~My pretty little girl~
ALORA POV:Not even in my wildest dream I thought he will find out about my identity so soon. I gulped nervously as I stared into his deep and black eyes. They were sparkling under the dim lights."You..." He said and took a step closer to me, that made me move away instinctively and within a second, I was trapped between his arms like a prey.I had to get out of this situation. So, before he could say something, I spoke first, "What the hell are you talking about?" I narrowed my eyes and tried my best to sound little husky. After all the sneaking and cross dressing, I thought I was good at playing with others but in front of this man.... all of my composure was slipping away.His lips curled up into a devilish smirk while his eyes roamed freely on my body. I unconsciously fidgeted in my place under the scrutiny of his eyes."Even with my eyes covered, I can tell that you are a girl. The lavender scent, your soft and fragile wrists.... they are giving it away." He leaned closer to my face as he spoke.While my legs were on the verge of giving away. Now, I was regretting running here with him. I have always liked him. I never missed any of his matches. So, when I saw him tonight, I just could not believe that. I knew I had to talk to him and I was sure he will treat me as an obsessive fan boy. But damn it!! The first thing that he said to me is, 'You are a girl, aren't you?'"You are talking nonsense." I pulled myself together and gave him a little push to move him away but he did not budge an inch from his place. His features were prominent and firm. Those chiseled jaws and little stubble over them, proud and high nose bridge, plump lips.... Rhys Larsen is indeed a sight to behold."Still so damn persistent..." He muttered under his breath, "Why don't you just admit? Otherwise, we have way to confirm your sexuality." He gave me a once over again.Meanwhile, I was so shocked to hear that. I instantly covered my breasts with my arms. "Confirm what?"His melodious laughter filled the space. It was dark, husky, intimidating with a hint of tease, "You need to act better." He moved away, giving me my space back so I could breath. I licked my lower lip as it has dried up after being with him for couple of minutes."Although I have to give you points for your efforts." He leaned on the broken chair that was in the room.I sighed and plopped on the floor. Running away from Linda, then coming across Rhys Larsen, tonight is one hell of a night."My cross dressing isn't hurting anyone here. I want to race and in order to do that, I have to change my identity." I tried to explain. Although there was no reasons to do so, still I did not want to leave a bad impression on him.His eyes bore into me, "There is no prejudice regarding gender in f1. I saw you drive and you are really good at it. You can try going for it professionally." He said to me with utter seriousness.Rhys must have thought that I am doing this because there aren't many girls in racing. However, the real reason is something else and I cannot tell him. Not yet."I know." I got up and peeked outside through the little window. There were no signs of Linda and other guards. I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief."Wait a second." He hastily grabbed my wrist. While I had to stretch my neck to look into his beautiful eyes, "You... someone's chasing after you, right? What is going on? Who are those people? Loan sharks?" His eyes stretched to their limits, "Now it all make sense. You are racing illegally to pay your debts."I wanted to laugh. I really did. His theory was perfect and at such illegal places, all sort of things happen for the sake of money."Listen, if you need some cash... I can help you."My heart swooned over his words. We met for the first time but he was willing to help me. Who does this these days?I pulled my wrist out of his grip softly and looked at him, "I appreciate that but neither I am short on money nor those people are loan sharks. They are more like..."I do not want to tell him who I am. This is going to scare the hell out of him. But at this stage in my life, I am used to freaking people out because of my identity."They are my bodyguards."'I sighed and waited for him to be shocked, to laugh at me, to call me nuts but instead I was the one who was surprised. He did nothing. He just stared at me."Okay." Rhys stated. His voice devoid of any expression, "If they are your guards, then they aren't bad people." He looked more like.... relieved."You should go to them. They are looking for you all over the place." He added."I know." I sighed and chewed my lower lip, "But I sneaked out of the home and I am cross dressing. Plus, if they will find out I was here to race, I will be grounded for good.""Oh." His mouth turned into 'O' at the realization."I made sure to turn off my phone and all the devices and left them home. I can't believe they managed to track me."I whispered to myself."How about I go out and check on them?" He suggested. Moreover, the glint in his eyes was telling me that he is enjoying this situation. It