LUST LOVE: Slave To The Billionaire CEO
Chapter 36

Keane wakes up to an empty bed, she is not by his side. Looking around, there was no sign of her.

It was strange how he felt so deep asleep with her by his side, normally he wasn't the type to drown in his sleep but it was different with her around. Climbing down the stairs, he was met with a delicious dinner served. Manhattan clam chowder and bread with some nice french fries.

He walks to his seat quietly watching the tiny figure before him walk in and out of the kitchen. She only stops when the fish are all on the table. She quickly served him some on his plate, before taking her seat by the side, on her usual.

"Why didn't you stay longer?" His baritone voice vibrates, it is the first time he has spoken since he woke up and the sound of his voice in her ears sends shivers down her spine as she stares at him in disbelief. She didn't expect him to say much.

"Sorry master...I couldn't fall asleep so I thought it wise to prepare you dinner" she explains with her head lowered. He nods and digs on the food, taking a mouthful of it.

"Just don't do it next time!" He tells her and she nods. His sudden change in how he talks to her and treats her only gives her even bigger hopes that he feels something for her. Little did she know that it was nothing of such. "Good food!" He complimented me. Her face was crimson red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Thanks, master" Her voice came out as a whisper but he was able to hear her.

Lately, she hasn't missed the word 'master' when talking to him, it was strange yet somehow felt good to her.

She was supposed to call him master anyway, whether she agreed to it or not.

A light smile formed on his lips at how red she was, sure enough, he knew her true feelings for him and only God knows what was in that dirty mind of his.

After dinner, he bids her good night and runs to her room, slumps on her bed still blushing.

She can't believe she's finally able to have a normal conversation with him, and he's...just so different and gentle and even more handsome when he smiles.

She closes her eyes again, reminiscing about him and his beautiful laughter. The sound of his laughter made her heart skip in excitement, beating like never before.

At first, she thought she would die because of how fast it was beating but she didn't, it was all known, and a different set of emotions she was having and it's all possible because of him.

What else could he make her do? She wonders, smiling with eyes closed as she lies on her back facing the ceiling.

"Sleeping already?" He asked, jolting her from her world of fantasy. Her eyes snapped open at the sound of his voice, she didn't believe he was here, in her room.

Not like he hasn't been here but she didn't hear anyone come in or maybe she was just too lost in her thoughts to hear a thing.

"No...no! Just thinking" she said scratching on the back of her neck and staring at everything before her except him.

"Go to bed early, there is work tomorrow" he informs. She nods a yes and falls back on the bed when the door closes.

With a heavy sigh, she tugs herself into the big cover holding onto the pillow he slept on. His scent was all over it, making her smile widen even more.

She wakes up the next day and hurries to get dressed for work. Climbing down the stairs, he was already seated eating his breakfast.

Well, he's not much of an eater so he was quick to get over it.

Letting him leave before her, Smiles stood by the door and watched him enter his car.

She waited for the car to kick off but it wasn't, only when he was gone could she leave but with him still there, she couldn't do much but stand like an assignment guard.

"You're coming or what?" He asked. This took her by surprise and she turned around, thinking there was someone he was talking to.' It can't be me right?' she thought to herself but when she didn't see anyone behind, she was definitely sure he was talking to her.

"Me! Master!" She asked again pointing to herself and only when he nodded did she move forward, and enter the car.

Everything was happening so fast, and she just couldn't believe she was with him in his car. It's like a dream to her and it's just too much for her small heart.

She clung to her chest, trying to make it stop beating faster but it was far from stopping anytime soon.

The sight of her holding her chest made Keane's brow twist, it was neither displeasure nor concern but somehow indescribable.

"Are you ok?" he asked. She turns to him, meeting his gaze.

"Huh?... yes...yes, I am ok...I am fine, very" she said trying to hide away her sweaty face. The car wasn't hot, there was an air conditioner in the car making it even colder than normal but the sweet refused to stop. "Then why clunch on your chest?" He raises a brow directing his questions to her hands that are still on her chest.

She stares at her hands on her chest, speechless.

"I- Um, just feeling a little bit cold" she lies. That's the only thing that came to mind and she had no chocolate but to say it little did she know she was only worsening the situation.

"Turn off the air conditioner" she heard him and her eyes flew wide open, not believing her ears. The AC was actually helping her not to sweet too much and if they turn it off, she will only float this car with her sweet.

She opens her mouth to protest but when her eyes catch hold of the company not far away, her mouth closes immediately. It will be much better if she perseveres a little while longer for them to reach the company. As soon as the car stops, she quickly opens the door, not willing to wait for anyone.

With a grateful smile on her face, she thanked him for the ride and quickly made her way inside.

It was like a fire was burning hot through her veins, but it all felt better when she was away from him.
