“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 WarnerI was depressed.I haven’t gotten out of my bed for two days now. Going to sleep knowing that no man is attracted to me and that I am unlovable is now calming to me.I was ashamed, all my friends were in a happy relationship.I was happy for all of them but I hated how jealous I was. I just found out that Elizabeth and Victoria were pregnant, there is something going on with Danika and Jake, lastly Landon was also invested in a girl.And what am I doing you ask?I am sitting in front of the television every night with a bottle of wine and scrolling through happy engagement pictures of Hank Simmons.I lied to everyone, my family, friends and coworkers. I told them I am going on a trip to the Bahamas but what was I actually going to do? Sit in my bed, crying and making weird ass noises to express the pain I can’t put into words.I think even my cat is worried about me now.Hank Simmons was th

Emily Warner My eyes widened and his hands instinctively covered my mouth as he realized I was about to scream.I tried to fight him off but I think those were like baby punches for him. He just looked at me deep in my eyes as he put a finger on his mouth, almost requesting me not to shout.I looked at him and his eyes were pitch black, he had an unsettlingly symmetrical face as he stood taller to me and possibly taller to my door frame.I took in his clothing and they looked like military tracks and shoes with a forest green t-shirt. They weren’t excessively tight but I could still see his muscles prominently.Maybe he is a military guy who has been wronged even though he is a patriot and loves his country to death.What if he is from a rival nation?Okay I need to stop binge watching on Netflix because this is getting out of hand.I looked up at him, his eyes were on the door but his hand didn’t loosen around my mouth even for a second.I

Emily Warner“So which is why I kind of wished that spilling beans actually meant spilling milk and vice versa because I genuinely think, I am pretty passionate about this matter. It so close to my heart th-" I pour my heart out as he rubs his ridiculously handsome face, probably wondering how we got to this point in our conversation.Honestly I don’t remember either.“No, enough. I can’t do this. I should have taped your mouth instead of your hands.” He says as he unlocks my handcuffs.“Now listen to me, open the door, take the food and then shut it immediately. Without a word. I will be right behind you, out of his sight, so that you don’t try anything.” He tells me, his face close to my ear, making shivers pass down my spine.No man smells this fucking good.“Okay but he will wonder who you are if he sees you.” I say as I take in a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.How bad is it that I am actually not scared of this guy or this situation?

Emily Warner I heard a click noise, my eyes snapped down to look at my handcuffed hands.“What why?” I cry out while trying to wiggle my not so slender hands out of the cuffs.“Sorry, sweetheart. Your mind runs wild and I can’t trust it. So till the time I feel like you are a flight risk, you’ll be handcuffed.” He says with the most beautiful smile on his face, making my heart melt into a puddle.“Now, can I tell you my spilling milk and beans theory?” I ask as I breathe out loudly like I am doing a favor on him.“No, I can’t do this anymore. You went on about it for 5 minutes, that’s when I understood how long five minutes actually are. No offence.” He groans loudly, making my jaw fall as I take offence to each and every word.He chuckles at my facial expression before sitting back on the couch, stretching his strong arms out. That were wrapped around me a few minutes ago as he..Emily, snap out of it.“It’s b

Emily Warner“Okay can you at least tell me your name? You’ve been living here for a day now and you have been on that WRETCHED LAPTOP the entire time. See, I am tired and hungry, also I need to shower and change my clothes. Please!!” I yell as I look at him typing away on the laptop, paying me no heed.This hot jerk.“Well, you can call me Carter but that’s not my name and yes, you can shower. I won’t tell you my name because I am leaving soon and I don’t want to leave any traces or information. Yes, you can shower and change. I'll cook some food for us.” He says as he finally keeps my laptop aside after hours and heads towards me.My breathing elevates as I gulp my saliva when this tall strong guy approaches me as I try to not look at his muscles that were prominent through his clothes. Thankfully, I had a few men’s clothing lying around, don’t ask me why.Fine, I think they are very comfortable for some reason so I bought them.

Emily Warner Could be anyone from the police, mafia or just a salesman.What if the salesman is an undercover cop?“Emily… Emily.” I look up to see him waving his hand in front of my face, “Go open the door. We are sticking with the story where I am your boyfriend okay?” He whispers as I nod and brace myself, “Are you sure you can do this?”“Of course, why can’t I? Because I am a woman?” I say in an accusatory tone, making him purse his lips and shake his head, almost giving up on me.“Well, for starters, you are shaking with nervousness.”“You are mistaken, you are looking at a woman trembling with confidence.”“Oh my bad.” He says in a mocking tone.Imma punch the hot guy.The bell rings again, making me hurry up and open the door. My jaw falls as I look at Hank standing in front of me.“I knew you would be here. I knew you were not on a vacation. I am sorry, Emily.” He says as he looks at me the same way he used to. My heart fell as t

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“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
