Pain spreads across my face and underneath my eyes where she slapped me. I cradle my cheek with my palm shooting her the hardest devilish glare I could muster, my other hand curled into a fist at my side.Eunice leaned into me, pointing a sharp nail in my face “Your mother was a rat poor two-faced slut who stole her best friend’s boyfriend”“Liar” I shoved her out of my face. “Don’t touch my mother Katy, I’m fucking warning you” Monica yelled attacking me from the side. “Then tell her to stop fucking lying!” I pushed them away from me seething “You’re a liar, all you do is lie. And I know you’re lying because my mother would never be friends with someone shallow and devious like you!” I spat. It was her turn to laugh. “You don’t know anything you dumb bitch, David was mine first, I brought that-that” she shook her head. “They only came clean after I caught her fucking my boyfriend two months after I’d introduced them at a house party, said it was a mistake and they were in love, d

A wave of black hair hung over her forehead, and her pretty blue eyes smiled “It’s just you and me now Katy” I woke with a gasp, my heart pounded loudly between my ears, my chest so tight, the room so dark I could barely see a thing, I instructed my lungs to work.White lights dotted around the edges of my vision.Oh God.I think I’m going to be sick.I gasped as I drew in one shaky breath after the next my eyes clenched shut, fingers fisted around the pillow under my head. It took me a moment to realize where I was. For my mind to register it was warm sheets around my bare body and not cool rainy air. I could still hear squealing tires and a loud platter of heavy rain if I closed my eyes so I kept them wide open.Behind me, the bed moved, and something heavy, a familiar warmth draped over me—warm skin against my chilled back.“Katy?”I blinked, my throat too tight for words.Ian.He’s here.Oh, thank God he’s here.The white lights that began dotting my vision dimmed.His finger smoo

My eyes bulged. Had I really texted that? Yes... I had. I was... upset.I still am. Crap.I inhaled shakily some of the anger bleeding out of me. I shouldn’t hurl out words like that at him even if I am pissed and he wanted to consort with the enemy. I am sensible enough to admit that. I swallowed the knot in my throat, “I’m sorry, I wasn’t thinking, that was- was out of line” I stuttered suddenly swarmed with shame at my behavior.He stared at me, saying nothing. I clasped my fingers behind me, a jittery feeling, nerves building at the base of my spine. I tried to keep my voice as strong as when he’d first got here as I continued. “B-But it doesn’t change the fact I don’t want to see them, I never want to see them again, if you invite them over you’ll be seeing them a-alone” Ian crossed behind the desk, moving books and papers around, he pushed a drawer open and snapped it shut, then he nudged the table forward as though to test the strength, he nodded once as if to say it’l

"Hmm," I moaned, collapsing fully against the table, like butter on a hot pan. My breath deepening. The next time crack of his palm on my ass, my cheeks clenched. I inhaled deeply. “Mmm” And so he goes, Smack, smack, smack. And I realize through my foggy brain that each time my hips rose to meet his palm, heat thrums through my blood, and I begin to anticipate each strike. Rocking back to meet him palm up on my tippy toes. I could feel the sticky mess coating my inner thighs. He made a growly sound and smoothed a palm along my spine. “Count for me, one to spell out each word”“Hm?”Count what...? I'm trying to blink out of the fog around my eyes when the first smack of the ruler lands across my ass. “Oowh!""Count!" he barked.Fuck. "O-one!”The second one follows immediately right across my cheeks. I swore. “T-two!”Crap.He was not messing around. Instinct demanded I rub at the fire licking across my ass but his warning rang clear in my mind. “Please- fuck three” I hissed be

I had a long nap when I got home. Just fell right in bed and slept for hours. It’s late afternoon when I blinked my eyes open, the time on my phone blinking back at me. I was very much tempted to go back to sleep, what would he do? Spank me again?I couldn’t help my scoff at the thought even as I rolled out of bed and made my way to the bathroom.The absolute nerve of those two to even accept the invitation tonight after what they did speaks of their shitty behavior. They must know I’d rather eat nails than share a table with them, they were probably counting on it. The last think I want is for them to know how upset I am over it, that would just be another win for them. And like hell I’d let them get another one over me. So I stand in front of the mirror and start lining up products, if there’s one think I’ve learnt from Ian is the power of appearance.I might not want to be there, but I’ll be certain to be the hottest.Two hours later I tucked back a strand of hair, pinning it at t

I swiped my tongue over my teeth for a moment then nodded. “You two seem to be getting along quite okay, you know Katy has always been rather shy since young, I worried you two might not, you know...” Eunice trailed off once more rather suggestively and I had to bite my tongue. I already spoke once this night, that was more time more than I planned. His fingers hooked around the side of my chair, a creek sounds and I am moving. O shot him a look as he threw an arm over the back of my chair, our thighs nearly toughing now that the moved me closer to him and he smirked “Katy and I get along just fine, right Kitten?” I scoffed and turned in time to see Eunice, her smile a little wobbly which she hid behind her glass of wine. “How nice. This makes me truly happy. Isn’t that right dear?” “Yes.” My sister concurred. I glanced at Ian over my shoulder because he couldn’t possibly have believed that. Right? His smirk held “Thank you, I feel we’re already so close” I jerked back at that b

I seat in the dinning for long moments, not sure how long, but the bottle is empty y the time I abandoned it on the table and made my way to my room.The house, so quiet.I kicked off my heels and found my phone, it was low.“Music” I need music, loud music.My thoughts, my brain. My mind. I couldn’t.I looked through my tote for my airpods and I’m reminded I’d left them in his room last night.I stumbled there in the dimly lit room, through the adjourning door.Its… empty. I listen for a moment, not in the bathroom or closet either.Probably working. Or went out. He’d been going out a lot these nights.I find my airpods on the nightstand, it was fully charged and I connect, slipping them into my ears, the last song, chandelier by Sia is a welcome distraction from my overwhelming thoughts.I begin undressing next, tugging out the pins in my hair and I hopped in the shower, the water scalding hot. My back hit the tiles and I slid down, down until I’m sitting on my heels.And then giggl

On Friday night, I sit beside Hannah and Sam to cheer on the Hawks on their last game of the season. It was an easy win and everyone was in a great mood after so we headed out for celebratory drinks with some of Kyle’s teammates. Hannah and I study at her place for most of Saturday I get back home just in time for dinner with Ian's parent. It had been nice, nothing like the evening with Eunice and Monica.The two tell stories of their travels in different African countries. I was amazed by the places, and people they'd seen. May had texted me when they boarded their flight to Johannesburg this morning. They’ll be there for a week to attend an auction before boarding another flight to Egypt to complete the rest of their trip they had cut short with the news of our wedding. Those two were definitely having the time of their lives.I guess I could say I was too because Monica had only texted me once since then as opposed to the past week when she had been blowing up my phone. And ther
