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
I lifted my half-bowed face as I was about to pass the entrance because someone said my name. My eyes widened in shock and disbelief at what I saw; now, standing before me was a man from my past."Phillip," I say almost in a whisper. I don't know how to act, but all my feelings for him are gone, and I'm just surprised to meet him here."Hi, you look different."He smiled with a smile that was still the same as before; it had been one of my favourites, but now it felt normal. I introduced Sean to him; Sean just smiled politely, and then I gave Phillip an excuse to leave immediately."I hope we can meet again another time," he said before we parted. Sean returned my hand and headed to his Mercedes Benz, parked in the restaurant parking lot. I put the pizza in the centre seat of the car, then buckled my seatbelt."Who's he?"I sighed. I didn't want to talk about Phillip, but Sean already asked."Just an old friend."My senses raised one eyebrow and looked at me with a questioning look th
I saw someone standing next to the SUV, a man wearing a white linen shirt and black jeans. He rolled his sleeves up to his elbows; the man smiled and opened the SUV door for me."I'm Laurent, Ma'am. I work with Sam. Mr Valentino asked me to take your car home."I gave him a weak smile, and then he gave me the keys to my Ferrari. After that, I got into the SUV. Mom Ramia called me while I was in the elevator with Sam. She asked how I was, and I had to admit I was unacceptable. Sean seemed to have called her, and Rani would come to see how I was because my mother-in-law was in Dubai. Mrs. Liam greeted me with a worried look, and then he asked if I wanted to eat something; I said I wanted to eat his chicken macaroni soup. The woman smiled, and I also asked for tea.I lay on the bed, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly; I wanted Sean to be here. The bedroom door opened, showing the figure of Rani; the woman immediately approached me with an anxious expression."
I sat on the bed massaging my aching calf; lately, I’m very quickly tired, maybe because of my pregnancy. Doctor Grace advised me not to be too busy and to do activities that drain energy. The bedroom door opened, revealing the figure of Sean, who had just arrived. I smiled and stood up to him, his arms outstretched for me. I immediately went into his arms, inhaling his heavenly scent, pressing my cheek to his chest, his lips kissing the top of my head, and his nose inhaling the smell of my hair.“I missed you, how are you?”I smiled at his confession. I opened our arms and looked at him.“I’m fine.”I decided not to go into detail; he just got home, and I didn’t want to argue. He smiled his relieved smile, and then his lips found mine, kissing mine hard and deep. I replied the same way. I miss him so much; my days feel empty without him around me. Our tongues danced and intertwined, pouring out our passion and longing. My hands ruffled his hair while both of his hands squeezed my ass
He slid my panties out past my legs, then bent my knees and spread my thighs while gripping my inner thighs, his tongue brushing my sex surface. I let out a desperate sigh and resigned myself to enjoying whatever he did to me down there as my body stirred. His activities down there, he reprimanded me so that I could only sigh and move my head and hands. His lips kissed my feminine lips; I trembled, passion squeezed me even more cruelly."This is mine too," he said in front of my sex, my breath getting shallow. His tongue teased my clit, and I was jolted by the delicious sting that spread throughout my body. My heart was beating wildly, so I could hear its pulse in my ears. My blood rippled in my veins so that my pulse seemed to explode."Sean, aaahhh please... eugh..."I slurred his name and pleaded, His tongue in and out of my core, dancing a crazy, hedonistic dance. My senses disappeared somewhere while my Inner Goddess was asleep on her red sofa with her fur blanket covering her bo
We were silent for a while before he started.“One of the nannies at the orphanage did it to me every time she fucked me.”My soul seemed forcibly pulled out of my body; I swallowed my saliva roughly, and his arm around me tightened even more. That fact was like the wind in winter and formed sharp, pointed ice crystals piercing my scalp.“I was nine years old at the time and it went on for two years, until I finally ran away from the orphanage and met Ramia.”My heart fell apart at my feet, oh, my God! How could a child like him experience such a tragic thing?? Tears gathered quickly in my eyes.“A friend of mine who also lives in the orphanage told Ramia about what I experienced while at the orphanage and the treatment I got from my nanny who turned out to be pedophilic, at that time I decided to run away after she whipped me for refusing to satisfy her.”My senses and Inner Goddess were mute; tears started to roll down my face and wet my pillow as well, trying my best not to make a
Sean was on the phone on the living room balcony while I was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. I was baking bread when suddenly morning sickness attacked me. I turned off the stove and then shifted to the sink. Sean’s hands immediately massaged the nape of my neck while I was still vomiting in the sink. I straightened my body when the nausea was gone. Sean was standing before me, his gaze serious and careful, dammit! Maybe it’s time.After our hot shower a while ago, we dressed and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. Still, I wasn’t planning on starting this conversation.“Is there something you didn’t tell me?”My hands rested on the edge of the sink. I nodded while looking down, mentally steeling myself to say this. My Inner Goddess squeezed the bottom of her dress, her expression tense.“I’m pregnant,” I said, then raised my face to look at Sean. He was shocked, and his golden net seemed to harden; the next second, he turned away from me while combing his hair; he cursed an
Ronald went to the kitchen to get a snack. While I turned on the television, my cell phone, which I placed on the table before me, rang, showing a foreign number. When I was about to answer, the ringing stopped; I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly and then put the thing back in its original place. Ronald brought me a potato chip snack with barbecue seasoning, a cola drink, and canned orange juice. We watched a replay of Roger Federer's match at Wimbledon, which had just ended in England. Caroline came with Andrew an hour later, the couple joining us in the living room."Where's Sean?"Caroline looked at me with a curious, questioning look. I put the potato chips in my mouth while shrugging my shoulders. I wasn't in the mood to care about her. Caroline stared at me with narrowed eyes as I glanced at her before returning to the broadcast of the tennis match that was still happening. Ronald didn't seem to care; he was focused on watching the game. I went from the living room to the kitc
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