was more like an adventure for him.I had no choice but to take on his offer, "Please.""Got it." He winked and something inside me melted at the sight before pooling in between my legs.'Not now.' I groaned internally."But-" He paused when his hand was on the broken knob, "You owe me one.""Of course." I agreed without hesitation. However, deep down I had a feeling that I made a mistake.Rhys Larsen is dangerous for my heart, for my body and even for my soul. He is like a black panther who is hiding in the darkness ready to engulf me as a whole and deep down, I wanted to be engulfed by him."It's clear. They aren't here anymore." I have no idea when he returned since I was engulfed by my thoughts. I was suddenly pulled back to reality."Oh, thank you." I answered him, dazed and peeked my head out of the door to see for myself once more. After I was relieved to see that Linda and her team wasn't there anymore, I walked out of the cramped storage room."Wait." Rhys rushed to stand in front of me."How will you go home? Do you have a ride?" He inquired. For a split second, all I wanted to do was to ditch everything and rush into his arms. This man is intoxicating and I was getting toxicated by his demeanor."No, I don't but I will get a cab." At first I wanted to bring a car but it is easier to track it. So, I ditched the idea and came here on a taxi. Of course, that's how I will be going back."If you don't mind-" He suddenly appeared to be extremely nervous, "Can I accompany you?"My hands trembled at his tone. He sounded so gentle, polite, caring... in a way that no one has ever me like this. Not even my Dad.A part of me wanted to instantly say yes. However, the little sanity left in me stopped me from doing that."My parents always advised me to not follow the strangers." I teased him. Although we met for the first time but it didn't feel like it. In fact, I was feeling more comfortable around him than Asher.His deep throaty chuckle caused my core to vibrate, "It's you who grabbed the hand of the stranger and dragged him with yourself. Oh my God, don't tell me you had any other ideas..." This time it was him who covered his chest with his arms and looked at me with concern.I smiled, "Such a drama queen you are." I taunted."So, can I come?" He wriggled his brow.However, it wasn't that I did not want him to come with me. I do want to spend time with him. I have always thought about seeing him, meeting him, talking to him and doing a lot more. But the little part of me was scared. Scared of the fact that he is going to find out who I am and leave me like everybody else."Trust me, I am not a bad person and because you are a f1 fan, you must know me better." Perhaps he read my concerns."I know." I exhaled loudly, "It's just that I am scared my Dad will find out." I told him.He took a step closer to me and grabbed my hand before giving it a little reassurative squeeze, "It's gonna be alright. I have seen worse."I opened my mouth to answer, when from the corner of the eye I saw a stiletto of Linda. "Damnit!" I cursed under my breath.Rhys looked in my line of sight. Linda was unbelievably close. Her hawk like eyes were searching for me everywhere."Do you trust me?" He suddenly inquired. While I, who was racking my brain to find a way out of this mess, looked at him with confusion."I am sorry. Please don't kill me for this-" Rhys said and he swiftly took off the wig that I was wearing."What the hell are you-" I remember I was saying something to him but the next second, all I could feel was the touch of his soft and smooth lips against mine.~You look so beautiful.... having your shaking legs wrapped around my waist.~ ALORA POV: He kissed me. Rhys Larsen kissed me. The touch of his lips was extremely soft and feather like but it was causing my toes to curl. It was making me crave for more and leaving me with anticipation. He did nothing. He did not deepen the kiss but I could feel that kissing Rhys would be a heavenly experience. When he pulled away, which only felt like eternity, I breathed heavily like I just finished a marathon. I warily glanced at him. However, he had his eyes on someone else. I tried to get rid of the tingling sensation on my lips by diverting my attention only to find that Linda was leaving. Now I get why he did that. In order to blend well with the crowd he kissed me so we would look like a couple and my guards wouldn't bother me. I let out a sigh of relief. However, that kiss, that lingering feel, the anticipation, it was only building. "Let's go. I will take you home." He grabbed my w
~I want you wet and ready for me~RHYS POV:It's been 2 days since I last saw her and damn... that girl is stuck in my head like she belongs there. I admit that she is intriguing, beautiful and passionate about racing. She got me hooked. Although I am curious about her identity and who she is, I couldn't bring myself to ask her. It looked like she did not want me to know. I even considered searching for her online. However, I dropped the idea because I thought I would want to hear it from her. I sighed as I put on my black jacket and left my room. "Mom, I will be late tonight." I informed her. "Where are you going? Don't tell me you will be drinking again." She glared at me with a stern look on her face. I couldn't help but chuckle. My relationship with my family is great. We are not like other families who talk once or twice a year. I love spending time with them, I love having a good meal with them and of course, I love talking with them. "Maybe you should really get a girlfrien
