Z A R A The sound that just came out of me was a reaction from something that ruins a perfectly blissful moment, transitioning into something of a more confused and distasteful moment. I scramble backward, while Alejandro already has his shirt off, revealing his perfectly toned body. His belt is on the floor, but he pauses before completely slipping out of his pants, he's looking at me confused.Why the hell is he confused?"Alejandro... I... I don't want this, not now," I try to convince him, I hope my expression is weak enough, pouty enough, displeased enough to sway him."You're still refusing?" He asks with disappointment as if I owe him something... Do I?I know he just helped me reach an addictively, wonderful climax, more than just a couple of times but... I don't owe him anything... I think."I don't want to force you to do anything..." His words trail off. "But, it's rather upsetting that I made you cum quite a few times and didn't receive anything in return. Wouldn't it be
Z A R A Alejandro violently forces me down onto the floor, my hands splayed flat against the floor to catch myself from falling. "Be a good girl for me—be a good girl for Daddy."My mind is in utter chaos, all different emotions bursting forth, anger, sadness, betrayal, foolishness. I stare at my dark engagement ring, the dragon wrapped around the dark ruby red stone. It's so ethereal, the way the stone looks as if it glows red, as if it has a source of light powering it, it's so beautiful...I almost forgot what it signified, distracted by its glamour until Alejandro pushes my legs apart, lining himself up. The short-lived peace was broken by the reality of his dick against my spread-out folds.I'm not sure if I'm here, at the moment, I don't know if I'm screaming or begging him to stop as the weight of his hands on my back feels more apparent. Maybe I'm just helplessly drowning in my despair with only silent tears running down my face. Nothing matters because even my mind could no
Y A S M E E N "Sit," I instruct Marcus to sit down on the barstool in the kitchen. "Take off the jacket.""Don't try anything. I won't hesitate to put you down," he eyes me."I'm a little hurt that you think I can be that indecent," I frown.He squirms out of his suit jacket, wincing as it slowly comes off. The sleeve of his white dress shirt screams bloody murder. It's soaking in red liquid, more than I've ever seen in my lifetime. I wet a clean towel that is hanging in the kitchen and a pair of scissors from the drawer to cut open his sleeve. By the time I turn around, Marcus' shirt is already off, leaving the bloodied shirt on the ground. I couldn't look away, God knows I tried to blink to snap out of it but I couldn't. Tattoos cover most of his neck, stopping right above his chest. My God, he's well-built and muscular. The abs are so well-defined that I couldn't comprehend them, there's no way he merely got them from only working out. There are bits and pieces of tattoos scatter
Z A R A "You're lying, that's Hrithik Roshan," Yasmeen whispers to me while eyeing Frank suspiciously. "Hrithik Roshan is your bodyguard and you're just hiding it.""Why would such an A-list Bollywood actor be my bodyguard, out of all things?" I giggle. "But, honestly, I thought the same thing when I saw him. I couldn't believe he wasn't Hrithik.""Mister," she calls out to Frank. He turns his head to look at her. "Are you related to Hrithik Roshan by any chance?"His expression doesn't change. "No.""Do you know who he is?" She continues to ask."No," he answers flatly."He's lying. I just know he's related to him," she frowns, looking at me. She turns back to him, "Are you single?""Lady, why is your friend as crazy as you?" He finally breaks character.I burst into a fit of laughter. "Unfortunately, she's a tad bit crazier than me."He grunts out of annoyance and goes back to pacing around the front door."Oh, Alejandro told me to let you know to tone yourself down or you'll end u
Z A R A "Zara, my love, did you take my car keys?" Alejandro asks, standing opposite to me at the kitchen counter. I stare at him hazily, not sure what's going on. "No..."He smiles at a genuine, heartwarming one. "Don't act naive. It's literally dangling from your hand." I look down to see a remote car key in my grip. "Oh..." He walks toward me but I walk around the counter, avoiding him. It's an instinct at this point."Zara, I need to go to work... don't make me chase you," he says with a smirk. I sprint into a run with the keys in hand, not sure where I'm going or why I'm running."Zara!" I hear him call out after me. A burst of giggles spurts out of me as I run through the long hallway, wind rushing past me, making me feel free. "Catch me if you can!""Oh, I will!" He calls out, his voice is closer than I thought. I'm looking around, noticing the only room close enough is our bedroom. I quickly run in but before I can look for a place to hide, Alejandro grabs my waist from behin
Z A R A I'm silent, staring at the wall behind him because I can't say the same, I can't bring myself to say I missed him because truth be told, I don't think I missed him. Or maybe I can't bring myself to say it because I did miss him and that's absolutely repulsive.His unoccupied hand runs up and down my leg, grazing against the sheer fabric of my tights. Goosebumps rise on my skin, my heart beating faster with his touch. "These look sexy on you," he whispers roughly into my ear. "I want to rip them off and fuck you," his breathing is uneven as he grips my thigh."Is that your fetish?" I raise a brow. "Making people wear tights so you can rip them off?""And what if it is?" He chuckles."I mean, I wasn't expecting that. It's very... mundane for someone like you," I think out loud. "Oh? And why do you think that?" He raises a brow."I don't know... I thought you'd have weirder kinks or fetishes considering the type of person you are." I shrug my shoulders."Oh, my love, not to wo
