RUE
Even after the pole dancing performance, I was still in shock because of what I just saw.
Tysha? Doing pole dancing? Damn hot! Although her skills were clearly way lower than the other two dancers, I couldn’t help but just focus my eyes on her.
Instead of getting the ick for seeing her dance so stiffly, I even found it so damn attractive. I could feel my manhood growing even after their performance.
I suddenly remembered our first session before where in I bursted into laughter after seeing her dressed as if she would perform a pole dance. Who would have thought that she would actually do that?
I smirked as I shook my head before I stood from my seat.
“Where are you going?” Rij asked when he noticed I was about to go.
“I’ll just check out one of the dancers ea
TYSHA Gosh! I’m craving for Rue's touch! Since I couldn't wait any longer, I was the one who put his hand on top of my chest. With that obvious hint, Rue already knew what to do. He brought out my boobs from my clam-shaped top without unclasping it. Feeling his warm hands claim my peaks drove me crazier. I want him! He played with my tits like squishes. His lips slowly made their way from my jaw, down to my neck, and then to my chest. My heart hammered so fast as I anticipated his lips to reach my twin mountains. As soon as I felt his warm and wet lips on me, I automatically closed my eyes because of the pleasure that I felt especially when he started sucking my nipple. His hand was squeezing my other boob. “Rue, oh gosh!” I couldn't help but gasp sensually when he playfully nibbled it. He continued doing that alternately until he was satisfied. It was startin
RUE “Mama saw me!” My proud smile disappeared when I waited for Tysha to come back to our seat after our performance and I noticed her unusual expression. When I processed what she said and the fear in her face, my heart skipped a bit as well. “What?” The shock was evident in my voice. Just by looking at her pale face, I knew she was panicking. It was making me worried too. “I need to go home. Please, take me h-home.” Her voice started trembling. So, I held her hand to calm her down. “Alright. Let’s go.” I did not hesitate to go home with her. I wasn't even able to tell Rij we were going home. I had no time for that. We tried to look for her mother outside the Eventide Cabaret but we found no one. She might have gone home already because of anger. So, we decided to head to their house. When we settled down in my car, th
TYSHA After being caught lying, there was this feeling that ate me up from the inside. It was like this heavy rock in my chest that just wouldn't budge. I tried to pretend to Rue that I could handle my situation alone, but deep down, I knew I couldn't. As I headed to our house, my heart was beating so loud. It was the only thing I could hear. I took a deep breath as I tried to unlock the door. But, it was not locked. I was able to enter our house without needing keys. “M-Mama?” I whispered as I entered our home. The whole house was dark. When I opened the lights, I found my mother in front of me. Her eyes were red because of anger. The disappointment in her eyes hit me harder than any punishment ever could. It was like the ground beneath me crumbled away. “Ma—” Before I could even talk, her heavy palm landed on my cheek. It made me turn in the other direction.
TYSHA "Tysha, your mom... she's not up for visitors," my dad said, his tone heavy with concern as he stepped out of Mom's room. My heart just dropped hearing that, but there was not much I could do about it. "I get it," I whispered, barely even hearing myself, feeling like my chest was getting heavier with each breath I took. Despite everything that had happened, it was still such a blessing that nothing severe happened to Mama. The doctor said we were lucky we were able to bring her to the hospital as soon as possible. The doctor also stated that we should not give her stress for a while. Only a few minutes after, my father came to the hospital. That was when I told him everything—what I did in Eventide Cabaret, what my mother saw, and what she found out. I told my father everything, including the things I wasn't able to tell him for being
TYSHA I woke up when I felt a kiss on my cheek. As I opened my eyes, I saw that it was Rue who kissed me. He was already in his suit, ready to go to work. Just like what my father advised us, I stayed with him for a while. I think I will for a couple of days or weeks until I win back my mother’s trust again. It was not a problem to Rue anyway. In fact, even though he might not admit it, I was sure he loved the idea of us living together. “Baby, I gotta go to work,” he whispered in my ears. I slowly turned to him and gave him a slight smile. “Good morning.” I greeted him. “Okay. Take care.” “Don't forget to eat breakfast and lunch, alright? Call me if you need something or ask Frederick.” “Uh-hmm.” “I love you.” My heart melted at his words. At times like this, I couldn't help but imagine him as my husband already. Gosh! “I love y
