Elena

I lay motionless on the bed, shrouded in lust and confusion. My gaze was still a little clouded, but I could see everything.

I knew who it was. I knew what she did, and I could see the conflict in Ronan’s eyes.

I had never been this embarrassed in my whole life. Not only that, but I was also unsatiated. These emotions made me frustrated, and angry, but not stupid.

I quickly reached for the duvet and covered myself, taking time to allow Ronan to deal with the situation.

How dare Darcy enter our room uninvited!

A thousand emotions flashed through my head, but none of these made me angrier than the complicated look in Ronan’s eyes.

The woman he was about to make love to was lying silently in his bed, but his thousand percent attention was on Darcy Taylor-the person who rudely interrupted our couple moments.

I was angry, but I didn’t cry. Darcy, on the other hand, quickly began her waterworks.

“Why did you do this to me, Ronan? Why did you touch her?” She began, and I could s

    ElenaI walked out of the bathroom feeling refreshed. I had to take a bath, since my sweat soaked the bed and I couldn’t hide what was happening to my body either. My thighs felt sticky, and I felt like I had a bad itch down there that needed to be scratched-just that my husband could only do this scratch. The urge to get laid got so bad that I could have sworn someone drugged me if I had been outside the house. I have never touched myself before, but for the first time tonight, I felt like I could only get a peace of mind if I did so. I couldn’t tell if the next few months would be this difficult, but I was ready to sail through. Doctor Harold already informed me about how some pregnant women become extra sensitive and honey. I hoped I wouldn’t experience that, but I realized tonight that this prayer of mine hadn’t been answered. I couldn’t have everything, after all. I felt so ashamed of how my libido controlled me tonight, yet I was still grateful that no one else was here to wi

    ElenaI couldn’t get a wink of sleep after waking up at dawn. Now that it was finally daybreak, I decided to grab some breakfast. “Good morning, boss.” Ruth greeted weakly after she set the table. Ever since she found out about my pregnancy, she had been obsessed with feeding me food that could aid the baby’s development. I haven’t tasked her to do anything, but I couldn’t help but admire her more when I spotted what she cooked. “Boss, Blake told me what happened. I’m…” Oh, I get it. Her son told her about our encounter in the kitchen. No wonder she was walking on eggshells around me all morning.“Ruth, that’s enough.” I wasn’t ready for any apology. As I heard yesterday, I got to the hospital in time because the mother and son wanted to thank me for what I did for Blake's school. That was when they found me unconscious and took me to the hospital. I don’t know what would have happened if they hadn’t shown up. “Ruth, you make me out to be an inconsiderate boss whenever you talk lik

    ElenaFor the first time after a long time, I felt alive again. It’s been two months since I moved away from Lockwood to settle in Saint City. Initially, I felt free to move away from the three-year bondage I kept myself in. However, I still felt alone, knowing I was only passing the time till I birthed my child. Adding Ruth and Blake to my small circle has been more than a blessing to me. If I left the baby with David, Ruth could help him raise her, giving me more peace than I ever envisioned. To think Blake has also warmed up to me so much in the past few weeks. Now, he freely shared his little moments with me at home, and I even made him follow me to the gym. Well, I should say I followed him to the gym since he was the one who showed me this gym that had machines and other equipment that fit my condition well enough. My days didn’t feel so lonely anymore. Blake has even agreed to treat me more like a sister than his mother’s boss. Business has been expanding massively, and I ca

    Elena As our car moved along the road leading to the hospital, I felt my heartbeat double up. I couldn’t control how chaotic it felt against my ribcage. I guess I was just nervous about meeting my dad again after such a long time. Harold has reported his performance over the past few weeks, and I can only say things are just as they were. He didn’t get better or worse. Back at the flower shop, I saw someone who looked like one of our college colleagues. She was Darcy’s minion, who could never pass up a chance to humiliate me—not that I cared though. Even though I felt I dodged her in time, I could only imagine she didn’t see me. I had nothing to fear in this city since I wasn’t on some wanted list. However, I only hoped she wouldn’t go and blab anything to Darcy. I was in no mood for Darcy, Ronan, or any other Simpson right now. Well, speaking of the Simpsons, I had to find a way to send a letter to Uncle Simpson. It has been a while since we last spoke, and I missed him so much

    Elena“Dad, meet Ruth and Blake. They have taken very good care of me, just like you would. I brought them here to say hi, dad. They are my family now, and I hope you can open your eyes and see them. They mean the world to me, dad-just like you do.”Blake fixed a heated gaze on me, and I could feel it. My words might have shocked him, but that's still how I felt. They have supported me without asking for anything I'm return, and if they were not considered family, I couldn't tell what else to call them. David has been away for the past two months, and these two have been keeping me company. Whenever I had any weird cravings, even at odd hours, Ruth was there to take care of it. I remember one night when I craved oysters in the middle of the night, but we had none in the house. Throughout the hours that led to daybreak, I couldn't get a wink of sleep. Ruth stayed with me, not complaining a single bit. Even when I told her to go to bed, she refused and still stayed. Blake went out wi

