Facing the Inevitable

The unexpected rain that I thought would be short and temporary ended up lasting a few days. On and off, the rain fell from the sky and made the weather completely unpredictable. Although I knew that I shouldn’t let something like the weather affect my mood, it was still hard for me to control myself and I ended up feeling quite gloomy at work. Travelling around with an umbrella in my bag at all times became a burdensome necessity.

Despite the gloomy weather, everything at work was working out so superbly that it was fabulously surprising. Sometimes people tell me that it’s more exciting to leave the result unknown right until the end or the last moment. I would agree with that on some cases; however, when it came to the result of the competition, I wanted to be assured way earlier on that we would turn out to be the winner. I didn’t mind at all if there was absolutely no excitement in the result announcement or the ceremony that would be held to dish out the awards.

    “I guess we’re almost there,” I murmured. “You’re right,” Ace replied without turning to look at me. Now that the time was fast approaching and the event was about to start, I couldn’t quite contain the mix of troubling emotions that bubbled up inside of me. I wished that I could feel calm inside or at least appear outwardly calm just like Ace could; however, I couldn’t hide all the worries that started taking root deep inside of me. “Don’t worry. Just stick with the team. Julianna and most of the team members have been to this event before last year and the ones before that as well. They know how things are supposed to go down, so you don’t need to panic,” Ace said as he tried to reassure me. That just told me that it was plain obvious to him that I was on the verge of losing it. I felt slightly disappointed in myself and all that I could do was nod my head a little to tell him that I understood and that I would follow his instructions. Ace flashed me a smile before he reached fo

  • Love Slave to My Devil CEO Boss   Announcing the Winner

    “Don’t act so nervous. We’ll be fine…” Ace whispered close to my ear. “But you said that we’ll never know what could happen until the results are announced…” I whispered back as I recalled his words from earlier. “I just said that to keep the reporters on the edge of their seat,” Ace replied in a low whisper so that his words were for my ears only. “Even if you say that…” I muttered softly. There were good reasons why Ace was so optimistic about the result of the competition, and I could understand where he was coming from. I tensed in my seat as my heartbeat quickened. The host kept on speaking but all his words were lost to me. It was apparent that dealing with too much suspense wasn’t something that I had a talent for. For our industry, this award was sort of like the Oscars when it came to movies. “Now, the time that everyone has been undoubtedly waiting for…” the host said before he flashed the audience a bright smile. A woman dressed in a sparkly gold dress walked onto the

    “This is crazy…” I muttered underneath my breath just to hear Ace chuckling softly from next to me. He must be used to how the host did something like this every year, but I was so far from being used to it. I chewed on my lower lip hard in my anxiousness as my hand squeezed Ace’s tightly. Time passed by so slowly that I started praying silently in my hearts of hearts that we would win the competition. What must have lasted a mere few seconds in reality felt like a year to me as I leaned forward in my seat with my eyes glued on the figure of the host who was standing on the stage as well as the large screen behind him. “…Jessen’s and Hill’s. Congratulations!” the host announced so loudly into the microphone that his voice seemed to echo endlessly in the hall. I didn’t know how to react, but my body and instincts took over immediately. Without thinking, I jumped up from my seat and cheered so loudly as I clapped my hands. Everyone on the team basically did the same thing. I turned a

  • Love Slave to My Devil CEO Boss   His Disappearance

    When Ace walked up on that stage, I never dreamt that he would give a speech that would mark his retirement from his role. Even though I knew that it was coming, I never imagined that he would end things so abruptly and publicly like this. I wondered if the Chairman knew in advance about Ace’s announcement and then I highly doubted it. This long-awaited victory undoubtedly brought me great joy; however, it would be inaccurate to say that we didn’t see this coming. Even though I wasn’t as confident as Ace and the other members on the team were, there were many things that led us to believe that we were most likely to win the competition. Ace was probably quite certain of it and Julianna clearly felt the same way. Jeremy, being captivated by numbers and statistics, was also very well convinced. The amount of donations that we received to back the cause was a very impressive amount. The donation amount alone put us in first place, leading the competitor in second place by miles. That c

    “You did it, Karina!” she yelled so that her voice would reach me.I quicky made my way over to where she was standing with a few of my other colleagues from my old department. It felt like a lifetime ago when Ace showed me the recommendation letter that she wrote to him regarding my transfer. Although it may not have been the start of my relationship with Ace, I was certain that the letter that she had written to him was one of the things that brought Ace and me together. She probably had no idea how much impact that letter would have on my life even beyond my professional career. “Thank you! Thank you for all that you’ve done for me. Thank you for all the opportunities and guidance that you’ve given me throughout the years,” I thanked her wholeheartedly as I felt tears welling up in my eyes. “You did well. I knew that you could do it. Congratulations!” she replied with a few nods of her head.She looked like a proud parent, and I was so thrilled that I could make her feel that way

