Nerthus Sun beams streaming into the room aggressively wake me up rather brusquely. As I stretch myself on the bed, I groan happily and get up in a good mood. After washing my face, I get to the kitchen to make breakfast as my attention gets caught by a movement outside. I find the reason of my peaceful sleep practically camping in front of my door as I step on the little patio. “Good morning, guys.” I shout happily, spotting the two men looking back at me with a frown. “How is your nose?” My former abductor scoffs, pointing to his bruised face. “It is wonderful, thank you so much.” I laugh, crossing my arms over my chest. “Why don’t you guys come in? I’ll make you breakfast.” As the broken-nose-man seems to hesitate. His young colleague practically lights up. “Oh, that would be awesome. Thank you!” He is already sprinting into the cabin, followed by our sulking friend. The men take their place and look around in silence as I prepare our breakfast, humming. “So, what are your
NerthusBy the moment I’m climbing on the giant bed in my flimsy dress and high heels to position myself in the middle of it, my panic is already rising.I had the brilliant idea of thanking him by surprising him and got into the penthouse.Without informing him. As my stupidity dawns on me, my panicky thoughts are suffocating me. I had never done such a thing for a client before, and suddenly I curse myself.What was I even thinking? What if he is with another woman? I contemplate just running back out and my nervousness must reach its peak as I don’t even hear the lock of the entrance door. My train of thought is still drowning me as I spot him already standing in the door.“I got your gift.” I say, getting on my knees shortly before sitting down again. I try to bluff, pushing down my fear of being thrown out in shame.Throwing his jacket on the leather chair, he stops in front of the bed to have his gaze roam over my body. He has his hands in his pockets as he watches me intentl
Nerthus “No way.” I say, feeling his presence behind me. “I’m not signing this. Even if I did, it wouldn’t be binding anyway.” “Says who?” He asks in an annoyed tone as I shake my head. “I’m saying this! This is-” I gasp as he slumps down into the seat next to me, pulling my chair between his legs. Sliding the paper across the table, he positions it right in front of me. He is so close that I can feel his warm breath fanning my skin. “Do you want to call a lawyer?” “I don’t need one! I’m not signing anything.” “Didn’t you have a contract at your old workplace?” I nod and he taps his finger on the paper. “This is just an agreement between you and me.” I lay the pen down and watch him pick it up with a swirl. “What bothers you?” “You… I… This is too restrictive!” I finally exhale as I get to tear my eyes away from the pen between his fingers. “Restrictive?” He hums, making me shudder. “I’ll practically be your slave.” He laughs, turning the contract as if he was reading it
Nerthus This is bad. I comb my hair with my fingers as I watch Arawn drying himself through the bathroom mirror. My head is still a little dizzy from the hot air, and the orgasms I had surely did the rest. Not wanting to be a bother, I pretend that nothing is wrong. Even if he asks again. “Yeah!” I answer with a forced smile, making him frown at me. He releases my chin, and I can turn my head back again. “You look pale.” “Don’t worry. I’d tell you if I felt sick.” I chuckle, trying to fight the urge to pass out. With a hum, he wraps his arms around me, pressing his lips to my shoulder. My heart does a painful flip as I watch him do it through the reflection. God, it looks even better than it feels. “I never asked you…” He raises his brow at me, but I continue anyway. “About the name you gave me.” He looks at me unamused and lets me go to put his hands on the gray granite vanity top. “I thought you didn’t ask questions.” “Sorry. It wasn’t my place to… I assumed as the sit
“Are you okay?” His deep baritone makes me to look up, and our eyes meet through our reflection once again. It feels like a vision as I watch myself nod automatically.He doesn’t seem convinced by my answer and grunts, frowning at me.“Lock your hands behind my neck.” He instructs me and I obey with a smile. But I can see that it doesn’t fool him.As soon as I have wrapped my hands around him, he lifts me up and spreads my legs. I throw my head back and scream in pleasure as he lowers me onto his cock slowly.“Don’t look away, beautiful.” He speaks directly into my ear, and as he moves himself in and out of me, I raise my gaze with a gasp. “Look how fucking beautiful you are. How your pussy eats up my cock perfectly.”“Oh, God!” I breathe out as he continues fucking me in his arms, myself opened perfectly for him. Keeping my eyes glued to our reflection, I come hard as I watch him pound into me with relish.And I can’t remember ever seeing anything that made me so horny. My dizzy sta
