"I'll do much more." He answered Cassie as he pulled her towards him, making her sit on his lap as he started kissing her from her lips down to her exposed neck and shoulders.
"Then stop making me feel that you don't need me anymore." She whispered as she succumbed to his advances, letting him get rid of her clothes one by one.
She also started removing his tie and then his shirt, feeling his skin against hers. She knew that loving Nick could be her downfall. He was a scumbag, and he would betray her.
She was taking what he was willing to give for the meantime until she, too, achieved what she wanted in this arrangement. She would get what she could from this relationship. Until she was rich enough to stay away from him, at the same time ruining Daniella in the process.
"Do you want me?" He asked her, placing her on top of the table.
Wild sex was what would make Cassie shut up and comply with his every word. He had no problem in giving her that. It was like hitting two birds with one stone. He got satisfied by giving in to what she wanted. At the same time, he also got her to obey his every wish.
"Yes, I want you." She answered wantonly, as she let him do what he wished with her body.
She pulled him closer to her, not wanting to wait any longer until they were savagely gratifying their need for the flesh. Both, wanting to fight for control, but Nick did win the upper hand.
He would never allow Cassie to take over their relationship. He knew that she could also be cunning, but she would never win against him. He would make sure to get rid of her once he was done with her before she even caused any more problems for him.
He showered her once again with kisses, assuring her that he valued her presence in his life. "You know I can't live without you." He whispered in her ears. "But I need to get back to work." Looking at the time.
"Ok, fine." She slowly stepped away from him, putting back her clothes as he did the same.
"Thank you, my love." Saying those endearments was not hard for him since he did not mean any of it, but it was what was needed to make her cooperate with his plans.
"I'll see you tonight at my place," Cassie stated. After that, she finally left his office happy and satiated for the moment. That was until Cassie found something to complain about again.
But she also had her plans that she needed to alter, knowing that things were changing drastically around her.
"I'll see you then." He promised, but he was not sure if he would make it. With the recent problems that he was having, he had no time for her. He would make up with her at another time.
He was once again alone in his office, but this time, he was not thinking of his business but the news he just learned. He was not happy to hear that Dani was getting married.
He did plan to marry Dani. If things worked out the way he had arranged, she should be married to him by now. But her father, Ethan, learned of his plans. He was not sure how he had discovered it, but he did. He even found out that he was sleeping with Cassie.
He still remembered what he said to him one morning. "If you don't leave my daughter alone, I would make sure that you would not see the light of day. But if you agreed to what I want, I would make sure to compensate you generously for your sacrifice."
If Ethan did not discover his plans to use his daughter to get to his good grace, and he got to marry Dani, then he would be sitting prettily as the right hand of Ethan. He would have been the one next in line to his fortune.
Instead, he had to settle for his generous offer to stay away from his daughter in exchange for a meager amount compared to what he lost. He was not ready then to take Ethan and his threats. So, he had no choice but to take the money and ran.
"I will find out whoever tried to ruin me. I will get what I want." He swore to himself.
He always wondered what happened that day because everything was going smoothly according to his plan. Daniella already agreed to marry him. Ethan already treated him like the son he never had, showing him the ropes of the business.
They were playing nicely in the palm of his hands, like puppets he was controlling with his fingers. But that morning, someone betrayed him and told them his plans. They even had pictures of him and Cassie together intimately.
They planned it carefully, discrediting him to the eyes of Ethan and Dani. He never had a chance to explain to them as both hated him.
"I'm coming back, and this time, I am taking what is mine." Nick declared in front of his reflection on frame in front of him, looking at the picture of him and Dani that he just pulled out from his drawer.
He already invested so much of his life in Dani and her father. He was not going to allow that to go to waste. He was not finished with them, not yet.
"You will be mine again, Dani." Nick looked at her picture.
He looked again at the pile of papers in front of him. It was when he missed Dani. He could count on her to solve some of his problems. She had helped him in many ways in his business because of his natural ability to run an empire. Something that she had inherited from her father.
But the problem with her was that. She was too intelligent, and at the same time, too righteous. She would never agree to the way he wanted to run his business. He had seen her fight her father over that.
Still, he wanted to marry her because he believed that she was the only queen suitable to sit beside him when he took over her father's kingdom.
