Night + Rum = Passion TWENTY FIVE
LEAHMy entire body was on fire, I could feel myself dripping down there, Ethan has always had so much effect on me, but I never expected it to be this much. “What am I even saying?”It has always been this much.Him, putting me on his shoulder, my nipples pressing onto his back was the end game.The clothes I was putting on was a thin layered night gown that barely concealed my body.How Ethan’s eyes roamed me when I pulled the door open was the start of it all, I tried really hard to pull myself together, but the moment my nipple grazed his back, I lost all self control and craved his touch. I badly wanted to be under him. When he put me in the car and walked off to the other side, It was as if I would run mad. I nearly lost my sanity.Pulling him close to me the moment he leaned in to buckle up the seatbelt, the only words I could utter was;“Take me right here, please.”“Sweetie,” his husky voice resonanted. The fire within me made his voice twice as husky“Take me, Ethan,” I moa

RILEY Nathan’s scent filled his room, I mean it's his room after all. The familiar scent of his perfume coaxed me to sleep. This will be the first time I'm sleeping out since I opened my eyes to a new life, but I totally didn't mind. I was honestly so comfortable that it scared me at some point. “What if I wake up one day and realize Nathan isn't who I think he is? What if I find out the reason why Leah wants me to stay far away from him?” When morning came, I rose from the bed and took my time to shower. Nathan had placed two clothes on a chair last night and I had worn one of them to sleep. I guess the other one was for this morning. Wearing his shorts and shirts while bare on the inside was a totally new feeling on its own. “When did you get this dirty minded, Riley?” I was shocked myself. After using my finger to brush my hair and staring at myself in the huge mirror in his dressing room, I walked out of the room and headed down the stairs. Once I got there, I found Natha

NATHAN“Do not come an inch close to me,” Riley warned.The look she gave me scared the hell out of me.“Baby,” I whispered.“I'm not your fucking baby,” she warned, her hands vibrated.Her eyes held fear, resentment and anger.I felt life leaving me.“Baby, What's wrong?” I asked yet again, taking baby steps towards here.She backed away, sending glares at me.“I lost my child because of you, I keep living like I have no childhood, I fucking went through hell because of of you and what! You're asking me what's wrong? When you know exactly what you did, you monster!!” She yelled.“Baby, I swear, I….”“Call me baby one more time and I'll put my fingers into your eyes.”“How did you feel when you ruined me? You got me pregnant, and still went ahead to stand me up on the wedding day. You're a monster Nathan Martinez. You do not deserve to be with any woman!” She screamed, tears rushing down her face.I was weak on the knees, I consider myself a strong man, but right now it was as if life

RILEYA joker, that was exactly what I felt like. You know one of those clowns with silly makeups, that's exactly what I felt like. The moment my memories came crashing into my mind, I felt like a fool, an idiot, a senseless thing. I've been living like a stranger in a new city all because of this prick and worst I let myself get swayed again. I let myself get swayed by his handsome face yet again.Now, I understand why my school mates used to call guys with handsome faces jerks. Had it been my memories never came back to me, I would have let myself get deceived and who knows, this time I wouldn’t make it out alive.Watching him question what was wrong and acting all nice towards me, further made me realize the fact that he was mentally unstable. The fact that he has the effrontery to act like he didn't know what he did, to act like he was completely clueless marveled me. The moment I stepped out of that house, the only thing I had in mind was to curl up in my bed and cry. I didn't wa

RILEY I flagged down a cab, no the cab was there as if it just dropped someone off. I just got in. But before I could shut the door Nathan rushed right in, dragging me out of the car and slamming the door shut.“What the fuck are you doing!” I growled at him.My eyes instantly went to the driver to apologize, Nathan had slammed the car door really hard and no driver would let that off.But the moment I looked at him, he smiled. It wasn't just any smile. You know that smile of psychopaths in Korean dramas, the smile that sends chills down your spine, the smile that just gives off the fact that this person was here to hurt you, that's exactly how the cab driver smiled.“I'll see you again, beauty,” he waved at me and drove off.I stood rooted to the ground staring at the car’s retreating shadow.“You're going back home with me right now!" Nathan suddenly announced, the authority in his voice annoyed the crap out of me.“And who are you again?" I asked.My body was shaky, I was trying t

RILEY After spending the night at the hotel. I woke up with my mind already made up. I was leaving for New York this morning. There was nothing left for me here. I've been living in Leah’s shadow all these while. I've worked at her clothing company for three years when I have never had any interest in that.And then, looking back at how I dressed and all. It was as if Leah wanted to change every single thing about me to erase the past or something. One thing was sure, I wasn't the type to wear revealing clothes, but looking at the photos I took these past few years, I realized my sister had tried a lot to change every single thing about how I used to live and who I used to be. As if it would wipe the unpleasant memories that came crashing yesterday. “I will and could never change for a man,” I told myself.Rising from the bed, I took my time to pick out a dress from the heap that lay on the couch in the living room. Last night, I requested for a decent dress but then the manager brou

