Mary's POV

Startled from my half-sleep, I abruptly sat upright as the jarring sound of my phone pierced through the silence of the night. Blinking my eyes, I fumbled around, trying to locate the source of the disturbance. Finally, my gaze landed on the table, and I reached out to grab my phone, my heart pounding with curiosity and a tinge of apprehension.

As I glanced at the screen, I saw my boss's name flashing across it. A wave of confusion washed over me, mingling with a sense of unease. Why on earth would he be calling me at this late hour?

    Desmond POVAs I stepped out of the bathroom, a wave of unease washed over me. Mary stood there, her presence unexpected and unsettling. The look on her face was inscrutable, leaving me to wonder if she had overheard us. Fear gripped my heart as I tried to decipher her expression, but it was as if she was caught in a state of indecision, unsure of how to approach the situation.Did she hear us? The question echoed in my mind, intensifying my anxiety. I desperately hoped that she hadn't, that our secret remained hidden within the confines of that bathroom. Yet, a part of me couldn't shake the nagging doubt. If Mary had truly heard something, surely she would have burst into the bathroom to investigate.I watched as Mary hesitated, her eyes shifting from me to the closed bathroom door. It was as if she was wrestling with her thoughts, torn between curiosity and the fear of uncovering something she wasn't meant to know. The silence between us grew heavy, filled with unspoken words and un

    Tasha's POVI sat there with Desmond, his head resting on my bosom, feeling the weight of his hurt. It was clear that what Mary had done had deeply wounded him. Leaving home for a business trip, despite her husband's plea for her to stay, was a blatant act of disrespect. And little does my sister know, the more she treats him this way, the more he finds solace in my presence. It's exactly what I had hoped for.At that moment, as Desmond sought comfort in my arms, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. There was a certain satisfaction in knowing that he turned to me for support, for understanding, when his wife had failed him. It validated the connection we had been building, the unspoken bond that had grown between us.But along with that satisfaction came a sense of guilt. I knew that my desires for Desmond were wrong, that I was betraying my sister and the sanctity of their marriage. Yet, the pull between us was undeniable, an irresistible force that seemed to grow stronger wit

I try to get her to talk but she just bursts into more tears as soon as she sees me as if I'm the reason she's hurt.Her sobs and sniffs fill the silence, that's what we do lately, we don't have anything to talk about, she has grown so quiet since I got back from the trip.Perhaps she was already like that I just didn't notice her withdrawal.

You will be the death of me" Desmond said as he cupped my breast in his hands."Oh fuck! Papi" I let out a soft moan as he used his hands to squeeze them tight."You can suck them, they are yours," I said as I positioned them in his mouth, at this point, Desmond couldn't resist me any longer."Mmm, I love them," he said as he sucked on my nipples. I moaned softly as I felt his warm hands roaming all over my body. His fingers traced the outline of my breasts and down to my stomach. "Easy baby, we have all night" I moaned softly as
