It feels like a dream, not real at all, but it is. Standing here, my heart is beating slowly, my breathing perfectly relaxed, and I never thought that would be possible. I look down at the large metal cuffs around my ankles fastened to the wall, my hands tied with the rope above my head. If anyone saw me now, they would think I was here unwillingly; my friends would freak out if they knew I agreed. Marcus Mancini stands before me, his leather chaps slightly open as his hand grips the leather whip and his wicked smile melts my heart, I should have ran, I know I should have. I am falling in love, and even I know Marcus Mancini is not a man you want to love.I never thought a month ago, that walking into that interview room would have the end result of me being here, not at all. He saved me in so many ways, and while I enjoy every aspect of this relationship, I know he will never truly be mine, somewhere, somehow, he will always be hers. A month before...Another rejection, I sit outsi
I look at the building. Mancini is written in large letters on the front. I'm shaking as I prepare myself to go in, yet I don't want to. I know I should, I don't even know what the company is.My mistake, I spent all night reading his contract I didn't consider searching and finding out about the company. What if he asks me what I think of the company?I can’t even answer that. I go to walk in, yet I can't, I need this job even if he has a side of him I don't feel comfortable with. I stand looking at the building, time seems to be passing me by, as I keep glancing at the clock, watching as it moves. I should have been in there twenty minutes ago, I am late.Why I am so afraid to walk in there I don’t know. I laugh slightly, I know why. I have the words of that contract burned into my head and now my mind is playing games with me, telling me that is what he wants.Maybe I should leave? I am late now, so no doubt he will be busy. Giving my head a wobble, I walk through the doors; a youn
Everything costs hundreds, if not more, I can't spend that much. I have no choice though, my hand stops on a silver dress, a long and a trumpet-type of dress, picking it up I don't look at the price.If I do, I know I will just put it back down, so I carry it across the shop, grab shoes and a bag to match, and place them all on the counter as she begins to scan them."Can you not tell me the prices please?" The counter assistant looks at me confused."Please? Honestly, if I know how much it costs, I will put it back." She simply nods."Okay, well, I am not sure what to say, but it needs to be paid for. How will you pay?" I hand her the card and watch as the dress gets paid for, I would never shop here,I rush home and get ready, with barely minutes left to sit. I look around me, realising that he is coming here, sure not inside, but outside, what will he think? It's the worst place in town.I hear the doorbell, grab my jacket and rush down, opening the door he stands there in a suit.
Waking up, I feel the bed moving. Marcus is next to me, his face serious."We should talk." Nodding, I sit up, and he hands me a plate with food."Last night was a mistake. You can't work for me. I can't risk this happening again." There it is, I have officially lost my job before I even start."It is fine, I understand. I will get ready and leave." My body turns to move and get off the bed, his hand grabbing mine and stopping me."Don't, Anaya. You don't understand. I don't usually do what I did last night. You somehow made me forget everything. Hell, I had sex in this bed, I never have sex in my own bed." Turning, I look at him confused."Then where the hell do you have sex?" He shakes his head back at me and rubs his forehead in frustration."Look, let's not get into that either right now. You can work for me, but I will have a call around and see if I can get you a permanent position elsewhere. I can't risk this happening again, not with a worker." Well, I guess for now I am safe
"Anaya." My body stiffens, my hands wiping away the tears as I turn to face Marcus. He shouldn't be here, not at all."What the hell are you doing? You honestly turned down every job I secured for you? Why?" He looks angry, but he shouldn't be."Because I don't want anything from you Marcus, you shouldn't even be here and like it matters now anyway, I am moving back to Gosnold today, that was the life I was meant to live." I turn messing with my bags, any excuse not to look at him."Anaya, just accept one of the jobs, stop being so stubborn, you don't have to go back to a tiny town and work on a checkout for the rest of your life." I laugh at his words; he has no idea."Actually, I am going to be a waiter, not that it has anything to do with you, Marcus. You made it clear that night was a mistake, now can you leave, please, I am waiting for someone to pick me up." My words get louder until I am shouting. What is it with men? He can't have me, but doesn't want me to leave the city? Wel
I need to know about him."Marcus, what about you? You know why I am here, about my family and past, what about you? And why are you so afraid of me?" Okay, I missed out a lot, he smiles softly his hand grabbing mine."I was in the Navy, and I had a wife, we ended badly, my dad left when I was young, and my mum raised me. I inherited money from my father, and my brother hates me."I don't feel he is telling me everything, I wait, and he senses I am, and seems to give in and begin to talk more."I have a son, things were complicated with that. You remind me..No, how I feel reminds me of his mum. That ended badly multiple times, I gave up being safe for her. I ruined her life and my own, you make me want to forget, like before. That is why I am scared because that will end badly."I feel I need to know more, about his son's mum. I sense he loves her, but won't admit it. I read that contract, I know this isn't a relationship, even if my mind tries to make me think it is. We're not a coup
Next, begin to go through things I never tried what I am willing to try and what I won't"Safe word? You need one" He looks at me and waits."Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." I sit and smile, and he shakes his head, clearly not amused by my attitude right now."Seriously, take this seriously." He looks at me clearly wanting a safe word, but this is just too much fun."Super-cali-fragilistic-expiali-docious, maybe I should say it twice?" I say it in a taunting way, slowly. He moves, his hands grabbing me and throwing me over the table, his hand sliding up the inside of my thighs, slowly lifting my skirt to expose my arse."Okay, smartass, now try to say it while I spank this pretty arse of yours, if you manage to say it before five, then you can use it. Oh, and you have to count each spank as well."My mind is telling me I am crazy, but surely I can do it. I scream and jump as the sting of his hand hits."Count," His voice is low, and my mind trying to find the number to say."One.
