"Are you ready?" Max asked that evening when Christina joined him outside. He had rushed back home after finishing with the work that he had came there to do.He didn't expect to stay out all day but he couldn't help it. He had urgent things that needed his attention and luckily, Christina understood his plight."Yes." She smiled at him after adjusting her dress. Funny enough, she had been waiting for this trip all day even though she pretended not to care."I'm sorry again for being late, Cupcake." He apologized for the umpteenth time that evening. "Believe me, I did everything in my power to come back as soon as I could.""But I'm not even angry at you." She spoke, not understanding why he kept on apologizing. "Besides, we came here because you had work to do so it's obvious that you'd be busy.""You're here now and that's what matters so, stop apologizing please. It's embarrassing." She muttered the last sentence to herself even though he heard her clearly."Alright, I'll stop." He
Christina ran into her room and closed the door shut behind her almost immediately. Her heart was beating, slamming hard against her ribcage and she could feel the tightness that made it's way to her throat.She knew that it wasn't there because of thirst but something else, something that she wasn't ready to fully admit to herself.What on earth is wrong with her? And why him? Why him of all people?Placing her hands on her chest, she started to take slow but deep breaths to calm her nerves that were all over the place. She had never felt like this until now so she didn't know exactly how to handle it.If only she could tell Hera and maybe ask for advice but doing that would give her away and if Hera began to get suspicious then she wouldn't be able to face her at all."I don't know what's wrong with me." She cried to herself as she discarded the shawl and made her way towards the bed.Maybe she was just in her feels and it will all go away when she sleeps it off by tomorrow morning.
"I urm..." Christina stuttered shamelessly as she tried to pull herself away from him. She took a step back, and another till she felt like she had moved a considerable distance.It felt like he was still close no matter how far she was trying to get away from him. The cold air and suddenly turned hot and was starting to burn slowly inside her.Max noticed her uneasiness but didn't say anything about it because he didn't want to make her uncomfortable.He wanted to break the silence that had enveloped them so suddenly like a thick blanket but even he, couldn't understand his own feelings at the moment so what exactly would he even say to her?He was miserable because it has been a very long time since he felt anything remotely close to what he was feeling at the moment.He somehow knew what it was but he didn't want to admit it—yet.Hell, he didn't even want to admit it at all. Christina is just a friend. She's like a sister to him because her brother in-law is his best friend and thi
"There you are!" Christina exclaimed happily from a distance. I've been looking for you everywhere." She spoke out to my hearing as she made her way towards the garden that was secluded from the main building.Her hands latching onto the warm blanket that was draped around her shoulders to protect her skin from the cold wind of the evening.Max saw her approaching him, his gaze fixed on her as he waited patiently for her to get closer. Her blonde hair was let down as the wind blew the strands in all directions.He had never seen her with her hair like this except for the last time that he accidentally walked in on her after her shower and maybe the other night they were stuck together in an hotel.It was a rare sight; one he wouldn't stop staring at as though he was trying to commit it to memory. He often wondered how a woman like her was able to get to him in this manner.It was just like what his mother and Bryce had said. What is happening to him? He wasn't even able to answer her
"I've handled everything on my end so unless it's extremely important then please, do not reach out to me until I'm back from my trip." Max instructed his secretary, his eyes casted outside the window from the edge of the balcony where he stood."Also, my number might be unavailable for a while so trouble Bryce on my behalf instead."He heard his secretary force a chuckle before responding in agreement.Max was certain that nothing would happen but if it does indeed happen then it'll get to Bryce first to find a solution at least before he's roped in should in case things spiral out of control."Okay Sir, enjoy your trip."And with that, the line went dead.With a deep sigh, he pocketed his phone and took in the open space one last time, his hands folded across his chest.He couldn't believe that Christina had played him like that. Whether she did it intentionally or unintentionally, it still didn't change the fact that she had indeed played him.He wanted to be angry so bad but then
"Hi Mom," Max greeted his mother with a hug after stepping into the house. She had rushed into his arms, almost knocking him down as she wrapped her hands tightly around his neck."Why did it take you so long to visit us?" She questioned, her head still resting on his shoulders. "Patty told me that she called you countless times to ask when you'd be stopping by but you kept ignoring her.""I missed you too, Mom." He said, changing the subject instead and she jabbed him playfully on the cheeks."And I'm sorry for not coming sooner." He apologized when she finally pulled away from the embrace. "Work was hectic and I had a lot of things to do. It was brutal.""You're here now, that's all that matters." She smiled at him, her eyes lighting up with every grin that spread across her lips."And Patty told me that you brought a guest." She asked, peeking through his broad shoulders but Max instinctively stepped out of the way so that his mother can get a closer look at Christina."She's Bryce
Bryce waited.He had no idea why he was waiting but still he did. She had gone inside for close to three hours now. He waited for her to finish up her prayers while he played with King on her couch.He couldn't understand his feelings and emotions towards that woman but he doesn't want to stop them. E
"I want you to tie me up to this bed and fuck me Bryce." She whispered, her eyes pinned on his in a firece challenge while her breath came out pants. She reached for the pillow beside her and brought out different tools, throwing it on the bed before him.Bryce stared down at the naked woman on his b
The minute Bryce was out of sight, Hera ushered the older woman into her apartment. When Mariam was settled in, she shut the door and proceeded to join her where she had sat down on the couch."You seem to be in a good mood!" Mariam spoke up the minute Hera was comfortably seated on the couch. Hera b
Hera woke up quite early the next morning. It was a Sunday and she needed to finish her chores early so that she could get ready for Mass. Picking herself up from bed, she made her way into the kitchen to make breakfast, afterwards she took her shower and dressed up nicely.She glanced at the clock a
