CENRIC
“Hi.”
“Hello?” I’d been watching her since she walked into the launching of the game. She was wearing a blue back slit strapless mini dress hugging her hourglass figure. Since then, I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She had this strong aura. Her blue eyes stood out aside from her gorgeous face. Her shapely legs and pert ass, my dick just twitched in my pants. And those tits alone. Damn.
“I think I know you from somewhere. Have we met before?”
She rolled her eyes. “Really? What a shitty pickup line you got there, Wollf. You may be a billionaire, but you suck at it. I guess most women don’t even care, right? As long as you have deeper than the Challenger Deep pocket.” She sipped her bubbles, studying me from head to toe.
I chuckled in amusement. “I guess I get used to women who are throwing themselves to me. I don’t need to use pickup lines anymore. It’s so unfortunate that my pickup lines don’t work with you.”

SADIE “Can I ask a favor?” Devin looked at me through the rearview mirror. “Sure?” “Sure? You mean you’re not sure?” I asked in confusion. “Well, it depends. If it involves asking permission from your husband or not.” I sighed in dismay as I looked outside the window. “Never mind.” “Come on. Give it a try.” “I wanna spend some time with Zhuri before I start working. Just Zhuri and me walking around in the park, shopping in the mall, or having a cup of coffee in a cafe. Just for a day. Is it too much to ask? I’m not a president’s daughter, for God’s sake.” “I can be persuasive. I’ll give him a call.” “No!” I gripped his shoulder before he could dial Cenric’s number. “Don’t do that. He’s gonna give me a lecture and tell me I told you not to blah blah blah.” “Just trust me, okay?” I looked at him in the eye before he focused back on the road. “Fine.” As if Cenric was waiting for
CENRIC “What the fuck is going on?” “Just come home if someone could cover you.” Linden’s voice over the phone sounded urgent, and he wouldn’t call unless there was a life-and-death situation. So I had to make my trip short? “Yeah. Cas can do that. Why?” Cas looked at me as he heard his name. “What’s wrong?” “About to find out. I need to take the jet home. You okay to charter or fly commercial?” “I’m not the billionaire, of course.” He shrugged. “But the people who are excited to see you will be damn disappointed.” “Sorry, bro. You know what to do, and you’re charming than me.” “They still want to meet the hero turned billionaire, but sure. Just give me an update of whatever is going on back home.” “I will, and you too. Call me as soon as it’s over.” “Will do. Take care.” *** Beck already informed the pilot of the change of flight. “Lucky day. You’re going back home. Linden di
SADIE Watching Devin beaten up for being wrongly accused broke my heart. I wiped my face dry. “Untie him, please?” I looked at them one by one and to my husband. “Untie him,” he ordered Beck. “What is it that you’re not telling me, Sadie?” “Devin is just the weak link. My brother wants to destroy him for choosing me and changing his loyalty to you. He didn’t take it lightly. Devin knows his dirty little secrets that he can use against him. I know how Jasper thinks, but Devin and I are just pawns for him—the Achilles heel. His main objective is coming after you.” “What is that he wants for Cenric?” Beck asked. “I heard my father once that my brother is not capable of running his business or organization, whatever it is. Of course, since I was born, I’m out of his preferences. Women can’t lead. That’s what he believed in.” My husband chuckled, “And he thinks I’m a perfect choice? I’m running my empire. I don’t need hi
CENRIC “I’m sorry. I was just protecting Zhuri. It’s not her fault.” “Babe, I know.” I squeezed her hand. I was pissed off but not for not telling me something was going on with her friend. And that her brother was already using Zhuri to get information from her. I understood why Zhuri had to give him what he’d asked. “I wish you just that tell me right away.” “I was also trying to figure out how to tell you and how to solve it without getting too complicated. What are you going to do?” “Don’t worry. No one is gonna touch Zhuri. Your brother might have leverage against her. I need to talk to her in person.” “Okay. We’ll do that. Don’t get mad.” When she looked at me like that, and she used that tone at me, how could I? I kissed her forehead. “We’re in this together. And I’m not mad at you. I’m pissed off at your brother, yes. And beyond. Why won’t he just leave us alone?” “We’re here,” Beck announced. “Le
