NATASHA

"What an gentleman," I scoffed and shook my head as I remembered how Michael left abruptly and drove off last night.

How could he?

Was it because he's already married?

He's married. That's a fact. Why am I even hoping that he would still look at me the same way he used to?

A lot of things changed, indeed, including him.

Ricky had the mouth to chatter about everything he knows about Michael, and I listened to every word, even though I am fully aware of everything that happened in his life, aside from his marital status.

The media never mentioned anything about his marriage. His "wife" was never seen with him. The only thing everyone knows is that he's been wearing that gold ring since last year.

Is that girl lucky or not?

"Give me coffee, now." Addressing me by my name as the day being his secretary started, and I began suffering under his orders.

Pushing myself off the chair, I headed to the bar just a few steps away from his office and ordered what he usually takes.

    NATASHAFirst five days of working for Michael, and I feel like my hair is turning white. The jerk seems to forget that he's got a company to run."Tasha, Mr. Montero has to sign this. This is part of the upcoming event this week. Is he there?""Tasha, the advertising department is asking for the layout Sir Montero approved last week.""Tasha, has Sir Montero approved Mr. McLiam's lot transfer?

The report should have an approval from the boss.""Tasha, any news about the payroll? The salary distribution starts by the second week of the month. Were there any changes in the schedule?

    MICHAELWhen I asked her to stay, I simply thought that she would let her guard down and let me hug her for the rest of this sweetest day.But, no, I was wrong."Ooh!" I groaned when her elbow hit my stomach and pushed me away from her."Don't you ever do that again!" She yelled at me as she hopped out of my bed and fixed her clothes. "Sir," she added for respect.Massaging where she hit me, I watched her frown at me like I'm the most disgusting person to ever live on this planet."With all due respect, you don't have the right to touch your secretary or any of your employees that way," she lectured me. "It's inappropriate, particularly that you're... married."Humming, I lay flat in bed and purposely pulled the sheet down to give her a sight of my upper body.I assumed that I distracted her from shooting glares at me when her eyes found my chest."I am married," I admitted and showed her my gold ring. "But would it hurt to play just a little bit?" I smirked as she breathed out the so

His voice convinces me to look back and hear him talk to me like I'm the only one who could calm him. And his confession...Placing my hand on my chest where my heart is, I closed my eyes and felt how it beats. It's too fast.Stop it, Natasha.Don't entertain this feeling. It's too risky.

    MICHAEL"I knew that this is a trap," I heard Natasha say as we sat alone in a restaurant I paid the whole hour just to have her myself.She's slicing the steak on her plate as if she's cutting someone's throat and gnawing the meat a little harshly.Ever since I set a rule, I can't help but keep my grin to myself. I know that on our way here, she had a lot to say, but her fear of being kissed in public held her back.My wife is so fun."When I first came here to London, this is the first restaurant I visited. And they have the best steak here," I told her as if we're adults trying to keep this late lunch alive.She sits there like a terror woman who kills with just a glare."Remember our rule, Ms. Kaufman?" I reminded her, and her eyes narrowed even more."I haven't said anything yet, sir, and I believe that I'm being polite the whole time." Her sharp tongue must have been blunt. She's keeping herself from talking inappropriately to me.I have this feeling that her eyes must be hurtin

    NATASHAThings happened in a blur as we ended up in bed without any clothes on.I'm overwhelmed, struggling to breathe. His addictive kisses are suffocating me, clouding my thoughts, and leaving me unable to think straight.I know I promised myself not to let my guard down, yet here I am, under his dominance, being ravished.On his lips, I moaned as his hand found my sensitive clit. It tickled and made me tremble.Before we reached the bed, he had me coming more than a couple times, leaving me spent but still wanting for more of him.I admit that I miss this, his touch, his lips. But the pain is still in my heart, the fear of betrayal haunting my thoughts.Gasping for air, darkness closed in as he thrust two fingers inside me."Oh!" I moaned, my toes curling from the building sensation inside me.He gazed into my eyes as he expertly caressed my sex. "Does it feel good?" asking the obvious, I failed to utter a word and just nodded my head. "I should be the only one to touch you like th

    MICHAELI was played by Natasha like a child's toy, and my goodness, she looked fucking hot while doing it.I had mentioned that I wanted to tie her up in bed, not the other way around."Fuck..." I muttered under my breath as she began to take control.Her back was to me, and I watched as she moved rhythmically on top of me, her movements similar to a frog leaping.Her hair bounced with every move, much like the way her backside moved every time I reached her deepest point."Oh, Michael..." her moans were already weak, a clear sign of her exhaustion, and I could hear it, feel it.Holding onto the headboard, I took over and continued to move within her, causing her to gasp and scream out in pleasure.Damn, she's making the most beautiful sounds I'd ever heard as she reached her climax yet again.She was pooling wet from the inside, and yet I hadn't reached my peak since we started.Was this the game she wanted to play?Fuck, I'm suffering like shit."Baby, untie me.

