Dahlia Carrington

~•~

I didn’t see Damon after our encounter in his office, where he had told me to wait for four years for him. I knew it was going to be extremely hard and I didn’t know what I would do if he found someone else along the line but I was going to give it a shot. It was my fault for falling for a man ten years older than me, who happened to be my professor.

However, not seeing him wasn’t part of the plan. On the day of his exam, he didn’t even come to supervise it nor was he in his office when I went to check. The office had been empty when I went to check, as though no one occupied it anymore.

It worried me and I was tempted to go to his place and look for him, but I decided not to. I had promised him I would wait for him. Going to his home would only ruin that.

“Are you sure you don’t want us to see you off?” I asked Prisha. Our holiday only lasted three weeks, but she was going back to India to spend it with her family. Clementine lived in the city so she had gone a

    Dahlia Carrington~•~As expected, I spent Christmas alone.It was boring and depressing as I spent the whole day watching Christmas movies one after the other. It was the first time I wasn’t receiving expensive presents. It was the first time I wasn’t receiving presents. Period.At the end of the day, I stared at my phone, wondering if I should call him or not. I didn’t know if we were meant to stay away from each other for the four years we wouldn’t be together. I didn’t believe in the distance making the heart grow fonder. It was all bullshit as it was only irritating me.Throwing caution to the wind, I tapped on his number, crossing my fingers when it started to ring.The call rang out.I bit down on my bottom lip and tried again, but it had the same result. I hissed in annoyance. Why was he ignoring my calls now? How was I supposed to stay in love with him if he ignored me like this? Annoyed, I called one last time, telling myself I’d never call him again if he didn’t pick up th

  • Collared by Professor Valentino   72. Back home

    Dahlia Carrington ~•~[Damon: how did it go with your parents?]I was back in my old room and it looked the same way I left it. There was a mascara and a lipgloss on top of my dressing table. I had a few books that I’d been reading to pass time on my table and a magazine was on my nightstand.The room didn’t have a speck of dust though, which meant they had continued to clean it regularly without touching anything else.I opened the camera app and took a quick selfie, sending it to Damon.[Me: this is what my childhood room looks like.]His reply came almost immediately. [Damon: you’re in California?][me: yep][Damon: Happy holidays then]I frowned at the response. It seemed like he was dismissing me. [me: are you busy? Can I call you now][Damon: another time]His replies were short and precise and it rubbed me the wrong way. I hated this. I hated feeling like I was begging him for his attention but I was bored and I never had any substantial to do at home.Then again, it was mid

    Damon Valentino~•~I was quite worried when Dahlia told me she was back home. From what I knew, her parents didn’t want her to go to school and I didn’t know if they would let her come back or not.I was done tying all the loose ends at my job and I landed another job at a private university. I’d gotten it a week after applying because luckily for me, they were looking for a new Philosophy lecturer after the last one quit. It was like the offer was dropped in my lap.My holiday was quite boring because of my strained relationship with Dahlia. I spent every waking moment thinking about the girl. It was now two days to the new year and I was certain I had sorted everything out.My parents were skeptical about me switching schools and I told them the truth; the woman I loved happened to be my student and I didn’t want us to cross as professor and student again so I had to quit. My brothers applauded me for the bold move while Juan just called me a simp.I didn’t mind.Laying in my child

  • Collared by Professor Valentino   74. I quit

    Dahlia Carrington~•~I didn’t know if I had done something wrong again. Damon had told me to wait until I was done with my degree before we could be together. Didn’t that mean that we weren’t currently together?I was worried. Was he mad at me again? He hadn’t replied to my texts after our call and it had been seven hours. He couldn’t be busy for seven consecutive hours, could he?I was halfway through a book when I heard the doorbell ring around the house. I frowned. My parents didn’t say they were expecting guests. Whenever they had a visitor, they always told me beforehand and warned me to behave.Ignoring it, I went back to my book. I was only going to stay in my room and wait out the visitor. About an hour after the doorbell rang, I heard a knock on my door.Begrudgingly, I got out of bed and trudged to the door, opening halfheartedly. However, when I saw who had been knocking, my jaw dropped.“What the…” the words trailed off and I rubbed my eyes to check if I was seeing clearl

    Dahlia Carrington~•~“Don’t look so shocked.” Damon laughed. “It was bound to happen anyway.”“I don’t want you to quit because of me.”He snorted. “Who said I quit because of you? I quit because I’m a selfish bastard who can’t keep his hands off of you.” He said, wrapping his hands around my waist and pulling me closer to him.I looked up at him. “What are you going to do now?”I felt bad. Even if he did it for himself, it was because I was in the picture. He was sacrificing his job to be with me. “I’m not jobless. I already have a new job.”“Are you fucking serious?”Another chuckle escaped his lips. “You have such a dirty mouth.”I grinned. “Why don’t you make me do better?”He spanked my ass and I let out a yelp, not expecting it. “I have a job at a private university that has been in existence for like five years. They needed a professor and I happened to be one.” He told me as one of his hands traveled to my front, brushing my nipples against the tight material of my top. The b

