Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Twenty-nine
Olivia was going to give Aleth an earful. The hell she had gone overboard this time around. So she barged into Aleth's room and let the door slam behind her so that it relayed the intensity of her anger, but Alethia had crashed on the floor, and for a moment, Olivia hesitated. "Aleth…""Oliv, not now, please."Olivia inhaled. "Then when, Aleth? I know you had a plan--we had a plan--but this is just too much. You're being unnecessarily mean to Ethan, and that's not fair."Alethia chuckled wryly as she turned to face her. Olivia saw her wipe the tears that had streamed down both cheeks, but Alethia shut her empathy before it could materialize. "Unnecessarily mean you say?""Yes! You didn't have to say all those things you said to him downstairs. And you broke the phone he got for you? That was unnecessary.""So, what would you have preferred I did? Grovel at his feet for getting me a new phone? And now, don't forget he broke my phone…""A mistake he was trying to apologize for, you me

Soft lips, firm hands, and the familiar scent of his body. His mouth enclosed hers in such a way that she didn't have to do much. She just had to follow as he directed, even as he thrust his tongue into her mouth. Alethia moaned gently, going light-headed and letting loose of her body so that it fell at the mercy of his gentle hold. Her short gown left a great deal of her leg bare, and each time Ethan's lap scraped on it, she felt desires that hardened her nipples. She could feel the bareness of her clit each time it connected with the roughness of her panties, and each sensation left her numb and squirming. And she had Ethan's magnificent body to hang onto.They both shifted, and then her knees separated a bit, and with her left leg closing back to the right, her lap gently raked over Ethan's hardness. Alethia shuddered on her feet from a fright she couldn't understand. She'd learned that the 'first' time would hurt, but the books didn't say anything about how to deal with the pain.

Ethan pulled over on the pavement in front of the lawn. When he looked at Alethia, she was pinning on a smile while looking out the window. He came down and hurried around the car to get the door for her, and she appreciated the gesture with a wide smile.But she wouldn't have guessed that Ethan was going to pick her off the ground and carry her bridal style--Alethia's heart jumped with her body as Ethan made to balance her in his arms, and she gasped for breath."Ethan," she exclaimed. "Yes?" He didn't seem to know what was wrong with carrying her that way, especially because they were outside. But Alethia had seen the old couples down the street earlier when Ethan drove passed their house."I can walk," she whispered. "Oh, it's fine. Segun suggested you don't stress much. And that includes not walking a far distance."Alethia chuckled. "Segun?"Ethan nodded lightly. "Yes. After all, he's the professional in this aspect.""But I only have to walk into the house, and you can support

"You had sex with Ethan?" Olivia asked, excited for details. "What? No!""You mean you were both naked but didn't have sex? How is that even possible?"Alethia sighed exasperatedly. "I didn't say we were naked. Ethan walked in on me while I was coming out of the bathroom, then the towel slipped down."She could hear the rustle of Olivia's bedspread and the silence that preceded her desire for Alethia to say more. "Go on...is that all?" "That's all.""What? Is he stupid? Shouldn't he have grabbed you and then made steamy love to you?"Alethia swallowed hard and lay gently on the bed, staring at the lit ceiling. She painted the imagery in her head again, with Ethan standing there while she stood uncensored to his view:His eyes are dark and calm as if he is taking in all the details of her body, careful where to hold her first. He approaches her like he has all the time in the world, slowly even as his left hand grabs her by her waist.Ethan stares deeply into her eyes and cups her c

Ethan couldn't sleep throughout the night. The thought of Alethia kept him tossing and turning in bed, and wasn't Emily sleeping beside him as if his guilt had come to stay at his face?At a point he took a long look at her, then took a long breath for himself, confused. He supposed if Emily had informed him of her arrival earlier in the day, he could have gotten himself prepared to face the guilt of seeing her and pretending that everything was okay.Alethia had grimaced like a sky that was going to rain when Emily kissed him this evening. And of course, he wasn't a fool not to have figured out that she had felt jealous. At this point, Ethan knew he was at a crossroads, and that whatever decision he ended up making might as well be the hardest of his life.It was barely dawn when Ethan finally rose from the bed. Apart from having been up throughout the night and having nothing to do, he figured if he made breakfast earlier, he could avoid seeing Alethia before going to work--if only

It was the 24th day of the month. Alethia had looked it up overnight to be sure of how many days she had left to prevent the impending proposal. But, what if her mom had been impatient and so had proposed to Ethan overnight? What if Ethan had said yes?Categorically, Ethan shouldn't have any reason to say no, unless, of course, he had feelings for Alethia as well. But that means the disaster that Alethia had been afraid of would finally happen, and it means everything would eventually fall apart. She'd been up early by the time her mom was ready for work, and though Emily seemed happy as if something had happened overnight, Ethan didn't have a ring on his finger when he was leaving the house. There was no doubt they had sex, and it had been glorious, or wasn't her mom smiling from eyes to cheeks while clinging onto Ethan as they left for work together? Now Alethia didn't know how to feel about that.But she reckoned that to gain something, she'd have to be prepared to lose somethin

