Lust Contracts Emotional Involvement
“Thank you. The thing is…I got a text message from Adrian this morning asking if I’m free today,” I confessed as felt myself frowning. “Have you replied to him? Are you going to meet him?” Justin asked with widened eyes. I just shook my head sadly in response. The truth was, I just chickened out and didn’t end up sending him any kind of reply. Justin nodded his head in understanding. “You should at least send him a reply, I think. I know that it’s hard for you. Even if you decide not to meet him, you should at least let him know that,” Justin suggested with a worried look on his face. “I know that you’re right and I know that that is what I should do but…it’s harder than I thought. Everything just feels so complicated…” I confessed before letting out a depressed sigh.Justin stared at me from across the table and it looked like he was about to say something to me but then the waitress turned up with our order. The salad that I ordered looked so colorful that it made me feel slight
Lust Contracts Sudden Decision
“Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind that there is always a way out, but as of now, I don’t want to change my clients…” I replied much faster than I thought. I had not realized up until that point that despite all that had happened, I had never truly thought of terminating the contact with any of my three clients. It was challenging and things would be awkward, but I had always assumed at the back of my mind that I would go back to meet them and work for them. “Has any of my clients asked to terminate their contract?” I asked. “Not at all. I’m not sure what happened exactly, and you don’t have to go tell me if you don’t want to talk about it, but it’s probably not bad enough for them to want to terminate the contract,” Justin said before showing me a comforting smile. “I guess…” I mumbled.Maybe it wasn’t all that bad……After spending the whole day just hanging around with Justin in his office and helping him out here and there where I could with some documents, I started to feel very
Lust Contracts Made Easy
Just like the other private clubs and bars that I’ve been to, there were many staff and guards at the entrance to check for entry requirements. I presumed that Adrian must have given me their name as his guest. After giving them my name and telling them that I was here to see Adrian, one of the staffs quickly led me inside. It wouldn’t be called a jazz bar without jazz music. The inside was much darker than I had imagined, and it was a little hard to see at first. The stage where the live jazz band was playing was quite large and very eye-catching with all the spotlights. I wasn’t a big fan of jazz music, but I didn’t particularly hate it either. I reminded myself that I wasn’t here for the music as my insides started churning from nervousness. “He’s waiting for you over there,” the staff told me.“Thank you…” I thanked the young woman with an appreciative nod of my head. Although the place was quite dark, each table seemed to be adequately lit up with orange candlelight. I stood a
Lust Contracts Possessiveness and Jealousy
I just nodded a little while thinking that it would be great if we could settle this without going into any deeper details. Of all the things, I didn’t want to discuss Brandon and the relationship that I had with him whether it was now or in the past. “It’s fine…” I murmured. “I heard that you had to take a break for a few days. Honestly, I’ve been very worried about you but I didn’t want to disturb your rest so I didn’t try to contact you before today,” he confessed honestly. It didn’t surprise me that Adrian was worried about me. From my experience of being with him, I could feel that he was a genuinely caring and honest person. However, that didn’t mean that he was a simple and kind man with nothing else hidden in his package. Justin was right about everything that he had told me before. If any of these men were simple, they probably wouldn’t have ended up as my client. “Thank you for worrying about me but I’m fine now. I just needed a little time to rest and clear my mind,” I
Lust Contracts Second Hurdle
“About that trip to the orphanage that we were talking about…” he began before looking at me as if to gauge my reaction. “I’d still love to go if you still want me to,” I replied almost immediately. “Really?” Adrian asked with such an excited look on his face. Suddenly, he appeared much younger and a lot more innocent. Just like an excited little boy who had successfully invited his friend on a trip, he beamed a smile at me. With what had happened between us, maybe he thought that I would have changed my mind about going on a trip with him. If he was someone else, that might have turned out to be the case. However, if I was being honest, I really looked forward to going on that trip with him. It wasn’t just because it was a chance to spend more time with Adrian, but the idea of visiting orphanages felt like the right thing to do for me. Getting in contact with my past life might do me some good and help me figure out something about my sense of self and who I was. After being adop
Lust Contracts Gamemaster
Brandon was definitely the heir to the largest chain of casinos on top of hotels for sure. Brandon never played any game unless he was the gamemaster. I have never seen him lose a bet before either in my life. George was seriously a fool to think that he could win against Brandon and at his own casino at that. So now, what game is he going to make me play?The only way to find out was to ask him. I thought that that was ironic in and of itself. If I had to pick, then I would say that I would prefer not to see Brandon. Although what happened was more my fault than his, my desire to hide away from him outweighed my rational sense and reason to want to meet him. Before I would chicken out and change my mind, I took out my phone and sent a simple text to Brandon. ‘Where and when do you want to meet me?’ I counted silently in my mind to around twenty as I stared at my phone screen. Just as I had anticipated, Brandon sent me back a reply within that timeframe. Had he been expecting for m
Lust Contracts No Match for Him
