Emily Warner“Why am I here with you? You could have gone to the market on your own, there is no need for me to come here with you. Unless, you took my advice and started considering me a threat? Oh my god, Carter, that’s so sweet of you. Thank you.” I say as I smile widely as we walk through Target, pleased that now I am considered a dangerous hostage.It’s so flattering.“Sure.” He says monotonously, barely paying any attention to me, as he looked around.“Also, I need you with me so I look less suspicious, someone like you can balance me out.” He says as I look at his appearance.Yes, he looked like a criminal.Wait, did he say ‘someone like me’?“What’s that supposed to mean?” I say in an angry tone, making him smirk a little as he shakes his head.“For your information, I got detention three times.” I say as I walk ahead to see a mountain of Nutella jars, arranged in a beautiful way.This is what I
Emily Warner “You know if we walk like this, people might suspect something strange going on here.” I whisper it to him, making him raise his eyebrows in that damned sexy way.“What do you mean?” He asks as he goes through a few clothes for him.“You are tightly holding me in place like I am a kitten and you are barely talking to me.. Also, we don’t seem like an ideal couple so I feel like-“ I explain but I stop as he completely lets go of me.“You are right. This does look weird. Hold my arm and walk with me and occasionally laugh at my jokes.” He says as my eyes go to his huge biceps, making me blush.I shyly link our arms before resting my head on him and walking ahead as he picked up infinite number of items.“You k-kissed my neck and did stuff to me.” I blurt out as my face heats up. I wanted to talk about this for a long time but I was too nervous to bring it up.“Yes I did. Did you not like it?” He asks me in an
Emily Warner“Okay, that’s it. You either tell me everything about your mission or whatever this is or get out of my house.” I say sternly as he looks up at me with an amusing smile on his handsome face and raised eyebrows.That smile was evil but kind of hot. Nothing about this guy can give someone a good feeling, he screamed danger.“I am not leaving and no, I am not telling you anything because the more you know, the more trouble you will get into. And from what I’ve learnt about you so far is that you can’t keep that pretty little mouth shut, so you can understand my hesitation when it comes to telling you something. No offense.”“Absolutely not. I never agreed to no offense. I am taking offense to each and every word. Every time you insult me, you say no offense as if that is magically going to heal the pain.”“Pain?” He ask as he pursed his lips, trying not to laugh.“No, if you are trying not to laugh at least do a better
Emily Warner We maintained an eye contact as he started to grind into me, making me cry softly when his member grazed my hotly erect clit. My hands tightly held on to his biceps as my neck fell back, my mind was blank, I could feel his lips greedily kissing my neck and going down to my chest brazenly as he continued grinding into me.The bell rang twice making us freeze in our place, my eyes were wide as I stared at him, waiting for his instructions. He quickly fixed my appearance as hundred thoughts ran through my mind, I couldn’t figure out who it might be.“We are sticking to the-““You are my boyfriend story, I know.” I exclaim as I feel knots in my stomach.Okay, Emily, you can do this.Unless, I go into paralysis and I physically can’t do it.That’s actually a good point.I head towards the door, and open it slightly. I see two police officers standing in front of me. I feel my anxiety increasing as I giv
Emily Warner“Oh my god! What happened here? I was gone for 20 minutes.” I heard a booming voice behind me, making me jump a little. I turned around to see a shirtless Carter, with messy hair looking around and trying to figure out if a cyclone went through my kitchen.“I thought I could sit around and mop about Hank or..”“Destroy your kitchen?” He asked and he looked at the mess that I’ve managed to make fifteen minutes after stepping inside the kitchen.“No, I was reading Cosmo and one of the tips to ‘get over a man you’ve never had’ is to cook something for yourself.” I tell him and his mouth falls open when he looks at the horrible excuse of a dough I’ve made.Hey, at least I tried.“Everyday... I really don’t know how… you manage to find a different way to annoy me... every day. Do you have a book?” He asks me as he rubs his face with his hands knowing that he has to clean up the mess.“No, I don’t have a book but
Emily Warner He is not doing this on purpose right? That’s not possible.He is just trying to teach me something.Yes, Emily, don’t try to make anything else of it.My body froze as I felt him dig his nose in my neck. He ran his nose across my neck as I felt him take in my scent, the grip of his hands on mine tightened, pulling me into his chest further.Okay, now he might be trying to do something.“C-Carter, what are you d-doing?” I manage to ask breathlessly, trying to ignore the throbbing of my clit.“I am teaching you something, Emily.” He mutters as he starts peppering kisses on my neck. My head falls back on his chest, as he bites down on my shoulder. Suddenly, he turns me around and claims my lips.I fall limp as he devours them without a warning, like he has been waiting to do this for years. I feel his hands on my ass as he pulls me into him. I could feel the heat of his bare body on mine as he mercil
