AIDEN "What the hell?" Were the first words that escaped my mouth on seeing the state of Persy's room. Her door had not been locked, so I had entered here freely, without knocking or any need to use my master card. What if it were someone else? She was sprawled on the floor, mumbling incoherent words to herself, whilst pillows, bags and even a broken bottle lay on the floor, all around her. There was liquid on the tiles as well, and I knew it was whiskey from the strong smell of it. Fuck, she had probably overdosed on this. I took off my suit and hung it away, loosening my tie as well and unbuttoning the tight shirt. I rolled the sleeves and untucked it, before rushing to her. I got to where she lay and got down on my knees, pulling her to a sitting position. She was still dressed in her corporate shirt and pants for work, but both were now slightly soaked in the alcohol she had laid in. Thankfully, no broken piece of bottle had pierced her; I made sure to check thoroughly to avo
PERSYI woke up to a clean room, painkillers and even breakfast in a tray. I looked at all these on my bedside table whilst holding my head in my hand. It took everything in me to finally reach for the painkillers, and then get to take them before opening up the tray which was covered with a white wrap.Someone had gotten breakfast for me. I did not allow myself to ponder on who it was, instead I began to clear everything on the tray, one after another.I slept off again after eating.That whole day consisted of me sleeping and waking up to ear, then going back again, nothing extraordinary took place. I also showered at a point, changed my bedsheet and cleaned the room a bit more.When I woke up the other morning, finally strong enough to move around, I screamed out loud on seeing someone sitting on a chair across me."Shh! Please, please don't shout." She begged. I swallowed, looking her up and down with my heart lodged in my mouth. How did Ashley get in here?"What are you doing her
PERSY"I'll come with, if that is what you want." I stood my ground, and was ready to step forward when he spoke again,"Kassie. Don't dare me." His voice was almost a plea at this point. I did not care about that, though. There was no way in hell I would stand back and watch him try to take a pregnant woman off to be tortured. "I'm daring you right now, Aiden. I'm sorry, but I will not let you abuse a pregnant woman." I told him firmly. He watched me in silence like he usually did sometimes, and then when I thought that he would take his leave or something, he walked into my room and shut the door behind him, allowing Sam to drop to the ground, his bloodied body making a mess.Ashley screamed again the moment he dropped to the ground and Aiden followed up with his own scream, "Shut up!"She slammed her palm over her mouth to shut herself up but I could hear her fast breathing behind me. I hated Aiden for making her so scared, what if something happened to her baby? "They crossed me
AIDENI was done avoiding her or pretending that I did not miss her. I was sneaking glances at her and pacifying my dick with haughty rub-offs in the privacy of my bathroom.She was here now, looking sexy as hell, and I was going to make good use of this opportunity. She had pissed me off when she took the side of betrayer and his slut, but she could make it up to me by screaming her loudest.I had bent so that our lips were just an inch away from joining as one, with the intention of starting out with a steamy kiss, but before our lips could touch, she pulled away and pushed me back before walking back a few steps. She completed the rejection by pulling her robe close, blocking my view of that sexy lingerie.One thing about Persy's body? It would look good in absolutely anything. "Aiden, we can't…" She started, pretending like she had not been lost for some seconds there, probably imagining my tongue on her pussy."We are not going back to square one, Kassie." I said the name just
PERSYOral sex had never been good for me. Trevor never let me enjoy it; he was always doing it wrong. He would use his teeth most times, and not in a sexy way. It hurt, more than I enjoyed it, but something told me it would be a different experience with Aiden—everything was different with Aiden.He knelt between my legs, and it made me sort of giddy, and well, scared too. Giddy, because well, he was the Almighty Aiden Bates, and he was kneeling before me… practically. Scared because, well, this was really happening."Relax, doll." He whispered against my weeping yoni and I moaned from how good it felt. Of course, he would realize when I wasn't comfortable."It's going to be a little difficult to do that," I confessed with an awkward laugh. He held my gaze for a few seconds, then whilst still looking into my eyes with his deep gray ones, he placed his thumb on my clit and gently rubbed on it. I threw my head back from the intense pleasure.Oh, fuck, that felt so good."Sex was never
PERSYHe did not avoid me after that. Far from it.Aiden was rather in my room most of the time, using my body anyway he liked. He had recently brought some of his BDSM toys to my apartment, and used them on me as he liked.It did not only end in my apartment, though. Aiden would visit my office, close all blinds, then proceed to gag and fuck me until I was limp in his arms.These past few weeks have been filled with so much pleasure, it made me hate to think about the fact that all of this would end one day. I knew it was wrong, but I wanted this for much more longer. The more he had me, the more I craved him—he was turning into an obsession, one I had to get rid of, and fast."Good to meet you here, clothes off, my cock needs you, and right now." That was Aiden, and he had just shut the door behind him, going ahead to start closing the blinds.I was hundred percent sure that my work colleagues already had an idea about what was going on with us. I knew that these nosy people had al