    The biggest problem wasn’t finding him but figuring out why he had suddenly disappeared. The twisted sick feeling that I felt deep in my gut told me that something unpleasant was about to happen to us. After all that we’ve been through, I hated it whenever I felt insecure, but insecurity was probably the most accurate term to describe the mixed and very messy emotions that filled my heart before bringing tears to my eyes.Where did he go and why did it have to be now of all times?I stared at my phone screen as I prayed that he would just give me a call back. My hands trembled and felt very cold as I sat on the sofa in Ace’s living room all alone. The place had never felt so empty and void of life before. Anger welled up inside of me and I let out a loud growl of frustration that no one else heard apart from myself. Ace promised to tell me everything and let me know what was going on after the competition was over. Now that the time had arrived, he just somehow disappeared, and I have

    My hand flew to cover my mouth as I jumped up from the sofa in my extreme shock. My phone continued vibrating as I gripped it tightly in my hands. For a moment, I was too stunned to know what to do. I cleared my throat as my eyes kept on staring at my phone screen in disbelief.It felt like the rain clouds in the sky had finally parted after the havoc of a rainstorm and suddenly there was soft warm orange ray of lights shining down on me like a spotlight of blessing from above. Ace was calling me!“Ace! Where are you?!” I shouted into the phone so loudly that I was shocked at my more-than-little outburst. “Rina, where are you right now?” Ace asked with clear urgency in his voice.“I-I’m at your place. I’ve been waiting for you. I tried calling you so many times, but I couldn’t reach you…” I replied as my voice shook with emotion. “Calm down. Just wait there for a bit. I’ll pick you up in less than an hour,” he told me and this time his tone was back to its normal calm and reassurin

    He let go of me and put just enough distance between us so that he could peer into my face as if to inspect the damage that I had sustained. I wanted to yell at him to let him know that this was all because of him and how he vanished right after getting down from the stage during the award ceremony. A lump formed in my throat but no matter what I wanted, I couldn’t say anything mean to him. “I thought that you were gone…” I confessed softly and shyly. “Gone? What do you mean by that?” he asked with a blank look on his face like he truly didn’t know what I was referring to. “You just disappeared without telling me anything and I couldn’t get in touch with you no matter how hard I tried. I also didn’t know where you were…” I said accusingly. “Were you scared that I would leave you?” Ace asked needlessly. I despised myself for acting so childish and helpless and that emotion channeled itself into my irritation and anger toward Ace. He whispered my name tenderly as he reached a hand

  • Love Slave to My Devil CEO Boss   The End - True Love

    Almost immediately after Aiden was born, we were urged to move back to the city where Aiden could be raised in Ace’s family estate with an army of servants at his service. Naturally, I was against the idea right from the start. Surprisingly, Ace was even more against the idea and made sure that we were not disturbed as we continued to raise our young baby in the comfort of our own home. My mother moved into the house with us to help take care of baby Aiden. Ace fell in love with being a father and couldn’t wait to expand our family even further. Just when Aiden turned one year old, we began another baby-making project which resulted in another pregnancy not so long after. Roughly nine months later, Aiden became a big brother to baby Katie. Having two children to take care of increased our fun exponentially. By that time, we had our hands really full with the children and struggled to keep up with work at the office. “Maybe I should stop working to take care of the children…” I mumbl

    “With pleasure,” I replied with a smile. Everything he did and said to me turned me on so badly. I wanted him so much that I thought that I might go crazy if I had to wait any longer to have him. My hands shook a little as I rushed to unbuckle his belt and unzip his pants. I sucked in a breath as I stared at the thick and throbbing monster that sprang into my hands. His cock was already gigantic and extremely erect. The virile look of his tool made my insides quiver just thinking of all the things that it could do to me once it entered me. “Put it inside you, Rina…” Ace urged in a seductive drawl that made my pussy quiver in anticipation. I knew that he was teasing me, but I found it so temptingly sexy at the same time. His cock throbbed in my hand, and I could feel it getting thicker and hotter. I stroked it up and down teasingly as I observed the look of desire that crept into Ace’s hazel eyes.“Let me help you spread your legs…” Ace offered as he grabbed my thighs and lifted the

    The fact that we worked together and lived together gave rise to ample opportunities for us to get it on. At the rate that we were going, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out one day that I had successfully conceived. “Everyone headed home already. Should we call it a day and head home too?” I asked as I approached Ace in his personal office. Work has been quite busy as of late because many projects were due at pretty much the same time. Everyone in the office has been busy and hiring more people to take on the work also meant that there were more people for us to supervise. Time seemed to fly by each time and before I knew it, the sun had set outside, and it was getting dark. Working extra hours slowly became the norm again, although the work was still much more motivating and interesting than ever before. “Are you tired?” Ace asked with a worried look on his face.“Not really. I just don’t think you should work too late,” I replied honestly. “I guess I should stop working now the