Nathan A lot of thoughts ran through my mind as Riley was being reckless. Seeing her put Nancy in her place was really heartening but seeing her run in to the road and board a parked vehicle was the most stupid thing I had seen in all of my existence. In seconds, I opened the cab door and pulled her out, yes she was upset with me and I couldn't figure out how to deal with her rage especially since I was very instrumental in her memory recovery. Everything was happening so fast, one moment I was preparing breakfast for the both of us with her in my clothes and the next we were on the streets fighting. It was all draining but I wasn't going to let her slip off my hands so easily, I wasn’t going to lose her to Nancy's psychotic schemes.Even after all of that, Riley was still being adamant and head strong, she was still arguing with me and not listening. “That man nearly kidnapped you, Riley. If I didn't pull you out of that cab you would have ended up in God knows where. You could

RileyI always wanted my memory back but having it now felt like hell, my life three years ago had caught up with me, everything Leah tried to protect me from was flushed down the drain all because I could remember. The pain was back, the hurt, the feeling of betrayal but this time around there was more, regret. I couldn't help but think about what had become of my company, my dream and what hurt the most was the added revelation of who Nancy truly was.It all hurt so much, the pain in my chest, my running nose and high fever yet all I wanted to do was get on a plane and go back in time.I had no idea what lay ahead in waiting for me, pieces definitely of my broken life but my memory was back so I definitely knew my way around the city I had spent twenty four years of my life before Nathan Martinez ruined my perfect life.Remembering him brings a bitter taste of bile in my throat. Nathan had gone from being my crush to my disaster all in one unfortunate night with rum."Ma'am, the pi

RileyI sat in the aircraft and admired the man by my side, he had once been my fantasy and dream but he was finally my reality. Mine to keep without worries. "Did anyone ever teach you that it's unladylike to stare?" Nathan caught me staring at him and I immediately looked away."I was not staring." I tried to deny it but he just chuckled and looked out the window.We were returning to Texas where I was going to give my testament against Nancy and send her to jail for good.Waking up and seeing Nathan’s injured arm, I knew he could give his life for me so I gave him another chance in mine."Riley!" Leah literally jumped on me when she spotted me from where she stood with Ethan holding my name up.We had stayed a few weeks in New York until Nathan’s arm was completely healed so I hadn't seen Leah since the whole saga with Nancy.I hugged her very tight not willing to let go."I'm sorry Riley, I'm sorry for not ---" "Shhhh, today is a happy day and the past is in the past so let's not

LiamWatching Nathan slide to the ground I knew he knew something we didn't know but I didn't insist because I was not sure I wanted to expose Tina to just any information. I easily consented to letting Nathan ride in Tina's car because I had my own plans."What am I going to do if I lose the both of them Liam?" Tina cried.Tina was very attached to my sisters and the twin brothers as well."Hey, look at me. Nothing will happen to any of them, I called the station already they should arrive any moment and we'll lead them to Nathan, there we'll find Riley too. Dead or alive but I need you to be positive." I comforted her.Beyond my duty to keep her happy as her husband, I had a duty as an older brother to keep my sister safe as well and I was not going to neglect that."I think they are here Liam." Tina sat on the porch and waited for the police to arrive. We got into my car and I led them to where Nathan was."Please the both of you just stay here, we don't want any collateral damage

EthanI knew letting Leah get anywhere close to Nancy was not good but I had a different plan up my sleeves. Nancy was laughing like a maniac."Oh dear, you are going after the wrong person because your darling sister will be nothing but a corpse in a matter of minutes save your energy to pay your last respect to her."Nancy was intentionally pushing Leah but I held her back."She's not worth any of your anger, she's talking trash. Riley is safe with Nathan, okay? Calm down." I held her close to my chest but Nancy would not give up or drive away."Just go away from here Nancy and never show yourself here again." I knew better to expect Nancy to leave yet I turned to go back into the hotel with Leah."Why are you doing this? Please just let me go already." Riley's voice sounded over the phone Nancy held."That's your big sister right now." Nancy sneered, I observed that she had come down from her car and she was leaning on it while holding the phone out."Come and speak to her so you