Y A S M E E N I never explicitly tell guys when I like them but they tend to figure it out because I'm not very good at hiding it either. Aayan... Aayan seemed like a dream, he was so sweet and funny... not to mention, hot. He was out of reach for sure and honestly, I never wanted to reach out. There was no reason for me to even try with him because his league was supermodels and I was just me.I won't lie, it's not easy for someone to waver my confidence. I genuinely loved who I was in high school! Rejection didn't scare me, I was content with my appearance, I was loud, bold, and happy. But Aayan managed to ruin me in ways I never thought someone could. God, if I could scrub the memory out of my head, I would. I would sell my soul to forget that day. Philip had no right to bring that up again... He had no...I touch my cheek and realize there are tears running down them. I quickly wipe them away and try my best to put a smile on my face."Marcus!" My cheery voice somewhat cracks. He
Y A S M E E N The guitar strums out as I feel everyone's gaze on me, the feeling has adrenaline rushing through me. I feel my heartbeat in my throat as I take in a deep breath and let it out, "You know that I'm a crazy bitch // I do what I want when I feel like it // All I wanna do is lose control. Oh, oh."The crowd's expression goes from shock to an instant energy boost as they cheer and bounce around to the music."But you don't really give a shit // You go with it, go with it, go with it // 'Cause, you're fucking crazy rock-n-roll."My eyes trail to Marcus, who's just as shellshocked, if not more.Grinning, I look him right in the eyes as I sing the next bit, "You said, 'Hey, // What's your name?' // It took one look // And now we're not the same // Yeah, you said, 'Hey', // And since that day // You stole my heart // And you're the one to blame."My mind travels to how my mood instantly shifted from feeling insecure to safe once Marcus stepped in between Aayan and me. A bigger s
this is the (more or less) tragic ending I originally had in mind before changing it due to popular demand! Enjoy (or sob idk 💀- - - A L E J A N D R O Regrets.Something I never expected to feel.I watched the dark blood seep through her clothes staining them the color of death. Her eyes slowly draining any little life it had left as she begged for my mercy. She begged me to put an end to her misery, begged me to drive my knife through her chest. She did once tell me her favorite flowers were white roses but here I stained them red, disappointing her one last time before she runs away from me.Regrets.More regrets.But now here I am, dressed in black standing in front of the only person I gave a shit about."It would be appalling to ask for your forgiveness now, wouldn't it, Zara?" I grip the flowers in my hand. "Say, what do you think about my suit?" I stand back to give her a full view of it. "Does seeing me dressed like this still make you smile?"Silence.I smooth down the wr
"Fuck, Yasmeen. Take it off," he demands."Patience, my king," I giggle.I start to leave a trail of kisses down the center as I pull down his boxers. Once it's completely off, his sizeable erect cock springs out in front of me."I see the big guy has missed me," I trace a finger down his length."You have no fucking idea," he grins, sitting on the edge of the bed. "I want to watch you shove my dick down your throat.""Your wish is my command," I say as slide out of the bed. I position myself in between his legs on my knees before taking his cock into my mouth, wetting it with my saliva.Marcus throws his head back, gripping my hair and occasionally pulling and pushing his cock deeper into my throat."Fuck, Yasmeen. Deeper, go deeper. Let me feel that pretty mouth of yours wrapped around my cock," he groans.I do as he asks and takes in as much of him as I can into my mouth. My hands simultaneously get him off as my tongue and mouth work around the tip."Look at me," he demands. "Look
Y A S M E E N Marital bliss only lasts so long before we go back to being normal. Marcus only let it last a couple of days before he dashed out, working his usual odd hours.But, God, is he so perfect? Just seeing him, even if it's just a glimpse, makes me giggle like a school girl. That man is all mine to devour whenever I please.With that being said, I've devoured him enough times yet I can never get enough of him. I'm always on a high around him yet he's so laid-back. A perfect match, I suppose?Nowadays, Zara is being watched like a hawk by Alejandro because she's a couple of months pregnant. This also means I get to spend less time with her because he barely ever leaves her side and I don't get to talk about the fun stuff while he's around.I've mentioned children to Marcus but he's definitely not ready and I'm totally fine with waiting because I'm very content with his full attention towards me right now.Maybe sometime in the future.Can you imagine? A little me running aroun
