Bound By Gratitude, Shackled By Lies. Just Right.
CHAPTER 28MAZIKEEN I wanted him to touch me,more than he was already doing. But for some reason, Jordan kept holding back.He broke the kiss and lowered his head to my throat.My eyes flew shut as pleasure danced across my spine like a delicious whisper.“Oh,Maze…” he whispered against my overheated skin,like a plea,a praise. He shifted and cupped my breast, kneading once before pinching an aching nipple between his fingers.“You're so sweet…breathtaking…”I moaned loud, shamelessly,as the throbbing between my thighs grew and that warm sleekness increased, trailing down my thighs.“Jordan…” I sighed and he immediately stalled when I placed a hand on his arm.“No…no,don't stop…” His lashes flickered,his eyes half closed—heavy with lust—as he watched me.He was so hot,so beautiful…my chest twisted.I swallowed,then slowly guided the hand on my chest,lower.“Please??”Jordan squeezed his eyes shut and let out a low moan as he shoved his hand into the waistband
Huling Na-update : 2025-03-03Bound By Gratitude, Shackled By Lies. Her True View
CHAPTER 29 JORDAN Maze was still curled up on her side when I emerged from the bathroom. And a soft smile spread over my face as my gaze lingered on her sleeping form for a moment, before I headed into the walk-in closet to get ready.I was still in awe of the events of the early morning,her willingness,her ecstasy…. I'd definitely be thinking about everything at the office…I don't even know how I managed to shave my face without any cuts as flashes of her face,her sounds,the feel of her warm,wet walls gripping me,kept recurring.I was knotting my tie when I walked out and stopped dead as I found the bed empty.Rushing towards the bathroom,I sighed with relief as I heard the tap turn on.Then I felt a bit stupid for my reaction,like where exactly would she go without proper clothing? The balcony?I leaned closer,and although I heard the sound of someone brushing their teeth,I still knocked.“Maze?”Silence.I slowly pushed the door open and nearly fell to my

CHAPTER 30JORDAN “Sir?”I paused typing as I looked up at my assistant–Francis–an eyebrow raised in silent question.“There's some w...”“Let him in.”He hesitated, then shook his head. “It's a lady,and she says she's your fiancée.”“Tell her I'm not in,” I gritted out through and he nodded before exiting.Two minutes later,I sighed with frustration as the noise of the ruckus from the hallway reached me.I stood up and walked out,just as Arya burst into the office, followed hotly by a flustered Francis.“Enough.”They both instantly stopped moving, and Arya burst into tears as her blue eyes flicked to mine.I motioned for Francis to leave and the other man wasted no time in doing so.“What do you want?”Arya sniffed,but my expression remained the same. I'd tried to love her,or like her…but no matter what I did, I'd never felt a single spark of attraction towards her,not even an atom of what I felt from the first day I saw Maze.“Why do you keep avoiding me?”I

CHAPTER 31JORDAN “Graylin texted me.”My hands trembled with rage as I sieved the flour into the bowl.“Yeah? What did he say?”Maze shrugged, wiping off the counter before turning to face me.“He said he's sorry for hurting me,and that he has broken things off with Savannah and wants me to come back to him.”I swallowed painfully. “He was at the office earlier,I beat him up.”I don't know what I was expecting,but Maze's grin threw me off guard. “Good.”I smirked,pride rushing through me.“Why do you still have those clothes on?”Her eyes twinkled with mischief. “What? you'd prefer me without any?”My cheeks burned,which was a first…no woman had ever flustered me before.“I meant,why aren't you wearing any of the clothes you got today? They did arrive, didn't they?”She nodded, moving towards me at the large marble top table in the middle of the kitchen.“Your clothes are much freer which... is exactly what I need for my back,and…I love the way they

CHAPTER 32MAZIKEEN. I stayed home the next day too, lounging comfortably on Jordan's expensively furnished balcony.The soft ,L-shaped cushion was fast becoming one of my many favourite things about his penthouse,with its tufted backrest and light brown colour.I stretched lazily, ignoring the dull pain spreading through my still sore back,as I reached forward and picked up the bowl of diced fruits from the chrome coffee table, inhaling deeply and letting the peace settle deeply within me.There was a nagging feeling that I'd forgotten to do something like I intended,but I couldn't quite figure it out until my phone rang.I'd meant to check the time.A smile stretched over my face as I picked up the phone and saw who it was.“Lin!”“Maze!” She shrieked in response, her excitement palpable. “We're here!”I let out a confused giggle as I dropped the fruit bowl and adjusted one flap of my—well Jordan's robe,as I stood up.“What do you mean?”I heard the d

