Chapter 22 - Mine (II)

Freya stood at the door with the first aid box in her hand unblinking as she watched the sight before her. Oren was pulling off his hoodie and clothes, revealing his bare chest and back. When did he get six of those abs and why was his skin looking delicious! Freya drolled.. Dylan couldn't even come close! He used to but now he was too lazy to go to the gym and just keeps getting fatter. But... Oren... God! He now had that lean athletic build that was very sexy, with his full hair that always asked for one to run their hands through them or better still grab a handful. She remembered when she used to do just that when ever she kissed him and she did it all the time! He always gave her butterflies, always shy and she would always show him off, dragging that hoodie that always covered his face off and afterwards she'd sneak him into an empty corner and kiss the hell out of him. It was addicting! The outline of his waist line was visible as his pants got lower. Freya gripped the handles of the box tighter as she swallowed. She remembered that they never had sex, not once. Although she wanted to but she respected his decision to stay chaste till marriage. She didn't mind cos she was convinced that he'd marry her but...

Just then Oren turned around and saw two pair of eyes starring at him, scaring him in the process. He moved back immediately but on realization on who it was, he quickly covered his chest cos he knew that look on her face and he just didn't want trouble cos everything that comes with her brings trouble.

Freya 's mind was spinning. She wanted to yank off that cloth on him but she knew better. Another thought came to her mind, what if she got pregnant.... by him.... things could work out! She'd get Dylan to sign everything to the child, there by giving it back to Oren, but she knew she'd have to force herself on him for it to work cos she knew, he'd never agree.

Freya took a step closer to him but he took two steps back. This attitude hurt her but she understood even though she didn't care.

"I came to check on your wounds but it seems you won't let me touch you. So here and be careful next time". And with that she left without turning back cos she knew if she did, she won't be able leave again.

Oren stared at the first aid box but didn't touch it. Instead, he went to lock the door and went into the shower and there he cried... While the water poured on him.

A month later, the household had a visitor... An interesting visitor... Lady Persephone. Her presence hard and impossible to miss with a striking long white hair which fell down her shoulders and back till they made a stop at her ass. She was a master piece! Beautiful was an understatement and when she spoke she commanded attention.

In a suit with her cleavage out and tattoos spread all over them. A cigarette lit on her lips as she tied up her hair and sat like she owned the place. She was present with the family lawyer. A bored expression on her intimidating face as she sat with everyone's attention on her. The family lawyer, Mr. Fred called for a meeting with the whole family. Everyone was present except Oren. Freya was not ok with it. She knew Dylan's mom had a hand in this.

"Where is Mr. Oren?"

"He's very busy and won't be able to make it. Isn't that so Dylan?"

But Dylan was lost, he was starring at Lady Persephone's cleavage as she smoked and didn't reply the mom. She had to tap him to bring him back and to cover up the embarrassment with a laugh. Freya rolled her eyes she was just thankful that she wasn't sitting with him but was on another couch and hopefully Oren would sit with her.

"Then am afraid this meeting won't be holding until his presence". Dylan's mom was clearly displeased but had no option. So she asked the maids to fetch him. All these didn't go unnoticed by lady Persephone but she was bored.

Just as he entered all eyes were on him... He had that about him but isn't even aware of it and the fact that he hated the attention was not helping at all. He was pleasing to the eyes, an eye candy!

"That's not boring... At least" she thought as she blew out the smoke from her mouth and from it stared at Oren who felt eyes on him and turned around to meet her eyes and for a brief while, the held eye contact, starring at each others eyes but he was the first to break it off cos he started to feel uncomfortable. Her gaze was quiet intense.

"Now we commence. My client Mr Smith when he was alive wrote down his will but first he really had a lot to say. So I'll go ahead and read it out.

My dear family, if this is been read it's obvious what had happened but I want you all to know that I sincerely love you all with..."

"Um... Excuse me Mr. Fred, can we skip that and you know... Get to the property part...".

Mr Fred looked up from the piece of paper he was reading and was able to read the room, every one wanted him to get to that part except two persons each with a different facial expression.
