My hands were busy tidying up my things on the table when Ariel came and stood in the doorway of my room. My attention was drawn to him; he smiled with an unpleasant smile, whether it was because the current atmosphere was fairly quiet and a little tense. After all, there were only the two of us, or because Ariel does have that kind of smile, I don't know, but I smiled politely back at him. The man stepped in without me asking and closed the door. He came up to me and stood right in front of me. My heart was pounding uncomfortably, and my mind was sounding the alarm. What does this man want?? What's with him?? He came over to me and stood right in front of me."Hello Ariana, you look like you always do."Ariel was trying to tug a few strands of my hair behind my ear when I reflexively avoided his hand; his eyes showed surprise, and his expression looked hurt because I avoided him. The next second, he smiled like a moment ago. I feel uncomfortable with this situation. We are alone in t
He spoke against my neck, so his breath brushed against my neck, the fine hair around his jaw scraping it against mine. It hurt a little because he had shaved a week ago, but I liked the sensation. He moved his body a little away from me, and then his hand moved to the hook of my skirt at the back. My body opened it and pulled the thing down so that it fell on my feet. I stepped out of the item and then turned towards him.My lips attacked his lips again when my shirt left my body. Sean squeezed my ass, and a knock on the door stopped our hot kiss. Sean looked annoyed because of this disturbance. He approached the door and then opened it like he wanted to remove the door from its place; maybe it was Sam. A few minutes later, Sean came back and approached me after closing the door; I stood with my hands folded under my breasts.“What is it??”He seemed to be thinking about something. Sean removed his shirt, walked over to me, and threw it on the floor.“The boy has become a fugitive fr
“Do as I say, or this knife will stab you in the neck.”My blood immediately cooled; oh my God, he’s here, how can he be here?? My mind screamed out Sean’s name, but I didn’t move. Fear gripped my stomach, and I felt my body turn to stone.“What do you want, Ariel?”My voice trembled; his free hand caressed my buttocks and then up to my waist; my stomach immediately swelled with disgust at the thought of his touch sensation on my body.“WHAT DO YOU WANT, ARIEL??!!”I screamed in frustration as his hands were under my breasts. I purposely asked loudly to distract him, hoping Sean or Sam could hear my voice. Ariel hissed sharply near my ear, the tip of the knife pressed against the skin of my neck. His hands leave my body, and he holds me by placing his arms in front of my neck so I choke a bit.“I just wanted to have fun with you while we were at school, but you screwed it up.”Sean came with Sam; they looked at me with shocked eyes. My gaze met Sean’s, and I could see the fear in his
Caroline smiled with a sparkling face when Andrew officially became her husband. Sean and I clapped while standing as the other guests did in front of our chairs; he kissed my cheek and gave me his charming smile that could melt an iceberg at the North Pole. He’s so handsome in a tuxedo black, white tulips on the top of her right chest add a sweet impression to her appearance. At the same time, I wear a peach-colored rose petal dress without a strap; my hair is tied up neatly, a hair ornament in the form of a round artificial rose petal crown in the same color as my dress is wrapped around my head, I’m like a queen’s lady-in-waiting, the expensive stilettos that were my birthday present adorn my feet.After the main event was over, followed by the first dance that our newlyweds had to do today, Caroline seemed happy. Her smile never left her face. We also danced with other couples on the dance floor accompanied by live music by a simple orchestra band specifically for weddings. I enjo
After the photo session ended, Caroline and Andrew were leaving for their honeymoon; all of us and the guests still in the party area gathered in front of my terrace to let the bride go. A shiny black Mercedes Benz was parked in the yard not far from where we all stood; a bouquet of white roses adorned the front of the car. I gave my special hug once again when Caroline was about to head to the car she would be riding."Open the gift after arriving at the hotel, you understand?"I reminded him of the present, three days before the wedding Caroline was eager to see my present. Still, I wouldn't let her. It wouldn't be interesting if she saw it. My guess is correct: Caroline and Andrew are on vacation to Barbados; Caroline loves nature tours. I'm sure she'll call once she finds out what I gave her."Always, Ana, we will always be sisters."I nodded with my feelings of emotion. Caroline cried first, and I calmed her down. I don't understand the culture of crying on wedding days, but mayb
In the afternoon, we went to Changi Beach; the beach's location is close to the airport, so the view of the buzz aeroplane is what makes this beach unique. I prepared snacks and other picnic supplies to take to the beach this afternoon. I wore an ivory white beach dress with sunflower prints on my knees and rubber sandals that felt comfortable on my feet with yellow and white stripes. Sean looks relaxed in faded knee-length jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt whose sleeves are rolled up to his elbows is dark brown, and his sexy legs are wearing casual male sandals the same colour as his shirt. Sean stomped on the gas pedal of my Ferrari so that the car slid through the streets of Singapore. The wind blew a few strands of my hair, but my beach hat kept my hair from falling apart.Feels songs by Katy Perry, Pharrell William, Calvin Harris, and Big Sean accompanied our journey. Sean sang and tried to imitate Pharrell William's voice when singing this song; I laughed at his ridiculous effort wh
