Craving Mr. Cane Unveiling
Austin“Nothing’s going to happen to me here. Go, settle things with her. I’ll wait for you. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” Olivia’s voice swims in my head as I head towards the woman whom I used to call mother. She uttered those encouraging words but her eyes told me a completely different story. The hint of panic was there. I saw it when she craned her neck as I slipped out of her room. Every fiber of my being didn’t want to leave her, even for just an hour. The instinctive need to protect her rages in me. What if something happens to her and I’m not there to take care of her? What if he manages to escape and goes after her again? I’ll never forgive myself if anything happens to her again. As is, I’m not even sure if I have yet to remove the guilt from letting her slip away. He was able to snatch her because I was stupid and useless. I’ll never forget that. And I won’t let it happen again.“Let’s keep this short and simple. What do you want?” My clipped tone brokers no chit-chat. T

“Can I even be sure she’s not pulling something? She might be lying. We all know she’s capable of anything. She might just use it as leverage.” He rapped his knuckles against the fold-out table beside my bed. This Austin, with his blue sweater, black jeans, and sneakers, is one I look forward to on Sundays. His dark hair has grown out. It’s covering his eyes. He swipes it up and away from his eyes frustratedly. I pressed my lips together and squinted at him. He’s adorable, I know it’s a tough topic we’re discussing but in my state, I’ll take whatever I can. I gaze at him while he gestures his worries. I shake my head, it must be my fever. I’m clearly delirious. Yeah, I’ll blame it on the meds. He noticed my grin and stopped mid-sentence. “Don’t mind me, I’m just processing my thoughts. I know you’re loppy.” “No, tell me what’s on your mind. I wanna know everything that’s going on inside your head. C’mon, Mr. Cane.” “Oh no, you don’t. Do not use that on me.” “What? What is it, M

Nothing is easy. If everything were, it would lose its meaning. At least that was what my physical therapist said. The second one, the first one had a little bit of attitude problem. Okay, scratch that. That was me, I was the problem. I couldn’t get my body to function how I’d like it to and poured my frustrations on anyone nearby. Austin had the wisdom to cut ties with that therapist so it wouldn’t get ugly. I don’t get mad, I just sulk. The passive-aggressive treatment lost its touch by my 5th session and instead, Austin got the brunt of it after. I really should get a handle on my emotions. I know that… It’s just that I can’t get myself to talk about it. I just can’t. Every time I try to, it’s like a dark cloud envelops everything and I choke up. The memories quickly turn into reality in my head. The fear of it happening again takes over. In my mind, talking about it means reliving everything, and who would want that? Who would desire to go back to the most painful event in thei

Austin“Thanks for meeting me.” “No problem at all, Mr. Cane. It’s entirely my pleasure, trust me.” The woman let go of my hand as she sat down. Her green eyes scanned me from head to foot. She wasn’t even subtle about it. Sizing me up, looking for any detection of weaknesses maybe?“You came highly recommended. I just wanted to formally meet up. As I understand, Mr. Henderson is tied up with business abroad. No matter, I trust your firm to handle it.” “I sincerely apologize for the short notice. Scheduling is hard this time of the year. Crime and all,” she giggled at her own joke. She’s odd, a little bit out there. “No worries, Ms. Sinclair.” “You can call me Hailey. Alright, let’s get right into it. On to our case. What do you have for me? I have his psych report already. Anything new?” “Oh, you’ve got it? That was fast.” “Part of the job, Mr. Cane.” “Alright, besides that I don’t have any other updates.” “I do. I have the inside scoop. I spoke with the head of the institu

“It’s barely been a month. I thought they were holding up.” A pause.“You were supposed to give me a heads up. Were you not handling it?” Another pause. “Just stop talking…I’ll be there in half an hour.” Austin’s heated voice carried into the room. I abruptly put down my book and cocked my head. He entered the room shortly, sweaty from his workout and fuming from whatever news he just heard. I followed him with my eyes as he stripped naked and got a towel. I averted my eyes. Forcing my eyes to remain on Stephen King’s short stories. What was he saying about corn?I didn’t retain one word of the whole page as Austin came back to the bed after his shower. He shrugged on a long-sleeved shirt with barely buttoned gray slacks.A suit. I know this Austin very well. Mr. Cane buttoned up his cuff links. All he needs is his expensive loafers and he’d be ready to conquer the world as the big bad boss that he is. “Love, please call your mom. I have an emergency.”“Wait… what happened?” “It

Parker“Show me your hands.” I did as I was told. “Move three steps back.” The old male nurse slotted the tray inside my room and didn’t wait for me to catch it. I learned my lesson that first day.The smell of bland food has never been more unappealing. I slurp up the questionable contents of the tray, not because I want to, but because my famished body is not giving me the option to reject it anymore. Not caring nor minding the weird texture, I don’t even chew on the damned things I’m shoveling down my mouth. My dwindling strength is dependent on these, no matter how much I abhor it. A bang on the metal door distracts me mid-bite. I shuffle onto the only entrance and exit of my confinement because I know that if I don’t, they will make me. The undeniable smirk on my face was swiftly erased that first day when it dawned on me: this was actually worse than prison. I can deal with murderers… but lunatics? I’m not one of those. Or at the very least, not to that extent. That’s wha