Emily WarnerI left the kitchen with the phone in my trembling hands, my body and mind kept telling me that I was doing something wrong but I couldn’t stop.I needed to talk to Hank. I sometimes feel it’s easier to pass judgments but till the time you are actually in the position and as hopeless as me, no one would understand.I couldn’t look at Carter and I knew he wouldn’t stop me. He can try to help but he can’t do anything else. The thought of disappointing him gave me a ball in my stomach. I don’t know how I am going to cope after he leaves.It’s not fair. Why do people keep leaving? Why do they enter my life if they have to leave?“Hello, sorry, I got another call.” I say, surprised that Hank was still on the other side. I knew he would never wait for me. I am the one who does such stupid things. Tolerate things that no normal person would.Once I waited on line for half an hour because he got another call.And tha
Emily Warner“Umm… sorry please, I won’t run off.” I mumble but he just laughs like he can read my mind.“Sweetheart, one day you will meet a man who will love you so much where you might doubt his sanity but never his passion. Don’t waste your time on people who make you wonder if they love you or not. It’s just not worth it.” He says as he kisses my forehead.“You don’t understand, I am 29, a man has never fallen in love with me. Ever. No man has ever said I love you to me. I am just not the kind of girl men fall for.” I tell him hating how vulnerable I was in front of him.I have hit a new low.“Okay, I usually don’t do this. I have never really had a deep or meaningful conversation with a person. But with you, I always end up saying what I feel. Usually, I don’t care enough to guide people but you. You are so naïve and pure at heart. I feel the need to protect you.” My heart stopped beating. I couldn’t breathe. I didn’t know what to t
Emily Warner“I am happy to know that he has talked about me. I can’t wait to meet him after so many months. I miss him so much.” I say normally but the sadness in my tone is audible.“Hello sweetheart.” I feel a hand snake around my waist and a head rests on the nape of my neck, pulling me into a very familiar hug. My breathing stops as my nose inhales the masculine scent I was acquainted with.I scream a little out of joy as I turn around and jump into his arms, wrapping my legs around him as I hear people laughing around me. I hear Lucas chuckle as his hand caresses my hair, hugging me tighter.I break the hug a little to look at his handsome face that I missed for so long. I lay a soft kiss on his lips as he smiles at me before setting me down and greeting the rest of his family.I feel like my heart was going to explode with the amount of happiness that I was experiencing right now. I look around to see Jake and Danika smiling at me, knowingly
Emily Warner“I don’t understand why we are having this celebration.” I say as I pout, wanting to go home and watch a few movies and then fall asleep on my couch.“I thought you would be excited for Christmas!” Jake says as he takes a seat next to me while munching on a few candy canes.“What’s there to be excited? Everyone is here with their boyfriends, families and babies. I am here alone.” I whine as he pats my back in a feeble attempt to console me. Jake and I have grown really close, because apart from Mary, he is the only one I can talk to about the real situation going on with Lucas.Also, because Lucas can’t really risk putting my life in danger so he communicates updates through Jake, who in turn lets me know if he safe or not.“By the way, I was thinking of doing something.” I tell Jake who nods his head. “Like a hobby?”“It can be one if I am successful.” I say and he stops mid-way of his eating and gives me a look. “What c
Emily Warner“So who were all of these other kids you grew up with? Are you still in touch with them?” I ask him excitedly.“Yeah, all of them are like my siblings. We meet for Christmas, thanksgiving and all the big holidays.”“Oh my god. That’s awesome.” I say, surprised at how happy his childhood memories were. When you hear the word orphan, it somehow has such a negative connotation.“Yeah, all of them come to meet Mrs. Carter with their kids and spouses, I always go alone. It’s a running joke that I am going to be a bitter old bachelor.” He says, making me laugh a little at the thought.“So do they know what you do? Are you in touch with them on a regular basis.” I ask him, as I feel my head almost exploding with the number questions in my head.“They know I work in the army, but I manage internal operation. And to answer you second question, they are all busy with their own jobs and family, but if we call each other we talk
