Cairo's POV.

I thought I would finish my presentation early but I couldn't and I needed to see Isabella. I promised to take her out for fine dining and she texted me that she was on her way to the location.

I was already dressed and I stood in front of my locked door as I hurried downstairs to see the private car I hired waiting for me. I quickly hoped inside the car, I couldn't afford to be late again and disappoint Isabella like before.

I was ready to show her how much I cared and loved her. If no one was going to stand by her, I was going to do so and I would make sure she forgot her pain through me.

The ride to the location seemed very long and I was impatient because I needed to find out the good news Isabella had for me, that Levi and Mia had been exposed and her relationship with Ryan was back once again.

I looked outside the window as I felt the cold breeze blow against my skin and I closed my eyes not knowing I drifted off to sleep.

“Hello ma'am we are here” I heard a voice sa

    Mia's POV.The doorbell rang once again as fear gripped my heart. I wondered who could be there at the door.“Mia” I heard a familiar voice call out and it belonged to Levi. I was taken back and beyond stunned, why was he at my door without informing me?“Ryan you need to hide” I said as Ryan frowned at me.“Why do I need to hide Mia? I'm not a little child,” he replied with a cold tone and I let out a loud sigh then I cupped his cheeks in my hands.“I know you aren't a little child but Levi is at the door and I can't risk him seeing us together, at least not now. You know your wedding just got called off” I explained, with the hopes that Ryan was going to understand.“Yeah you are right about that. I didn't even think that far” he replied and I chuckled.“So now, do you agree that I'm the wise one here?” I teased and he rolled his eyes at him.“You wish”, he answered back and I hugged him tightly then I kissed his forehead.“Where should I hide?” he questioned.“Just go upstairs and h

    Cairo's POV.“Why did you text me to meet you here and in this room?” I voiced out as my eyes darted around. I felt a little bit uncomfortable.Ryan chuckled as he stepped closer to me. His hand cupped my face and he trailed his fingers on my face as sensations coursed through my body and I shivered.Goosebumps appeared on my skin and I watched him slip his finger into my mouth then I sucked on it.“Damn it Cairo. You are so good at this” Ryan said in a low and sultry voice.He pulled out his finger then he stretched forth his hand to me and I looked at him.“You haven't answered my question sir. Why did you call me here? I thought you wanted to assign some office work to me” I said and he chuckled out lightly then he snapped his finger at me.*Why are you pretending to be clueless Cairo?” he asked and I gulped hard.“I'm sorry sir but I don't understand what you are saying” I replied, squeezing my hands together as I began to break my knuckles in nervousness.“Stop the act of being fo

    Isabella's POV.I stretched my body and yawned in my sleep. I wanted to wake up but I had fear instilled inside of me. How was I meant to face the world again?At least when I closed my eyes and drowned into another world. I tend to forget about the pains I had been through. Mia and Levi's betrayal, I wasn't going to think much about them because they have always shown me that they hated me but Cairo shocked me the most.She had always been the only person I carried along with me but she forgot about our long year friendship and threw it behind because of money being offered to her by the person who hates me the most. What baffled me more was the fact that, even if Cairo would have asked me for money, I wouldn't have refused her.But just when I could trust her once again. She went ahead and betrayed me for the second time. At this point in my life, everything sucked and I was fed up with the pain I was going through.I opened my eyes as I looked around the house but I didn't notice an

    Isabella's POV.I couldn't stop my heart from beating in palpitations as I stood in front of the grand hotel. It was the kind of place where people who were dressed in expensive suits were situated as they would drink their champagne and discuss business deals worth millions. I knew I had to get the job so I wouldn't have time to give into Ryan's unrealistic demands that weren't meant for me. I walked in and my heels clicked against the floor as I tried to act as though I was confident but deep inside of me, I was already breaking into tiny pieces.After what took like a while. I reached the reception room and I cleared my throat.“Hi. My name is Isabella and I am here for the waitress position, is it still available?” I said to the receptionist whose face was brightened up with a smile.“Just give me a moment please. Let me check, she replied then she looked down to check something on her iPad as she walked away.I wondered where she was going. Especially when I just asked her a ques

    Ryan's POV…My eyes caught hold of Isabella's naked body. And I swear, that I was losing every inch of control I had left inside of me.She looked ravishing. It felt as though her body had been carved out especially for me and I smirked at my thoughts. She was really irresistible, just like a temptress.“I hope you won't regret your actions?" I asked then I stood up and walked towards her but I still maintained a little bit of distance.“I already regret everything so what is left for me to regret?”“I mean, since you feel regret. Probably you can still go on to search for some more jobs?” “Then what happens when I get the job? You appear in the hotel once again and then you're going to let your investor touch my body inappropriately and after that you're going to tell the manager to fire me right? Prove me wrong if you can, you have the chance to do it” she aired out and I nodded my head.“I'm not joking with you Isabella. I have been waiting for so long for you to come to me, and no

    Isabella's POV.I opened my mouth to accommodate Ryan's kisses as his hands roamed over my naked skin like he owned it. Shivers raced through my spine. My hands were wrapped around his neck as my fingers trailed down his back and he cupped my ass with his hands. His lips left my mouth and I felt his mouth on my neck then I tilted my head sideways.His tongue met with my neck as he trailed down slowly to my collarbone. Butterflies filled my stomach and I let out a low moan.His hands wrapped around my waist and he lifted me up, placing me on the slab of the swimming pool. His fingers found the buckle behind my bra as he unbuckled it, exposing my breast before him.He lowered himself down and he spread my legs wide open. I felt his hot breath on my waistline and I clenched my fists tightly, allowing myself to sink into the pleasure.Ryan asked me to be his sex slave so he was meant to treat me like a submissive slut but he wasn't doing any of that.

