He might be rich, but his major aim was to punish those who would take his servitude for granted.The head of the round table, Mr. Alex stepped forward and had a smirk on his face. It was apparent that he was a man up to several mischief."I call you all here because as of now, our family has severed ties with the Ross corporation." While there were several murmurs amongst the members, Leo couldn't help but wonder what Ross had done for the family to break ties away from."Having laid that information out, today I want to introduce you all to our new chef." Mr. Alex signaled at him to step forward and the moment Leo came close to him, he pushed the lad away surprisingly. ,"I did say you should step forward, but I didn't say that you should come and rub me.." he said with disgust written all over his face."He will be our chef, they call him Leo and I want eve

Mr. Alex was engrossed in his paper, when he heard a knock on the door. He looked up to see Erasmus stomping his feet on the ground as he approached his direction."Why are you overworked Erasmus?" Alex asked."That new chef of yours is and idiot. He watched as Mia insulted me today and I think he must have poisoned her heart to make her act rude." Alex closed his book and looked at his brother for a second."Do you really think Mia would be silly to listen to that chef? I know Mia very well and I don't think she said any of that due to the chef's influence." He dragged a cup that was simply afar and placed it in his front."Mia has loud mouth and even though she gets silent most of the time, I cannot deny the fact that she can be rude." He pulled out a drink from the shelf and poured it into the cup."You don't have to worry about her anyways. I heard one of the suitors would soon arrive to request her hand in marriage and I cannot simply wait to give my blessings." Alex finished off

Mia was completely pissed staring at Alex and the rest of the family, who believed it was wise that I got married to the man seated here. "You know for someone who claims to own the bigfest technologies in this country, I believe your mouthstache says something else." The gasps amongst the family was audible and Mia noticed Erasmus fist folded in rage. "Mia, you would do well to hold your tongue, you cannot speak to our guest that way. That is absolutely stupid from you!" Alex cautioned. "Mr. Alex, it's obvious you haven't trained your daughter well...." Albert got up to his feet, adjusted his suit and it appeared that he would be leaving the room. "So I will help you train her." Mia didn't understand what he was saying, till he approached her and smack her heavily on the face. "What did you just do?" Mia asked favouring her face. "I did what your father should have done woman." He leaned close to Mia and placed his hands on her cheeks. "Listen to me young Mia, I am not like the

The brunette gave a loud keening cry, her second climax more sudden than the first. Then she promptly fell into a state of bliss that was accompanied by sleep at its heels. Leonard however, was alert, and he got up from the bed, his skin glistening with a sheen. Unbothered as he was, he prowled from the edge of the bed to the bathroom, jumping into the shower to rinse off the traces of sweat and sex on his body. Despite his leisurely pace however as he finished off, the gears in Leonard ’s mind were as always, constantly turning. Just as he was buttoning up his white shirt, there were two quick raps on the door. Leonard noticed the girl stir as he called for the person to enter, and he spared her a glance, her body exposed to the world for all to see. However he felt not a hint of empathy as one of his men walked in. The girl gasped in horror, and quickly fumbled for the covers in a long attempt to cover herself. Leonard paid her no attention, instead focusing on the man who gave

Her eyes opened swiftly as there was a bang loud in the air. Maria’s heart pounded in her chest as her vision focused and she came to the grim realization that there was a gun barrel pointed right in her face. “Get up,” she heard a gruff voice, and her eyes drifted to the owner of the hand that pointed the gun at her. It was a strange man that she had never met before. What was going on? She got up swiftly covering her chest with her bedsheet. She had been wearing only a rose colored satin nightgown to sleep. Maria’s eyes were fixed firmly on the man who was still aiming the gun at her. In her head lots of questions popped up that made her wonder if she had somehow entered the fucking twilight zone. Opening her mouth with the intent to ask the strange assailant what had brought this on, she jumped in fright as the man gestured to the door with the gun, circling her but thankfully keeping his distance. “Get walking now,” he ordered her and she scrambled to get her robe to at leas
Unexpected Rise of Leonard Storm Chapter 46
About an hour after she had locked eyes with that mysterious, dangerous looking man from the warehouse, Maria now sat atop a bed, feeling uncertain of the direction her life was going to take. She recalled the last moments before she was carried out by the same men that had pointed guns at her and her brother, and took her to this room. She didn’t even know where she was. “Keep her until I come,” she had heard the man - the men’s boss? - ordering them. “And don’t touch her. Not one hair on her fucking head.” It had to be the boss, because he looked like no other man she had ever seen in her life before, and the strip club had given her a lot of experiences when it came to trusting her gut instinct. That man… was dangerous. A predator. As soon as she was summarily shoved into the room and heard the door lock, Maria had been feeling a great sense of numbness. She still had no idea what she was doing in this situation; were it not for her damned stupid brother who dealt with these s

