Chapter 5 His Gift

Enjoy.❤️

It's been almost five months since I started working at Steals Inc. Everything has been running smooth. The money I am getting paid motivates me everyday.

Being able to hang out with co-workers and have great times on the weekend and pamper myself, felt amazing. Just finally being able to live after my unusual encounter with Steals.

He on the other hasn't payed me much attention since the incident that happened in my office. The next day when I came to work, it was like nothing happened. We rarely communicated unless the topic related to work. Though sometimes in the workspace I felt eyes watching me I never can found out who. At times I become of task, wondering why this had such effect on me.

Bryan and I on the other hand are, associates kinda I had grown to somewhat like him. Turns out he was moved to another department days after Klaus had to me to stay away. I never mentioned it to Bryan who I talked here and there. My guts keeps telling me he's in to me but I doubt that. I've been trying to ignore him ever since, not in a rude way. Then there is another feeling in my guts every time I go near Bryan, I remember the threats Klaus had made. It gives me goosebumps .

Anyways, this week I am "celebrating" my birthday, and I couldn't be more excited. I badly would to throw a party or something especially since I have never gone out for my birthday.

I had narrow my plans to go to a club though my birthday was on a week day celebrating on the weekend wouldn't hurt. This would be my third time probably going there, though a place with nice energy I'd rather be home.

