CHAPTER FORTY FIVE: A HERO
Last Updated:
2022-11-14 11:45:04"So, what did you say to him?" I asked as we waited somewhat impatiently for the valet to contact our driver. Though we had only been here for a few hours, the night seemed long. Kale stood tall as he normally does, looking out into the dead streets. It was unusually quiet, but peaceful compared to the loud crowds inside.
"What makes you think I said anything?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" I brought my arms up over my chest, crossing them. It was not with attitude or anger, but in the fact that the temperature had changed, and I was now cold. "You had your arm around him like you two were friends, which I know you aren't." He sighed as if he were giving up. Personally, I wasn't that curious to add pressure. I would have let it go the moment he denied saying anything.
"I explained to him that it would be best if he kep

I stepped out the back of the car, not needing the chauffeur to open the door for me. I needed to create as much distance between Kale and I as possible. When I turned around to bid him goodnight, he pretended to pout. I fought my giggle. It was nice to see him like this. It was cute."Please…. Change your mind." I shook my head."It's late…" I started."It's 10pm.""Well…. I'm tired.""My house has a bed…" I shook my head, fighting the urge to say yes, take me with you."I'll see you next week." I walked away quickly. I made my way to the main doors, knocking on the glass. An older, slightly round security guard wobbled ov

I love the huskiness of his voice as he gave me an order. Take off your dress. It brought a throbbing sensation to my hidden lips. It didn’t take long for our clothes to be nothing but a small pile at the side of the bed. Yes Shane, this is exactly what I came here for. I watched as he brought his strong hands between my thighs, pushing my legs separate from each other. His hands rest on my knees as he stares down in between them. The dim light is bright enough to see the seriousness of his face as he takes me in. I am not one to say that vagina’s and dicks are beautiful things to look at, but he stared at mine as if it was pleasing to the eye. He liked what he saw.I am very into my looks. So of course I take care of mine. I am clean and shaved, and ready to be eaten. He pushes my legs up, resting my ankles on his manly shoulders. I watch as he bites his bottom lip just before kissing sensitive parts of my lower leg, slowly making his way up to my center. When his tongue met with

My core clenches as I fall over the edge once again, Shane following me just a few moments after. He asked me to stay, and before I could properly think over my response, I said yes.He set another trap, asking me something like this while giving me the pleasure I so desperately wanted and needed since late last night. My body collapses onto the floor, and he comes with me, leaving his dick inside me. He peckered kisses on the back of my neck as I took deep breaths, still dazed from the morning sex.At my peak, I said yes. I couldn’t believe I said yes. I could tell by the way that he was attached to me that he was afraid once he pulled out, I would go back on my word.“I am sticky,” I said softly, feeling guilty.This feeling wa

I bat my eyes, as my vision clears and I awake from my deep sleep. My body is heavy and relaxed. I am uncharacteristically warm, and as I move to stretch out my limbs, I feel why. Behind me, a body is practically engulfing mine. It's Shane. His arm is draped over my waist, his lips inches away from the nape of my neck. I could feel his rhythmic breathing against my skin. He curls into me, squeezing tighter as if he could sense that I was awake. I struggled against him, trying to loosen his restraint without disturbing him, but he gripped even tighter."What are you doing?" His words come out sleepily."I think it's time I head out." He sighs, his irritation showing."You said you were going to stay.""And I did stay," I replied. I feel the bed shi

In the time that it took me in the bathroom, Alisha and Andre ordered off the menu, turning this into a brunch visit. I sat at the table, grabbing a few sugar packets from the center, knowing that the coffee wasn’t going to be sweet enough. The aroma of the medium roast told me so. My friends were quiet as they watched me. I knew they were waiting for me to explain.“What?” I asked, wanting to keep this indiscretion to myself, but wanting to vent about it at the same time.“What do you mean?” Alisha’s girly voice came out, as she brought her arms up top of the table, crossing them in front of her as if she was getting ready to turn this into a business meeting. “You text us 911, and ask us to bring you clothes. Something is up.”“Yes, what other
Last Updated : 2023-01-05RAINE CHAPTER FIFTY ONE: BAD BITCH
It's Monday. A very sluggish Monday. I had no problem getting out of bed and readying myself for the day. My eyes felt well rested and my first cup of coffee was perfect. The sun was bright and welcoming, yet my body wanted to be slow. If I had a choice, I'd stay in bed, read a good book with a bottle of wine on standby. But of course, that was not an option. Though I had plenty of vacation days saved up, I couldn't decide to use them at the last minute.This was my body telling me that it may be time for me to take a little rest. Maybe I'll look in to taking a week off, just so I could rest and fuck my brains out. I smiled at the thought. How do one dress when they are getting ready to spend the entire day with their shadow, whom they slept with, and kind of had a little disagreement with? Or when they are having to face the client that they are working with, knowing they just got hot and heavy in the back of the limo just a few nights ago?Like a bad bitch. I dress like I've alw
Last Updated : 2023-02-02RAINE CHAPTER FIFTY TWO: READING THE ROOM
POV KALE I watched as Raine swished past me, her hips moving just the way that I like. In that way you know she is doing it on purpose, making sure you are paying attention. The outfit she wore today made her stand out even more than usual, not that she needed help in any way. No matter how she was acting, she wanted him to notice. And boy did he. She left her sweet scent in the room. I took a deep breath wondering how I was going to get her alone. That seemed to be the best course of action when it came to her. She had all this courage and control when there was a room full of people, but these rules she struggled to convince herself to live by would go out the window when it was just him and her. I heard the clearing of a throat, forgetting that I wasn’t alone in the room. The young man that was paid to follow her around all day stared at me, waiting for me to leave. He leaned against the long floor bookshelf Raine had, that held a few books and statues for aesthetic pleasure.

