2021-09-18 07:55:13My new suit was a sight to behold. I had never seen such fine fabric in my entire life. I wanted to know the cost of such an outfit, but the only response I had gained from Kain was a hearty laugh and a sarcastic, “too much for you to afford.”
We had waited for the tailor to finish any adjustments and then left to continue our couple of hours of shopping. It surprised me that Kain shopped like a regular person. Or as near enough to it as one could be when surrounded by fans from both sides.
And every moment, he seemed to enjoy to the fullest. He loved the attention. The screaming women swooning over him. Even the men admired him and Kain paid their admiration back with friendly smiles, waves and playful winks.
Was this the type of thing he expected everyone to put up with, even if they weren’t too keen on dealing with the public so much? This was the face I knew him by most of

The journey back to the apartment building was awkward as my mind still tried to process what exactly had happened. It was one thing for Kain to invest time in getting me new outfits to start my career, but it was a whole other ball game to have a new place to live that wasn’t shared between hundreds of other people trying to use the same facilities. I had grown so used to the poor life that I wasn’t sure I was ready to live on my own.On arrival, we took a detour to the main hall of the apartment building. The entrance was used by those who were not exclusive to the top floors. There, the receptionist handed me my personal keycard before letting us know that my stuff had been brought here already. I was curious how much of my stuff had actually made it here, or if they had even got the right room in the hospice.My room was on the floor below Kain, right next to Drake, apparently.Kain had left me and Drake to our own devices

“Pay attention everyone!” The loud voice startles me as I realise I’ve been daydreaming a bit too much this morning. I didn’t get as much sleep last night as I had hoped I would. At first, the silence had been too much, that it felt like I had gotten lost in the Outlands. That was until the sound of bumping and crashing started on the floor above me. The only apartment up there was Kain’s.I panicked at first. Not knowing if he was in danger or had fallen over. I was about ready to find Drake and go up to help Kain out… that was until the loud moans started. Confusion had filled my mind at first. Then slowly, I realised what was going on up there. Kain had a woman friend over and now I was paying the price.I tried everything to ignore it. To drown it out with my pillow over my head. Even tried to listen to my music with my headphones on. Nothing worked to quell the sound of Kain’s

It was as Skyler had expected. Kain had me in his office not long after lunch was over, rather than have me join in with the rest of the companions. This stirred up a lot of murmurs and whispers about me. They were curious about why I was treated differently from the other newbies here.Curious about the answer myself, I finally plucked up the courage and asked, “Mister Jones, why am I not learning with the other Companions?” I wait for him to reply, as he has his attention on his laptop as usual. The two of us are alone currently, which makes me anxious. Drake doesn’t seem to be anywhere near the office at all, making me wonder what he gets up to during work hours.The typing pauses, showing that my question has distracted Kain. I dare a glance his way, only to see him staring at me with a raised brow and a nonplussed look on his face. He sighs, closing his laptop and then standing

Finally, the day of long training sessions with Kain is over. My body is aching beyond comparison to all the exercises he had me do. Dancing, acting, even singing, he had me do everything, sometimes repeatedly. When he had said he would train me himself, he had not been joking. I knew he was capable of many acts as a man who once was a Companion himself, but today was utterly ridiculous.Even now, in the limo ride home, Kain is drilling me on everything I’ve learned today. All I want to do is sleep. How he has so much energy still is beyond me.A sigh from the man has me opening my eyes and glancing aside at Kain. I’m about to open my mouth to say something but Kain gets there first. “You’ve done well today,” he tells me and I think I saw him smiling at me, though by the time I blink and look properly, the smile has gone.“Thanks,” I replied quietly. I instinctively wait for him to make some kind o

A few weeks have gone by since my training with Kain began and although I still have a long way to go, I have learned how a Companion acts, talks and even walks from Kain. It almost surprises me how much he actually knows about these things. I want to say that he simply knows because of his status as the CEO, but the way he talks; it is as though he himself lived that life.I want to know more about Kain more than I ever thought I might. I just can’t figure out if this feeling of mine is purely out of respect or something more.All I have figured out so far is that whenever we’re alone, Kain seems to grow just that bit more gentle with me, that kinder, but as soon as Drake or anyone else is around, he goes back to his sarcastic and belittling quips.Allowing my thoughts to wander over the last couple of weeks, I lay down in bed, facing the ceiling. This new bed is enormous and very comfortable, but I’m still not used to t

