A depressed whimper left her lips at that. When she turned, she tried to mask her disappointed look while raising a questionable brow at him.
"I was rough the first time wasn't I?"
He'll bring this up again, won't he?
"You didn't know." She bowed her head, ashamed that she just threw herself at him shamelessly for him to devour.
"I'm still sorry. I knew about my problem. I shouldn't have stayed the night." He put a finger under her chin to tilt her head.
"Okay. Guess we're doing this." She sighed heavily. "I wanted you to stay." Maybe she should be the one to be apologizing since she knew what could
The loud chirping of birds and the warm ray seeping through the windows to the room caught her face, causing her to wake up.She stayed silently for a while before turning to look at her side. It was empty.She got up to the washroom, living room and finally the kitchen but he wasn't there. It was only when her eyes hit the clock that she was assured that he left.She walked back to the bedroom and laid down at the side he slept on. His exotic perfume and scent filled her nostrils and enveloped her. She felt as if he was still right there. Even the pillows smell of him, his aftershave, and hair cream. She loved every bit of it.And as she remembered last night, she couldn't stop the smile from taking over her face. He had taught her how to make almond tea then they ate dinner toget
"No. I just felt–" she didn't finish before he slipped out of her, turned her, and raised her onto the desk."You're scared that someone will walk in on us?""Isn't it obvious? We could get caught and I don't..."He silenced her by driving back inside her. He lifted her such that her legs were wrapped around his waist securely then he began to walk towards the entrance while still thrusting. He was so strong and did it so well and effortlessly."Wait. What if..""No one is going to dare come here. Trust me.""Then why are you..."He slammed the door shut when they got there and he backed her to it. "Try not to shout so much."And righ
She spent most of the time daydreaming and reminiscing about her day that she slept late. After sending her clothes to the laundry, she prepared almond tea and went to the gym.She got tired quicker than usual and when she got home, she was too exhausted to do anything and so she slept.When she woke up, her eyes met the window first and she saw the sun setting."Oh shit!" She threw the cover off her and stepped down. Wilhelm will be here to pick her any moment from now and here she is still snoring in bed.When she raised her head, Wilhelm was sitting in front of her dresser with his eyes glued on her.He wore a pair of black chinos and a gray shirt with a brown jacket."The hell. You scared the shit out of me!"
She leaned back into the couch and raised her eyes to the sky."Now that I think of it, you two actually have some things in common.""What are those things?""Apart from where you live, he also has this rich English accent.""Is the devil from London?""No. He's from hell just like you also came from England to stay in Los Angeles.""Alright. Comparison check. We both came from our hell and settled in one city.""He can sing very well. Can you?" She asked.
She rested her head against the head of the sofa and just stared into the sky. Before long, she closed her eyes to drown herself for a while.In a split second, Wilhelm had his hand beneath her thighs to raise her from the couch."What?" She asked defensively."Let's go to bed."She didn't say anything again until she felt her body against the soft mattress and got enveloped by the freshly washed scent of bedsheets.He stood over her, watching her."Why are you looking at me like that?" She arched her brow."I think there's a problem." He scratched the side of his head."Problem? What problem?" She raised herself a l
BTBBWilhelm didn't have sex with her that moment until dawn when she began shivering from the cold. While trying to keep her warm, they got lost in the moment and couldn't control the urge.He had gone slowly while looking into her eyes and showering lingering kisses on every part of her body as if he was making love to her.He dropped her home late that day and here she is at the office, recounting all that transpired during the weekend with a smile that has refused to go away from her face.**FLASHBACK**"Goodness!" Wilhelm had exclaimed when she opened her eyes. It was already morning and the sun had begun to rise.
