"Don't use derogatory slang, Lily," I said, gritting my teeth crossing my arms. Everyone stared at her and there was an uncomfortable tension in the room. "Your partner gets it. Why don't you?""What?" she asked, trying to remain casual but cowering. She adjusted her shirt, and I could see that she was flushing at the neck. I walked over and slid the empty coffee pot in front of her with a clang."Making coffee is beneath my pay grade. For you, it's even lower down the scale."I don't know how she still dared to taunt me after what happened last time in LA. And the ignorance... I guess that shouldn't have surprised me either. My mind went to Mr. Williams and their partnership. Would the collaboration continue?Was she going to be there daily in the office?"What are you doing here, Lily?" I asked, smacking my lips.Lily, though still uncomfortable, dramatically recovered into her fake persona and scoffed at me."I already told you. We're having a meeting." She plucked a pen fro
At home, during dinner, my father was passing the garlic bread to me when I decided to ask him about what happened earlier.Ripping off a section of the bread, I said, "Dad, I saw you at Mr. Williams' earlier today. Why were you in such a hurry?"He had been holding the bread basket, upright over the table with a relaxed grin but once I mentioned that, his face became downcast. He dropped his eyes from mine and slowly reclined into his seat. He appeared to be in another world suddenly and he dropped the basket with a limp toss. My heart broke when I saw him so acutely upset."You okay, Dad?" I asked, concerned, knitting my brow. My chest tightened as I saw the turmoil on my father's twisted features. He rested his elbow on the thick mahogany chair, massaging his forehead in his fingers. Briefly he closed his eyes then looked at me."It's Lily," he said, gruffly. The way he said her name made it seem like it had weight to it. That her nature was to drag people down. My poor dad! Ev
Just her name was becoming a phobia for me to say, especially ever since I saw how jarred Dad was from her interaction. She was infectious like an incurable virus. Yuck.Ada slid beside me and rested on the desk, holding her cheek in her hand. Her hoodie was cornflower blue with speckles of gray. It looked soft and comfortable. I pulled at the pills on her sleeve, finding assurance in this obscure act."So, your mom went through with the invitation, huh?" she asked, wrinkling her nose and bobbing her head."Yes. Can you believe it? Because I can't. Not at all." I waved my hands, my voice becoming shrill. Ava clasped my cold fingers in her warm palms and held them still."Listen, you've got this," she said, completely engaged. Her intensity caught my attention and led my drifting boat from the tempest into the harbor. She was like a beacon for me when I was flipping out. Laser focused she was sometimes."Thank you," I said, sighing, then she let me go."Now, what's the deal?" she
After class was over, everyone filed out and we went into the hallway together. Just as we did, Everett bumped into his former friend, Zac, the leader and tallest of the drones. Several pledges were lined up behind him."Everett. Tagging two at once. I bet they look so tasty together."He spread his index and middle finger and flicked his tongue like he was eating pussy. That got a rise out of the crowd as they laughed and hooted. Some even clapped."Fucking hell, now I can't unsee it," one said, imagining the scene, licking his lips. Everett became inflamed as he squared his shoulders and stepped forward to Zac."You don't scare me, man," Everett said, jutting his jaw. He was about to advance when I grabbed him."Everett, no. Why do you let these idiots rile you up?" I asked furrowing my brow in question. Everett turned to me shrugging but while my attention was taken, Ada made her move.Before I could do anything, she plucked her pepper spray from her hoodie pocket and turned
"BFF!" I turned my head to see Ada traipsing through our house to the backyard."Yo!" I exclaimed and hugged her.She held my ear to her mouth and whispered, "Did Mr. Williams cancel?" I shook my head as she nodded at me."He wouldn't. He's too polite to refuse, even if he doesn't like her," I said, pinching my brow, feeling like I'd been gut punched."We're going to have an all-out war on our hands... But we can do this," she said then headed over to the grill."I make a mean rack of ribs. I can even do it without burning them." Ada declared, drawing my mother's attention from me. She knew how proud mom was of her ribs and this was sure to get her thinking about that.Of course, Mom rose to the bait."Well, you can't make them better than me!" She bounced up and dashed to the grill, spreading her hands out to block anyone else's access. Ada put her arm around my shoulder and led me inside. That was a perfect plan for us to gossip alone and formulate our anti-Lily strategy.In
My mom was hovering over the grill but when I walked outside she spun around and beckoned to me."You offended Lily."I held my chest gasping, feeling my anger zip up the center of my chest."Me? What about her?" I pointed toward the last place we talked."You accidentally stained her clothes at the beach party. How could you have done that and not said sorry?""You're talking about vacation, Mom? What does that have to do with now? Did she just come over and tell you about it?""It doesn't matter when it happened. I think now is a good time to tell her you're sorry.""That's ridiculous. If only you knew how immature and argumentative she is." I rolled my eyes as my ears began to ring. I was so mad."Look honey, I'll tell you the truth, Dad's company has been doing badly lately. He had pride and wanted to shake the need of having to use Mr. Williams' reputation for contacts. And over the last three years he wasn't educated enough, followed some bad advice and his investments plummeted
