DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 9
Ava's POV. I was currently at work. Work has been so hectic these past few days but I've always made sure to finish it because I want to go home early to see Sean. And I'm glad he's always at home whenever I return because that way we'll have time to talk and even have dinner together every night. Knock knock. I heard a knock on my office door and I raised by brows in confusion. Who could possibly be here by this time?"Who is it?" I asked curiously. "Damon." The person answered in a cool voice. "Damon?" I repeated in confusion. Why would he be here? "Yes." He answered. "Come in." I said so he could come in. "Hi, how are you doing?" He said with a sweet smile on his face once he stepped into my office. "I'm okay." I answered, trying to return his smile but mine was an awkward one. "...." We remained quiet for a short moment. "Uhm, why.." I finally spoke up but then I took a long pause. "W-why are you here?" I stuttered. "Won't you even ask me to sit down?" He asked m
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 10
Ava's POV .We soon arrived at the chicken restaurant and we all settled down and somehow, I ended up sitting down in between Tiffany and Damon. Talk about having the worse fate. Tiffany was the one who made the order. She ordered barbequed chicken, fried chicken and garlic chicken with barbeque sauce. She also ordered for some beer which was the first thing that was served. "So tell me, Ava, do you have a boyfriend back in Florida?" Tiffany asked me and I sighed heavily. Why is everyone asking me the same question?"No." I answered. "How did you know I'm from Florida?" I asked once I noticed what she said. "Damon told me." She shrugged. "Oh." I mumbled, when did he have time to tell her this? "Why not?, you're really pretty you know." She added and it felt awkward. "Uhm thanks?" I mumbled. "So why not?" Someone else from the group asked. "I was busy studying." I answered truthfully. "Well, you seem like the studious type so I'll believe that." Tiffany added. "So why are
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 11
Ava's POV. "Why not?" I asked Tiffany for the umpteenth time. "Don't you know who he is?" She shrugged. "No." I said with raised brows. Am I supposed to know who he is besides him being my coworker? "He's the boss's son." She answered and I frowned. "Does being the boss's son means he can do whatever he wants?" I scoffed. "Well, that's pretty much it." She said to me as she walked out of the restroom, leaving me standing there completely gobsmacked by this new information I'm just receiving. Being the boss's son gives him even more reason to be a decent person but yet he chooses to be a douche and thinks he can go Scott free? What kind of fucked up situation is this? Does being in high places mean that people should behave this way? I guess New York city would be teaching me a lot more than I already know. I mean did he think... Ugh! You know what? I'm just going to get out of here. There's no point in dwelling on it and pondering over it in the
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 12
Ava's POV. I started to sob really loudly and even fell to the floor. I was frustrated and very scared. But Sean looked even more scared than I did because he ran towards me and crouched down to my level so he could see my face clearly, I'm guessing. "Ava, what's wrong?" Sean asked me in concern. "Why are you crying?" His voice was laced with concern. "I.." I couldn't say anything. "I.. I.." instead I stuttered. I couldn't find the words to say, whatever I tried to say just kept getting stuck in my throat and more tears was pulling out. "Ava, talk to me." He insisted. "Did something happen?" He asked. "Was the party boring?""Are you coworkers picking on you because you're not from around here?" He continued to ask me all sorts of questions even if I just continued to cry. I liked how concerned he sounded. It made it feel domestic. Like he wasn't my father's best friend or an older man. It just felt homey. "Ava, talk to me." He pleaded and I sighed heavily."I'm fine."
