Tuesday morning Ares was ready to pull his hair out. He’d given her the day to rethink the words she’d said to him but by this morning she hadn’t so much as texted him. Was she really so pissed off about him not calling she would end things without allowing any explanation at all?
It was six in the morning and he was outside her house. Jake was distracting the security guards by arguing with them over their slack behavior and he managed to slip past them and knocked on the door. He could hear someone moving about inside and muffled speaking and then the dog yipping when he knocked again.
“Magda!” he yelled her name on the other side of the door. At the very least, she was going to hear his side of the story and if after this she was truly done, he knew he had to respect her decision but he wasn’t giving up without her knowing the truth of what happened. He heard the curse from one of the women and then frantic movement, “sweeth
“How do I look?” Magda asked Sienna nervously.“Gorgeous, of course.”Sienna grinned at her from where she lay reclined on Magda’s bed amid a collection of clothing. “I can’t believe you agreed to go out with him after the coffee thing.”“It wasn’t his fault,” Magda turned sideways to look at her reflection in the mirror. “The girl dumped the entire coffee on him.”“Mags, he took his pants off in a coffee shop.”“He had a burn on his thigh.”“He wasn’t wearing underwear.”“He covered himself with a napkin.”“The fact he can cover himself with a napkin should have you running in the opposite direction,” Darya quipped as she re-entered the room.“His thigh was the color of a strawberry,” Magda grunted as she applied the lipstick Darya passed her.“Can I point
In the back seat of Miklos’ limo, Magda was wedged between Sienna and Ajax and was happily sipping a glass of prosecco. Sienna and Ajax were discussing their shared love of books and reading while Darya was pushing Miklos to teach her the ways of his life.“I’m only saying, if you let Dimi do it, then any woman should be given a fair shake,” Darya wasn’t backing down.“Darya, Dimitra herself does not enjoy the work in the warehouse.”“I want to whip a dude until the skin peels off their back,” she said bluntly.Magda groaned, “Miklos, she had a half bottle of vodka before we left your place. She’s drunk. She doesn’t mean it.”“Yes, I do. I really want to cause pain which will not result in my sub coming all over himself.”Miklos choked on his own spittle as Dimi roared with laughter and Magda and Sienna both shook their heads at Darya’s antics. &l
Darya frowned at her. “What do you mean?” “I went to the bathroom and Ares was waiting for me inside. He was paying girls fifty bucks a head to stay out of the bathroom until he knew I’d go in.” “Are you kidding me?” Darya jumped off the table and stood in front of her. “Are you okay?” “The woman who interrupted our date last weekend was the woman who tried to murder his mother by pushing her down a flight of stairs because she was obsessed with Ares and thought his mother was in their way. She escaped from her psychiatric facility and went straight to his mother’s house.” She knew her eyes were as wide as Darya’s were. Her friend covered her mouth and spoke through her fingers. “Didn’t you say his mom is a paraplegic?” She nodded sadly, “yes apparently caused by this freak and then to make matters worse, his mother’s condition got worse Friday night. Basically, he had a psycho stalker on his hands and his mother who was having signifi
Magda followed Ares into the house and felt her stomach flop in amazement at the incredible place he called home.She paused in the foyer and looked around, her eyes as wide as pie plates, she was sure. Her parents were wealthy but this place was next level and she did a slow turn in the space incredulously.“Ares, this is –” her words trailed off as she looked around.“I hope it’s a good loss for words.” he chuckled as he tossed his keys carelessly into a dish on a side table.Two staircases wound around the circular foyer they were in to reach the second floor but where one of them stopped on the second floor, the other continued up to a third floor. The ceiling felt it was stupendously high as she looked up at the black chandelier hanging from it over the entrance. The floors were a stark white marble tile beneath her feet. She had a strange urge to take a running start and then slide across the expansive hall.
Ares had left her to get into the tub on her own. This felt a very seductive segue to spending the night together, she considered, as he had lit some candles and dimmed the lights in the bathroom before giving her a few moments to slip under the bubbles which he had made sure were plentiful.Her legs were still trembling and for all the attempts at flirting and bravado she’d had egging him this evening, now she was facing the very real knowledge she was going to sleep with a man, actually have intercourse with a guy, and it happened to be the one she’d been fantasizing for over a month. Yet, for as nervous as she felt, in her gut she knew this was right for her. She had no misgivings about what she was doing, only about the actual act itself. Dimi telling her and Darya she had bled was making her nervous. God, she prayed it didn’t hurt.He had offered her a glass of wine before slipping out of the tub and now she was wishing she had taken it as she su
He was behind her in a flash, droplets of water hitting the wood floor with a patter as he folded a towel around his waist and she knew without a doubt the shorts had disappeared in the bathroom. Good. She liked him when he was excited like this.She stood at the end of the bed, clutching the towel to the front of her and smiling at him, hoping it was the come-hither glance she was aiming for.“Fuck you are gorgeous,” he said bluntly as he approached her with sure footed steps. He tugged the towel from her fingertips and tossed it aside and let his gaze rake her body. “You gave me an eyeful and then almost ran into this bedroom. Either you anxious for me or you were running from me. Which is it?”“A week ago, you said our first time would require a big bed and lots of time.” She gave a flick of her wrist to the bed behind her, the back of her knees touching it as he stalked closer to her. She was naked in front of him while he wore a towel, hung delicately over his narrow hips. His br
Magda surfaced from the cocoon of sleep to find herself locked in a warm embrace and a very hard reminder poking into her backside of what she had done before. She was in Ares’ bed after he’d made love to her, and it had been the best experience of her life.She was thrilled to still be laying here but couldn’t deny she was unsure of how to proceed. Half of her wanted to burrow under the blankets and pretend she wasn’t there. The other half wanted to touch the man behind her and resume where they’d left off before she’d fallen asleep exhausted in his arms.Evidently, he was feeling the same way as his member twitched behind her. The dawn had brought with it insecurities about waking up next to him and she felt nervous about opening her eyes despite her increased arousal from the heat of him poking into her backside.She felt his hands tighten around her middle and then felt a warm kiss pressed to her shoulder followed by
Magda giggled as she sat on a stool at the giant kitchen island wrapped up in Ares’ oversized bathrobe and he flung flour in her direction. He was wearing nothing but boxers as he prepared their breakfasts. They had gone for a soak in the hot tub and then a swim, both done completely nude and involved a lot of heavy petting and kissing.She was discovering where he was concerned, she was becoming addicted. He couldn’t step past her without somehow touching her or putting his lips to her. He was very touchy feely and it was making her feel wonderfully special. She found herself leaning into every stroke and caress and wanting to touch him as much as he touched her.Right now, because he was preparing their breakfast, she had been relegated to sitting on the stool and staying out of reach because she was a distraction and he’d already burned a pan of scrambled eggs kissing her mindless.She giggled again as he kept trying to rub his nose on his s
