Sapphire's POVWith Eric's belt gone, I unzipped and unbuttoned his jeans to bring out his glorious, exquisite pleasure pole, warm and veiny as always. I gripped his pants and pushed it down his waist a little, letting his cock fully emerge. I lick my lips and send him a sly smile before kissing him softly and straddling him. He held my waist and I grabbed the scruff of his neck.I pushed Eric to lean backwards against the seat and watched with my flickering eyes how his eyes turned darker and greedier as I mounted him. Slowly, I slid my wet hole around his cock, sheathing him with my tight walls like they were made to swallow him whole. The way his girth fit was just beyond amazing, slightly hurting at first but I was so ready to go wild with him and I wasn't going to hold back.I raised my hips that only his bulbous head was lodged in my hole and I moaned when I slammed back down, crashing on his groin. God! What a sensation! He felt so good inside of me. Every time with him felt li
Sapphire's POV"I just got off the phone with the doctor. He told me my sister's outstanding bills have been settled and that a huge amount of money was also deposited for her continued care," I informed Eric who was busy working on a presentation for Donovan Group.Apparently, he was running D'Writers and had also begun working in his family's company in order to get acquainted with it or whatever it was that he said. He had a massive presentation coming up in a week's time and he'd been working nonstop. He'd been glued to his laptop for what felt like forever, barely taking breaks, just munching on whatever snacks I brought him and gulping down endless cups of coffee.I continued in a high–pitched tone, "And by huge amount of money, I mean five million dollars, Eric! Someone anonymously donated five million dollars to her treatment fund—her continuous life support, surgeries, periodic diagnostic tests, the latest neurostimulation treatments, everything!" Eric's fingers froze mid–ta
Sapphire's POV"The last time you saw her alive?" Eric arched one of his brows, staring at me intently. "Isn't she alive, though?""No, I meant truly alive. Like, before the accident that put her in a coma. She was vibrant, full of life, always laughing and making everyone around her smile. That's the image of her I hold onto, not her lying in a hospital bed. Since the accident, it's like she's here but not really here, you know?" I explained, trying to find the right words to describe the emptiness of the situation.Eric nodded slowly and I could see sadness lurking in his eyes. "Yeah, I get what you mean. It's like a part of her is missing and you're waiting, hoping that part comes back to complete her again.""Exactly," I agreed, feeling a lump form in my throat. "And it's not just about waiting for her to wake up. It's about dealing with the reality that even if she does, she might not be the same. The doctors said there could be significant memory loss or she might not be able to
Sapphire's POV{FLASHBACK}FIVE YEARS AGO..."Heyyy, Sapphy," Jade boomed from behind me and hugged me while planting a kiss on my cheek. "Muah!"I giggled and when she broke the hug, I stared at her in amusement, closing the book I was reading. And then my lips quickly curved into the biggest smile ever. I found it hard not to smile whenever Jade was around. It was almost impossible."What's got you all cheery this evening?" I squinted up at her, my eyes full of curiosity.Jade just chuckled softly and chirped, flashing her trademark grin at me, "Ah, Sapphy, you know me! I'm always cheerful! Can't help it, it's just in my DNA, I guess." She shrugged, biting on an apple and taking a large chunk of it.And it was true; she had this ability to brighten up any room she walked into, effortlessly spreading joy wherever she went. It didn't matter if it was raining outside or if the world seemed gloomy; Jade was the sun herself, on even the cloudiest and darkest days.She could find joy in t
Sapphire's POVI walked down the hallway and stopped dead on my tracks when I heard Ethan's grunts coming from the fitness room. I pushed open the door and slowly walked inside, my feet padding softly against the hardwood floor, trying not to disturb Ethan, who was in the zone practicing his top notch karate moves. He did this more often these days like he was preparing for a tournament.I leaned against the doorway, watching him intently. His muscles glistened and rippled with sweat under the overhead lights, his brow furrowed in concentration while he did a series of awesome kicks and punches that made me want to step back and give him some space. I crossed my arms, enjoying the show as he did some more flurry of kicks and punches that seemed to blur in the air around him.A few rays of sunlight peeked through the curtains and the faint scent of sweat was all that lingered in the air. It made me wonder how long Ethan had been at this today. His breaths came out in controlled bursts,
Sapphire's POVDamn!Theo sure knew how to throw a party. I brought Jamila and Gwen along with me. It'd been ages since I got to hang out with them. I felt like this party was the perfect opportunity to let loose and have some fun together. Ethan drove to the place alone while Eric took me, Jamila and Gwen there.The party was wild and there were so many people here, my head was spinning just trying to keep track of everyone. The moment we stepped into Theo's mansion, the music was bumping so loud I could feel the bass vibrating beneath my feet and through my whole body. Lights were flashing in all different colours, giving the place a dream–like vibe. But there was no sign of Sophia.This place was more packed than a club. How could one person know so many people?—I wondered, my eyes dancing across the room. And I wasn't talking about old people or relatives either. These were all young, vibrant faces—beautiful girls with bikini bodies and hot dudes, each with a drink in hand, laughi
