A Desire To Last A Lifetime 11- "Naked bodies..."
The unexpected onset of uneasiness led me to put back the dress on its hanger and leave hurriedly. I went to the store where Chris was."Chris!" I immediately held onto his arm as I saw him and called his name.He was a bit surprised that I followed him. “Tami, hey. What’s wrong?” Before looking squarely into my eyes, he cast a momentary glance over my hands, which were quivering ever-so-slightly.I turned my head away and made every effort to relax. “Uhm, nothing’s wrong. I simply want to follow you here."He didn't say a word, but he kept staring at me the whole time as if he were trying to figure out what I was thinking simply by observing me and not breaking eye contact.In a nervous moment, I bit my lower lip.Okay, here's the thing—I am fully aware that this particular friend of mine knows me so well that he would be able to determine whether or not I am being truthful with him or whether I am telling him a lie.I finally straightened up and looked him in the eye, too. “Come o
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 12- "Intense!"
After Chris and I spent approximately an hour roaming the second floor, I finally found a perfect gift to give to Johann and Celyn. It was a matching set of luxurious, plush robes with a terry lining and an exterior with a textured weave made of the finest Turkish cotton. Perfect for newlyweds on their honeymoon to wrap themselves in on a relaxing Sunday morning.“It’s good that you already figured out what to give to them,” Chris said.“Come on, Chris! There’s a lot of things out there you can choose to give as your gift,” I cheered him up, and then I pointed to the towels, bedsheets, and everything.“I don't want to give them bedsheets or towels. I do not wish to send them cheap items,” he reasoned.I rolled my eyes. “The usual rich man’s problem!”He chuckled, amused. “Not really.”“If you don’t want to give them inexpensive things, then buy them a living room set or a flatscreen tv, refrigerator, or any useful appliances they can use inside their home!” I suggested.He winked at m
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 13- "Nice to see you again..."
Subconsciously, I immediately held on to Chris’s arm… tightly…My dear friend looked at my hand and up to meet my eyes.“Uhm, I think it’s better if we leave now…” I said, biting my lower lip.He was a bit puzzled. “Why? And all of a sudden?”“Uhm…” I was grasping some reasoning out of my mind though it was clouded with distraction because of the presence of the man who could just make my heart pound abnormally every time! “I remembered I forgot to look for something in the clothing section…”“Later. After strolling over here, let's just head back there, alright? For the time being, let me look for a book to gift to the couple."I couldn’t be eased anymore knowing that the macho hombre I had given myself with the night I was drunk was just a walk away from where we were standing right at the moment! I was no longer even able to smile! D*mn it!The hold of my hand on my friend’s arm became tighter. “Chris, please?”He was about to insist that we should stay here but the moment he saw
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 14- "Trapped!"
My eyes widened when I recognized that deep, husky voice! How could I ever forget that when it was such music in my ear the way he moaned when we were making love in the bed! I could never be mistaken! I knew it was him—the person I have been trying to avoid having an encounter with since that night!He was only right behind me, pressing his body on my back, and sending shivers all over my already seduced insanity!"Get... off... me..." It was almost a whisper that came out of my mouth."No..." he continued seducing me.A deja vu suddenly popped up in my mind. A deja vu of the images of the two of us giving each other mutual pleasures. It felt like all the memories we made that hot night came back to me. D*mn it!"Who's that boy with you, huh?" he asked me huskily.I didn't answer. I just closed my eyes tightly to the sensation he was making me feel."After giving yourself to me, I would just see you going out with somebody else today!" he possessively said while snaking his arm arou
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 15- "Trembling..."
"Not until you remember what we had that night,” he answered, unbothered.My body began to tremble.Is he thinking about violating me here inside his car, where he is completely free to treat me however he pleases and there is no chance that anybody from the outside will overhear us?!"Let me make you remember the steamy, heated moment when our bodies became one... How much you embraced it, how much you needed my touch and my every thrust—I will make sure you never forget! I'll make you recall everything, including how much you cherished the moment I completely filled you inside!"He leaned closer to me as he hungrily reached for my lips. His hand ravished my boob and nailed my neck with his hard, long, wet kisses."Stop it!" I pushed him but it made no effect at all. "Stop it, you crazy idiot psychopath maniac! D*mn you!"He seemed to hear nothing, unwilling to listen to my angry curses."D*mn! Stop—Oh!" My supposed yell was immediately replaced by an unintentional very delicate moan
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 16- "Distracted."
I ran my fingers through my hair and fixed my slightly messed top then made sure the zipper of my pants was closed. I simply didn’t wanna look idiot just after what happened and what was almost about to happen!I shook my head at the thought. Stop it already, Tamara! Stop fantasizing about him!"Tamara!"The moment I saw Chris approaching, I knew I had to pull myself away from my thoughts about that"Chris!"“What happened to you, Tami? You took so long that I worried about you and decided to follow you here just to make sure you’re safe! Are you alright?”I massaged my temple and though still feeling frustrated, I managed to softly chuckle. Chris is just so genuine I couldn’t help but smile and float in the cloud of gratitude!I gave his shoulder a little tap. “Chris, I’m alright. There is absolutely no reason to worry. You see I’m alive and okay.”He was a bit relieved though not completely convinced yet. “But what took you so long?”“Uhm, I had a hard time finding my purse but yeah
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 17- "Following like a stalker!"
