A new dawn

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-07 19:24:08
Morning light crept into the room, soft and warm. Emma slowly opened her eyes, feeling the weight of Harrison’s arm around her. He was still sleeping, his breathing slow and steady. She smiled, her heart full of warmth. She had never felt this peaceful before. His presence beside her made everything feel right.

But she didn’t want to wake him. He needed his rest. Carefully, she slid out of the bed, being as quiet as possible. The cold air of the room made her shiver slightly, but the memory of last night kept her warm. She tiptoed out of the room and into the sitting room, not wanting to disturb him further.

Once she reached the sitting room, Emma let out a sigh of relief. It felt like her own space, a place where she could just think and breathe. She reached for the remote and switched on the TV, hoping for some distraction. The soft buzz of the screen came to life, but she didn’t expect what came next.

The news anchor’s voice echoed through the room. “Breaking news: Mr. Blackwood

    Harrison slowly opened his eyes, feeling the soft warmth of the bed around him. But as he turned to his side, he noticed something was missing. Emma wasn’t there. His heart skipped a beat. Where could she be? He rubbed his eyes and sat up, glancing around the room. She wasn’t on the other side of the bed, and the house felt unusually quiet. His mind raced as he pushed the covers off and got out of bed. Maybe she was in the sitting room or downstairs. He quickly walked out of the room, his steps light, as he looked for her. As he made his way down the hallway, he could hear voices coming from the sitting room. It sounded like Emma, Rachel, and Ethan. Harrison’s heart lifted a little at the sound of their voices. He smiled to himself, glad they were all together. It meant everything was okay. When he reached the sitting room, he stopped in the doorway. There, sitting together on the couch, were Emma, Rachel, Ethan, and the maid who had been helping with Ethan. They were all talking an

  • Taken By My boss   Crossing the line

    It was a normal Tuesday afternoon. The sun was shining through the blinds, making lines on the dusty floor of the big house. I was doing my chores, focused on cleaning, when the doorbell rang. I sighed and wiped my forehead. Who could it be at this time? It was only three o'clock, and Mr. Hathaway didn’t have any meetings.I walked down the hallway in my cleaning shoes, feeling nervous. I looked through the peephole and saw my boss, Mr. Hathaway. His gaze made me feel a thrill. There had been some tension between us for months, but we had never talked about it.I took a breath and opened the door. "Mr. Hathaway," I said, trying to sound calm.He looked at me, his eyes hungry, making me aware of my maid uniform. "Emma," he replied, his voice deep. "I didn’t expect to see you here."I stepped aside for him to enter. "Mr. Hathaway," I whispered. "Do you need something?"He walked in, his eyes on me. "Emma," he said, his voice lower, "I’m here to check your work."I felt my cheeks heat up

    You don’t have to tell me," he said softly, his lips close to mine. "But I want to find out myself."Before I could think of pushing him away, Alex kissed me, his tongue entering my mouth easily, making me weak. He held my hair, pulling me closer, as if he wanted more. I tried to push him away, but my body didn’t listen, and my arms wrapped around his neck.Suddenly, the door opened, and we both stopped. Alex's girlfriend, Victoria, stood there, shocked. She looked at us, her eyes moving from us to our lips. For a moment, everything was silent, except for our hearts beating loudly. Then she screamed, breaking the silence.Alex jumped back, his hand falling from my neck. "Victoria," he said, sounding tense. But she was already moving towards us, angry."What is this, Alex?" she yelled, her voice loud in the room. She looked at me with narrowed eyes. "You little slut! I knew you wanted him!"Alex raised his hands in a calming way, his eyes moving between us. "Victoria, wait, it’s not wh