AIDENI came to meet Clara in my office, seated in one of the waiting chairs. She flashed me a smile on seeing me, one which I did not bother returning. Clara here, is my mom, more specifically—my stepmom. She has been my mom since I was four, and it was very easy to forget the stepmother tag at this point.Clara was not a bad woman, but she was not the best either. For one, I hated the way she was very quiet, easily manipulated. I understood the fact that she got married to Pops at a young age, but still, she had gotten too old to keep acting so damn naive.We literally had no relationship, cordial or whatsoever. We only spoke and acted all loved up in public when the need arose, it was the reason why I was confused as to why she had come to visit."What are you doing here?" I asked her after making myself comfortable on my work chair. Clara just stood up from the waiting chair and began to walk towards me, stopping to sit on the chair opposite me with my office desk between us. I
PERSYThe meeting with Aiden's dad was strictly all about work, nothing too serious. He asked questions like whether or not I would want a new partner to help me out with my workload. I immediately said no, telling him I would be able to manage on my own, because the last thing I wanted was another Ashley.I mean, I knew virtually all the ladies at work had a crush on Aiden but I was sure these partners would want a VIP pass with him.A male partner was out of the question, it was what I told Mr Bates when he asked. I was not ready for Aiden's tantrums when he saw us work together.Mr Bates permitted me to go home immediately after our discussion of about two full hours, and for some reason, I actually wanted to visit Aiden at his office then, just so we could finish what we had started…However, I managed to overcome the urge to do that and went to my car parked outside, proceeding to drive myself home.Yes, I had long driven off the driver assigned to me, though Aiden only agreed to
Thank you for following up Aiden and Persy's story to the very end, you all are MVPs! Special thanks to everyone who voted, left comments, likes… I do not take your encouragement for granted and I would continue to dish out more scintillating books for you to enjoy…Now… I know you’re wondering what’s next already, which is what I plan to announce now! My next book would be coming up in July and is still the Billionaire genre, but this time, a tale of a billionaire music artist—Donovan, and a single mom—Clarissa… Excited yet?See you in July! ❤️
SEVEN MONTHS LATERPERSYI had just finished laying my child to sleep and right now, I was already tired of waiting for my husband, Aiden. I covered the duvet over my body, realizing that this was about to be yet another lonely night. It was almost eight weeks since I gave birth to my daughter, Carolyn, and we had stayed off sex just like the doctor advised. It was two months already since I had sex and I could not take it any longer now.I would tell him about it tomorrow… I promised myself, starting to doze off until the door slammed open and I heard,"Guess who just got an admission to study mechanical engineering in Roberta College for fall? Oh…"I sprung up from the bed though, before he could conclude that I was asleep. I was riddled with joy as I left the bed and ran to him, only stopping in front of him to ask,"Please tell me that this is not one of your expensive jokes…" I snatched the file he had in his hand away and started to check it out. He was grinning as he said, "Y
AIDENHer hormones were acting up. Since that day her ex boyfriend—whom I still wanted to gut his throat, by the way—brought her back to me, she was hornier than ever.She claimed it was the pregnancy hormones and would not stop touching me in public because of it. Whenever I refused to touch her before going to work, she would use a vibrator and went the video to me all of sudden, while I was WORKING.Not that I was complaining, I loved this side of her as much as I loved other sides of her. Persy has always been stubborn, it was nothing surprising at this point.The thing was that, I had met our doctor a day after she came back to check her vitals and he confirmed that she and the baby were doing well, but he warned us still, to lay low for sometime to avoid any casualties. He was seeing sone little issues, but if we could just hold on with sex for sometime, it would not be so difficult to handle.It was punishment, but anything for her safety. Persy had heard the doctor as well, bu
