APRILWe've been stuck in a traffic for more than 30 minutes now. The mood between us hasn't shifted since he lashed out at me earlier at the juvenile center. We haven't said a word to each other and I couldn't wait to get to school and get out of his suffocating presence. But the gods seems to have other plans because an announcement soon came from a megaphone, announcing an accident involving almost 7 cars a couple of miles ahead of us. It was the cause of the traffic and we were going to be here for at least 3 more hours.It was almost 10pm.Nick slammed a fist on the steering wheel after the announcement was done. I could tell that he was angry and he probably didn't want to be in my space for a minute longer than necessary. Well, that makes the two of us. I looked around the area we we were in. It was an economic area and because I haven't had anything to eat since early in the afternoon, I was already hungry. I could find a café, grab some pastries and food and stay there ti
APRILI collapsed against him, panting as if I just ran a marathon. It did feel like a marathon except that this was much more strenuous and pleasure.My breathing was just becoming regulated when the shame started to set in. I've done it again. Slept with Nick in public where we could have easily gotten arrested.I raised myself up slowly, careful not to meet his eyes. I was about to lift myself off him when he held me back and before I could process the reason, he ducked his head and sucked one of my boobs into his mouth.Holy shit!I was clothed but with the strokes of his tongue, it felt like I wasn't. His tongue continued its ministrations while his free hand grabbed my other boob and he squeezed with so much force that a scream-like moan left my mouth.I wanted to take my top off, I wanted to feel his mouth on my skin without any barrier.I attempted to pull my top over my head but he wouldn't let go. It seemed like all he cared about was sucking me."Nick, please... I need to t
APRILA parched throat and cement dry tongue woke me from sleep. It wasn’t a good one anyways, it’s lasted for about ten minutes after I’d struggled hopelessly to find sleep and I knew I might not be able to sleep back afterwards.I turned to my side hoping to find Nick in bed, but all there was were ruffled sheets to show that he'd gotten out of bed at some point. I figured he must've realized how weird it’d be to share the same bed with a woman he had no romantic inclination for and decided to crash in another room. That honestly didn’t bother me because I expected nothing of the sort from him or any of his friends, so I pushed the thought away and got out of bed with a yawn before throwing on a robe and setting out to find water for my desert dry throat.I found the kitchen easily, but what I didn’t expect to find was a shirtless Nick seated opposite the counter and sipping from a steaming cup. Whatever was in that cup was nowhere near as hot as he looked, his chest was a sinfull
BROOKE“Tell me why I shouldn’t start pimping you to other men so you can at least prove your worth?” mom asked like it was completely acceptable dinner conversation. In her painfully misguided defense, that was appropriate dinner conversation to her. It might seem berating and outrightly vulgar, but that was mom’s only way of interacting with me since I was a child. She’d groomed me to do everything in my power to please powerful and influential men in return for favors of various kinds. And after being used as a pawn of her all my life, I didn’t take her words lightly because I knew she could sell me off to as many men as were willing to pay to fuck me if I continued to piss her off. “Maybe if I make a rooster of men to run through you and pay me a substantial amount of money it’d make up for how useless you’ve proven to be, but I doubt any amount of money could compare to the endless privileges we’d be swimming in if you could manage to hold down your engagement,” she carried o
APRILExcitement buzzed through me as I looked through my application one last time.Competitions were my favorite part of schooling, it had always been so since I was a toddler and nothing changed up till now. We didn’t have much competitions at Enigma, but the few we had were always bloody, students would go to any length to win and one couldn’t blame them because the school always put up pretty amazing cash prizes to be won. This time around, we were gearing up for the Jaw Wars, an annual oratory competition where the winner went home with a ten thousand dollar cash prize, an all expense paid summer trip, and free tutoring sessions. While I enjoyed competing, the main reason I was signing up for the Jaw Wars was because the cash prize would help me pay off a huge chunk of my dad’s crippling debt that he’d left behind. For some reason, the loan sharks he owed thought it was wiser to bug his college daughter to pay off his debt rather than his ex wife who was swimming in wealth. U
APRILHow did Natalie manage to rope me into hell over and over again? It was an unsolvable mystery to me. We both knew that I didn’t care for parties. The sweaty bodies, deafening noises, random puking, marijuana filled air, the painful small talks, the provocative gestures from every corner, the parking lot full of random people fucking, the pressure to play beer pong, the irritating catcalling…I could go on and on, it was a fucking tedious experience and I had no idea how Natalie enjoyed them so much that she felt the need to drag me along. “Is it too late turn around and just have a night in with Vampire diaries and pizza?” I proposed a night of actual fun and relaxation. “That ship sailed hours ago, and besides,” Natalie paused and made a dramatic screeching noise as she honked outside a gate I assumed was the venue of the hellish gathering, “we’re here already!” I groaned and sunk into the passenger’s seat as the gates opened, wishing I could freeze time and disappear or so
