Love Thy Neighbour by Annecia Ellies (fantasy books to read .txt) 📕

few short months but to me it’s enough time to realize that you mean so much to me. It may sound selfish but I want you for myself. I want to be your man, your lover, your companion, your best friend. I want to share your life and for you to share mine, to face the struggles we may face together, to explore each other and our world together. I want to be the ending to your beginning and the person in your life who you can’t do without. I truly love you and it irks me to think that you could be in danger because of Flynn. I see him as a threat.”

“He is not dangerous Filipe, I can handle him”

“You don’t get it do you? Love can do strange things to a person. Did you hear him say he will call you?”

“Yes, but I blocked his number.”

“How hard is it for him to use another phone to call you?”

She didn’t answer, instead she dropped herself back on the bed beside him.

“Ok, what if I stay for a few days?”

“I want you to stay forever.”

“Filipe, I have a life to live.”

“Maybe I need to take you away from this life, give you a new one.”

‘You are making me angry now. I feel as if you are not listening to me.”

She got up slowly then made a dash for the door, but Filipe was expecting it so he grabbed her. He picked her up around her waist and took her back to the bed.

“I will tie you down if I have to you know.”

“You would not!”

“Are you daring me Morgan?”

“Are you crazy?” she shouted

Filipe then pushed her onto the bed and sat astride her. He then held her hands and placed what appeared to be some type of handcuff on her. When he did the same with her next hand, then she realized it was already attached to the bed.

“Filipe, what is this? You can’t do this, let me go.”

“You need to stay there for a bit and think Morgan. That guy is after you and you’re not seeing the danger in it.”

“You cuffed me to a bed Filipe, right now you are more of a danger than he is.”

Filipe gasped, “You really believe that?”

“Yes!” she shouted

Filipe turned and walked out of the room.

“Filipe come back here! I’m sorry ok!” Morgan shouted, but he did not return.

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter Twenty Six

 

Morgan laid there for what seems like more than an hour. Meanwhile she looked at the décor in the room, it was cozy, elegant and beautifully done, Kudos to Petra she has a flair for style. The comforter was beautiful and soft, it displayed a waterfall from a mountain and looked almost real with the water cascading down the bed. She wondered what Filipe was up to, did he actually tie her to the bed left her here, and is it some sort of game? She pulled on the cuffs and realized although it held her wrist firmly it was stretchable and she can sit down, but remain bounded to the bed rail. She tried to stand but couldn’t, it didn’t stretch that far.

“Filipe!” she shouted, no answer

“Filipe, ok I’ll stay!” she shouted again, still no answer.

She was still wearing an oversized t shirt with no slippers. She had no phone, nothing on her but the t shirt and her underwear actually. This can’t be happening, she thought. The longer she sat the angrier she became. When she couldn’t stand it anymore she began to cry. She thought of screaming but remembered he had told her the penthouses are sound proof. Exhausted from crying she laid back on the bed and fell asleep.

Meanwhile, since he left her, Filipe went back to her apartment and packed her some bags. He packed clothes and cosmetics, he took a little of everything from each drawer, slippers and her cell phone. He turned off her gas and turned off her lights as he passed through. Took her laptop and checked the messages recorded on her house phone. As he expected, there were three messages from Flynn, in anger he ripped the telephone cord out from the wall. He then took everything upstairs and placed the stuff in the bedroom next to his. The apartment was silent with only his footsteps sounding on the floor where it lacked carpeting. He silently walked up the steps, opened the door and watched her as she slept. He approached the bed and looked closely at her breathing because he realized that her chest was slightly heaving as if she was crying. When he saw the tear stained cheeks he started to panic. What have I done?

When he sat on the bed and she stirred slightly, he touched her face lightly with his fingers and she stirred again.

“Morgan” he whispered, and her eyes fluttered open. She looked at him in the eyes and then looked around the room. When she remembered where she was she sat upright.

“How can you do this to me Filipe, what is your plans are you into kidnapping now?” he realized that she was still angry.

“I’m sorry Morgan, but I had to make you realize how unsafe it is on your own as long as Flynn still has you in mind.”

“So you kidnap me and tie me to the bed?”

“I did not kidnap you.”

“I don’t remember coming willingly,” she was starting to shout again.

“If I take them off, will you stay? Please?” he looked at her angrily but inside his heart was breaking. She did not answer, instead she turned away, laid back and folded her arms as her eyes filled with water. Filipe then took her left hand and unclasped the cuff. She just dropped her hands on the bed, still not responding to him, her head resting on the bed rail. He then reached over and unclasped the right hand, then went towards the door and held it open and just stood there. Morgan looked up at him then and was surprised to see his blue eyes swimming in unshed tears. She dropped her eyes and her own started filling up again.