    MARTIN"Could you please relax? I'm getting dizzy because of you," my wife, Thalia, said as she sat on a rocking chair, crocheting as if nothing bad could happen at any moment."I can't," I accidentally spat on her, causing her to give me a piercing look above her eyeglasses. "Look, Thalia, if you can stay calm in times like this, I can't." Walking to the window, I closed the blinds and peeked outside.The sea was calm, with many people playing by the shore and basking in the sun, burning their skin.Children's laughter is usually uplifting, but I couldn't find any joy. I felt distressed!"We've been in this situation for almost four months now, Martin. Trust our son, he knows what he's doing," she calmly reassured me, glancing at the crocheted cats by the window, gazing up at the moon. "Look at this, I've finished it. What do you think?""That would be the twentieth crochet you've made, and this will be the twentieth time I'd say it's pretty," I replied.I don't mean to be rude, but

  • Grooming Our Love   CHAPTER 71: MEETING HIS WIFE

    NATASHAI stood by my dresser, tapping my bare heel on the floor, staring at the rows of dresses hanging there.All my dresses were too conservative, completely covering everything.Frustrated, I groaned, closed the dresser, and dragged myself back to bed, nervously biting my nails and shaking my legs."Why am I trying so hard?" I questioned myself, glancing at my reflection in the mirror where I stood in just my underwear, waiting for my hair to dry naturally. "It's just dinner, dinner with his wife. Why am I trying to show off?"I stomped my foot on the floor, returned to my wardrobe, and pulled out a black dress. It had a V-neckline, sleeves that stopped at my elbows, and the length reached my knees."Will this do?" I shrugged and put it on, checking my reflection in the mirror.I brushed my hair, deciding to leave it loose. It had grown longer; I should probably get it cut when I have time."Okay, you look good," I encouraged myself, looking at my reflection in the vanity mirror.

    MICHAELMarried, patched up the past, and currently facing some challenges."Whoa!" I exclaimed as a flying vase welcomed me the moment I entered the house. It nearly hit my face if not for my quick reflexes."I don't want to see your face!" Natasha shouted, catching me off guard.I knew she was in a bad mood when I left this morning, but what had I done wrong?Setting the vase down on the floor, I was greeted by another jar, but this time, I failed to catch it, and it hit the wall, shattering into pieces."Baby, what's wrong? What did I do?" I asked, completely clueless about the situation."You were seeing another woman!" She accused, grabbing a flower vase from the coffee table."Baby! Baby! Stop, okay? Let's talk this through.""Talk?" She threw the vase, hitting the door. "Only guilty people would want to talk because they know they were caught!""What?" I sighed, walking closer to her."Don't you dare take another step, Michael Montero," she pointed her index finger at me, but I

  • Grooming Our Love   CHAPTER 153: LOVE NIGHT

    NATASHAI let out a yelp as Michael suddenly scooped me up from the ground when we entered the house.The entire day had been a mix of nervousness and excitement. Now, we're wrapping it up by expressing the love we vowed in front of the altar and, well... by making love."How does it feel to finally be my Mrs. Montero?" He inquired, kissing my jaw as we climbed the stairs."I haven't felt it yet, but I think I'll find out once we get to the bed," I mischievously replied, knowing he enjoyed it.The way his face lit up and his eyes sparkled, I knew my naughty Michael enjoyed it when I let myself go wild. He likes it whenever I ride along in his mischievous side."Oh-ho, you definitely will," he chuckled, pushing open the door to our bedroom and gently laying me down on the bed, being careful not to hurt my stomach. "I want to be rough, but I can't, right?""Nope," I shook my head, biting my lower lip."That's a shame," he whispered before leaning in to kiss my lips.I could sense his ex

    MICHAELThe church is ready, everyone is prepared, and I am all set. However, what's not ready is the schedule; Natasha is still not walking down the aisle.Aaron's laughter beside me only adds to my irritation. "Chill, man. I'm pretty sure Tasha won't run away this time. She's head over heels for you."Choosing him as my best man might have been a mistake. I could have picked Quintus instead, but he insisted on giving up that spot and settled for a seat in the audience. But, Pierce intervened, insisting that they both accompany Natasha down the aisle together.The process of the wedding was a challenge, it was a lot of work, a lot of planning, but now, everything was perfect.I just wish that Natasha will see this as what she expected it to be."You're sweating. I bet you'll be drenched like someone poured a bucket of water on you once she finally arrives," he teased.Rolling my eyes, I silently prayed that I wouldn't do anything inappropriate in the church, or I'd end up in hell soo

  • Grooming Our Love   CHAPTER 151: WEDDING GOWN

    NATASHAPromises are being fulfilled one by one, leading me closer to exchanging vows with the person I want to spend my life with."Are you really sure about your choice?" Laura's question felt weighty, as if we were discussing something serious, even though we were just ordering a slice of cake at the café."I clearly said I wanted it," I replied matter-of-factly. "You're acting like you're footing the bill," I added, handing the girl at the bar the money to settle everything I ordered."I'm just worried about you. Michael mentioned you've been into sweets lately. Have you seen all the treats you ordered? All sweets," she gestured towards the three paper bags being readied at the counter. "Yes, you asked for one slice, but did you order every flavor available?"Looking around with a pout, I noticed how Laura's nagging had caught the attention of some customers."If you plan on bloating up like a balloon, you might want to postpone the wedding because the gown won't fit," she teased.

