Chapter 53


    The next morning she arrived at his suite right on time, after knocking thrice the door opened revealing


    a half naked Dan who just finished bathing few secondster Dan came out walked into the main


    room wearing pants but his shirt was in his hand.


    "You can clean the bathroom now"


    Faye nodded grabbed the cleaning tools and quickly walked past him but he grabbed her arm, when he


    looked at her face he could see the bags beneath her eyes, " what happened to you?" She wanted to


    say she stayed up all night thinking of the possible way she could approach him not to close down the


    hote, "Iam fine" she finally blurted out, she just wanted to do her job and get the hell out of there.


    He nodded, " go do your job" he freed her arm and walked out.


    Hourster she finished cleaning everywhere in his suite and by the time she was done she found out


    he was not yet back, thankfully she was d because she didn''t want to be around him, when she was


    done working her shift she got word that Dan Sage wanted to see her back in his suite.


    Reluctantly she headed back to the elevator, the whole ride up to his floor her thoughts ran rampant


    wondering what she has done this time, apparently when she got to the door she hesitated for a while


    in other to calm her erratic breathing, she knocked twice and entered seeing Dan sittted on his ck


    leather chair with a ss of wine in his hand .


    She gluped, " you wanted to see me?"


    "Yes, have your seat and what would you like to drink?"


    "Don''t bother, I''m fine."


    Dan nodded, " do you know why I asked you toe here?"


    "No"


    He dropped his ss on the table and stood up, " well to want you to take me round the hotel since you


    have been working here for long and you know the crook and cranny of this ce, and alsoe


    along with your note you''d write out things that needs to be fixed"


    With her hands on herp trying to stop them from shaking Faye asked, "why me?"


    Dan turned and paused studying her for a few seconds, "because I want you to"

    "I''m sorry I can''t, iam very busy with cleaning, it would be better if someone else see you around the


    hotel"


    That''s is so cute, you actually think you have a choice? He scoffed shaking his head, "you Know what?


    You will do as I say Mrs Faye"


    "Mrs Faye? Iam not married yet Mr sage.


    "Neither am I".


    Faye was dropped off her apartment twenty minutes from her hotel after going through the stress of


    showing Dan all the ces he needed to know about the hotel, when she wanted to pay the driver


    he informed her that it had been taken care, she knew it had to be Dan who paid she decided she


    would give him back his money when she sees him again, she owe him nothing neither does he.


    Walking into the small apartment she shared with Maureen she went straight to the cab to get


    aspirin, her legs and neck ache.


    After taking her bath she slipped into her night gown and crawl into her bed, shey there with her eyes


    wide open unable to stay, her thought flew back to Africa when she met Dan for this first time, how


    she became his secretary and more leading to the most unforgettable experience she had, she exhaled


    and turned when she remembered how he hurt her and made her fled away for her sanity but here


    again Dan has proved to her that she can never run away from him unless he allowed her to, how


    did he know she was working in this hotel? Was his decision to close the hotel a way for him to


    revenge?


    The next day she entered into the hotel and got a word from her colleague that Dan wants to see


    her immediately, on getting to his office she slowly entered while closing the door carefully behind her,


    Dan who was standing facing the window with his arm crossed turned to look at her, there she was


    standing like an angel with her jet ck hair ties in a neat bun, with a pink lipstick topliment her


    beauty, the short gown revealing her smooth straight legs, there she was standing before him..... HIS


    FAYE.


    Dan gaze raked over her from head to toe causing heat crept through her cheek as her body


    became warm, " Do you still want to save this hotel?" He asked walking towards her, his stride were


    long, powerful and dangerous.


    "Y...yes," Faye stutter when he drew closer to her, " you know I want nothing more than to have the


    hotel stay open"


    Dan nodded, " well there might be a way" before Faye could move out of his way Dan''s palm


    rested on the door on each side, she was finally trapped. Faye felt the heat from his body, as his warm


    breath fanned her face when he leaned in even closer to her starring at her already parted lip, Dan


    closed his eyes as he exhaled the once familiar perfume she always had on that makes him go crazy


    with desire for her and her only. Curiosity over took Faye''s fear as she asked him, " how?"


    " Iam willing to make a deal with you, one that will benefit the both of us"


    Faye swallowed nervously, " what kind of deal is that? Her voice shook when she spoke not sure if she


    was actually capable of hearing what he wanted to say.


    "Have one week affair with me"


    Faye looked at him to see if he was joking, not sure she heard him right she looked up again to meet


    his eyes, " what did you say?"


    I said " have one week affair with me, I will keep the hotel open Making sure everyone continue with


    their work and I will also pay you one million dors"


    With anger radiating over her Faye pushed him out of her sight, wanting to p his smug face, " I''m not


    a who''re" she hissed, " if that is what you seek iam sure you can find one a lot cheaper"


    She wanted to open the door but he grabbed her arm sending tingles up her spine, " I know you''re not


    a whore, and if I want one I will get it this moment and it would surely be a lot cheaper"


    Faye eyed him angrily, " get your hands off me" she snapped, Dan smirked drawing closer to her, "


    making love with me would be worth it again, I can make you feel those things you always felt before


    and even more, I know you badly need the money, all I want is just one week with you..... No strings


    attached. Dan handed her his card and whispered to her ears, " think about it Faye, your mum shop,


    your sibling education and your need to find a better apartment, this money would solve everything that


    gives you sleepless nights and even more".


    Faye angrily tried to remove her hand from his grip but Dan holding it tighter pulled her roughly into


    his arm, cupping the back of her head he pulled her close and kissed her, her legs felt weak, her lip


    being crushed under his as he kissed her. It was rough yet sensual as he devoured her mouth with


    such passion.


    Faye desperately wanted to wrap her arms around his neck but fought it leaving it dangling by her side,


    Dan stopped as he drew backward and smile, " I will leave for Africa in two days and I would love to


    have you with me".


    He turned and walked out leaving Faye standing there with her mouth open, his breath on her neck and


    the way he ran his hand slowly up and down her arm left her breathless awaking the feeling she


    thought was dead.