~I want to do bad thing to you.~ALORA POV: My head was a mess. I did not expect to run into Rhys at the restaurant. However, it wasn't the fact that I saw him at the restaurant that was making me anxious but it was the look on his face when he looked at me before I left. It was more like he was challenging me. Challenging me to do something crazy. "Gosh." I kicked my legs in the air and let out a frustrated groan. I couldn't sleep a wink last night and it is all because of Rhys Larsen. "Damn him." I ran my fingers in my hair before pulling off the roots of them. I tried to push all those ridiculous thoughts aside and went to take a shower. On every sunday, I have breakfast with my Dad and that's the only time in a week when I get to talk to him comfortably. So, I took a shower, brushed my hair and went downstairs. Dad was already sitting on the head seat of the table. "Good morning, Dad". I said to him before pulling the chair on his right hand side. "Good m
~You sprawled on my bed, naked and wet for me.~ALORA POV: 3 days later: I slipped into a formal pink colour suit while Mr. Smith and Linda took me to the office of the Riders. All the way my heart was beating so fast that I could feel it in my throat and it wouldn't be a surprise if it would jump out from my chest. The deafening sound was making me nauseous. "I have met up with the guys of the team and trust me they are really great. Mr. Anderson is also going to be there for you and Linda, you have to be by her side. I do not want her to leave her with a bunch of guys alone. Stay away from all kinds of trouble, stay away from any rumours. I do not want this plan to backfire." The hint of caution and thread behind Mr. Smith's words was more than enough to deliver the hidden message behind this he does not want me to involve with those guys privately. That's the jist of his warning. "I know I am not a kid and this isn't my first rodeo." I said to him, Mr. Smith has been working
~You look divine.~RHYS POV: I was not expecting to see Alora at the company. When I saw her, for a second I thought I was dreaming because these days all I can think about is her. However, the news that she is going to be the ambassador for the Riders was like a bolt out of blue for me. It wasn't that I was mad at her for doing this job but I was mad at her acting like I do not faze her. Alora is a liar, she is one filthy liar and what proves my point is the fact that I can clearly see that she is not happy to be with her boyfriend but the act that she is putting on in front of everyone is what is making me furious. "Are you going to watch our matches?" Oliver asked her. "Yes, of course. I am going to attend your matches. I am the ambassador after all." She sweetly told him. Please tell me she doesn't talk like this with all the guys.... The ping in my heart got intense. "Let's go. I have to show you around." I couldn't help but take her away from the guys otherwise these bunch
~My body wants you badly.~ALORA POV: When I decided to work for the Riders, I did not expect to stay here as well. However, it makes sense since I will have to make myself familiar with the way things work here. I took a quick shower to freshen up and changed my clothes. The dress seemed too formal. So, I changed into a comfortable pair of pants and a shirt. I wanted to go out and have fun, but the unnecessary security that I have, made it impossible for me to enjoy my stay here. Therefore, I was even forced to have lunch in the room, alone. "Linda, you don't need to go to such lengths to protect me. It's not like there is anything life threatening here." I tried to make her understand that she can take it easy. "Protecting you doesn't mean that I need to protect you only from the life threatening danger. Anything that can cause harm to your reputation, I need to stop it as well. This is a part of my job." She told me with respect. However, I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "I ha
~Let me be the fragrant taste that you desire.~ALORA POV: "Shoot your question first. I am driving anyway." Rhys glanced at me before diverting his attention back on the road. "Let me think....." I thought hard about the first question before asking, "Okay, let's start lightly. What is the biggest lie that you have ever told?" Rhys kept a poker face but suddenly that poker face turned into something naughty and I can't really seem to wrap my fingers around it. "I lied that I lost my virginity at the age of 17 when I lost it at 14." He said flatly like it doesn't matter at all. Meanwhile, I choked on my own saliva. I am sure my face had turned red. It's just that I imagined lil Larsen doing naughty things when he was in his early teenage years. "What did you imagine for your face to turn beet red?" He stared at me intensely. Meanwhile, I fanned my face with my hands to calm myself down, "What do you mean by what I imagine? Nothing." I just did not think that he w
