Raphael POV I wake up and get on with my day, I get myself sorted and I go to work, I drive myself today as I am not in the mood to have small talk, not even to Maria, so after getting myself sorted I avoid the kitchen and I just go straight to the garage.
I arrive at my office and I sit on my desk having a great view of the Empire State Building. My assistant brings me my coffee and I get on with my paperwork. My phone rings and its Scott.
âWhat do you want Scott?â
âI want you to stay away from my assistantâ
I laugh â âWhy? You canât handle some competition?â
âSheâs mineâ â he says and I feel my blood boil âThe fuck she is, donât you dare trying to get on with her Scottâ
âFuck you Raphaelâ â I hear him say âOh, I will get fucked, by Olivia, I will bend her on YOUR desk and FUCK HER into Oblivionâ â I say with a smirk on my face.
âNOT IF I HAVE MY WAY, YOU WILL NEVER TOUCH ONE HAIR ON HER HEADâ
âCareful Scott, Donât start something you canât finishâ â I warn him.
âFuck you, I got to goâ â he says hanging up the phone.
I hand up the phone and I throw the folders on my desk to the floor. âFUCKâ- I ignore the papers on the floor and open my laptop looking at contracts and other shit.
When it comes to lunch time I have a lunch meeting and I canât believe it is with Lucas Scott. He runs businesses and we have some projects together that need attending but after that phone call I just want to fucking put a bullet between his eyes.
My secretary knocks on the door at the exact time I am about to leave.
âMr Lockwood sirâ
âYes Amelia?â
âSir Mr Scott called himself saying he wonât be able to attend the meeting because of personal reasonsâ
âWHAT FUCKING PERSONAL REASONS?â
She takes a step back â âI am sorry sir but he didnât want to sayâ
That fucking ass-hole â âLeaveâ â I say I grab my phone and call Joseph âHey, I need you to follow Scottâ
âAny particular reason boss?â
âJUST DO WHAT YOU ARE TOLDâ
âOff courseâ â he says and I hung up the phone.
I sit again on my desk opening my emails and I open the one with Oliviaâs file, just so I can look at her photo. Those eyes could conquer the world. Put anyone on their knees.
My Phone rings and I answer âThis better be goodâ
âBoss you are not going to like this, Scott is at St. Claireâs Hospitalâ
âI hope he is fucking dyingâ
âBoss, Olivia was committed to hospital and he is there with herâ
âWHAT? WHY DIDNâT YOU START WITH THAT INFORMATION?â
I hung up the phone grabbing my car keys, sun glasses wallet and walk out of the office looking at Amelia âCancel everything Iâve got for the next couple of daysâ
âYes sirâ
âTell Tim to keep his work and if he needs anything I-m on my cellâ â I say already inside the lift.
I keep walking until Iâm inside my car, I drive to hospital and this is one of the hospitals that I give money every month, This is where my soldiers get treated in case something happen to them. I have the board on the palm od my hands and Scottâs money wonât do shit here.
I call the hospital on my speaker phone I donât let the person that answer the phone speak âPut Doctor Smith on the phoneâ
I guess the other person recognised my voice because the next voice I hear is Smith âRaphael?â
âDoc, Olivia Black was committed there, I want full report on her condition, and I will be there in 20â
âI will check her file right nowâ
I drive as fast as I can, but traffic in NY is a shit show. When I arrive at the hospital I park my car on a reserved space and I rush inside. I pass everyone not looking at them and walk straight to reception âGet me Doctor Smithâ
âMr Lockwood, what a pleasureâ
I am losing my patience with this imbeciles that think that flirting with me will do them any good.
I support my weight on my arms getting my face closer to the womanâs at reception and I smile showing my perfect white teeth â âLove, if you value your job you will keep that pretty little mouth of your shut and do your fucking job, that is to do what the fuck I just said, because If I wanted to fuck you, you would be already on your knees sucking me off, are we clear?â
She opens her eyes wide and nods her head.
âGood, now get me the Docâ
Within a couple of minutes the doc arrives while I am pacing around. I am not a patient men, waiting is not a thing that I take well.
âRaphael walk with meâ â the Doc says.
I walk with the doc through double doors and then another corridor and another and we get to a waiting room where I see Scott sitting with his head between his hands looking at the floor.
âScott, what the fuck happened to her?â
He lifts his head looking at me and I see a men and a girl turning their heads to look at me, who the fuck are they?
âFuck youâ â he says I approach him and my left hand wraps around his neck making him get up, I tighten my grip while he has both of his hands grabbing my wrist âDonât fuck around with me Scott, I am not in the fucking moodâ
âHey, put him downâ â the guy says âAnd who the fuck are you?â - I say just turning my head to look at him âI am John, Livâs best friend, please put him downâ
How did I not know about this guy? Why wasnât him in the report about Olivia?
The doc calls my name and I let go of Lucas and focus my attention on him.
âSo, what I got here is that Olivia was found on the floor passed out on a corridor by a student that immediately called 911, she was breathing just unconscious, as request from Mr Scott she was brought here and all the bills are going to his accountâ
I donât let him finish âI want her on one of my rooms, I will pay for all of her expensesâ â he have one floor of the hospital dedicated to my services. Our rooms are like hotel suits, I donât want my men to feel uncomfortable when they end up in hospital doing a dirty job for me.
