Blood rushed to Kaia’s ear as she felt her heart thump wildly in her chest. Her eyes automatically darted between Keith and Aly. The woman beside her lifted her hands in the air, a gesture of surrender. Tears prickle Aly’s eyes and Therese looked behind her to meet the strangers’ eyes.
There were two men. One was muscular while the other was lean and quite taller than the average guy. They were both wearing a black parka jacket and a cap to hide their faces. Only the muscular man was wearing a mask. Most importantly, he was pointing a gun towards Therese’s right rib.
“Who are you?” She gathered enough courage to ask.
“Hand over the kind and you won’t have to know.”
“No!”
One man chuckled ominously, sending shivers down Therese’s spine. “Are you his mother?”
Her heart beat wild at the thought. She wasn’t sure if it was because of fear or for a completely different reason at all. “N-no.”
“Then how about you pay what the Desmonds owe us instead?” Therese was trying her best to calm herself down. When she looked to the right, Aly was already bawling her eyes out in fear. Keith is almost done choosing an ice cream and she would be damned if the kid–
“$800,000…plus the interest. Now leave the girls alone.”
All four of them turned to the origin of the voice, finding Jayce standing tall a few steps away from the door. “Jayce!” Therese said his name when she saw him hand over a check towards the two men.
“W-what’s going on?” Keith creeped up behind them and. Aly’s eyes widened in panic. She cleared her throat and excused the both of them before covering the poor kid’s eyes so he could see none of it.
Therese let out a sigh of relief when finally, the two were out of the shop.
“So, you already got what you want.”
The two men whispered to each other before turning towards Jayce. The three exchanged glares and Therese could tell that Jayce was holding himself back from attacking the men who tried to take Keith away. “The next time this happens, we wouldn’t go easy on the Desmonds. You got it?”
“Fuck you! What makes you think we couldn’t take you down, huh? The Desmonds could kill you in a snap of–”
“JAYCE!”
Instantly, he was on the ground. Jayce’s lower lip was busted and bleeding, causing Therese to rush to his side and tend to him in panic. But Jayce didn’t go down without a fight. He was up on his feet in no time as he countered a solid punch towards the taller man.
“You motherfucker!”
“Fight me!”
Chaos erupted inside the ice cream shop. In the middle of it all, Therese’s body acted on its own. She was desperate to stop a bloodbath. She pushed herself between the two men and everything that happens after, happened in slow motion.
The next thing she knew, there was blood on the floor and it was coming from her.
–
“I told you, I’m fine.”
“I told you…stay still.”
“Have you watched Keith’s performance? I sent you the video.”
“Later.”
Later that night, Therese found herself in Raven’s bed for a reason aside from sex. He was kneeling before her, tending to the cut on her palm that she got from the incident in the ice cream shop.
“Ouch.” Therese flinched a little when Raven put a cool ointment over the open wound. He quickly searched for her eye and reassured her that it would be fine. She sighed in defeat as silence enveloped the air between them.
Eventually, Raven was the first to speak. “I’m sorry, that happened to you. I promise you won’t find yourself in danger again.”
“Who exactly are those men?”
“They were just jerks I met from the Casino last week. No big deal.”
“No big deal?! Raven, your son was almost kidnapped!” Therese stood up as she couldn’t contain her anger. She knew she was just here to do her job but she couldn’t help but to worry about the kid’s safety outside the house.
“Well…he wasn’t, was he?! Jayce was there just in time!” Raven stood up and matched the tone of her voice. Therese’s chest heaved aggressively. Oh, she wasn’t going to back down from this.
“That wasn’t the point! Stop doing things that put Keith in danger. You’re a grownass man with a lot of money and time! Learn to be a good father too!”
Her words were like arrows to his heart. Raven wore an expressionless face but Therese covered her mouth when she realized that maybe, she went a little overboard this time. She watched as Raven clenched his fists to his side, turning his knuckles white. He stomped closer to her and gritted his teeth in anger.
“You don’t get to tell me what to do. You don’t know anything!”
Therese stepped back. She opened her mouth to retort only to close it again as Raven let angry words spill from his mouth without a filter. “I only allowed you to work for me because of your body. I could find a replacement for you anytime I want.”
And there it was. The ugly truth that she should’ve known to be true by now. She knew that from the start. Yet, a heavy lump still formed at the back of his throat that was too hard to swallow. Hot tears started to form at the corner of her eyes and she blinked it away before turning her back to Raven. Just how low could she allow this man to treat her?
She can’t do this anymore.
He seemed to read her reaction and quickly reached out for her. “Wait. Therese, I–”
“I’ll be packing my bags tomorrow, then.” Therese walked out of the room, leaving a regretful and speechless Raven to despair alone.
