DIEGOFew hours after Andrea left my penthouse,my door bell rang. Did she perhaps come back? Is she going to accept the fact that I hate people trying to become detectives in my life. Whatever. I'm trying not to seem bothered about the look on Andrea's face when she left but I can't shove it off. I keep thinking about it. I opened the door as Monica stepped in. My gaze darkened, knowing that she isn't the one I was expecting to see. Ever since Monica and I divorced two years back, occasionally when I come to New York,she still comes to pledge as my submissive. But I found myself pushing her away ever since the entanglement with Andrea which shouldn't be. Was I involuntarily pledging loyalty to Andrea?!“Diego” She called my name as soon she stepped in. “What do you want?” I asked in a dismissive and cold tone. “Andrea” She said in a low voice. “ Is she your new pry to feed on? Is she your new target now?” Monica asked,her eyes narrowing in disdain. How did she find out I have an
ANDREAI had been so down after Kate left my house. She was indeed right. What was I even thinking? I definitely had no chance with Diego. I was way out of his league and it was more scandalous that he was Fred's father. I would definitely be ridiculed by society. I had no appetite to eat or check my job applications. I was fucking tired, worried and honestly, going crazy wouldn't even qualify my state right now. I was still checking out the phone Diego gave me. I was torn in-between returning it and using it. I didn't need it,I wanted nothing from him if he didn't need any from me. It would only remind me about him and I didn't want that. My doorbell rang,jiggling me out of what I was doing and I couldn't help but wonder who it might be. Kate left here hours ago and it was already evening, perhaps she wanted to come back and check up on me. I walked straight to the door and opened it and I caught hold of Fred as he threw himself into my arms. I arched my brows in confusion, trying
ANDREADiego kissed me unexpectedly, catching me off guard. His soft firm lips placed on mine,savouring them hungrily. I was supposed to push Diego away but I couldn't,my body betrayed me. I really can't fathom what the hell was wrong with me. I found myself melting into his embrace instead, lost in the intensity of his kiss. His hands cradled my face, his fingers tangling in my hair as he poured all his longing into the moment and I found myself stepping into the penthouse unwittingly with Diego's lips on mine. There was something different about this kiss with Diego. It was unlike any other, filled with a deep yearning, sweetness, and passion that left me breathless. I couldn't help but wonder if I was just caught up in the heat of the moment or if something real was sparking between us. Perhaps I was being delusional as always. Diego pulled away instantly as if he was refraining himself. He wiped the corners of his lips and lifted his cold gaze to me. “What do you want?” He aske
ANDREADiego let go of my hands instantly and burst into a perilous laughter. I stood frozen, my facial expressions unreadable. Why did I even ask that in the first place? Can't believe how stupid, naive and desperate I sounded. “Love, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. What's that? Stop getting ahead of yourself, Andrea. That's bullshit” He said in a stern voice after laughing at what I asked. I swallowed hard, trying to get a hold of myself from the harsh words he just said. I knew he didn't and would never. “I know right?” I responded in a shaky flat voice, trying to seem strong like it wasn't eating me up inside. But no, I can't continue showing Diego how weak I can be for him. “That's why you should stop asking me to take the phone. Not like taking it actually means anything to you” I muttered in a flat tone, hurt evident in my voice. I'm holding myself from not breaking down. This shouldn't hurt me but it keeps piercing my heart. I knew right from the st
ANDREA. Fred was done with the operation and we were all waiting for him to wake up. It was 3am in the morning and we were all there. Monica threatened me so many times to leave Fred but I just couldn't go, I had to make sure he was okay. I'm partially the cause of this whole disaster. Luckily, Fred's eyelids slowly fluttered open, he was struggling to keep them open, causing the three of us to stir our movements, our eyes widening in anticipation. He moved his fingers slightly and Monica quickly grasped his hands. “Son, you are awake?” She asked in a pale voice, clutching his hands tightly. The machine was beeping nonstop and his hands wrapped into a bandage.I heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that he kept his eyes open, so did Kate. “Son ….. how do you feel?” Monica questioned in a shaky voice, she had been crying for the longest. “Mom……” Fred responded in a weak voice.“Yes son” Monica answered instantly, fixing her gaze on him intently, waiting for the next words he wa
FREDEvening came and I went and picked up Andrea. I was taking her for a cinema date and thereafter, we get to go to the rooftop and enjoy a little picnic with snacks and perhaps Andrea would give in to my advances.“Ready?” I said after watching Andrea step down,she looked gorgeous as usual and I wished she would just let me have my way with her tonight. I had been craving her for the longest. She flipped her hair backwards and beamed a smile. She was in short sundress which fits the theme of the picnic date we would have at the rooftop..“Yes, I'm done” She said, linking arms with me. “Let's go” She smiled cheerfully. Perhaps she was finally letting herself be free with me. “As you wish…..” I responded with a smile and we casually walked to my car and I opened the car door for her. I engaged Andrea in conversation while I drove and she was responding frequently unlike the previous times my foster father, Diego was around. Has she finally gotten to know her place that she didn't
KATEI rang Andrea's doorbell and sometime later, she opened it. “Hi….” I forced an awkward smile as soon as she opened it. “Kate….” She muttered, adjusting her glasses. Andrea started walking back to her laptop and I followed her in. “Applying for more jobs, huh?” I asked as if I cared. “It's tons of rejections. I'm literally tired” She grunted, taking a seat in front of her laptop. Silly girl. What I'm about to do might seem suspicious but I don't care so far she suspects while she is away, far away from our lives. I sneakily checked if the drug substance was inside my purse while she focused on her laptop.I'm sorry Andrea, a girl has to do what she has to do. I heaved a deep sigh. I didn't think my obsession with Fred would get me to this extent but I'm in for it. “I thought I left some of my knitting materials here” I murmured, causing her to lift her gaze to mine. “Did you?” “Yeah. In your room, perhaps? I'm going to check” I began darting over to her room area. I need
DIEGO. “Sir, Andrea had just been arrested” Jack reported over the phone..“What?!” I stood up from my office chair instantly. “Yes, for distribution of drug substance” He answered. “What?! Andrea would never do something like that. Find out what happened and use my influence to get her released immediately” I ordered, impatience covering my tone. What the heck! I was consumed by rage, my body seething in anger. How could Fred allow Andrea go to prison? I thought he claimed to have loved her while he was busy cheating with her best friend! I'm not going to let Andrea continue dating that bastard. It's true I wanted to keep my distance from Andrea but for the past few weeks I hadn't been able to. I keep thinking about her, she keeps invading my mind. I know I was extremely harsh to her that day she questioned me. I wanted to get rid of her but I couldn't. I hadn't made anyone my submissive ever since. I couldn't fuck any woman without Andrea invading my mind. It became a torture
