Strolling into work, I feel on top of the world. Nothing can make my day bad, not even Jake. Today, my plan is to find out who the mystery woman is and make her mine, tie up loose ends with the whole Jenna thing and then find out who the fuck the person calling me is.
I start out by opening my laptop and looking up the new hires. There are a couple names I don't recognize and call Theresa into the office. She walks in and smiles, "Anything I can help you with?"
"Yes, actually I am wondering something. There are a few people here that I haven't met yet and I wondered if you have met any of the women on this list? I like to make sure that I meet everyone in the company at least once. Just to make an appearance and let them know if they have any problems that they can come to me."
She leans over the desk and looks at the names. "There are one or two I haven't met, but most of them I have at least bee
I sit at my desk wondering what the hell just happened. Part of me wants to pack up my things and run as far away from him as I can. The other part needs to find out more. Trying desperately to figure out which way I should go, I think on it.When he came in just now, the first thing that I thought was, I hope he's here to finish what he started. That should not have been my first concern. It should have been, how do I proceed without getting fired? Then I'm incapable of stopping him when he demands that I go out to dinner with him, fully knowing what will happen afterwards.My fight or flight response kicks in and all I want to do is get away, like a rabbit running from the predator. Looking around, I see my things and get up to grab them and leave. Before I reach the door, Janet comes in and looks shocked."What's wrong? You look like you saw a ghost or something."It takes me a min
Frustrated and incredibly horny, I try to sleep after pacing around for awhile. When Lauryn left, I couldn't believe the bad luck I was having and then it turned to anger. Realizing that the man on the phone could be her boyfriend, I find myself wondering why she came back to my apartment. She had to know that there was only one thing on my mind.Does she not know how she makes me feel? I thought she felt the same thing by the way she reacts to me. If she has a boyfriend though, then that's a whole new ball game. Maybe that's what she tried to tell me at the office, why she didn't want to go to dinner with me.Not being able to sleep, I throw the covers back and stroke myself. As I think about her waiting in front of me on all fours, I come in record time. Right before I fall asleep, I swear to myself that I will make her mine.Waking up early, I go to the gym and do my full work out. That made me feel
Not wanting to go to work, I have to force myself to get in the car and drive. Feeling depressed, I watch as a woman pulls up next to me at the light. She has really pretty long black hair in a braid and she is wearing matching black designer glasses. The kind you see actresses wear all the time. The reason why I'm late for work is I'm not looking forward to seeing Darren. Last night was so hot, that when I did fall asleep eventually, I dreamt about it. When the doctor put Fluffy to sleep, I was so heart broken that I sat on my couch for hours with Chris holding me. He really is the best. However, seeing Darren mad like that made me want to run the other way. I don't want him to take it out on me at work and affect my chances of succeeding there, because I am already becoming partial to it and the people I work with. If I had to leave now, I would be deeply hurt. Now, I could do without Jake hitting on me
The last thing I would tell Lauryn is that Jake wants to talk to me about Jenna, so I lie. After all, what she doesn't know won't hurt her and I didn't know I would ever see her again, let alone work here under me. I pace around Jake's office and listen to him lecture me. Not being able to believe that I forgot to give her the necklace, I get impatient and want to just walk back to her office. "You know, if you kept your dick in your pants we wouldn't be having these problems right now." He turns to me mad and shows me the documents, the lawyer had drawn up. "I thought your man took care of this problem?" "He did, but apparently not before the lawyer sent this." As I continue to pace, I wonder what this is really about. Piecing the puzzle together, I figure it out and turn on him. "You are mad because Lauryn is mine, aren't you? Why are we even fighting over her, you are fucking Theresa?"
