One Night StandI tried to stand up, but my legs couldn’t carry me, it felt like everything was spinning, seeing how drunk I was, he held me to support me, he led me slowly out of the bar and into his car, I can’t believe am getting into a car with a complete stranger and drunk on top of it. A minute later he drove off, after what felt like a 30 minutes drive, we arrived at his place. He came out of the car and came over to my side, opened the door and helped me out.“What a gentleman” I laughed"Careful now" he said smiling at meHe led me into his place. I took a look around“Nice place” I complimented“Thanks” he said as he approached the fridge“Mmhmm” I hummed“Want some more drinks before we start?” he asked“Oh yeah, get me drunk” I replied freely“I mean you are already drunk” he said“Are you a fucking nerd?” I asked“No, why?” he asked“Then shut up and get me a drink” I said“Someone’s still on edge I see” he replied before opening the fridge to bring out a bottle of alcoho
Take A Shot At MeLater that day, my sleep was cut short when my phone beeped, the beep woke me, I grabbed my phone and looked at it, it was a message from Julian, she was checking up on me. I got up and sat on the bed, cleaned my face with my palm, and texted her back to let her know I was okay. Ever since the incident the other day, she has been doing a routine check on me. I am lucky to have a friend like her. When I was done texting back, I navigated to my call log hoping to see Alex’s call, again I know that was stupid but then I still can't help myself. With every check comes the disappointment, he still hasn’t called or texted back, what was wrong? I have been thinking that he ghosted me but what if something happened to him. Something told me to go check him out.I got up from the bed and went into the bathroom picked up my toothbrush, put some paste on it and started brushing starring back at myself from the mirror, as I did I kept thinking about Alex. when I was done bathing
PanicHe drove to a motel, paid for a room and dragged me up the stairs."Stay here, take this. Anyone that's not me, shoot before you ask questions" he said handing a gun over to meI stood there confused"I'm going out to get some first aid supplies, I won't be long" he said looking at me and giving me a reassuring look before he stepped out and closing the door behind him"I don't even...know how to use that...please don't go" I muttered to myself not having the strength to speak up even though I knew he can't hear me anymoreI held the gun and sat down, I was nervous and scared, every second that passed seems like an hour. Where was he? Why was he taking too long? Have they caught him? And coming for me now? Oh God. I stood up and paced around the room till I heard footsteps approaching. I stood steady facing the door and pointing the gun at the door. A minute later the door slide open."Shit Sarah don't shoot, fuck! I forgot I gave you a gun" he said shocked to see me pointing a
AnxietyWe were still in the motel hiding away from our pursuers. I sat down, my whole body trembling, I tried to stop but it seems I have lost control of my body. Alex on the other hand wasn't doing so well, not because of the wound but because he was anxious. His fever has broken. The wound has been closed and he has taken some antibiotics. He has been pacing around the room from time to time and peeping through the window occasionally. He was stressed, so was I. He was without any shirt, just pants so I could see his arms, muscles and Abs. I bite my lower lips and pressed my legs together in an attempt to stop my arousal. I was the very worst for thinking about sex at a moment like this. He looked so strong, with his muscle filled arms just parading shirtless in front of me, calling me to come forward and touch them. I was so engrossed in my imaginations on the things I want him to do to me that I didn't notice when he turned to look at me. Once I met his eyes, i diverted my gaze
The Three Of UsI went into the bathroom to take a shower and after some minutes he came into the bathroom already stripped. I was drenched in water. I turned to look at him wondering what he was planning to do."Can I join you?" He askedI didn't respond, I just turned and continued to scrub my body with the bath foam. He knew I was angry with him, he moved closer to me"Let me apologize" he begged then he kissed my neck gently, I love how his lips were so soft on my skin. I slide my head backwards in pleasure as if to say continue, which he did. He kept kissing all the way down sending shivers to my spine. I was already wet and it wasn't from the water. He kneeled down, took my left leg up on his shoulder while I used my right leg to support myself. He kissed my pussy and licked on it, I felt a rush of pleasure as a moan escaped my lips. He kept on kissing, licking and sucking on my pussy, he was doing this thing with his tongue, I don't know exactly what but it felt great, I could
PROLOGUEThere he stood, I looked up at him from the bed. Classy suit, shiny polished shoes, hair well combed, Rolex watch attached to his wrist like it was specially meant for him, his face, oh his face always shone, his brows so thick that it really brought out his skin color, his deep grey eyes looking down at me. His nose pointed with pride, his lips well curved and calling to me, his scent intoxicating, the smell of money all over him didn't go unnoticed. Whomever brought him into existence really took their time on him. He was made perfect. When he smiles at me, I swear I could see a tooth shine. My typical man, my spec. Rich, handsome, stylish and dominant. Even his scent is dominating, when am around him, I seize to think properly. He seems to have been made specially for me. He looked at me and smiled."Are you ready for me?" He asked, his voice deepAm I ready? Like you have to ask. I am always ready for you."Always" I replied with a welcoming smileI can't wait for him to