“Are you listening to me, Mister Smith?”Oh, I am listening, Kain… but I can’t look at you after what I did last night. I’m too ashamed of myself. “Y-yes, Mister Jones,” I reply, hoping he doesn’t hear the anxious feelings of guilt in my voice. Today we’ve spent the day preparing for tonight. It isn’t a big party, but Kain says that it’ll be my first journey into the life of a Companion, so I have to be dressed and ready for the occasion.I dare a sneaky glance in Kain’s direction. He is dressed to impress, as am I in my new outfit that he had brought me a couple of weeks ago. He looks irresistible and I have no doubts women are going to swarm him at this party. His outfit easily shows off his well-defined muscles and form. I quickly look away again before my eyes wander down to his other parts.“Good,” Kain’s voice continues a

This gathering was bigger than I ever could have imagined. Kain had told me it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, but if this wasn’t the biggest party, then I fear knowing what one of those larger gatherings is like! Maybe by the time I get to go to one, I’ll have grown accustomed to seeing so many suits in one place. For now, I can’t help but gawk at the whole thing before me. Bright dazzling chandeliers hang down above us, while enormous fountains of melted chocolate sit on tables surrounded by a buffet of food. Servers in cute outfits walk around carrying alcoholic drinks, offering them to whoever wants a drink, though there are also non-alcoholic drinks being served too. I feel Kain’s hand land on my shoulder, which sends a warm feeling deep down in my gut. I glance up at him and he offers me a swift but reassuring smile. “Stay by my side for a while. Use my name to promote yourself. It shall help,” he says quietly so that no one else can hear

It doesn’t take me long to find a couple of girls that look like they might enjoy my company. They’re not companions, but they belong in the entertainment industry too. They’re background dancers, so no one is too important that I’ll step on any toes by trying to court them. Seeing as Kain has been teaching me some dance moves, we have a few things in common to talk about, which helps me find an opening topic. Outside of dancing, however, I’m not sure how much I want to get to know these girls. They’re nice enough, but I have zero interest in having any kind of affair with them. I wonder if they were hoping for that when I came up to them? Or maybe they’re glad that I’m not even talking about that kind of offer? It’s hard to tell since everyone seems to hide something tonight. I noticed at first with that woman CEO but now I am seeing it everywhere I look. Bright cheerful smiles but glares whenever a back is turned… longing looks sent to those

I am not Your Love Story CH84
A year has passed since everything happened and although a lot has changed, things have also stayed the same. I’ve become well known for my musical skills now, but Kain has caved in and allowed me to perform in a few acting roles. He has no more excuses to keep me to himself, outside of him mentoring me, as I have already proven I am one of the best Lotus Pond Entertainment has. However, I still have a long way to go before I am as popular as Kain used to be, so my promotion to the Face of the Company is still a long way off. Today, however, is the day Kain finally tells the entire world publicly about his plans for the company and me in particular. I have never felt so nervous and anxious as I do right now at this extravagant press conference. Out of all of my training, all of my public appearances, nothing has been so hyped up as this moment. It feels like everyone in the world is watching us right now, and they probably are!
I am not Your Love Story CH83
Rose’s home is a place I never expected to find myself in, yet here I am with Kain, Drake, Rhiana, and even Wulf. I never thought I’d be happy to see him, but he has become a good friend, probably closer to me than Skyler, because he at least knows everything now, and I can trust him to keep it a secret. One day, I want to fill Skyler in too, but until Kain is ready to come out to the rest of the world, that isn’t an option. Wulf, much like Kain, prefers men but has openly flirted with women, to the point of being seen as a womanizer. The two have much in common but are very different people. I wish I could help Wulf find peace with himself over whoever hurt him, but all I can do is to be his friend and hope that’s enough. “You’re staring at me, Liam,” Wulf teases playfully, as he spots me looking in his direction. I blush faintly and look away. I don’t need him flirting with me while Kain is here! “S-sorry,” I mumble, looking at my lap