I can't believe Mr. Denver jumped me like that. Just when I was about to leave with Janet for dinner, he comes in and tells me he needs to talk to me. Looking at Janet, I could tell something was up, because she wouldn't look me in the eyes. After she leaves, he tries to get me to go to the concert with him, even though I had made it clear before that I wasn't interested.What part of no doesn't he understand? I sit there wondering how to get out of it, when Darren walks in and I suddenly feel relieved. The look on Jake's face was priceless when Darren notifies him we are going to dinner, but now I realize that Janet isn't trust worthy.It scares me, because I told her quite a bit of personal things about me and the way I feel about others at work. Now I don't know who to trust and I'm heading towards Darren's car again. Not knowing where we are going or what we are about to do, makes me nervous and excited at
Staring at the ceiling, I toss and turn eventually getting out of bed. I look at the alarm and it reads 7 a.m. Not wanting to wake Lauryn on a Saturday, I do my gym time and afterwards jump in the shower. The cascading water feels wonderful on my tired muscles. I have one of those deluxe showers that have several spouts, one on each wall. Usually putting the shower to the first setting, I stand in the middle as they pulse powerfully and assault my body from all sides. The heat beats on me while I run my hands down over my body. Today, I think I will use my all time favorite Woodsy and Citrus body wash. Reaching for it, I feel the stretching of the incision in my side. Still not completely healed, I favor it and hope that it doesn't leave too big of a scar. Yes, I know. It's manly to have scars, but perfection is a big part of my persona. Scrubbing my body, my hands drift down to my erecti
When we go inside, Darren's mom gives me a hug and whispers in my ear, "He loves you, don't hurt him dear." Letting me go, she gives me a warning look and then smiles at Darren lovingly. "Sweetie, have a seat next to your girlfriend and tell me all about how you two met." Her eyes are fixed on me and I can tell she is watching out for him. Something in his past, must have made her this way. Darren sits down right next to me and holds my hand. Lacing my fingers with his, he doesn't let go as he tells her. "One night I was coming home from a friend's house and I hit a deer. Realizing that the battery in my phone died, I walked up to the nearest house. It just happened to be Lauryn's." He stops and smiles at me, squeezing my hand. "She was very kind to open for me and let me use her phone, considering it was about 2 in the morning. I never asked for her name or number, thinking we would never see
After telling Lauryn that I love her, she acts shocked. How could she be? I know she feels the same way, because I can sense it. When we touch, it's like our souls intertwine. I watch her get dressed and get up on the horse, while I do the same. Between the kicking and bucking, I manage to calm Goldy down and catch up to Lauryn going at a fairly fast pace. Riding next to her, I sit quietly not wanting to make things worse than they already are. She probably thinks this whole thing is some kind of setup, because ever since she got here it has been one thing after another. I can't believe my mom kept it up like that and now that I have spilled the beans, what does she think of me? A fool? What man tells a woman they have gone out with on two dates, that he loves her? All I can say is that I know what I want and I go full force to get it. I don't have any excuses and I won't try to make any either
"Daddy, daddy, look!" We both turn to look at what Daniel and Daniella are yelling about. Miah sitting on the sand turns around and watches as the twins run around with a crab. It has been three years and the kids have gotten so big. The twins are 2 and Miah is 5. Being such a big sister, she always watches out for them and helps with everything. Samantha and Chris got married three months after we did and have a beautiful little girl Christina. Ironically, she looks just like Darren. Janet and Casper ended up getting engaged, but Janet got bored with him soon after and moved on. Theresa quit when she found out Jake was screwing the secretary on the fourth floor, shortly after Darren came back to work. Then one night almost a year ago, Jake was driving in a storm, when he took a corner too fast in his Maserati and ended up slamming into a semi going 150. He had to have a close
"Hey Baby, where's my tux? The rehearsal is in an hour? I have looked all over and can't find it."Smiling, I answer. "Don't you remember? It's in the back of the car already, along with my wedding gown and Miah's dress.It's Saturday, the morning of the wedding and everything has fallen in place. Ben and Kathy talked to the Minister and made sure that it is all absolutely perfect. Samantha and Chris are in town, staying at the hotel. They are going to meet us at the rehearsal and Darren's mom Elizabeth and his sister Shana are already in town too, staying next door to Samantha and Chris.Yes, I feel bad for them, because I know damn well that Samantha and Chris made a lot of noise all night. She really wanted to have a double wedding with us, but Darren was firm on the fact that he wanted all eyes on me only today. Excited, I'm practically jumping out of my skin.I am sure glad that we did
On Thursday morning, we wake up as usual with two exceptions. Instead of driving to work, Lauryn does and I watch Miah. Now the only time we need the babysitter is when we want to be alone, at least until I find another corporate position. I hear the phone ring, taking it out of my pocket I see that it's from Mr. Reynolds. "It's all taken care of. You are officially the sole parents of Miah and you will never hear from Jaiden again. Apparently they found her body hanging from the jail cell. I was told that she supposedly hung herself with her bed sheet." Standing up and pacing, I ask, "Did you file a lawsuit with the Chronicle?" "Yes and as soon as I did, their lawyers offered up a settlement. Will you take a formal apology on the front page of the newspaper and twenty million dollars for compensation? I told them I would have to talk it over with you, but figured the sum was too low considering you lost a multi