Nathan I staggered a bit and my phone suddenly felt too heavy."What is it Nathan?" Liam asked. We all heard the gun shot and saw the call disconnect but they had not seen the image I was sent. I slid to the floor devastated and shattered, it was the end of the road for me, I could not save Riley, I wasted three years of my life with that useless Nancy yet I could not beat her at her game and keep Riley safe.A thousand thoughts tormented me, Riley's last words rang in my head. "Save me if you truly love me Nathan." She had pleased but once again I failed.I failed her.I got a text on my phone when I would not pick up the several calls I was receiving from Ethan. I did not pick up because I did not know how I was going to break the news to him that Riley had been shot dead but I opened his message. If I could not save Riley, I was not going to spare Nancy either."Nathan hurry, save Riley. Not everything you are told is true." The text was like a warning but I knew it came late. E

NathanThe situation seemed helpless since I was sure that Nancy was in Texas, I tried to figure out who had abducted Riley, a part of me told me Nancy had something to do with it but I needed more than just my sixth sense to lead me to the answer I sought."Nathan i think we should call the police," Liam said worried but I was not going to sit around and wait for the police. The police was going to ask us to wait a couple of hours before reporting a missing person and I was so broke on time that I couldn't afford so many hours.Riley would have been long dead if that were to be the case.I called Nancy."Hi baby, did you call to apologize and return to me before your little lover is killed? Typical of you to save her life again not so." She laughed hysterically.Liam wanted to respond since I put the call on speaker but I stopped him."Stop your silly game Nancy. I swear to you, if you harm a single hair on Riley's body then I will not spare you." "Relax, alright fine, I won't harm

Riley"My head hurts, my - oh my goodness. Ouch!" There was a throbbing pain in my head, it ached like I had been hit with Thor's hammer so I held it to keep it from falling off my neck.I tried to hold my head but I couldn't, that was when I realized that my hands were bound, I struggled to free my hands only to discover that my legs were also bound, I looked down and realized I was completely strapped to a chair.Wait?! I was really hit on the head. Where was I? I looked around and carefully observed the very unfamiliar room, I tried to recall how I got there and I completely remembered. I was in the porch in Liam's house with the others when the power went out, I had motioned to take shelter in the house immediately to avoid any impending danger but that was when I received the blow on the back of my head and at the same time, a cloth with a pungent smell was put over my nose and mouth so not only could I not scream, I could not even breathe.I had struggled for some time with the

LEAHFEW HOURS AGOI picked up my phone after such a time with Ethan and saw a lot of missed calls from Riley. I bet she was worried sick about me but her text calmed me and I knew she knew I was safe and with Ethan. Kudos Nathan, who else would have told Riley that?I tossed my phone aside and snuggled closer to the man that made my heart beat regularly. He was beautiful, I traced my fingers along his jawline and admired the stubble on his jaw."What are you doing?" Ethan grabbed me by the waist and pulled me over him without opening his eyes.I chuckled and tried to free myself from his hold. "Let go of me you." "No," he opened his eyes but he looked very serious. His expression and tone didn't match my jovial one."I mean it this time Lee, I'm never letting you go again. Ever again." What was he saying?I was just joking but he was being very serious so I dropped my gaze to his bare chest, my face completely flushed."Where are you going" he asked when I tried to roll off his bod

NATHANSeeing her cry further strengthened my resolve to protect her, she looked vulnerable and delicate, her face plae and pink as she wept in her hands."What did I ever do wrong? What was my mistake?" Riley had questions that no one could answer."How can you tell me that Nancy, the same Nancy that I loved like Leah my sister..." She choked on her words amidst sobs "That same Nancy was responsible for the accident that cost me my child, my memory and almost my life." Riley broke down completely but the good thing was this time, she broke down in my arms. She was not pushing me away or fighting with me, she was just leaning on me for physical and emotional support and I was comfortable with our progress so far."Babe you need to calm down and you need to come with me." Like she was shocked by electricity, Riley jolted away from me like she only just realized who she was embracing so casually.I could have remained quiet but the longer time we spent there the more endangered Liam a

NathanEverything was happening so fast yet in my favour. I was halfway to success but I was still yet to tell him the entire plan. "I would call Ethan right now and ask him to stay back and keep an eye on that bitch, I'm sure he is making plans to chase after Riley and I with Leah.""Good, please do that right away." Liam encouraged me, you could see the worry lines etched on his forehead as he spoke.Ethan's line kept ringing but he didn't pick up. So I dropped him a text hoping he'd see it as soon as he picked his phone up. Ethan was the kind of guy that checked his phone often because he believed in the power of communication more than anything else. "Did you get through to him? How is Leah? Is she still with him?" Liam's questions were endless but I did not count it against him because if was in his shoes I'd have started throwing punches about. "Not yet but I left him a message." "We can make do with that for now. So Riley would stay here a while I guess to keep her from har