~My hands can't touch you but my mind won't leave you alone.~RHYS POV: I did not expect such a reaction from her but I know deep down she knew that I was right. That's why she blew up. Trust me, that guy does not deserve her at all. She is not happy with him. Even a stranger can see it, but why can't he? It is extremely clear on her face and I am sure she is not even satisfied in bed. The way she clenches her thighs, the way her eyes glow up upon hearing something dirty and the blush that spreads on her cheeks.... it is evident that she wants me. But how did that bastard get so lucky to have her in his life? By the way, I am going to let her be just like she wishes and there will come a time when she will accept this herself and will come to me. Now all I have to do is to wait for that moment to arrive as soon as possible'When that time comes, I will show you what my real boundaries are, Alora Scarlett.' I said to myself like I made a promise and parked the car. Whatever plans I had
~Taking her ex out of the picture for good.~ALORA POV: Today is Mei's wedding and for her wedding I am more nervous than my own. I carefully picked out a cream colored silk dress because that was the dress code and I half heartedly dabbed little makeup on my face. I don't know whether it is a good choice to attend this or not but it is too late to reconsider my decision at this point. "Alora, are you ready?" Henry knocked on the door and asked me.I hurriedly applied lipstick and answered, "Yes, I am." I rushed to open the door and found him standing there. He was wearing black tux and damn, he looked hot. At my wedding, I was so engrossed in my pain that I did not pay attention to anything else and I don't think I remember how he looked in person. All that I have seen are the pictures.I swallowed hard and barely managed to tear my gaze off from him, "Shall we?" I don't know why I have started to feel uncomfortable around him and this is a good kind of nervousness.Henry led the
~You are my personal whore in private. ~ALORA POV: I was extremely surprised to hear the conversation between Dad and Henry. Henry has always been good to me but I did not realise that he has been in love with me. If this is true, then Dad was right. The person who has lost everything in this deal is him while I am such a selfish asshole that I never paid attention to his feelings. This is making me feel terrible. He has always been attentive to me while I was always oblivious. I don't know how to make it up to him. Furthermore, as far as I remember, Henry does not like taking care of the family business, so why does he have to suddenly resign from the ministry job and work there full time? For once in life, he needs to be selfish and prioritise himself. That night, I kept on waiting for him but he never returned. Next few days, he continued to avoid having conversations on this topic. In the end, I have no choice but to give in. There is nothing that I can do except for wa
~Stay on the top of me, my cowgirl. ~HENRY POV: I was relieved to see that Alora has patched up with her Dad. Now, she has a real home to go back to. Ever since I met her, I haven't seen her this happy before. She was genuinely relieved to be on the talking terms with her father. "You should try this. This is the speciality of our house." Alora pushed the mushroom soup. I had already asked our house helper to prepare the dinner. Perhaps Alora remained shut in her room the entire day, therefore, she did not catch up on all the preparations that were being made for the day. Otherwise, she would have asked me about it. "Really?" Mr. Scarlett happily took a spoonful of the soup and nodded in appreciation. "I will have to ask my chef to get this recipe." He said and Alora brimmed with happiness. "Whenever you want to have it, you should come here." She invited him. On the other hand, I... who was quietly cutting the steak for her, paused for a couple of seconds. I don't
~Waking up next to you is my most favourite thing.~ALORA POV: I was sitting in my room, browsing through the web. However, I could not stop thinking about Henry. These days, he looks really tense and anxious especially after the visit of his Mom at our place. "Maybe I shouldn't have told him." I was rethinking all the choices that I have made. I am sure he went to their residence and had a pretty bad conversation with them. I exhaled loudly and planned on talking to him tonight. Now, I really need to start paying attention to him. That's the least that I can do in return for his care for me. I was engrossed in my own thoughts when someone knocked on the door. I was laying on my stomach, thus, I instantly got up and straightened my back. Even though I have been married for so long, I still care about my image in front of him. "Come in." I said in a loud voice. The door opened and I found him standing at the door frame. He smiled as our eyes met but I was surprised to see
