"Why? Is this your first time?" He looked deeply into her eyes with his charming dark grey eyes.
His warm breath breezed across her face and it sent a sensual feeling down her heart.
Kathleen Jones felt her head was slightly dizzy. Probably because she was drunk. She only drank two glasses of champagne at the party before. But why did she feel like her head was getting too heavy?
She didn't even realize that she was now lying on a bed inside a hotel suite that belonged to her domineering arrogant indifferent boss, Mr Aaron Castell.
"You still have a chance to say no," Aaron spoke intimidatingly.
His hands ran across her body, touching her tiny waist, her slender legs, and her tempting thighs. This woman had been his secretary for two months now. Unlike his previous ones, this particular woman was so different. She wasn't the seducing type.
"I saw someone spiked your drink just now at the party. I think that man had an ill intention on you. Do you know who he was?" Aaron who was previously being on top of her now moved aside and sat next to her instead. He was just putting her down on the bed just now.
"It's so hot..." Kathleen felt like her body was burning. She couldn't see clearly the one who was sitting beside her but she knew it was a man.
"Mister... I can't hold it any longer. Please save me," she said painfully while grabbing Aaron's tie. His head instantly got dragged nearer to her face and she kissed him passionately like a woman yearning to make love.
'This must be aphrodisiac,' he thought. Young women often fell victim to this kind of drug when they joined a party. Tonight, his company just held its tenth anniversary party at the hotel bouquet hall. Yet, there were people who were bold enough to do such a scheme in his private occasion.
Aaron felt disgusted by it. He saw a man spiking Kathleen's drink when she was going to the restroom. If it was another woman, he probably won't mind. But Kathleen was his secretary and he knew she was a good woman. Unlike his previous secretaries, she was the only one decent enough and never tried to seduce him. Thus, he felt the urge to save her when he saw her almost fall victim to another man's devious scheme.
"Honey, hold on. You're not yourself right now. You might regret it tomorrow. I'm your boss. Can you recognize me? You'll be going to meet me five days a week. Can you keep a straight face looking at me if we do this?" Aaron broke the kiss and talked some sense to her even though he knew it was quite useless at this point.
"What the hell are you talking about? Are you even a man?!" She yelled at him like a mad person and kept pressing his body against hers.
Aaron's pride hurt a bit when he heard her say that. 'Can aphrodisiac turn someone insane?' He wondered.
"Honey, how about I put you under the shower. Let's go to the bathroom. Your body will cool down after a while," he suggested, still trying to save her virginity if she still have one.
He held her body and made her stand on her feet but she still resisted and kept wanting to lie on the bed again.
"No... I don't want to take a shower... I want you..." she said helplessly while desperately taking off her dress.
"Kat, don't do that," Aaron coaxed her like she was a little girl.
But the woman pulled down her off-shoulder dress and revealed her round bosoms in front of him. Although they were covered by a corset undergarment, his manly desire couldn't escape the temptation. His Adam's apple moved upward at the sight of it.
"Shit!" He cursed in nervousness. He quickly grabbed the comforter that was lay down on top of the king-size bed and covered her chest in a hurry.
"Why are you covering me?! It's hot!" Kathleen got more annoyed. She felt like the man that was looking at her right now was an idiot.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered to him, "Stop resisting it. Just give in." She sounded cheeky.
Aaron was stunned for a moment. He had never seen this side of her before. He wondered if she was still the same woman who came to his office every day to give him the company daily report.
"Kathleen..."
"Ssshhhhh..."
A kiss landed on his lips and she tightened her arms that were wrapped around his neck. The man turned breathless by her feisty behaviour and he had no choice but to follow her leads. After all, she was in trouble right now and rather than letting another man relieve her, he felt more comfortable if he was the one who did it instead.
Imagining Kathleen doing it with another man, his mind felt gross. He couldn't bear to implant such memory inside his head.