    ElenaMy heart beat violently in my chest, even though what Ruth said wasn’t anything scary. The implications of the words were rather what scared me. If I agreed to take father away, what next? “His condition is not stable, Ruth. We cannot move him from here.” I knew she hesitated about something, but I didn’t ask her anything. I wasn’t being particularly truthful with her, anyway. How could I tell her I feared what would happen when I take my father away and then I’m no more? How would I explain to Uncle Simpson when I finally move my father away from here? How would father cope when he eventually woke up to my absence? At least Uncle Simpson would do anything to ensure father’s safety. To me, that was better than how much I missed him. I would be too selfish if I took him away. He had people who loved him here, and that was enough for me.“Okay. What do you want to do now, Elena? I would have suggested that we come here every weekend to see him, but your condition isn’t the bes

    ElenaI don’t know how long I have been standing before the mirror in the ladies’ room, but I just couldn’t stop trembling all over my body. I was with my dad for the last time, and I could never tell how things would be for me after today. I had a fleeting thought to remain in Lockwood and accompany my father till my last moments, but I knew it was impossible. The peace I needed till I delivered my child would be distorted, and I would have to deal with Ronan and the schemng Darcy for the rest of my days. I just couldn’t take that. It was too much a blow for me to bear. I remained standing in front of the mirror, the tap running for as long as I could remember. My gaze was fixed on nothing specifically, and it was shocking to note that my mind just went blank after all the panic.Wehn I got here, I was a whole mess, wndering why my life was so difficult.

    Ronan “What did you say? You saw Elena at where?” I couldn’t believe my ears. Elena was just spotted at the hospital. I searched high and low for Elena. There was nowhere I didn’t look in my endeavor to find her, but she seemed to have vanished into thin air. I waited and waited, going home every night for the last three months, just to meet Elena upon her return. I couldn’t even tell what I was waiting for. Initially, I only wanted to be there when she returned, but I later found myself going back every night, just so I could sleep at her side of the bed. Whenever I wasn’t there, I was in the study, transfixed on our wedding photograph. I couldn’t tell what happened to me, but I found myself pining for Elena. I wanted to know where she was, find out what she was doing, and be sure she was okay. I finally realized that's what she wanted. Elena wanted me to be miserable. Not only that, but I was also agitated. She hoped I’d look for her with everything within me, yet I would

    Elena“I heard Valerie is pregnant.” I informed Ronan in a jovial tone, allowing him to get the picture. He always said that Valerie made his children forget him whenever she was around. Now that she was coming back for good, Ronan’s mood was sure to plummet.As I was teasing my husband, I heard the cries of one of the triplets, and my heart skipped a beat. I was about to get out of bed when Ronan reminded me that I was in the room to take a nap. Aunt Delores said she would take care of them, so I left the kids with her and the nannies. I am really exhausted, but now that I’m on the bed, I can’t sleep. I’ve tried closing my eyes several times, but it still wouldn’t work.“Elena, you don’t want to sleep?” Ronan asked in a mischievous tone. He looked like a kid who’s favorite toy had been snatched from him. I know his worries. The kids turned three months old today, and Ronan had been living like a monk since they were born. He has been reading a lot lately, letting me know I was rea

    ValerieI finally made it back to Lockwood. That old fart wanted to keep me there for good. How dare he? “Hello, let’s meet at Palates Haven.” I was expecting this call as soon as the plane touched down. We’ve been in talks for the past four months, and I wouldn’t wish for a better time to have this talk than now.I found my way there without waiting at the airport for any car. I don’t wish to announce my presence here, anyway.“Sorry I’m late.” I apologized as soon as I got to the place. I was a few minutes late, after all. “It’s fine. I haven’t been here for long.” He responded, causing a smile to break out on my face.“David Spencer, you said you loved me. Please tell me why I should believe you.” I pushed a stack of documents toward him, and when he opened it, his eyes were wide like saucers. It’s not like I don’t return his feelings, but I needed something concrete. He had better choose his words carefully, because that is what would determine whether he lived or died today.

    Elena Knowing it was Darcy, I realized I was worked up for nothing. What else did she spoil in the dark? Why didn’t I notice who she was sooner? Darcy Taylor… Hmmmm! The least said about you, the better. I couldn’t even hug Jackson without my stomach getting in the way. My friend from so many years ago. Then again, I’m happy for him. I’m glad he made it big. “Well, to add to the good news, I’d prep Mr Jones for a surgery in a month’s time. If he comes out successfully, he should be on the road to recovery. He would be up and about in six months. One year, maximum.” Jackson’s congratulatory message didn’t even sink into my head. All I could think about were his words. “You mean my father can walk again?” I had to ask again to be sure. My body trembled from so much excitement that I couldn’t control it. “Yeah! The doctors took good care of him. His physical fitness is top notch. They just d’t know where to look to make him better. I bet they already gave up on him at a point,