“Alright, let me get this straight to be sure I understand. You're saying Mr Leonard asked if you would like to be a co-lead in the ongoing Gartrich Project? As in the same multimillion dollar project our company is working on alongside Rutledge Fay Inc., which took him several months to pull off?”“Keep it down, Tracy. Someone might hear you.” Matilda looked around, tucking a loose strand of hair behind the back of her ear. “Yeah, Gatrich project, the same one Broadway Enterprise, the company's major business rival showed interest in,” Matilda said with a shrug, fetching a can of fruit juice from the dispenser. “Ain't no way you'd be thinking about accepting the offer, girl! That's a big catch! Co-leading? One more word about thinking through the offer and I'm gonna whoop your ass really hard.”Matilda rolled her eyes, walking past a couple of chattering employees, greeting one of them, Cathy, the assistant of Gary Simon, head of the Personnel department who stopped in her tracks at

He didn't utter a word, neither did he let her go, even as they moved past a bunch of employees who nodded slightly to his presence before continuing their work. They crossed the hall leading to Leonard's office and he slammed the door shut the moment they got in, trapping her with his presence. The warm glow of the sun which seeped into Leonard's office from his floor to ceiling window must have added to the heat erupting from her body because she was almost at burning point and the air condition in his office did nothing to placate her emotions.He crossed over to his mahogany desk, leaning against it with his butt, before pulling her in front of him. Without breaking eye contact with her, he rolled up his sleeves deftly, revealing strong muscles— an evidence of his daily morning workouts. Her lips parted in astonishment to the sight before her, especially as his muscles flexed on reflex and she gulped, unable to tear her gaze off them. Warmth enveloped her and her never-endings st

The tension in the air was palpable as Matilda prepared herself for what Leonard had in store for her. Richard 's eyes shone with a dangerous intensity, his intentions unclear but menacing. Matilda's mind raced with horrible possibilities, each more horrible than the last. She felt a shiver run down her spine as Richard 's laughter echoed in the dimly lit room. Despite her fears, Matilda remains defiant, refusing to show any sign of weakness in the face of Richard 's twisted desires. "I can do more than you imagine and make you hot!" Leonard smiled as he read the expression on Matilda's face. It's really fun teasing Matilda at the moment. Her lips trembled, hoping she wasn't thinking anything. "Are you making me hot?" Would it really roast me alive or burn a part of me? Matilda asked stupidly Although she is a stripper who must know a lot about the tactics of men, unfortunately she is a l

"How dare you?" Leonard roared like a lion as the champagne spilled over his dress and poured freely into his trousers. Matilda was shaking terribly as she searched for towels to clean Leonard clothes and shoes. He had just poured himself a glass of champagne. "I'm so terribly sorry! I was---sss" stammered Matilda , trying to finish her words when Leonard pulled her hair and picked her up. "You are here to pay your brother's debt, but you are clearly unable to do so! Leonard said in a very intimidating voice, letting the lumps fall on Maris's neck. "Please, I feel weak!" He had never felt this way in his entire life as he searched for ways to survive. He felt his strength leave him and let his body fall into Richard 's grip. Everyone's eyes in the VIP room widened. "This girl is really doomed," commented one of them and motioned for Leo

They'd been able to not only beat Broadway Enterprise's weakness but also strengthen theirs. "To say the least, I'm quite impressed with this proposal, and so is everyone here today, as such, we wouldn't have any other company partnering with us other than F and A. Congratulations, Richard and Matilda , your intelligence is meritorious. I see why you're a couple now," he added with a smile. "I'll have my lawyer get the agreement ready for you for your signature in the next 48 hours. Congratulations again."With that, Leonard left, and a few others commented about Matilda 's intelligence, and how lucky Richard was to have her by his side, one of whom was Ryan Porter."From the day I saw you at the party, I knew you were one intelligent woman. Congratulations, Matilda . Richard also, you got yourself a gem. If she weren't hooked with you, I might have stolen her away. Good luck with the project." Richard 's jaw hardened at Ryan's words. His heart sank also. R

