The new house helps and guards were introduced to Abigail and she instantly got along with most of them, especially the ones that were assigned to her.
She felt shy remembering how she kissed Enoch in their presence, but from how they behaved professionally, pretending they saw nothing, she was able to stand in front of them as their new boss when Enoch introduce her.
Her first two weeks stay in Enoch house was welcoming and as peacefully as Enoch wonted it to be. Abigail used the time Enoch went out alone for some reason, to know and socialize with the people around her, and that got her a good place in the heart of the maids and many of the guards.
Enoch took the opportunity to show Abigail around his house to let her feel welcome. He took her places like his study room, his beautiful flowers garden and even his secret room, which he made for just himself and his future wife.
Enoch had promised himself to let only the woman he'll marry be in that room and even he himself didn't go in there often. He took his time in making sure Abigail's stay in his house was an existing one, and on his free time, he'll mostly take her out for dinner or let them visit both their families.
Abigail was happy staying with Enoch and had not much to worry about, not even the court case. Things were going well with the case and all she needed was to wait for her turn to face her old friend and her coworker.
Thanks to Enoch, all the evidence she needed was almost intact, except for one person Enoch needed to get his hands on, Easter. She was the main reason behind the attempt rape and murder of Abigail, and also a relative of the dead man, Hanson.
Enoch was busy on his laptop, gathering all the information that will be needed for the court case, and Abigail was seated beside him in his fluffy sofa, playing mobile game on Enoch's phone.
It was pass three in the evening and the maids had already served the evening meal for the day, after which the senior maid went to inform them both about it. Due to how busy Enoch was, non of what the maid said got to him, so Abigail taped on his shoulders to inform him after dismissing the maid.
Just when Enoch turn to listen to what Abigail had to tell him, his phone which Abigail was using earlier started ringing. They both checked the caller id and it was a call from Enoch's office, so he harried to answer the call, not knowing what it might be about.
"Talk to me James, what happened" It was as if Enoch was already expecting something to happen, yet he needed to asked his personal assistant to know.
"Sir, please there's a problem. I just received a notification that, half the shares of the company has been sold out to an unknown person. All that is left is the shares you and your family holds. Should any of your family members sell his or hers, your company would be gone." James announced.
For a while, Enoch stayed on the phone without a word, all he did was to think as he kept clinging his fist. Abigail noticed his hard fist and held on to it, and as if to ask him to calm himself down, his heart calmed and he could think properly again.
"Fine out who's buying them and report to me soon, and make sure if anyone wants to sell his or hers, you'll be the one to buy it, at any cost." Enoch said to the one on the phone and just ended the call.
"For you, am willing to go through anything." He said as he stood and drag Abigail along in a hug which got her worried.
"What happened." Worriedly, Abigail asked, more like a whipper to Enoch.
Enoch held on to her more closely to himself. He had left all his work in the hands of his men, knowing they were capable enough to handle everything, but for this rising issue, he had to be at work to handle it himself.
All that he was worried about was how to let Abigail know he'll be leaving her in the house for the next few days. He forced himself to break from the hug and carried Abigail upstairs.
Silently, Abigail watched as she was being taken to Enoch's bedroom, and her feet touched the floor of the room only when they were in front of the door to the secret room. This brought many thoughts to her head as she anticipated what was to come.
"Open." Enoch said simply to her, pointing to the door.
This brought confusion to Abigail's face. Yes, she knew the passcode to every single room in Enoch's house, which was either his date of birth or the bate they both first met, but not this one. It's passcode was still unknown to her, so how was she to open it. She lifted her fingers, ready to tap something.
"You know everything I can use as a code. but you have tried few, so just try another one and let see. Remember, you have just three chances before the security men gets here." Enoch said close to Abigail's ear and stood aside.
Abigail tried her first luck using Enoch's date of birth, which was wrong. Standing for a while, she thought of what Enoch said and used another one. She tapped seven numbers on the pad in front of her and it made a ding sound before the door open for her.
"Wow I did it." Abigail shouted as she jumped around like a happy kid. She only stopped jumping when she noticed how Enoch was looking at her in owe. Even though he was smiling, she could still feel worry behind that fake smile.
"What did you tap." Enoch asked, trying to sound happy, but his mind couldn't get off what his assistant told him.
"I just tapped my name, but in numbers. Like how we were thought in the service to read and write in numbers instead of words. ABIGAIL -1,2,9,7,1,9,12." She said.
" That's my smart girl." Enoch said and lead her to the room.
Even though Abigail had been in the room once, she felt as if it was her first time. She was still mesmerized by the bed in the room, which was the biggest she had ever seen. It had only fluffy blankets on it, and the pillows were so soft. The six set of pillow were arranged perfectly and at the celling opposite of the bed was a huge mirror.
A single picture of Enoch was hanged at the right side of the bed on the wall with non other. A bathroom at the left which everything in it could be seen through the glass that divided it from the room. At both sides of the bed was small towels and a half filled bowl of water.
I thought the first woman to be in this room would be my wife, but since you are here and you aren't my wife, I think I was wrong." Enoch said as he let his eyes roam the room he decorated with his own hands and had been the one Maintaining it since.
"So you did all this for you and her. Why didn't you marry her soon?" Abigail said with a hint of jealousy in her voice.
"She was never the one to be here, that's why I never marry her. I didn't want to break my promise either, but now am ready to do so for your sake." Enoch said as she hugged Abigail from behind.
"So why are we here? She asked.
" Even I don't know, but I feel like spending the rest of the day here with you." Enoch replied, still hugging her.
" As what, am not your wife you know?" Hopping Enoch might drop the bomb, she asked hopefully.
"I know you are not my wife yet, but I feel like you're the right person to be in this room and no one else." Enoch said as he held Abigail's shoulders and made her face him.
He might not know the weight of his words, but to Abigail, the word 'YET' meant a lot to her. She had hopes that sooner or later, she'll become the wife of the man she so love. Her face started heating up and her checks turn red.
"Ahhhhh.... mmmm...." Abigail moan out of shock as Enoch kissed her suddenly and dragged her into his embrace, bringing her out of her thought.
Not minding that the dress she was wearing cost a fortune, Enoch held Abigail's dress and ripped it off her body from the chest down to her knees. He was in a hurry, in a hurry to get all that was on his chest out.
He wanted to let Abigail know everything about him, both hidden and known once. He wanted her to know he can't go on keeping things from her, but not before a good sex to give him the vigor.
He ripped his shirt and pants in a rush and to Abigail's surprise, she was on the huge bed before she could think of what was happening. She had grown to love having sex with Enoch in her few weeks stay with him, but he had never seen him so aggressive to have her, he was always gentle with her.
She struggled to be on top of him, just so she could calm him a bit, but before she could even do so her hands were pin to the bed on top of her head. She looked into Enoch's eyes and all she could see was a man who wanted to vent out something.
No matter what it was, she was ready, she was ready to receive anything Enoch wanted to vent out, be it stress, worries or even anger. She kissed him and moved her waist to much his strength, but to no avail. He was much stronger, stronger than she had ever known him to be.