(Fabio's POV)I was selecting a gift for my sister—Natasya's upcoming birthday as I was in a women's shoe store. She loves shoes, so I figured I would buy one for her.I was searching the shoe section by myself, trying to find a pair that would both fit her feet and appeal to her, when I spotted a woman I recognized standing on the escalator leading up to the second floor.The lady looked very familiar. I wasn’t just completely sure if it was really her or maybe just a look-alike.As she was facing away from me and conversing with the man she was with, I was unable to get a proper view of her. She had a hand on the boy's arm and was gripping it firmly.Due to the fact that I couldn't see her in full totality, I focused my eye on the structure of her body. I was certain that I was seeing the body of the woman with whom I had just spent the night. I couldn't be wrong about it.Tamara?She looked tall, but not quite as tall as I am. The contour of her hips and butt were both picture-perf
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 18- "Investment."
(Tamara's POV)"DAD, what is it that you’re going to say?" The atmosphere wasn't strained, but I was nevertheless anxious to see my dad when he walked into his office at our home.He called me and stated that he wanted to talk to me because he had something to say.He nodded gently at me. "You take a seat first, my dear."I took a seat in the visitor's chair. Mom, who was joining him in quiet, was sitting in front of me."What is it, dad?"He sighed before mustering up the courage to speak his mind.“Tami, listen to me very carefully, okay?"I nodded. I knew exactly where we were headed with this discussion, and that didn't stop my anxiety. I was afraid that what I had overheard would be confirmed by his own mouth."About two years ago, I developed a gambling addiction after repeatedly visiting a casino. Since then, I have been unable to shake the feeling of excitement whenever I play. I tried to stay away from it since I realized it would only bring harm to me, my life, and us, but I

A Desire To Last A Lifetime EPILOGUE
(Tamara's POV) "Wait, Fab…" I grabbed my boyfriend's arm as we walked. He looked at me. "Are you sure about this? I worry that your mom is still mad about what happened…" He softly tapped my hand, giving me assurance. "She's not mad at you, believe me, Tamara. She's even nagging me to bring you into our house to be finally introduced as my girlfriend." It has been a month since we settled and cleared things up between the two of us, and then we started to be officially exclusively dating. Now, it's time that he's going to bring me to their house to introduce me to his family as his girlfriend. I couldn't help but worry. What if they're still disappointed? What if they won't accept me? "Hey, stop being so negative, and just cheer up, alright?" I nodded and finally smiled, gaining courage. "Yeah. You're right, Fab." He smiled and we continued to walk. I was surprised and very thankful that Fabio was indeed right because despite all the things that happened, the Wynnfors still
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 80- "Forgiveness & realizations."
I cut her off and silenced her with my lips.She was fighting it and resisting the urge to kiss me back."That would be our rule for today. Everytime that I'm talking and you're gonna butt in, interrupting me, I'm gonna punish you with kisses. Is that clear, baby?""No! F*ck you! Release me now, Fabio! D*mn it!""What happened in the mall, it wasn't like what you thought it was—""I'm not listening to you, idiot—"Since she butt in and interrupted me, I had to give her her punishment. I kissed her. Deeper and more passionate this time around.She still tried to fight it.And because she was betraying the urge of her own body, I have to make her realize how she wants me, too.My hot kisses went down to her neck and I started to lift the hem of her blouse, making my hand on the way to her breast and squeezed her. And she moaned at that."Fabio, please…"I chuckled huskily. "Please what, babe?""Stop…"She didn't mean that. From the need and fire of lust I could see in her eyes, I knew h
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 79- "Untie me!"
She was so dumbfounded that I confronted her and taught her a lesson like that."Jad—""No buts, Priscilla. And mind you, know your place. You are not my girlfriend anymore, and I can never go back to you. You are just a business partner at this moment and you are obliged to follow my rules the next time you wanna see me and talk to me, especially here in my office."Speechless, that what was she completely turned into."Not to mention, I knew what you did to Tamara, Priscilla. You were trying to shame and embarrass her to the public.""What?! H-how did you know about it?" She was starting to get nervous."Not too important how I did find out about it. But if you dare doing that again, if you dare lay a finger on even a single strand of her hair, I'm warning you, I would not like it. You know me, Priscilla, and you know how evil I could go when I see things I do not like. I would make sure that you wouldn't either like what I could go to you and to your family business—""Jad, please!
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 78- "Taking side..."
