CHAPTER 2

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Sarah is a journalist in her mid twenties, who works for a local newspaper and spends most of her days in the office, conducting interviews, researching stories, and writing articles. Her job is her passion, and she loves nothing more than uncovering the truth and sharing it with the world.

Over the next few days, Sarah who was sitting on her couch in her small room found herself thinking about Daniel more and more. 

Her small house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, just a few blocks away from the city center. It's a modest one-bedroom home with a cozy living room, a small kitchen, and a bathroom. The walls are painted in a warm beige color, and the floors are made of hardwood, giving the space a comfortable and inviting feel.

As she looked around her cozy, comforting home, Sarah knew that she had achieved something truly great even though it was this small. She was even more determined to achieve her dreams and this was a starting point for her.

As she sat on her couch she couldn't shake the feeling that there was something she was missing, something that would make a great story if she could uncover it.

She decided to do some research, looking up everything she could find on Daniel Blackwood. She read through articles, watched interviews, and even dug through his social media accounts. But no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find anything that would explain why he acted the way he did.

After her last time in his office, she has unsuccessfully tried to schedule another appointment with him. It was almost a week she had gone in for that interview that had seemed unproductive.

As an interim worker, this interview meant a lot to her as it was going to secure her the promotion she had always wanted at Horizon News Network, known as HNN for short . 

Horizon News Network is a renowned global news agency with a reputation for unbiased, investigative journalism. Their team of reporters and correspondents are committed to delivering the latest news and in-depth analysis on politics, business, science, and technology from around the world.

HNN is known for their fearless approach to journalism, going where other news agencies fear to tread to uncover the truth. Their reporters are unafraid to challenge the powerful and hold them accountable for their actions. They pride themselves on their commitment to accuracy, fairness, and integrity.

The firm is headquartered in a state-of-the-art newsroom in New York City, with bureaus in major cities around the world. HNN has won numerous awards for their coverage of breaking news stories, investigative reporting, and documentary filmmaking.

Sarah couldn't help but think about how her life would change if she finally got this promotion but the one thing she needed to pull through was already looking impossible.

Looking back at her life, Sarah had a complex and difficult family history that had shaped her in many ways. She was the only surviving child of her parents after she lost her elder brother at the age of ten. 

He was like a role model to her and was the closest person to her. His death left a vacuum in her heart and even after months of his passing, she still struggled with nightmares of him.

Growing up, Sarah had always felt like she was in his shadows, struggling to find her own place in the world. Her parents were both successful lawyers who had high expectations for their children, and they often compared Sarah unfavorably to her brother.

Despite this, Sarah had always been a bright and curious child, with a love of learning and a natural talent for writing. She had always been drawn to the world of journalism, and she had pursued this passion with determination and hard work.

In college, Sarah had worked tirelessly to build up her resume and gain valuable experience in the field of journalism. She had landed internships at top publications and had won awards for her writing, but she still struggled with self-doubt and feelings of insecurity.

Sarah's family history had also been marked by tragedy, as her mother had passed away when Sarah was just a teenager. This loss had left a deep and lasting impact on her, and she had struggled with feelings of grief and isolation for many years afterward.

Despite these challenges, Sarah had managed to overcome her past and was determined to make a name for herself on her own. She was not afraid to take risks and pursue her dreams of building a successful career as a journalist.

Lost in her thoughts, she found herself fantasizing about him. In her fantasies, she saw him drawing her close to her and planting his lips on hers. He carried her to his bed and continued kissing her deeply as he started undoing the dinner gown she was wearing. 

Left with her undies and while they were both still on their toes, he gave a slow stare at her and quickly undid her bra. With her breasts and hard nipples staring at him, he gently massaged her nipple with one hand and used his tongue to tease the other nipple.

He sucked on one nipple for a while while using his hand to gently run the other nipple, after which he switched sides. As he hungrily played with her nipples, she could feel the hard swell of his organ. 

He gently placed her on the bed and this time around removed the last item of clothing from her body which was her panties. As he moved one hand from her nipple and rubbed on her gentle mound in between her legs, he noticed she was already wet and ready for him.

On her own part, she busied her hands by gently massaging his hairy back. While he intensely sucked on her nipples. 

Sarah could feel her nipples tighten as she fantasized about what Daniel was capable of doing to her. With her eyes closed, she continued visualizing what Daniel was doing to her when her ringing phone brought her back to reality. Feeling a little bit disappointed she picked up the phone which was lying next to her, looking at the screen which revealed the caller was from her best friend Emily.
