Chapter 15: The Storm

Azim Hafeez

I roll my eyes at her panic, "Come Habibti, I thought you'd love this opportunity."

She gives me a side glare, "You disgust me."

"Stop it, your flattering me," I walk to the side of the roof with the ladder and begin to climb down.

"Uhm... where did that ladder come from?" She asks me.

I raise an eyebrow, "I put it there."

"So you're telling me I never had to climb the..." she trails off then looks at me, "I don't like you."

I am very confused, "I believe we have already established that," I state as I climb the rest of the way down. She follows mumbling about the ladder for some reason.

We reach his car and he opens the door for me, such a gentleman, I roll my eyes.

I notice he has a new car. This time his car is a jet black Rolls Royce ... it's beautiful, Mashallah, but I don't tell him that, "A new car?"

"Of course, only the best."

He realizes that I'm not going to get in the car unless he does, so he leaves the door open and walks to the other side. I look around and get in the car. It's not like anyone would suspect anything of me because he's now my... husband, but I'm better safe than sorry. We begin to drive, thankfully he doesn't say a word.

We arrive at the house and I look up to see a mansion slightly bigger than the one Katia has in Russia. It's beautiful, but I don't show it. He walks to the door, and get I get out of the car, when I feel eyes on my back I ask, "Where exactly are your guards?"

His eyes darken with mischief at my question, "They're everywhere Habibti," he leans in to whisper in my ear, "you just can't see them."

I smile at that, he has no idea that I knew they were here, I just needed to know for sure. "I'll find them in due time."

"Keep telling yourself that," he says as I roll my eyes. He places his hand on the door handle and his fingerprint gets scanned, then another scanner pops out of the door, and scans his eye. "So what would you do if the power went out?"

"I have my ways," he winks.

"Ew."

He opens the door, and I glance inside. I truly wish I didn't, because I let out a piercing scream...

Azim Hafeez

I grimace at her scream, as she jumps behind my back and holds on to my waist for dear life.

"WHAT IS THAT!?" She yells.

I attempt to pry her hands off my waist, though her death grip doesn't loosen, so I answer, "That," I point at Laith, "is my tiger."

Her grip tightens, "Well get it out of the house!"

"Now why would I do that? He's a trained tiger and he wouldn't hurt anyone if he's not threatened," I state as I finally loosen her death grip, "Who knew you'd finally get close to me like this on our first night together," I smirk. She quickly loses her hold on my waist, though she continues to stand behind me.

"Don't tell me that you're, Afraid of animals?"

"Of course not," the fear is in her eyes, but she hardens them and crosses her arms, "so are we going to stand here all night or what?"

"Your emotions will be the death of me."