    She held my face tightly, her nails digging into my skin. "You're lying," she said angrily. "You've wanted him since you got here."Feeling a rush of energy, I pushed Victoria away with surprising force. She fell back, shocked, and before she could react, I spoke softly, "No, you're wrong. Please believe me."But Victoria was too angry to listen. She fell to the floor, acting like a limp doll. The sound of her hitting the carpet made me flinch. "Help!" she screamed. "Alex, help me!"I was shocked and my hands were shaking. This was a new low for her. I knew I had to leave before things got worse. Before Alex came back and sided with her. Before she made it seem like I did something wrong.I got to my feet, my cheeks stinging from her slaps. "Victoria, please," I said, trying to stay calm. "Just calm down."But she didn’t calm down. Instead, she started crying loudly, holding her face. "Oh, Alex," she cried, "she tried to seduce you!"I felt panic as I realized what she was doing. She

    I was crying as I walked through the hallway, feeling like the big mansion was closing in on me. I needed to leave, away from their blame and judgment.My hand shook as I turned the doorknob, the metal cold against my warm skin. The door opened with a loud creak, and fresh air rushed in, feeling so different from the stuffy room I had just left. The cool air hit me hard, waking me up.I paused, trying to understand what had just happened. It felt like a dramatic TV show, but it was my real life, and everything was falling apart.Ignoring the rain pouring outside, I stepped into it, letting it drench my uniform. The cold drops stung my cheeks as I ran away from the mansion. The rain was painful, but it was a relief from my embarrassment.My mind raced as I ran. How did it come to this? I had always felt unwanted in my family. My dad was never happy with me, and when he remarried and had three daughters, I felt even more like a failure. My stepmother didn't want me around either, and sh

    He was really good-looking. The rain had slicked back his hair, showing off his strong cheekbones and intense eyes that seemed to look right into me. His tall, strong body was in a fancy suit that fit him perfectly. He looked like he should be in a fashion magazine, not on the dirty streets we had just driven through.As he opened the car door for me, I took a deep breath to calm down. The castle in front of us was very different from the mansion I'd just left, but it still felt rich and powerful. The walls covered in ivy reached up to the sky, and the windows shone with the warm light of many candles. The man took my elbow and led me up the cobblestone path with a firm but gentle touch.The rain had stopped, and everything felt still, as if nature was holding its breath when he walked by. His beauty was clear, and every move he made promised excitement and pleasure. He seemed like a piece of art, and I suddenly wanted to touch him, to feel his jawline and heartbeat.He brought me thr

    Mr. Harrison was by the fireplace, facing away from me. He took off his shirt, showing strong shoulders and a muscular back. I felt nervous and scared. I knew what I should do, but it was much scarier than I thought.Before I could think, he turned around and looked at me intensely. "You're late," he said in a low voice that made me shiver. "But I see you tried."He stepped closer, his chest almost touching mine. He looked at my dress and then traced his hand along my chest. "Take it off," he ordered.My hands shook as I tried to loosen the ties behind my neck. The fabric fell to the floor, leaving me in just my underwear. He looked me over, and I could see his desire, which scared and excited me at the same time."Good girl," he said, his voice thick with lust. "Now the rest."With shaking hands, I took off my bra. His eyes followed the movement. The air felt charged with anticipation, just like the heat from the fireplace."Lay on the bed," he instructed, his voice smooth and thrill

  • Taken By My boss   His desires

    The door clicked shut softly behind us as Harrison and I entered our room. The house was quiet, but the thought of everything that had happened still hung in the air. The past days had been a whirlwind of emotions, but now, in this moment, there was just the two of us. I walked towards the bed, my heart racing as I thought about everything we had been through. But before I could sit down, I felt Harrison’s presence behind me. I turned slowly, meeting his gaze, and my breath caught in my throat. His eyes were dark, filled with something I couldn’t quite read. He didn’t say anything at first, but I could feel the tension building between us. Without warning, he stepped forward, his hands reaching for me. My heart raced as he gently pulled me into his arms. The warmth of his body surrounded me, and for a moment, I let myself relax, feeling the safety and comfort he always gave me. But then, the moment shifted. Harrison’s hands moved to my waist, his touch firmer now, sending a ripple o