Eric's POV"What was it you wanted to show me, Theo?" I asked him irritatedly. No doubt anyone could hear how impatient I sounded. We'd been walking around for more than thirty minutes, with Theo greeting everybody and dragging me along with him.As expected, Theo chuckled and shook his head. "Can't wait to get back to your woman, can you?"I didn't give him an answer.So he continued, "Aw man, look at you. You've got it bad like damn!" He laughed and took one large gulp of his cocktail that I was damn sure was probably too strong for its own good.Theo had a knack for drinking like a damn fish, like there was no tomorrow and it was his birthday, so naturally, he was on a mission to get shitfaced beyond recognition. But hell, that wasn't my problem. Not at all. It was his liver on the line, not mine. And if he really thought it was cool to drink his weight in alcohol and down shots like it was nobody's business, then good for him.His tolerance was through the roof though. It always a
Eric's POVI decided to play along, feeling Sophia's smooth soft lips against mine and she deepened the kiss, holding me tighter. Her lips were fuller and softer than I remembered them being; they were kind of sweeter too. She tasted like strawberries, tequila, whiskey and all I could think about was how wrong this was, as flashes of the last time we kissed in Malibu flooded my mind. Her moans, the way she clung to me like a drowning woman...Everything about this felt so damn wrong yet I couldn't summon the strength I needed to push her away at that instant. Sophia's tongue pulled back and then traced my bottom lip before slipping inside my mouth again. A shiver ran through me and her warm breath mingled with mine, her fingers digging into my shoulders as she desperately pulled me even closer.It was intoxicating in its own way, taking me back to those simpler times when love was just a game we played together before adulthood set in with all its complications and responsibilities. T
Sapphire’s POV“I’ll never be yours,” I spoke defiantly, hiding every hint of fear in my voice. “Never.”“Oh but you already are,” Ethan responded, sniffling on my hair and twisting the gun against my head like it was about to bore a hole inside. “Whether you like it or not, you belong to me now. Eric can’t do anything about it. Isn’t that right, Eric?”Eric snarled, moving forward, “Ethan—”“Careful, bro. I thought I made it clear that if you try anything stupid, your tigress will pay for it. You wouldn’t want me to paint the walls with her blood now, would you?”Eric stood still but the fury in his eyes was unmatched by anything I’d ever seen before. He knew he was trapped, forced to play by Ethan's rules to keep me safe. Ethan was relishing in his power, revelling in the control he had over both of us. The son of a bitch held all the cards right now to his sick game.“Hang in there, tigress,” Eric told me in a softer voice, “I promise we’ll both walk out of here together. I’m takin
Sapphire’s POV “Going somewhere?” I looked up at Eric who was getting ready to head out. “Yeah,” he answered, peering into the mirror and fixing his shirt. He was wearing a black T-shirt and a pair of black pants. His hair was wet from the shower he had not quite long ago. He grabbed his leather jacket from the back of the chair and shrugged into it, zipping it halfway. The material creaked softly as he moved and his rich cologne filled the room. “Where are you off to?” I asked, sitting up on the bed and watching him. “Just going to meet with some contacts,” Eric replied, flashing me a quick smile. “I’ve got some important stuff to take care of.” “By this time? It’s almost 10.” “I won’t be long, I promise.” “Be careful,” I mumbled. Eric turned to me and shot me a warm smile. “Always am, tigress,” he cooed, crossing the room to plant a kiss on my forehead. I watched him as he grabbed his keys and wallet from the dresser, tucking them into his pocket before heading towards the
Sapphire’s POVI struggled so hard underneath the monster, trying to get him off me but all my efforts were futile. He was a whole lot stronger than me, pressing his body harder on mine, his lips grazing neck. I screamed and squirmed, flashes of that night he violated me whelming my brain.Ethan didn’t relent. He groaned in my ear, kissing my neck hungrily and rubbing his erection against my core. His breath washed my body whole with filth and disgust and I wanted to throw up at that point. The bitter, foggy memories of that night were replaying in my head as Ethan tried to have his way with me again.“Let me go!” I cried, struggling still, hoping and praying that someone out there would hear and come to my rescue.Where are those stupid bodyguards when you need them? Where’s Eric when you need him?I had to do something to get myself out of this. I had to break free and run away. I couldn’t let him do it all over again. I would never look at myself the same way ever again if I didn’t