Five Years Later -"Liyana! Look! Papa's home!" I grin with relief as I carry a sleepy Alanna in my arms.Alejandro had been on a business trip for the last three days and it gets tough to care for the kids without him."Papa! Papa! Papa!" She runs with her hands up in the air, impatiently waiting for Alejandro to pick her up.Alejandro picks up Liyana and gives her cheek a kiss. "My beautiful Princess, how was your day?""Me and mama played!" She says excitedly. "We missed you!""Oh, that must've been tons of fun!" Alejandro says. "Look what I've brought for my girls," he holds up a big bag of toys, shaking it in front of Liyana.She squeals, grabbing the bag. "Papa's the best!" She gives him a tight hug, making my heart melt. This never gets old."Please keep your voice down, my Jaan [my life], your sister's trying to sleep," I say in a quieter tone.My sweet Liyana nods. She quickly slips out of Alejandro's arms and runs towards her room to play with her new toys in private to not
Z A R A "What's on your mind, my love?" Alejandro asks softly."Our wedding anniversary is coming up," I state."Is it, now?" There's a mischievous tone to his voice.He pulls me closer, and my back curls back against the chest."It is," I say slowly. "Can I ask for something?""You can ask for the stars, my love, and I'll find a way to present them to you," he murmurs against my ear, giving me goosebumps.Our relationship has been... as stable as a relationship can be with all the horrible things that happened to us in the past year.Of course, we fight. And I always—and will always—bring up the way he's hurt me in the past. There's no coming back from that and Alejandro has accepted that. He knows I'll bring it up whether on purpose or by accident because those events burned an unfixable hole in my heart. I may be able to forgive but I'll never be able to forget.8But he's trying, whether it's genuine effort or not, he is trying. We go to weekly therapy sessions to work on ourselves
M A R C U S "Alejandro's not at home," Zara says once she sees me at the door. "He'll be back soon, though. You're welcome to wait inside. I'm baking cookies!" I raise a brow, she's much cheerier than usual.The events that occurred a year ago have left a lot of us shaken up to this day. All of us took it hard but the women took it the hardest.Zara hasn't been wholeheartedly happy since then. I assume she just pretends to be okay a lot of the time. It's not hard to miss the lack of spark in her eyes.Sometimes, when she's with Alejandro, the spark does come back, very slightly but it's there. From what I heard from Charlotte, the couple has been going to regular therapy for their relationship for about a year now.I never saw Alejandro as a therapy guy but it's obvious he'd do anything to make Zara happy, she's his whole entire world.A twinge of jealousy arises through my chest. I chose Alejandro, but he chose Zara. But maybe it's not that, maybe that's not what's making me enviou
A L E J A N D R O Minutes.Hours.Days.Weeks.How long has it been since I heard the sweet sound of her laughter? The crinkle at the corner of her eyes when she smiles? The smell of her sweet fragrance that whiffed around in the air when she passed by? What about the way her hands fit wholly in mine? The way one touch of her skin set my entire heart on fire? The way she had me wrapped around her finger without even knowing it?Will I get to feel that warmth of, not only her skin but her presence ever again? Her silhouette itself brought me enough peace to last days and now seeing her still, cold body laying motionless is just a reminder of my biggest failure yet.I'm losing myself, physically and mentally. I need her to show me where I belong, remind me of who I am, and remind me why the thought of losing her is tearing me apart.I scoff at myself. Why the fuck would she want me? Why the fuck would she want to be with me after all of this? She'd be happier drifting far away from me
Y A S M E E N I didn't know. I lied. I lied to Philip. I don't know what Elijah told him. I don't know what Marcus's true intentions were. I don't know if Philip was saying that to spite me but Marcus's reaction didn't help."You're quite obviously not his first choice", Philip's words ring in my ears. "Now that his boyfriend found a new toy, he needs something to keep him preoccupied too."I think deep down inside, I knew I was a second choice. Obviously, I was the second choice. If he was ready to get over someone, the next would be the second choice for a bit until they build the relationship up to become the first choice but..."Tell her how your initial plan was to mess with her because you were envious of her close relationship with Alejandro. How you thought you'd get to Alejandro by hurting her," Philip had said.But did he truly want to hurt me because he couldn't bear my bond with Alejandro? Were his intentions evil to begin with?If I die today, I want one last chance to a
"Zara, no!" I hear Alejandro shout before numerous bullets fly across the room.Miraculously, with all the pain and unstableness, I land a hit on Philip's chest right near his heart—or maybe even on his heart. I feel too disoriented to be able to confirm the exact location of the bullet. I mentally thank Charlotte for all her training. Now that Philip's out of the way, maybeAlejandro can...I look down as the adrenaline pumps through my body, numbing me, and realize the worst of it. Unfortunately, two of bullets from Philip's men ended up in my body and I instantly slump against the floor, bleeding out at an extremely fast rate.Alejandro manages to grab the gun off of my hand and in the matter of seconds, lands to shoot all four men point-blank in the forehead before they could even blink. But the only reason he was able to do so was because of the distraction I created."Where was this talent when we needed it?" I choke as I tease him one last time.He falls down on his knees, pick
