Saturday came quick.
It was just what I needed after working all week and stressing about a new client. Ethan had been equally busy, so he didn't have time to bother me, much to my relief. After that phone call, I felt flustered every time I looked at him. I kept imagining his hands all over my body just like he said I would.
"Don't do this, Ethan," I whispered as he broke our kiss. I was shaking with anger and helplessness. My body felt hot. He untucked my shirt and slid his hand inside, then caressed my body."Why not?" the bastard smirked and pinched my nipples. He didn't care to look at the hatred in my eyes."St
Ethan gently pressed his lips on mine and sucked on my lower lip. I tried to move my face away, but he roughly grabbed my face and turned me toward him."Let go of me, asshole," my voice sounded hoarse and strange. My nerve was wrecked. It was a mistake coming here.Ethan slammed me against the
Ethan dropped on my side, panting. Our bodies were drenched in sweat. I wanted to say something...anything, but I could hardly breathe. I felt like my body was melting with pleasure."Don't move," he said and got up first. I heard the shower running in the bathroom. "Go get in the shower. I'll help you clean up," he said.
"Do I look like a slut?" Ally asked me and twirled around in her dress."Um...no?" I said."Darn! I thought this dress was slutty enough," she pouted.
Ethan's POV"Pfft...your's my ass. In your dreams Miller," Corey pushed me off, but he was smiling."Come have a drink with me," I suggested.
Ethan's POV"What do you mean you can't do anything about it?" I shouted at the police officer even though I knew I shouldn't have."Sir, please, lower your voice," the officer said grimly. "As we said, we can't declare someone is missing until 48 hours had passed, especially when that someone i
A sudden bright light hit my eyes, making me squint. The bed felt unfamiliar and cold. The last thing I remember was being at the reunion. I had excused myself to go to the bathroom and...I snapped my eyes open as I remembered what happened in the bathroom. A man grabbed me and choked me until I saw stars and descended into darkness. I thought I had died. Wait...did I die?
I closed my eyes and waited for the pain. I guess they don't know I'm left-handed as they were going for the right hand. So I get to keep the hand I use the most. Suckers.Wait, what am I thinking? I was still losing a hand, so this was still a bad situation."Stop it! Let him go!"
"Sorry, what? You're being auctioned?" Ethan squinted his eyes and frowned. "Yup," I flashed him a toothy grin. "Fun, right?" "Absolutely not. Under no circumstances, that you are allowed to date another guy," Ethan shook his head. It has been six months since we've been dating and living together. We somehow managed to keep it a secret from the company. Since I was his employee and he was my boss, I was not allowed to date him. The company was hosting a charity event to fund the homeless shelter and one of the biggest events was a human auction. And I was one of the men chosen as a candidate to be auctioned off because let's face it, I am adorable. "Ethan, I'm not dating anoth
Ethan's POV"Can I put it in?" Corey said and looked at me with doe eyes. How am I supposed to say no to those eyes?This is unfair. So unfair."Hell, Corey. Why are you putting me through this? I told you I've never done this before," I whined."How would you know you don't like it unless you tried. You said you didn't hate it when I put my fingers in and played with your ass. In fact, judging from your moaning and screaming my name, it looked like you enjoyed it quite a bit," he said.True. It felt weird at first, but then I got used to his fingers in my hole, and it felt really good. But still..."That's different. Your fingers aren't as big as your, you know what," I shook my head.Corey sighed. "Alright, fine. I won't put it in." He kissed me. He licked and sucked on my tongue, and warmth spread through my body. I felt his hard-on pressed against my stomach.Oh, what the heck."F...fine. Go ahead and put it in. But
Things went back to normal. Ethan and I started dating. Still not publicly, as Anthony was still in the picture.In the office, we pretend like we have a typical boss and employee relationship. Behind the closed door, we ravaged each other like wild beasts.But I wasn't completely satisfied. I didn't get redemption, and he still had the upper hand on everything about me. But tonight, it's going to change. I'm going to show him who the boss is. I was supposed to see him tonight, so I mentally prepared myself. Ethan wouldn't know what hit him.I invited him over to my apartment and waited for him. I kept looking at the clock. My heart racing. I almost fell off the couch when I heard the doorbell ring. Why was a so nervous? It should be Ethan who feels nervous."Corey, hey," Ethan greeted me with that husky voice that made my skin tingle. I was ready for him tonight.I grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him towards me, then pressed my lips on his
