Desiree's POV
"I have been waiting for you all day, where have you been?" my mom asked me, I almost forgot that today is the birthday of my half-sister, yes half-sister.
My dad had a daughter who was two years older than me with another girl, his ex-girlfriend before he met my mom.
"Sorry mom…" I said with a smiley face.
"Hi, Nice to see you again, Desiree!" a woman with blonde hair and a cute halter dress approached me. It's Patricia, my half-sister.
"Patricia…" I uttered.
"Desiree…" She speaks in a honeyed voice, of course I cannot trust this half-sister of mine, she always has a way of making me annoyed and wants everyone to think that I'm always the bad girl. She raised her eyebrow at me, I saw my mom talking to her mother. Good thing my mom and her mom are such good friends, while I still have bad blood with this woman in front of me.
"You look tense, are you alright? So you are not greeting me with a happy birthday?" she said that with a sweet voice, yes she sounded like a sweet sister but I will never treat her like a sweet sister after what she has done to me before.
"Well, happy birthday?" I said and gave her a forced smile and my face switched to serious again, I looked around and saw Alexander on the gate. He was talking with one of my cousins. When I saw him, I wondered why he was going there again. Then I just realised he is here for my father.
"He looks cute, I think he wants me." Patricia said, I chuckled at her, "Don't be so sure, Patricia."
"What do you mean?" she asks me with a curious tone of voice, her eyebrow creased and her mouth is pouting.
I walk towards Alexander who is waiting for me to approach him, "What are you doing here?"
I ask him, he just stares at my face while he drinks the whiskey in his mouth, his adam apple moving and that makes me gulp because he is so attractive tonight.
"Well, I will give you two answers, one is to see you and two is that your dad invited me here." He said.
"So you are here because you wanted to see me?"
He cupped my face and his mouth touched my earlobe and he began to whisper to my ear seductively, "Yes, Desiree…it's been two days, I haven't seen you, so do you know that every part of your body makes me yearn for more? I miss your scent…"
I pulled gently from him, I don't want to shock anyone here in the house for acting so strange so I just smile at him like it doesn't affect me or like nothing happened.
"Do you want to go outside? Do you want to touch me?" I tease him but I'm not going to give him what he wants. I will give him a couple of slaps outside the house, he gives me a playful smile but my dad approaches us which makes me nervous, Oh yeah here's my dad with his formal attire.
"Hi, dad…" I said awkwardly, I chuckled like a fool in front of my dad.
"Hi, sweety…so you've met him already?"
"Uh, yeah, he was my former boss." I answered.
"Oh really?"
Alexander gazed at me, I think my father didn't know anything about me working for him before. "Yes, your daughter used to be my…" he paused and chuckled. I am sweating because I feel nervous. Is he trying to cornered me and humiliate me tonight? That's not going to happen.
I cleared my throat to have my dad's attention and my dad glanced at me, "I was his personal assistant, dad." I said.
"Oh that's great to hear, I think this is a good start to have you as my biggest investor because my daughter used to work for your company before." My dad uttered.
"Yes, thank you for being here…Mister Roberts, we really appreciate your presence, especially on my daughter's birthday."
"Really?!" he said as he looked at me and I said, "It's not my birthday…it's my half-sister."
I can see the disappointing look on his face, then my half-sister approached him, she introduced herself to him. "Hi, I'm Patrcia…I am so happy that I can finally meet you in person." she said happily and the fake and sweet smile on her face made me feel annoyed.
She kissed his cheek and even hugged him, what a flirting woman. My face shows everything that I'm disgusted by this woman and my mom saw me, she told me to keep smiling so I just smiled with my eyes irritated.
I walk outside, I keep walking so that I can find a spot in the backyard, the people are so noisy there, fake people and whatsoever.
I leaned against the blocks and I close my eyes for a minutes, I wanna feel how the wind touches my face until I can feel the wet and soft lips kissing my lips, I open my mouth and so my eyes to see who is this person kissing me, I hit him on the chest but he is strong,
"Why did you leave me there?" He said, his voice is baritone and a little bit of disappointment in his tone.
"Why are you kissing me?" I complain to him, he is still pinning my both hands on the blocks, "Because I want to kiss you, you are so smooth, so soft to touch and I wanna feel you again."
My eyes widened as I saw the desire in his eyes for wanting to kiss me again, "Not this time, Alexander…"
"If you don't want anyone to know our secret, you are coming with me…" he said and pulled me closer to him. I smell his sweet fragrance and his breath is heavy yet it sends shivers down my spine.
"So you are coming with me or not?"