My name is Mia, am 28 years old and am a divorce lawyer. I'm the type of girl that like to follow my heart, do the right thing and never lose focus. I am the first female lawyer to ever get hired in the Joel Law Firm. Joel Law Firm is one of the top 3 law firms in the country, and hires only the best and so far I haven't disappointed, I have been doing great, I have made more money for the firm and myself in such a short period, my boss is proud of me but I know he was just keeping my around till I was no longer useful to his pocket, he isn't the type to respect women not to talk of the ones in my profession. Becoming a lawyer and being hired by one of the top firms was a dream come true and a great achievement on my part, I mean I trained and worked my ass off for this, I deserved the win. I am so proud of myself and my achievement. I always wanted more out of life, so much more. I needed to be perfect. I like flashy things, flashy houses, flashy cars, flashy wears, anything flashy
I was still thinking of how to approach the matter when I saw my boss passing through. I hesitated to call him to talk but I have to do it anyways, the sooner the better. I made up my mind to talk to him, so I rushed towards him to speak to him. Seeing me approaching and calling out to him, he only slowed down but didn't really stop."Sir, I need to talk to you" I said as I followed behind him. Mr Edward is my boss, his interest has always been towards money, he didn't hold much respect for women. If my records weren't outstanding he wouldn't have considered giving me the job. He doesn't believe I should be here working with them but I make good money for him so he overlooks it."What are you doing? She's waiting, you shouldn't keep her waiting" he said to me with a frown showing he is displeasedMy heart skipped a beat seeing him like that but then I reminded myself that I had no choice so I have to push forward."Yes, I know, but I just need to tell you something before I go back
Mia's PoVThe next morning I prepared and headed to the office, I had a plan and the plan was to expose my boss for who he truly is and what he has truly done. I know he is smart enough not to implicate himself so I have to be very crafty with this. I need to push the call ight buttons or all is lost. I don't have the evidence the P.I gave me with me anymore since they were confiscated by the police after Liam dragged me into his mess once again. I have to be really smart about this actually because I do not have any other plan, if this doesn't work, I don't know what next to do. I have just one shot and I plan on making good use of it. I took a taxi to the office, ones I entered the premises, I told my secretary to let Mr. Edward know am here and that I want to meet with him. After she made the call, she told me that he said to send me in, which I know he wouod,. He must have been curious as to what brought me back here with everything that is going on in my life right now which am
"He said one thing at a time and promised everything is going to be alright" I said sitting down on the couch and stretching out my legs. It's been a really long day and my legs are aching badly. A massage would be such a bad idea right now. I desperately need one"Ana, do you think am stupid?" I asked"What? No, not at all" she answered quickly and I smiled"You are a good friend and I know you love me but I need an honest answer this time please" I said to her"Mia, you are the smartest woman that I know, I don't think you are stupid, you just made some wrong choices that's all and hell, who doesn't at some point?" She said"I'm not so sure about the smart part" I said as I started to get emotional again and tears started to line up"Mia, opening your heart to someone doesn't make you stupid, you were in love, it's not something that you can control, we can't control who we love" she said in a sweet voice"I don't know, I feel really stupid, I feel so empty" I said sobbing"Hey stop
"Liam took me there to see a building, he wanted me to start up private practice there, to start my own firm in the middle of nowhere. His wife said some things about him being an isolator and a control freak and am seeing that now"This is bad Mia" she said taking a sip from her glass then her phone began to ring, it was an unknown number. She picked up"Hello, who is this?" She asked"Hi Ana, this is Liam" he replied "It's Liam" she said to me"What?" I asked coming closer and whispering to her to put it on speaker"How the hell did you get this number?" she asked him"I just spoke to my lawyer, we really need to talk to Mia, it's really important, is she there with you?" He asked ignoring Ana's question"No she is not, whatever you want to tell her, you can tell it to me, i will just pass it on later" she said to him"I know you don't know me like that but I promise I didn't do all these things am being charged for, am innocent. It's just my wife and her lawyer that is doing all th
