59 - Sun Burn
Last Updated:
2021-04-17 21:08:34I pressed my lips together, trying not to show any emotion and I thought hard about what she just said.
“How the fuck do you know Sun Stroke, and how do you know it’s not just some copy cat,” I said, as a matter of fact.
I stared at her, but she looked defiant.
“You are way too trusting Rae, Sun Stroke is in no way just one person,” I said.
“So I shouldn’t trust you, believe what you say? I know who he is, he has more than proven himself to me, and he’ll prove himself to you as well. I’ve known him for years, way longer than I’ve known you. If he wanted to hurt me, he’s had chances. He actually saved me once from getting raped, was that in your fucking file about me??”

I had always thought my office was the shit, but this blew what I had out of the water.Sure I had heard the name ... Sun Stroke, who hadn’t. But Sun Stroke was almost a mythical figure, larger than life. I had never considered Sun Stroke was only one person, I thought it had to be at least a dozen.How the hell it was possible for him to be everywhere and nowhere all at once. I couldn’t understand, until he fully let me in.We set up a profile for me on his security system, so I could come and go without him. He said he wouldn’t mind if I brought Marcus or Rae, but no one else, without his consent and of course I would respect that.

~Rae’s Point of View~I broke down one lonely night months ago and called Corey. I had gotten to know him a lot better over the last few months and it was like we were old friends.I finally came clean about everything with Jace/Julia and we both cried and held each other for hours. He wasn’t happy to learn about the full extent of Jace’s crush on James, and he was sure he could have won him over if he hadn’t been so stupid.It seemed like we both just found each other at the right time in our lives, we were both looking for a friend, a confidant. He listened to me whine about Fletch and I listened to him whine about his boyfriend finally leaving his wife.Apparently his boyfriend had been in the closet his entire l

Javi’s warmth surrounded me and his hands were all over my tits and stomach. I thought his hands would be rough but they were just firm, soft enough to caress me like I dreamed.The feeling of him inside me was beyond my wildest dreams. Fletch had been big but this was another level. I wondered how he had even found condoms that fit. If we worked out he’d never need them again. I needed to feel him.I felt so full with each thrust and I couldn’t get enough. He stayed on top of me for some time, missionary style and feasted on my tits. I absolutely loved having my nipples tugged and nipped and he did it perfectly.“Javi, ohhh Javi yes baby,” I moaned, as he pushed me over the edge, my pussy clamping down on his huge dick inside me.

We made love, we fucked and we did a combination of both over the next five hours or so. Only stopping for me to make something for us to eat. I can’t remember ever being so exhausted, but also, so fulfilled.“We need to get on the road,” Javi said, running his hand over my belly as we laid in bed.“Are you crazy, I’m beat, we can go back tomorrow,” I said.“We really need to go, I have so much shit waiting for me, and you need to come clean about what Noora sent you, don’t think I’ve forgotten,” he said, kissing my forehead and getting out of bed.He rummaged around the pile on the floor and pulled on his pants.“I’m going t

Rae I had been “dating” or whatever this was for about three months. It was surprisingly a lot easier than I thought. But we both had also been avoiding some of the hard questions we knew we both had for each other.It seemed like we both just wanted to keep the peace, and sometimes it was a delicate balance. I didn't want her to be mad, I didn't want to be mad.We made out heavy at work a few times; I did it on purpose and where I knew people would see us. I’m not oblivious to the way men look at her -- because I am one of them.I trust her, but I still refuse to let them look at her like they would have a chance in hell.She is mine, and they needed to know that. Sometimes I left hickies on her too, and a woman my age wouldn't have liked tha

I called Corey and told him everything and we decided to give it a few days and see if maybe her mom sent her a letter or something … anything. We also figured there would be an autopsy and that would tell everyone the news.I had wanted to speak to him in case Rae asked him to do some digging, I didn’t think it was our place to tell her, and thankfully Corey agreed. It is a fine line to have all of this information and behind the scenes knowledge at your disposal … and to know the difference on when to use the information.I crawled back in bed and held this beautiful woman, this amazing and strong woman … that I couldn’t help. I always knew what to do in any situation, I mean it was my job. There’s always a way, there’s always a plan.But this, I had n

It had been five days and Rae was just a zombie, she was worrying me so bad. I had to force her to eat, to shower … she just lost any ambition and she really wasn’t sleeping.I had been waiting to get her to sleep every night before wandering in my office. I was knee deep in intel from a bombing that just happened when I heard a gagging sound … I turned around to see Rae looking at my screens and then covering her mouth.I looked back quickly at the screens and took down the pictures. It had been of mutilated and burned bodies, not something she needed to see.Rae had never really come into my office before, I usually kept the door shut, which was actually a wall that kept the room hidden. But since the incident with her mom, I kept it open so I could hear her if she woke or had

Thankfully, a week after Mae jumped, Rae got what she was waiting for … I got a call from the front desk in my building, saying there was a messenger asking for me. I ran down while Rae was in the shower and attempted to interrogate the guy.“I don’t know nothing man, this lady last week, she paid me $500 cash and said I had to bring this box here on this date, and leave it only in your hands. She texted me your picture,” he said, holding up his phone.It was a picture Rae took of us the day after we moved in together. I fished $200 out of my pocket and gave it to him.“You did good man, real good. Thanks.”I came in as Rae was coming out of the bathroom.“A m

~One Year Later, Rae’s Point of View~I was utterly and completely exhausted. I had been up two days helping finalize the new build for our D.C. village location. We really wanted to hit up L.A. next since the homelessness situation out there is beyond dire, but with a small baby we just couldn’t be back and forth like that right now.We let Marcus take the reins on L.A., and he was out scouting locations and getting conversations started to make it our third location. The guys were really flourishing and it just seemed like this what we were all meant to be doing.Even more time flew by and we were now about 95% finished with things for the D.C. location ...

