I watched her try to stay calm.
"Give me ten minutes, I'll be back". I said before going upstairs.
AUTHOR'S POV
With Raymond gone, living the over whelmed Tara behind. She poured some of the win into her glass. She drank the whole bottle so she could stay calm, or so she thought.
She started walking around as she stared at everything she saw. Her caught on a blue diamond vase. She walked to it as she stared at it. It was placed inside a transparent box made of glass. She placed her hand on it.
"Wow". She said in an amazed tone.
"Do you like it?" Raymond immediately asked and out of shock she turned around but brushed another vase with her hand which resulted it into falling down.
She gasped in shock.
"That was meant for my Grandmother, it was worth five million USD". He said as he came down the stairs.
"oh my God". She exclaimed. "Am so sorry ".
"Sorry?" He looked at her.
"I really am". She said before bending down to pick up the pieces on the floor.
"Stop ". He said and she looked at him. "Stand up, the maids will clean it tomorrow".
She looked more flushed and she was hiccuping so he came closer to her.
"Did you drink more of the wine?" He asked even though he already knew.
"I…" She was about lying but "Yes, am sorry ".
"Hmm…" He simply said. He went back to sit down and she just did the same.
"Can you make your offer?" She said and he just stared at her.
"I will make sure not to date anyone, kiss or have sex with anyone while we are doing this". He said sincerely.
"Why do you like me?" She immediately asked.
"I don't like you". He said bluntly. "I feel attracted to you".
"Oh…" She nodded and he noticed the wine had hit her hard. "I have to go home now".
"We aren't done talking yet". He said but she stood up anyway. She picked up her bag and spunned around but when she did, she stumbled backwards and fell down.
"Aaah…" She screamed in horror. She moved backwards with her butt. "What the hell is that!!? ".
" My pet". He went to the white wolf which sat at the entrance of the apartment. "Say hi, his name is Wrath".
She stood up with horror evident in her eyes.
"Go say hello to Tara, Wrath". Ray said and the Wolf stood up and began to strode towards Tara.
She began to strode backwards as the Wolf came after her and as soon as it came close to her she fell unconscious and Ray caught her on time.
"Really?" He laughed. He carried her upstairs to the guest room. He was about walking out of the room when he heard her phone ring and it came from her bag. He picked up the call.
"Tara where are you?" Tia said with a sharp voice.
"Tara's on her bed, asleep and shouldn't be disturbed at all cost". He compelled her through the phone.
"Okay". She said and he hung up on her.
He placed her phone back into her purse. He walked out of the room quietly. He went downstairs.
"Wrath, I told you to make her stay not make her go unconscious". Ray smiled.
He went to his study as he read through some documents. He got a phone call. He looked at the screen.
"What is it Cameroon?" He asked.
"Another death". He said as he continued to explain to Raymond what happened that night.
I started phone call, He decided to do some research on the past murders to see if you could find any clue.
Next morning Tara woke up from her slumber and was confused, finding herself in a room completely different from hers and she sat up but that's when she recollected everything that happened the last night with the wolf and everything. She immediately remembered that she was meant to be home when she was about getting out of the room, she met with Raymond who was standing outside her room with a cup of coffee.
"Good you're awake I thought I was going to wait a little while longer. Now let's get back to what we where talking about or are you having a hangover?" He smiled at her and she just stared at him in confusion.
"I want to go home". She simply said.
"You are really good at saying sorry but not a thank you". He chuckled. "Coffee?"
"I don't take coffee". She said.
"Your loss, whenever I make coffee, it turns out very nice". He bragged. "Let's finish our discussion now darling".
"I said I want to go home". She said sharply.
"No no no no, this is not how we do it Don't be too feisty, remember I have someone else to tame you". He smiled. "Follow me".
Tara stared at him in anger but she knew there wasnothing she could do than just to corporate and get over with this. The arrived in what seemed like his study, He sat on a couch and told her to sit. She chose to sit on the couch opposite him.
"Wait…did anything happen be.. between us?" She asked carefully.
"What do you mean?" He acted dumb.
"Um…did we…do it?" Sh asked again.
"Do what?" He asked.
"The thing ". She said furiously.
"What thing?" He asked again.
"That thing". She said.
"Speak clearly Ostara". He smirked.
"Did we…get intimate?". She asked with her brown hopeful eyes staring at him.
"Yes, we did". He said with a smile.
"You mean I…we…" She sighed in disappointment. "I am a shame to the woman race". She mummured but he still heard her.
"Because you had sex with me?" He asked.
"No, yes I mean no I mean yes it's just so confusing it's not necessarily you but You're the person". She stuttered.
"Nothing happened". He smiled amusingly.