    “You’re not that old, dad. Surely, you can wait a few years,” Ace said defensively. “It doesn’t matter whether or not I’m old. She’s your wife and this is part of what she needs to do,” he said as he stared directly at me. “Stop pressuring her. Stress makes it harder for women to conceive. Don’t you know that?” Ace asked jokingly, although it was quite true. “Stop taking her side on this one,” his father warned. “She’s my wife, so of course, I’ll take her side. I know that you want to become a grandfather so badly, but you have to be patient. Don’t worry, we won’t disappoint you. We’ll have loads of children,” Ace said while sounding quite happy.I wasn’t sure how to handle the situation, so I was thankful that Ace was covering for me. There was no way that I would bend to the pressure and agree to having a baby right away. The few years that I stated felt like the right timeframe for me and if Ace didn’t have an issue with it, then it felt like enough for me. I have to say that I

    I could sense that more trouble was coming our way and that I wasn’t going to quite like what he had to say. “Why do you think your father wants to see us?” I asked in a shaky voice. “You don’t need to be so scared of him,” Ace replied teasingly. “I don’t know…it just feels like there’s something that he wants from us…” I murmured before letting out a soft sigh. “Don’t overly worry yourself over nothing, Rina. We’re married now so I hope that you’ll get used to my dad even if I have to say that he’s not the easiest person to deal with,” Ace said before showing me a smile that I felt was comforting. “He suddenly requested to see us, and we just got back,” I said while still sounding very worried. “Maybe he has good news for us,” Ace said brightly. I highly doubted it, but I didn’t want to voice my thoughts out loud. There was a possibility that Ace might be right but that probably was probably very slim. The main estate for Ace’s family felt as intimidating as ever when we arriv

    My body was hungry for even more pleasure, and I couldn’t wait to feel something even hotter and thicker stretching and filling up my insides.“Ace…please…” I begged him as I spread my legs wide for him. I reached up toward him with both my arms invitingly as I kept my pussy spread open to welcome his cock. Ace’s cock looked ready to burst and I knew that he couldn’t wait to shove that massive tool inside of me. “You look so sexy right now,” he complimented me with a look of raw desire in his eyes. “Take me…please…” I begged shamelessly as I held my thighs spread open for him. Ace stroked my pussy lips before spreading them and positioning the thick head of his cock at my entrance. I whimpered his name when I felt the hot heat of his hardness pressing against my pussy. Our eyes met and my insides clenched wildly in anticipation of his entrance. Ace smiled down at me before he thrusted his hips forward and screwed his cock hard and deep into my flooded love cave. “Ahhh!” I cried o

    Just like how I wanted to make our wedding unforgettable, I wanted our first night together as a married couple to be unforgettable as well. Ace carried me to the bed and climbed on top of me just after we had arrived at the resort that we would be staying at for our honeymoon. It felt like the sea and all that mother nature had to offer outside could wait for the moment. At that moment, all that really mattered was the fact that we were together. “I want to fuck you already,” Ace confessed in a whisper close to my ear. His words and the way his warm breath tickled my ear sent shivers along my spine and I realized very quickly just how turned on I was already. Ace’s lips moved from my neck to capture my lips in an aggressive kiss that did nothing to hide his desire to have me. I kissed him back just as fervently before parting my lips invitingly for his tongue to delve inside my wet mouth. “Mhmm…” I moaned from the satisfaction of his tongue invading my mouth.My tongue welcomed hi

    The guests clapped and cheered but I was so oblivious to them at that moment. All I could focus on was Ace while I cherished this memory that we were making together. It felt like a very bright and wonderful start to our future life as a married couple. The lunch reception that followed was slightly stressful for me given the fact that I didn’t have the chance to meet many people from Ace’s side of the family before. Regardless of my worries, it turned out that everyone was friendly enough even if it was for the sake of politeness. “Just smile, Rina. My bride looks so beautiful today,” Ace complimented me openly. “Thank you,” I replied softly.I knew that he was basically telling me to leave everything up to him and I didn’t mind letting him take the lead on this one. If I had to place my bets on which one out of us was the best at handling his family members, then it would be him and definitely not me. To my surprise, Ace’s father was very active in managing the guests. His conside

    To my surprise, Ace was firm with his father so that his business partners would not be on the guest list. At the end of the day, the Chairman had to give his approval for Ace to have his way. I knew that Ace must have done that out of respect for my wishes.The white church decorated with a mix of white and light pastel pink and blue flowers gave off the slightly fairytale vibe that I had in mind. In fact, the set up and decoration looked better than what I could have imagined in my mind. The inside of the church was decorated with the same theme of flowers. “This is better than what I had in mind…” I told Ace honestly. “I’m glad to hear it. Let’s have a wonderful wedding, Rina,” Ace said before showing me a smile so charming that my heart skipped a beat. He reached for my hand and entwined his fingers with mine before giving my hand a soft and encouraging squeeze. I suddenly felt so excited and the wedding that was about to start felt more real than ever. “You’re right. Let’s re