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 13
Ava's POV. With the position we were in, I could smell his breath where I was and it smelled lovely. I could tell that he had taken a mint flavor candy before his mouth smelled like it and I just wished that I could have a taste of it from his mouth.My eyes were fixated on his lips and I don't know when I started to move closer and before I could stop, I smashed my lips on his. I kissed him. Me, Ava Bennett.I kissed him. I was shy and scared and I thought he wouldn't kiss me back but before I could pull away, he started to kiss me back too.We became so lost in the kiss. The kiss wasn't one filled with passion or something as strong as that.It just felt warm and cozy.It felt natural like my lips belonged on his. I decided not to focus on other things and to just focus on the kiss.Soon, we stopped kissing to catch our breaths and we looked each other in the eyes. Then, Sean switched our position so that I was laying on my back on the couch and he was on top of me. Then he
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 14
Sean's POV. My mind was preoccupied with what happened yesterday night. I was bothered by how Ava had acted. Crying like that and saying it's the change? Something just doesn't add up. Something is missing. She can't just start feeling that way when she has been in New York city for over a month. Or am I just being paranoid?Or maybe it's just for my own benefit.Ever since Ava came to live with me, I feel alive again. I feel like I can move on with my life and get over the fact that Esmeralda no longer wants to be with me. Well, I can't really blame her for that anyways. It's all my fault but I would have appreciated it if she had just told me that she wanted a divorce instead of getting caught cheating on our matrimonial bed. After that day, I could never look at Esmeralda the same way again. At first I hated her but then, I came to realize that it was my fault all along. The last few years of our marriage, especially after the kids moved out to live on their own, I beca
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 15
Ava's POV. Few hours ago, as soon as I stepped into the office building, I heard someone say something behind me and I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me who it was. Damon. "Is that why?" Damon asked and I raised my brows."Is what why?"I asked. "Is that why you rejected my proposal yesterday?" He said as he gestured to Sean who has already driven away. "Because you like older men." He huffed. "I don't have to answer your question." I countered angrily. I scoffed at him angrily and quickened my pace. As I got to elevator, I noticed that the one that was currently opened could still fit one person in and so I quickly entered into it, leaving Damon to stare at me. Once I got the office floor, I went to my office and closed the door behind me so that I could start working. I was nervous that he might come to my door and start banging on it but I didn't hear anything at all. And so, I carried on with my day. I even got to eat lunch without seeing him or that high pitched Tif
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 16
Ava's POV. "Who are you and why are you bothering my daughter?" His words kept repeating in my head like a broken record and I couldn't get it to stop.It was like as I listened to it, the more I knew my place.I could never be his special someone, I would always be his friend's daughter who is like a daughter to him or his daughter's best friend. And as I continued to think about this, I felt a pang of pain in my chest. "I'm.." Damon was unable to speak. "I.." he stuttered, unsure of what to say. "Is he the one?" Sean asked me once he noticed that Damon was too stunned to speak. "The young man you told me about?" He asked me and I raised my brows in confusion. "Uhm, yeah." I lied. I knew I had to play along especially since I didn't tell him about Damon stalking me. " Young man, when a girl says she's not interested, it's smart to just walk away." Sean snapped at Damon who became calm once Sean said that. "Okay?" Sean asked. "Okay." Damon mumbled. "I don't want you bothe

DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 28
Sean's POV. As soon as Ava ran back upstairs, I figured that she was still embarrassed because of what happened last night. I sighed heavily as I left the house to go to work, so I could give her space to deal with what's going on with her. Few hours passed and my mind was still on what's wrong with Ava. Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested. I'm only worried. She has never had an actual relationship which might be reasons why she's falling for an older man. She just needs someone to put her through, but first, I need to do something for her so she can forgive me. And maybe I can even help her get with someone who is more suitable for her instead. I used my laptop to search the internet, so I could see it on a larger scale. How to please a friend?How to please your daughter?I wasn't sure on what to search for so I settled with this instead. What to do when you offend someone? "Just say sorry." I started to read them all out. "Buy them gifts.""Do something to surprise
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 27
Ava's POV. I groaned as I got up from the floor where I laid, my body was aching and I felt tired as fuck but I ignored it as what happened yesterday replayed in my head like a broken stereo. I sighed heavily as I went to do my daily routines so that I could to work this morning. I hoped that Sean had gone to work already as I went down to get breakfast but I was wrong.I guess things don't always go the way you plan after all. I sighed heavily as our eyes met and he watched me intently just as I watched him.I could have sworn he was undressing me as he watched me or maybe that's because that was what I was doing to him.Or should I say that is what I actually want to do to him right now? I knew he has already rejected my advances towards him but right now, he looked so sexy and it made me even more hornier than I always was whenever he's near by. "Come and make love to me."I found myself saying and he raised his brows in shock. "What?" He asked in shock and this time I felt m
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 26
