The banquet begins with Aaron making a toast, along side his brothers, and to be honest I can hardly pick up anything, because I am focused on the food in front of me. When there's delicious food in front of me, I have this ghost in me that acts so stupid and oblivious to it.But I don't let it get to me, and every once in a while I raise my head up and grin, so it doesn't appear as though I'm only here for the food.On the other hand, I did hear Aaron raise a glass to his close friend Liam, as well as to Liam's wife and a couple of other visitors who he called.And then he says that he's going to make a toast to the continued success of his business collaboration with Liam, as well as something about a new firm.Please, all I want is some food.After what seems like an eternity, the toasts are finally over, and an orchestra begins to perform at the opposite end of the room. Aaron, who at the head of the table made an announcement that after the feast, everyone is free to move to th
"I got her on her feet, and instead of apologizing that she bumped into me the first thing she says is 'Fuck, you have pretty eyes." Everyone couldn't help but laugh, but I don't laugh as it all starts to come back to Me. No freaking way. "Shut up! That was you?" I don't know when I yell. I purse my lips together for yelling and apologize with my eyes, and then give a bow to help with the apology. That was uncoordinated. So you're telling me, the one amazing guy with pretty eyes who I've been gushing over for a year or two now is Liam? Who I told Ginny and Hannah about? I had bumped into him on my way home when I quit one of my jobs and I was a bit lost that day. But his big broad body almost knocked me out, luckily he Caught me. But somehow the only thing I noticed was how pretty his eyes were. And I told him they were pretty before we departed. Liam is smiling now. So is half of everyone around our part of the table. "I told you we met again." Liam scoffs. "I had no ide
I soften my gaze on Evans noticing he has also noticed how irritated I sounded calling his name. Literally the entire hallway is empty, and there's another hallway that leads to the hall. How come he's going through the hallway that leads to the women's bathroom? "Sorry," I say, shaking my head. "I didn't see you there." "It's okay?" He shrugs. I nod, ready to walk away. "Are you okay?" He asks, he decides to keep quiet during the entire meal, and now he's talking. "What? Why do you ask?" I gawk at him. "Do I not look okay?" My voice comes out soft. He shrugs. "Just asking" Of course he's not just asking. He would have noticed Liam's and I stupid action at the table. "I am okay." I force a smile, "Thanks for asking." I take my leave and in no time I am seated on the table again, surrounded by people who never stop talking. Evans arrives at the table minutes later, and as usual, doesn't join the conversation and just focuses on his food like me. After the meal, more ins
Stepping outside the hall and into the private room, we were taken to when we first arrived. Liam locks the door behind us and turns to me. Oh, I see we're having the conversation now. "Take a seat" He offers. "I'm fi-"Just take a fuckin seat Scarlett!" He sighs, maybe getting enough of me. I take a seat and clasp my hand right in front of me. Liam standing, takes a deep breath. "Scarlett." He calls. I nod, like I'm not bothered and won't be bothered by anything he says. "I know you saw that article, Scarlett and I know you're mad, and it's right for you to be mad. But I want you to believe that it's not true. Whatever you saw, it's not." He begins. "It's right for me to be mad? I mean why?" I scoff.He arches a brow. "Because we're married and it's only right you get mad when you see me with another woman." He sounds pressured. "But we're only married for public eyes, we don't love each other Liam. You and i know that" I see his shoulders drop."Who said our marriage
It feels like my heart is about to burst into two as Liam's hand rests on the small of my back pulling me into him, my legs wrap around his waist and he immediately leads me to the bed as he gently drops me. I am fully naked now and he's just in his pants now. I see his lips curve into a smile and mine curve into another smile as he undo his pants. That's all I ever wanted. He leans down to grab my breast with his mouth, not letting me wait as he takes his pants off. Finally his pants come off, but I can't see how big he is, because of how his body is literally covering the bottom part of our bodies, mostly mine. I let the pleasure from his tongue caressing my nipple sink in. And with my eyes tightly shut, every move feeling like deja vu, I feel him go down my body with his tongue. My head, my thoughts, my mind, sixth and seventh senses are already buried in clouds, and I am now moaning his name carefully to myself, faintly, not letting him hear a thing. I feel both of his f
I wake up to the sound of thick voices and the smell of raw dead fish and cigarettes. Wait… I had passed out after being kidnapped by those guys back at the hotel. Something they fixed in the bag had made me pass out. And now I'm waking up to sitting in a chair, with my hands tied behind the chair and a blindfold over my eyes. No.. Where the fuck am I? "What do we do with her?" "I don't know… Miss A didn't really give us a specific quest when he got her, she just said to let her be until she's back." "But she's such a pretty girl, we can't just leave her be. Can't we at least have fun with her until Miss A comes back?" What? Are they talking about me? Have fun with me? "I don't know, I'm tempted, but I'm scared Miss A might react widely if she finds out" "She'll never find out. We won't tell her. I mean look at her, she's so fine. Those legs are everything." I gently close my legs, and let my bare feet hit each other. What the hell is this? I can feel my eyes wet, shut
~Liam~ Having a confidential meeting with the st. Bond's brothers. Just Aaron and Criag specifically. Damian went out of the city. It is almost twelve midnight when I receive a call from Vilda. I choose to ignore, shoving my phone in my pants pocket.. Whatever she has to say, can wait. My project with the Bond's brothers is more important. More important… "I think the best strategy to follow at this point is to le-My phone interrupts Craig this time, and he sighs. Is it Vilda again? Why is she calling? I thought I was strict with her, not to call during my meetings. Or is this about Scarlett? Is she having a hard time falling asleep? Or is she throwing up again. "Just answer the damn phone Liam." Aaron says with a sigh. "It's okay, let's keep going, I'll just mute it, let's talk, we only have tonight, we're all busy." I nod. "It's not like we're strangers, stop trying to be the thoughtful one here. You know we'll answer our phones if it was us". Craig says, aggr
~Scarlett~ After making it out of the building where I was kept hostage. I take various turns from what appears to be a dark tunnel rather than the hallway it is.As my body enters the cool night, my skin tightens and my legs tingle.Before celebrating my escape, I run another mile.I take another look back, trying to recover my breath, with the building almost out of sight. But, after focusing on what it appears to be, I turn my attention to what lies ahead of me.As I stare about amid the darkness, my arms travel up my torso, folding.I'm not sure where I am. I'm not sure if I'm still in the city. Even if I am, I am not familiar with the city.I don't have my phone, no shoes, and I'm completely naked.This nightgown barely covers my body. And the wind has absolute control over it. I unexpectedly scream out, and even my tears are frigid as I cry quietly.I start heading into the darkness again, praying that I'm still in the city, because if I'm not, I'll die.It's all over.Is Lia