"Fine. Fine. Hold on. Relax," he held a sturdy position on top of her and took off his clothes one by one. The woman underneath him did the same as well. Within seconds, they finally did it.
It took him almost three hours to relieve her from the effect of the drug. It was truly exhausting. Although he had no trouble doing it until morning, this woman was so energetic like a hyperactive girl. She gave him no chance to catch his breath while doing it.
He lay on the bed silently while trying to catch his breath again. Kathleen had long fallen asleep right after they finished the fifth round. When his breathing turned normal again, he looked over to her and stared at her face. She had fair flawless skin and golden dark brown wavy hair. She used to tied her hair into a bun when she went to work, but now seeing her hair draped around her shoulder loosely like that, she appeared extremely seductive like a vixen. His manly desire suddenly felt provoked again.
"I'm sorry. I can't help it. Just one last time," he whispered to her hoarsely and screw her once again.
***
The next morning, Kathleen woke up with some intense pain in between her thighs. With her body still lying on the bed, she opened her eyes slowly. There was a vanity mirror beside the bed and it showed her dishevelled look.
'What happened?' She gasped in disbelief and her eyes got fresh instantly. She scanned around the room and saw clothes scattered on the floor. She saw the dress that she wore last night on the floor. Not only the dress, her corset undergarment and her panties were also on the floor, as well as a man's suit, pants and a white shirt. By looking at the situation and the pain she felt in between her thighs, it was clear enough what happened last night.
Yet, she had no recollection at all of what happened. The last thing she remembered was getting dizzy and almost fainting but a guy brought her out of the banquet hall. Then, everything turned blank.
Looking at the interior of the room, Kathleen knew this was no ordinary hotel room. The interior looked luxurious. 'Did I leave the party last night with some wealthy man?' She wondered.
She slowly got up and glanced back to look at the one that was lying beside her. This was the man that she slept with last night. 'Who is he?'
"Boss?" She was truly stunned.She looked forward again, didn't dare to make a sound, in fear of waking up the man that was still sleeping soundly.The comforter was only covering his lower body, revealing his sexy chest and his bulging six-pack abs. Any woman who saw it would surely turn insane. Kathleen was no exception, yet the pain that she felt down there was enough to stop her venereal desire."No... It can't be. I must be mistaken. It's not boss..." she murmured in denial. She glanced at him again and once again was sure it was him. Yet, her mind still couldn't accept the fact."He probably had a twin brother. Or maybe it was just someone else who looks like him," she began to create some unreasonable excuses to support her negation.Her eyes suddenly caught sight of a man's wallet on the bedside table. She took it immediately and checked the identity card of the owner. That wallet must belong to the man on the bed, she was sure of it.
Kathleen tried to remember last night party event again. The only man that approached her last night was Rodney Shaw, her ex-boyfriend. She found him cheating on her three months ago and so she broke up with him immediately. She had gotten over that man, yet he kept pestering her. Last night, the Shaw Corporation was one of the invited guests. Rodney's father, Roland Shaw was the chairman of the company. Rodney must have come together with his father to the event."Rodney Shaw?" She mentioned the name."Rodney Shaw? Shaw? Like from Shaw Corporation?" Aaron knitted his eyebrows. The woman just nodded, concurring his words."I only know Roland Shaw from Shaw Corporation. He's the chairman.""That's his father," Kathleen explained."I see..."They both went silent. Aaron was thinking why Rodney spiked Kathleen's drink last night. Meanwhile, Kathleen was thinking why Aaron asked her about Rodney so suddenly."What about him?" She asked af
"Girlfriend?" Kathleen was shocked.Before Aaron could continue his words, the doorbell of the suite dinged."Room service," a male voice from outside said loudly.Aaron walked to the door and opened it. The hotel manager himself was the one that brought in the breakfast meal. He served the meal on a square dining table at the right corner of the living area. After that, he excused himself from the suite."Come here," Aaron beckoned Kathleen to sit at the dining table.She obediently obeyed him and sat in front of him. A mouth-watering English breakfast meal was served on the table. Looking at the food, her stomach started to growl. The sound that her stomach made was too loud that Aaron heard it as well. Their gazes met and awkwardness suddenly filled the air.'Should I talk first or should I tell her to eat first?' He wondered."Oh, please let me eat first. I don't even get to eat much last night because of the incident,' she was ho