Once she pushed the door open to step out for work, her jaw dropped. Standing in front of her in blood and flesh is no other than Arabella Abbey, her best friend.Ara's eyes lingered on her longingly before hardening to the "I-don't-give-a-fuck" look.Destiny smiled sadly, yet utterly relieved to see her. It feels like forever since she last saw her."Don't get happy. I'm here to warn you to not dare come to my office on Friday but you can wait until I'm done if you want to. Is that okay?"First, she gave her a choice and then took it back."Yes ma'am."Ara's lips were pursed firmly, she nodded once, then twice before taking a step back. Another step then she turned around and left.Destiny chose to le
"I am done for today, please. How about we schedule...." Ara stopped when she looked up to see Destiny instead of the patient she thought."Hey," Destiny whispered."I said you should wait for me. I didn't say you could come in.""Well, I'm in already.""That's what I saw." She proceeded to write whatever note she was writing. Destiny sat on the couch in front of her desk, making herself comfortable.She also remembered her moments in this office. This is the room where she had her biggest breakthrough and got the bestest friend along the way. A friend she almost drove away or already did because of intransparency.Even now, how will she make up with her without concealing the
“Hi.” She squeaked in a mixture of fake excitement and genuine nervousness. “I trust things are going well for you in London. What you went to do, how's it going?”After asking, she waited for his response and when it didn't come, she tapped on the dim screen to see if he dropped the call.But he was still on it.She sighed and leaned into the leather seat. “Look, I wasn't ignoring you. It's just…”“Just what?” He cuts her off.“Nothing.”“Nothing? Did you realize that you're ghosting me? How would you have felt if I was the one doing that to you?”“It's not me, and I know you don't give a fuck.”“Are you shitting me? How haven't you seen that I care for you?”“Care? But you don't love me.”“That's not what we're talking about.”“Really?”“You said you'll wait. You said you'll give it time.”“Oh, and then you expected me to have hope and wait when you're literally going back into the arms of your ex-girlfriends?”“What?”“ I don't want any heartbreaking surprises, and that's why I'm l
For sometime now, before he left, she had seen him ignore calls and disconnect them with a grunt and frown on his face.Anytime she asks, he'd immediately plaster on a wide smile and tell her it was nothing but she saw it in his eyes.When he said he was leaving, it didn't really shock her but she was scared he'd lose him.If she had known that it was his business that wasn't doing well, she wouldn't have tried keeping him around.That is why she's taking this decision now. It will be difficult but since when did Destiny depend on someone to live?A bad habit she needs to rid off.Once she arrived at the corporation and entered the office she shared for an unbelievably long time with Wilhelm, she realized it was time to shoulder everything.A lot has changed. Dislike quickly turned to immense likeness then, love.Thinking back to it, they've already been through a lot. He should understand when she finally tells him that he no longer needs to work for her.He never agreed but she hope
..........The buzzing of her phone woke her up. She blindly searched for it and when she finally got a hold of it, she answered without looking at the ID."I'm still in..." She was mumbling when she got cut off."Hi Des, it's...wait. Were you saying you're still in bed?"Destiny got up to a sitting position and begrudgingly rubbed her eyes. "Ara?""Yes, baby."Destiny rolled her eyes. "You sound cheery.""Of course. Wanna guess it?""You know I just woke up. My brain needs time before it starts functioning.""I'll buy your excuse.""So?""I'm going on a date.""Oh wow. You found someone or it's a man.""I found someone.""That's wonderful Ara. I'm really happy for you." Destiny got out of the bed, fully woken by Ara's good news."It doesn't mean I'm over you. I still love you, Des."Destiny sighed. It's been months and yet she's still saying that."My
.......After seven hours, her system automatically became restless. He started expecting a call or text from him.Slowly, the sun hid back behind its clouds and she was about to retire to bed herself.But could she sleep without talking to him?Her phone was beside her and she kept checking it every second. Every message tone, every incoming call sent her jumping up to reach her phone only to be disappointed.At eleven, she began to force herself to sleep as she was no longer sure he'd call her. Midnight and she was still struggling to sleep.She placed the phone on the bedside table and disappeared under the covers, shutting her eyes tight.It's not been a day since he left yet she miss him, so much. Even the bed she lays on keeps reminding her of him and how it had felt like with him on it.Just when she was really falling into slumber, her phone began to ring. She avoided it but when it kept ringing and she lo
"Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss Christmas with me." She brushed her thumb over his beautiful lips while staring deep into his blue-green eyes.She feels so weak and helpless."I won't." He kissed her thumb."Come back soon." She whispered, her voice threatening to break."I will."She dropped her thumb, tightened their entwined hands, and leaned into him, resting her head against his arm.Sooner or later, she'd have to say goodbye and she's not ready for that.
They only had tonight and tomorrow until he leaves.After practicing, she watched him prepare dinner for them and in the night, they made love over and over again.She woke up with him trying to get her off his body."No." She whispered with eyes closed while clinging onto him like glue to paper."Hey, I need to...""Shhh." She placed a finger on his lips."Please.""Let me sleep for a while.""I gotta pee
The moment the elevator dinged, her heart leaped along with it but she didn't flinch and pretended to be engrossed. The closer his steps got, the more his fragrance filled her nostrils. Her insides tightened in excitement. He closed earlier than usual today. "Mmm...what is it you're reading?" He came around and kissed the corners of her lip. "Why do you wanna know? You never cared." She asked, smiling but never looking up from the book. "I've seen you go from scared to happy, in love and despair. More of despair. You've cried a bucket full already. I can't take it." He pitched in a sorrowful tone.
Destiny invited a waiting Ara to have breakfast with them. A very awkward breakfast.When it was over she asked Ara to her room but she declined."Outside then?""Is there not a seat on the balcony?""There is." Destiny breathed, clutching to the sides of her dress.When they got there, Destiny sat on the wicker chair, expecting her to join her but she didn't.The early morning sun of mid-July warmed Destiny's skin to the point of scorching. July weather in America has always been harsh. She looked down from the blinding sunlight while waiting for Ara to speak.Ara stood against the railings and placed her hand on it while her eyes remained below, taking in the
"Since you let the other sibling in then this whole thing of keeping them away is not necessary. I'll let Ara in if she comes again.""No Grandpa.""Why? I like her more.""She doesn't want us together." She crossed her arm over her chest defiantly."I don't care about that.""Then what do you care about?""Fairness. You can't let the other one in and leave the other.""Ara is bent on breaking us apart.""At least hear her out.""You're on her side aren't you?""If I were you I wouldn't be bedding my best friend's brother." He s
