“Are you ready to become fully mine?” Alex whispered in a low, seductive voice so close to my ears, and it made all my defenses crumble.
“Alex.” I pleaded in a voice that sounded nothing like mine, but it only seemed to turn him on.
I looked down just in time to see his cock jerk from his boxer, and it lit something within me. “I-I d-don’t think…” I stammered out, a complete mess of myself.
“You were saying?” He had the guts to smirk, and he dipped down to my neck, covering a section with his warm, wet mouth and sucking it.
“Ahh..” I moaned, wrapping my
My breasts were rising and falling, even as my nose flared in annoyance as I tried to catch my breath, and I looked at him, raising my eyebrows in question."Why. Did. You. Stop?” I managed to let out in between pants. My body has been set aflame by his touch, and it has awakened every cell in me, yet he had the guts to stop.No, that is not happening on my watch.“Stop?” A smile flickered on his face like a hologram before his lips curled upwards, revealing a smirk, and for a moment, it terrified me. “Now why would I do that? We are just getting started, baby.”“Oh.” My mouth opened
Alex made sure to show me who was in charge because all I could do was open up and scream his name. I was so turned on that I was dripping wet, so it was no problem trying to enter me.I turned my head to look at him, and for a moment, his pupil widened a fraction as his cock filled me with no resistance. But he was quick to recover as he continued sinking into the warm hole until he was fully lodged inside of me.We fit snugly, like we were made for each other, and a smile cut across my lips, but it was quick to disappear as he began to move. Nothing could describe how I felt in that moment; it was like I had been transported to the heavens.Pleasures coursed through every being of my body, and the
And I did leave it to him, not wanting to ruin the element of surprise. Instead, I got dressed as per his directive, wearing loose pants with a flower design and a crop top.We were on the beach, so I needed something more exposed; maybe I could even get tanned because I was already pale as a ghost.I watched as Alex made some calls trying to put things in place, and I swooned at the baby girl treatment I was getting because, honestly, I deserved it.“What are you looking at?” Alex asked me as he turned to notice that my eyes had been on him, watching him.“I was staring at you.” I told him honestly,
The picnic was beyond amazing, and we were there for a while, just eating and breathing in the cool sea breeze. By the time the sun had gone down, I had become pregnant with food and was unable to lift myself up.I was just content with sipping from my wine glass and watching the sky as the sun set. “What are you thinking about?” Alex's voice disrupted my thoughts, and I turned to look at him, a smile tugging on my lips. Is there ever a time this man doesn't look like a Greek god?Even with the dim light, he still managed to make it work, and I was in awe."Nothing; I was just looking at the beautiful horizon; this place is wonderful.”
It is funny how the time changes because one minute I was getting hot and heavy with Alex, we were kissing and grinding up against each other, as if the world would end if we dare leave each other, and the next we were on a plane bound for home.Another sigh left me with the thought, but there was nothing much I could do. The situation was beyond our control. I was just sad that my honeymoon was cut short.I had just spent a night there and was almost into the second night. What was most painful was that I had barely gotten to explore the island; I hadn’t even ticked off any items on my bucket list, and I knew there wouldn’t be any next time. But we had to go.One of his managers had called to inform him that one of his properties had caught fire, so we had to go home. Well, I will be going home; the jet will only make a stop in New York before it continues its way to Houston, where the fire happened.“Are you alright?” I shifted in my seat so I could get a better view of him. His hea
However fun it was and the thrill I got, being a keyboard warrior soon got tiring. After replying to a large number of hate comments and having to think of creative insults, I was drained and decided to call it quits.But it was fun while it lasted.I checked on the message I had sent Alex, and the delivery status showed delivered, but I had yet to get a reply from him.Against my rational thought, I decided to call him again, just to show that I care. If I had known, I shouldn’t have bothered anyway because he didn’t reply.It was safe to say that I gave up, although a part of me was still worried about him, and the fact that I hadn’t been able to communicate with him since yesterday only added to the worry.But I tried to push it back. He was fine; he just needs to settle some things, and he may not be near his phone. I tried to reassure myself.I was content binge-watching the latest TV series while I waited for his arrival.I waited, a day became two, and waited, two became three,