    JacksonElena Jones in the flesh. She hasn’t changed a single bit. The years have really been kind to her, and she still looked as much in love with Ronan Simpson as she was a decade ago. She’s even carrying his child. If I had known she was the patient’s family member, I would have run here to sort things out long ago. How could I ever repay her kindness in this lifetime? “You two know each other?” I didn’t know if I should say yes or no to this question. Which would she prefer?“Yeah, Jackson, tell my Uncle. Do we know each other?” Elena’s reaction is too confusing. Could it be the pregnancy hormones or what? She wasn’t supposed to get angry with me. I was the one who got hurt by her words and inactions. “I should be angry with you, Elena. Not the other way around. Why are you playing the victim? You know what, how about we let this slide, for old time’s sake?” I didn’t want to push this any further. Elena is one of my benefactors I could never cease to acknowledge. No matter wh

    Elena The meal went by in a jolly mood, as everyone chatted lightly. I couldn’t keep out of it, as random questions were thrown to me now and then. I felt lightheaded throughout the meal, but tried to hold it in, so I wouldn't scare anyone. Halfway through, I couldn’t take it anymore. “Excuse me.” I stood up anruptly, headed for the washroom, but before I could take up to three steps, I was consumed by darkness. I couldn’t even resist in the slightest. “Elena,” Ronan’s crazed voice sounded in my ears. I couldn’t tell why, but he started crying and begging me not to leave him. I guess Ronan carried me to the room, because I woke up in his bed. When I tried to move, my head felt so heavy, but it was still bearable. When I tried to lift my hand to my head and massage my forehead a little, I felt a weight on my hand. Looking toward the direction, I noticed Ronan holding my hand firmly. As soon as I tried to wriggle out of his hold, he also stirred awake. It was already nightfal

    Ronan I was reliably informed that Elena was to make a journey to the old mansion today. As a result, I came to support her. This occasion was supposed to be a family dinner, yet, Elena wasn’t here-so was dad. I could tell those two were up to something again in Dad’s study room. The old Roman would have flared up, accusing Elena of telling tales to my father. However, I finally realized I was just living like the fool I was supposed to be. I walked toward the study, only to meet it half closed. “Uncle Simpson, please, let my Dad go.” What! Why would Elena want to remove the life support? She gave up on her father after so many years? “What if I say I don’t agree?” My words were unexpected, but I had no plans of allowing her to do this. I believe Uncle Jones can be saved. “Doctor Fischer is still working on inviting that specialist he spoke about. We would double our efforts and bring him in. Can you wait till he arrives? Let’s make a decision after his diagnosis, okay?” E

    Elena It’s been three months since the incident at the hotel. Darcy did so much to ruin me, but I ended up in the arms of Ronan Simpson, the only man I ever loved. I tried so much to fight my affection for him. I thought I already moved on from him, but I clearly didn’t. Now that he was hell bent on making me accept him again, Ronan did everything possible to atone for his sins. He was everywhere at the same time, and I even had no choice than to explain to Ruth that my husband wasn’t truly dead, but was rather someone who didn’t stand up for me when I needed him the most. To my utmost shock, Ruth became Ronan’s advocate. She was the one who made it possible for him to meet me on different occasions. Now, I couldn’t even tell if Ronan wanted to turn my house into a florist shop, because he sent a bouquet of flowers every morning. He was so consistent for the past three months that I woke up sometimes looking for his flowers. His devotion so far has moved my heart, but it was

  • Realizing Faults, CEO Wants To Remarry Everyday   162: A heated night… Darcy Taylor’s fetish

    Ronan Last night, I was a beast, and I knew it. However, I just couldn’t control myself around Elena. Having her squirming beneath me, with her hands running all over my body, and asking for more and more… I didn’t expect it to happen so soon. I was ready to help Elena take a cold bath, knowing I was the last person she wanted to see tonight. However, when she offered to get someone else to satisfy her, I lost it. How could she ask that of me? I know I really did a number on her, but the most important thing now is that the drug was cleared from her system, and we also managed to avoid a calamity. That was the most important of all. We both lost ourselves in the passion, going until we collapsed. I must say Elena had it worse. She was so out of it that she didn’t even notice when I carried her to the bathroom for a warm bath. She slept so soundly throughout the ordeal. At least, it gladdened my heart that Elena trusted me enough to leave herself at my mercy. As I watched

    Elena I was glad to see Ronan marching into the room like my knight in shining armor. His expression looked so fierce, yet I didn’t know who his anger was directed to. When he knocked a few teeth out of Darcy’s mouth, I finally understood that he wasn’t falling for her schemes today. I raised my head briefly and realized how he stared at Darcy as if she was already dead. Then Darcy’s men were shot in the balls. I folded my knees to my chest, as I fought the drug in my system with all the strength I could muster. Darcy ruined my family. She was the reason my Dad became a vegetable, yet, I invited her into my home. Dad never wanted her at our house when he was healthy, but when he got into a coma, I invited Darcy in to keep me company. When I moved into the Simpsons old mansion, I allowed her to stay in the house for a while, until she betrayed me at the university and moved out on her own. Little did I know that the betrayal started long ago, and I just didn’t notice. She ap