My pussy walls opened itself for him and his strokes were slow, deliberately igniting pleasure inside of me as my breath raised with anticipation.“Faster Ryan. Please go faster” I begged as my pulse raced in my chest. He leaned closer and he brushed his wet and soft lips against my ear.“Not now Isabella. It's not yet time for me to go faster” he whispered.“I have been fucking starving from having good sex with you. These slow moves of mine are deliberate, I want you to know that next time, it won't be slow anymore. Next time I'm going to stretch your pussy and ruin you completely so that you beg for mercy” he said with a deep and sultry voice.He grabbed my wrists and pinned it down as he kept fucking me.

The loud music in the club filled my ears but it still didn't give me any relief to the pain I felt.My hands grabbed the glass of whiskey tightly as the harsh taste of alcohol burned my throat and I gulped it down in one go. I wanted the alcohol to make me forget about my pain, that was why I ordered for an alcohol that was extremely strong, something I wouldn't be able to resist.I felt anger burning through my chest and I was disappointed but no amount of alcohol I had to drink would ever drive away the truth that Ryan asked me to be his sex slave.His words lingered in the back of my head and no matter how much I tried to shut it off. It still resonated in my ears, getting me more angry. Never in my life would I have expected those words to escape Ryan's lips either but what could I do when I was under his mercy?I knew for a fact that this time around he had crossed his limits and there was n

She removed her body from mine as she walked further into the living room and I couldn't help but notice how she was drawing me into her temptation.

    Ryan's POV.I stood outside Mia's door. I had been standing in one position for so long and I kept on hesitating if I should knock on the door or not. In that moment, my head had so many thoughts and ideas lingered inside of it and I was confused on which one I had to listen to.Earlier on I didn't think much about it but now, I couldn't help but wonder if I made a mistake by coming here due to the way Mia stormed out of my house angrily. Probably I should just turn around and leave? What if she didn't want to see me? and what if she was still angry at me? How do I cope with all of that? Her anger was no joke after all.I wanted to turn back but something deep inside of me stirred up and I knew I couldn't just resist the urge to be near her when I have been thinking about her all day.

Let's relive new memories and grow babies together”“I didn't come back home with the intention to see anyone, more than ever argue with anyone. I came here because I need to sleep in my own bed and have some goodnight rest, I didn't think about getting ambushed”“Mia can you just stop saying things like that? I could never think of getting you ambushed so just fucking clear those thoughts out of your head. I just wanted to see you and apologize to you, to tell how sorry I am” “You already said sorry Levi. Don't you get tired of it? You said sorry in every message you sent to me so what else is there to say?”“That I should have been the stronger person and in that way. I would have been able to pr

I'm sad that you don't care about me” she whispered as her fingers lightly traced the edge of my shirt sleeve.Her words hit me so hard and I wondered why she said all of that. I opened my mouth to say something to her but she cut me off because I could speak.“I lost my unborn baby Ryan and I'm sure you know nothing about it” she said with a shaky voice as tears slipped down her cheek.“Oh my God Mia. That's such bad news and how am I supposed to know when you didn't tell me? And who else would have told me if not you?” I said as I leaned my body against my car for support.Mia stared at me intensely and I noticed as her hands curled into a fist as if she was trying to hold back the flood of emotions inside of her that threatened to spill out.“I didn't want to tell you. I didn't want to bother you or even keep my burdens on you because I thought you truly never cared about me” she said and I frowned at her.I

    Ryan's POV.I walked out of the house and my mind was still tangled in the scenario that unfolded last night. The payment and everything, I could still feel the shock that swooshed through me when she handed over thirty thousand dollars to me just like that. How was she able to come up with such a hefty amount of money when her back account was frozen? I also couldn't bring myself to accept that probably her new place of work might have given her the money but it was very impossible, they couldn't do such a thing.I knew there wasn't any way she could afford to pay the rent on her own so it means someone must have given the money to her but who could do such a thing? I shook my head as I tried to push away the thoughts of Isabella. I wasn't meant to be thinking about who she got the money from, all I wanted was to make her life so miserable for the betrayal she caused me.Other affairs of her life were none of my business and I have been trying to tell myself that last night and thi

I picked up her body and placed it in my arms as I tapped her cheeks trying to revive her.“Grandma. Please wake up, you know you can't fucking do this to me. I need you more than ever” I begged and she opened her eyes slowly then she shut them again.“I told you I wasn't immortal right?” she said in a voice that was audible enough but I had to strain my ears just to hear her.She tried to speak but then she began to breathe heavily as she struggled with herself. I didn't know what to do, if I should take her to the hospital or just wait for the family doctor’s arrival. The doctor said he was close by so I expected that he was going to reach here soon enough. But if I decide to take her to the hospital, we might arrive late because the hospital is far from the house and what if she doesn't make it?I shook my head as I removed such thoughts out of it.

And a part of me just wanted to let go of everything but I couldn't. At least not yet. When I was still hiding the truth from him.“Very good Declan. You have to stay with me for a long time, because I think I will need someone to forcibly feed me my medicines for a while”“Then it's a deal between us” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The nurses checked on me before leaving and the doctor said I would be discharged the next day because I was still placed under observation and there were a lot of samples and medical tests they were to carry on me.Visiting hours had ended but Declan sat beside me as though he belonged here. Like there was nowhere else he would rather be and maybe for the first time in a long time. I would let myself believe that someone would want to stay just for me.“Are you cold?” he asked as he noticed the way I curled my f
