-Jacey-“Spend lots of time pissing him off,” I told Caleb as I hugged him before he went to work.The guard waiting in our doorway rolled his eyes. “Come on, let’s be on time.” He tapped his watch.“I could start by coming in late,” Caleb teased.The guard did not take kindly to that and dragged Ca
***Caleb returned several hours later at about 7:00 PM looking haggard. I quickly set my pizza rolls aside and went over to him.“Today I think I coordinated a mass kidnapping,” he said to me when I went to hug him.I hugged him anyway. “That’s not your fault. That’s Masterson’s fault. He’s just us
-Caleb-I stroked Jacey’s hair gently in the morning hours before I had to go work for the devil incarnate.She stirred then snuggled into me more and tried to go back to sleep.“Baby,” I murmured, my hand moving down her back. “If we want to be together before I go to work, we have to start now.”J
Masterson came out of his office to torment me. “I think there’s a village in Brazil that needs clearing before we can pillage their resources,” he chuckled to me.Doubtless he’d been listening to our conversation last night. I hadn’t meant to give him ideas. “Can we not? I mean, doesn’t your legiti
It boggled my mind how Lacy just rolled with everything. Like this was a normal workplace, and Masterson hadn’t tried to rape my girlfriend. “Yeah, I’m sure she was,” I responded, bemused.“Anyway, I should get back to reception. I’ll catch you later!” Lacy smiled and wandered off.I stared after he
-Jacey-It was when the smoke detector went off that I realized something was wrong.I sat up in bed and blinked at the darkness. Caleb wasn’t home yet, and I’d decided to take a little nap before he arrived just in case he was in the mood for rigorous after dinner activities.Confused, I went to th
I scrambled through the alley and launched myself into the sedan, my head bumping someone’s thigh. Given that thigh was wearing expensive pants, I began to worry that I was being tricked and had just gone through this whole ordeal only to find Masterson was playing another one of his sick games.How
I screamed. “NO!!!”The FBI agent turned, and Jake took the opportunity to grab for the gun. A shot went off and Jake groaned.“Fucking hell,” the FBI agent said. He turned and pointed the gun in my direction while Jake curled on the ground, holding his stomach.I turned and ran.Another shot went o
“So, I think you’ve been doing some snooping,” Ike said, leaning in the doorway.My eyes snapped upward, and I was sure I wasn’t hiding the hatred in them very well. “What the hell is all this?”“Your inheritance. You know, this makes it easier. Your grandfather and I were trying to figure out how t
I dropped the headphones and was about to go striding into the office to break up their nefarious little clique when I looked at Dawn’s screen. She’d left it unlocked.There was a folder open I’d never seen on the server before.I glanced over the monitor to make sure Dawn wasn’t on her way back the
-Will-I sat behind my grandfather’s desk, bored again. After private schools, Yale, and Harvard Business School, I was bored out of my mind. I’d followed my expected trajectory. I’d done everything expected of me.Only once did I ever step a toe out of line. Well, almost. I suggested, at one of my
-Jacey-“Mom? Where did Uncle Billy put the Fruity Pebbles?” McKenzie asked.She’d been home from her first year of college a week and had already settled right in like she owned the place. Billy had taken to hiding the Fruity Pebbles they both liked, one, because he thought it was hilarious, and tw
Shower. SHOWER!!! I stopped her jerking me off and helped her into the tub then followed her in and closed the floral curtain.Jacey went immediately for the soap, lathering up her hands and then starting to scrub me.“You’re trying to kill me, aren’t you,” I groaned when she washed my rigid cock.“
I should have been overjoyed. On some level, I was ecstatic. But anger bubbled up in me as well, and I gripped her upper arms and pushed her just far enough away that I could look her in the eyes. “Jacey, you’ve been icing me out for almost a month.”Her eyes welled with tears, but she quickly dashe
-Caleb-A month later, Masterson was in prison, and Jacey and I were back on the farm. She had spoken to me less and less as the weeks passed and was now icing me out altogether. I didn’t blame her. I’d given her false hope.But I’d been so sure Masterson was going to bungle it with Will. A bad nann
“Good luck with that. Look, I really am on your side. This plea bargain is a good thing. Twenty-five years isn’t a short prison sentence, and maybe in that amount of time, he’ll be able to reflect on his actions. Hell, I don’t know, maybe he’ll find Jesus. What I do know is Masterson can provide for
“I hear what you’re saying,” Officer Alexander replied slowly. “And Lord knows I agree with you, but there’s nothing we can do, Jacey. Nothing. Do you understand? I want you to tell me you understand before we go back out there. You can’t make a scene.”My hands balled into fists. “If they don’t wan