Emily Warner“So did you have a heart to heart chat with you boyfriend?” I tease him when I enter the kitchen and see him making some coffee.I could really use a cup of hot coffee. Last night, Danika and I drank a lot as I told her a lot of things about Lucas.“Ha-ha hilarious. But yes, we did talk through lot of things.” He says as he hands me a cup of coffee. I smile and feel happiness when I realize he made a cup for me too.“So did you guys come to a mutual understanding?” I ask as my lips curved into a little smile.“Yeah we both agreed that he is an asshole and I am a jerk.” He says, making me raise my eyebrows. It’s funny when two men argue over childish things.“That’s seems like a grown up thing to do. I am proud of you too.” I say as he flashes me one of his heart melting smiles before sipping on his coffee.Ugh this man is too gorgeous.Imagine waking up to this Adonis every day.“So you met
Emily WarnerI leave the room, completely dressed, after my long phone call with Mary where she explained what Socrates, Odyssey and Olympus is. And also, of course a few thoughts on Lucas.As I exited my room, trying to pull my black dress down as it kept riding up my thick thighs, annoying the hell out of me. This is why I don’t like wearing bodycon dresses, they are so uncomfortable but it does look pretty when I suck my tummy in so…“Hey- why are you wearing your shoes?” I ask him as I look at him standing near the door with keys in his hands.“I am taking you there with me. I’ll leave, once you meet Danika.” He says and just heads out of the door, leaving no room for argument.“I can manage myself okay?!” I say as I follow him, closing the door behind me. “No you can’t.”“Why? Because I am a woman and I am wearing revealing clothes. Let me tell you something Danika and I are fully capable of...”“No sweetheart. Danika is
Emily WarnerI head back home after sitting in the coffee shop and reading a book for three hours, finally when I realized it was six, I decided to head home. According to Lucas, I was on my lunch date with Jacob, obviously I was lying to get a reaction out of him.So I decided to torture him more by making it seem like I spent almost 4-5 hours on this date with Jacob, which would be an indication that things are going well.I am enjoying being in power when it comes to Lucas, I wish I took Mary’s advice sooner. I could have avoided a lot of confusion. After our little session last night, I could see that he wasn’t happy with the fact that I was going out with Jacob again, his face was sullen but if I have to be honest, he deserves it.If he wants me, he should ask me.Thankfully my mom and dad decided to leave and didn’t wait for me as I got enjoy my time with my mom. I was nervous about my father insulting me or mocking me because most
Emily Warner“Also if you don’t mind, since we have ended things between us on such good note, you might leave soon and last night, my mother interrupted us…” I say shyly looking down at the floor, drawing circles with my fingers.“Yes?” He asks, as I see him anticipating my next words. “You know-“ I say too embarrassed to say the whole thing.“Emily, sweetheart, you have to speak up. I don’t want to make assumptions.” He groans as he stares at my completely red face now.This is so embarrassing, but I have to take charge.I get up from my seat and walk towards him, I see him sitting up straighter, not knowing what my next move could possibly be. I put legs on either of his side and I sit on his lap, making his hands go around my waist to stop me from falling.“I will miss this, us… you.” I say as I look into his deep black eyes, I squirm a little when I feel his grip on my waist tightening.I move my hips around a little on
Emily WarnerI came home after two hour chat with Mary. I felt like I finally met someone who understands me and doesn’t look at me with pity in her eyes, she knows exactly what I am talking about and where I am coming from.She made me jot down points on a notepad because I would for sure forget them, I was surprised at how predictable I am. I kept telling her that Lucas would never get jealous and he would see through my tactics. But she laughed at me and said that I don’t know how men work.I still think I should warn Lucas once before I start the plan that Mary laid out for me so carefully. I hate how connected I am to him, I don’t want to make him feel bad.But Mary was very stern with me and said that I have to hold my ground if I want to give Lucas a taste of his own medicine. She said he can’t go around playing with me.But still… he is such a sweet guy…“Lucas!” I call him out as I drop my keys and phone on the coffee ta
Emily Warner“Emily, you are here finally. Elizabeth has been looking all- Woah you are crying?” Nathan says as he looks around not knowing what to do, “You know what, let me call Elizabeth.”“Actually Nathan I’ll deal with her. I know why she is crying.” My eyebrows raise as I see Jake smiling at me as he leads me inside, “Her cat- umm- her cat-““Is sad, like depressed and there are apparently no cat therapist so I called the-“ I complete Jake’s sentence but Nathan just looked at me with raised eyebrows, not buying my awesome story.“How about this? I’ll come back to you in half an hour when you have a better story prepared?” He asked me in a serious tone.“Yes boss, I can do that.” I say as I salute him for some reason and he laughs before walking away.I get nervous around Nathan, he is my best friend’s husband but he is my boss first.“Emily, I know you are really emotional right now but you can’t tell Elizabethan a
