RENEE As I walked into my apartment, the soothing sound of SYML's “Girl” played from the small stereo in the corner. The song brought with it a sense of peace and calm that I rarely experienced these days. It helped me relax, even if only for a short time. And that was precisely what I needed right now—to relax. To let myself breathe without being weighed down by my worries. The previous few days had been... trying. Trying and more challenging than I could’ve imagined. “Damn!” I muttered, shoulders slumping as I closed the door behind me, sighing exhaustedly against it. My body sagged in front of me. My hands pushed my long hair away from my face before rubbing my tired eyes and pinching my nose. I knew my sleep-deprived appearance wasn't doing me any favors, and I wouldn't say I liked thinking about how I looked. Instead, I tried to distract myself by recalling everything that’d happened today. From scouring the streets of Orlando in my fruitless search for another job—since I
ROBERT “Robert, stop sending me flowers! Stop sending apology notes! They won’t change anything, so stop. Stop it!” Renee’s voice came through from the other end of the phone the moment I pressed the answer button and held the phone to my ear. I shivered slightly. Her call had arrived just as I was wallowing in self-pity, with a bottle of whiskey in hand and a plate of uneaten food staring blankly at me. I’d been ready to drown myself in a sea of sadness when this phone call interrupted my lonely reverie. Like always, her voice pulled me out from under the water where my problems had taken hold, forcing me into a state of self-consciousness I hadn’t felt in days. Renee was my lifeline. A ray of sunshine amid a stormy sky. She made me want to be more. To be better. She was my rock, the one thing that kept me grounded in the midst of this constant chaos.Ever since she’d come into my life, everything had changed.For the first time in years, I felt so in love. So happy. So, satisfi
RENEE “I’ll go check who’s at the door.” Nicole offered, smiling as she kissed me goodbye and exited the bedroom for the living room. “If it’s the delivery guy with flowers and notes, just send him back to wherever he came from.” I yelled after her, my eyes rolling. “As usual.” She snickered. “Of course. As usual.” I said. “I’ll do exactly that, my lady. Whatever you say.” She responded with a mock curtsy, and I rolled my eyes. Sighing, I sat on my bed, pushing the comforter across my legs and pulling my knees into my chest. I leaned back and watched as the sun rays from outside flickered across the walls and curtains, casting a warm orange hue into the small cozy room. My thoughts drifted away as I reminisced on the past few days' events. I faintly smiled and closed my eyes as I inhaled the fresh breeze that filtered through the open window. Even though my life was in shambles, and I was still unemployed, I was doing my best to stay positive. Suffice it to say that nothing e
ROBERT “Mr. Clarke. Someone’s waiting for you in the office.” As my secretary leaned over the table and whispered something into my ear, I looked up from the conference desk, trying my best not to scowl. “And why are you telling me this? I said I didn’t want any interruptions or intrusions, right? I’m in the middle of a crucial conversation here.” I motioned to the board members seated dutifully, waiting for me to continue our discussion. “Any visitor is welcome to wait. I’ll take care of them after I finish here.” But my secretary wasn’t paying attention. “The visitor appears adamant about seeing you right now.” She continued, her brow furrowed. “She is…” “She?” “Yes. The guest is a lady. A certain Miss Renee.” Renee? Holy shit! What was she doing here? My lips twitched, and my eyes widened in surprise. “Did you say, Miss Renee?” I asked, this time softly.“Yes sir, that’s right,” my secretary replied with a nod.“Oh… But it won’t be Miss Renee for long. Mrs. Clarke would be
RENEE As Robert’s lips plundered me, our tongues clashed, our bodies collided, and my heart exploded with emotion.He was kissing me. This man who was the absolute love of my life. My soulmate. My all. My everything.He was my nemesis. Someone I claimed to despise with a zeal that could incinerate anything in its path. He’d hurt me so much I’d vowed to never forgive him.I’d told myself a thousand times that we’d never be together again, but now he was kissing me. And fuck, if I didn’t like it.Hell, I wanted this. Damn it! I wanted him even more desperately now.As his hands caressed, my hair and the kiss deepened, my knees weakened, and my brain began to shut down. Everything softened within me, and I melted into him, craving his warmth. His touch. His love. This should’ve been a romantic moment—after all, we were kissing after weeks apart. It ought to have meant something. But it didn’t, not with our ongoing quarrel and the fact that I still held a strong grudge against him.“Fu
ROBERT I slid unapologetically inside Renee, pushing myself into the heated core of her pussy. Each thrust felt like heaven and better than the last. With her hands splayed across the office desk and her back to me, she looked so fucking stunning from behind. Like every man’s wet and erotic fantasy rolled into one breathtaking package. Her strawberry blonde hair fell down her back in an elegant silk curtain brushing against her bare shoulders, and her skin shined with a healthy glow as her peach-shaped ass swayed in time with my thrusts. “Oh, Robert...” As I pushed deeper into her, she moaned, and the sound of my name on her lips made me shiver. The sweet, soft-spoken word, said so sensually, made my chest ache, and my pulsing dick twitched even more. “Yes, baby girl?” “Fuck me... fuck me harder, Robert.” “Oh really?” I asked, abruptly slowing my pace. She let out a muffled whimper of disappointment as I pulled out from inside her hot, wet folds. She craned her neck such that
RENEE“I still can’t believe you slept with Robert, Renee.” Nicole snickered for the umpteenth time. Her snide remarks echoing off every wall and corner of the room. “Please, Nicole. Don’t start.”“Oh, Renee...” She purred before continuing. “You went to his office to confront him about the restaurant, but he ended up fucking you. Way to go, Mr. Robert. I love me some a dirty-minded man.” “Nicole don’t gloat about this. And don’t remind me of that mistake.” I groaned, burying my face in my hands. “Mistake?”“Yes. It was a mistake. Something that happened out of the blue and...”“And then what? Come on, girl. I know you wanted it.” Nicole snickered.“How? Why would you say that?” I shot back defensively, raising my head to face her fully.“Because that look of massive sexual satisfaction is written all over you, bitch. You are positively glowing tonight. Since I got home from work, and you told me about your hot angry sex with your sugar daddy, you’ve been floating!” Nicole smirked,
ROBERTMy heart was pounding in my chest as I swerved through the congested streets. My car roared down the road at breakneck speed. I was pissed. My mind raced with rage as I replayed the events leading my outrage.Some motherfucker laid his slimy hands on Renee. On my woman! At a nightclub.This was the only information I got from my man following Renee.With the threat of paparazzi and reporters watching her every move, I’d hired a bodyguard for her. Someone to protect her without her knowing about it. Someone who would keep an eye on her from afar and ensure no one hurt or molested her in public. His only job was to protect her and keep her safe from the type of scumbags intent on stalking and harassing her. All because they wanted to take some itty bitty paparazzo photos that would fetch them money. So far Harry, the bodyguard, had barely given me a report. Renee rarely left her house, except for the visit to my office earlier today. She spent most of her time locked up in he