  • Taken By My boss   At home at last

    The moment we stepped through the door, a sense of relief washed over me. We were finally home. It felt like a lifetime since I had last walked through this threshold, but there was something different about this time. It wasn’t just the physical space—it was the change in the air, the way everything seemed just a little bit lighter, a little less heavy. It wasn’t perfect, not by any means, but it was a step in the right direction. I didn’t even have time to fully take in the warmth of the house before my feet were moving toward Ethan’s room. My heart had been heavy with worry ever since I’d heard about the accident. It was like I couldn’t breathe until I knew he was okay. I pushed open the door quietly, my eyes immediately searching for my son. Ethan lay in his crib, surrounded by the soft glow of the nightlight, the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest telling me that he was peacefully asleep. Relief filled me, but it was bittersweet. I stepped closer, careful not to disturb him. T

  • Taken By My boss   The apology

    The atmosphere in the hospital room was heavy, filled with unspoken words and lingering tension. The sterile smell of antiseptic mixed with the soft beeping of machines, the only sound breaking the silence. Rachel sat in the hospital bed, her eyes fixed on the door as she waited. She wasn’t sure what to expect from Luca, especially after everything he had done. But deep down, she hoped that, at the very least, he had changed. Luca stood by the door, his hands clenched tightly by his sides. His face was weary, eyes downcast, as if he was afraid to look anyone in the eye. He had been through so much, but nothing felt as heavy as what he had done to Rachel. He had hurt her, destroyed her family’s trust, and pushed her to the edge. The weight of his actions had followed him every day since, and now he had come to this moment to face the consequences. Harrison stood beside Luca, his presence offering quiet support. He hadn’t said much on the drive over, but Harrison knew this was importan

    the morning sun filled the room with a soft glow. Harrison looked at his brother, Luca. They had done something huge together, something that took all their strength. After everything they’d been through, he didn’t want to keep holding on to their old fights. “Luca,” Harrison said quietly, “I think it’s time we put all this behind us. There’s no point in fighting anymore. We’re brothers. We should stick together.” Before Harrison could say more, Luca spoke up. His voice was low, and there was a sadness in his eyes. “No, Harrison. I need to say something first. I’m sorry.” Harrison was surprised, so he stayed quiet, listening. “I’m sorry for all the pain I caused you, Emma, and Rachel,” Luca continued, looking down. “I let my hunger for power control me. I thought I was doing it for us, for the family, but it was just my pride. I was wrong.” Harrison could see Luca’s regret. This was the apology he had waited for, but now that it was here, it felt strange. He felt a mix of rel

  • Taken By My boss   The evidence released

    Back at Harrison’s apartment, the atmosphere was thick with tension. Harrison moved quietly, his mind still reeling from everything they’d gone through. He and Luca hadn’t spoken much on the way over; both were too lost in their own thoughts, each weighed down by the magnitude of what they were about to do. They were about to open a drive that held the only real chance they had to stop Mr. Blackwood—one of the most dangerous men they’d ever crossed paths with. Harrison took a deep breath, trying to steady himself as he plugged the USB drive into his laptop. His hands were trembling slightly. The weight of what they were about to witness filled him with a mix of dread and resolve. He knew they needed this evidence, but he couldn’t ignore the fact that whatever was on this drive had cost lives—especially the life of Rachel’s sister, a wound that still hadn’t healed. Luca sat beside him, watching Harrison with a calm and focused expression. But Harrison knew his brother well enough to s

    The drive to the hospital was tense and silent. Harrison focused on the road, replaying his approach to Rachel in his mind. He knew she’d be furious seeing Luca, but he also knew they needed her help. Beside him, Luca looked calm, but Harrison sensed his brother’s mind working just as intensely, planning his next steps. When they reached the hospital, Harrison paused outside Rachel’s door, taking a steadying breath. He wasn’t sure how Rachel would react, especially with Luca here. But there was no choice—they needed that USB drive, and time was running out. Pushing open the door quietly, he found Rachel asleep, her breathing soft and steady. The sight of her lying there, still and peaceful, stirred a wave of guilt in Harrison. She’d already sacrificed so much for them. Emma, who had been sitting quietly by Rachel’s bedside, looked up as they entered. She quickly moved over to Rachel and gently shook her shoulder. “Rachel, wake up,” Emma whispered, glancing warily at Luca. Rachel st
