Gabriel groaned as he sat up in bed, his head pounding from the previous night's festivities. He rubbed his temples, trying to piece together the events of the past few hours. As his vision cleared, his eyes fell on Davina, who was lying sound asleep next to him.
Her red hair was splayed out on the pillow, her green eyes closed, and her naked body exposed. Gabriel's mind went blank as he realized that he had slept with his son Mikey's nanny and taken her virginity. He stared at her for a few seconds, his heart racing, before gently shaking her shoulder.
"Davina, wake up," he said, his voice hoarse.
Davina stirred and opened her eyes, blinking a few times as she tried to focus. When she saw Gabriel, she sat up abruptly, covering herself with the sheet.
"What the hell happened last night?" she demanded, her voice laced with anger and confusion.
Gabriel ran a hand through his white hair, taking a deep breath. "I... I don't know," he admitted, his blue eyes avoiding hers.
Davina scoffed and got out of bed, wrapping the sheet around her body. "You don't know? You don't remember sleeping with me?"
Gabriel looked at her, his expression pained. "I remember... I just don't know how it happened," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.
Davina rolled her eyes and walked towards the bathroom, stopping in front of the mirror. She looked at her reflection, her green eyes filled with disappointment.
"Great, I lost my virginity to my boss, the mafia boss, and now I have to face him every day," she muttered, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Gabriel walked towards her, his hands in his pockets. "Davina, I'm sorry," he said, his voice sincere.
Davina turned to him, her eyes narrowed. "Sorry? That's it? You're just sorry?"
Gabriel took a step closer, his blue eyes meeting hers. "No, it's not just that. I... I care about you, Davina," he said, his voice low and intense.
Davina raised an eyebrow. "You care about me? Is that why you took advantage of me when I was drunk?"
Gabriel sighed. "I didn't take advantage of you, Davina. You were a willing participant. I just didn't plan for it to happen like this."
Davina crossed her arms over her chest. "And when exactly did you plan for it to happen, Gabriel? When you hired me as your son's nanny?"
Gabriel ran a hand through his hair. "No, of course not. I never meant for this to happen. I just... I couldn't resist you, Davina. You're so strong, so controlling, so direct. I've never met a woman like you before."
Davina snorted. "Oh, please. You're just saying that because you feel guilty."
Gabriel shook his head. "No, I mean it. I've always been drawn to strong women. And you're the strongest woman I've ever met."
Davina looked at him, her eyes softening. "You really mean that?"
Gabriel nodded. "Yes, I do. I know I messed up, Davina. But I promise you, I will make it up to you."
Davina looked at him for a few seconds, her mind racing. She didn't know what to think or feel. She had always been attracted to Gabriel, but she never thought anything would happen between them. And now that it had, she didn't know what to do.
She took a deep breath. "Fine. I'll give you a chance to make it up to me. But if you mess up again, Gabriel, I'm out of here."
Gabriel nodded. "I understand. And I won't mess up again, Davina. I promise you that."
Davina looked at him, her eyes filled with determination. "Good. Because I won't tolerate any more bullshit from you, Gabriel."
Gabriel smiled. "I wouldn't expect anything less from you, Davina."
Davina smiled back, her heart racing. She couldn't believe what had happened between them. But she couldn't deny the spark that had ignited between them. She just hoped that Gabriel would keep his promise and not mess up again.
