Chapter 94 - But— But He Was M— M—
Neal smiled. This girl proved to be everything he would have thought of as Daryn's wife – smart, bold, beautiful and dangerous. When Daryn had mentioned that she was the one who wrote the report about The Mink Corporation and had gotten away smartly that time, he couldn't help but roll with laughter. And a man like him rarely even smiled.
"Are you sure?" he asked Dawn.
"Yes I am," she replied with determination in her eyes.
Then he turned towards Daryn and said, "You have to understand that if Azura is invited, then it means that Brad is trying to show that he is tolerant to the neotides. This will go his favor. Your father, Gayle is known to be against the neotides."
Daryn's neck corded and there was visible tension on his face. His skin stretched in a snarl. An animalistic growl emanated from his throat. "What is the venue?"
"It is at Brad's mansion."
"I don't want to take Dawn there. She would be under a lot of risk."
Dawn walked up to him and held his hand lightly. She said, "On the contrary, if what Neal is saying is true, I won't be under any imminent threat in the party. The threat would be after it and not before it because no one knows that I am going." She squeezed his hand to assure him with confidence.
"Don't worry Daryn. I am going to stay close to Dawn along with our people," Neal guaranteed him.
Daryn wrapped his arms around Dawn and whispered, "I am so sorry about this mess."
She patted him affectionately and said softly, "Its not your fault."
Neal watched the two of them and a rare smile appeared on his face. They looked lovely, standing there together in each other's embrace. "I'll take your leave," he said and left the lovebirds. There were many things to do.
Once Neal left, she remained in his embrace for a while and then reminded him "Let us continue with our work for today Mr. Daryn."
"Hmm." Daryn left her. He was in a pensive mood. He picked up the phone and called Reyna in the office. "Wind up the entire project on my floor. I want the floor empty as soon as possible."
Reyna looked at Dawn with shocked expressions. Her eyes were wide with fear. What had this girl done? Did she upset the CEO to this extent that the CEO ordered to wind up the project with immediate effect? She felt sad for her in her heart. At the same time dawn made such a long face that it looked that she was about to cry. Reyna shook her head and mouthed, "I am sorry." Dawn nodded and accepted her sorry.
Daryn watched the two of them with narrowed eyes and raised his right eyebrow.
Before Reyna left, she said with hesitation, "Sir?"
"Yes?" he asked without looking at her.
"Umm…"
"What is it?" he demanded.
She gulped. "Ms— Ms. Maya has been calling me almost everyday from last few days to know whether Ms. Dawn is in the office or not." She scratched her forehead. "I thought I'd let you know."
"Okay," his tone was so cold and harsh that Reyna shuddered. She went out instantly.
"Why is Maya interested in my whereabouts, Daryn?" Dawn asked. "Does that— does that mean that she already suspects us?" Her gaze was rigid and intense. Does that mean that she had sent the werewolves to eliminate her the other night? No, she was overthinking.
Daryn exhaled heavily and said, "I think she knows."
"Shit!" Dawn's face became pale.
"That's why I said that going to the party is going to be dangerous for you. In my opinion, you shouldn't go." But he was certain that she would not listen to him.
"I will go!" she said, got up and walked out of the office banging the door again.
"Wait! Dawn!" he shouted from behind but she was gone. He picked up his phone and alerted the security. He shook his head. He was scared of an impending fight. His mind raced on what to do to divert her attention. On a second thought he called his financial advisor to his office. When Dawn came back, he introduced him to her and said, "He will help you with overtaking Neo Software completely." Daryn didn't want her to think about Maya at all. He had to deal with her and he didn't want Dawn to get involved in it.
Dawn was pleasantly surprised. Along with the financial advisor, she went to the adjacent meeting room. It took the entire day to setup her office online and to do the paper works. "It will take more time Ms. Dawn. This is a complicated process and transfer of shares etcetera usually takes most of the time."
"It's fine Mr. Rege. I appreciate you helping me," she replied with gratitude.
Daryn took a sigh of relief. Plan was successful.
By the time it was 6PM, Dawn was too tired to continue. Rege had left and she walked back to Daryn's office. He wasn't there. Reyna informed her that he would return in an hour. She was stuck in there. So she went to the couch and slept. When Daryn came back, it was 8PM. He picked her up in his arms. She stirred a little, opened her eyes and wrapped her arms around him. She buried her face in his neck as he took her all the way to the car disregarding every guard's reaction. They reached home by 9PM. Cole was extremely hungry, so they ordered takeaway.
When they both settled in her bed that night, he said, "What about my reward darling?"
She kissed him on his cheek and said, "There you go," and went back to sleep.
He stared at the incorrigible girl who slept immediately on his arm. He had imagined so much, but everything shattered instantly. "Bad girl," he whispered and curled his arm around her. He woke up at midnight with something pressing him. Dawn was atop his back, naked. "I thought I would give your reward," she said seductively.
"And how will you do that?" he whispered.
She got up. "Flip over." She sat on his thighs.
As soon as he was on his back, she grabbed his granite hard erection and massaged it a little. He hissed. He lifted her ass and made her sit on him. With both his hands, he moved her up and down. She brought her hands to support on his chest as he stretched her. He caught her and rolled with her and pinned her beneath him. He increased his pace and within a few seconds, he came.
Moments later when they were lying beside each other, he stroked her hair and said tenderly, "I want to know about your parents, Dawn."
Dawn turned on her back. She placed her arms over her head and a pained look appeared on her face. Its not that she wanted to hide but those were painful memories, and how long would she run away from them? "My father's name is Luke Wyatt."
Daryn drew his head back. In a disbelieving voice he asked, "Wait. What?"
Dawn bit her lip and switched on the bedside lamp. Dim light filled the room. She covered herself with the blanket while he sat there with a frown on his face.
"Yes, Luke Wyatt."
"But— but he was m— m—." His breath was shaky.