"When do you want to go to Hawaii??"The question made me smile; I thought maybe after my busy life at school was over."Maybe after the art show at school is held," I replied, then raised my face to look at him. The warm sea breeze against my skin soothes my other hand carrying my wide beach hat."Alright, the deal's been made; you should make the place official when we come.Sean looked down at me. I smiled and nodded my head. I can't believe this: I will have a resort in Hawaii, oh my God! Too many lucky things., I turned my face to stare at the expanse of the sea. An air buzz plane passed over us. The sound of the plane's engine surprised me a little; it was like flying chasing the sunset, a fantastic sight. I reflect on the life I've been living lately, marrying a man who, at first glance, is almost flawless, but not many know that he has a cruel, sad, and dark past. That man, on the one hand, gave me many beautiful new things. Still, on the other hand, he also gave me sad and em
Sean raised his eyebrows and sighed heavily. His attention was turned towards me. Good job, girl! Her bright smile complimented my senses; my Inner Goddess rolled her eyes with a bored expression and again covered her face with the New York Times magazine she was reading right after returning from hiding.“You must know why that happened,” he replied, looking at me with a cautious look, a glimmer of fear lurking behind that gaze.“I know it affected you a lot but you did so well in your career that you have achieved everything you have today, everyone wants big achievements like you.”I looked at him with a reassuring look, but on the other hand, I wanted to know what he thought about this; his forehead revealed a faint frown.“All of my current achievements can be achieved by everyone if they want to try depending on their choice, but the past that I went through was not a choice, Ariana, I was not as lucky as people out there, no one wants the past like I did. I have and not everyon
Five years Later. Enjoy the view that is currently visible in our backyard. Sean is enjoying his role as a father to our son, Danish, who is five years old; they are playing with their potato gun. Sean taught our son many things, and it’s no wonder that Danish could accept everything his father taught him, even though he could improvise well. I smiled through the kitchen window as I watched Sean act out a shot from Danish, dramatic and ridiculous. He dropped his body on the grass garden while placing one hand on the part of his heart because the bullet hit it. Danish approached Sean and then dropped his tiny body onto the man’s body. Sean hugged him, and they laughed together; my smile grew wider, seeing the behavior of the two of them.“Mrs Valentino, lunch is ready.” Mrs. Liam interrupts my time enjoying the good stuff. I approached them and invited them to lunch from the kitchen to the backyard. Danish ran towards me as I came to the father and son; I lowered myself so that I was
I smiled as I closed my eyes; it seemed like he wanted to tell me something tonight. My Inner Goddess pulled her fur blanket up to her neck, ready to listen to a bedtime story from Sean Valentino.“Really?? I feel so married to a man who has everything like you; all men dream of being in your position. You are exceptional in the eyes of the world and mine.” My sleepiness was fighting with my consciousness; Sean inhaled the scent of my hair and buried his nose in mine, one of his arms wrapped around me like a vine.“Only my current life that many people want, before this, I was just an outcast with nothing, I didn’t even have the courage to approach you when we were children, and until now I will not be able to experience this happy life. If it weren’t for you wanting to marry me.”My life before meeting him was very different; it never crossed my mind to marry a man like Sean. My criteria are only about my life. I smiled as I thanked myself for this beautiful life.“I still want to kn
Shaking hands with Sean, Detective Charlie sat on the sofa across from us. He has a firm face; I’m sure people must respect him because his attitude currently looks formal and doesn’t seem very friendly. Perhaps people who work like him must behave in front of clients like today so that people provide correct information.“All the evidence submitted by your personal assistant has been investigated by us and we are connecting it with the existing case, we are very pleased with you providing accurate evidence, Mr Valentino.”“Then, what made the detective come here??”I glanced at Sean, who seemed to have an intimidating face on him. Detective Charlie cleared his throat, trying not to be affected by the stern look on Sean’s face, but it seemed my black and white knight was very good at this. My Inner Goddess looked tensed on her red sofa like I was.“The perpetrator said that your wife ... I mean Mrs Valentino, had contact with the perpetrator while still a professional.” Detective Char