Mila’s pov:"Well that's not possible because she's interning with me," Mr. Williams said with a charming smile. "But we all know that won't last forever and she's going to be working somewhere new,” he pointed at me, “But not for you Lily."Lily-who was taking a sip of lemonade-set the icy glass on the table with a clunk. She swallowed her gulp and half-smiled."What are you talking about? I can hire her if she’s in the market for a job" Lily said, narrowing one eye on him. "You've just confirmed that for me by letting me know she's going to be done at the end of the month. Might as well strike while the iron is hot."Mr. Williams lifted one brow at her."I don't think so, Lily, because you see I did some digging about you and 'Lily Company',” He air quoted. “You've had quite a change of hands and names, I found out."Glancing at everyone else they were fixated on Mr. Williams, appearing confused with squints and wrinkled noses. I wanted to see if anyone else had a clue what he was s
"Would you like to see the good job Mila has been doing at Mr. Williams' company? It's not the kind of internship you'd expect."“Huh?” Mom asked, not that interested. But that wouldn’t last once Lily forced her to see. My heart sank. This was it. Oh God!It wasn't like I could physically stop her. Because what if I'm wrong? What if all she wants to do is reveal my inner anger with her and make me appear unhinged? It was a gamble with Lily.Turning to the table, I used it to steady myself. Then I grabbed a glass of lemonade, my hands shaking as ice and lemon slices poured out of the large painted carafe. Purposely, I spilled some but as I was wiping it up, I grabbed one of the ponies and unscrewed it, dumping the whole thing in my drink.My dry mouth welcomed the tart lemon with biting vodka. I hoped the alcohol would calm my anxiety too as Lily sidled closer to Mom with her phone. How much did she know? Oh, fuck!Ada skipped over, pretended to be looking at her phone too intently, a
I grab her hips, steady her movements, and pound my cock into her tightness with a wildness that feels like a drug in my bloodstream. She cries out, screaming as I take her mercilessly, each thrust harder than the last, short and fast, long and hard. Deep and deep. She gives one final guttural high-pitched scream and comes undone in my arms. I hold her tight to my chest, slowing the pace of my thrusts so her orgasm can ride her to the max. I love making her come so fucking much. I realized I'm patient when it comes to her unlike the other women just when I feel that her body has stopped shaking wildly around me, her moaning more controlled, my control slips and I pound into her again with primal focus, fast and long, pulling out to the tip and slamming into the hilt of my cock, her pussy walls clench around me tightly, dripping, welcoming, devastatingly warm and stretching to accommodate me. I feel her body shaking again as the next orgasm ripples through her. I come undone wi
"Open. this. damn. thing!.!" I punctuate each word with a kiss down his neck until I reach his nipple. I tease him with my tongue and he emits a low growl, his dark eyes going even darker. He hooks his hands inside the hem of his pants and pulls it down. His hard cock springs free and I gulp at the sight of him, fully naked in front of me. I stroke the vibrating length of his thick cock and he breathes sharply in my ear. I like the shift in power and it pushes me to be bolder as I wrap my hand along his length, stroking him carefully, looking deep into his eyes. "Mila." His eyes flash dangerously, I quicken my pace, relishing the raw masculinity emanating from him as I stroke his hard cock between us, my legs are weak and shaky from that earth-shattering orgasm he gave me with his mouth, else I would have knelt in front of him and taken him in my mouth. "Fuck. You have to stop that. I can't promise to be gentle if you keep that up." Linc groans against my neck, my breath catch
"Williams...Please..." I fist his thick hair, running my hand through his scalp. He kisses a fiery trail of lust down my stomach, wet kisses and the sharp pressure of his teeth pulling across my skin, the sensation is overwhelming. It leaves me breathless; all I can do is writhe my hips, begging for release. The man has a magical mouth, and he knows just how to use it. Years of experience have honed him into the perfect lover. I close my eyes, scratching my fingers across his back as he takes his time to get to my underwear. I inhale sharply when he places soft wet kisses around my bikini line. "Williams." I breathe as strong arms lift my legs high. He kisses the sensitive skin of my inner thigh, and I cry out. "You smell divine." He says, resting his head against my inner thigh and taking a deep breath, his stubble tickling me through the thin material of my underwear. I am close to insanity. I look down and I see his onyx eyes looking up at me in the darkness. I don't