Rodney glared at him for interrupting. Then, he disregarded Aaron like he didn't exist. He looked at Kathleen again and tried to kiss her forcefully. Yet, seeing the danger of his action, Aaron quickly grabbed Kathleen away from him."Oh, no no no. That's not a way to treat a lady, Mister," Aaron mocked him. The people around them began to give disgusted looks at Rodney."Who are you? This is my private matter with her. Stay out of our business!" Rodney got annoyed that he was stopped by that strange guy.The man was wearing a grey suit and looking noble with domineering temperance. Rodney just assumed that he was one of the people who worked inside the company. Maybe just one of the directors. So, what? He was also a director himself inside Shaw Corporation."Her matter is my matter as well. Whether it's private or not," Aaron said coldly.Rodney stared at Kathleen who was hiding behind Aaron. Just then, his mind got the hunch."Was he the
"Whatever. You're harassing my employee and making a ruckus in front of my company, Mr Shaw. So either you leave now or I'll call the police," Aaron threatened him to make him leave."Fine. I'll go for now, Kathleen. But I'm not going to let this go so easily. Just imagine how your father would react if he found out his daughter was working inside his competitor's company. Do you think he will just let you off the hook? Your fate is sealed anyway. It's either you married someone from any affluent family or you'll be nothing and getting nothing. But it can't be Castell. You knew it better than me. It's up to you if you wanted to destroy your life with your own hand," Rodney didn't miss the chance to threaten Kathleen before he left. He entered a red Porsche car and drove off leaving the scene in an instant."What did he mean by that? Why are you not allowed to marry someone from Castell's family?" Aaron asked Kathleen as soon as Rodney left."I don't know what he
"It's fine," Aaron answered a bit cold."Let's order some food first," Sara said casually, ignoring the indifferent gesture given by Aaron.Aaron was a Castell after all, so she was just going to let him slide. She was determined to endure it and just put up with his behaviour. Tonight, she must own this man.Who didn't want to be the woman of the future Chairman of Castell Corporation, the leading corporate company inside that country? Even now, Aaron was already the Chairman of Aeroxx Corporation, the third leading corporate company, let alone when he inherits his father's company later, he would become the wealthiest man in Country H by then. The woman who managed to become his spouse would be the luckiest woman in the country, and Sara was determined to be that woman.The waiter took their orders and left. While waiting for the food, the couple chatted a little. But each time Sara asked him a long question, Aaron would answer only with one or two word
"No, Mr Castell. It's alright. I can eat at home," Kathleen declined his offer. "What do you mean? It's almost nine now. We should eat now," Aaron insisted. "Then you should just continue eating your food here, Mr Castell. You haven't eaten much of your food yet. It would be a waste if you order a new meal," Kathleen suggested for them to just eat the food ordered previously. "What about you then?" "I can just eat Sara's..." "No no no... I won't let you eat Sara's leftovers. Let's buy a new meal," Aaron was almost dumbfounded hearing Kathleen said that. He dragged her gently out of the room and went to the private room next door. A waiter was summoned and took their order immediately. Fifteen minutes later, another set of meals arrived and was served on their table. 'I thought I just need to ruin his blind date and go home. How come I ended up having a date with him instead?' Kathleen was truly dumbfounded internally. She stare
"No, it can't be. My boss is not this p*rverted," Kathleen said and shut her eyes again. "Excuse me?" Aaron could feel his pride hurt a little by what she said. 'P*rverted? How brazen...' he muttered and released himself from her. He went to sit at the edge of the bed. His head slowly turned around looking at the woman who was lying silently on his bed right now. Somehow, she looked pitiful that night. "You still can't get over Rodney yet? What's so good about him?" He asked her loudly as if she was sane enough to talk right now. He didn't know why he felt so jealous hearing her calling her ex's name when she was drunk. "You said that I'm your first on bed. Why aren't you calling my name right now?" He sounded like a jealous husband. After a while, he realized that he was acting ridiculous. "What am I doing here acting like a psychopath?" He mumbled to himself and laughed. "Why is it so hot?" Kathleen suddenly spoke. She felt s
