ETHANThe year of desperation could be heard clearly in her voice and that made me disgusted. I knew I made a mistake coming for Ravenna but, why can't she leave?Why on earth has she sworn to be tied to me forever?“Like I said, nothing like feelings, like emotions or relationships or marriage. I am on a break,” I reminded her.“You are a clown. You know the truth deep down and you want to get rid of me. I won't let that happen. We are already in this together and we will continue in this. I do not care.”When they said that you should never allow a woman to take control or have an upper hand, they were right. It was how I clearly saw everything playing out.I didn't know when Ravenna moved closer to me and I scowled as she took my finger and pushed it deep into her mouth. “Fucking hell. What are you doing? Are you out of your mind or have you lost it?” I asked, pushing her away from me. “Allow me to express myself. I have a lot that I can do to you to spice up our sex life in this
The tension in the environment tightened at the base of my spine. Fuck, if I do not do this with her right now. I may lose it.“I know what you want, Ravenna. But, it's crazy to do that here.”She jerked her chin and tilted her head at her remark and asked, “What do you mean?""You don't have to pretend. You want to do this, it's alright because I am your husband and I am meant to perform my marital duties.”Ravenna laughed at my statement before boring her eyes into mine. “I see. I know you want to do this tio but your conscience doesn't permit you. Well, blame it on me. Say that I, your wife, forced you into doing this. You can use me as your excuse to get whatever you want. For now, I think we would need a room where there is only me and you. Mine you, it's been long since I had an orgasm and this orgasm is begging for a release. If I were you, I would allow myself to enjoy my husband.”“Hmmm…”So many words ran out of her mouth at the same time. I knew she wanted me. I was cool
ETHANThat was the last time that I spoke to Ravenna since she offered to help me.She disconnected from me and decided that she was not going to call or text me. I didn't know how she wanted me to reach her.I had to forget about all of these and face my life. That was what I told myself but, it was not actually so. I wish it was.Hours have gone past and I still find myself thinking about Reina and her child. That lady must have a lot of skeletons in her cupboard for her to be able to do such a thing like this. “Damn it! Fucking damn it. I should forget about her. She is not worth it,” I said to myself countless times but that was just me ranting out.I knew that I could not control how I felt about her. I really have to stop the way she crosses my mind at every interval.I was getting tired of all this and I needed a break. The search history on my laptop was all about how to get to know if a child is yours without the use of DNA.“I think I should just calm her and tell her that
ETHAN“We know. We know. We do know her. I mean she is now a celebrity. I have been meaning to ask you how you were able to convince her to work with you on your project,” Evans asked and I smiled.If there was anything that I was proud of, it would be the Triple A project. I would keep talking about it everytime and every day that Reina did magic with my project.I was really grateful. Apart from the sexual desire and the romantic urge. Another reason why I needed her by my side was because of my company. She was a very good and creative person who did a very good job and made sure it produced the desired result. Apart from that, she was very attractive and hardworking. She would attract a lot of people to the company. Unlike Ravenna. I was the one who forced her to put in the work and make a good thing for herself. She annoys the hell out of me but I don't have a choice. I had already promised her that I would employ her in my company and pay her every month irrespective of the w
REINAThat night, for the first time since whenever. I think longer than I could remember, I dreamt .And when I say I dreamt, it was not that kind of dream you jokingly tell your parents or your friends. In this dream, I was lying in bed, and a heavy weight was pinning me down with my leg wide open.Trust me, I remember everything that I dreamt in my dream. It's crazy. Let's continue.In this dream,my body was alive with sensation. I was feeling so many emotions burning inside me. On top of me was a burning-hot skin that pressed greatly against mine. As if that was not enough, there were strong hands holding my waist down. I shivered and twisted like a worm as those warm and soft lips moved up to my neck .You may be smiling while listening to my story. That was the same way I felt when those lips licked me up. I know what must be running through your mind is that. Were you not scared? Why did you allow such a thing to happen in a dream? I know, Baby. I should have been scared,
REINAHis black, holey hoodie was soaked through on the shoulders, and his sneakers squeaked with water. He carried a black backpack in one hand. His hood was up, his face shadowed. That dark oval turned toward me as I stood in the doorway, feeling like a kid in my oversized robe.It was Bruce, so I do not mind the way I looked . If it was someone else, I would be so shy about everything that was happening.“Now, tell me. What's the matter?” I asked him.“But, first. You seriously need to change these clothes that you are putting on. You know that, right?” I asked him and he nodded.“I am going to be here because of your child. Have you seen the news recently?” He asked and I shook my head.“News? What are you talking about?” I asked, looking lost. “Seriously? What have you been doing all day? Is it that you are not up to date with the latest happenings?” he asked, looking disappointed in me but whatever happened was not particularly my fault. His snapped reply made me even more c
