He doesn't, he's trying to pry information from you.
"No. He is married, remember?" I retorted back and stood infront of him and I saw his eyes widen, I'm sure he wasn't expecting that.
"Hmm…are you lying?" He asked, scanning me from head to toe.
"Why would I? Now…get out of my office " I told him, and attempted opening the door for him but he stopped me.
He moved my hands behind me and bent me over on my desk, he pressed himself closer to me and I felt his bulge.
Lord, it can't happen like this.
"Get…what the hell are you doing?" I asked, struggling to free my hands as I heard the jiggling of his belt.
He still didn't move, and I heard the zipper going down next.
Fuck this.
I removed my heels and used my feet to step on his calf forcefully, pushing him backwards and he let my hand go as he bent down to hold his calf.
"Fucking bitch" He said and charged at me, grabbing me by my hair. But I didn't give him the room, as I kneed him in between his legs, and he left my hair and crunched down, screaming.
My door opened forcefully and I saw both Lilan and Xavier rushing in.
"What is…" Xavier started but he paused when he saw Edward on the floor. His eyes scanned me and rested on my feet as I was on heel one leg and was barefoot on the other.
"Call security" He told Lilan and she dashed out. After a few minutes they were walking in.
"Take this man out, and please don't let him in here" Xavier told them, and this was the time Edward began regaining his footing.
"Xavier Wort, huh. You can have her, at least I have something of yours" Edward said scoffing as he was guided out of the building by the security men.
"What did he mean by that?" I asked Xavier, but he just stared at me.
"Leave us, Lilan" He said, not sparing Lilan a glance. She left us, after signalling me to meet up.
"What happened? Hmm, sweetheart" He said and held each side of my face.
"Well…nothing to worry about" I told him and he just stared at me, and claimed my lips.
He kissed me, our tongue fighting for dominance and his hands, igniting every fire in me.
"Xavier…stop" I told him, our lips still touching each other.
"What's wrong?" He asked, raising my face, for my eyes to meet his.
"Everything, Xavier. I'm…I know you are married but if this keeps happening, I'm going to be forced to ask what we are?" I told him, looking at him, searching his eyes for anything.
And I saw the realization hitting them, but behind the realization was some kind of….fear?
"I'm sorry, if I've put you in that kind of situation, but I want you, Dorothy. I've not felt like this before, and yes, an unfortunate event I'm married but…please, I'll sort that out, okay? Just…don't say you don't want this" He told me, I saw sincerity in his eyes but I couldn't accept it.
We've had sex three times now, and it was amazing but, he's not mine. I want someone that was mine and mine alone.
"I'm sorry, Xavier. But…this is one part I'm selfish in" I told him and walked past him, but he held me back.
"You don't feel the same way I feel? Or you do, but you are too morally bound to accept it" He asked me, which caused me to look at him.
I saw something flash across them, like he was being vulnerable right now, but as always, it was gone before I could confirm it. I always saw it in his eyes, anytime he kissed me.
Even when we had sex, I could swear that I heard him whisper 'I love you' but it was small that if disappeared with the wind.
"I have nothing to say to you, Xavier" I told him and looked away.
"Don't bother, you looking away was my answer" He said and let my hand go, and I walked to my shoe and wore it, and left my office.
I needed air, being in the same room with that man made me feel lustfully suffocated and it wasn't healthy.
At least not for my poor little coochie.
I walked down to the kitchen and I smelt cigarette coming from somewhere. I looked around but it looked like I was the only one there, then where was it coming from?
I soon heard footsteps from behind me and I turned to see Xavier coming towards me.
"I didn't know….are you smoking?" He asked, stopping in his track as he was about leaving.
"No. You smell it too? I thought my nose was broken" I muttered and walked towards the store door.
This door held different supplies, from foodatuffs to snacks, but it was pretty small, as it should be, as it was a kitchen table.
"It's coming from behind here" I whispered to Xavier and he walked towards me.
It was only him, Lilan and I that was on this floor so who was in here smoking? I asked myself as Xavier reached out to open the door.
"Diana?"