“Are you hurt?” he then asked her so soft she hardly heard what he said.

“Not physically, no”

“Ok, you can leave if you want to, I’m very sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you, I just don’t want to lose you.”

“I told you I can handle Flynn, why won’t you believe me?”

“Ok, you handle him in your way, I’m sorry, I hope you can forgive me.” He then left her and returned downstairs.

Filipe went into his room, emotions churning in his head, he can feel the anxiety building inside his chest. He walked into the bathroom and splashed his face with cold water and closed his eyes for a few minutes trying to collect himself. What have I done? He asked his reflection, he felt as if he had just destroyed what he was building with Morgan and it hurt deeply. On returning to his bedroom he was surprised to see her sitting on his bed. She looked at him as he approached, he went down on his knees before her and rested his head on her lap. His hands around her, he fought the tears and emotions burning inside him. She put her hands on his head and ran her fingers through his hair.

“You didn’t leave.” He said, his voice filled with emotion.

‘No, I didn’t leave” she replied, still playing with his hair

“Do you forgive me ma Cherie?”

He felt her shrug but she said nothing, he buried his face deeper into her lap and tightened his arms around her.

“Please?”

“Please, Ma Cherie, I will do anything for you, understand that I just want you to be safe, and I must admit that I am selfish when it comes to you, I want you all to myself.” He said barely above a whisper.

“Filipe, do you trust me?”

“Yes I do ma Cherie”

“Then let me handle Flynn on my own.”

“Ok, is it so wrong to want to protect you?”

“No it isn’t, you scared me though.”

He raised up on his knees and came almost face to face with her, “I will never do it again. I trust you, completely honey, it’s him I don’t trust.”

“I know, ok if it makes you comfortable and at peace I will stay for a while. But you get to explain it to my mom when she calls.” She finally smiled and he felt the burden in his chest lifting away.

“It’s ok, I wormed my way into Dawn’s heart when we had dinner, and she will excuse anything I do as long as I keep you safe.” They both laughed.

“I went for some of your things, but you may need to go for more.” He said to her, kissing her hands.

“You did?”

“Yes, when I returned I just saw you sleeping, I didn’t realize you took me seriously. I didn’t mean to make you cry Ma Cherie.”

“You made me so angry.”

“Will a kiss erase the pain and bring your forgiveness?”

“Yes it will… always.”

He kissed her, tenderly for a moment, then she broke the kiss.

“Tell me something, why are there handcuffs on that bed?”

“Oh that’s for when we want to get a little kinky my sweet.”

Morgan jaw dropped, then she laughed out, “Are you serious?”

“Yes I am, you don’t know all of me as yet, I can take you to places sexually you have never been Morgan.” He looked at her with a glint of mischief in his blue eyes.

She stared at him in shock. “Did you watch that movie Fifty Shades then?” she asked

“Never did, but I heard about it and did some research of my own.” He replied

“Hmm” she said

“Filipe, do you really love me and want forever with me?”

“Ma Cherie, I want now, I want forever, I want ever after, I want it all with you, and yes I really love you and have been in love with you for quite some time. I didn’t want to say anything because I didn’t want you to feel as if I was rushing you. I love you Morgan Andersen and I want you to be mine, forever.”

“I want forever with you too, and I love you Filipe. Well besides what you pulled tonight here you are everything I want in a man, in a lover in a friend. Sometimes I wonder if I will be waking up from a dream because you are like a dream coming true.”

He stood up and pulled her to stand with him. “Do you mean that Morgan?”

“Every word,” she whispered

“So can we officially tell the world that we’re a couple?”

“Um, I guess we can, who do you want to tell?”

“I want to tell the world.” He replied, “I want you really bad right now” he whispered as he covered her lips with his own. She grabbed onto him and pulled her legs up around his waist as he they sunk back onto the bed. She didn’t have much clothes to remove so soon she was naked, waiting for him to remove the t shirt and jeans he wore. He gazed fixedly into her eyes, ignoring the way she was breathing and the rise and fall of her chest as her breath became raspy.

“Hurry up Filipe, I’m dying here” Morgan reached out to grab him when she realized he was purposefully removing his clothes slowly. Filipe came down onto her and began kissing her nipples. Soon they were making sweet, breathless love, two hearts, two bodies, and two souls which were meant for each other joining as one.
