His words felt like a brick settled on top of her. At least he was honest. She could give him that. She responded the only way she knew how.“I’m not asking for your love.” He let out a chuckle.“Sooner or later, all you women want love.” she chuckled back at him but couldn’t think of anything to say. “Maybe you don’t want love today, and maybe not tomorrow. But you will someday.”“And who’s to say you and I are going to be together someday?” she said and he just let out another chuckle.“I can guarantee you we won’t be together someday. I don’t love, Lisa. I take. I take what others are willing to give to me, but I can’t give anything in return. It’s not in me.” she touched his shoulders, gently massaging them. “I am not in love with you, Mason but glad to know where your heart lies on the topic.” She lied. He gently caressed her face and his arms tucked against her sides and his legs tangled with hers, the coarse hair on his calves stimulating her hypersensitive skin. She felt sad
“I’m traveling to Paris next week on business,” he said casually. Lisa’s head came up at her desk.“Oh? How long will you be gone?” Was it disappointment he heard in her voice or was it merely wishful thinking on his part? He smiled.“You’re coming with me.” Her eyes widened.“Really?”“Yes. We leave Monday afternoon. I assume you have a passport?”“Yes, of course.” There was excitement in her voice and her entire face had lit up. “We’ll spend the weekend together and I’ll take you shopping for anything you may need for the trip,” he said generously. She sobered and her gaze dropped for a moment. He couldn’t tell if she looked guilty or if she was merely avoiding his eyes. His brows furrowed as he continued to stare at her. Waiting for what she’d reacted to.“I have plans Friday night,” she said in a husky voice. “They were made for a while now. I can’t just cancel.” He was prepared to pursue her further by asking her what plans she had. He absolutely had the right to do so. He didn't
Amber tugged Lisa back a step and then leaned in by her ear so Lisa could hear her. “I’m going home with Steve afterward. Is that okay? Will you be okay getting back to the apartment by yourself? He said he’ll get a cab for you.” Lisa’s eyebrows rose.“You sure?” Amber nodded. “We’ve been talking for a while now. I really like him.”“Then go. Just be careful, okay?” Amber smiled and nodded. They found their table, ordered drinks and waited. The frantic beat of the music invaded Lisa’s body and she found herself wiggling in time as they stood by their table. Trina joined in and soon the girls had their own section of the dance floor right at their table. Before their waitress arrived with their drinks, two guys came over, their smiles charming, and began talking to Trina and Jennifer.Lisa chose to remain at the back of the table, where a railing provided a view of the dance floor. She didn't want to showcase her search in any way, and she also didn't want to deal with any awkward men.
Lisa felt as though someone had stuck an ice pick directly through one of her eyeballs when she first opened her eyes. Mason was standing in her bedroom doorway when she groaningly moved away from the light source coming through the window. He was wearing jeans and a T-shirt, and as his eyes drifted down her body, he had his hands buried in his pockets. She wasn't sure if her intense reaction to the hot-as-hell sight was due to how infrequently she saw Mason wearing jeans or if he simply looked amazing in denim.“You feel terrible, don’t you?” She didn’t pretend to misunderstand what he meant. She nodded, the motion hurting her head all the more. He pushed off the doorway and walked to the bed, settling on the edge next to her. “The car is waiting out front. Get dressed.” Her brow furrowed.“Where are we going?” She didn’t want to move. She wanted about another six hours of sleep. Maybe then she’d wake and her head wouldn’t hurt so badly.“My apartment,” he said shortly. “You have fiv
“Did you think I wouldn’t allow you to go? I know you have friends.”“Is that why you’re angry? I don’t know why I didn’t just say exactly what I was doing, Mason. Maybe I did worry you wouldn’t want me to go.”“Hell no, that isn’t why I’m furious,” he bit out. “I get a call from my driver because he was never called to pick you up. You weren’t at your apartment so I could only think you’d taken a cab. You and your friends, out to a club. No protection. Getting into some cab with God knows who and then coming home drunk, alone, in a cab, at two o’clock in the damn morning.” She blinked in complete surprise. That wasn’t at all what she thought he’d say.“You don't need my permission to leave the house or for me to restrict you, Lisa. It’s about you being careful. It concerns the fact that I was utterly concerned since I didn't know where you were or if you were safe. I couldn't even send the driver to wait on you because you weren't returning my calls or texts. Hell, I was thinking you