RUE “Is it okay with you that I won’t be able to greet you at the event later publicly?” I mumbled in front of Tysha as we prepared to go to the venue of the SlumberLux product launch today. Since my grandfather and my family would be coming, they couldn't see me with her. I knew that was fucked up but… up until now, I still haven't found a way to level up our relationship to the extent of introducing her to my family. I was planning to focus on that once this product launch becomes successful. I was already in my attire for later, just waiting for the time to pass by with Tysha. She placed her hand on my jaw and gently caressed my cheek with her thumb. I was staring at her intently the whole time. “Of course. I understand t
TYSHA I didn't tell Rue about what I suspected about my pregnancy right away. I still wanted to confirm it first. My guts were telling me it might be possible though. I just realized that it's been two months since the last time I had my period. At first, I didn't care because it usually happened to me for being irregular but now, there could be another reason for that delay. To be honest, I didn't know what to feel about it. Instinctively, I was excited and happy but the thought that it could be bad timing for my relationship with Rue scared me. It added to the reasons why I didn't tell him about it. As the crowd applauded Rue after giving his speech, I couldn't help but feel proud. I clapped for him as well. The urge to go to him and kiss him was strong but I stopped myself. So, all I did was support him secretly. “Did you know that he's still single?” Two wo
RUE “What is it, Grandpa?” After the main event of the product launch of SlumberLux, my grandfather requested to talk to me in a private room. So, despite wanting to greet more guests and looking for Tysha, I did what Grandpa told me to do. In my mind, I already had a hint that this was a serious and urgent matter. “Is there something you aren’t telling me?” That was what Grandpa asked me as soon as we were alone in a private room. My heart throbbed so fast yet I kept myself collected. Damn! What's this all about? “I have nothing to hide,” I said with conviction despite the turmoil within me.
TYSHAAm I really going to be the billionaire’s wife? Everything still felt surreal. When Rue finally got down on one knee and popped the question, I swear my heart skipped a beat. For a moment, I was frozen, not quite believing what was happening. It was like time stood still as I processed the moment.At first, I'll admit, I had my doubts. I mean, after I talked to his grandfather, that was when I realized that I answered his call and that he heard everything I said. Like gosh! What if he no longer proposed to me after I declined his grandfather’s offer to marry him? God knew how I barely had a sleep the night after that realization of mine. Although what I meant by my refusal was… I didn’t wanna marry Rue for money, I still felt scared that if ever he, indeed, heard our conversation, he would think I didn’t want to marry him in general. No. That was the complete opposite of what I was feeling. If I were to settle down, to build a life with someone, it would be with him.Marria
RUEI used to doubt love. I used to think that it was just a distraction, something that got in the way of real goals and messed with your head. Growing up, I saw too many relationships fall apart and people getting hurt, including my family. So, I promised myself I wouldn't let that happen to me. Focus on work, keep emotions in check—that was my rule.Then I met Tysha on that one special night in Eventide Cabaret.Everything changed. She wasn't like anyone else I'd ever known. There was something about her that drew me in. At first, I fought it. I told myself it was just a phase and that I'd get over it. But the more time I spent with her, the more I realized she wasn't a distraction. She was exactly what I needed—she set fire to my sleeping lust.“Every time I walk you to your room, it leads to lovemaking,” I whispered in between our kisses. Right after she accepted my not-so-spontaneous proposal, she pulled me into her room to continue our kissing session.“Next time, you won’t
RUE“I won’t marry Rue.”I couldn’t believe what I just heard. Tysha’s words echoed in my mind, bouncing around like they were trying to make sense but failing miserably.When she accidentally answered my call, I didn’t hang up, especially when I heard my grandfather’s voice talking to her. I was mad at Grandpa for offering Tysha money to marry me, but I stayed silent because I wanted to hear her answer. I never expected her answer would break me.“Our relationship is not a transaction, Mr. Colterzon. Just so you know. While I appreciate your concern for our future, marrying him should come from our hearts, not a financial incentive,” I heard Tysha continue. “So, no. I won’t marry him for money.”After that, I ended the call before she even noticed I was listening to her conversation with my grandfather.I felt a mix of emotions. I was angry at my grandfather for interfering, for thinking that money could solve everything. But Tysha’s words cut deeper. She didn’t want to marry me, eve
TYSHA“You wouldn’t be able to drive us home?” I asked Rue on the other line. I had just finished all my classes for the day when he called.“No. We just had an emergency meeting at the company. But I’ll send Fred,” he offered, but I immediately refused.“No need. I can drive us myself.”“Okay. Just tell the kids I’ll visit them later,” Rue said before ending the call.As I continued gathering my things to leave the faculty room, one of my co-teachers approached me with a curious look.Tysha, someone’s looking for you,” my co-teacher whispered, nodding toward the entrance. I glanced up from my stack of papers, my heart doing a little flip. Who could it be? A parent? Another teacher? “Huh? Really?” I tried to sound nonchalant, but my pulse quickened. The school day had been ordinary so far, and I wasn’t prepared for any surprises.“Yes. He’s waiting in the parking lot, with lots of convoys,” my co-teacher grinned, clearly enjoying my confusion. With my co-teacher's grin, the first
