Emily's point of view My eyes stayed glued to Ethan as he approached us, "Excuse me" he said to Jason before whisking me away, I turned back to Jason who stood stunned for a minute before retreating to his seat. "Are you trying to taunt me? " Ethan asked placing his hands on my waist and holding my hands."Taunt you?" I wondered what he was talking about."Staring at me while you let another man touch you" Ethan's eyes darkened as we moved to the beat, the song "Amazed by Lonestar" playing in the background'Was he angry because I moved on from his son so quickly" I thought staring into his eyes, maybe it was the song, but I started to feel in love.I felt safe and comfortable in his arms. Our movement was in perfect rhythm as he guided me to the song, his touch felt like home, like we were only two people in the room. " I am sorry" I whispered, trying to release myself from the trance dancing with Ethan put me in. "I missed you" he uttered and my heart began to race, I missed yo
"O! Hi' I said faking a smile, "What are you still doing at the office" I pretended I didn't see what he was doing. He smiled at me not saying a word or pulling up his trousers, and I tried not to look at him. "I forgot my bag," I said, holding out my bag to show him, but he didn't say a word, he just stared at me with his lust-filled eyes. "I should better get going" I stuttered, trying to move forward but his body blocked the door. "Why do you want to leave so soon" he finally spoke moving closer to me. "I...I am just here for" I tried to speak but my heart raced, he looked creepy."I am really glad you are here" he smiled, extending his hands and moving closer to me. I took steps back as he tried to close the gap between us. "The videos don't do it for me" he complained. "I crave the real thing" his voice sounding high-pitched. As he spoke my heart raced with fear creeping into my mind."Your soft body, those beautiful breasts" He said staring at my breasts. "I want to touch
Ethan stopped mid-air turning to me, his eyes softened immediately he caught mine."I am so sorry," he said walking towards me and lifting me like I weighed nothing, as I got into his arms I began to cry, he held me so tightly, the warmth of his embrace made me feel safe. "I am sorry" He repeated carrying me out of the office and moving straight to the elevator. "I am sorry you had to go through that" His voice laced with regret. I wrapped myself in his arms crying my eyes out, and without dropping me, he took me to the basement where his car was waiting.I felt too exhausted to offer to walk myself, letting him carry me all the way.As we got into the car, Ethan laid me down on the soft leather seat as I sunk into it, I tried so hard to stop crying but I couldn't, the fear of what could have happened coupled with the trauma of what happened felt like a wave. Ethan got into the car, picking my head up, and placing it gently on his lap. "Are we going to the hospital sir" I heard hi
"What happened?" I asked, my eyes widening as I stared at his bloody shirt, without thinking twice I lifted his hands, staring at the spiky punch ring, "What is this".Ethan quickly pulled his hands from my grip, pulling out the ring."I was exercising, and my instructor mistakenly got injured" he explained sounding firm and composed, I narrowed my eyes at him as it didn't make sense to me, who exercises with a spiky punch ring?I looked at his demeanor and he didn't flinch, I guess maybe it was true, I mean what else could it be?"Okay," I believed him. "Are you okay? what are you doing down here?" Ethan wondered. "I needed some air" I explained, still feeling worried about his blood-stained shirt. "This place is a little clustered right, why don't I get changed and we can go to the beach house instead" he suggested. I needed to change too I realized staring at the blanket I was wrapping like a veil. "Well, maybe I could just go home instead," I thought, there was no point follow
Is he okay?" I asked, and a warm smile appeared on Ethan's face. "You are such a sweet soul Emily" "Why don't you come down let's eat instead," He said dismissing my question.I did as I was told going down to the dining where Ethan had set the table for the two of us, like his son he was such a good cook. After eating the delicious pancakes Ethan made, we sat at the table talking and gisting.I had no idea how much Ethan and I had in common, from being an only child to the humble background. He told me about his life before he made his first Million and before he met Jake's mother. "You used to rap" I laughed as he told me a story of when they called him "The Cheetah of Brooklyn". "Yes" he bragged, winking his eyes, I laughed at the idea and could only imagine how his deep voice sounded in a rap song. "I can't imagine" I chuckled, I really couldn't."Were you good" I wondered still laughing at the idea. "The best, how do you think I scored the most beautiful woman in the whole
I felt like a fool begging for love from someone who just told me he had only ever loved one person minutes ago."No, I don't want anything from you," I said feeling a surge of anger, as I struggled to get to my feet. "What is going on Emily," Ethan asked, a confused expression on his face. "Nothing," I said, walking away carefully while he watched, he couldn't even follow me or try to lie to me. I picked up my phone from the kitchen counter not caring that I was dripping water everywhere in his house, before running upstairs to my room. As I got to my room I locked the door changing into dry clothes before picking up my phone, to scroll through the blogs again.As I looked through my phone, I saw several missed calls from an unknown number, thinking it was my mum who had promised to call me, I called the number back immediately. "Hello," I said as soon as the caller picked up, a minute of silence followed before the caller finally spoke. "Hello babe, I have missed you," Jake's
"What" I asked as my heart skipped a beat, "What did you just say" Tears began to stream down my eyes."The doctors aren't sure she would make it to the next day" Ethan's voice softened. I felt a sharp pain in my chest as tears began to stream down my eyes, I couldn't imagine life without my mother, it couldn't be."I need to get to Ashville" I realized as my stomach twisted, how could I be here when my mother was dying? "I know, I have called the pilot, he will be here soon," Ethan said, moving towards me as he sat beside me, I laid my head on his shoulder, clutching onto my burning heart as I cried."I can't lose her" I shook my head, I would be nothing without her.After 15 minutes the pilot came, and the helicopter took us to his jet, with Ethan holding my hands every step of the way we flew to Ashville. As soon as we got to Ashville a limo was ready to take us to the hospitalEthan held tightly onto my hands until we got to the hospital, as we got to the hospital he released m
"She is sleeping right?" I asked turning to Jake who didn't say a word, tears streaming down his eyes."Mama I know you are sleeping but can you please wake up" I said desperately picking up her hand and trying to make it stand on its own. Jake silently got up from his seat, going out to call the doctors.After minutes of talking to my mother, the doctors came in."She is sleeping' I whispered to the doctors as they walked in. I watched them run in checking her heart monitor and then her pulse. "You are making too much noise" I yelled at one of the doctors. "Why wouldn't you let her sleep Doctor" I berated them, the tears in my eyes drying up as I told myself that my mother was sleeping."Shh!" I made a hush sound putting my hands on my lips and asking everyone to be quiet. "If you talk too loud, you will wake her," I said in my moment of Insanity, I watched the nurse cover her face."Let her breathe" I snapped at the nurse wondering why she tried to suffocate my mother, I struggl