He didn't look surprised and that took me aback, " you knew?" Mr Williams nodded, " Yes, it's Everett. He knew already. He just wanted you to open up forcefully " I exhaled. Mr Williams looked at me, his eyes filled with something I can't even describe, " you asked if I want to fuck you mila? No, I don't want to fuck you. I want to make love to you" I feel my lips tremble. He doesn't want to fuck me like the way we do just for the pleasure of it. He wants to make love to me like a lover would. Like a man who is in love with a woman. It made my heart swell. " I love you" I blurted out, the years blocking my vision from seeing his handsome face. " I love you too Mila" Mr Williams confessed, drawing my face closer to his. The feel of his smooth lips on mine is something I might never get over. My pulse starts racing as his huge palms caress my cheeks. "Mr Williams" I breathe into his gentle kiss. "Shhh, call me Williams or Roman. Let go, Mila. Just feel. Tell me to s
My heart is beating very fast. A lot of things seem to be going wrong. Who would even dare to threaten me with what I and Mr Williams had been doing. God! I feel so distressed about everything. From our secrets to someone whom I have no idea about knowing and has started blackmailing me with it. I hate this feeling. " Did you see the face of the person?" I asked the man who's still shaking in fear. He shook his head, " No, no, I didn't. He put on a cap covering half of his face and then with a nose mask. I didn't see his face. " I exhaled, closed my eyes, and opened it again. " Leave him alone," I told Robert. I knew the time had come for me to open up about what's going on with Mr Williams and I. First, I need to let him know that I'm being blackmailed. I picked up my phone and sent a text to him, wanting to know where he is. I need to meet him face to face and to see his facial expression as I tell him. I want to know what the plan is because I'm tired of hiding. I'm tired
"Oh," I said, "You didn't need to do that. You have nothing to prove to me." But inside I was kinda happy. And glad for him. At least his girlfriend wasn't that rabid bitch. He could do so much better. ☆☆☆☆☆☆ Mila pov:: I received a message which made my generic notification tone go off. Pulling down the message, I narrowed my eyes, having to read it multiple times. Anonymous: I've seen you and Mr. Williams. I know about what you're doing together. I won't go into details, but you know what I mean. Biting my lower lip, I was stunned. My heart began to race, and my neck had a sheen of sweat on it. It automatically gave the same feeling I'd had before like someone was watching me. My stomach felt like a fizzy storm had bubbled up from this threat. Could it be Lily again? Maybe I'd gone too far with using her son as leverage. At the time I thought I was being clever, but if this was her, maybe I shouldn't have taken it that far. Me: Who is this? Anonymous: Tell no one else.
"So what series is it you're going to binge?" I asked him, sipping from the iced tea, then shoving the pie plate away."It's an older one. Three seasons. Set in northern Britain. Very dark, but also hilarious.""Sounds... Good, I think?" I said, my elbows on the table throwing my palms up. He chuckled."I can see why you have apprehension. I've been secretive about my questionable shows with everyone else but for some reason, just now, all you had to do was ask and I confessed."I snorted, chuckling under my breath. Was he serious? He seemed like it. Just as I was about to ask him more a figure approached us. That scent of alcohol mixed with a little bit of BO and deodorant that I kinda liked. It was Everett."So, Robert, why are you here with Ada?" Everett asked outright, snapping his eyes to his supposed rival. I was so stunned I couldn't speak and that was a rarity. My stomach felt queasy. But then I felt excited.He was fidgeting and Charline wasn't hanging off him quite as
He was just going through the motions.My heart sank. I wished he could find something real. Those couple of nights in LA made me think he really wanted to change. Maybe someday."Give him some time, Ada. Maybe he'll surprise you."She shrugged, rolled her eyes and began to chug off her fountain raspberry ice tea, averting her eyes. Robert glanced back then went back to take the last bite of his sandwich. Leaning back he patted his belly."Wow, I am so stuffed right now. I need a wind down drink at home, maybe an episode of my favorite series then to pass out.""It's only the beginning of the week, Robert," I said whimpering, trying to commiserate. "We have to pretend we're not tired yet. It's office culture law."He frowned and said, "Sorry. You're right. I do know better." He pointed at me and we smiled. Then, I saw our waiter heading over to our table, with a dessert in one hand and a check in the other."We can split this," I said, "Or I can pay." I rifled through my purse.
His nose was slightly red from his exertion and the temperature as he waved the folder at me. Damn! It was one of the files from work.I must have dropped it when Ada texted me. Good thing he was behind to grab that up. I was so excited I didn't notice it slipped out from under my arm. How careless of me!Mr. Williams would be pissed if other people saw last quarters inside market reports."Thanks, Robert," I said, "My mind has been all over the place. You're a lifesaver.""Oh, it was pure chance I found it. You don't normally leave this way.""You're right, I don't," I paused, brushing my lips with my index finger then, "Were you behind me the whole time?”“Mm-hmm, I think so.”“Did you happen to notice if anyone else was following me?""I did see people, but I don’t know if they were following you. Why do you think it was you they wanted?”"I had the heeby jeebies, you know? Just a feeling. But every time I turned around, there was nobody there. But once I kept walking, it