“You always spoil the fun.”I curl up into a ball, protecting my head with my hands as Francis yells down at me.“Why are you such a crybaby? He told me that you cried the whole time. Do you think this is fun?”“But he… He was hu- hurting me. Wha- What should I d- do?”I whimper as he grabs my arm to pull me up. “He paid for it, you stupid bastard bitch. What you should have done is stop crying and moan a little more.”He lets go of me brusquely, making me hit the floor.“If this ever happens again, you will pay for it.”Because of the impact, I don’t get to move in time to protect my stomach before he lands his first kick.I gasp for air as I jerk up.Putting my hand on my chest, I take slow breaths to calm my erratic heartbeat.All is good now. It was just a nightmare. Slumping back down, I close my eyes and inhale deeply.As if having a huge crush on a dangerously gorgeous client wasn’t enough, I noticed that I never had a nightmare when I woke up in his bed.So stupid. Dragging
Arawn “Oh, yes. Baby, yes. Just like this.” I plunge my tongue deeper between her folds as her juices are dripping down my chin. God, her taste is addictive. Her nails scrape my head softly as she clenches my hair harder. I can feel her nearing her orgasm, and I suck her swollen nub between my teeth. “Oh my God.” Her screams of pleasure fill my bedroom, and I can feel my cock getting even harder. Ready to take her after she finally came on my tongue. As I feel her legs shaking at my strokes, I increase my pace softly, licking her like she is the best ice cream I ever had. And to be honest, she fucking is. I groan approvingly, as she comes on my tongue. Her back arching off the mattress, my head buried in her amazing wet pussy that just assaulted me with its juices. Licking her from back to front one last time, I lift my head with a grin. I admire her beautifully blushed face and her full breasts that bounce up and down as she catches her breath. “Don’t look at me like that!”
Nerthus“Two Sambuca shots, please!” Danny grins at the bartender, who proceeds to fill two small shot glasses quickly.“Thank God, I’m not your mother.” I mock, and he laughs, passing me my shot.“You are the coolest sister, instead!”“Aaaaw!” I giggle, and with a cheer, we pour the liquor down our throats.“This is ugly as hell!” I manage to say, gagging, while he grins even broader.“Let’s hit the dance floor, shall we?”“Yes!” Squealing happily, I follow him into the crowd where we start dancing silly to the upbeat music.“But I have to go see Arawn afterward.” He nods as I yell at him and taps his jacket where I guess my contract is.“I have to give him that anyway.”I giggle as I turn around. “I’ll have a talk with him about you going clubbing with me instead of playing video games.”“Play with me one time, will you?” Despite his age, I have to look up to see his smile.“Sure! I’d love to see my old neighborhood.”“Awesome!”Just as he has uttered his words, he nods at someone s
Thank you so much, my lovelies for reading, your amazing support and for your patience as I had to take several breaks to finish this one. I hope you loved Nerthus' and Arawn's love story and will be following me for the sequel. XoXo, Shelagh
Lenore Her high-pitched giggles sound like razor blades in my ears as my gaze is fixed on the huge diamond sparkling on her finger. “Well, you will surely understand, right?” Jason asks with a stupid grin as he shoves the hand of his new fiancée under my nose. “We weren’t compatible anyway.” I force up a smile, caressing my arms as I hug myself against the cold. “Of course, you are so cute together.” “Thank you so much,” Gina squeals in her fake happy voice, putting her hand on her chest. “It was so important for me that you would understand.” This scene is so telling. Also, because I’m standing in the open, freezing to death in my cute dress while the snowflakes fall on me, sticking to my hair and melting into my already freezing skin.My best friend and my ex-boyfriend, on the other hand, are standing beneath the roof of the entrance to his house, smiling at me like it’s about to be Christmas.And luckily it is. I gave the best days of my life to this man, my high-school love,
Danny “Is this thing on?” I clear my throat as I tap on the microphone, smiling uncomfortably. “Hey everyone.” The guests are staring up at me and I squirm on my feet as I push out a deep breath. I have never spoken in front of so many people and my throat feels raspy. “As my brother asked me to be his best man, I felt honored, but the first thing I asked him was, ‘Don’t you have any friends?’” A low chuckle goes through the crowd, and I wet my lips with my tongue. “Of course, I know that he has a lot of friends, but he wanted me as his brother to do it. And thank God, Bernie was not too offended about it to help me with the planning of the bachelor party.” “Hear, hear!” Bernard lifts his glass, cheering loudly, getting other guests to join him. I play with my notes, my nervousness increasing as I feel my throat close. “Well, the bachelor party was great. Sorry, Amber, but there were a lot of beautiful girls.” Amber laughs, the diamond pins holding up her hair sparkling in th
Arawn“This is not fair! You can’t treat me like this.” Amanda screams at the top of her lungs, making me close my eyes exhausted.“Well, why don’t you go ahead and sue me?”Her theatrical gasp must cost her so much air that I’m surprised she doesn’t faint.“I hate you!” She screams even louder. “I never want to see you ever again!”So dramatic.It has been quite a while and I still struggle to adjust to this ‘love topic’.All because of that woman.Fifteen years have passed since I asked Nerthus to be my wife, and claimed she just said yes because of her job.I might have her punished for this.But she made me pay severely anyway.“Well, what a shame that you are stuck with me, isn’t it, Amanda?”“I hate you! I hate you!”Groaning, I pinch the bridge of my nose. “You keep repeating yourself. We already figured it out that far, didn’t we, my love?”The shrill scream that she is used to producing during her tantrums risks bursting my eardrums.Well, my fucking fault for thinking I coul