"You must be the less popular Castell, you didn't seem to be able to find anyone to mingle with at this party," Liam approached Adrian Castell from behind. The man turned around instantly at his words and scoffed when he realized it was Liam."So did you. The only Campbell who got invited," Adrian jested back."I talked with Aaron a bit just now," Liam went to stand beside him and offered to clink their drink glasses together, as a sign of affinity. Adrian just went along with it and then they sipped on their drinks while staring at the exact same spot, Sandra and her friends."She probably going to be my sister-in-law in the future. So I ought to come to her birthday party and make peace with her," Adrian remarked."Are you sure? Has Aaron introduced her to your family?""Not yet. Actually, he didn't really seem to give much thought to dating this woman... I mean, he had his entire focus on the company development, I don't think he had the time to date around.""So, why do you think
When Aaron left Sandra alone heartlessly, Seth Martin approached her. He took out a small velvet box from his suit and gave it to her. It looked like a ring box because it was small. Sandra thought it was a ring so she didn't dare to accept it."Just open it first," Seth said solemnly. He didn't put her birthday present on the gift table along with the other presents she got from her friends before. That was because he wanted to give it to her by himself.She took it carefully and glanced at Aaron that now stood so far away. The guy didn't seem to care about what she was doing. Sandra sighed heavily and opened the small box from Seth. There was a pair of pink crystal earrings inside."I thought it might match your personality. You always wore pink ballerina dress when you're teaching your students at the academy," Seth remarked."Thank you..." She replied slowly, showing almost no reaction after seeing the earrings. Her heart was still a bit disappointed that Aaron hadn't thought abou
Instantly, the word 'marriage' came up in Liam's mind. 'Did he mean having a truce through marriage?' He wondered. Aaron turned around and was about to leave him alone."Regardless, you won't be able to get back with Kathy. She didn't use our family name. So, she would be out of the picture for the truce arrangement," Liam said to die our Aaron's expectation of having a chance to be with Kathleen again."Really? Then, there's still Nora. Let's see what Kathy would think seeing her ex-husband marrying her half-sister. Let's just be one big happy family," Aaron emphasized his last sentence purposely, to piss off Liam."So, you're going to just agree to marry someone who steal from you before and ruined your company despite having a girlfriend right now? Look at Sandra right there. She's all happy thinking you love her wholeheartedly. But here you are plotting revenge on my family through a marriage arrangement. You're really a heartless guy, Aaron. Kathy would be so disappointed with yo
In the same week, Liam suddenly got an invitation to go to a birthday party at a local clubhouse owned by Castell Corporation, The Heritage. He felt odd about it because he didn't know who the person celebrating the birthday was. It was actually Sandra Wilson.A few months after Kathleen left, Aaron got back together with Sandra. He did it out of frustration, trying to find a way out of his feelings for Kathleen. The relationship went well but he never go intimate with Sandra. He still kept his boundary with her despite people starting to notice their relationship. In fact, he never made any special announcement or declaration saying that Sandra was his new partner. They were just together casually.On a Tuesday night, he held a surprise birthday party for Sandra. It was her thirtieth birthday party and Aaron invited all her friends and his friends too. Even Liam was included in the invitation. Certainly, Aaron deliberately did that to show Liam how well he moved on from his past marr
Rodney just shook his head as a response and all the policemen left his private room, giving him some privacy to rest. He was about to lie down on the bed again but his phone rang. He took it out from his suit that was placed on the bedside table, thinking that it might be a call from his family. But when he checked the caller ID, it was Nora Campbell."Fuck you! I'm not going to fucking answer that," he cursed alone while just throwing the phone back on his suit. He didn't dare to answer the call because it might be a test from Liam. Who knows what kind of trouble he might get into again if he answers the call from Nora? He had promised Liam last night that he won't bother Nora nor Kathleen again so from this moment forward, he had obstinately decided to never be in contact with any of the women at least for a few months.***"Are you sure about this?" Liam was on the phone with Kathleen. It had been two months since she left the country."Yeah... I think it would be better this way.