“H-haaa…ah..”Therese could not help the sinful moan that escaped her lips. It felt so good to be eaten out like this under the warm yellow light of an expensive bedside lamp. She could hear the sound of her slick clashing with the stranger’s hot tongue. Every stroke, lick, and suck produced wet plopping sounds. She was as embarrassed as she was turned on. Thankfully, this was just a one night stand. “You’re so fucking wet, baby. Is this all for me?” The stranger asked in a deep, honeyed voice that caused her body to twitch in pleasure. Strong and muscular hands traveled up the creamy skin of her thighs. His touch was like fire, burning her sanity until she was reduced to nothing but a moaning mess. “Oh g-god. Please. Please don’t stop.” Therese let her eyes roll to the back of her head as she indulged herself in pleasure. In turn, the stranger buried his face in her pussy, inhaling her sweet and intoxicating scent. He flattened his tongue between her folds, circling her clit with
“Soooo, what happened? Spill the beans, you blooming flower!” “Stop it. It was just a date. Nothing more.” She gulped audibly. Therese almost beat herself up for lying to her best friend like this.The cute girl with a bob haircut and eyeglasses hit her playfully. “Oh come on!”Today, she was having lunch with her best friend, Alyssa Jones as if nothing happened. Their class in major just ended and Alyssa was craving for chicken katsu. Only their campus canteen has the best one so Therese decided to give it a go. She was wearing a navy blue turtleneck blouse despite the sun shining brightly above them. Her long, black hair tied into a high ponytail. Nervously, she was watching her best friend’s every move to notice if the girl saw any marks on her skin…particularly, on her neck. Ugh, why did that handsome man need to be rough? She wasn’t complaining, though. It’s just that she would rather die from heat than admit to her best friend that she had a one night stand with an insanely ho
It had been a long time since Raven felt something like this. After his one night stand with that woman, he could not forget the way she moaned for him and how tight she was around his dick. She was perfectly etched on his skin and she left him craving for more. “H-haaa…fuck.” That is how he found himself standing too long under the hot shower, touching his raging boner to the image of her naked in his head like a horny teenage boy. With his hot breath fogging his bathroom mirror, Raven let his hands wrap around his dick, pumping it up and down. He made sure to give an extra tight grip on a certain spot under its tip to build the pleasure coiling in his balls. How he wished it was her hands working wonders instead. Raven imagined fucking her from behind. He pictured her on all fours, angling her butt and thrusting back to meet his rhythm in a perfect sync of push and pull. “Ha-aah, yes!” She would flick her long, ebony hair as she would turn around and stare at him in hooded gaze,
When Therese arrived at the address given by the sender of the email, she gulped nervously. She double checked it just in case she was standing in the wrong place at the wrong time. Was this really DesmondTech? The most renowned gadget company to exist? The place was straight out of fiction! It made her feel out of place as she looked at the sleek glass and steel facade of the building. What appeared in front of her was a towering skyscraper dominating the skyline. She was about to meet with a man named Raven Desmond on the 200th floor. Wait, was she supposed to go for a more formal attire?The thought and the place was intimidating but there’s no backing out now. “You’ve got this, girl. Therese gave herself an encouraging self-pat as she took out her compact mirror from her purse and checked her appearance for the nth time. She wanted to make sure that her wine red lipstick was exuding professionalism and complimented her white long sleeve blouse. She smoothed her high-waisted penc
Tomorrow came early for Therese. She could not believe it was already Sunday, the day when she would finally move in with Raven Desmond and his son. Technically, “moving in” wasn’t the right term. She convinced herself that what she was about to do was nothing but work. She had to maintain professionalism even if her guts would be rearranged every night. Her heartbeat rose when she thought about what was to come. “Good morning, Ms. Barlow. Please, let me help you with that.” The cheerful voice of a man wearing a neat bun greeted him the moment she stepped out of her house. He was wearing a smile so wide that it made his eyes disappear. The sun was shining brightly and the wind was kind enough to dry her lightly wet hair from the shower. After their meeting yesterday, Raven told her that he would make an arrangement for her. Someone would pick her up and drive her to his place where everything was prepared for her. She couldn’t sleep then. “Uhm, thank you.” Therese handed him her
It felt like time was suspended in the air. Everything that surrounded Therese had stopped moving except for the two. Her eyes were as big as saucers as she watched in horror how Raven eagerly fucked the blonde girl under him. She couldn’t look away.“What the hell?” When she finally regained her composure, Therese quickly took a step back as she covered her eyes to hide the sinful scene away.“Don’t look away!” Raven commanded in a deep and hurried voice as he continued to smirk and pound the girl. “I want you to see a glimpse of what’s to come for you, baby.” He said in between heavy breaths and Therese found herself peeking between her fingers.Was he out of his mind?! Therese was speechless. “Hold on…I’m about to…” Her eyes were glued to Raven’s toned abs down his manhood that was plunging in and out of the woman’s dripping hole. She was on all fours now, letting out ah’s and oh god’s nonstop.“This is insane. You are insane.” Therese muttered as she swallowed hard. She thought she