I thought we, both family sides, were just waiting for the tentative schedule to be married, but then something very unexpected happened. One day, her mother came to a presscon shocking all of us with her announcement that her daughter's engagement with me was canceled and Tamara was not marrying me anymore.The supposed marriage was cut short, and it was all because of Chris Salvatore who butt in the situation. He was appointed by his family to be the new founder and Chairman of S-Tech, and upon my investigation, S-Tech invested millions to help the Davis Elegance rise once again.Lucille Davis, Tamara's mom, knew that they would no longer be needing the Wynnfors because Chris himself acted like a hero to them and she was thinking they already have the Salvatores and their investment and therefore, they dumped us just like that.I didn't get mad totally at them, though, especially to her mother, because it was their decision. They thought that the greater help knocked on their door s
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 77- "His voice..."
(Fabio's POV)My attention had been caught when I saw somebody familiar at the premises of Wynnfor Apparel.I asked some of the personnel and I had confirmed it was Tamara. I also found out that she applied for a job in our company as one of our fashion designers.I watched her from head to toe. I could remember that the last time I saw her was in the mall after the night that she gave herself completely to me. I couldn't help it! I suddenly felt the throbbing in between my legs! D*mn it! Just by the sight of her could really turn me on so hard!Frowning a bit, I watched her 'til she was out of my sight because she proceeded to the HR for the job interview."Tell the HR right away to hold the interview with that woman."The personnel were a bit appalled. "Sir?"I told it to her once more, firmer and with an emphasizing tone to let her know that I was serious with what I was saying and I knew exactly what I was doing."Hold the interview with her from the HR, and instead, escort her to
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 76- "This is kidnapping!"
He was still in his suit and tie, that's maybe because he just got out from his work, too.His face seemed restless, serious, sad, and mad…"What are you doing here?" I asked bitterly.I could never forget how he made me such a fool by making me believe his flowery words that he likes me, but right after that, I just caught him kissing another woman in the mall!"We have to talk," he said firmly.I chuckled in sarcasm. "Talk? About what? About your cheating and then twisting the story as if I were to blame why you did such a stup*d move, huh?!"He let out a deep breath. "Tamara, you have to listen to me first.""Well, I don't want to because I don't have time for that. After work, I'm gonna be visiting and watching over my dad in the hospital," I said coldly.But he seemed to ignore that. Instead, he insisted, "Let's talk about us, Tamara."I smirked in disbelief. Is this some kind of a joke?! What else are we going to talk about when it's so obvious that he really is an a$$h0le!"Abo
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 75- "A heartbreaker!"
Chris watched her but it wasn't that long because he immediately attended to me. "Hey, are you alright? I'm sorry this has to happen, Tamara.""No, it's alright. Don't mind me. I'm okay, Chris.""Are you sure?"I nodded. "Yes."He sighed."You should've asked Venice, as well, if she was just alright. I admit, I pulled her hair hard because I was so mad at her. She must have been hurting, too."He didn't say a thing."Chris, I guess, somehow, Venice was right. You should've asked her side first before you scolded her," I gave him a gentle, friendly advice.He was quiet but I knew deep within him I was right, too.He simply nodded and gestured the way, "Let's get going now, Tamara. And don't worry, I'll just call her later to talk and patch things up."I smiled and agreed, "Yeah."We went to the department store to shop for some stuff because Chris told me that he was running out of his essentials so he needed to buy new ones.He was busy choosing from the various brands of spray deodor
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 74- "Catfight."
I grinned and I looked at my friend teasingly.Chris nodded formally. "Thanks. But I know."I chuckled. What a conceited man!Priscilla, who seemed not to notice or intentionally was ignoring the man's disinterest towards her, still extended her hand to him. "I'm Priscilla Zakaria, anyway."Chris just looked at her and her hand like subtly telling, 'The-f*ck-I-care-whoever-you-are-because-nobody-asked-and-I-wasn't-any-interested!'After a few seconds, Priscilla finally came to realize the man's indifference. And that embarrassed her a bit, being ignored and straight-up shown before her face that not every man would be lured by her cunningness!Chris turned to me and softly, he asked, "Let's go, Tamara."I smiled and nodded. "Let's go."I put my hand on his arm and he willingly obliged. Such a gentleman to me! But not to, obviously, gold-digging women.Before we went ahead, for the last time, I turned around to look at Priscilla to wave my sweetest goodbye.I smiled in victory against
A Desire To Last A Lifetime 73- "Starstruck!"
I was speechless… He was fantasizing of me becoming his wife? Oh, how I realized I loved that, too!"I really like you, Tamara." He surely stated while his stares focused on my lips."And so do I, Fabio," I admitted without reservation.His eyes became more intense.I resisted my smile though it was still very obvious. "If only you knew, too. I have a crush on you, boss!"His brow raised a bit but then he smiled sheepishly. "You have a crush on me?""Yeah!"We didn't know how exactly, but moments had been quick and we just found ourselves finishing our food and coffee in the shop and we ended up inside Fabio's car to cuddle and make up for the times and days and weeks that we had not been able to be together.His lips claimed mine. I closed my eyes in submission and I responded to his kisses. How I missed his kisses, as well!It was a long but indeed passionate kiss. However, it had to be cut short when I suddenly remembered something or must I say someone, and that's why I had to gen