I looked myself over in the mirror. Not gonna lie I looked smoking! Okay, I was feeling myself as I did a little hip shake. I wore a black slimmed fitting dress. It was long sleeved and decorated by white jewel like decors. I paired it with laced up heels and a hand purse. My hair was done with long wavy weave extensions, my face had a nice beat, I was glowing.

~~~~~~~

I was getting bored and need another drink at the bar. I was so scared to step out of my comfort zone just to dance.

Trust me If someone else was her with me I would've enjoyed this a bit better. All the men here where wanting a quick fuck and I wasn't looking for that.

Then magically as If I had my mind read a guy approached me he was quite decent.

"You wanna dance." He said he said with a white pearly smile.

I gulped down the rest of my drink. "Yes!" I said moving my hips. I had forgotten my hand purse on the bar's island already letting the alcohol get in my system.

The beat of the music rang loudly in my head. It really wasn't this loud and good when I was hanging at the bar.

***

A few songs later and a couple of drinks, I felt like I was on top of the world.

I bite my lip unintentionally and receive a low growl from the guy. I grind my bum on his front filling his erection. Barely. The song playing had me moving my body in ways I didn't know I can move. I bet this guy was enjoying it, we won't be seeing each other again anyways. He spun me around in his arms.

"Wow your beautiful." He said ice the loud music.

"Thank you!" I said. The stranger and I looked each other in the eyes. This guys better not think where about the have a one night stand. His lips seemed to be getting closer.

"Your not getting in my pants silly." I was drunk... On a scale of one through ten I was pretty sure I was a nine.

"We can kiss and that's it!" I said rubbing my hands up and down his chest clearly out of it.

"As you say princess."

We were inches from kissing. I felt his breath on my lips anticipated to kiss me. The breath quickly evaporated as I was pulled away from him.

"Alright that's enough!" a deep voice cut into our moment.

Hell no.

As drunk as I was, I gasped crushed at the thought of Klaus out of all people being here.

"What the fuck man?" The stranger I was dancing with said with his hands raised.

"Camila we are leaving!" Klaus stated ignoring the guys comment, it didn't even come out as a question.

I turn to see Klaus's nose flaring.

"I am not going anywhere with you. I don't know who you are to sniff your nose...." Klaus cut my sentence short by pulling me to his chest. He smelled so good.

"You smell so good." I said a loud. " I said that out loud didn't I." I giggled drunkly and looked up at Klaus dark eyes. He didn't look happy at all.

The stranger suddenly said a remark that I distincly missed.

I was pushed aside making me stumble behind Klaus.

Klaus lashes at him with a punch straight in the nose several times. I let out a yap. "Get his ass outta my club." A group of security guards went to go pick up the stranger who had passed out on the floor.

This was his club. What didn't he own.

Music was still playing but everyone stood stiff, just looking at the scene that just happened. Making this my chance to leave. I was utterly shocked and embarrassed even in my drunken phase .

I swiftly moved out the sea of people making me was outside, I stumbled. The cold air hit me. My head was getting fuzzy. I took my phone out, ready to call an Uber. Already being drunk and clumsy I dropped my phone trying to locate my ride.

"Really." I said squatting to pick it up. My dress had raised to my mid thighs.

A hand had grabbed my upper arm tightly. I jumped ready to yell rape.

"When I said we are leaving, I didn't mean go outside and call an Uber Camila." Klaus whispered in my ear. He loved doing that.

A car, a luxurious car to be specific pulled up in front of us.

I pulled my arm away from him. "I am not getting in that car with you." I'm pretty sure my words slurred. I started walking the opposite direction of the club.

Klaus throw me over his shoulder as if I weighed nothing.

"Let me goooooo. You fucking embarrassed me! " I yelled.

"I'm going to fall!" I giggled, my mined was every where. Klaus remainder silence as he buckled me up in the car.

At this point I really wanted to get home, I couldn't complain because Klaus's stubborn self would never listen to me.

"Why the fuck would you think it was okay to do that?" I said looking out the window.

He didn't answer.

"Answer my fucking question?!" I said rolling my eyes at him.

Drunk me is not pretty. Let's pray I won't remember this.

"The cursing needs to stop." Klaus tightly clasped my thighs. His face was transfixed on the road his left squeezing the steering wheel.

"You had no business dancing with that guy."His voice quivered. His hands on my thigh, lightly grazed me softly.

I lowered my tone down, "That doesn't justify the fact that you just caused a scene for nothing." My breath hitched when he started tracing small circles with his thumb on my thigh.

"So, you were going to sleep with that man or something?" He growled.

"First off, I'm pretty sure I told the hard head that he wasn't getting in my pants. Second of all don't assume things like that about me."

"Good girl." Klaus said removing his hand from my thigh, placing it firmly back on the steering wheel.

His physical appearance was so appealing the car was pretty dark, I'd never seen him out of his work suit. Black shirt and jeans, was a look on him.

I decided to keep my lips zipped the rest of the ride. I didn't want my mouth getting me in anymore shit.

The permanent image of Klaus seeing me the way I was at the club disappointed me in someway. But I'm a grown, I shouldn't feel like a kid that's just been caught by there parent.

My head was throbbing to even think, I decide to lean my head against the cold window and let sleep take over.

***********

Klaus has realized that Camila, had fallen asleep once he pulled up to her house. She looked too peaceful to be woken up. Klaus's mind was still buzzing about what took place at the club tonight.

He was stalking Camila the minute she stepped up in the club. He watched the way her body grind on a man he knew she didn't know. He watched the sexy smile she keep giving the dude. He didn't like it one bit. The guys grimy hands were all over her. He just watched her from afar enjoying herself, getting drunk. He was frozen in time, every minute that went by he became angrier. He was already having a bad day at that, but when he saw Camila the angrier had vanished then once again returned. He had enough when he saw the strange whisper something in Camila's ear, making him walk through the crowd like his life depended on it, he wanted to pounce on the dude. There faces where getting closer. He couldn't stand to see this anymore.

Why was he feeling this way every time he saw this girl?

The question nagged him like a fly buzzing in his ear.

Eventually Klaus had to get Camila out the car. He park his car right in front of her place. It was a nice place for a person living alone. He took her purse she had left on the bar island at the club, he frowned his brows as he opened the door to pick her slump body in his arms. Something bad could've happened if someone else had gotten to her bag before he did. He took the apartment keys out of the purse before picking Camila up.

Camila had snuggled up in Klaus's arms. He liked it, it felt so right to him, he wished that the scenario was Camila falling asleep after a long night they had out. But Klaus never genuinely got in to relationships it wasn't his thing, he did have flings. Being raised by people he once called family, who barely raised him Klaus realized that he never learned how to treat a woman. People would have thought Klaus came from a wealthy family despite his success but it was the exact opposite. He climbed to the top himself, alone. His "people" didn't give two craps were he went after he turned 16. He took matters in his own hands, went to school and provided to his satisfaction. He had no time for anything else but his grind. Until Camila.

Klaus had managed to unlock the door the house was dark, he touched to walls searching for light.

The welcoming smell he loved about Camila hit his nose. He went in no time finding Camila's room.

His eyes analyzed the house as he went, it looked to cozy and warm. Everything was so clean and organized. As he walked down the dim hallway, he found her haven.

He laid her down, took her heels over and tucked her in. He sucked in a breath realizing that he was in her house. He started at Camila. Listened to her small breaths as she sleep.

He had to leave, this wasn't his place to be he thought as he quickly exited the room.