BRUCE“Damn!” I whispered to myself. She proved me wrong. She was wearing panties. I contemplated pulling them off. The panties were not meant to be there. They have to go.I was already picturing her naked as she was there but I was not going to be in a hurry to pull that off. I needed her to remain that way for now.I want to make her mine. I don't want to force things. Everything is meant to come naturally. I don't know if she has seen the signs.She was all I could think off Everytime. But, her silly head has now become obsessed with Ethan. I guess now she has started to the him because o that article.That is a chance for me to have her to myself and show her all the love that she deserved. I grabbed the band of the panties and I worked them down her body, breathing in deep when I reveal her sweet and juicy pussy. I wanted to bury my face in them, lapping at her slit, swallowing her juice, licking them while she shake vehemently..I slipped my hand between her thighs, pushing
REINA“Your wife?” That was something sudden. He quickly pulled out of me as I didn't regret anything that happened whatsoever between us.This was not the first time we were doing it together. Besides, I began to develop a sudden hatred for Ethan and I know that wherever he is, he would have been having sex with different girls, forgetting that he swore to love me.I shook my head with so much Vigor as if the thoughts that were jammed in my head would fly out.I was having a sweet time here with Bruce before the thought of Ethan came. Why does he always have to spoil my thought process? I sat up right and moved away from Bruce for some time. I actually needed some time to talk about this. “Yes, wife,” he answered.“I really do not know. I am sorry. You know my life the same way I know mine. You should also know that this may not work between us,” I said.“I understand your fairs and I care. What I am planning to do is for us to do a fake wedding. Let the public talk more about us.
EthanI stood by the window in my hotel room, staring at the city lights shining brightly against the night sky.The streets below were alive with honking cars and I could hear laughter, and the distant thrum of music right here in my room. Yet inside this room, the silence I felt indifferent. I felt something that I could not quite shake off. The events of the last two days replayed in my mind like a broken record. The redhead, the alcohol, the shame. And Carl, my so-called friend who had managed to vanish when I needed him most.I clenched my fists, anger bubbling under the surface. “You are an idiot, Ethan,” I muttered to myself. “An absolute idiot.”My phone buzzed on the bedside table, snapping me out of my thoughts. I reached for it, half-expecting Reina’s name to light up the screen. But it wasn’t her.It was Carl. “Come on dude. Let me be.”I hated the way I was dwelling on all of these. I had work to do and I haven't been able to do anything yet. For a moment, I conside
ReinaThe dinner with Leonard didn't go as expected. As usual, he was cutting through corners. If he knew that I had submitted his name to the cops, maybe he would have given me more information. I was left to rack my brain over this. This was something that was meant to be the detectives work but I have not gotten any report from them. I wanted to call them to ask if they are making any progress but I guess I should just wait for some time. I sat at my desk, staring at my computer screen. The article I had been reading earlier blurred before my eyes. Leonard's words from the night before were still looping in my head. How would I get him to tell me all I need to know?Ethan was in Japan and some unknown people see plotting to kill him. Getting anything from Leonard seemed impossible especially when I knew that he was more interested in my body. But, I can't give in him or anyone. I was w married woman and I had a child. "They see Ethan as a threat,” I repeated as I thought alou
EthanThe cold shower did little to wash away the guilt clinging to my skin. I stood there, water pouring over me, hoping the icy sting would calm the storm in my chest. But it didn’t.I was haunted by memories and all I could see and hear and feel were The redhead’s laughter, her touch, the softness of her lips. it all kept on haunting leaving a relentless echo in my mind.“You are a fool, Ethan,” I muttered, slamming my fist against the tiled wall. “A bloody fool. How could you do such a thing?”I turned off the shower and stepped out, grabbing a towel. My reflection in the fogged-up mirror stared back at me. I looked like a total stranger. A stranger with bloodshot eyes and a fucked up face. This was not me. This was not the man I promised Reina I would be.Reina. My sweet wife. Her face swam before my eyes and I could still see her bright smile, the way her eyes sparkled when she laughed. What would she think of me now? Would she even look at me the same way if she knew what