APRILI’d expected an outburst. Insults raining down from every corner. Accusing fingers being pointed at me. Heels being flung my way. Literally anything but the puppy-looking sad eyes that were regarding me after I’d just been caught red-handed and meted out an apology. Despite apologizing, I still thought that I’d be met with hostility, but Brooke seemed too worn out with the argument to react in any way other than plain sadness. For some reason, that made my heart hurt on her behalf. The fact that she was too overwhelmed with sadness to wield any other emotion spoke volumes about their relationship. It was glaring that it was more of a burden than a relationship and it was slowly wearing the poor girl out. “It’s fine, at least I don’t need to give you much of a backstory to explain how shitty our relationship is, since you’ve seen it firsthand, you understand that it’s a complete shit show and nothing more,” she sunk to the floor, wiping her face with the back of her arm. I f
APRILThe message came in right after my evening bath, and just like the two other times I’d received those orders, I couldn’t turn it down. Ace: my place, twenty minutes. My fingers slid over the words on my screen, my stomach tightening as I wondered what they could possibly have in store for me this time around. Judging from how exhilarating and adventurous the last two times at Ace’s mansion were, I could only expect the same this time around. For a while I’d thought that they’d never exercise their plaything privileges over me all at once again, that they’d become content with fucking me on separate instances, but it turned out I was wrong. As much as I knew I should think of it as nothing but berating and blackmailing, I couldn’t fight off the budding excitement in the pit of my stomach as I threw on a jumpsuit and hurried out to flag down a taxi. Luckily for me, I was at the mansion with six more minutes to spare. Ace and his friends were sticklers for timing once it was a
APRILSoon, his fingers took its place, grazing over my needy and swollen clit in a way that immediately made me cry out in ecstasy. I pressed my eyes shut, leaning my back against the wall and instinctively spreading my thighs further apart to give him more access.He chuckled lowly again and then obliged.With one hand around my waist to hold me to himself, his fingers continued to lazily trace a line from my clit to my pussy lips before teasing my entrance in a way that drove me so fucking crazy. I was breathless already, my chest heaving and my heartbeat thumping in my ears and lower tummy as he continued to torture me.My eyes fluttered open to find him watching me with a depth of desire and passion in his eyes that turned my knees to jelly. He’d never looked at me that way, something about it was different and incredibly stimulating, but I couldn’t place a finger on what was different about his stare. I didn’t even have the energy to figure it out because he was now using the w
APRIL I quickly gathered myself, swallowing and taking a step back. “You should leave,” I told him in a stern tone, but he just gently shut the door behind him. “I just want to get cleaned up, and this is the only bathroom,” he pointed out, “that’s all, trust me,” he raised his hands in surrender.I didn’t trust a word that left those devilishly hot lips of his though, and it was getting harder and harder for me not to look away from his face and at the rest of his gloriously naked, muscled body. I hated myself for being so foolishly attracted to him. “We’re not having sex, Xander. It’s not happening, so don’t get any weird ideas,” I stood my ground, “I mean it, one funny move and you’re getting the boot.”He chuckled lowly, his eyes dancing over my naked body for a few seconds before he responded. “Slow down, princess,” he smirked teasingly, “I’m only here to wash up and as a gentleman, the only reason I’ll be approaching you is to help you scrub your back.” I knew I should’ve
APRILThe next morning, I woke up to the curtains being drawn open and sunlight streaking into the room. At first, I shut my eyes back and tried to force myself to fall back asleep, but the warmth of the sun hitting my skin wouldn’t let me. So, I gave up on that endeavor and decided to just embrace the morning light. So, I yawned and stretched my arms, feeling oddly well rested despite the upsetting events of the last couple of hours. “Rise and shine, princess,” Xander’s deep morning voice was surprisingly soothing, “go brush your teeth, please. I’m asking nicely.” “Princess?” I couldn’t help but repeat, the way he said it soaked something in me that I needed to bury as soon as possible. A grin touched his lips and he ran a hand through his hair in a sinfully hot way that only he could pull off. “Yeah? It suits you,” he winked, “now get off your ass and go brush, you’ll be glad you did when you’re done.”With that, he reached behind him and opened the bathroom door for me while