“Mind if I join you?” Alex asked, even though he was already entering the bathroom. He had removed the towel he had wrapped around his waist even before I could give him an answer.“Sure.” I replied, although there was no need as he was already inside. My eyes darted about the bathroom in a bid to avoid his eyes, but I could feel his gaze on me, barking holes into my skin, and I shivered.“Move over, so we can share.”“Okay.” I moved out of the shower and stood close to the wall of the bathroom, suddenly interested in scrubbing my skin, ignoring the other occupant of the bathroom.I didn’t know when Alex pressed a button and the water sprayed on me like raindrops. “Ouu.” I shrieked in excitement as the hot drops landed on my body. “I never knew it could do this.”“Oh, it could do a lot more than this. It could make you hot; it can also make you cold and clean you from the inside out.”I stared at Alex, giving him side eyes. “Are we still talking about the damn shower head?“I don’t kn
We laid on the bed, my head to his chest, stroking the scanty hair in his midsection. Thank fuck, he wasn’t the hairy type.I disliked guys who had a lot of body hair. I mean, they always bitched about females having smooth and hairless bodies; at least it should apply to them at some point.“Ahhh.” A sigh of relief left me as Alex ran his hands in my hair, stroking it. We were lounging on the bed, trying to catch our breath, and too tired to do anything. Alex had fucked the strength in me, and my limbs were like jelly.“Yea. I just remembered something.” I said, angling my head so I could see him better. “Why were you ignoring my calls throughout the times you were away? You didn’t even bother to return my text or even try to call me. Honestly, I was really mad at you and promised to give you the silence treatment.”“I am sorry, love.” Alex whispered in my hair, and I heard a kissing sound as he kissed the middle of my head. “I had no access to my phone for about a day after I landed
Honestly, this wasn’t how I imagined the book to end. I still had a lot of ideas, but as I gave it some thought, I knew that I was dragging the plot unnecessarily, and I think Alex and Ruby deserve their happy ending after all they had been through, even though it may not be what you wished for.I have learned that sometimes less is more, and that is what I am looking for in this book.Their future is left for you readers to decide, so be creative and leave a message on how you think they should have ended, and I would be happy to contribute and add my own theory.I want to thank everyone that has been reading the book even up to this point; you are the reason I kept this going.Your comments and gems were really appreciated.I do have a tiny favor for you. If you enjoyed reading this book or have read it to this point, you could click on the three lines at the bottom left of the screen, click on book details, and leave a rating for the book.You can also look forward to my future pro
I stood on my tiptoes, and my hands flew up to circle his neck, even as I connected my lips to his. Alex was frozen in place, not expecting my reaction, but the man was quick to recover.I heard a low growl from his belly, and he held my neck, pulling me closer to him. His lips were firm as they pressed against me, the complete opposite of the gentle butterflies that were fluttering in my stomach.Alex pulled back for a split second, his warm breath fanning my skin and sending delicious tingles down my body. He was looking at me with stormy eyes, and I could see nothing but love in his gaze.“Before we go forward, I need your verbal response. I don’t want to have any casual relationships anymore. I am tired of chasing the clouds, and I want something authentic with you. If you are saying yes, that means you are all in.” His eyebrow creased with serious intent as he spoke.I gave it a little thought, even though I already knew what my reply would be. In all honesty, I was tired of this
I looked at my phone, squinting at the mail I had just received, just to be sure that it was actually from Alex.Why couldn’t he tell me if they had accepted or rejected our offer in the mail? Did he have to see me face-to-face so he could gloat at my dejected face?He didn’t even give a specific date, so he had expected me to be omniscient and know when I should come. I looked up at the top left-hand corner of my phone, where the time was reading some minutes before one.A flitting thought crossed my mind about how it was so close to time. It took me some seconds to process the information before I was jumping to my feet.He obviously meant today, and if he did, I needed to be extra fast to make it on time. Thank goodness for the little things. I had already taken my bath, so it was going to make things easier.I padded my wardrobe, which was only seen to be overflowing no matter how much I debunk and declutter. I think I was going to have another yard sale so I could create more spa
“Hmm.” Alex’s lips were in a thin line as he looked at me. He finally allowed our eyes to meet, and I wasn’t sure I liked what I was seeing there.They were unreadable and barely giving anything out, and honestly, I didn’t know how to feel about that. But I could feel the huge divide between us, and I had no idea how I was going to mend it.“Alex? I asked a question.” I reminded him when I got no response again.“Yeah, I heard you the first time; I was just wondering why you decided to come to me.” He folded his arms, and I watched as his muscles bulged, giving him a menacing look. But I wasn’t fazed. “Why are you coming to me? What happened to all the numerous investors that gave you the contract? Are they suddenly backing out of the contract?”I whined with each sentence, each sentence delivering a lash on my back, and I shifted in my seat uncomfortably. Alex sure had a way with words, and he knew how best to make it hurt.“I came to you for a reason, Alex.” I said while I practiced
