The Sheik's Reluctant Hostage (The Quabeca Sheiks 2)

* * * * *

Saja could barely walk. Her legs felt wobbly. She was still out of breath and felt a bit disoriented. It always took her a while to come back to her senses after they had sex. He took her to another world. She felt things that she could not explain. Her body would sing songs in every language. Saja kept sighing with pleasure as she picked up her clothes and got dressed.

“I'm going into town,” Saja announced as she wrapped her arms around him.

Hugging her tight, he kissed the top of her head. “Come back soon,” he replied as he grabbed her bottom.

“I will,” she said as she kissed him. “Good luck with that,” she added as she looked at his desk. His paperwork was all over the place. They had completely messed everything up. Saja laughed and kissed him on the cheek before heading for the door.

“You're not even going to help me clean this up?” Basil complained as Saja walked to the door.

“Nope.”

Basil shook his head and started picking up the papers. Saja blew him a kiss and shut the door behind her. Basil smiled to himself. Every little thing that she did made him smile. He loved her so much more than she knew.

Mona and Amber stood up when Saja walked out of Basil's office. They had been waiting for her for a while. They figured out what was going on when they saw her scruffy hair. She was still trying to fix it. She smiled at them and straightened her top.

“Let's go,” Saja said to them.

“Feeling delightful?” Mona teased. She could not help but tease Saja.

“What?” She turned her head and looked at her before she started laughing. “Erm, you could say that,” she added and kept laughing.

“Well, they are still in their newlywed stage. I guess it means they can do it anywhere,” Amber said.

“Did you hear us?” Saja's cheeks turned red.

“Oh no, don't worry,” Mona started laughing. She blushed at the thought of hearing them. That would be extremely awkward.

The three of them headed to the garage. Amber handed Saja the keys. She was excited to be able to drive. She like

d large SUVs, but she never thought that she would be able to drive one, as they were too expensive.

“Hehe,” Saja giggled with excitement as she stuck the key in the ignition. She buckled her seatbelt and started reversing the SUV out of the garage. Mona was sitting in the front passenger seat and Amber sat in the back. Saja was headed to explore the area. She realised that since she had been in Quabeca, she had not really seen it.

Saja had the window open and was enjoying breeze while she drove. The roads were so different to the roads in London. It was difficult to drive in central London. There was always a lot of traffic and parking was always difficult. It was simply easier to take the Tube. In Quabeca, the roads were large and there wasn't much traffic. The air was clean. She loved it more than she thought she would.

“We are here,” Saja said as she parked. “I think?” she added and turned to look at Mona.

“We are,” Mona said and smiled.

As they got out, Saja stood there with her hands on her hips looking at the large indoor mall. It was elegantly built. She started walking towards it. While she was not usually someone who spent much time shopping, she was looking forward to seeing what it was like inside. The architecture was intriguing and it was very different to the malls she was used to in London.

“Is that Saja?” Akeem asked as he pointed her out to his mother and brother, Aman. The three of them were sitting in the car preparing to leave when they saw her.

“It is that bitch indeed,” Abia said vehemently. Her expression darkened as soon as she saw Saja. The very sight of her made her skin crawl. Her mouth watered with hunger for revenge.

“Any sight of the Prince?” Aman asked.

“No, only the two other women,” Akeem replied.

They decided to wait in the car until she returned as Abia wanted to confront her. Since she was faced with the opportunity, she was not going to let it go. Her husband was at home with their other son still packing. The thought of it angered her. They had less than a week left to move out of the house. She was not ready to do that yet. She had birthed and raised her sons in that house. It was not easy to let go.

Chapter 4

Saja and her two maids walked around the mall, admiring the extravagance. Saja found herself standing in front of a lingerie shop. She wanted to buy something sexy to wear for Basil. Jordan was always in her ear about it. She had suggested that it would be a great adventure for their marriage if she dressed up a little for him. As Saja wandered around the store, she felt lost. She had no idea what to choose.