Janet told me all about Darren resigning. I just wish I had heard it from him first. What happened? I know that he was on the front page of the newspaper and somehow Jaiden set it up, but why did he have to leave?Struggling through the rest of the day, I wait till it's time to go home. Looking at the clock, I see that it's 2 minutes to 5 and I start packing up my things. I hear a knock at the door and thinking it's Darren, rush over to it. Unfortunately, it's Jake with a big shitty ass grin on his face."So, do you need a ride home? I assume you heard the news." Staring at me, he sits down in the chair by my desk. Patting my chair and motioning for me to sit down, I walk over to it and take a seat.Sighing, I listen as he tells me all about it. "Lauryn, I can't believe he did this to you. He has made your relationship a scandal, even though it's not true. How could he drag you into th
It's Wednesday. Waking up to my beautiful fiance, I smile and kiss her good morning. Last night was a hit and I am so glad she enjoyed it. We needed some romance in our relationship after everything that has been going on.Getting up and going downstairs to work out, I notice that strangely no one is here again, so I quickly do my routines. Getting back upstairs in record time, I find her waiting on the couch for me so we can take a shower together."Baby, let's go get a shower, I have something I want to give you." Looking down at my erection, she smiles and nods.I take her hand and lead her into the shower. Grabbing a bottle of body wash and turning on the shower, I pour the liquid on her shoulders and watch it slip down her voluptuous body. Soaping her up, she stares at me with lust in her eyes. I feel her hands grab my balls and pull me to her.Leaning down, I cup a breast in each hand and s
Walking in the door, Darren yells out. "Where is Karen?" He runs around the apartment looking for her. Hearing her name, she comes out of the kitchen looking startled, because she had been making popcorn before they came in.Looking up at him, she asks. "What's going on?"Relieved, Darren calms down and I wonder why he is so jumpy in the first place. Did he get a note too or did he find out something he isn't telling me? Deciding to let it go for now, I thank Karen and send her home after paying her.Letting my hair down, I relax and go make sure Miah is tucked in. Carefully opening the door, I peek in and watch her sleep peacefully. Smiling, I close her door and go to the bedroom where Darren is.Sitting on the bed, he stares at me as I come in the door. The look on his face is one of a man who needs to de-stress. Stripping, I stand in front of him and run my hands down my side
Tuesday morning rolls around and when I wake up I feel a little off. Not being able to put my finger on it, I get up to do my workout. Lauryn is sound asleep, so I wait a few minutes to wake her up. Instead, I go to the bathroom and get my workout clothes on first.Once I'm ready to go downstairs, I wake her up with a kiss. When her eyes open and she smiles, I start to feel better. She reaches up and pulls me down on her, hugging me and kissing me. "Good Morning, my wonderful husband." She smiles and continues, "Just thought I would try that one on for size."Loving the way that sounds coming from her lips, I kiss her again and then go down to complete my workout. Working up a sweat, I grab a towel and move to the next machine, but when I sit down I watch as Celeste walks in. Great, that's all I need right now.She walks over to me just as soon as she spots me and purrs my name. "Darren, who
After chasing around Miah all day Sunday, I finally got a decent amount of sleep. However, waking up this morning for work, I feel like I didn't sleep at all and it's only Monday. I wonder just how much paperwork will be waiting for me on my desk when I get in.At least yesterday we brought my car back here, so I wouldn't have to rely on Darren to get me everywhere and we hired a babysitter for Miah to start this morning. Opening the door to her room, I watch her sleep peacefully and wait for Darren to get back from doing his workout. When I hear him open the front door, I shut hers carefully as to not wake her and go find Darren.Finding him in the bathroom, I join him in the shower. The steam feels so good on my neck and back especially when he comes up behind me and picks me up. When he places my back against the wall, I wrap my legs around his waist and he kisses me with urgency.Feeling his erection poking me in the
Driving back to the city, we decide how to proceed with everything. Letting Lauryn do the talking, I sit back and drive while she calls Jaiden and informs her that we will be meeting her a bit later than initially decided. Of course, she isn't happy, but eventually agrees. Feeling confident that everything will work out, I look over at Lauryn and smile.Her face is lit up by the sun and she looks absolutely radiant. How lucky am I to have a woman who is willing to take in another child that isn't her own and love her? I thought for sure I was going to have to let Miah go. She glances at me and returns a beautiful Lauryn smile. For a few minutes we sit quietly driving, then she asks me a question. "Why would you have given up your child for me? I thought she was your everything, what happened?" Mulling it over, I answer eventually, "Well, I realized that I wasn't willing to lose you over this. Yo