PERSYWe slept on the couch, but I woke up on my bed. I had a full smile on my face as my eyes met with the morning sun. I was never a morning person, but I could understand why I was smiling so hard today. Finally. Finally, I was going to meet Aiden again, it almost felt surreal, it felt like years since I last saw him… all I wanted was to sneak into his arms and stay there for as long as I could, away from everything…I sat up on the bed with much effort and stretched, yawned… all of that.Without asking or bothering to check, I knew that it was Trevor who had laid me on my bed. He would always do that when I fell asleep on a place I was not supposed to and so without question, I knew that this was him, too.Knowing that Trevor had a busy schedule most of the time, I hurried off the bed and ran towards the shower to get myself ready for the visit to Aiden.It was the quickest shower I had ever taken, and the quickest that I had sourced for clothes as well.I wore the first choice,
PERSYWe talked at length. I had never seen Mr Bates so emotional. He seemed so sorry for all he had gone to his children, for how he was attempting to ruin their lives.I did nothing other than stare at him as he relayed his apologies to me, convincing me over and over to come back with him. I looked outside the window, mesmerized by the fire now. It was almost evening, and the sky was so beautiful. Everything about this place was so serene, I had dreamt of giving birth to my child here so many times, I did not think I was ready to give up that dream yet."I am sorry, Mr Bates, I have to give birth to my child here first. Aiden is doing very well for himself, I see it in so many pictures and videos of him. He can continue to do well without me on his side, I mean, I never went to college! What could I possibly add to the growth of your company?" I questioned the man but he shook his head with a tight smile on his face."You do not seem to understand me, do you? I have said that I do
AIDENI had just finished reading a letter from my supposed dead brother and just like that, my mood was ruined. I glared at the letter so hard, it should have disappeared into thin air already. He had given me a serious warning in there, telling me to stop looking for me or he would look for Persy and make me regret it. To show me he was not making empty threats, the man attached a picture to his message.It was a picture of Persephone staring outside a window, smiling hard at the view outside. Fuck, I missed her so much… always so damn happy about the littlest things, it made me want to give her the world.Only the upper part of her showed in the picture and at the back of the paper was written; Oops, already found her. You should get off my back, boy, unless you do not really care about her like that?…I slammed the paper back on my desk, my face masked with a blinding rage. My eyes were no doubt, filled with anger at the moment, I knew that whomever crossed me in the next hour wa
PERSY I stared at my baby bump in the mirror, as little droplets of water dripped down my body. Yeah, that was not water but dirty, yucky sweat from trying to exercise all morning. Later on, I would resume marketing my products which were jewelries and makeup products that I advertised online.The accessories did not need my face or body, which was why I chose this line of business and so far, it was doing pretty well. I made enough sales to get myself what I needed and not having to touch the money I had set aside for college.I would be lying low in the meantime, until I was sure that the backlash I would be getting from social media would not be enough to pull my brand down.Sometimes, social media could just be so vicious. It was a great tool for business advertisement but once the people on Social media crossed you off, it would be pretty hard to get on their good side again.For now, they were torn between liking me or hating me. Most people said I was a cheapskate and gold di
AIDEN"Sir! Sir!" I turned at once, wondering if it was indeed me that the entire board directors waited for to speak. When they all kept staring at me in silence, I got the message and cleared my throat as I began,"Uh… what are we speaking on again? Can someone remind us, please?"They stared wordlessly at me for a couple of minutes until Greg cleared his throat and offered, "You said you had a proposition for us and would speak on it as soon as we were done giving our opinions on the new partners."Oh, that.I offered them a weak smile and sat up, beginning to engage them on what they wanted.When the very awkward meeting was over, I went back to my office at once, planning to just take my car keys and other essentials so I could leave this place.It had been more than two months now since Persy left me, and I had been a shadow of myself since then. It did not help that on the day she left, there were pictures flying all over the internet of her caught hugging Trevor so tightly.I
PERSY"He hardly even hesitated or anything! It was like he had been expecting this news for a long time! You need to see how he passed the papers to me so I would sign, I almost cried right there but I just had to hold myself until I came back. It just seemed like I was signing divorce papers… but isn't this also similar? This just means that I will not have anything to do with Aiden anymore, until God knows when." I relayed to Trevor who sat on the edge of my bed while I sat, lying against the headboard.He was listening attentively; a skill which I never guessed that he had in him. I continued, "You know, I thought I knew true love before… um, when I met you. But it just turns out that we had been playing with each other. We had both been using each other for what we had to offer, and nothing more. With Aiden, it is so much different. I can feel his love from a distance, I try to hate him and stay away from him but I am only killing myself the more I do. I do not know if my love f