Mason began to ease back when she had settled, almost completely withdrawing before forcing his way back inside. He moved methodically and slowly. Tender. He never lost control or got impatient. His balls pressed to her pussy each time he reached his depth as he stroked in and out.“I’m going to come inside you, Lisa. I want you to be very still and continue to pleasure yourself.” She was so close that she had to stop touching herself momentarily or she was a goner. Mason’s thrusts increased in speed and force, but he didn’t overwhelm her and he wasn’t rough. Then she felt the first hot jet as he exploded inside her.More pumped against her skin, at her opening, and inside as he withdrew in the next split second. And more till it finally slipped down the inside of her leg from the opening. He then re-entered her, thrusting forcefully and deeply to push his semen down even further. Even when he had arrived, he continued to stroke in and out for several lengthy seconds. She failed in he
“Oh my God, you do love her, don’t you?” Mason stood, his anger sharp and explosive.“That’s enough, Sarah. You will not say another word. Lisa is my employee. Please stop embarrassing yourself by coming here all the time.” Sarah made a sound of mockery.“I was stupid thinking we could put everything behind us and make things work. I never had a chance, did I, Mason?”“That’s where you’re wrong,” he said in a clipped tone. “I was faithful to you, Sarah. I would have always been faithful. I was committed to our relationship. I gave you everything you could ever want.”“Mason baby...”“Don’t call me that.”“What would you prefer?”“I’d rather not see or hear from you.”“Why not?”“Don’t fucking think this is some kind of joke.” His mouth tightened.“I know it is not, but we know each other. We get along well. Very, very well. We had great sex what do you see in that girl who is barely an adult.”“I’m not fucking you again!” he snapped.“Why not?”“Stop asking me that!”“It’s a valid que
Mason was brooding and silent the entire flight to Paris. But then he’d been that way ever since Sarah had departed his office. While Lisa wasn't precisely sure what had happened, Mason had made it clear to his staff and the security that Sarah would never be permitted back inside the premises. As he and Lisa departed for the airport with their luggage already packed, he was gruff and short.As they boarded, Lisa was more than glad to maintain the silence they had shared during the ride. She leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes, and as soon as she could, she took out her iPod and earphones. She was worn out from spending the weekend with Mason and the long flight. She was in for a hard day if she didn't go to bed right away.They were landing in Paris at eight in the morning local time, which meant it would be fourteen hours before she’d be able to sleep. She wasn’t certain why she was going. Mason was meeting with potential bidders, the top three candidates he thought would win t
“Mason?” Lisa muttered in a whisper. “W..what is going on here?” She asked, looking around fearfully. “Where are Chris and my friends?“We are here.” They chorused, stepping out into the light from their hiding place.“What is all this?” She asked, breathing heavily. “Did you all know about this?”Mason swallowed, shifting on his knee. “Baby, I know you are confused and probably angry right now, but I promise it was all my doing. I made them join hands with me. I am sorry.” He held her gaze.“Mason. This is... I wasn’t expecting this.”“I know. And I know messed up, and I feel really dumb about it. I should never have treated you the way I did. You're absolutely right. You deserve someone who will always fight for you, and I want to be that person, if you'll give me another chance.She didn't know what to say or how to answer. Tears filled her eyes, making them feel hot, and she was afraid they might spill over.“I love you a lot,” he continued very strongly. “I love you so much that

“Have I ever told you how jealous I am of you?” Desire asked Lisa as they stepped out of the shop closing for the day.“What do you mean?” She asked.Desire pointed at Mason who was standing by the car with a flower in hand. “There. You went from Jaylen to the utmost breathtaking man who doesn’t mind withstanding the pain of nature just to see you. How do you do that?”Lisa rolled her eyes playfully. “Don’t be silly. I will see you tomorrow. Bye!” She waved at her.Mason raised his body slightly and stretched out the flower to her. Lisa collected it gingerly. She had thought he would stop coming after she ignored him to go with Jaylen. Also, none of her friends were willing to tell her what ensued between them and Mason when he brought the flowers over.He has been trying really hard to make her see him by indulging in little gestures. Lisa wasn’t certain about the next step to take with him yet. There are still many doubts about what he intends to offer her. The love is evident, but