"Grind my hole.~RHYS POV: Tonight, I am going to see my teammates from the Riders. Ever since I stopped racing, I rarely met with them. It reminds me too much of the old days and suddenly, it gets really hard to get by. I barely managed to get over the hard time. I do not want to get stuck in it again. But tonight, there was a special occasion. Thus, I had no choice but to go there. I handed over the files to Amber and drove to the restaurant where we usually meet. The second I stepped inside, I was met with the familiar chatters and laughter. When they saw me, their faces lit up. It's been more than 3 months since I last saw them. "Hey, cap." Oliver said and just that one word 'cap' was enough to make me feel all sorts of emotions. Suddenly, the blood was drained from their faces and Olie pursed his lips together as he realized the mistake which he had made. Meanwhile, I instantly forced a smile to ease off the palpating tension in the air, "Hey." I gave him a high f
~Cuddle me every night.~HENRY POV: Next day, the first thing that I did was to go and see my parents. They were having breakfast at that time and upon seeing me, my Mom's gaze turned wryly. I glanced at her and turned to face my Dad. He is the only person with whom I can communicate to some extent in this house."I am sure I made it clear that I don't want any sort of interference in my personal life from you two." I was talking to him but my point was directed to Mom."What happened? Why do you look so angry?" He put down the fork and knife as he paid attention to me."She didn't tell you?" I was surprised to know that Mom pulled such a stunt even behind his back.Dad's eyes narrowed on me and then at Mom, "What did you do this time, Catherine?" He questioned her. Perhaps it was better for her to come clean herself.Mom exhaled loudly and glared at me, "Your wife isn't what I thought she is. She really told me." She was disdainful."Mom, are you serious? Alora has every right to te
~I like it wet. What about you?~HENRY POV: I was excited to go home tonight. I have been missing Kylo as well and going together meant that we will have dinner together too. With those two with me, I feel like we are a family. It fills my heart with warmth and something indescribable. To be honest, this makes me look forward to the future. I hurriedly wrapped everything up and rushed home. Even though there were a couple of things I needed to work on, but I brought them home with me. I will work at night. Right now, all I wanted was a comforting time. When I walked inside the condo, I saw Alora. She was sitting on the couch, reading a book. She looked better as compared to last night. "Hi." I was in a good mood. She lifted her head from the book and smiled at me. This is the first time I have been welcomed so warmly. I plopped on the couch. Alora shut the book and gazed at me deeply. There was something different about her behaviour and it was alerting my senses. "Y
~You are the reason why I am alive today.,~ALORA POV:I woke up due to the discomfort in my back. The brightness in the room caused me to shut my eyes again and I rubbed them until I was comfortable with it. I sat up on the bed, for some reason, my body was feeling lethargic and there was also some pain in my stomach. I placed my hand on it to comfort it. However, my eyes suddenly fell on the man who was sleeping on the chair next to the bed. Henry was sleeping soundly. This was my first time seeing him like this. Even though he is my husband and we have been married for a year now. Suddenly, his words resonate in my head. 'We aren't less than strangers. Other than the formal events that we have to attend, have we ever got together in private? Did you ever suggest having dinner with me? Did you ever come to me to have a conversation?' He was absolutely right about it. I have never done any of that. I would only talk to him if I needed his help with something. That's it. Still,
~You take my breath away with your kisses.~HENRY POV: To be honest, I heard the conversation between Rhys and Alora. She wasn't back after a while, thus, I came out looking for her. It wasn't my intention to listen to them but things turned out this way. I am not the kind of a person who loses his temper often but when I do, I am scary as hell and right now, the same rage was boiling inside me. I hate how he was treating her and I hated it more to see how desperate she sounded. Even after all that, she was longing for one glance from him. While she has always been my center of attention. She is a fucking sun and I have no choice but to revolve around her. This situation was making me feel pathetic and I loathed myself. Soon, I heard the sound of the footsteps retreating and the sobs of Alora was the only sound in the air. They were heart wrenching. So painful that I wanted to get Rhys and ask him to take her. If this can make her happy, I am willing to do it. I let her po