The morning air smells of spring. It's smooth and chilly, and it carries the rough yet tender aroma of the briefly wet ground overnight. Alethia stretched in bed and smiled widely without any particular reason--waking up again was enough reason, she thought, and spring was also her favorite time of year.Pushing her blanket aside, she breathed deeply and somewhat embraced the feeling of calm and peace. She could feel her heart weighed less because the proposal hadn't happened, and her mom had probably gone on another trip.But as soon as she sat up, it hit her hard that she owed Ethan an explanation for the stunt she pulled the other day. Nonetheless, she didn't regret pulling that stunt. For what it's worth, it served its purpose...right?She got out of bed after deciding that she shouldn't wait around while Ethan left for work, and just then she heard a knock on her door. Alethia's heart rolled in the mud of fright, and it seemed like she was stuck at the moment. Didn't her mom lea

The wind howled gently across the dark skied night, beating along with the eeriness that usually precede a disaster. Ethan could feel a premonition, like a giant rock was hanging above his head and the knots holding it were loosening every second that went by.Instinctively, he looked above his head to be sure he was safe--he smiled--what was he thinking, that a rock would literally be hanging above his head?He breathed deeply and resolved that he was just being paranoid. Or maybe the atmospheric imbalance was getting to him.It was barely 7 pm. The firmaments loomed dangerously on the tall buildings that were barely visible from the balcony, with their lights as the substitute for the stars. Ethan assumed that the sky was preparing for a downpour, but that was yet another thought.He gulped the red wine in his glass and turned around, then dropped the cup on the coffee table beside him. He reclined on the rail, backing the city and what awaits it. Then he stared keenly at the dimly

Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Epilogue
It's been two months, five days, and eleven hours since Alethia moved in with Ethan. Two months, five days, and eleven hours of carrying more than just his love and the excitement that had known no rest.Alethia leaned on him and took a deep breath to relax her body which had begun to feel heavy just recently. They were sitting on the large couch in the living room, facing the expanse of glass that opened to the garden. The sun was setting ahead, the songbirds chirped with excitement in the garden--Alethia took a deep breath again. Then she reckoned that, while others had dreamt of a life like her own, she was living it. "Are you okay?" Ethan demanded."I'm fine, love," she said."Should I get you more water?" he asked, then he attempted to get up from the couch, but Alethia held him down."I'm fine, my love," she said. Then she picked up the glass cup of water on the ottoman upholstered in red in front of the couch. She drank and returned the cup. "See? I'm okay with this.""But I

Ethan adjusted to sit properly. "I'm sorry, Emily. I know I should have told you earlier, but-" Emily interrupted."But you didn't, Ethan. You wouldn't have told me if you hadn't mistakenly picked up your call that day, while you, Segun, and Olivia discussed it."Ethan breathed deeply. "I'm sorry."Emily chortled. "Are you? I just can't believe you had gone for my daughter while we were together.""I've loved Alethia longer than I've stayed in this house for," he said and raised his head to look at Emily. She was looking at him strangely, confused, to say the least. "Yes, I met Alethia before you introduced us."Emily scoffed. "I see you're trying to meander your way around this, heh?" "No, I'm not. It's the truth. I surmise she'd left home that night, I helped her out, we felt a connection, and though we didn't express it then. It never left."Emily swallowed. Of course, she remembered the night when Alethia packed her bags and left the house--Emily had been so devastated, more so b

...but Alethia approached him. She moved closer so that the space left between them was so small that it could pass through the eye of a needle, not caring that he was holding his breath and trying so hard not to look at her. She swallowed the saliva that suddenly welled in her mouth, then she held him by his arms stiffened like a rock, and stood on her toes as she placed her lips lightly on his.He didn't respond. He didn't even as much as lower his gaze to look at her. But Alethia knew she'd be able to break him. Firstly she settled back on her feet and took a deep breath, then she stood on her toes again and pressed her lips on his, persistently. She could feel him going numb the more he tried to hold his wit in place, but his lips twitched now, and though he held back immediately, his hands had attempted for her waist. Alethia pressed her body closely to him so that his knees broke and he slumped on the bedside table. He looked sharply into her eyes now, while she held back for