AustinShrugging on my blazer and stepping inside the elevator, I leave behind the ‘worried boyfriend’ and put on my business armor. I’ve literally built this building from the ground up with my hands. I designed, invested, and toiled away brick from brick, every inch of this building. No one will succeed in prying it out of my hands if I have any say. Board of directors be damned.“Gentlemen,” I say as a greeting. “Let’s get on with it.” “Austin, we have a lot on the agenda today. Your father’s unfortunate demise has left all the companies under Cane Industries in a precarious state.” One of the ancient geezers that is also known as members of the board drones on. I let them have their moment. With these boomers, these board meetings are the highlight of their day. Hell, maybe their month. Sometimes they like to call up the gang just to flaunt their authority. Most of the time, being the youngest, I do not react. But this, today, it’s personal. “...stocks have significantly dro

I’m suffocating. My road to recovery is like a roller coaster ride. Some days I’m on the up, more than grateful to be alive. But there are days, the ones that suck me into a pit of despair that seems to be happening more frequently lately. Those days are the worst. A cloud hangs over me. No, a rainstorm thunders over my head, and nothing can get me out of it. The worst part is that I can’t seem to hide it anymore. The people around me tiptoe.My mom minces her words. More often than not, she chooses not to say anything at all for fear of triggering something. My friends put on a show. It’s as if every visit is a quest to pull out a laugh or just an amused smile from me. Sometimes I force myself, other times it’s more exhausting to keep up the facade. I love them dearly, but the need for solitude outweighs everything these days.Austin is unwittingly carrying the brunt of my ire. If Austin could carry me to the bathroom, he would. Hell, if he can walk in my stead, he would be so glad