ReinaThe clock on my desk kept ticking loudly and I wondered if it was because I was paying attention to even the little things that I was able to hear it. On a normal day, I would care less about a clock. The sound of the clock was made louder by the silence that engulfed the house. At first, I was sketching a few designs that I was going to put up for sale in the online market but my attention became divided when I remembered that there was something I had to do quickly. tapped my pen against the edge of my notebook, staring at the half-written page in front of me. Research on Leonard had consumed my thoughts for the past two days, but the deeper I dug, the murkier things became.Something about him didn’t sit right with me.I sighed, pushing the notebook aside and reaching for my phone. My messages with Ethan stared back at me, our recent exchange still fresh.“Hey. Busy morning. I will call you tonight. Miss you.”His words these days had been reassuring, but something felt of
EthanI woke up to the sound of a door closing softly, followed by the faint click of heels on the floor. My head throbbed, pounding restlessly that made even the dim morning light coming through the curtains feel unbearable. Letting out a soft groan I tried to sit up, but the heaviness in my limbs kept me pinned to the bed.And then it hit me. I was naked. In her. By this time. I blinked, looking down to see the rumpled sheets tangled around my naked body. My stomach twisted as I began to remember what happened last night. The memories kept flooding back and I could not move. Her red hair glowed under the blue lights. Her laughter. Her hands. Her lips.Oh, my God! What have I done?The door clicked shut, and I turned just in time to catch a glimpse of her fiery hair as she disappeared down the hallway. She didn’t say goodbye. She didn’t even look back.I sat up quickly, clutching the sheets as if they could shield and protect me from the shame threatening to consume me. My cl
EthanThe music made me feel alive and I had my head moving to every beat and insistent rhythm that I was hearing. My glass was empty again, though I could not remember finishing my drink. The red-haired woman that I saw at the club leaned against the bar beside me with her eyes sparkling in the flashing lights.I don't know why she looked at it like she was plotting something.“I'm sorry but I don't think I'm comfortable with you,” I said plainly to her. That was the truth. I was becoming so uncomfortable and my friend who brought me here was long gone. What have I gotten myself into? I asked myself but I had no answer to the question.I shrugged and decided to go with the floor, perhaps she would let me be after some time. That's the way some ladies are. I guess. “I think you are fun, young man,” she said and her voice was so soft and smooth as she teased me. She then signaled the bartender for another round of drinks for the both of us and I could not decline. The drink was
ReinaThe air still felt heavy, even in the quiet of my bedroom. The phone call with Ethan had ended hours ago and it didn't end well. I could still hear his voice echoing in my mind.I had been too harsh with him even as we were this distant. There was this exhaustion and frustration in his tone that he did not try to hide. I had pushed it all aside because of my own emotions.But now, in the silence of the night, guilt crept in on me. I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at my phone. Should I call him back? Apologize? And explain to him that I had nothing to do with Leonard. Maybe he just needed reassurance. Oh, why did I talk so rudely to him. Leonard’s name alone made my skin crawl. What he had said that time still rang in my head.“You think this is just about me flirting with you?” he had asked, leaning in too close. “It’s bigger than that. Someone sent me to you. Someone who wants to ruin Ethan. And you are the key. So, I have to get it first.”I knew that this was a very
EthanThe room was dimly lit and the heavy curtains blocked out the harsh sun that dared remind me of how far I had fallen. I was lying straight on the hotel bed, staring at the ceiling with an empty whiskey glass on the nightstand.My phone buzzed, breaking through the thick haze of self-pity that had settled over me.I was tired of living. I was feeling depressed and I didn't know how to handle myself. I ignored it at first, letting it vibrate into the mattress. Probably just work. Another email about something I could not bring myself to care about right now. But the buzzing of my phone didn’t stop. Reluctantly, I reached over and grabbed the phone, squinting at the screen.It was Carl.The name flashed brightly and I remembered the man I had met a few days after arriving in this foreign city. Carl did good to me. He was everything I was not at the moment. He was charismatic, carefree, and far too persuasive for his own good.With a groan, I swiped to answer. “What do you want
Ethan I was at the other airport where I will take a plane straight to Japan. The airport was still so loud and bustling, but I felt completely disconnected from it. People hurried past me and they all looked like they had no worries in their life. My life felt like it was stuck in an impossible loop. I sat with my suitcase at my feet, staring at the boarding pass in my hand. My flight straight to Japan was in an hour. Everything I had worked for was finally coming together, yet it still felt wrong. I picked up my phone, scrolling through the messages Reina and I had exchanged. There was nothing special about it. They were very brief, distant, and polite. Nothing like what we used to be. I stared at the screen, debating whether to text her again. I had said I would call, but I could not. Not yet. I didn’t have the words to fix this. Was I really leaving my family behind? It all felt like a dream but it was a decision I had made. My thoughts were interrupted by the
