"But I wasn't, so I'm making it up to you now" she smiled.

Michael glanced at his wristwatch "it's getting late."

"Don't worry, I'm sure your darling wife will understand. We are not doing anything but having a simple dinner, not that I don't want to anyway."

Michael heaved a sigh "I don't want to eat dinner."

"Then you can't refuse my drink."

"What if I do?"

"It will be considered rude. You didn't eat dinner and you also won't drink, what is the proof that you are not angry with me for not attending your wedding?"

Staring at her, Michael reached for his glass and took a sip, Amanda smiled at that "happy now?"

"Not if you finish at least that glass."

Michael rolled his eyes and finished the wine in the glass "there, can I go now?"

"Michael, why do you always treat me like I'm not a woman?"

"I address you as 'she' and 'her' how is that not treating you like a woman?"

Amanda chuckled at that "you know that's not what I mean."

"What do you mean then?" He inquired with a raised eyebrow.

Amanda smiled and looked out through the glass wall to the street, she sighed before looking at him again "I don't know."

Michael wanted to reply but he suddenly felt a burning feeling all over his body, his ears turned red, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, he creased his brows but Amanda had noticed his discomfort immediately "are you okay?" She asked.

Michael looked at her but he can't even answer, the burning feeling was only increasing minutes by minutes. Amanda got up from her seat and walked to him, she placed a hand on his shoulder "are you feeling unwell, would you like to lie down?"  She inquired.

Michael looked at her hand on his shoulder, he doesn't like her touching him but now he can't even push her away, rather he wants her to touch him more, he was surprised at his feelings, how is that possible? Amanda reached to unbutton his shirt "you are hot, why don't you take of your suit. Oh, I almost forgot, you will never do that in public. I have a room upstairs would you like to go up or better still it's your hotel, you have a suite here, should I help you up there?"

Michael was feeling less and less comfortable and more and more horny and hot, all her offers were tempting but he can't get himself to accept any. He looked out the glass wall and saw Gary looking at him, he looked worried. Michael in his life has never felt happy seeing Gary like he did now. Seeing the look in his eyes and how the lady was touching his boss and he let her, Gary knew something was wrong and rushed into the hotel immediately.

Amanda was still trying to get Michael to go upstairs with her when Gary arrived "boss?" He said and Michael looked at him, gratefulness full in his eyes which Gary froze for some seconds on seeing.

"Take me home" Michael whispered.

"Yes boss" Gary walked to him immediately and helped him up. Amanda watched Gary help Michael out of the hotel and anger flushed on her face, she had planned everything well, how did it end up in ruins? She knew Michael will hunt her tomorrow but she thought the deed would already be done and will gladly face whatever punishment he will bring to her and now? What's the point of suffering when she didn't get what she want in the end? 

Out of anger, she picked up the bottle of wine and smashed it on the floor, a waiter approached her but she slapped him and picked up her phone to make a call "book me a flight to Amsterdam now" she got up and left the hotel.

Michael rest his head on the backseat of his limousine "how are you feeling now boss?" He heard Gary asked through the intercom.

"Hot" was his reply and Gary swallowed "what do you think she did to me?"

"Em, boss if I'm to answer, I will say she drugged you."

"But when? I was sitting right opposite her the whole time."

"She might have had everything planned before you arrived."

Michael licked his lips, his whole body was on fire and he was feeling really horny "what I'm I to do now?" 

Gary wanted to curse, his boss is intelligent in every other thing but when it comes to women, he was still a novice and pretty much naïve, what did he want him to answer now? To tell him to make love to a woman? Hell no, he still values his life "I'm waiting Gary" he heard his boss say.

"Em, I don't know boss...I'm not familiar with drugs."

"How can you not know?" Michael snapped.

"I don't know boss, I have never been drugged before" Gary swallowed.

Michael sighed, he wiped his eyes with his index and thump fingers "take me home then."

Gary heaved a sigh of relief, don't worry boss, you have a wife waiting at home, you will know what to do when you see her, it will come naturally to you, Gary thought with a smile.

They arrived at the mansion minutes later and Gary helped him out of the car "should I help you in sir?"