Craving Mr. Cane Madman
“Get up,” he said. “Now. Hands on the table.” I scrambled up and stood at attention. Slowly, ever so slowly, he put his knee in between my legs from behind. “Legs apart, Olivia.”I was vibrating with anticipation at this point. Everything felt charged. I held my breath as I felt him touch his front slightly on my back. I felt his breath on me, touching my skin as he inspected me. “Where did he touch you?” his soft voice was menacing. “I… Austin…” I stammered while he stood beside me. I felt his choppy breath skirting my shoulder. The goosebumps on my skin were ever prevalent. I couldn’t move, I was stuck as a statue. I couldn’t even if I wanted to. He left me paralyzed just by his presence. “I asked you a question, Olivia.” “I don’t…” “You don’t remember?” “I would rather not,” I exhaled. “How did it feel?” “What? I, I don’t know…” “You’re trying to forget, I understand. But you need to open up for me. “ He said this as he wedged his knee between mine. “Ugh…” “Did he tou
Craving Mr. Cane Control
“You’re right. You did a very bad thing, Olivia. And for so long, you tested my patience.” I shivered at the tone of his voice. It sent chills through me. “You made me watch you at your lowest point. You made me endure everything. All because, what? I love you? I watched you, did you know that?” He stood menacingly. My eyes were focused on him undoing his belt, painstakingly slow. “I’m sorry,” I whispered. At this point, these little words have lost their meaning. He stopped beside me. I stared at the bulge in front of me. He gripped my hair. The caring touches at the hospital are long gone now. In its place, he started squeezing my hair. “You had me so worried. I was losing my mind, did you know that?” he gritted out. “I didn’t know what to do, I was so helpless. I couldn’t even get to you. It’s like you were so far away, in your own head.” “I was… I’m…”“Don’t you fucking say you’re sorry. We’re way past that now.” “But,” I struggled to stay in our conversation but I was dis
Craving Mr. Cane Poking The Bear
“I messed up,” I told Austin. We were in our dining table when I got home from the hospital. Somehow, the guilt and the shame pushed me to bare it all out. “Something needs to change. I NEED to change. I royally fucked up and this whole thing is my mess,” I added. He sat there and I knew he was starting to defend my actions again. “You were drugged. He manipulated you…”I stopped him. “That’s true. But what about all the other decisions I made? I decided to continue with the booze. I chose to take what he was giving me, Austin. Even if I was endangering my job, even if I was getting out of control. I chose those things. You can’t… I can’t pin this all on anybody else but me. I have a part in all this mess. A big part, actually.” He lowered his head. Maybe he’s realizing I have a point. “I trust too easily. Call it naivety or just plain stupidity, but I always choose to see the good in people. Even to my detriment.”He looked up at me. “But that’s what I like about you. You chose t
Craving Mr. Cane This Time 'Round
“I’m so sorry, Austin. Please!” The words fell from my mouth even as I was beginning to wake up. The crushing guilt enveloped me right when I saw his face hovering beside me. “It’s alright, you’re okay…” He kept on saying. “No, no, I-” “Whatever it is, that’s fine. We’re going to be okay.”“No, you don’t understand. He did things… I was…” I tried to explain. I tried to rationalize and did my best to come out with it but he just wouldn’t let me. “I said it’s alright, Olivia. My god, the doctors just gave me a rundown of the drugs circulating in your system. They had to pump it out of you just a few hours ago, Liv. It was that toxic.” “I know, I wasn’t myself. I was so messed up. But it was still me, somehow. I had a decision, I made them, a lot of them. Things I regret.” “What are you... What are you saying? What happened?” His brows bunched and I immediately thought how adorable it was until I was reminded of what actually went down in that room. “He took advantage of me. And
Craving Mr. Cane Hate
“I fucking hate you. I hate what you’re doing to me. You’re doing this to me when you know what I’ve been through. You’re no better than all the worst men I know.”He laughed when I said this. He grinned like I was a silly little child complaining. Like I was a mere plaything. Like I don’t have any right to disturb him. It made my blood boil and my insides squirm. “You tricked me. You made me believe in all your bullshit. Just so you could, what? Do this to me?” “Isn’t it worth it? I do say so myself.” He smiled like he already won this game we were playing. Checkmate, his face said it all. “I beg to disagree,” my voice was barely a whisper. But my rage was slowly cooking. It’s seeping through my drug-infused senses. It’s waking me up.I scrunched my eyes. “You’re going to pay for this.” “Yeah, sure. You’re saying that as if you’re not dying to fuck me right now. Need I remind you how wet you are? You’re about to put me inside you, sweetheart. Don’t worry, I can prolong this. J
Craving Mr. Cane Monster
I couldn't focus on anything. My body is on fire. It’s itching to move on its own, seeking pleasure, wanting the release.He was driving me crazy and I felt like nothing was in my control. Somehow, this was everything that I wanted at this moment, and yet… and yet… “What do you want, Olivia?” he whispered. The voice is enticing, making me lose all sense of control.I want to be ravaged. I want to be owned. It’s driving me insane. This animalistic need that’s welling up in me. And yet… “No…” I tried to tell him. “This is…” I tried again. “What?” He pressed his lips on the side of my throat. So light that I barely felt it. Somehow that’s worse. He lifted his other hand, the one that’s not tormeting me and glided it from my face, to my neck to my arms. Right down to my lower back. He pressed on it. Making me slide onto him forward and to his waiting hand. His fingers pressed on my intimate parts. He barely moved it. I was burning from the inside. An internal battle raging in me.
Craving Mr. Cane Ecstasy
"You want me to fucking relax? Are you… goddamn crazy?" I said, bewildered and very much annoyed. "Just enjoy it. I'm sure you'll love it." He looked at his watch. "20 minutes, and you'll feel it."And just like that, everything started to feel good. Just like he said. The antsy feeling in my gut was starting to dissipated. "Am I… am I floating?" I giggled. I stared at my hand and smiled. "There you are," he smiled back. It gave me this strange sense of peace, like nothing I've ever felt before. The weight on my chest is getting lifted. "I feel floaty, Matthew." "I know. Isn't it great? I mixed those for you. Especially for you, sweetheart." He began touching my hand. My initial thought was to remove it but then… "Do you like it? Do you feel better?" And I did. I was light, I was happy. Finally. My god. I smiled, I really smiled. "You're so fucking beautiful, have I told you that?" He sat down beside me. "Nope. You haven't but I'm starting to feel it. I kinda feel pretty.
Craving Mr. Cane Something Wicked This Way Comes
‘Sweetheart’, the term made my skin crawl. I never knew such a word could make me want to vomit that much. Or was it just the pills he shoved down my throat? I have no idea at this point. Does it matter? I’m in deep shit. There’s no other description of the situation. I watched him as he tried to hide his triumphant smug grin. “Please…” I pleaded. “Please, what? Let you go?” he shrugged. “Can’t do that.” “Matthew…” “Hmm… I really… really like that,” he confessed. “I just love hearing it from you. Makes me so excited, you know?” I closed my eyes. Everything was spinning. I scrunched them, maybe if I will this whole thing to go away… “Look at me,” he said menacingly. “Just… don’t go away. You like to not be here, I’m fed up with that. Stay here with me, okay?” “Where do I go?” I prodded. Anything to keep him talking. He might not do anything bad if we just talk. Fat chance of that happening but I can try, can’t I? I have no other choice. “Your past. You always go back,” he sa
Craving Mr. Cane Je Ne Sais Quoi
I went numb. All movements halted as I processed the information he gave me. “I... I should be scared? But… what have I done?” I couldn’t believe the things he was saying. Why is he mad? I should go. I tried to get up once again. He put more weight on my twisted arm, he’s crushing me down the cushion. I felt the panic rising more and more. I wanted to scream and run hysterically but I tried to stamp it down. That won’t help me now. He’s far stronger and angrier, I don’t stand a chance if it will come to blows. One-on-one combat has never gone well for women against men. “Can you release me? You’re hurting me, Matthew.” “No. You’re just going to leave,” he said but somehow his hold eased up. “I’m not, can we just talk about this first? There’s no need to get physical.” I tried to reason with the man, the primal need to escape from danger not letting up one bit. “If you let me go, I’ll stay. I promise.” “You’re too smart for your own good but I guess we could talk.” He releas