"What are you doing, Richard ?" She asked the moment one hand cupped her face, while the other slid down the curve of her waist. Her question came out as a whisper, which surprised her. "Helping you relax around me. We can't go to the meeting with you looking like this.""Like how?"Richard leaned closer to her, bringing his lips to her ear and her body jolted as his hot breath fanned her skin. "Like a simple touch from me will send a wave of electricity through you. One simple touch, like this." The hand that was on her waist found her fingers and he intertwined his with hers, which were already clammy. Matilda shut her eyes in pleasure and pressed her lips in a firm line to prevent herself from making even the slightest sound. He buried his face in her neck, inhaling her inviting flowery scent. The impulse to trail his lips up her neck tugged at his heart, but he acted against it. Instead, he just stood there, registering her scent in his mind and trying to decipher w

Four months went by since that fateful evening, and Richard 's iciness had become even more noticeable. The unbearable emotional gap between us led me to detach from our dying relationship's toxic hold gradually. I kept track of the days until the contract would end. He already possessed the inheritance and the agreements. Our partnership was supposed to be over by now, but it isn't able to.In the meantime, Leonard and I had become even closer, reigniting the strong connection we had maintained since we were kids.

When my time with Leonard was up that evening, I chose to make a decision that could alter my future significantly. I summoned up my bravery and met his gaze, speaking with conviction.Leonard , I appreciate all that you've done. Would you mind giving me a lift?Fear was evident on Leonard 's face as he considered my request. "Are you certain, keeping in mind his possible reaction?" he inquired, worried about how his words may come across.I let out a slow breath, calling upon my inner power. I am able to deal with Richard by myself. "It will all be okay."He nodded in agreement as his eyes softened with comprehension. "Okay, if you're certain." "I will transport you to your residence."While starting the car journey, Leonard grabbed the radio and switched it to a station he knew. The gentle tune of my preferred song enveloped the car, creating a mix of emotions that matched my inner turmoil.While the music played, a query escaped from my mouth. Leonard , when are we able to

I was frozen in shock, speechless, as Richard 's words lingered in the air like a thick mist. For years, we have been close friends, sharing jokes, secrets, and even playful flirting. However, his unexpected question left me speechless and confused. Is it impossible for him to ever have me? His question's consequences made me shudder.I felt a swirl of confusion in my head while attempting to understand his abrupt question. Before I had a chance to collect my thoughts and reply, Richard appeared to dismiss it, as though he hadn't just posed such a deep question to me. He proposed finishing the day by having ice cream at his house, trying to shift the conversation to a more cheerful subject.Declining his offer politely, I managed to force a faint smile and replied, "Thank you, Richard , but I believe I should leave."He nodded, a brief flicker of disappointment appearing on his face. Noticing the discomfort between us, he proposed to accompany me to the entrance of the amusement park

With a slightly trembling voice, she spoke up, my words now carrying a hint of confidence. "Leonard , I put on the lingerie like you requested." "Now, please enlighten me, what exactly do you desire from me?"While we glared at each other intensely, I silently vowed to control the situation according to my wants and limits. I had learned that real power comes from accepting my own vulnerability, even when things are uncertain.Leonard continued to hold on to his unfeeling attitude, remaining adamant in his penchant for mocking others.I felt a shiver down my back as his face became stern, his eyes narrowing with a touch of contempt. He clutched my hand tighter, his voice filled with scorn.Leonard mocked, saying, "I warned you it wouldn't look good on you," in a tone filled with bitterness. "You believed that wearing just a lingerie set could make me interested in you... turns out, it didn't work."I felt a wave of disappointment and hurt as my heart dropped, replacing the warmth I

She tried on the dresses one at a time, with each one more captivating than the previous one. The gentle materials hugged my body's natural contours, as intricate elements shimmered in the light, producing a stunning exhibition. I spun around and looked at myself in the mirror, wishing to see a hint of love in Leonard 's gaze. However, his calm facial expression stayed unchanged as he stood just outside the fitting room, serving as a constant indication of his emotional disconnection.I put on a different dress and gazed at myself in the mirror once more. While fixing my appearance, I noticed Leonard 's gaze in the mirror. His eyes held a gentleness, showing a hint of kindness that was previously absent. The teasing and coldness had become gentler, giving way to a more tender emotion.Leonard spoke at last, his voice lacking any enthusiasm as he commented, "You appear pleasant." "Perhaps this one is overly glittery," he said, pointing to a dress decorated with detailed beadwork