The Doc nods his head and scribbles on her file.
âBlood has been taken for exams, we did an x-ray to her head because we didnât know if she hit her head on the fall, some other exams are being made to make sure she is okay. She woke up for a couple of minutes but at the moment she is still unconsciousâ.
âI want all the tests done, I want her checked from head to toe, everythingâ
âWe are already doing it Raphael, Iâm going to need you to sit here and wait until she goes back to her room. Whenever I have more information I will let you knowâ
I nod my head and I allow my body to crash in one of those uncomfortable waiting room chairs.
I see Scott pacing around and he is fucking driving me insane with all the pacing, while the guy and the girl whisper to each other holding hands.
âFUCKING HELL SCOTT, TAKE A FUCKING SITâ
He doesnât answer me and sits down in front of me. I hear steps and I get up rushing to get closer to the Doc âAny news?â â I ask âThe blood tests came out and she is lacking some vitamins, she woke up and told us that in the past 30 hours she only ate an apple and had coffee, plus she said she had an eventful and stressful weekend making her blood pressure get highâ
âSo what now?â â I ask I see her friends and Scott getting up and walking towards us to hear what the doctor has to say.
âSheâs going to stay under observation for 24 hours so we can monitor her head, she is complaining with some headaches, so we rather be safe and keep her hereâ
Lucas listens to everything and I can hear him taking a deep breath, and I realise I think Iâve been holding mine. Her friends hug each other and smile with the news of her being Ok.
âCan I go see her?â â I ask the Doc âYes, one at a time and she needs to rest, so please keep stress levels lowâ
Lucas approaches us âI am going firstâ â he says âThe fuck you areâ â I say looking down on him âYou can leave now Scott, sheâs being taken care ofâ
âI am not going anywhereâ
I give one step forward getting closer to Lucas âHelp me God Lucas, if you donât leave her the fuck alone I will put a bullet between your eyesâ
His eyes open widely looking at me âYou canât do that Lockwoodâ
âFucking try meâ â I say giving another step âYou guys want to go first?â â I ask her friends âyes pleaseâ â they both say at the same time.
They follow the doctor and I wait for what seems like forever.
I sit on those fucking uncomfortable chairs and wait. They both come back with smiles on their faces and thank me for taking care of her. I believe they know who I am.
âDid you tell her I am here?â â I ask as if I was a little kid âNoâ â the girl says She throws her hand in front of me âI am Anna and this is John, we are her best friends, thank you for taking care of her Mr Lockwoodâ
âRaphael please, and it is my pleasure to take care of Oliviaâ â I say trying to be polite but all I want is to run into that room and hold her into my arms and never let her go again.
I walk towards her room after talking to her friends, I bump into Lucas making him lose his balance and almost fall on the floor. I nock on the door.
âCome inâ â I hear her voice and my heart aches I open the door and when I see her laying down on that bed I feel like holding her, so thatâs what I do, I walk towards her and push her into my arms while I sit on the side of the bed âRaphael? What are you doing here?â
âWhy didnât you eat?â â I ask not believing she could be so careless.
She looks at her hands that are shaking a little âOlivia, look at meâ - I say putting her body back into the laying position on the bed She keeps her eyes down, avoiding me at all costs I lift her face so she can look at me âWhat happened?â
âI-I forgot to go groceries shopping, so Friday night I was too tired to go shopping, than Saturday I woke up late and then we had the gala, and yesterday after I left you I had an apple and some water, but I was tired to go out, and today I had no money for lunch so I just grabbed a coffee, I was going grocery shopping after work, besides Lucas had offered to take me out for lunch today, but I guess he forgot about thatâ
âFucksake Oliviaâ â I say looking into her green eyes âI am sorry, I didnât want to get in your wayâ
âI want you healthy, I need you healthyâ â I say looking at her small frame.
I grab the phone on the bedroom and I call reception âGet me some food here nowâ
âRaphael I am ok, they already gave me some foodâ
âNot enoughâ â I say trying to camouflage my worried voice âRaphael?â
âYes?â
âWhy are you here?â
âBecauseâ â I canât come out with anything so I say it âBecause since that day in the park I canât get you out of my head, as if you put a spell on me, and I have this need to protect youâ
She looks at me in shock.
âI thought you hated meâ â she says looking at her hands again âI donât hate you, I desire you, I crave you, I would never hate youâ
âBut you treated me like shitâ â and her voice breaks âHey, hey, look at meâ¦â
She lifts those beautiful eyes locking in mine âI had to, because otherwise I wouldnât be able to control myself and I wouldâve fucked you on the spotâ
âSo thatâs it? You want to fuck me?â â She asks âOh, I want to fuck you, I need to fuck you and make you mine, I need to hear that amazing voice of yours scream my name while I lick your pussy, I need to hear you breathing heavily again while I play with your clit, I want to feel you wetâ
She shakes her head as in disbelieve âWhy didnât you fuck me than?â
âBecause I said to you before, you are going to ask me to fuck youâ â I say giving her a smile âRaphaelâ¦. Fuck meâ