~~~~~~~~~

It was two days after my "celebration" at the club. The club in which Klaus owned.

I had remembered a few things that happened that night and I was currently sharing it with a friend at work.

"Yeah, I don't remember much. Just me dancing with a guy then getting a ride someone , who punched this dude." I said taking a bite from my food. I disclosed on who was who and some events that I couldn't remember. I just wanted to vent

"So you just ended up home mysteriously?" my coworker said raising her brows.

"I think I got a ride." I said.

"But I don't know how I ended up in bed." I questioned myself. My heart beaten hard when I thought about it.

The morning after I awake with a mild headache. Everything in my house was fine. I didn't feel harmed in anyway and my purse wasn't missing.

I badly wanted to talk to Klaus about what happened but he was away on a work trip, leaving me with piles of work.

I was halfway done creating his presentation for tomorrows meeting that I'd be attending as soon as he got back from his trip.

"Hey, have to get back to work." my peer said throwing her scraps away.

"Go ahead I have work to finish myself. We both know if Klaus was here, he'd chase us to finish up." I said rolling my eyes with a sigh.

***

After work I made a pit stop for groceries getting ingredients to bake as soon as I got in my driveway. I took my grocery bags in anticipation to go make myself a cake.

I figured baking would take my mind off this agonizing memory that happened on Saturday. I smiled as I walked through the doors of my apartment.

**********

It was the next morning and I was just ready to step out my door to go to work, but that didn't gifts and flowers were being handed to me.

"Happy Birthday Camila!" a statement made by one of the delivers holding out dozens of roses to me.

Who would go out of there way to get me all of these gifts.

I instantly assumed Bryan must've known but I don't remember sharing that with him.

"Thank you.." I said slowly opening my door to let the placement of gifts fill up my dining table. The items were placed down. I was so in thought that I didn't realize when the delivers left.

I rushed over to the roses that held a note card. I totally didn't forget about work, but all of these gift in my living room made me squeal.

I hope you love your gifts. Take the day off and enjoy your day.

-Klaus Steals.

My heart beat escalated.

He knew when my birthday was... of courses he'd know he has files of me. He probably did this for all of his assistants.

I was some what uneasy the thought of Klaus thinking of me made my insides warm.

My phone ringing brought me out of thought. It was indeed him.

"Hello." I said tucking my hair behind my ear. Nervous can you say.

"I assume you like you gifts."

"I'm sending them back." I said looking at all the luxurious bags on my couch such a tease.

"That's not an option bebe. Did you look into the the white box with the silver wrapping." He said. Coincidentally my hands where already touching the box, I sucked in a deep breath.

My eyes closed at the thought of him watching me.

"I want you to open it." He said. Inside was stunning necklace. It was so simple yet incredibly beautiful.

"Why?" I said plopping myself on the couch. I took off my heels. Knowing that I wouldn't want to head to work to face him.

"Why, what?" Klaus said in a cock manner. I can envision him in his office feet resting high on his desk leaning back in his seat.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about."

"The fact that I bought you gifts for your birthday."

"Yes." I said with a shudder.

"That's for me to know Camila... but I can tell this while I was away on my business trip I stumbled upon that very necklace and instantly thought of it around your neck."

"Must be nice to treat your assistants with gifts." I fumbled over my words.

"Only you." Klaus said before hanging up the phone.

I sat with the necklace dangling from my fingers. I was in daze. Out of all things in my mind I remember Klaus drawing small circles on my leg.

What was this man doing to me...
