Daniel's P.O.V

There was no backing down in this. It wasn't as if I wanted to torture myself but Tiara wasn't making it easy for me in any way. Everyone was assembled in the club; all work no fun is no fun, according to my sister the master planner. So, we were having fun in the V.I.P. section of the club when Fikkie decided to go call Tiara.

Honestly, I was eager to see her, but I hadn't expected her to come in when a bum short so short it could pass off as panties. It doesn't help that the curve of her backside was more prominent, and her long sinful leg was out there for me to see.

"Damn! That babe is hot oh." Segun whispered to his friend beside him.

Okay. Maybe it wasn't just me eyeing her but that didn't make it easier to look away. I felt a pinch by my side and turned to see Tina. I cursed lowly. I had forgotten about my girlfriend who was right beside me.

"Why don't you glue your eyes permanently on her?" She whispered in my ears.

I frowned. I didn't want her trouble here, and not replying to Tina was writing a letter to trouble itself. "What! I am just enjoying the environment. We came here to have fun, babe."

"And does your fun mean eye-raping a childhood friend? I don't like this Dan."

I closed my eyes and leaned back on the chair. My drink was long forgotten on the table before us. The music that I had been enjoying now sounded like noise. Tina had a way of getting to me. She was too clingy and had something to say about everything and anything I did. Even if I wasn't looking at Tiara, I was certain Tina would have something else to complain about.

I felt her hand move slowly on my trousers until it stopped at my tight, "Babe, what does she have that I don't? How can she make you feel that I can't? I don't understand why you are so infatuated by her. Look, she is just a low-key prostitute."

She was glaring at Tiara who was now positioned in the middle of two guys, her legs crossed but those sinful nipples that I had pinched early in the day were calling onto me. All they were doing was having a conversation, I had no idea how that labelled her as a low-key prostitute. But, telling that to Tina is pouring fuel into a burning fire. So, I nodded and forced my gaze back to my fiancée who looked like she was going to be in tears anytime.

"Darling, I have no idea what you are talking about. You're my everything. You're it for me."

If there was something I knew, I know how Tina loved to be reassured of these things. I wasn't expecting something serious from Tiara, so I wasn't going to throw away my relationship with her. She told me herself, that she had a fiancée, and all I needed from her was just a short time. Just to get rid of this intoxication from my body.

"Then prove it, babe."

I looked towards Tiara. She wasn't sparing me a glance in any way. She was so deep in a conversation with Moses.

I turned back towards my girlfriend awaiting assurance. "What do I need to do?"

A ghost of a smile appeared on her lips, "Kiss me."

Before she could start thinking I doubted my affection for her, I pulled her on my lap and sealed our lips together. It was one of the guys that howled at us first, and then I heard, "Get a room, niggas!"

I didn't stop; I continued kissing my fiancée until she pulled away. She smiled fully now. "Are we good now?"

She nodded. "Of course, we are."

When I looked back at Tiara, she was looking at me... unapologetically. I picked up my drink and finished it at one goal.

"I had no idea my brother is a big fan of PDA" Fikkie's voice was loud. She leaned into her fiancée as if she was about to become one with him. And I knew what she was trying to do. She hated Tina. From the first day I had introduced Tina to her, they just never seemed to click. I had asked her times without numbers what the problem was, but there was none. The same went with Tina, so I gave up. "I thought we were here to prepare for my wedding but it is obvious they are a more passionate couple here. It's good to see."

Tina, my ever fiancée, who could never give up in challenges picked up, "I know right? Your brother just loves me so much, that he can't pass up the idea of touching me in public." She batted her lashes in the way women do, that I never seemed to understand.

Tina was talking to my sister, but her gaze flicked to Tiara. It was a nano-second but I saw it.

Fikkie nodded, "it's good to see you both in love. I guess we should be planning another wedding soon."

I pinched my nose. If I didn't do something, this would turn into something else like it had always turned. "Come on, darling. Let's get on the dance floor."

Luckily I was able to drag Tina to the dance floor, with my hand on the low of her back, she had forgotten about my sister. She sways slowly to the beat, trying to get me in the mood, but my mind was elsewhere.

How was I supposed to get Tiara alone tonight?

Tina turned backwards, grinding her ass on me. It had always been a turn-on for me, but I wasn't turned on at the moment. I allowed her to do her thing, before guiding her back slowly to our room. I know what she wanted and I would give it to her just the way she wanted.

Immediately, I closed the door behind us, Tina was on me, her lips sucking mine out. I smiled against her lips. Maybe, I should try this, it might just make me stop thinking about Tiara.

It did just the opposite. I was imagining my fiancée as Tiara, so I broke off the kiss.

Tina frowned, "What's wrong?"

I walked into the room and dropped on the bed. "I'm sorry but I can't, darling. I'm not in the mood."

Her frown deepened. "You haven't been in the mood since we got here. What's going on? You're never like this."

I know. But how was I supposed to be having sex with my fiancée while thinking of another woman? I'll never stoop that low with my fiancée. I rather go through her series of insults.

"Are you going to keep quiet? You won't say a word."

What was I supposed to say?

Annoyed, she dressed up back. "I can't sleep in the same room as you tonight. I'll book another room."

She ran out before I could stop her. I wanted to go after her, but I knew there was nothing I could do for her. I know what she wanted and I couldn't give it to her. I lay on my bed and cursed slowly.

Fuck!

What was wrong with me?

I have never had a trouble of getting it up with a woman. I was no saint, and had cheated on Tina numerous times without feeling this way, so why was this different? Hot, I went into the shower to cool myself down.

I brought out my laptop to do some work; maybe it would draw my mind off her. If there was something I loved so much, it was my work. I love doing it, and it was the reason it was easy for me to do, it successfully. I had tried different things and easily got bored of them, but designing had never bored me.

Soon, I was so deep into my work that I lost track of time.

Thankfully, I fell asleep the moment I dropped on my bed.