Just as I had expected, within the already very private space was another level of privacy when he led me to a private room. Once again, I began to wonder what exactly Brandon had planned. Although he appeared the way that he always did, I couldn’t deny that the atmosphere between us was unusually tense. I wondered if he also felt the way that I did or if I was the only one who felt unusually stiff while we were together. “Sit anywhere you like,” he instructed casually as he gestured to the large set of white sofas in the middle of the room. My eyes scanned the pristinely white and modern interior of the private room that we were in. Apart from the large sofa set that was in the middle of the room, there was a very large shiny white work desk with a matching white leather chair. Brandon must have been working in this room before my arrival because his laptop still had its lid open on the table. “I didn’t know that you liked working in shared working spaces nowadays…” I said to make
Lust Contracts All He Wanted
There were many things that I needed to apologize for, and I was certain that he knew that already. It was unfortunate, but I wasn’t in a position with a whole lot of bargaining power, and he absolutely knew that as well. It wasn’t going to be easy, but he wanted to hear me say it, then I had no other choice but to say it. “That day at the hospital, I was unprofessional. Although I was supposed to be working for you, I ended up serving another client when we happened to run into each other…” I said before I pressed my lips tightly into a thin line. My throat and my lips felt dry, and I had to run my tongue along my lower lip. Brandon did not say anything, and he did not seem at all impressed at my attempt to do things his way. His eyes stared coldly at me, and I knew that he was waiting for me to go on. “This is all still kind of new for me, and yes, I know that it’s not a great excuse, but I didn’t know how to handle running into two of my clients at the same time. I panicked…” I

Lust Contracts Let Me Teach You
“What are you sorry about, Elena? Are you sorry for turning me down?” he asked.His cold and very calm tone made my body tremble, and I could feel myself sweating from my own nervousness. I wanted to answer him but then I realized that I didn’t know what I was sorry for. “Please let me go home. I’ll make it up to you another day,” I said to excuse myself for the day. I turned to reach for the car door and once again I felt his grip on my arm pulling me back. It was rare for Brandon to act persistent like this, and it just made me want to scream at him out of frustration. I whirled around to face him ready to do just that.“What is it that you really want?” I spat. “To have sex with you,” he replied smoothly.“You know well that that isn’t want I’m talking about…” I said through clenched teeth as my frustration quickly turned to anger. “What’s wrong, Elena? If you can do it with him in the hospital, surely, you can do it with me here in the car…” he said as he stared at me with a v
Lust Contracts Hot Temptation
The lights turned green, and we were on our way again. Our brief yet intense conversation came to a pause. We were getting close to the intersection where Brandon would usually let me off so that I could walk back to my place. The night felt darker than normal, and I wasn’t sure if that was because of my mood or not. Not a lot of cars were on the road which thankfully made the traffic lighter than normal. “Should we go to your room? It’s supposed to be really close by, isn’t it?” he suggested seductively. I turned to give him a curious look. His sudden question came out of nowhere and it surprised me even more to find that he seemed quite serious about it. My lips curved into a smile before I automatically began laughing it off as a passing comment that didn’t mean anything. “Thanks for driving me back,” I said as I reached for the door. There was no point in delaying my departure any further. We had arrived at the spot where I was supposed to get off and so I should do exactly th
Lust Contracts Digging Up Secrets
“Yes, and I like it that way as long as I’m the only one buying,” he replied without missing a heartbeat. I bit hard on my lower lip when I had to admit to myself that I had asked him the wrong question and had invited this misfortune upon myself. His hand around mine felt warm and his grip was firm as he pulled me after him toward his car. Something told me that he wasn’t kidding when he said that. I let out a sigh when I resigned myself to following him silently to his car. Fortunately, there weren’t many cars on the road and traffic was extremely light. That meant that it wouldn’t take too long for him to drop me off so that I could walk back to my place. It wasn’t like I was scared of him, but I did feel uncomfortable being in the enclosed space of the car with him alone. The revealing and brightly colored dress that I had on did not make me feel better and I wondered why I wasn’t smart enough to opt for a pair of pants and matching blazer instead. Everything might have been in
Lust Contracts Sly Bait
The desire that I sensed in his intense gaze made my heartbeat quicken despite the many times that I told myself silently in my head to remain calm. My lips felt dry, and my tongue instinctively moved to lick my lower lip. “Thanks for the advice, I guess. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave so you can get back to whatever it was you were working on,” I muttered softly as I tried my best to excuse myself. “One more thing before you go,” he said to halt my departure.This time it was Brandon who got out of his seat. I turned my head around as he walked toward the worktable in the room. To my surprise, he returned with a box. Brandon came to stand right in front of me before shoving the box toward me. “What is this?” I asked with a hint of suspicion. “Open it and you’ll see,” he said without answering my question. “Ok…” I murmured while feeling slightly confused. It was so like Brandon to be mysterious about everything. With what had just happened between us, I didn’t think
Lust Contracts No Regrets
Maybe, just maybe, things would have turned out differently if he hadn’t left me. If we never broke up, my life might have been better or more normal. I was very tempted to think that it was his fault that I ended up the way I was. If I had been younger and less experienced, I would have thought exactly that. That it was all because he dumped me that I was forced to marry George to save my family’s face. Back then, I was too heartbroken to think straight or resist my parent’s proposal. The man that I chose out of my own free will had betrayed me and suddenly left. I was too shocked to even face reality and the mistake that I made. It made me lose all self-confidence that I could make any correct decisions in my life and that perhaps, my parents were the ones who knew better. If I had been younger, I would have pinned everything on Brandon as his fault. However, I was no longer that young, fresh, and green. I looked up and I couldn’t hold in my giggle and ended up laughing softly at