I stand looking at myself in the mirror, glistening silver grown flows over my body, the slit up the side exposes my leg. With Marcus, finding a dress was quick. He picked which I am grateful for because I am not comfortable with the price. I knew the moment we walked in the shop, one or two of each dress at the most, champaign in glasses. I knew the dresses would cost too much, and I felt uneasy choosing knowing he was paying.So, when he walked in picked up the dress and said this is perfect, I looked and agreed, because well I guess I do. The dress is perfect what more can I say? Nothing really can I when that is the truth. The truth though, had I gone alone I wouldn't have even looked at that shop."Thinking hard there aren't you." My body jumps at the sound of his voice as he slowly stalks towards me, his eyes taking in the sight of my body in the gown."Now, I don't like to gloat, but damn I made one hell of a good choice with this." He rubs his hand against my exposed legs, sto
"You two look amazing together." I nod smiling at Marcus."Thanks, I'm still waiting to wake up, the last five years, just flew by." They did, and we moved into his spare house and settled down there. In 9 months, she was pregnant, and a few months later I proposed."So, we are all still waiting." I nod and laugh."Soon, let her finish the dance with Ethan, then Star will pop the balloon and you will all know, including me." I look at the balloons."There is no indication, trust me I tried looking, but you can't see what colour the confetti is, inside them." I nod and laugh."It will be a boy." I have a girl, so I can hope for a boy. He pats my shoulder and walks off."Happy wedding day Uncle Demitri." I turn and smile at Katy."Thank you, Katy, where is Jacob?" I can't remember seeing him."He is sorting out Jackson." I laugh, why would he be sorting out Jackson?"Oh, baby Jackson, yeah, my bad, that is taking some getting used to." I laugh shaking my head."Barely a baby Demitri, he
My foot taps as my eyes stay fixed on my hands, the sweat building in my palms. The faint muffled sound of talking comes from all around me as I try to stay calm. The music begins, my heart racing faster than before, I feel like running and fast. I feel the slight tap on my shoulder, turning I smile seeing Anaya walking towards me. Star by her side, holding up a wooden heart.Daddy, Mummy is coming! The words make me smile, she walks towards me, stopping Anaya smiles as Star hugs me before sitting down next to Anaya. I look at Jackson and Marcus standing next to me, the music continuing as Luna and Alex walk down together. Reaching me they both hug me, my eyes watching as they sit down. I try to calm my breathing my eyes watching the door, seeing the white moving slightly.I smile feeling the tear fill my eyes as she stops at the end of the aisle. Her brother by her side as she begins walking towards me, my smile growing as the tear falls down my cheek, Analise reaches me, her brot
"We're here Kitty." I open my eyes, and Marcus is smiling at me."Can I just go back to sleep, Master?" I laugh looking around us."No, come on, get your arse in there. Everything is sorted, we just need to unpack personal stuff. Then have food, and plan." Nodding I open the door."Plan what Master?" I was hoping for a lazy day today, I guess not."You will see, I took the bags in, the kids are playing." Nodding I get out and start walking towards the house, the fields seem to go on for miles."Right come on." Nodding I follow Marcus around the house."Like the last one, kitchen, however totally separate from the dining room, the Dining room is here, kids game room is here, utility room, living room, second living room, office, storage." I nod following him around."Right upstairs Kitty." I nod following him up."Luna's room, MJ's, Alex's, bathroom one, storage. Bathroom two, our room with bathroom, our playroom, and second playroom, spare bedroom for the next baby we have." I stop an
Standing I take my top off, the door opening as Marcus walks in.“Behave, I mean that.” I look at him laughing as he pushes me back.“Fuck behaving kitty, I have unfinished business, and I can’t get the way you looked in that corset out of my head.” I moan as his mouth presses against my neck.“The kids Master, we can wait, we will land in like an hour.” I feel his head shake as he continues kissing my neck.“Kids are sorted, happily occupied with someone, now shut up and let me fuck you.” I moan as he continues kissing down my body his hands removing my clothes. His head stops between my legs as his tongue begins to tease.“I thought you said you were going to fuck me, Master.” This isn’t fucking me. I scream as his fingers push inside me.“Shh Kitty, this place certainly isn’t soundproof and hearing you scream just makes me want to do more.” I moan nodding, his tongue continuing to tease as his fingers play, pushing me to orgasm, he stands up, my hands grabbing his clothes and remov