Alethia was staring blankly at the TV. She could barely make out what the presenter was saying, and what relevance the game show was supposed to have with her state of mind. But Olivia had promised that it was necessary, at least to distract Alethia's mind for a while. She looked at Olivia who was sitting opposite. Olivia eyes were fixed on the TV, and she was grinning as if she was the one who needed the moment the most. At a point, she laughed, and then she instinctively turned to look at Alethia, only to raise a brow at Alethia's indifference."Are you okay?" she asked. Alethia shrugged. "Isn't it obvious that I just about exist?""You can live a little as well."She dragged a breath. "You know I find no interest in anything these days. But I'll be fine, okay?"Olivia glimpsed at the TV and sighed wearily. Then she got to her feet and came over to sit beside Alethia. "Should we go out?" Alethia chuckled. "I don't think my mom would love that. She brought you here to babysit me,
Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Fifty-seven
Chapter Fifty-sevenThe days didn't just roll away as they should, they dragged slower than a snail, creating longings and weariness as if to punish Ethan, and by the time it was a week, he was regretting his decision to stay away, and because he couldn't just crawl out of nowhere and appear in front of Alethia as if he hadn't made her worry for days. As if he hadn't put her through so much that he could feel would have been unbearable for her. Ethan breathed deeply on one of those beds that wouldn't stop creaking with his weight. He'd rented a room at a remote place to make it impossible for anyone to locate him. The room was small, though it contained three beds and usually gave access to three people at a time, as its purpose was only for people who needed to pass the night. Ethan had had to rent the room all to himself, and the bad condition of the room was a way to punish himself. But he'd learned to make do with the ceiling painted in white because each time he stared at it, ev

"Alethia, stop!" Olivia appealed, halting immediately as she got to the last step of the stairs. Apart from the obvious, that the situation was escalating beyond what Alethia might be able to handle afterward, Olivia could feel it in her bones that the danger that loomed above was only hanging loosely and waiting for either Alethia or her mom to cut the tiny rope which was barely holding it in place. But Alethia was too annoyed to stop, and her legs were too ahead of her as if their purpose at that moment was to get her out of the house, away from her mom so that she wouldn't consider going back to do what the evil voice in her head whispered the moment she felt the torrent of her mom's hand on her face. Her hair had bristled when the disaster landed on her face. She would have treated her mom like any other woman, had reality not put them in the same house. And had she not called her 'mom' even in the heat of the dissension? She jerked the door to herself and thundered out of the h
Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Fifty-five
Alethia heard a sharp sound, prompting her fingers away from the keyboard of her laptop as she looked at the door immediately. What was that? She thought as she hesitated to look back at what she was doing on her computer. The sound had been light to be that of thunder, but it had been loud enough to shake something in her for worries. She got out of bed and removed her glasses, then she dropped them blindly on the bedside table. She approached the door gently, taking her time should the sound come again and it was nothing. But nothing came. All she could hear when she got closer to the door was the spiteful voice of her mom. Alethia opened the door and came out. She'd just closed the door behind her and turned around when she saw Ethan crouched, his face clouded with persistent hysteria like that of a man whose glory days had come to an end."Ethan?" she said and headed down the stairs immediately. Emily turned around and stood in her way."Aleth, go back to your room.""No, Mom,"

"But first, is Alethia okay?" Segun chuckled. "Of course, that's what you're more concerned about.""She's my friend.""And she created this mess.""No! She didn't," Olivia said and sat right, facing Segun. "She didn't ask for this, okay? Ethan should have handled this better."Ethan scoffed. "Excuse me, I'm here.""No," Segun defended. "Ethan here is the victim. Do you know how hard it is to navigate your feelings for two women?"Olivia laughed. "Who asked him to fall in love with two women? A mother and daughter at that. This wouldn't have happened if he had just stuck to the mother alone."Segun chuckled in disbelief. He drank from his coffee and cleared his throat. "How about the fact that Aleth was in love with him and wanted him for herself as well?"Olivia looked sharply at Ethan. He looked back at Segun and scoffed. "That was supposed to be a secret."Segun shrugged. "You left me with no choice.""Of course, I didn't," she said and reclined in the chair, then sighed in resigna
Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Fifty-three
If anything, the silence that held them in that frozen moment spoke what was more apparent--'stunned'. Alethia's impulsiveness has never been more heart-wrenching than when Emily looked at Ethan's face and saw that should she decide to press further on the allegation, he didn't seem like he was going to deny it. It was true after all--he was cheating on her. She breathed deeply and bit her lower lip. Emily reckoned that she'd have preferred that Ethan had cheated on her by sleeping with just a random woman to having fallen in love with someone else. She wouldn't have decided how they move further from there by his momentarily carnal desire, which she considered only biological for him to satisfy. But how does she move on knowing that Ethan has fallen out of love with her?She looked at his face again, this time looking for a hint of remorse, but rather she met a screaming guilt that made it impossible for him to raise his lashes and look outright at her. Ethan took in a huge gasp o