I hung around in the conference room for a few minutes thinking about the conversation that I just had with Karen. My fingers danced upon the hard surface of the round table centered in the room as I replayed our conversation. Was I mean? I felt for her. I remembered being like her, being afraid to speak up. If she wanted to be in my spot, like she would say from time to time, she was going to have to fight for it. This was tough love. “Ahem.” I closed my eyes, wanting to block Shane from my mind. I knew he was coming. It wasn’t like I could avoid him forever. I heard him walking over to me as I sat back in the chair, crossing my legs. I heard the sound of something being placed down in front of me. I opened my eyes to see another cup of coffee placed in front of me. “You left the other one at your desk. It’s not as hot, so I figured I’d give you a fresh cup.” What a suck up. I reached for it. “Thank you.” I took a sip, loving the instant warmth my mouth felt. “How was you

RAINE CHAPTER NINETY FIVE: PARIS
Years ago, I stood at this window, staring down at the world below me. I had chosen a career path, and planned to follow it through until the very end. That path has not changed, but how I get there will. Quality Advertising and Mr. Davis gave me my start, but they were just a step. They were not my end. Looking down at the world now, I take a deep breath and feel an excitement that I haven’t felt in a long time. I hear a knock on the office door. I turn to see Jose standing there with Jordan as his side. “Well, this isn’t a duo I’ve seen before,” I said with a smile. Jose approaches me first. “I wanted to get in my goodbye and tell you the good news before you left,” he said, eyes going around, taking notice in the emptiness. “Good news?” The young man nods. “Well, with you resigning and Jordan moving up, there are some supervisor spots needing to be filled. I am being given one of of those spots.” I grinned. Jose’s work experience wasn’t much, but he was a quick learner.
RAINE CHAPTER NINETY FOUR: CHECKMATE
Tonight. Tonight everything changes. Red is the color I choose to wear to embrace everything that will be coming my way. Something simple, yet classy. Long, and elegant. My beauty will never be hindered. “You look like someone who's getting ready to set a whole building on fire,” Alisha grins, refusing to miss my looks to kill. “And leave no casualties,” I said with a grin. The plan has been drawn up, it has been executed, and we were ready to witness the fallout. I would be arriving at the event solo, but I wouldn’t be leaving alone. Here we go Raine, time to give them all hell.The work week was slow and boring. It was the most interesting thing to talk about besides the ending of upcoming projects and the dinner in which a winner would officially be announced. Saturday night has arrived. I walk through the doubled doors of an upscale restaurant downtown. The dinner experience here was said to be spectacular. Not just when it came to the food or the service, but the fact th
RAINE CHAPTER NINETY THREE: A DISH BEST SERVED COLD
I am sore. Sore all over. But it was worth it. I wake up, my body entangled with theirs in Kale’s bed big enough to house all three of us comfortably. They sleep heavily, allowing me to take in their fresh morning looks. I definitely had a type. The pink lips, the olive skin, the curly and waving dark hair. Both of them are sculpted differently but attractive all the same. I sigh in content. Lately, they had been taking care of me, now it was my turn to do so for them. I am not the type to cook breakfast. It’s not that I can’t, it was just something I didn’t even need to do to myself. I always kept to this fast routine, but today nothing was claiming attention. I would make something as great as Shane’s omelets, but I could handle bacon and eggs. I searched through Kale’s fridge, seeing nothing but leftover take out and frozen dinners. I could just order food from the kitchen, as he does. That was the plus of having a large condo in a shared space. The way the extremely rich live
RAINE CHAPTER NINETY TWO: ADDICTED
“Whoa,” Shane reveals a snickering laughter, catching me by the arm just as I tripped in my heels. One hand clings to his arm to help keep my balance, while the other holds onto the loose fabric that also played a part in my almost accident. “I think you had a good time tonight,” he says, readjusting himself against me. I lean my body up against him, ear finding his chest and heart beat. We stood at the doorway of the building, waiting for the Limo to pull up, so we could make our way home.“It wasn’t the worst,” I said softly. I could hear the slurring in my words, and I knew I had passed the line of tipsy. “Where is Kale?” Shane looks back over his shoulder. “He’s making sure everyone is getting home safely.” Of course he is. He’s such a good guy. “I hit the jackpot with that one, didn’t I?” “Don’t go playing favorites Raine,” Shane stares into my eyes. I smile. “You’re not so bad either,” I joke. “I don’t know why either of you want to put up with my shit.” He grins. “Yeah, y
RAINE CHAPTER NINETY ONE: PREMIERE