CHAPTER 33.MAZIKEEN “I'm no psychologist,” Lin started, “but I can definitely say that there's absolutely nothing wrong with you for not thinking about your abuser.”I adjusted, “perhaps it's time for me to see a therapist.” “I agree,” Linda muttered,a coy smile spreading over her face. “Mr. Black can definitely afford it.”“I'm sure he can,you know,he even asked to change my whole wardrobe.”“And let me guess,you said no?”I frowned, “Why'd I say no?”Lin chuckled, her eyes glowing with mischief. “You know some girls would’ve been like…nO I Don’T neEd yOuR mOnEY,I'm A BiG giRL.”My confusion deepened but I couldn't help but laugh at her impression.“But why reject something you need though?”Lin shrugged. “Pride? Ego? plot development?”“I'll never do that,” I said honestly, shaking my head. “What kind of girls do that?” “The ones in my books and movies,” she deadpanned,then laughed again.“What are you two laughing about?” Paul suddenly asked as

CHAPTER 34 JORDAN “Are you alright?”Maze chuckled but it sounded nothing like her usual ones. “I'm fine..I’m just…nervous about meeting your sister, that's all.”I shot her a look, trying to keep my apprehension hidden.Had I done something wrong?Did she no longer want to stay with me? Did she miss that bloody bastard?I swallowed, slowing down as the taillight of the car in front flashed.She'd been a bit too quiet since after the day I brought Linda and the brother to see her.And although we still kissed and cuddled a lot,we never did anything else and I never initiated anything because I could sense her anxietyIt was in the way she looked at me whenever she thought I wasn't paying attention,the way she held me in her sleep,like she was afraid I'd suddenly disappear when she woke up.It was in the way she had a delayed reaction to everything I said or did.Something was definitely worrying her,and it automatically became a burden to me.“You sure it's

CHAPTER 35MAZIKEEN “Okay then.”Jordan's long fingers gripped mine, firmly as he led me towards the main entrance of the academy,his strides confident and purposeful.The urge to scrape my fingers down his back—was almost unbearable—holding his hand wasn't enough and the sight of the dark green knit sweater stretched across his muscled back, wasn't helping matters.God,he looked so good. His hair wonderfully tousled and styled,and he smelled sooo good,a warm,earthy citrusy smell that felt like a soothing caress.I felt the gold band of the ring on his index finger as he squeezed my fingers reassuringly and my gaze fell to the subtle stretch of his jeans,fitted perfectly around his waist.Perhaps I was a vain woman but I really, really liked how Jordan Black looked in his jeans…in all his clothes.‘You like how he looks without them too,’ a tiny voice whispered and I chewed on my bottom lip as images of that first night flashed through my mind,how he felt und

CHAPTER 42 MAZIKEEN “Maze Smith?”I nodded at the brown skinned woman, immediately captivated by her perfect smile and dentition.“I'm Dr.Woods ,but you can just call me Tania.”“Thank you,Dr…Tania,” I said as I shook the hand she offered before moving to sit opposite her.“I hope this doesn't come off as offensive but…” I paused, filtering my next words. “I was kinda expecting to see someone much older than you are…not that I think you're unqualified for your job because of your youthfulness but I…I…”“That's okay,” she cut in with a gentle smile,the full bun of dark coils behind her head, bobbing as she shook her head.“You don't have to explain, Miss Smith…I understand,I do get that a lot too.”“Oh,” I adjusted in my seat then sighed. “That's good then.”I watched as the pretty lady flipped her notepad open and scribbled something in it before raising her head and fixing me with a cool, attentive look.“Tell me your biggest fear,Maze.”“Oh…um…” all of a

CHAPTER 41JORDAN “Maze?”She looked up from the running tap,her eyes locking onto mine with an expression that wrenched at my heart.“I can handle anything but your silence…just..just talk to me?”Maze blinked then shook her head slightly as it to clear it.“Your hand…it looked like mine…from that night.” I watched her throat bob as she swallowed.Then she moved closer, raising the wet towel to my face and gently dabbing it at a cut I didn't even know was there.“I’m sorry.”Her brows furrowed and genuine confusion flashed in her honey coloured eyes.“Why'd you be sorry?”“I scared you…”Maze shook he head again,“I'm not scared,Jordan.”She pulled back and took my hand, dragging it under the sink and turning the tap on again.“I'm…surprised? Confused? Curious?” She held my hand under the running water with one hand,and with the other,she reached up and brushed my hair out of my eyes.“Your grew longer.”My jaw ached as I ground my teeth and nodded. “Yeah,

