Chapter 3 Entangled in Secrets

Vanessa got into the shower. She set the shower to 100°F . She always found a hot shower as a good way to relive stress .

She was lightly drunk and still frustrated as her sexual needs were not met .

Outside of the bathroom, Caleb stood in the room right in front of the mirror . He starred right into his face and ran his eyes quickly across his body.

He could see a reddish hickey on his neck and down to his collarbone. He did not notice that Vanessa was so passionate about that night until he looked at himself in the mirror and saw the hickeys,which ignited his passion. Immediately he, unbuttoned the last button of his shirt . He unbuckled his belt with flair and whipped his trouser away .

While Vanessa was still in the shower trying to wrap her head around everything that must have happened in the last twenty four hours, Caleb opened the bathroom door quietly and went sliding the glass door of the shower .

He stepped into the shower with one foot and released her hair from the hairpin she had used to pack her hair up thereby letting her hair down .

Vanessa has a long blonde hair with curly tip, so she could feel her hair touch her shoulders and she turned to see him standing behind her having only his brief .

She gave a slow and deliberate glances at Caleb with her baby blue eyes , moving slowly from his face down to his body .

Caleb and Vanessa made eye contacts which left them feeling connected and creating a seductive aura.

He held her by the neck gently and kissed her so passionately as he closed the glass door completely with the other hand .

He pinned her to the wall firmly yet tender. He made sure they were in the hot shower and he slowly took his hand down to her breast and used his fingertips to give her nipples a light and soft strokes.

Vanessa had a head rush, leaving her with intense sensations that almost overwhelmed her senses . "Ugh...yes" Vanessa said as the pleasure got intense

He gave a feather like touch across Vanessa's chest . He lightly ran his fingertip over her belly button down to her inner thigh.

The bathroom was air tight and full of steam emitting from their bodies . On the glass door were their palm prints and fingerprints that told a story of they shared emotions and passion.

Vanessa grabbed Caleb's arms so tightly . She couldn't stop herself from the soft and slow moan .

"Mm, that fee-eels so .. so .. good " she moaned

He whispered her name like a solemn request into her ear as he entered her. Their heart beats worked as a rhythm in time .

Gently the water began to cool. They stood tangled together and wrapped in each other's warmth .

Caleb grabbed the bath robe and helped Vanessa get into it . He carried her out of the bathroom, gave her a cup of warm water to drink and laid her in bed.

He gave her a goodnight peck and tucked her in while he sat on the cushioned chair opposite her and kept watch over her ensuring her safety .

At exactly 6:00 am Vanessa's first alarm rang which gave a piercing and buzzing sound through the room .

"Oh damn ! " she exclaimed.

Vanessa slept without her blindfold as she did not plan to spend her night in a motel . She sat up in bed, rubbing her eyes as she was half asleep . She did a groggy searching for her blindfold but could not find it .

"Ahhh" she screamed with frustration. "My head !" Vanessa screamed

Caleb heard her screams from his sleep and quickly got off the cushioned chair .

"Let me get you a glass of water ma'am " he said

She took the glass of water but was not feeling any better as she was having a hang over

"You should get some rest ma'am " Caleb said . He continued "it's only 6:15 am. We can make it to the Wynter mansion before 9:00 am"

He tucked her in . She used a pillow to cover her eyes from the sun rays as the window blinds in the motel were not strong enough to block off the sun rays.

In an hour's time, Caleb received a call from Maria Wynter. She had not seen Vanessa in the last 12 hours and she wanted Vanessa in the house for the weekend.

"Where is Vanessa?" Maria Wynter asked Caleb on the phone

"Good mor..." he said as he got interrupted by Maria

"There's nothing good about the morning, Caleb" Maria said with eloquently

"Vanessa is not her apartment and she is not here. Where is my baby " Maria continued.

Caleb could not say a word as Maria took over the conversation and ordered him to bring Vanessa to the Wynter mansion before 9 am .

"The chairman of Kelmaka Group and his wife will be here today . Vanessa shouldn't be missing " Maria said as she ended the call .

While Vanessa was still sleeping, Caleb immediately packed up her things into her purse and gave Vanessa a gentle tap on her wrist as he called her name

"Ma'am ! Ma'am Vanessa" Caleb called

Vanessa moved the pillow away from her eyes gently and slightly opened her eyes, giving a puzzled gaze at Caleb with her eyebrows raised and her head tilted a bit .

"We need to get to the mansion immediately ma'am " Caleb insisted.

"Caleb... please" Vanessa said with a weary look .

"The Mistress just called " Caleb said

Maria Wynter is generally called Mistress because she is in charge of the Wynter group and mansion and oversees the day to day activities.

As she heard this, she did not hesitate. She dragged herself out of the bed . She had a quick face wash and rinsed her mouth.

"Aspirin !" Vanessa said quietly with her hand on her head .

Caleb helped her get her purse, dressed her up and led her by the hand to the car . On their way to the mansion, he dropped by the pharmacy and got her a bottle of water and aspirin .

"You should have this ma'am. It will help ease the pain" Caleb said as he handed her the bottle of water and aspirin.

Caleb got back into the driver's seat and drove speedily. His head was full of scenes from the one night stand he had with his boss that he didn't know when he drove over the speed limit .

"Slow down ! " she said as she tapped he on the shoulder.

Caleb looked at Vanessa through the rare view mirror. He clutched his jaw and was still full of thoughts.

"About last night " Caleb said . He continued "it is between us "

Vanessa reacted with a sigh .

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect any of that to happen " she said "I totally agree that it should all stay between us only" Vanessa continued

Caleb gave no response. He got into the mansion and parked at Vanessa's parking space and handed her car key over to her .

As Vanessa stepped out of the car, her phone rang . It was Julian calling .