Ava's POV. I was about to pull away when I felt him kiss me back with the same amount of vigor. His hands even went down and he held my waist firmly, putting me in place as he kissed me back with the same passion. However, everything was cut short as he pushed me away soon afterwards like he had just realized what he was doing. He looked at me in shock as he stepped away from me and my heart sank. He recoiled away from me like the way you would recoil when you see bug or worse, a rodent. "We shouldn't be doing this." He managed to say. "Why not?" I breathed out as I struggled to catch my breath from the intense kiss we had just shared. "It's wrong." He said to me and I frowned. "I shouldn't have done that." This time around, he was talking to himself. "Sean!"I called his name and he frowned deeply at me. "Ava!" He screamed my name and I shuddered in fear. I had never seen in him this angry before, not since the moment that I started to stay in this house. "You're just con
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 25
Ava's POV. "In love with who?" I tried to play dumb. "With him." Damon deadpanned. "You're just saying whatever comes to your head now, aren't you?" I scoffed at him. "You think I'm bluffing?" He scoffed back. "I would never do that, I'm not like you." He added and I hissed. "When have I ever bluffed?" I asked angrily. "Enough of this bullshit, don't try to stall time or try to change the topic." He yelled at me and I sighed. "I know your secret." He insisted. "..." I was quiet, unsure of what to say. "Is he the reason why you're refusing to be with me?" He asked me and I looked away. "Well, I can understand, for a man of his own caliber compared to me, I bet you must feel like you're losing out." He mumbled to himself. "Shut up!" I yelled, not wanting to listen anymore. "The son of the biggest company in the whole of new York city compared to me must be like comparing vegan meat to actual meat." He said and I got confused. "What?"I mumbled. "Huh?" He raised his brows a
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 24
Ava's POV. "I wanna check something." He said to me and I nodded in response. He brought his phone out from his pocket and checked it for a short while before turning to face me. "I guess the people I took pictures with earlier must have posted our photos on the internet." Sean said to me and my eyes widened in shock. "It's fine, our faces were blurred but I'm going to call my legal team to deal with it so don't worry." He said to me and I nodded in response. "Sorry about that." He said to me and I raised my brows in confusion. "About Esmeralda.""She seemed drunk,maybe that's why she acted out like that." He said to me and I smiled. It's not even his fault and hes apologizing so much. Such a gentleman. Plus, he has been saying sorry alot more these days and he actually means it. "It's fine." I said to him as I continued to smile at him."So what I wanted to talk about earlier was .." he said and took a short pause. Right, he was going to say something to me before Esmerald
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 23
Ava's POV. "Here it is, I got it out." Sean said to me with a smile and I smiled back. "Oh, thankyou." I said to him as I blushed. "Let's go to the next place, shall we?" He said. "Okay." I nodded immediately and followed after him I wondered where we were going to this time around but I didn't ask.I didn't want to ruin the fun I was having by asking a question. I just wanted to go with him.For today, I think I would go anywhere with him.The next place we were going to was an art gallery.Actually, I wasn't surprised. I kind of expected this. I guess someone as classy as Sean wouldn't go on normal food dates or picnic dates. It would be somewhere were you can also learn from. "It's beautiful." I said once we were inside. "Yeah, it sure is." He agreed with me. "What's your favorite painting?" He asked me and I thought a little before answered him. "Starry night." I answered. "By Van Gogh, why?" He asked. "It's beautiful, it feels romantic." I answered with a light chu
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 22
Ava's POV.Sean seemed very different today. And it wasn't because he told me we were going out all of a sudden. He seemed to excited and the spontaneous request to go out made me kind of curious.And I'm curious to know the reason that he'll bring me out here. Finally, we got to our destination and he went ahead to park the car while I looked around from the window. Once he switched off the engine, we both got down from the car and I used that opportunity to look around properly. I wasn't sure why we were here so I decided to ask. Maybe he has a business deal to seal here or does he want to introduce me to someone? "Is this where we're coming to?" I asked as I looked around. "Yeah." He answered as he came to stand beside me. "Beautiful, isn't it?" He said as he looked at the place lovingly. "It is.." I said awkwardly as I looked at the entrance of the aquarium. I wasn't sure why we were here but I guess it has to be for work purpose.Though I'm not sure why I should spend
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 21
Ava's POV. I groaned as the ray of the sun shone in my room, waking me up from my beautiful slumber. "Ugh, what a day!" I said despite the fact that it was still very early in the morning. I heard the sound of my phone ringing and I grumpily picked it up. "Ava!, were you ever planning to call your parents?" I heard my mother's loud voice over the phone and my eyes opened immediately. "Mom" I called her name in shock. "Don't call me that, what kind of daughter doesn't call her parents and just keeps letting them hear about her from someone else?" She snapped angrily and I could tell that she was greatly pissed off. "Not that Sean is someone else but you get my point." She mumbled to herself. "Why didn't you call me?" She snapped again. "Huh?" She said when I didn't reply."Mom, I'm sorry." I said truthfully. "I didn't mean to, I've just been quite busy." I said with a soft sigh. "Busy with what?" She asked and I sighed again. "Are you dating someone?" She suddenly asked
DANGEROUS LIAISONS CHAPTER 20
Ava's POV. "You're joking right?" I said to Kevin who scoffed. "Why would I be joking about this kind of thing?" He asked me. "Because you don't just spring up conversations like this one childhood friends?" I shrugged in response. "Let's go out together this weekend and I'll show you how interested in you I am." He said to me and I raised my brows in confusion. "Kevin.." I called his name softly but he didn't give me your chance to say what I had to say. "You have a few more days to think about it so do that." He said to me and I frowned. "Think about it and call me this weekend." He insisted. "I'll pick you up." "Kevin..." I called his name, trying to stop him from talking so he could listen to to me but the elevator stopped and he stepped out of it in a hurry. I watched him run out of the elevator, leaving me there, standing in utter confusion. What just happened?Did I just get asked out by the son of my first love?Oh universe, you have to be kidding me. "You sure too