TYSHARue wanted to introduce our kids to his mother and grandfather and the thought of it made my stomach churn with anxiety. Like, gosh!I couldn't help but overthink the whole situation. His grandfather had always hated me, ever since I was with Bryse. He did everything in his power to separate us before. And now, after all this time, I was terrified that his hatred for me would extend to our children.What if Rue’s grandfather took one look at them and saw nothing but a reminder of my past mistakes? What if he couldn't see them for the wonderful kids they are and only saw my flaws? The idea of my kids being judged or rejected because of my history was unbearable.I kept imagining different scenarios, each worse than the last. Would his grandfather's anger flare up the moment he laid eyes on them? Would he blame them for the messy past I had with his family? I could almost see the disapproval in his eyes, and feel the tension in the room.Rue seemed confident that things would be f
TYSHA“This is their picture?” Rue asked as I handed him the photo album, filled with pictures of our kids. After they had fallen asleep, he had suddenly asked to see some photos of them. Luckily, I had been making albums of their milestones.“Yeah, right after they were born,” I said proudly, sitting beside him on the couch and joining him in looking at the pictures.Rue carefully stared at each photo, his eyes filled with a mix of wonder and regret, as if trying to relive the moments he had missed. Each image seemed to pull him deeper into a past he wasn't part of, yet desperately wished he had been.He traced a finger over a picture of their first birthday, his expression softening. “Who was with you?” Rue asked quietly, his voice barely above a whisper.“My parents,” I answered simply, trying to decipher what was going through his mind.“Just them?” He glanced at me, seeking confirmation.“Yes. Just them.”“How about Charles?” he asked.I thought he might be jealous, but when I l
RUEIn a short amount of time, I became super attached to the twins. Every day without them felt like a lost chance to be their real father. That's why I found myself constantly at Tysha's house, trying to make up for lost time.I longed to bond with them, to be a presence in their lives that they could rely on. It wasn't easy, knowing that I missed out on so much, but I was determined to do better.I held out the hairbrush when my daughter Addison came out of the bathroom. Her hair was damp and clinging to her small shoulders.As usual, I was in their house again, wanting to spend more time with my children."Can I brush your hair?" I asked, hoping she'd say yes.“Okay, Daddy.” Addison nodded, a shy smile on her face, and took a seat on the stool in front of me.I took a deep breath, aware of the importance of this gesture, and of the trust she was placing in me.As I began to brush, I was careful, mindful of every stroke."Am I doing this right?" I asked, watching her reaction in th
TYSHAOkay. If I was having fun earlier about how Rue shut Celeste’s bitchy mouth, I was no longer enjoying it now.“Is it true, Tysha? You’re dating Mr. Colterzon? The billionaire?!” asked one of my coworkers. “Err…” I stammered, unable to find the right words immediately.First of all, I didn’t feel the need to tell the truth to them. Second, to be honest, I didn’t really know the answer to that. Am I dating Rue again? We used to date but does co-parenting with him count as dating?“How about Charles, Ma’am Tysha? Did you two break up already?” Another question was thrown at me. It was Rupert who asked this time. The faculty room had turned into chaos the moment I walked in after finishing my classes.Even though Celeste kept her mouth shut after what Rue said to her, the news still spread like wildfire. Fortunately, before I had to say something, Madeline came into the faculty room. "Everyone," she addressed the room sternly, "what's all this commotion? Where is your professio
TYSHASince Rue had insisted on driving us to school, and I couldn’t help but feel a little bit nervous. I’m sure it would spark a new rumor about me and gosh! But yeah, I must comply. This would be nothing compared to the six years I’ve taken away from him.As I told my kids about what their father planned on doing, Aiden and Addison were already perched by the window, their noses pressed against the glass, waiting for their father.Then it arrived. Rue’s car glided to a stop in front of our house, sleek and attention-seeking because of its vibes that were screaming ‘wealth.’ It was the kind of luxury car you’d see in magazines. But what can I say? The father of my kids is a billionaire so…“It’s Daddy!” Aiden and Addison said in chorus as their eyes grew wide with wonder. They rushed out the door, their school bags forgotten for a moment, as they circled the car with open-mouthed awe.I watched them.“Good morning, buds! Ready for school?” Rue greeted them with the same enthusiasm a