    Dahlia Carrington~•~I didn’t want to leave the hotel. I finally had Damon all to myself and I wanted to lay there with him all day but we had promised my father we would show up at the party.“The party starts at nine, does it not?” Damon asked. It was still evening so we had like five hours before it started, but we had to get ready and we had nothing to wear in this hotel room. I’d been naked all day.“Why don’t we just ditch the party and stay here?” I groaned.“I made a promise to your father and I have to fulfill it if I want to take you with me back to New York.”I rolled my eyes. I didn’t care about promises with my father. He was a selfish man who only cared about himself. Before I could speak, the doorbell rang.“Room service,” Damon informed me as he covered himself with the robe and walked to the door. We had only eaten breakfast today, forgetting to eat lunch as we were too busy catching up with each other. Damon came back with a trolley. The hotel wasn’t very huge but t

    Dahlia Carrington~•~The rest of the holiday went smoothly.Damon promised my father he was going to link him up with his brothers and my father didn’t care if I slept at home or with Damon in his hotel. I spent half of the week in the hotel with him and the other half was spent out with him. I was barely home but I managed to sleep in the house three nights out of the seven nights left. I didn’t want my parents to think I was obsessed with the man.When the time came for me to go back to school, my parents had completely opened up to the idea. As long as I was with Damon and Damon had connections that could bring them multimillion-dollar deals, they didn’t care.I was busy packing for school when my father came into my room. For a second, I wondered if he had changed his mind and wanted me to stay at home, but then he said, “You created a new bank account when you left, right? Send me your bank information.”I nodded. I was all about making my own money but no way in hell was I goin

    Dahlia Carrington~•~“I haven’t seen this car here before,” Damon commented as we got out of the taxi we’d taken from the airport. He went around to the back of the car and retrieved my suitcases from the trunk before paying the driver.“My father bought it for me,” I told him.“I thought you weren’t on good terms with your parents?”I shrugged. “They suddenly love me because I’m dating you.” I’d accepted the fact that I was never going to be enough for my parents if I stayed single. They had grown up the the mindset that a woman’s value was attached to her partner and there was nothing I could do to eradicate it from them. It would have been a battle if I had fallen in love with a man who wasn’t wealthy and had no connections. They would have been strongly against it and I wouldn’t even be surprised.“Well, they love you now so I guess it’s a win-win situation for you.”I let out a short breathy laugh. “You could say that.”I knew nothing about cars except how to drive them, but the

    Dahlia Carrington ~•~It turned out that the slutty set he had gotten for me wasn’t the main deal. It consisted of a pair of bra and panties as well as a top that ended just below my breasts and a mini skirt that had half of my ass out so that the panties were peaking out. They were all in pink and it made me feel like one of the Barbies; like a true doll.I was tempted to just take it off and tell Damon I wasn’t interested because I knew the implications of such clothing and I was still shy at heart but I waved it off. I owed him for that night and it was his birthday.Blowing out a breath, I stepped out of the room and went into the living room to stand in front of Damon. His face swept across my body appreciatively. “Turn around.” He breathed out and with my cheeks matching the color of the shirt I was wearing, I did a slow spin, allowing him time to take in all of me. “Perfection.”Damon always gave me more credit than I deserved.“Now what?” He smiled and turned on his phone.

    Dahlia Carrington~•~“You’ve been holding out on me a lot,” Anya said as she climbed into my car. “When the hell did you get such a sweet ride?”I chuckled as I started driving. “My father got it for me.”“And when the hell did you get in touch with your father for him to buy you a car?”I smiled sheepishly at her and at her order, I explained everything that had been going on in my life. She oohed and aahed unnecessarily but I didn’t expect anything less from a person as dramatic as Anya.By the time I was done with my story, we were already at the mall. Damon’s birthday was in a few days. He hadn’t told me about it but I heard Juan talking about it one day when he came to visit and I was going to get him a present.“All these were happening and you didn’t even think to call me?” Anya sounded offended.“I didn’t want to bother you with my problems.”“You can bother me anytime, Dahlia. We’re friends for a reason. Secondly, where the hell can I find that Prisha girl? Is she still livi

    Dahlia Carrington ~•~By the time I finished eating the spaghetti Damon made, I was exhausted. The stress from the day finally came crashing down as soon as I set my dishes in the sink.Regardless, I took hold of the sponge but before I could attempt to wash it, Damon plucked it from my hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll do the dishes.”“But you cooked,” I argued weekly.“They won’t take more than ten minutes, doll. Just sit there and wait for me.”I nodded and sat down on one of the stools. As he did the dishes, my mind strayed to the conversation I had with Prisha today. She accepted that she did all those things because of her feelings for Roman. Did Roman know about the things she did? If he did, would he like her for it?I knew they said love made people stupid but she crossed the line because of some unrequited love. It wasn’t my fault that Roman found me attractive. It wasn’t my fault that he had some sick affection for me and not her. Two of them were crazy. They deserved to be togethe