On the way home, I told myself over and over again. Ethan was no good for me. Ethan was toxic. He was a brute. He was selfish. He didn't care about my feelings and did whatever he wanted to me. I should stay away from him no matter what. He was no good for me.That's what I told myself, and I tried to stay away from him but failed miserably. Seeing him tonight changed everything. He looked so dejected about his father's death even though his father treated him like shit. I could sense his loneliness from across the room. He had no one left. Then a sudden realization hit me. I didn't want to be without him anymore. I love him. I wanted to hold him and tell him he had me. I was dumb enough to let him sway me again, happily so.I left with Charles because I needed to talk to him first. I couldn't leave Charles hanging anymore. He deserved
Ethan's POV"It wasn't your fault," Corey said and patted me on the back. I was still in shock as I watched the paramedics confirmed my father's death and took him away.I knew I didn't literally kill him, but I still felt guilty for saying being so harsh and driving my father to have a heart attack. Charles had been quiet, and stone faced the entire time they came and took his body away. I realized this might be hard on him as he was his father too. Charles never got his closure from him. He died before Charles had the chance to change his opinion about him. He never got to hear him say he was accepted just as he was."Are you okay?" I asked Charles. He looked at me with a grim expression."I didn't mean for him to die. I just wanted
I was curious to know why Charles was at the office. I thought after that day they'll never speak to each other again, but it seemed like they were on good terms almost.I didn't ask Ethan about it. I've been avoiding him as much as possible, but being this close to him wasn't easy, and my heart hammered against my chest every time I felt him close-by.I agreed to go out with Charles since I promised him I would. Maybe he was just the distraction I needed."Where are we going?" I asked as he was acting mysterious about it."Eh...about that...you'll probably hate me if I tell you," he let out a nervous chuckle.I didn't like where this was going. "Why?" I looked at him suspiciously. "
Ethan's POVI saw Corey on my way in but didn't say anything. He looked awful. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked slightly disheveled. Did he stay up all night drinking?I wanted to ask but held myself back. According to the contract, I had to keep personal conversation to a minimum. I hated this stupid contract. I want to rip it to shreds then burn it. But I promised him.I went into my office and called my secretary. "Send Mr. Price some fresh coffee at his desk," I instructed her. I thought about Charles. I couldn't believe he was the same Charlie I remembered from my childhood. I couldn't believe he was my brother. I had to make it right with him. It wasn't his fault that he had a shitty father like mine. I'd be hopelessly angry too if I was him.
I came back to New York without looking back. I needed to be away from Ethan and all that craziness and start my life over just the way I wanted in the first place.I don't think Ethan lied to me when he said he loved me. But that doesn't mean his decisions about me were the right decisions. Everything he did was centered around what he wanted. He never once asked what I wanted."Don't do this."Ethan said as I placed my resignation letter on his desk."I need to work somewhere else. It'll be awkward to work under you after what we've been through," I. Protested."What if we go back to the beginning and stick with regular flirting?" he smirked.
Okay, I know I've bragged about being awesome and how everyone wants me, but I was still shocked at Charles's confession."Err...I don't understand," I interjected."You can't have Corey. He is mine," Ethan barked."Actually, I'm an independent human being," I raised my hand to share my input, but they seem to be too busy glaring at each other to hear me. Jerks.Charles looked at me. The anger in his eyes disappeared momentarily, and his gaze turned gentle. "This is not the first time I've seen you, Corey. I didn't develop my attraction overnight. I've been secretly watching Ethan and my so called father since we were teenagers so I could find a way to destroy them." Charles sighed."But then I saw you, Corey. You were so pure back then, doing everything to make Ethan happy even though he treated you like trash. I watched him ridicule you for being different. He was a coward and still is," he said."Watch your mouth, asshole. You don't know
