PERSY The moment the door slammed shut, I ran to my bed, jumped on it and screamed so loudly into my pillow. It's not what you think. Or maybe it is. Why would he be fucking those women in my presence? He just wanted to get a rise out of me, right? He would not really have sex with those women in front of me, right? "God, I hate him." I muttered to myself. "I hate him, I hate him so much." I stormed off to my bathroom after that and took the longest shower I had ever taken in a long time. The next day came too quickly, and I was literally on my tippy toes, checking my phone every second, hoping for a text or call that would end everything. He could fuck those women if he wanted, but please, not in front of me. Those women would definitely satisfy him more than I ever would. I was sure of it. What if he decided he would keep doing it every time? Why was I so bothered by this? Well, maybe… just maybe I had developed a kind of… teeny crush for the man. I said, maybe! That was the o
PERSYIf I thought that day was my worst ever, then I had totally underestimated the days after it. He changed women occasionally, and at times, these ones did not see the need to be friendly with me, so they just watched me retire to the living room. Actually, the women he changed were just three in total.Twin blondes, and the brunette.The blondes hardly ever regarded me, and of course, the brunette neither, after that first day. After a sex session with one of the twins on one fateful day, Aiden waited for me in the bedroom, just to ask if I had changed my mind. I did not respond to him, simply because if I had emptied my mind to him at that point, I would have ended up getting punished for it.He left after pestering me for minutes. I never cried anymore, just did the usual—take my stuff from the bedroom so I could go sleep in the living room, until it was all over. One time, they had sex for over three hours, I wanted to come into the bedroom and tear those girls off him so bad,
AIDEN"You're late." And just like that, she halted in her tracks and then slowly, very slowly, her slender body turned to face me. Her face was flushed a light red, and her lips had that innocent-looking pout which she always did unconsciously."A-Aiden?" She stuttered, her lips trembling like she had just been caught committing the deadliest offense. I began to move closer to her, and of course, she began to take some steps back.I stopped in my tracks and allowed my eyes to roam over her attire. Even in an ordinary shirt and loose office pants, she still looked hot as fuck. It had to be her aura, Kassie had never looked this hot, even in skimpy wears.I literally said fuck it, and I threw caution to the wind as I said to her, "Come to my office, I have some files to show to you."I turned at once and started to head towards my office, but after walking a few steps without hearing her footsteps, I turned back around and saw that she was still rooted in the spot, a sheen of sweat ha
PERSYI was quiet for the next few hours. Was he truly asking me this? Like, he really wanted to know me—Persephone Walters, and not Kassandra Aaron?"Uh… me?" I could not help asking, just to be sure. He looked around in a dramatic way and when his eyes finally landed on me again, he asked, "Do you know of any other Persephone Walters who is currently sharing the room with us right now?"I scratched my neck, trying so hard to stop myself from moving away when he began to move closer on the couch.He smirked, on noticing my effort, then he asked again, "Tell me about you. The real Persephone Walters. This might be your only chance."At the mention of the last sentence, I was alert, more than ready to pour my heart out to him. It had been so long since I had someone to share stuff with. It would not be so bad if he knew at least one or two things about me now, would it?"My name… My name is Persephone Walters, but you know that already." I giggled after saying that, like some damn lov
PERSYFor the next three days, we avoided each other. I had mixed feelings about the fact that the feeling was mutual. He wanted to be out of my hair as much as I yearned to be out of his… I was not sure how that made me feel yet…It was another morning trying to figure out my job here at this construction company. Aiden gave me some tips on the first day, but I did not feel like going back anytime soon to ask him for any more tips. Would he give me that?That was the actual question here.Sighing, I rounded up arranging my desk and I had just opened my laptop when someone knocked on the door. It was just me in this office, and I never got visitors. Who could it be now?I sluggishly stood up when the knocking persisted, and with a loud voice I called out, "On my way."The knocking eased up after that. When I got to the door, I began to arrange myself; properly tuck in my shirt into my pants, arrange my collar, etcetera. I mean, just to look presentable, we did not know who our visitor
PERSYTrevor meant what he said about not giving up on pursuing me. He had not put the words out exactly like that, but in essence, it was what he meant. It was so fucking annoying at this point.From the flowers, the notes, the food, the presents… so much more. Every single time I got to work, there was something new at my door. My work colleagues would tease me every morning about it, always talking about, "I wish I could get such a man, I want him just like yours."Some other person would come up with, "Girl, you are so lucky!"And then someone else, "I swear, you won with this man. Please, do not break our Boss's heart…"Of course, they thought everything I received was from Aiden.I took their unsolicited remarks with an awkward smile, blaming Trevor solely for the unwanted attention.Every morning, I grew even more scared to go to work, worried about which surprise I could be getting from Trevor this time. No one in the office knew that he was the one sending these things to me,
AIDENTo say I struggled to hold back with her would be an understatement. At some point I felt like I was fighting for my life. I wanted to destroy those flowers so bad, but at the same time I was not interested in looking or acting like some creep.I went back to my office and cleared my table in rage. Everything came crashing down but no one came to inquire about the noise as the walls and doors were soundproof.Sam had just told me about the presents this Trevor guy kept giving to her. It was just when I was evaluating her job performance. I had found her really good, despite the fact that she was yet to attain college education. I wanted to go inform her that she would be representing me at an awards night, but Sam walked into my office with the news before I could meet her about my plan.My mood was instantly ruined, even if from the tapes watched, she never entertained the Trevor guy. I had decided not to monitor the cameras in her office because I did not want to seem so despe
PERSYIt was so comfy here. My pillow had never been so comfortable, and maybe it was because the universe knew how tired I had been last night that I was awarded some extra comfort. I liked it so much here, in fact, actually, I did not feel like waking up any longer.I kept rubbing my body against the pillow unconsciously, half-knowing that I was rubbing against something hard, but also not awake enough to think about it.A deep groan broke me out of my reverie. I froze on hearing the sound, because did my pillow just… groan? Little by little, I started to realize that what I was snuggled up against was in no way a pillow, and the realization caused me to start praying that it was not who I thought it was.However, his face was the first thing I saw when I finally peeled my eyes open. He was shirtless, and his eyes were half closed, his expression serious as we stared into each other's eyes.Aiden. Aiden was in my bed, cuddling with me like it was such a regular thing to do, like he
