Chapter One Hundred and Nineteen – Special-2

I don’t plan on going anywhere anytime soon. “You are stuck with me,” he says, family-like. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Now, get some rest, he says before hanging up. I smile to myself before settling back down in bed.

It’s hard for me to focus; I am trying my best not to fall asleep at my desk. I had about two hours of sleep last night. I am fueled on coffee and energy drinks. Thankfully, there isn’t much for me to do since Wyatt isn’t in the office. I was tempted to come in, but decided against it. I can leave early, though.

Wyatt should be back by tonight. They got the clients. A multi-million-dollar deal. He seemed excited. All that they did paid off. It also means I get my man back. I lay my head on my desk. The tiredness is causing a headache. Hopefully, the painkillers will kick in soon.

A kick at the office door ruins my plan. I groan and sit up. The door opens. “Alya?” a man I don’t know asks.

I stand from my desk. “What is it? Can I help you?”

“I have a delivery for you from Sir Suttan.” He smiles.

Wyatt has sent me something. I tell him to come in. He steps in with a large gift basket. What on earth has he sent me? I sigh, thank him, and he leaves. I take the basket to my desk and open it. My eyes widen when I see the amount of things inside.

It has all my favorite things: candies, chocolates, tea, and coffee. It has books, perfume, and skincare. There are some different colored artificial flowers in it, too. He pampers me so much. He makes me feel like the only woman in the world.

I continue taking the items out. There are jewelry boxes, too. He didn’t need to add those, not after everything else. I start with the biggest one. Inside is a stunning diamond necklace. It is so pretty. I put it on immediately. I move to the second one. It consists of a lovely pair of emerald earrings. The last box has a beautiful opal bracelet. How much did he…

…now what? He spent some of his winnings on me. I am overwhelmed by everything. I appreciate them, I really do, but I wish he wouldn’t spend so much money on me. That came with the note:

Please, don’t be mad at me for spoiling you. You deserve the world, angel, and I want to give it to you. – Wyatt

The tears brim in my eyes as I read it. What did I do to deserve him? I have never felt so special until Wyatt. He makes me feel a way no one has. Being in love feels like this, doesn't he? Am I in love with him? I am… does he feel the same? I don’t know. It wasn’t supposed to happen, or part of the plan for us. Then again, I never expected things to be how they are now when we started.

I wipe the tears and grab my cell. Wyatt, I text, Thank you so much for the beautiful gift basket. Everything is perfect. You are amazing, and I can’t wait to see you tonight, x

I wish I could spoil him the same way he does me. I just need to gift him in other ways.

You are welcome, angel. I am happy you love everything. You’ve been through a lot because of… please get home as quickly as possible and…

…feel like he’s been away for weeks, not a few days. Honestly, I can’t wait to have him back home with me.

You did deserve it, you. You make me feel like I can’t wait. 19199