    MICHAELI can feel the coldness of her hands against mine; I can see how edgy she becomes as she fidgets on her seat for the past few minutes.The soft song coming from the speakers isn't loud enough to drown out the loud beating of her heart because from where I am, I can hear it."Relax, baby. No one's going to eat you here aside from me," I joked and squeezed her hand lightly. "Unless you need me to ease you down. I'd be glad to attend you in one of the rooms available in Dad's house," I whispered to her.I expected her to scold me and slap my shoulder, but instead, she stood up and pulled me with her.Looks like her hormones are getting stronger and stronger. I like it when she's the one insisting.Passing by Richie, who's carrying a tray of food, probably for Nathaniel, I nodded at him when he looked at us with a frown. Must be because the party is about to start, and we're heading back inside the house.Wincing, I discreetly pointed at Natasha, and he already knew what it means.

    NATASHAMy choice was right to drop everything I planned ahead and settle at home, in bed with my husband.I feel like a woman, a strong person while he makes me weak at the same time."You're-- you're pulling back," I said, noticing the way he doesn't move the way he did back then. Every thrust he gives me is careful and slow, tickling me."Shhh...." he hushed me before claiming my lips and kissing me endearingly. Every suck he makes on my lower lip urges me to make a sound, and every time he thrusts deep inside me, I catch my breath.My fingers run through his hair, yanking and pulling. Wanting him closer."I missed you so much," he whispered in my ear as he moved inside me.The air between us is supposed to give us the freedom to breathe properly, yet we only feel suffocated. Our skin begins glistening, sweat rolls in a breezy morning.The wind coming from the open balcony door can't outdo the heat we're making."Ah!" I scream when he hits the right spot, deep. "I'm coming," I gasp

  • Grooming Our Love   CHAPTER 148: THE ONLY CHOICE

    NATASHATwo months after the incident, I've become more cautious about what's around me, the people I encounter, and the smallest details that I could see.Michael told me everything, what happened before the incident and after.I figured out that Elena manipulated everything and he admitted to me that he also fell for her trap. He said that he thanked me, or else, he would have secured the wrong person.The aftermath, everything became a lot different than before. It's like everyone believed that we have moved on, but we haven't. Or is it just me who can't move forward?The aroma of the caffeine reached my senses as I stirred the coffee with a spoon, standing by the sink, my eyes looking through the window and found Michael heading to the back door while wiping his greasy hands."I finally fixed it, didn't I say so?" He proudly uttered as he opened the back door. "I'm Michael Montero, baby." He came close to me, and I immediately stopped him."Oh my God, Michael. Don't you touch me w

    MICHAELI could barely hold the wheel. My hands were sweating. I was a bit on edge, thinking about getting caught in an accident for getting too distracted."We're three cars behind you, Mr. Montero. We got your back," Detective Han said over the phone. "I have my team keeping an eye on your house. Just one wrong move from them, and they're all canceled.""Thank you, Detective."I feared not being held captive, but for my family.There were no words coming from any criminal's mouth that I could trust. All I knew was that while the sharks were around, I needed to keep myself from bleeding. But my family was the bait. I would let my blood stain the sea."I've arrived at the house, Detective," I announced as I pulled over in front of the gates. "Take the shot when I'm in the open.""We got you, Mr. Montero."Leaving everything inside the car, I hopped out, looking around, counting how many visible eyes were on me.The concrete floor felt like it was getting hotter with every step I took,

    NATASHATime was ticking, and my heart seemed to fail with every passing second. I kept my mouth shut, even as the man who had us tied up bore a hole in me with his gaze."This is itching my fingers to pull the trigger," he murmured, tossing aside the fork he used to eat the skewered meat Dad Quintus had grilled.The clanking noise made my shoulders tense, gasping for air as I closed my eyes.I could feel a sudden pain in my stomach. My baby, no! I had to stay calm.Breathing in through my nose and exhaling slowly through my mouth, thinking about Michael calmed me, but I couldn't help feeling even more nervous.Every footstep the man took decorated the air with silence, a noise I didn't want to hear. The tapping of the soles of his shoes described menace, and I felt threatened every second.The smell of his odor clung to danger. I could smell it, and I could feel the approaching distress."Hey, you," he pointed at one of his men who was shamelessly feasting on the food from the table