Mia PoVWhen we got to Ana's place, I sat down like someone whom the body was present but the mind was absent. Ana went over to her fridge and got out a bottle of alcohol and two glass cups. We came over to the couch and dropped them on the table then poured out the drinks into the two cups, and slide one my way as she took up her own glass and drank from it, a slight frown appeared on her face as she did"Are you going to tell me what happened now?" She said taking another sip"He was laundering money and dealing with really dangerous people" I said still sitting still"What? Mia did you know about this?" She asked surprised"No, I did not. You know I can never involve myself in something like that. Why would you even ask that" I said looking at her"Then why are they in your house and taking all your stuff?" She asked still doubting that I didn't know anything at all about the crimes "He asked me to move some money into my account but that was to keep it away from his wife, not bec
Ana's PovI drove over to Mia's place after she said not to come pick her again, I waiting for over an hour but she didn't come in, so I went across the street to get dinner but when I came back up the door was unlocked and wide open and there were police all over the place tossing everything around and moving things. I was so shocked I thought I went to the wrong room, but looking inside I realized I didn't go to the wrong room, I am at the right room, all of Mia's properties were there and the police officers were just touching everything."What the heck? What is going on here?" I asked as one police officer rushed out to stop me from entering the premises "is Mia inside that house?" I asked the police officer but before he was able to respond, Mia showed up, she was coming from the stairs and has no idea about all of this."You again?" She said to the police officer that came out to stop me from entering the place, I guess they know each other or have met at least"What the hell is
"Good news, he accepted to let you meet with him, he should be here any second" he said and I breathed out in relief and my face brightened up"Thank you" I said happy he did me the favour"Sure" he said. Then the door opened up and another officer led Liam into the room in handcuffs. I should really get used to seeing him like this since it's now happening more often. After the other officer brought him in, he left the room"I will let you two talk" the nice officer said before leaving us both alone in the room and closing the door behind him"Hey, listen" Liam started but I could wait for him to talk not after what he put me through today and all the things I found out about him"What the fuck Liam" I said upset"Look, listen to me. It's my wife and her lawyer lover, they are the ones setting me up, they are the ones doing all this. I can tell you I didn't do anything. They had all this planned out" he said desperately"Do you know how worried I was, when those guys carried you, I
"Look the charges are all legit" he said apologetically but still confident"You should know that his wife is really on to him, she could have plotted all of this, believe that woman is crazy, I wouldn't put it pass her, maybe you should be focusing on her instead torturing me" I said upset"No, this isn't his wife. He has been doing this for a very long time now, even before he met her,tl this one is on him not her" he said"Okay I think am gonna go" I said getting off the car seat but he got off the driver's seat and stopped me "Please just calm down, I know this is a whole lot for you but being angry about it isn't going to make it go away and besides where are you going to go?" he said to me"No am not upset about what you are telling me, I guess am just angry at myself for not figuring it out on time. You think you know someone but–shit!" I said with a mixed feeling. This is just all too much"Hey listen, you know I really can drive you back to the city, instead of sitting here
Once he heard my reply, he parked by the side of the road and got down from his car"Hey, are you okay?" He said coming toward me, I became scared and alert I took some steps backwards to put a space between us at least to give me a headstart if something should happen. What is he is a psychopath or a kiddnapper or a killer? There were many things running through my mind and my insecurities set in. If anything should happen to me here, nobody will know because Liam drove me out here very early in the morning, I didn't get the chance to call or tell anybody where I was headed and now I am left here no phone, absolutely nothing on me but my cloth"Obviously not" I said still suspicious"Well, did your car break down somewhere? I can help you to fix it, I am not a mechanic but I know a few things" he said nicely. How is he so nice, it's awkward I thought to myself"No" I said keeping my eyes on him and studying him"In that case, can I give you a ride back to wherever?" He asked"Do you
It was a building, a complete building. I did not know if I show uod get excited or not. "Liam what is this?" I asked a little confused"It's a building, you can start your firm here. I mean it looks a little bit old, we can fix it up a bit" he said smiling. I stood there still confused, why would I want my firm an hour away the city? Was he joking and I specifically told him I don't want to go private"It fit the profile perfectly, it's spacious has all the equipments and fittings intact, you will love it, let's just take a look inside" he continued"Liam, we didn't talk about this, you didn't think this is something you should have mentioned to me before now? Instead of driving us out here this early?" I asked a little upset"Just wait a second okay, let's go take a look inside first, am sure you will love it" he said. I just felt that he wasn't hearing me"I'm a city girl, I love the city, I don't want to be here Liam, out alone here in the middle of nowhere?. All my friends are i
