"How did you manage to sleep at night Reid, the fact that you lied to me?" I saw the shock in his luminescent eyes, the face of the man I love, yet chose to hurt me. "Becca.....I planned to tell you, believe me, I do" he retorted with the cracking in his voice, and that moment I felt the breaking and twisting in my heart. "You're a pheromone machine and your count of women you played with is higher than the number of capillary vessels in your entire body, I refused to be on the list" The pain is evident on his gorgeous face, he gazed at me, I could sense the nagging feeling inside of me, however, I pushed the thoughts in the back of my head. "Becca, you got it all wrong, the predicament you have between me and Liz is nonsense!" he snapped, the intensity of anger in his voice was tormenting. "I've seen enough Reid, you changed women more frequently than a leopard changed its spots, pity me for thinking that you and I can be happy, this is the last time I'm allowing myself to be stupid." Becca lost her family in a tragic accident years ago, trying to cope with the sadness of being alone, making her parents proud in any way possible. Nothing matters and bothers her except work, until her new boss Reid Alonzo start provoking her with his handsome face and arrogant attitude. How can she manage to ignore the sight of a man that can make her fall in love and live a happy life? What if she finds out that Reid Alonzo has an ultimate secret involving the lost of her family, and the reason he wants Becca in his life is all about guilt? Can Becca say "Her No" to love?
View MoreThe day passed as quickly as I expected. I haven't heard from Reid. No calls or text messages. Relief and worry filled my heart, so it was merely sex for him. I have so many what-ifs about what happened between us. "Hey babe, breakfast? Gio pulled me from myself, thinking. He has a plate of bacon, eggs, and fried rice with hot coffee in a mug. I smiled at how thoughtful this man is. I gazed at him. "Wow, babe, thanks, you are truly the sweetest of them all." I sweetly blunted out. "Of them all? Why is there someone besides me?" My heart suddenly beat faster and faster; Reid's face popped in my head out of the blue "No, of c
Reid is not someone to disappoint in this physical matter. He lowered his head farther to my breasts, kneading one with a skilled hand while pulling the other into his mouth. I shuddered, the sensation turning my blood hot and cold and making sweat trickle down every part of my skin. When he was nowhere near my breasts, he still moved into my abdomen, licking his way to my entrance. He felt the urgency, felt it in me too. He was not one to move slowly. I was more than grateful for that. Reaching my clit, he took it roughly into his mouth and nipped it. I moaned then, unable to stifle the sound inside. And began thrashing with rising orgasm when he teased me to no end. He then inserted two fingers inside me, pumping in and out, making me create a small pool on the couch. Realizing I was near the edge, he drew his fingers out and straightened up.
The wedding night was cut shorter than I believe it would. Gio didn't say a thing about the kiss, so I guess there's nothing much to worry about. Gio went to see her sick mom again. He asked me if we could stay for the next two weeks here. I decided to say yes; who am I to say no to my boyfriend, who has a dying mom in the hospital bed. I called my direct boss to extend my vacation leave. Gio left last night to catch the earliest train to visit his mom. My phone beeped at once, so I snatched my phone on the countertop; it might be Gio checking me. Hey Cara Mia, I miss you… The endearment caught me off guard; I almost jumped, reading the message. I'm sure it's Reid. I'm so hesitant to reply. I made my way downstairs. We checked out at the hotel since Sierra is off on her honeymoo
I knocked on Sierra's room; today is the big day. She's getting married, and as her maid of honor, I needed to be beside her. "Hey, beautiful, feeling okay?" I asked her sweetly. "I'm uneasy, Bec. Is it normal to feel like this before the wedding?" Of course, I wouldn't know I had never been married before. But I need to lift her spirit. "I wouldn't know that, but all I know is, your soon-to-be husband loves you, Sierra; he adores you, nothing to be worried about." She gazed at me, eyes teary. "Thanks, Bec; you know how it means to me, right?"
We arrived at the airport around six in the morning. Gio needs to visit His sick mother, so He left me here to wait for Sierra. Nothing much changed. The only fact that I'm back is making me a little anxious. His face, His eyes, everything about Reid Alonzo is making me uncomfortable. What if I bump into Him somewhere? What will I say to Him? Can I even say Hi? Or Hello? The image of His perfect face is all I see when I close my eyes. I wouldn't say I like this—the feeling of wanting, longing to see Him again. I dialed Sierra's number, but Her phone couldn't be reached. I decided to leave my things in the baggage area and will try to get some coffee first. I made my way to ask airport personnel where I could get coffee. He told me that food and beverages are located on the fift
I was a total wreck when I left. How could I be such a fool for letting Reid hurt me this way? Yes, that's right Becca makes sure you will forget about everything. About how he makes you feel, about the kisses you both shared, about the love you both could have felt. It is officially over, but how can something that feels so good can feel so bad too? "Champagne Ma'am?" The flight attendant brought me back from deep thinking. "No. Thank you." I left him and I left everything behind because of him. I felt the tears slowly filling my eyes. If I close my eyes now I know I will only
I filed a temporary leave of absence, after what happened last time, I can't give my full attention to work, and that's unfair. I already emailed Rina to process my resignation. I understand it's a bit unexpected but I've been with Manhannah creative firm and design, for several years, and I think it's high time for me to grow with another company, given the situation Reid and I have. Sitting here in an Italian restaurant near my apartment, like the old days eating lunch alone, my phone rang so I picked it up seeing the register name on it, Sierra is calling, "Hey, Bec are you alright? I heard what happened, are you leaving me alone in the company? Don't you want to settle it with Reid first?" I think about what Sierra mentioned, but Reid is nowhere to see, he ev
I was told to get a few more days to rest before coming back to work, Reid insisted on making sure that I stay in bed. There is no room arguing with him about it, so I let it slide and have his way, he's concerned about me, I'm grateful for that. Now that is over I'm excited to come into the office, or I'm much more excited to see Reid, oh boy how I missed him, these last days with him were the happiest days of my life. I took a shower and made sure that I used the body scrub Sierra gave me, picked a pantsuit for the outfit today, pulled my hair up for a nice hair bun, and I put a little shimmer in my eye lids and some light nude lipstick. This is the first time I have dressed up before going to work. Well, I want to look my best after all Reid is there.
I wasn't so sure how long that kiss lasted, all I'm certain of is it was passionate and heartfelt. The feeling of falling in love arose within me. I knew this feeling before with Gio, but that was all in the past, and what I feel for Reid is something bigger, like a force of life wanting me to give in. Reid makes me weak and gives me butterflies in my stomach every time our eyes meet. He never said anything about us, or about how he feels towards me, but actions speak louder than words. The rest of the employees of Manhannah creative and design arrived today, we are all starting the project that Reid and Rina planned to make big this year. "Bec!"
"It rained all night." I murmured to myself after opening my eyes, I find it hard to get up in the mornings. How can someone lose the longing for life? I look around to see my cozy room. The pictures of my mom and dad still hang on the wall and the sensation of them long gone lingers to the very core of my being. The sunlight coming through my window makes the room warmer. Living independently for several years now, but the memories of losing my family still haunt me every day. Night after night I will find myself waking up in the middle of my sleep flashing back the faces of my loved ones gone forever like the accident happened yesterday. The phone keeps ringing while I'm brushing my teeth. I have no c...
