This was probably a part of what he had been trying desperately to hide from me. Even after seeing it, I still haven’t discovered what he planned to do except to perhaps have a building constructed. I didn’t even know where the building was going to be located or what it was going to be used for. Suddenly, I felt slightly nauseous, and my temples started to throb as I struggled to deal with the void of emptiness that seemed to have taken shape inside of me. Although I had been trying desperately to deal with it silently and telling myself to be patient, I still hated the fact that Ace was keeping secrets from me. The worst part out of all of this was the piercing painful feeling that sprang up in my chest when I thought that Ace did not want to share his future with me. It felt like I was an outsider, and he was treating me like one. Not telling me anything and always keeping me in the dark. I stared down at the blueprint again as I wondered if the future that Ace envisioned for him
We did it? “Really? Did the amount of donation go up?” I asked as his words caught my attention. Ace smiled warmly down at me before he slowly nodded his head in confirmation. My eyes widened even further, and for a moment, I was at a loss for words. Thankfully, we were finally seeing some positive results and some good news. I let out a sigh of relief before I tried my best to smile up brightly at Ace. “Come along. You can listen to Julianna blab about her success,” Ace said as he grabbed my wrist.He turned around and began pulling me along with him down the hallway. I let him lead me wherever he wanted me to. I was just so relieved that Project Alpha seemed to be back on track. There wasn’t a lot of time left until the announcement of the winner of the competition and then everything that I had been waiting for and dreading would happen all at once. Ace would quit his job and he would no longer work here. I wouldn’t have the chance to work with Ace like this anymore. I stared d
I felt a little bad for her, but I had to admit that Ace’s suggestion was probably the right one. “Everything will be fine here now, thanks to you…” I whispered to her softly. “Fine. I’ll go home. Let’s go home, you guys!” Julianna mumbled before turning to yell at her team members. “I’ll see you all tomorrow…” I said before I thanked everyone who was leaving. Since the results of Julianna’s work turned out much better than we could have imagined, there honestly wasn’t much work to do for the rest of the day but to monitor the campaign. If anything, the people in the war room spent time celebrating their little victory by going out to get coffee or softly chatting to one another while doing some work. Everything was so peaceful until my phone suddenly vibrated on the table. I quickly grabbed it when I saw the notification that I had just received a new message. My heart skipped a beat when I saw that the message was from Ace. I glanced over to see him working diligently on his la
While trying to tell myself to calm down and act normal, I headed towards the exit of the archive. The same guard was there at the exit and that made me feel quite nervous. It went without saying that I had never stolen or inappropriately ‘borrowed’ a document like this before. I flashed the guard a little smile before casually walking past. After taking a few steps away. I honestly thought that I had made it; however, things didn’t quite end as smoothly as I had hoped. “Little lady, if you put that back where you got it from, I will look the other way and pretend that this never happened…” the guard muttered in a low voice. My body froze at his words when I realized that my stupid attempt to smuggle the document out had failed spectacularly. He must have been watching on the security camera and caught on to what I was up to. It was regretful but I had no other choice except to return the document from where it came from. “I’m sorry…” I mumbled a soft apology as I turned around.
“What exactly are you looking for? Do you need some help?” he asked as his eyes continued staring at my face. “Oh no, I’m done here already…” I replied softly. I prayed that Ace wouldn’t ask for more details about what exactly I was doing down here in the archives. My heart thumped so loudly in my chest that it made me wonder if he could hear the sound of my rapid heartbeat. My hands started to sweat, and for once, I was thankful that the guard had gotten me to put back that document. I wanted to talk to Ace about it soon enough after the end of Project Alpha but it would be terrible if he caught me with it now. Ace’s sharp gaze kept on staring at me, and I started to feel like a prey that had been cornered. If only the guard would return from his break now, that would save me a great deal. I knew that that was just wistful thinking. Somehow, I had to find a way to deal with Ace and get out of this situation. While my mind raced to come up with an reasonable excuse, Ace took a few
“Ace…please, let’s stop…” I pleaded desperately. “Stop, what?” he asked with some interest. I bit down on my lower lip in frustration before I glared at him as if doing that would send some telepathic message across to him. My real frustration stemmed from the fact that I was certain that he knew what I was referring to but had chosen to act all innocent. “We can’t do it here. There are cameras…everywhere…” I pointed out without backing down. Ace stared at me for a moment in silence and that made me feel so open and vulnerable in front of him. I wished that he would stop staring at me like he could see through me even if that was how it was really was. It was bad enough that we were this close and already on camera. “Do what?” Ace asked before the corners of his beautiful lips curved upwards into slightly teasing smirk.Slowly, his fingertips stroked their ways down my arm, and I wanted to let out a moan at the fleeting yet pleasurable sensation. He was teasing me mercilessly and
My poor little heart couldn’t help but skip a beat and I had to turn away a little to hide my blush. Ace let out a soft laugh which made me feel even more shy and self-aware than before. “I didn’t think that you two would search for inspiration in the company’s old archive but I have to say that the ideas you two came up with wasn’t at all bad. Seems like it was worth the effort of digging through all those old files,” Ace commented. I smiled a little at him before Ace turned to focus his eyes back on the road ahead. The traffic was unusually light for rush hours during a weekday. While watching the attractive view of Ace’s side profile, I wondered if he knew that all his old works were actually quite carefully stored in the company’s archives. More accurately, I figured that Ace probably wasn’t at all aware because he did mention that he threw everything out. While I had no idea why he did that to his precious work documents, I was as equally curious about who had saved his work an
“Ace…” I murmured his name. His arms tightened around my body, and he held me in silence for a short moment before his hands began exploring the curves of my body. Ace’s hands moved boldly to stroke my waist before quickly moving upwards to grope my breasts. “Ah! Ace…” I let out a cry of surprise when he squeezed my breasts sharply.The sensation of his touch seemed to have awoken all my senses and suddenly my entire body felt so sensitive. I felt his hot breath against the side of my neck for a brief moment before he began kissing me there. The pace at which his small teasing kisses transformed into wild sucking and licking told me that he wasn’t really going to take it slow. “Ace…what are you doing?” I murmured before I started moaning from the pleasure of his lips teasing my sensitive skin. “Continuing from where we left off…” he murmured close to my ear. I let out another moan as my mind struggled to remain in control. I knew that he was referring to that little episode that
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