“Hey, I need your help.” I said into the speaker, and I waited, unconsciously holding my breath, to hear his reply. A few seconds had passed, and I didn’t hear anything from him. I was sure he heard me, but I was going to repeat it again to clarify any doubt. “I need your help.”“Yes, I heard you for the first time. What do you need?” No matter how he tried, he couldn’t hide the hostility in his voice, and I was cringing as I heard it.I deserved it. I had hurt him beyond measure, yet I was the one on his phone, seeking his favor.“Uhm, it is a long story, but I think it is better if we meet in person.” I said, my heart pounding in my chest for no apparent reason.I heard the ruffling of pages and a small pause before he replied. “Alright, tomorrow should be fine with me by 6 p.m. I will send you the location.”“Alright, thank you.” He was disconnecting the call even before I even finished talking, and I looked at the blank screen for a moment, wondering where it had all gone wrong.I
“We need to talk.” I spoke into the speaker, and I didn’t care if he had heard me or not, but I disconnected the call and flung my phone on the bed—only carefully, of course.That particular phone had cost me a ton, and I didn’t think I had the strength to replace it just yet. Plus, all of my important information was there; I couldn’t afford to lose it because of a tantrum.I held my head in my hand, cradling it like I would a baby. I wanted to scream out my frustration, bang my head on the wall, or do something crazy.But I couldn’t find the strength to do so.I have never been one to resort to violence if I didn’t have my way. Okay? I was lying, I used to in the past, but I'm a changed person now, and I don’t do such things now.I sat on my bed, unmoving, while I waited for the person on the other end of the phone to come back home. All this time, I was numb, not allowing myself to feel anything, but my brain was still working on how to come up with a solution.I was snapping out o
Work began in earnest the next day, which means that we were going to be staying in New York for a great deal of time—well, only Jeremy and I.Charles and Anna had gone back to Seattle as they had a lot of things to do and couldn’t always be here for us.However, I understood how much of a sacrifice they had made to make us reach such levels, and I was never taking it for granted. That was why I was eager to make sure this project was a success.It had to beJeremy and I had rented an Airbnb that would accommodate us during our stay in New York. Nothing fancy though; it was a modest house with 3 bedrooms and well-furnished rooms, and it had all the essentials we needed.We had decided on a 3-bedroom in case we had visitors; they could always stay in the guest bedroom without having to inconvenience anyone. I flew back to Seattle during the weekend just to check on how things were going over there while Jeremy was holding out his end in New York.We had no ongoing project anymore in Se
I held my breath as I opened the door, but I realized too late that it wasn’t him. It wasn’t the one that I dreamed of every waking hour, the one that somehow found a way to occupy my thoughts even though I didn’t want him to.Anna was quick to notice the frown on my face, and frown lines were etched on her face. “Are we interrupting something?” She asked in a worrisome tone, and I was quick to shake my head, denying her claim.“No, of course not. It is fine; please come in.” I said, moving out of the door so she could enter inside. “I had just woken up not so long ago, and it wasn’t to good news.”“Yeah, about that.” She began entering the room and taking up the empty space on the sofa while her husband sat on the only chair that was in the room. “We heard, or rather saw, what happened, and we just wanted to check on you.”“Yeah, Jeremy was just telling me about it, but it is pretty much under control.” I said, shrugging my shoulders. There was no need to start remembering the hurtfu
“What have you done?” Jeremy yelled as he entered my room. I was taken aback by the outburst, and my eyebrows rose in question.“I don’t understand. What happened?” I asked, confusion written all over my face. I had just woken up from a sweet, albeit short, nap, and I was still trying to get my bearings.There was no way I would have done something between those times, except I had a Dopplerganger somewhere who was wreaking havoc when I was sleeping.Thinking of it, if I had a dopplerganger somewhere, I would want to meet with her; maybe we could exchange jobs or something.“Don’t try to play ignorant about this; your face is literally plastered all over the internet.” Jeremy barked, cutting into my thoughts.“Ohkayyy…” I dragged out the words as I was still trying to recall what bad I had done. “I mean, it should be a good thing, right? Some exposure means more opportunities.”Jeremy looked at me. His jaw was hanging low, like he couldn’t believe what I had just said, and I was even m