CHAPTER 40MAZIKEEN. “Stay here.” Jordan said as he quickly rounded the desk, hurrying towards the door.“I'm the one he's looking for,” I replied, climbing off the desk and pushing my dress down as I hurried after him.“Let me handle this.” I said after I caught his arm,and he spun around to face me.Jordan's brows furrowed,as he shook his head. “No…no,I won't let him get even an inch close to you aga… ”“Mazikeen,I'm sorry!!” Graylin yelled from outside and I could hear the buzz of other voices too.“Come out now and I won't expose your dirty secreeet,” Graylin sing-songed and I turned a pleading gaze to Jordan.“Please,let me just talk to him?”For seconds that felt like hours, Jordan stared into my eyes…searching–thinking.Then he nodded and pulled the door open.I hurried out of his office, feeling grateful that we’d already dressed up before Graylin's…whatever it is he was doing.“There she is…” Graylin cheered as I stepped out, lowering the gun from hi

CHAPTER 39JORDAN Linda's face lit up as Maze and I walked into the lobby. “Oh my gosh!Maze!!” she exclaimed as she rounded the marble desk, rushing towards us with her arms already open and stretched towards Maze.“I'm so glad you're back to work!” “I am glad to be back,” Maze replied as they hugged, “but then I won't be staying long…”Linda pulled back and examined Maze's face, “your first session's today, right?”“Yeah,” Maze replied. “Kinda nervous.”“Don't be…you look great,I'm sure you'll do great too.”Maze chuckled sweetly, “I don't see the correlation,but I love you.”Linda hugged her again,then pulled back just as fast and turned to me.“Good morning Mr. Black,” she said.“Morning Lin,” I murmured, suddenly distracted by the buzz of the phone in my hand-a call from Mathew.“Miss Smith,” I called and her eyes flitted to mine, knocking the breath out of me.“I'll be up soon,” she told me when I gestured to ‘up’ as I raised the phone to my

CHAPTER 38JORDAN I was never going to get tired of telling Maze how beautiful she was, infact…sometimes I felt like it wasn't enough to just tell her…there had to be a better way to show her.And as she moved to sit on the marble top table,I had to fight to keep my control and not scare her with the intensity of my need.I would never be able to let go the way I could,but that was okay,any part of her she choose to give me was enough.“Pull your legs up,” I said,my voice sounding more like a croak.And then she did that.“Maze…” I groaned as I felt pre-cum bead up at the head of my shaft and my knees wobbled as she moved her thong aside so I was staring at the glistening slit of her pussy.I couldn't hold back anymore,my movements jerky and rough as I pulled off my shirt and moved between her parted legs,my mouth descending on hers with an urgency bothering on desperation.My hands snapped around her waist, holding her in place as our tongues tangled,then m

CHAPTER 37MAZIKEEN “No,not yet.” Jordan answered softly, “but I know he will,we just need to give him time.”I swallowed, glancing down at my almost empty plate and feeling grateful that I'd at least eaten enough before my sudden appetite loss.“You're right,Maze.”I picked up the glass of water and raised it to her mouth, “right about what?”“There's something special about you.”I side eyed him as I drained the glass--and he looked like he was on the edge of a chuckling fit.“Why're you trying to be sweet in the middle of an important conversation?”“I'm not…” he pressed his lips together and exhaled through his nose. “I'm talking about what you told me the other day, about…feeling like you have some sort of energy…inside of you.”“Ohhh,” I nodded. “See how fast the wounds healed? Barely a full week.” I didn't mind scars but I was glad all the injuries had healed with very minimal ones.Jordan nodded,then tilted his head to the side as he studied me silently.
Bound By Gratitude, Shackled By Lies. The Miscommunication Thing
CHAPTER 36JORDAN Maze's quietness bothered me more than any tantrum or vehemence could have.The way she calmly focused on the ceremony until it was all over,but still sparing Anna a genuine smile when she ran over to use with her yellow belt.“No,I'll call a ride.” Was her response when I mentioned driving Anna to my mom's before taking us home,but at least she’d gone back to the penthouse... I'd half expected her to announce that she wasn't going to stay with me anymore.I exhaled deeply as I pulled out the day old cooked rice from the fridge and moved back to the kitchen.It'd been about three hours since I returned and although I could hear Maze moving around the room up the short flight of stairs–could practically smell the lavender musk of her scent—I left her alone.After two hours of work in my study,I'd decided to make some food.I paused mid-pouring the oil into the pan, “Damn,I should've talked to her earlier.”She'd probably think I was being