Gifted Shadows 85 - The New Best Night Of My Life
Rae had on a sexy little dress that hugged her body perfectly. I was hard just looking at her, but I usually was anyhow. She got us a quiet booth in the back and had actually reserved the table in front of us too for a little privacy.I didn't like her being in public with so little covering her. Her body was only for my eyes, but she was so happy and with today's news I wasn't about to pick a fight or make her feel self conscious.I slid in next to her, instead of in front of her. This way, both of our backs were to the room and it was less likely anyone would see us.Unfortunately, that meant I couldn’t see anyone coming but I was willing to risk it. We ordered drinks and an appetizer even though I already wet my appetite a few minutes ago, I thought … licking my lips and still tasting her

Javi and I got so busy over the next few months, as you can imagine … I forgot to renew my birth control shot until it was well over a month past its time. We still humped like rabbits every single chance we got and something just told me I was knocked up.I was desperately putting off taking a test because a test meant it was real. A test meant people getting excited and wanting to talk about it all the time. A test meant Javi probably sticking me in the RV and not letting me out.Part of me was pissed I let this happen, and part of me was excited. As I thought about letting myself get excited, all I could think about was mom. Having a baby without my mom. Man, that is going to be rough.Dad was now dating a nice lady and seemed pretty happy. He’s only met Javi now a few times, but he
Gifted Shadows 83 - The Village
We first had to decide what city we wanted to be close to, and we all decided on being between Philly and NYC for our first spot. That would also put us a bit closer to Corey’s cabin. We decided to let Corey in on it, and he and Javi both were putting up $10 million each.As we started to get plans together, we were hopeful this initial investment would be enough to fund maybe three or four villages until we could start getting other donations. I had never been so excited and consumed by something, it gave me such hope and it was the breath of fresh air we all needed.Corey’s dearest Perry, of course acted as our counsel and was helping with the paperwork to begin a non-profit. Javi had a lead on a 70 acre lot in Doylestown, just north of Philly and only about three hours from Corey’s cabin.

The day after the presser we were all just exhausted. I was beat from the incessant questioning from dad and Erik. Chris and Mary were leaving in the morning and going to spend the rest of the visit on their own.I finally got dad and Erik to leave us alone and I was so ready for some quality time with my husband.Dad hadn’t even been gone for five minutes when the doorbell rang, and I thought maybe he’d forgotten something.Javi answered the door and there stood two men … one was older and the other looked like the Hulk. Javi must have been expecting them because his eyes lit up and he welcomed them in. They came in and the older man sat at the kitchen table with a briefcase, handcuffed to his wrist.What the heck?

I didn’t care to look at any of it, I wanted to forget it desperately.Noora had to die for their stupid bomb.They gave the information to Scott, and whatever he was going to do with it, I wasn’t sure I cared.

After Fletch left I sat by myself on the couch for a few minutes, and tried to process what just happened. My head was spinning and I felt like I was going to throw up. I knew Javi would press me to know what we talked about, and I don’t know if I could tell him Fletch wanted to propose.Would he second guess himself?Would he always wonder in the back of his mind if that was who I really wanted?He was always so nuts whenever another guy was around, knowing that another man offered me a ring, whew that’s heavy shit. I was torn, but I also operated under the assumption I would likely never see Fletch again.In the end of my own pep talk, I decided not to tell him. I picked the rubberband up off the arm of the couch and wrapped it aroun

I tried to figure out how to ask Javi to marry me while we were in Europe. I didn’t care if he put a rubber band on my finger, I was beyond in love with him and that was all I needed.There were sandwiches waiting for us on the second plane and we pretty much inhaled them. I also had an ice cold coke, and it was phenomenal. With a full belly and a hopeful mind, I fell asleep with my head in Javi’s lap.“Wake up baby, we made it,” Javi said whispering in my ear.I opened my eyes and looked out the window, the sun was coming up.“A new dawn, a new day,” I said.“Exactly why I don’t want to wait baby, I had Toby find a pastor on base, if you’ll s

None of us slept, we were all just running on adrenaline at this point.The pilot on the plane was going to meet us and smuggle us on. Javi said the pilot, who was this businessman’s usual guy, was actually retired Air Force and happy to help us. Javi didn’t think it was fair that the pilot not know what he was getting into. I couldn’t believe the lengths people were going to, for us ... for total strangers and it kept bringing tears to my eyes.Marcus arranged for a van to take us to the airport and my heart was racing. Javi didn’t let go of my hand and he was making me hot and sweaty. We were on a dirt access road and it was pitch black, but I hoped that would work in our favor.I could see the plane, it was about a only about a quarter mile away. There was a van with the