“I would have gone crazy on that snake bitch,” Alisha growled, holding her wine glass up to Shane, allowing him to refill her glass. It’s not like me to have wine this early in the day, but after catching Andre and Alisha up on the drama that had unfolded in the last few weeks, it was needed. I sighed, my legs up to my chest. I rest my arms on top of my knees, staring off into space. “Trust me, I really wanted to,” I murmured. “I’m all for a little thrill in my sex life, but in the printing room, where there were cameras… Scandalous!” She continues. “I know that,” I said back. “And I was under the impression that it would be taken care of,” My eyes went to Kale, who was sitting beside me. “Otherwise it probably wouldn’t have happened.” “Hey, I bought the tape off the guards the next morning, and even had them delete the copies!” He tried to defend himself. “Well, regardless, the act in itself was still careless,” Andre says.“Again, we already know that.” I grind my teeth togethe
RAINE CHAPTER NINETY: BOYFRIENDS
RAINE’S POVI’m not sure if Kale’s openness with Karen was a good idea. He may have just added a lot more fuel to the fire, however, I couldn’t hide the fact that I wish I would have seen the look on her face. Kale says she looked stunned. She thought she was going to hurt me by telling of the apparent rumors circulating the office floors.What she didn’t understand was how she now revealed that there was another person helping her in her quest to destroy me. Jordan Cummings. Of course I already had my suspicions, but unless Karen had eyes to see through walls, or binoculars to spy from another balcony, she was not able to see the kiss I shared with Shane. If there truly was a rumor, Jordan was the one to tell what he had seen. And as Karen would put it, it was her duty to pass along the information to Kale.Two against one, this wasn’t a fair fight, but if she was expecting to see me shaking in my heels, she had another thing coming. I already had my moment of weakness.I heard
RAINE CHAPTER EIGHTY NINE: THREATS
“It’s been a crazy and hectic few months, hasn’t it?” Mr. Davis says, standing in front of his wide windows, eyes not even on us. “I’ve seen you two work hard, but I’ve also seen a few flops.” He doesn’t have to look in my direction for me to know that he was referring to me. I refuse to take my eyes off of him. I refuse to have cower like I did previously. There was a long silence. Was he waiting for one of us to say something, or was this pause just for dramatic effect? “It has been decided that we will announce who will be moving up in the company next week.” “It sounds like you already know who will be promoted,” Jordan says out loud. Mr. Davis slowly turns to face us. His eyes travel from my face to Jordan’s before he shows a slight smile. “Of course.” Jordan grins wide like he knows something that I don’t. “However, you know we do ceremonies for things like this. So a small company dinner will be held the following weekend. It will be made up of board members and supervisors
RAINE CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT: GOSSIP
I was warned before we stepped foot off the elevator that I was going to be facing a lot of stares and whispers. It’s not like I didn’t expect that, after all most of these people got to witness my ass on the big screen. They should consider themselves lucky. More than half of the people in here wanted to see what I had to offer, dying to switch places with Kale. Kale stated that many people seemed to stay clear of him, but it was because of the power that he had. He told me to remember my power, and that was exactly what I planned on doing. Never let them see you sweat. Never let them see you cry. Never let them know that you care, and always remain unpredictable. Rules to live by if you want to be top dog. The way the entire floor went silent as soon as I made my appearance… it was enough to send a chill up my spine. If you were looking close enough, you probably would’ve seen me gulp. I wear a cyan colored dress. It hugs me the same as any other piece of clothing I wear, di
RAINE CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN: HER TRUTH
The entire situation wasn’t hypothetical. When I gave my answer, we all knew that it was a serious response to a serious question. I said yes. I belonged to them now, and though I wasn’t sure how this would work, I decided to give it a try. Raine McClaren has changed. Months ago I wanted to be nameless, known only for that one night of crazy hot sex, and now, my bed was being shared with two men that were mine. To say I belonged to them wasn’t even crazier. My best friends noticed the change before I did. It took me a while to admit that my way of thinking was different. I liked someone. I liked two someone’s. That is a big deal for me. I am on uncharted waters. We lay in bed, limbs wrapped around each other in the most comfortable position. Darkness surrounds us, as we were trying to get our rest. I had spent the last week indoors, occupying my time with mindless tasks. Shane would still head off to the office, still paired up with jose. Kale also remained at Mr. Davis’s side
