Taming Faye

Chapter 52

Two weeks later Faye got a Job as a maid in Sheraton hotel, although that wasn't what she wanted she was satisfied with it since it will keep her far away from home, her last experience, the pains and emotional torture. Four months into working as a full time maid she had made friends with the other staff members, they became like family.

But when the news came that the hotel was shutting down, a cloud of despair overshadowed everyone as their heart became heavy. Many who worked there were matured in age and most of the younger ones had little or no education, and seeing the economy situation bosses were laying off their workers which means finding another job would be difficult. Words spread that the new owner was coming to inspect the hotel to determine what was needed to be done to suite his taste, the staffs panicked.

They all got together to sign a petition so the owner could keep the hotel running seeiy that that was the only surviving job 80%of them do to keep body and soul together. The next day they all waited nervously for his arrival having heard all about him, that morning of his arrival Faye checked the suite to make sure things were perfect, satisfied with the way things were she went back into other room to finish up her cleaning before the meeting starts.

Fees hours later, having done her duties including everyone she was talking to a co-worker when the entrance door swung opened, all chatter stopped when the man walked in, the air in his place seems to stand still. He was tall, dark skinned and handsome, he walked into the hotel with the aura of a man who knew no fear, despite under his tailored suit Faye could tell he was very muscular, but his face.......... He was actually on black glass.

As the new owner walked up to the receptionist, her hands visible shook as she handed the keys to him, the new owner removed his eye glass and just a split of second Faye's eyes met him before he closed the door, a cold chill ran up her spine as the way his dark eyes stared into hers.

The staffs were summoned to the ball room an hour later after his arrival, while waiting for him to make his entry the second time everyone where whispering but it ceased when he entered the room. Faye gazed at his dominating figure, beads of sweat broke out of her forehead as hed heartbeat skyrocketed, her hands shook as she quickly hid it behind her.

There he was in all his glory standing tall and proud before them was the new owner and new boss this time he wasn't on any eye glass, his intense gaze fixed on her burning straight into her forehead as she couldn't blink or remove her eyes, Faye mouth suddenly became dry as she stared at the only object of her wayward emotions, one whose presence singlehandedly make her feet weak, one whose touch has the capability to take her into meltdown mode, that man was no other than Daylan Sage! The new owner of Sheraton hotel and her once Ex boss turned New boss.

Faye heart sank.

Daylan cleared his throat as all eyes snapped back at him, "I received this petition, and all I have to say as the new owner of this place is that this hotel is closing" taking the paper he tore it into shreds and threw it to the floor.

Everyone gasped in shock as they stared at each other, some were already crying, as Daylan turned to leave Faye shouted.

"No!" That's not nice, you haven't even let us discuss with you, atleast you should have listened to what we have in mind, aren't we human? That is not fair atall. Fear gripped her when Daylan stopped on his track.

She swallowed hard and continued, "many here depend on this job for their well being, many young employee here fund their education all thanks to this job, if the economy is favourable to you, sir it's not favourable to is and we need this job more than anything else.

"Sir?" Daylan scoffed and cringe at that word.

Something stirred withing him when he heard her voice, that voice that makes him go crazy when he plung deep inside her, that voice he had missed for four years, how he had terribly missed her face, her hands, bed skin and laughter. She left him despite the fact that he did everything in his power to make her forgive him, Faye downgraded him, rejected him and fled. Weeks and months he fruitlessly searched for her, no one could tell her location not until he hired the best P.I in the world who told him where she was after 3months.

Daylan could not believe Faye left, only to move over to NYC taking the job of a maid, a full time maid, he swore to get her wherever she was, he swore to buy that hotel to make her work for him again, and this time she is going no where. As he swore here he was standing presently in the same room with his Ex secretary now maid.

Daylan turned around and asked in a low firm tone that sent shivers through everyone presently in the room, " who said that?"

No one moved, no one said a word not until a maid pushed Faye forward making her stumble, Daylan breath hitched when his eyes met her, masking up his emotions he quickly put on his bossy attitude, "You!" He pointed to her indicating her to come forward with his finger.

Putting her hands behind her back Faye Slowly while feeling as though her legs would give out underneath her, "what's your name?"

Huh? Faye looked up immediately, was he seriously asking her name? She almost scoffed, casting her eyes down afraid if she look up she might roll her eyes at him.

"Look at me when I speak to you!" He snapped harshly. Faye snapped her head up and peered into the once familiar dark eyes who were now cold and held no ounce of warmth in their depth. She gluped, "Faye Smith sir"

"How old are you?" He asked as his taunting gaze raked over her body come head to toe, she hadn't change a bit, still thesame alluring eyes, attractive plump lip and prefect curvy body.

"Twenty six sir" she answered nervously. Daylan scoffed " you look eighteen though, like a kid"

"I'm not a kid!" She snapped at him but quickly keep her anger in check, Daylan exhaled as he dipped his hands in his pocket, "what's your job here?"

"A maid sir" she said looking down at her feet probably embarrassed.

Daylan smirked.

"Then you will be the one to clean my room by eight tomorrow morning, one minute after eight I will make sure you're fired and nobody will employ you anywhere in the world. Faye could feel her lip tremble,she knew all eyes were on her when she spoke " will you not listen to our petition which might change your mind?"

"I never change my mind once I have decide Mrs Faye Smith, or do you? He raised a brow at her.

"Mrs Faye Smith?"........ Did he just call her Mrs?

Daylan turned to the others, " I suggest you all go back to your position or you are fired? Turning back he walked out followed by his bodyguard. Faye stood rooted in the spot as she still couldn't believe what he just called her, 'Mrs Faye Smit?" Who the hell told him she was married?

Faye had trouble sleeping that night, the way his eyes starred into hers, she could see the glow in them but it was dim.....too dim, she hoped that maybe if she tried talking to him again he might listen to her......Daylan always listen to her.