NerthusMy birthday was more than memorable. Especially because after getting proposed to by the love of my life, I got to party my entry into a new life-year with my friends. I drank way too much, fearing I would have spoiled my chance of a tasty breakfast. “I’m out!” I hear Danny shout before the door slams close. Groaning, I fight myself out of bed, desperately needing a cup of coffee. As I reach the kitchen, a strange sensation rises in me. I notice that there is no staff around whatsoever. Not even the usual bodyguard is scurrying around my feet and I guess that Danny left with Goldie to go to the dog school, making the house awfully silent. I tie my morning gown tighter around my waist, concentrating on refilling the water tank of my coffee machine. My heart drops as I hear footsteps nearing, but I don’t turn around. Pressing the button to get the coffee to start flowing, I ignore my body shivering in anticipation as Arawn puts his hands on the counter, caging me in. “I
Nerthus - Six months later I take a sip of my coffee, hugging my denim jacket closer as I watch the children run around the statue of Alice in Wonderland. Thinking about how my life has changed in the last year, I nearly can’t believe my luck and I push down the urge to ask myself how I deserved this kind of life. So many things have happened in these six months and it is just crazy how I’m just living my days with a partner in crime, an adopted boy and a stolen dog. As they had liquidated my uncle’s and aunt’s assets, and as they couldn’t get hold of my cousin, I got nominated as their heir. First, I didn’t want to have nothing to do with it, but with Arawn’s and Danny’s support, I got to the house where I lived before I came to New York and we searched for something that I would want to keep before he arranged for the clean-up and the sale of the house. Naturally, I didn’t want to keep anything. But as we searched the house, Danny found a hidden safe where there were various docu
Nerthus It takes my lungs a few seconds to fill with enough air to push out a horrified scream. But it actually feels like it takes an eternity. Lizzy looks at us with a blank look before she sinks to the floor, collapsing in her own pool of blood. Arawn steps towards her with his gun still pointed and picks her gun up. “Are you alright?” he asks in our direction as he pushes the gun into the belt in the back of his pants. Danny nods, exhaling a deep breath, and I loop my arm around his, hugging him closer. “Let’s sit down. Shall we?” He slumps to the ground nearly immediately, tearing me with him. Nodding once again, he lets his shoulders slump and I turn my head to watch Arawn crouch down before me. Cupping my chin gently, he turns my head to inspect my face. “The ambulance is already on its way. I called Detective Ramirez. Are you feeling well enough to wait for them? Or shall I drive you to the ER?” “I’m fine,” I say, my voice nearly failing me as sobs rise in my throat.
Nerthus The first thing I feel as I wake up is the cold surface I’m lying on. Turning my head to the side, I wait for my sight to focus while I notice that I can’t move. I seem to be constricted by ropes that are tying me to the table and I suddenly feel like I can’t breathe. My clothes are missing, my body shaking as I’m only dressed in my lingerie and I dread the moment when we will find out why we are in this shitty situation. My panic is crushing my throat, my breathing getting heavy as I try to pull at the ropes constricting me on the shiny surface. Checking the room, I see Danny lying next to me. He is bound to a table as well but seems to be still knocked out, and for a moment, I’m glad as I couldn’t take his desperation which would be adding to my panic. The gas must have been inducted into the room on purpose to knock us out and I fight hard not to faint at the thought. I groan, turning my head to the other side as I hope it will reduce the pulsating pain in my skull.
Nerthus “Get him off me!” I scream pushing the dead body from me but failing miserably. Danny scurries around him a few times before he decides on what to do and how to get hold of the body the best way. With a groan, he pushes him off me, making me take a deep breath. “Oh, my God.” He remains standing, staring at the dead man with a void look while I drag myself over the ground to get to the gun he had kicked out of my hand. “Are you alright?” I ask as I sit up with a pained groan, and Danny nods. Laying the gun into my lap, I massage my hand as I take another deep breath. “I think he might broke my hand too.” Sighing, I look up while I let my shoulders slump. I watch Danny while my desperation still streams through me, and I can’t seem to be able to push it down. I know exactly that there is more where he came from. Danny has his gaze still directed to the dead man, his look is flowing into the void, and I gulp as I think about how I must get him out of this dark place as s