Walking downstairs after getting the kids in bed, Katy and Issy have left along with Georgina."Right, just adults now." Jackson looks at us as we sit down, I guess tonight me, and Marcus don't get alone either."Now they have gone. Everything is booked for the day of moving, I will be telling Liam he has a year to sort a place out. Katy is only 15, but she will want her space once the baby comes. I am hoping we can keep her at home for a year until she is 16, but if not then they will need to find a house quicker.""She is a child; she has no choice but to stay at home until you let her leave Jackson." Marcus looks at him like he is crazy."And you're right, but having a new baby is hard as an adult, never mind as a child with the thoughts of if their parents are watching their every move, plus, I want Jacob to feel at home, so it will be his house as much as Katy's" I stare at Jackson."No, I don't want anything from you." Jacob looks at Jackson shocked."No arguing, she made you pa
"Your pregnant?" Georgina appears behind us after a few minutes, Katy crying and nodding. Georgina moves and cuddles her."You will be fine, your mum and dad will be fine, just shocked that is all." Demitri escapes into the other room, sitting an hour passes as me and Georgina talk to Katy, Alena and Jackson coming back with Marcus."Okay, I am calm. I am angry as hell Katy, but I still love you. You're my baby girl like Issy." He hugs her and I see her relaxing as she cries, Marcus sitting next to me, his mouth at my ear."I calmed him down and explained she could drop any time so he should be gentler." I nod, she has months yet, I hope."Right, so I am not sure what your mum will say, but I think the way forward is to get you checked out and make sure you are okay. Then go from there, no more ignoring this, and that includes telling Jacob." Marcus smiles like something has happened."No Dad, he will hate me." Katy looks at him as the door opens, and Jacob walks in."You may need to
"Okay, so I guess I will start with part one. Katy lied to Jacob about her age, they knew each other yeah, but he wasn't sure of her age. She told him she was 16, and as you said, Katy looks a lot older, so he didn't question it." He nods listening."So, they did sleep together. She then realised her mistake when it came to her birthday. She realised he would see her cards saying 15 and see she lied, so she told him a few days before her birthday that is when he swore never to touch her again until she was 16." He looks at me confused."If Jackson and Alena paid attention, they would see her card from him has 17 on, he bought it before she told him.""Right, so that is what this is all over? She lied, okay Jacob isn't to blame I can see that, Jackson and Alena will as well, so we tell them and clear it up." I shake my head."Marcus that is part of the story, just listen you swore not to tell them." He nods, this is the part where he flips."So, I assumed like you this was all over th
Sitting I think about his words."Someone needs to talk to her Master." This can't keep happening."We have all tried, if you want to there is nothing to lose, but honestly, I can't see anything calming her, except one thing which is bad to think of Kitty, but that is the one thing that will scare her into realising she can't do this and not get hurt.""I will try, I know her a bit, not enough like you lot so maybe she will tell me? Maybe she won't but it is worth a try Master. You're all clean, go get some sleep." He needs to."I can't, Jackson is coming, and to be honest Kitty even if he wasn’t, I can't sleep. Not until I know Katy is okay, she was a mess after the fight." I nod.Making us a drink we sit down, about an hour passing as we talk about last night, Marcus telling me I was right for making him go.The door opens as Jackson walks in, Katy following. Jackson looks at Marcus shocked, I am guessing he didn't see him, he turns back to Katy."Jackson don't." I look at him, shou
Standing I wash the plates, a few minutes passing by in silence."Really Kitty?" I turn and face Marcus, what did I do? Or what have I done that he found out?"What Master?" I place the last plate on the rack and begin drying my hands."You actually were just going to do that? Wash up and go to bed and quit?""You said you were worn out Master, I am trying to behave." I am for a change."Come on Kitty, really? You didn't even question it, or mention what you had planned, nothing? Just okay." I nod, I don't want to push him if he doesn't feel like doing certain things."I am sure I did that before Kitty, you laughed at me and said like hell are we going to bed. Come back to me please Kitty." I move towards him, his head shaking."You know what I meant, if I was worn out and you laughed and said like hell are we going to bed, I would have made sure you know I meant it. I miss the crazy woman I used to have before all this, the one who would have jumped across the table and teased me for