Mason shifted backwards wondering what the ladies would do to him. Amber is the only one he is familiar with.“Is everything okay ladies? Is there a problem?” He asked.“There might be after we have this discussion,” Amber replied. “These are also Lisa’s friends and I doubt you knew that. Meet Trina, Jennifer and Jade. Guys, this is Mason.”“Nice to meet you.” He said waving at them.“He does look breathtaking.” Jennifer murmured unable to hide her delight.“Smells nice too.” Trina added.“He is right in front of us. Can we behave?” Amber rebuked.“Come and have a sit.” Jade said to Mason. “When Lisa said you were coming, we thought it would give us a good chance to talk to you. So, you have nothing to worry about. We just want to have a conversation as adults.”Mason nodded cautiously sitting on the couch. Just in case he would need to bolt. Women aren’t nice when they choose to gang up against a person. He would hate to be their victim.“Will you like something to drink?” Jennifer a
“Lisa!” Her friends screamed as they hugged her tightly.Lisa laughed heartily at the sight of her friends. It felt like forever since she had last seen them.Just as the girls had promised they came down to the valley to spend some time with her. Each one taking a leave of absence from their workplace.“I am so happy to see you. You look well.” Trina said, caressing Lisa’s cheeks. “Must be the works of a certain mister.” She winked, causing the others to laugh along.Amber held onto her hand like she feared she would disappear. “I have missed seeing your face. Please, Lisa, never leave without prior notice ever again. Nothing feels the same without you around.”“That is so true.” Jennifer and Jade chorused.“I miss you all so much.” Lisa cooed as she lunged at them again. “Come on in you all. I have a lot to tell you.”The girls seemed eager to hear what Lisa had to say. But she took her time instead, served them drinks and allowed them to settle before dropping the bombshell.“Mason
Lisa’s first instinct at the sight of Mason was to slam the door in his face, but her hand slid off the door instead and she stumbled backward in utmost shock.“W…what are you doing here? How did you get here?” She stuttered.Mason took two cautious steps into the house to see if she would yell at him to go back. When she didn’t utter a word, he invited himself in and shut the door.“Lisa, listen, I am sorry if my being here is pissing you off, but I haven't been able to do anything without you. I know…..”His words didn’t get to leave his lips as Lisa jumped at him kissing him aggressively. Mason lost all focus and wrapped his arms around her tightly, returning the energy. They charged at each other like their entire life depended on it. He ripped off the dress she had on and in less than a second their clothes were scattered around the room.“Baby…..” Mason called out panting.“Don’t say anything.” She let out a shaky voice. Her pupils dilated with lust.He harkened to her words and
“What the hell do you think you are doing here?” Chris questioned, surprised to see Mason standing casually next to his car in front of the restaurant he had come to have lunch with his business partners.Mason held up a tight smile. “I…I was just passing by and caught a glimpse of your car.”“Cut out the bullshit and own up to what you have done.”He huffed. “Fine, I had you followed from the office. You didn’t respond to my calls.”Chris frowned in displeasure. “What is all of this about, Mason? Do I have to get a restraining order for you? You have become more of a pest with each passing day. My answer still remains the same. Stop being a nuisance for goodness sake.”His words pelted Mason like a burning pebble, but he didn’t let that deter him.“You know what I am asking of you won’t cost you anything, Chris. Why won’t you give it to me?” Mason asked.He looked frustrated. “Why are you so adamant? Why does everything have to always go your way, Mason? Lisa is no doubt clear that s

Jaylen blinked in confusion at Lisa’s reaction. He can’t seem to fathom the very reason she chose to go violent.“W…what did I do?” He stuttered.Lisa growled like a wounded animal. “You have done everything wrong. Don’t you dare ask me such dumb questions again. I am not the kind of person you will get just because your ego can’t take a rejection. Never ever!” She screeched. “Never cross my path again!”Saying her piece, she hastened her steps flagging down a cab to take her home. Lisa slammed the door shut as soon as she got into the house, almost like she feared Jaylen would come after her for putting her hands on him.Her eyes watered as she slipped to the floor feeling her entire body quiver. His words resounded in her ears like Mason’s. If she continues this way, she would be doomed for life. Nobody wants to hang around a bitter person like herself. At the same time, she knew men like Jaylen well enough to know that they think too highly of themselves and believe it is okay to l