My mother-in-law approached me, half running; Rani and my father-in-law were behind her. I got up from my seat and immediately hugged Mama Ramia. She started crying. She ended her hug and checked my condition, her eyes wet with tears.“How are you?? Are you hurt?? How is the baby?? Is he safe??”Panic and fear were so evident in her questions that I replied I was okay, and he was a little relieved by that. My father-in-law also hugged me; after that Rani, she sobbed on my shoulder.“He’ll be fine.” I tried to sound okay in responding to the current situation. Still, unfortunately, I failed to look strong in Rani’s eyes, just the opposite. We sat on the bench I had sat on a moment ago, my brain replaying our memories together this morning in the kitchen. I can still clearly remember everything we went through so far: all those laughs, his seductive gaze, his smile that could make women in this world melt, and all his ego and attitude that turned my world upside down. All those exciting
It was Sean’s voice. I was too late to escape; Ariel immediately locked my neck using his arm.“If you make a sound, this gun will expel your fetus in a lifeless state.” He put the muzzle of his gun behind my stomach. Sean appeared along with Sam and Jared; his gaze turned threatening; he just looked at me for a split second, then looked back at Ariel.“One step means one shot,” Ariel said; my body was trapped in an ice block. Sean ordered Jared to bring Joana’s body immediately; the man lifted Joana and left this tense situation. While Sam checked Zafrina’s condition and then carried the woman’s body away from this place, there were only three of us now.“You have to pay for what you did to my father.”“My business with your father is finished, besides he can’t pay his debt to me, isn’t it all because of you? I know what you’re doing, Ariel.”Calm and seemingly in control, though I could see the fear in his eyes clouded by his vigilance. Ariel laughed; that sounded mocking. This man
“Everything is alright?” the girl asked as she entered my workspace. “Please tell Carlos, I need some hot chocolate milk before I go to a meeting, I haven’t had breakfast yet.”Joana swiftly left, regretful for wasting my time this morning with that silly thing with Sean overtaking me, but I enjoyed it. I smiled again. Carlos came with a glass of warm chocolate milk; he smiled kindly at me before leaving my room. I dropped my ass into a soft leather chair, drank my chocolate milk up to half a glass, and left my room to attend a meeting. Joana and I got out of the elevator. When we got to the floor of the meeting room, a man who was the janitor of this building was cleaning the floor using a vacuum cleaner; at first glance, I seemed to recognize the man. Joana turned my attention to the topic of today’s meeting; when I entered the meeting room, all the financial staff of this foundation were already present. I immediately started the meeting, which I had postponed due to my lateness.
“Ana... honey.”I felt someone shake my body. I opened my eyes and stared greedily at Sean’s face, which was only inches from mine.“Oh, Sean, I-I....”The cry came out, along with the fear that overtook me at this moment. Sean calmed me down by kissing my forehead.“Relax, I’m here with you, you’re safe.”I tried to stop the crying and calm myself from the damn nightmare. Ariel is a threat that cannot be underestimated; Sean wipes the tears on my face.“What’s the time now??” I distract myself from the bad feeling after the nightmare.“Five in the afternoon, you slept for about two hours.”Sean got up from his current position on top of me.“I’ll get some water,” he said before leaving. I just nodded. Leaning on the headboard with the pillow behind me, I remembered the nightmare I had a moment ago. It was just a dream; maybe I was too worried about its existence. However, I can’t deny that the man is a threat that could turn into a horrible thing at any moment. I closed my eyes and e
I reassured him by nodding, his lips finding mine, kissing me passionately, and then we were carried away by the kiss. My hands are behind his head, stroking his hair while he presses the nape of my neck to deepen our kiss. My desire is shaking because of this kiss. I want this man more than anything; he is only for me and mine. I close my body towards him until I climb on his lap. His fingers nimbly unbutton my blazer one by one, then unbutton my satin shirt. Our kiss broke when my bra still covered both of my breasts. His face immediately buried between my breasts, inhaling my scent greedily.I held back my moans as his tongue brushed against the mound of my breasts, biting my lip to keep my cries from escaping and embarrassing me because Sam could have heard me. He also unhooked the bra that was in front. Passion stabbed deep into my core at the groin as the top of my breast was in his mouth, and one hand squeezed my other breast.Unlucky! I’ll reach my peak in a minute, his free h
I just finished a meeting with the business people who took part in running this foundation. I was surprised by the presence of someone. Phillip was here and became one of the team of experts for this foundation. Shaking my hand, he smiled at me, a smile that never changed, and that smile that made me fall in love with him and feel unrequited love.“How are you??” he asked, looking at me with his charming smile, but Sean’s smile was still more dazzling; my Inner Goddess smiled lopsidedly in response to my words.“I’m good, thank you for everything you do for this foundation,” I said sincerely.“I am happy to be able to work with your husband, he is a very competent and noble-hearted person, this foundation would not exist if not for him.”I agree with that statement; Sean is one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs who is generous and has a foundation that establishes hospitals, schools, orphanages, colleges, and rehabilitation centers for people who have experienced trauma due to being vi