    Damon Valentino~•~For a moment, Dahlia just stared at me as though she could comprehend what I was saying but I merely stared at her pointedly, waiting for her to take her call.“Are you going to keep staring at me?” I asked her and she blushed before answering the call.“Aurelie.” She said in greeting and I pulled her closer to the edge of the bed so that her ass was hanging off it. She shrieked at the sudden movement but she kept her cool as she said. “Clementine told you what happened, didn’t she? Don’t worry, I wasn’t touched. I just tried to separate the fight between them and—“Her words were suddenly cut shut when I attached my mouth to her throbbing clit. I looked up at her through my lashes and saw that she was looking down at me with her mouth open. “Go on.” I urged, knowing how she reacted whenever I spoke against her pussy.Dahlia shuddered, but Aurelie must have called her attention on the line because she focused back on the call. “I didn’t move for her. I mean I don’t

    Dahlia Carrington~•~ When I was packing my stuff in fury and stomping out of the house, I never thought about where I’d go.I found myself in the private elevator that led to Damon’s penthouse. A suitcase was in my hand and I had a duffel flung on one shoulder with a backpack flung around the other. When the doors to the elevator opened in his house, I stepped out, only to see him already in the living room.As though he had been waiting for me, he stood up at my arrival. “Why didn’t you call me to come pick…” his words trailed off when he saw the things I’d come with. He cocked his head to the side. “What are these?”“Uh, my things?” I asked sheepishly.“I can see that, Dahlia. The question is what they’re doing here.”My lips formed an automatic pout. “You said the offer was there whenever I wanted it.”“Have you come to live with me, Dahlia?” I nodded slowly and a slow grin spread across his face. “You should have enjoyed your freedom a bit more. Do you know that we’ll live toget

    Dahlia Carrington~•~I turned around to see that the newcomer was none other than Clementine. “Prisha started those rumors?” She asked me and I nodded. I’d wanted to keep it quiet so things wouldn’t get awkward, but Prisha wasn’t remorseful and I wasn’t going to stay quiet for her sake.“Why are you guys acting like I did something wrong?” She yelled which startled me and made me jump away from her. “You were fucking your professor, were you not? You were so lost in your little world that you even did things like that in the classroom like a cheap slut. I know Roman had evidence but you found a way to get rid of it. That must have been what you were crying about that night, right?”I knew I had said this a million times at this point but I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know she hated me this much. How had I lived with her for months when she secretly hated me? I cried in their presence and I wondered what was going through her head whenever she consoled me, if she ever did that is.“

    Dahlia Carrington~•~I wasn’t stupid enough to keep this from Damon this time. The last time I did that, it resulted in us almost breaking up. It didn’t matter that we broke up after the issue was resolved. The point was that he was also in the picture and he deserved to know.My leg bounced on the ground impatiently. Any moment from now, Rowan’s brother would call us and tell us what he found out about the post and I was scared to find out the truth.Damon placed his hand on my knee to stop the bouncing, drawing my attention to him. “Don’t worry, we’ll find out who did this.”“I know,” I responded. “That is what scares me.”The truth didn’t care about how I felt because, in the next second, Damon’s phone rang. He answered the call and placed it on speaker. “My secretary said the IP address was traced to her house.” My breathing hitched at the revelation, confirming what I feared. “It was posted on an iPhone X.”I closed my eyes and sank my head on the couch. Only two people used an

    Dahlia Carrington~•~“You guys look so good together,” Aurelie said in awe when she saw the pictures we took from our date the next week. “And he looks so hot holding a gun.”I’d sneaked a shot at him when he was teaching me what to do and how to hold the gun and I couldn’t even lie. Aurelie was right. He looked hot as fuck looking armed and dangerous. “Tell me the date ended in him blowing your back out.”My blush was the only answer she needed. We were busy talking when Prisha came out of her room. “Hey, Dahlia. Can you help me with your phone? I need to send an urgent text to my mom and mine just died.”“Is anything the matter?” I asked as I took my phone from Aurelie and handed it to her.“Nothing too serious. You know how dramatic my mom is if I don’t get back to her on time.”Prisha’s mother was the typical Asian who fussed about everything. If Prisha hadn’t replied to her immediately, she would think Prisha was lying somewhere dead in a ditch.There was electricity and I wond

    Dahlia Carrington ~•~My second semester was going a lot smoother than my first. All rumors about me had died down and people would rather talk about what they did on their holiday than some random girl in psychology.I had seen Roman only once since I came back and it seemed like he had finally given up. He did tell me he had something to tell me about the rumors last year but I didn’t give him a listening ear. I wasn’t interested in anything he had to say when our last encounter ended up with him choking me right before my exams.It was a bummer not being able to see Damon at school anymore though, but it was a good thing since we didn’t have to be so secretive anymore. We could finally go on dates and not be scared about someone seeing us. We could finally stop tiptoeing in a city as large as New York. “Where are you guys going?” Aurelie asked me on a Friday afternoon. I had the whole day off from school and luckily, so did Damon. Since he was busy settling into the new college, w