He saw Liam staring at him with some kind of menacing expression. Rodney got an instant reaction of trying to escape the room. He stood up and went after the door, but Liam was faster to block the exit."Not so fast..." Liam said with a sinister laugh."You just arrived..." he added and pushed Rodney's chest, making the man sit down again."I... I... I think I can't be too long here. I'm sure my parents won't let me stay out too late," Rodney stuttered in his words, trying to find some excuse to escape."Oh... come on Rodney. We're of the same age. I'm sure you could find some better excuse than that," Liam replied snickeringly."Why do you want to meet up with me anyway? We aren't that close. If this is about Kathy, I swear I never bother her anymore after she broke the engagement. I really never bother or pester her anymore. I swear," Rodney begged to be spare as Liam leaned his body closer to him and his collar was grabbed."You should have walked away silently after Kathy found y
"What did you say? What's his name again?" The man seemed in a state of disbelief. He wished that he just heard it wrongly."Aaron Castell," but Luffy repeated the same name.Liam was speechless. He glanced at his stepmother and the woman could see from his expression that something was wrong."Why?" She asked in anxiousness."Aaron came," Liam murmured to her in an almost inaudible voice."Sir?" Luffy was still in the line, waiting for the next order from Liam."Don't let him in. I'm coming there," Liam said and put down the phone.Victoria wanted to follow him out of the house but he told her to just stay inside. She was not in a stable condition right now and he feared she might lash out at Aaron for hurting Kathleen before. He didn't want the situation to get worse as their family were already enemies with the Castell.Aaron stood beside his car that stopped right in front of the main gate of Campbell's manor. He was waiting for the gate to be opened but the guard said he was not
"It's Aaron."The answer Liam gave made her sigh heavily. She felt like she wanted to berate Kathleen for making such a major decision without discussing it with her. Aaron Castell was the only legitimate heir of Castell Corporation. Even though that young man was not yet in charge of the company right now, everyone knew he would be the one who would replace Edward Castell to take control of Castell Corporation later. In short, Aaron was not someone that anyone would want to mess with. Now her daughter had been associated closely with that man, even to the extent of having married together. If Kenneth knew about this, Victoria was sure her husband would surely accuse Kathleen of trying to betray Campbell Corporation."This is bad. Don't tell your dad about this. I don't want the other Campbell to pick on Kathleen again. Are you sure they had really divorced? Why did they divorce? Wait... during the microchip launching event... we did introduce Kathy to Aaron. Did he not know that she
Later that evening when it was time to clock out from work, Aaron received a call from Detective Leon. He didn't hope to get much news about Kathleen that soon because he just hired the investigator this morning."Mr Castell, I'd check and saw your wife's car driving around the city about three days ago in the morning. And then later that day she parked in front of a hotel, I'm guessing she stayed there for a day. The next day, her car was seen driving into the Campbell's manor. And it never gets out from there until today. I think she's probably there inside that residential," Detective Leon explained through the phone.Aaron was silent to hear that information. But a smirk slowly appeared on his face. 'So, you're not that innocent after all. In the end, you returned to your vile family again,' he muttered internally, slightly having his mind assuming the bad about Kathleen again. He felt a bit disappointed that she left him before, thinking that maybe he was wrong. But after the det