My whole body hurts from last night. There isn’t a part of me that doesn’t hurt. Even with Kain being overly gentle and preparing me beforehand, I still hurt. However, I wouldn’t change last night for anything. It was as perfect as things could have been. He wasn’t in one of his odd moods where he wanted to do strange things, instead, he was all gentle and loving towards me. Despite the aches I am in, I agreed to meet up with Wulf. After all, me not going back to his last night seemed to have worried him, even though he had received my text to tell him I would be safe. Besides, I probably should let him know that I’ve made up with the person who I like. Thankfully, Wulf agreed to meet me somewhere nearby and Kain has gone to work so that I do not have to worry about him getting jealous or clingy in front of Wulf. We should keep our make-up private until we’ve seen Malak Rose again. Once we’ve gotten him to back off, then

As soon as we get back to Kain’s apartment, his familiar scent fills my nose. I make sure Wulf knows I won’t be back tonight, as making him worry wouldn’t be fair at all. We may have started on the wrong foot, but he has become a friend during this entire ordeal. I’ve missed this place more than I thought I might, but I don’t get the chance to think much about our time apart as I find my back is pushed against the wall as soon as we lock the door behind us. Kain’s lips slam against mine, kissing me desperately. I can’t help but moan into his lips and wrap my arms around his neck. I’ve missed this so much that it hurts. I feel Kain’s hands lower down to my legs and hoist me up, causing my legs to wrap around his hips automatically. He breaks the kiss for a moment to mumble, “never leave me again, Liam. I can’t live without you at my side. These last few days have been awful.” I wiggle my nose at him in mock annoyan

Joy overflowed through my whole body, as everything I had wondered about Rhiana was confirmed by the two sitting across from me. She was indeed someone who preferred other women, and in fact, was planning on marrying her girlfriend of several years. “I started working here, just to get away from the hustle and bustle of a rich life, and to avoid my father. He often tries to drag me into his social parties to meet people,” Rhiana complained with a roll of her eyes. “This isn’t a glamorous life, but there are many people who love to spend cash on things they can’t touch, so I’m happy to get this sense of freedom.” “Your father is as old as mine. He should have retired a long time ago,” Kain says, shaking his head. He then takes another sip of his drink and then adds, “but why drag me involved in all this? Does he have money troubles?” “No, nothing like that. It might be my fault for avoiding this co

“Do you really hate me so much now?” The question Kain proposed to me had my heart pounding and aching so much that I felt dizzy and sick. Of course, I didn’t hate Kain! The problem wasn’t because I hated him, quite the opposite in fact! It was because I loved him so deeply, so hard, that it hurts to even see his face or hear his voice. “Sir, that isn’t helping at all. You’re just making him feel even more afraid,” Drake chided softly. “You don’t hate the boss, do you, Liam?” He then asked, his voice much softer. I shook my head slowly but refused to come out of my scrunched up position on the padded bench of the booth. It was a rather awkward position, but I couldn’t bring myself to look at anything around me. A sigh escaped Kain’s lips. It sounded like it relieved him to know I didn’t hate him. “Then you will not quit, right?” His question made me angry, but before I could shoot him a glare, he continued to say,

The flicker of the streetlight above my head is grinding my gears. I almost want to yell at the top of my voice for someone to come and fix the broken thing, but I don’t. I’ve already made a fool of myself once today, no reason to make such a thing known to the public too! I don’t know why Drake wanted to meet me here, of all places, but I can tell that this isn’t one of his usual hangouts. At least, none that he has ever taken me to before. The area is quite a distance away from where we work, to where I think we might even be closer to the Outskirts than anywhere near the city centre. The buildings are not quite falling apart, but they’ve certainly seen better days. That includes the annoying streetlight. Still, despite the almost rundown appearance, many people seem to come to this place. The sign gave little away about the type of hangout it was. All I could tell was that they named it, ‘The Moist Pussy’. I thought it was an odd nam

It has been almost a whole week now since I last saw Kain in person. It almost feels like he is avoiding me deliberately, much like I was doing to him. However, regardless if I am avoiding him or not, I can’t help but get even angrier at him for evading me for this long! Call me a hypocrite, but I don’t care at this point. He is such a jerk-face! I vow to myself, as soon as I see him, I am going to give him a piece of my mind! Maybe I’ll even go to his office and scold him! That’s an idea! However… the moment I get to his floor, I hesitate. I’m the one who ran out on him, crying no less. Now that I can see his office door, my anxiety has me unable to take another step forwards. What if he has already moved on and stopped caring about me? What if he has already met with this woman and she is all over him and I disturb them in the middle of something!? I can’t do this! I shake my head and turn around, darting back t