Sapphire’s POVEthan took a step forward, the usual calm and friendly look on his face completely gone. His eyes went dark and he pressed his lips into a grim thin line, his brows furrowing slightly.“It was you!” I screamed, angry tears spilling in a split second as I clutched my panties tighter and stepped backwards, heading for the door. “You…you..raped me!”He was quiet, deadly quiet and something like anger flashed in his eyes. He looked different, like a completely different person. The stare he gave me was frosty and sharp; the kind a psychotic criminal gave after being exposed.I didn’t wait for him to say another word and didn’t demand any explanation from him even though the whole thing was puzzling and mind-boggling. In a flash, I turned towards the door and raced for it. But Ethan beat me to it. He blocked my path and locked the door before shoving the keys in the back pocket of his sweatpants.“Leaving so soon?” He asked, a devilish smirk now imprinted on his face.“Open
Sapphire’s POVEric had still not come home yet. I was still up, waiting for him and it was already very late. My eyes darted at the huge clock in the living room, my hands gripping my phone tightly. It was a little over 9pm and I’d been calling him for that past one hour but couldn’t get through to him. Perhaps his phone was down. I wished he’d come home soon.He’d given me specific instructions to stay put and not go to the hospital to look for him. I was intent on listening to him this time. I didn’t want him getting all worked up again about how stubborn I was so I waited patiently, glancing at my phone occasionally and listening for the sound of his car driving in.I had been waiting all evening to hear the latest update regarding Patricia. I hadn’t got any information about her condition and what state she was in but from the looks of things, she might not make it. She’d lost a lot of blood when I’d gotten there the previous night and she had more than two stab wounds.I didn’t
Eric’s POVThese past few months had been fucked! I had never seen anything like it. It had been from one fucking problem to the other, day in, day out, with no breathers, no breaks and no end in sight. What the hell was going on? The universe must love playing horrible games with us.First, Sapphire and I split up for months after she found out about the accident which I believed all my life I was responsible for when in reality, my sick mother was behind it all. And up until now, we still had no idea who’d called Sapphire to feed her with all of that bullshit of me conniving with my mother to kill her siblings.Secondly, my wife got raped after we were back together and like that wasn’t terrible enough, she got knocked up in the process. The bastard who did it was still on the run. She made up her mind to keep the baby, another blow to my face. It almost broke us apart and then she lost the baby, thanks to Patricia. I felt like shit at first when we thought Sapphire had a miscarriag
Sapphire’s POVI glanced down at my body. I was covered in Patricia’s blood and the footsteps were getting closer. I swallowed, cold sweat dripping out of my pores. If anyone saw me here like this, they’d think I stabbed her. I had to get out of here and fast. I got up and headed quickly for the door but I stopped dead on my tracks when someone walked in.Oh no! I was too late.“Sapphire? What the…?”“Eric?” I was relieved for a moment. It was just Eric. Surely, he wouldn’t think that I had anything to do with this. Or would he?I went over to him, my hands trembling, my voice shaking and my breathing heavy. “Eric…I…I… P…P…Patricia.”Eric gave me a hard once-over, his eyes trailing over the blood on my clothes and then darting towards Patricia’s seemingly lifeless body lying on the cold marble floor. He had an unreadable expression but his gaze was fierce and hard that I feared the worst.I didn’t know what I was expecting exactly. Perhaps I thought he’d begin with the interrogation,
Sapphire’s POV“Mrs Donovan,I’m terribly sorry that you had to find out this way. I should at least have the guts to face you and say this but I don’t. And I’m even sorrier for what I did to you and for the pain I caused you. I never intended to do it. I was forced into it. As you know, the love a mother has for her child can be overwhelming and compelling; hence I did what I had to do.I’m not saying any of this to excuse my actions, for you to take pity on me or even consider forgiving me. I don’t deserve your forgiveness and I’ll carry the burden of what I did to you for the rest of my life. A week ago, I had told you and the others that my little boy was very ill and so I took a leave. But that was a lie.My son was kidnapped and they told me the only way to get him back was if I did the unthinkable-kill your baby. I didn’t want to do it but I had no choice. They threatened to kill my son. The day before I left, I laced your tea with an undetectable poison the kidnappers gave me
Sapphire’s POV“I’m sorry but she lost the baby.”The doctor’s words replayed in my ear every single minute since the day I lost my child. The day he had broken the news to us, I was distraught and words couldn’t even express how shattered and hopeless I felt. I felt like dying along with my baby. All of a sudden, my life stopped making sense.How did I get here? How did I get to this point? When did my life become such a never-ending pain-filled nightmare? It was always one problem or the other. Why couldn’t I just be happy and have peace for once? Why was I always a mess? Why was my life a mess?I thought back to how terrified and unsure I was to become a mother at first, given the traumatic circumstances. And then, how I grew to love the idea of having a child, of creating a life and nurturing it as the days passed. I had so many dreams for my baby. I was already coming up with names.But now, all those hopes and dreams lay shattered at my feet, broken beyond repair. They were brut