APRIL After an insufferable dinner, I left Xander in the dining room and headed back to the room for another shower. When I was done, I walked out and was mortified to find him seated on the bed, shirtless and in pajamas pants like he was getting ready to sleep in the same bed as me. I frowned and pulled the strings of my shorts to knot it as I walked towards the bed. “You can’t sleep here,” I deadpanned, stopping at the edge of the bed. He looked at me daringly and then stretched out himself comfortably on the bed before putting his hands behind his head to prop it up. He was a little too comfortable for someone that was getting on my last nerve and I hated how much he seemed to be enjoying every second of frustrating me.If nature wasn’t biased to humans, I’d be kicking his ass to a pulp right now. “I can, and I plan to,” he answered calmly, totally unnerving me like he’d been doing all fucking day long. “Fine, I’ll sleep elsewhere then,” I started to angrily stomp towards the
APRIL Again, my body had betrayed me. I couldn’t believe that I’d enjoyed every second of his touch, knowing fully well that I shouldn’t even be reacting in the slightest to that asshole. There had to be something wrong with me, something deeply disturbing that would explain why I fucked the annoying asshole that kidnapped me and felt nothing but overflowing bliss. I wanted to pluck my eyes out of my skull and drown myself in bleach, I just felt like I needed to punish myself for foolishly succumbing to his touch. I knew better than to let myself be whisked into anymore sexual escapades with Xander after the whole stripper thing blew up in my face, and yet that’s exactly what I allowed to happen. Something told me that I could’ve fought him a little harder. Maybe if I did, he’d have taken the clue and not gone any further, but my dumb body melted under his touch in minutes. It was at the very last second, after I’d had a groundbreaking orgasm, that I came back to my senses like l
XANDER It took me weeks of nearly annihilating my mental health to dust, but I finally found her. The joy I felt when we got the drone footage of April running around with a puppy in a garden while wearing the prettiest white sundress was indescribable. I ate my first real meal that afternoon, and that was a big deal because I hadn’t eaten anything but sour candy since I set out on this search for April. And I’d filled up on wine to stay sane of course. On the worst days, I indulged with vodka as well. But after finding her, my wolf and I regained our appetite instantly. I needed to replenish my strength so I could fuck her as much as I intended to, she was going to feel every last pent up sexual tension that she’d caused for being away from me for so fucking long. After filling up on enough food to regain my true strength, I came up with a simple plan to steal her away from him smoothly, I couldn’t afford any complications that would lead to me not having her all to myself for a
APRIL The shower was barely relaxing, but I got through it quickly and stepped out of the bathroom.Xander was the type to give me his clothes instead of provide me with any new ones, so I was a bit taken aback to see fresh female clothes that looked like they’d come straight off a Forever 21 rack sitting on the bed. “This changes nothing,” I muttered to myself as I shuffled through the cute clothes. Every single one of them was adorable and simple, and that was exactly my style. And since Xander didn’t pay enough attention to me to have picked up on that detail, I knew that a female staff whose style accidentally matched mine must’ve picked them out. Tucking that piece of information in the back of my mind, I threw on a cute pink two piece that did a great job at covering me up than the other outfits in the pile. Then I pulled my hair into a ponytail and stepped out of the room with one purpose on my mind… Escaping from Xander’s tyranny and finding my way back into Nick’s warm em
APRILFor forty fucking minutes, Xander ignored me. I kept snapping at him and telling him how much of an asshole he was for whipping me away against my will, but he didn’t care about my feelings in the slightest. He just kept watching Wrestle Mania reruns on the screen before him and filling up on grapes, cheese, and biscuits. It was so annoying that he seemed to be having the time of his life while I was pissed beyond explanation. At some point, I gave up on getting through to him and tried to stress eat, but everything in sight tasted like cardboard paper in my mind. Eventually, I settled on filling my tummy with champagne while simultaneously trying my hardest to stay sane. “Mr. Xander, we’re preparing for landing,” the pilot announced, “please take the necessary safety measures, and would you like the hostess to buckle in your guest for landing?” “Nah, I’ve got her covered, thank you, Samuel,” Xander answered before immediately getting out of his seat. He stood before me, e
APRIL A groggy feeling made my joints feel wobbly as my eyes reopened. However, I didn't even have time to dwell on that when the first sight that welcomed me was Xander’s face. I turned my head to the side, wondering if I’d been missing him enough to start hallucinating this clearly. How could he be right in front of me? I blinked again in disbelief. Hadn’t I blocked him out of my mind by immersing myself in every moment with Nick? My head felt awfully heavy and I tried to steady myself by pacing my breathing, all while wondering how I was possibly seeing Xander. I wasn’t kissing him nearly enough to have conjured him out of nowhere, Nick was doing an amazing job of making me forget him, that’s for sure., I was about to pinch myself to snap out of whatever dream I was having when the events from before I lost consciousness came flooding in. Someone had covered my mouth with a clothe and immediately I breathed in whatever substance it was drenched in, I immediately passed
