    After she talked with her sister, Belle had a shower and decided to go to sleep, she was tired for some reason even if she didn’t do anything much with her day.


    Still sleeping, her phone rang, waking her up. She checked under the pillow where she now always kept it before she went to sleep every night.


    Turning to face the ceiling and sleepily taking the call without checking the name she heard a voice that made her smile;


    “Belle,” It was Ben.


    “Yeahhh.” She smiled more as she heard him call her name like he always did.


    “Were you asleep?” He asked when he noticed her voice seemed to be lower than usual like she just woke up from sleep.


    “What do you think?” She pushed all the hair that was disturbing her face backwards, lying back down afterwards.


    “I’m sorry I woke you up,” he started after checking his gold watch and seeing howte it was. He didn’t know it was past 12am when he decided to call her and It was obvious to him now that he had just woken her up. “I just felt like I needed to hear your voice to be able to fall asleep myself. I guess that makes me selfish.”


    Belle snorted to hisst sentence.


    “Where are you? At a hotel or in one of the apartments you stay at?”


    “I’m at the office, I just got off thest meeting from yesterday.” She heard him sigh deeply like he was tired. She remembered why he had to leave yesterday after they had lunch at the house he bought her, he had an urgent situation at the office that needed his attention. It was why she came back to Brie and Cherry.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    “You sound really tired.” She pointed out.


    “I am. Where are you, I want toe pick you up, I want to wake up by your side when the sun rises.”


    “….” Belle thought he was just saying that and didn’t mean it so she chuckled after a moment of brief silence. She then covered her mouth with her hands so she didn’t wake Brie or Cherry but she realized they weren’t in bed with her.


    “Belle?”


    “Yeah?” She sat up, still wondering why the two weren’t sleeping by her side.


    “Can Ie pick you up? Where are you, with your sister?”


    “What are you saying?” She had to ask after he repeated his questions again.”You can’t, don’te to pick me up.”


    “Why not?”


    “You know why. If youe get me and I spend the rest of the night with you, I will be so tired that I’ll sleep tillte. I don’t want to go to workte again.” Belleined. She couldn’t see him but a calm smile appeared on Ben’s face when she said that.


    “I can take care of that for you….”


    “No. No Ben. I don’t want Mrs Johnson having to be scared of me for the rest of the day after you take care of things for me.”


    “Alright.” She heard him say inly.


    “Alright?”


    “Mhmnn.” He was giving his sort of replies where she found it hard to depict his mood or expression.


    “Are you mad?” She opted to ask and heard him snort over the phone.


    “No.”


    “So you’re not? After I said no?” She wanted him to be angry that she wouldn’t spend the night with him but he just told her that he wasn’t. Her thoughts went back to what Brie said.


    ‘He’s not angry, does it mean he has options to rece me with?’ She asked herself in her thoughts.


    “No, I’m not.” He repeated calmly, making her worried.


    “Why are you not angry?”


    “Because I understand your point. You are right, If I pick you up, you are surely going to make it to workte again. Trust me, I n to fuck you till the moon sleeps and sunes, so you will surely bete, you made the right choice saying no.” He exined.


    “Oh.” She bit her lips, reying hisst sentence in her head.”Till the moon sleeps?” She asked, giggling naughtily.


    “Yes.” He replied knowing there was a smile on her face at the moment.


    “And till the sunes?”


    “Night till morning Belle.” His voice got more hoarse as he thought of her face while moaning to his thrusts now.


    “Are you trying to seduce me?” She asked him, giggling again.


    Ben chortled at her question.


    “You know I can do that, I’ll fuck you all night.”


    “You are trying to make me change my mind, aren’t you?” Her lower lip got redder as she bit it more, knowing he could really do what he was saying, he had done it before.


    “Not really. I am just telling you what would have happened tonight.”


    “It’s already morning,” she corrected him.”And besides, I thought you just epted to being tired?”


    “Not when you are involved. I cannot be too tired for you.” Belle wringed her toes when he said that, trying to keep calm because he was making her want him just over the phone.


    “Get some rest Ben.” She wanted to stop the call before she changed her mind about himing to get her.


    “You want to end the call, you are scared you will end up changing your mind?” He told her exactly what her reason for saying what she just said was.


    ‘How does he know that?!!!’ She thought to herself.


    “No?” She lied but heard his chortle. He knew she just lied.


    “Goodnight,” he said to free her.


    “Goodnight Ben.” Ben hung up when he heard her her wish him back.


    “O my goodness Belle.” She whispered to herself when he ended the call with her. This man was making her feel different, he was making her do things she wouldn’t do for anyone.


    She hated phonecallsing in when she was sleeping or about to sleep or even when she was resting and needed a time to herself. It was why she got irritated when Nathan called earlier but she just spoke for prolonged minutes with Ben after it was past twelve in the morning. He disturbed her sleep and she was okay with it.
