    "Anthony I change my mind about going home or to the bar...." he spoke gently not to raise fear in


    them,"..... take my secretary to a hotel I wille and see youter"


    Well, she is always a secretary to him....


    "Mr sage what is going on?" Faye asked.


    "Bro what''s going on?" Anthony asked looking at Dan through the driver mirror.


    "Nothing, just do as I say". Anthony nodded, turning left.


    Another car stopped, he was abouting out when Faye held him.


    "Mr sage what is going on?" Her eyes begged for answers.


    "Why the sudden change of mind?"


    "You are not yet okay...." she gesture with her hand towards his bandage shoulder. "....Where are you


    going to?"


    "I don''t want to go to the hotel with Anthony.


    I.......... Want to go with you"


    "Faye...."his eyes bore into her '' just trust me okay?" his finger curled around her slender arms.


    "Anthony will take good care of you, something came up and I promised to Join you in an hour", Dan


    reluctantly decided to leave her for her safety.


    Dan knew it was not because she preferred hispany, that is why she wanted to go with him.


    He saw the difort in her towards Anthony even while they were discussing and the fear of what


    will happen to him while leaving them.


    Dan knew Anthony can be very sneaky with women, but he dare not try it with Faye. He trust his


    bestfriend.


    Reluctantly Faye nodded, the fear still in her eyes. She remained silent as she wholeheartedly trusted


    Dan and hope his one hour would be over soon.


    "Anthony'' don''t leave my secretary alone, stay with her till I return'' he instructed receiving a nod from


    his bestfriend.


    Iam just his secretary, that is all iam to him......


    She exhaled.

    '' I will be back before you know it" he turned to Faye with seriousness and assurance.


    He slipped out of the car and quickly hopped into his security vehicle waiting for him.


    As Anthony pulled away, Faye turned back looking at the back window of the car hating the increasing


    distance separating her and her boss.


    "Why did Dan not take me with him?


    "Why did he tell me to go to the hotel? With Anthony?


    "Why not her house? She wondered.


    She looked at Anthony and smiled nervously.


    When they got to Dan''s hotel, Anthony took her to dan suite, he showed her around, her bedroom


    and the adjourning door that led to Dan''s bedroom.


    He smiled '' Iam sorry you are stuck with me''


    Faye nodded returning the smile.


    I will try to keep youpany till Danes back even though I might get busy soon, so please feel


    comfortable'' if there is anything you want let me know.


    "I would like........a shower"Faye requested.


    She cannot sit and feelfortable when Dan is at God knows where!


    "Sure..... Take your time" he pointed to the door that led to the bathroom of the suite, while he walked


    out.


    Faye saw a bag on the bed opened it and saw a pair of cotton shirt and pink short, she entered the tub


    to shower and wait for Dan to return.


    While bathing Faye mind began to y trick on her.


    what if something bad has happened to dan?


    What if he has been kidnapped or dead?


    Or they have shot him again?


    She shook her head, Dan will be fine........


    "Mr sage will be here in less than forty minutes", she assured herself cleaning the foam off her body.


    After shower she dressed and walked towards the lounge to find Anthony who was close to the window


    working on his PC.


    "You look good", heplimented her eyeing her with a smile.


    "Thanks Anthony" she smiled.


    "I will order room service, least I forget here is the wine I brought when returning from Paris."


    Faye smiled collected the expensive wine from Anthony, "thank you.


    She walked to the mini bar at the corner of the suite, picking two ss cups.


    "Do you care? "Yes, thank you. He epted.


    Faye filled the sses with wine, gave Anthony one and walked to the couch infront of the television,


    she tried concentrating on the drama she was looking at but her mind wander to dan.


    "Is he okay? Is he still alive? She wondered.


    "Is the wine good? Anthony break her from her thoughts.


    "Uhm.... She nodded, the best I have drank so far.


    "I knew you would like it, he smiled walking towards her.


    Looking intently at her he smiled again, I bet Dan will like it too.


    Faye looked away, why is Anthony bringing her mind back to dan who she is trying hard not to think


    of?


    She wondered how long it will take Dan to return, she was aching to call him just to make sure he is


    fine, she took all her will power not to urge Anthony to call him. She doesn''t want Dan to suspect


    anything, well he has been out of the country over eight months and alot has happened.


    "I think I will need to rest a little while, she stood up cing her ss gently on the table. If you don''t


    mind, she added.


    Anthony nodded drinking the remaining content from his ss, '' Go ahead and have a nice rest.


    "Yeah'' she edge her way towards the bedroom.


    When she got to the bedroom she closed the door gently making sure to double check the lock.


    She had noticed the look in Anthony''s eyes when they were together in the car and in the hotel, she is


    not ready take any chances until Danes back.


    She began pacing the room wondering where Dan was, she checked her mobile No calls, No texts


    atall from him.


    "Where could he be?


    Tired of standing and thinking she changed into the hotel night wear and crept onto the bed.


    Maybe if shey down for a while Dan would burst through the door,e pick her up, carry her to


    his bed and make wild passionate love to her.


    Stupid!!


    Stupid girl! She mentally pped herself.


    She sighed closing her eyes.
