Chapter 230 – Beginning with a Daring Encounter

Aurora typed her number on his phone and dialed it, before saving it, and then she proceeded to his phone’s clock to set a reminder with the title, ‘Give Aura A Call’.

“Now you can’t say you forgot to give me a call,” she said with a smile as she returned his phone to him and stood up.

Harry glanced at the phone and smiled when he saw what she had done. Although ladies had shown interest in him in the past, this was the first time a lady was actively pursuing him this way, and he had to admit that it was oddly flattering.

“I will give you a call,” he promised as he stood up, and escorted her out. He couldn’t wait to get back into his room and give Benne a call. He intended to brag to him about how Aurora was showing so much interest in him without him having to get piercings or color his hair like a teenager having an early life crisis.

After watching her drive off in her car, Harry returned inside and went straight to the suite which he shared with Jade. Once he walked inside, he went to her bedroom and rapped gently on the door.

“Give me a moment,” Jade called out as she threw on her decent enough sleeping robe over her skimpy see-through nightwear and tied it firmly around the waist before going to the door.

“For someone who claimed she wanted to make some phone calls, you look like you’re ready for bed,” Harry observed as he looked her over, feeling thankful that she was well covered.

Jade flashed him a smile, “You saw her off already?” She asked, ignoring his comment.

“Yes.”

“And?”

“And what?” Harry asked, staring at her blankly.

“You like her, don’t you?” Jade asked with a knowing smile, since she had expected him to scold her for running off the way she had done, but it seemed like he had no intention of doing that.

“She’s alright. I think I might go on a date with her after we must have solved your case. So have you heard from them? Did they arrive safely?”

“Yes, they did,” Jade assured him.

“And is Benne aware?” Harry asked, watching her closely

“I tried calling him earlier but he wasn’t taking his phone call. I’m sure he will call back, and then I can inform him,” Jade said with an easy smile.

“You’ll inform him after the guests have arrived and settled in at his home and he doesn’t have any choice than to let them stay there,” Harry pointed out flatly.

“Exactly! Not that I expect Benne to refuse. But if he says no, we do have another place they can go to,” Jade said with a grin, and Harry narrowed his eyes as he looked at her.

“No!” He refused flatly, and Jade giggled.

“Wow! You can now read my mind?” Jade asked, folding her hands on her chest as she looked at him.

“You better pray that your brother agrees to let them stay in his place,” Harry said as he turned to leave.

“Did I tell you that you look really hot in that turtle neck?” Jade asked as he walked away, making Harry turn to look at her.

“Are you flirting with me?” He asked with a slightly raised brow, and Jade rolled her eyes.

“Loosen up, Uncle Harry. I would tell the same to Benne and Bryan, and I’m sure neither of them would think I’m flirting with them.”

Harry looked at her for a moment, and without saying a word he turned around and walked away.

Jade had an amused smile on her face as she watched him leave, and only returned to her bedroom when she heard the sound of her ringtone.. She could tell it was a member of her family who was calling and she hoped it was Benne.

“I’m ready for the Nuru massage,” Bryan announced as he stepped out of the bathroom with a towel tied around his waist.

“I can’t believe you really want to do this tonight,” Sonia said with a small giggle as she watched him.

Earlier after her phone call with Celsie, she had come out, expecting Bryan to give Benne a call, but he had insisted that they have dinner and play games first. So they had both ended up playing mortal Kombat, and after playing several games, they ended in a tie, and he suggested they call it a night.

“Why not? It’s going to be fun,” Bryan said with an excited gleam in his eyes as he slowly made his way to the bed.

“And what about the phone call to your brother and Celsie which you said we were going to make after the games?” Sonia reminded him.

“I’m sure they can wait to hear from us in the morning, but I can’t wait. I think what my ankle needs to heal completely is this massage,” Bryan said with a mischievous grin, and Sonia laughed softly, but there was something else in her eyes.

“The massage has nothing to do with your ankles,” she reminded him.

“It doesn’t matter. Hurry up and get dressed. Or should I say, get undressed?” Bryan asked eagerly.

Sonia looked at him as though she wanted to say something, but cleared her throat instead, “Okay, give me a moment to shower, and then I will join you,” She said instead, giving him a look he couldn’t interpret as she walked into the bathroom.

Once she shut the door behind her, Bryan went to his nightstand and took out both a bottle of the massage gel, and a couple of relaxing lavender and jasmine scented candles, and then he lit the candles before turning off the lights in the bedroom.

After that, he placed the massage gel beside him as he lay on the bed, and scrolled through his music playlist as he waited for Sonia.

Once Sonia opened the bathroom door and stepped out, she looked around the room with a small smile on her face as she deeply inhaled the scents, “I see you’ve set the atmosphere,”

“Just one more thing left,” Bryan said as he picked up his home theatre’s remote control, and played Ed Sheeran’s ‘Kiss Me’. Soon the crooner’s voice filled the bedroom, and Bryan winked at Sonia, “Do you like it?”

“I absolutely love it! Did I tell you I’m a huge fan of Ed Sheeran’s?” Sonia asked as she slowly made her way to the bed still wrapped in her short towel.

“You can tell me all about it in bed,” Bryan said as he rolled over on his back, and took off the towel, exposing his bare ass.

Sonia smiled as she stopped at the foot of the bed and slowly let her towel drop to the floor. There was no point in being embarrassed since he had seen her very naked in the past.

Bryan felt his member swell as he gazed at her body lustfully. Her pink nipples were hard as though they were eagerly waiting for his lips to take them, and the muscles of her abdomen were taut, calling him to run his hands over her smooth honey-colored skin. His eyes moved from her body to her face, and they both stared deeply into each other’s eyes, each not saying a word even though their hearts were beating rapidly.