SADIE He’s going to kill me. He’s going to be so mad at me. While he was giving orders to the guys, I sneaked out. I knew he just gave me an order to stay put, but I was not his employee. I wanted to put an end to this madness. My brother had gone irate, threatening those two hardworking employees for his own satisfaction. Seeing them so terrified because of my brother’s doing and that family had to leave their home for their safety—that was just horribly wrong and unfair. Cenric could be furious at me. I cared about him, but Jasper had targeted his company. I couldn’t just watch him as he ruined lives and my husband’s properties. I had to do something. Maybe, my way would not cause more chaos to both parties. I hailed a cab to a coffee shop where I knew it was exposed, and my brother could not hurt me in public. I also had to be careful with a possible viral video of Jasper and me in a heated argume
CENRIC “Where the fuck is my wife?” I yelled at the three of them. They were the best, and I just proudly told Toby, yet a woman who was not capable of escaping managed to sneak out from them in broad daylight. “Are you all just gonna fucking look at me?” “There’s only one thing I think she would do,” Beck replied. “She’s going to meet her brother.” “I can find her if you let me use a computer,” Toby suggested. “No!” we chorused. “Okay.” He cowered into his seat. “Let me find her,” William offered. “No need,” I told him. “I can’t believe my finest men just get played by a woman.” I fished out my phone and tapped on the app. “Your wife is a smart woman. You just underestimated her, sir,” Devin said. I lifted my gaze from the screen to him. “I’m not asking for your compliment and opinion. And, of course, my wife is smart. Why else would I marry a beautiful but lacking intelligence?” I
SADIE The trip home was the most excruciating and awkward I had. No one had tried to break the silence. I kept my mouth shut as well. I didn’t want to cause more anger to Cenric than I already had. I could also feel that he was about to erupt like a dormant volcano. What kept me thinking was how to deal if he would do what I felt I deserved. Even if he would cut my internet privilege again, I would gladly accept his retribution. But I did what I thought would help us, and I had no regrets. The silence was killing me. I could even hear my own heartbeat. Cenric’s eyes were on his phone, and he was typing the entire time, but I didn’t miss the way his jaw tensed. Beck and Devin noticed the tension, but they didn’t say anything. Beck turned on the Podcast instead—the topic was about the kids who were the casualties in a war. I managed to divert my tension as I listened with him.
CENRIC After we fucked in the shower, we made love in bed. It was intense and addicting as I watched and gave what made her craze and bend to her desire. “You’ve been silent.” I look down at her. I was running my fingers against her soft skin while her head was on my hip. Her hand was just on my lower abs, and her arm was literally on my dick. “Just thinking about what your brother said.”This is not over. “Find something to stop him, even if he will go to jail. It’s better than threatening an innocent guy who works hard to meet his needs.” “It’s hard to lock your brother up. You should know that your father has some connections both in the government and criminal world.” “What do you mean?” she lifted her head, staring at me in shock. She really had no idea about her family, had she? “I’m not gonna let you carry the burden of your family secret.” I shook my head. “You ar
SADIE Three years later… My husband in a perfectly tailored suit was drool-worthy. In a blue military uniform, damn, my uterus just contracted. He always took my breath away, even after years of marriage. Cenric was finally called. He gripped my hand before he rose and walked to the stage to receive his award. I turned to my side to look at my guys, applauding their brother. Cenric was awarded Humanitarian of the year for his philanthropic works and considerable donations to the military. “Once a Marine, always a Marine,” he quoted. “I’m proud to have services this wonderful nation. I would always help and support my brothers in service and our people.” He looked at his award. “Thank you for recognizing my humble works.” He then found me in the audience. “Semper Fidelis.” I rose from my seat just like everyone and applauded him. His brothers in arms loved him—they admired him. So did I. I
CENRIC Jasper’splace was on a small island—a fishing community turned into a beautiful resort that could only be reached by boats. It was a summer paradise, away from crowded tourists. As we arrived at the harbor, the view from there just took my breath away. “How many women did you bring here before me?” I knew she was messing with me. I smiled. “Jealous?” “Nah. I’m always into Greek gods. You know with tan skin, hard specs, dashboard abs with long and thick—” She shrugged, making girls laugh out loud. “Long and thick what, Sadie Wollf?” I reminded her of the surname she was carrying. She shrugged again. “Hair and thighs?” I wasn’t aware the guys were also listening. They burst out laughing. Terrible things happened from my past, and my extreme decisions led me to meet my soulmate—my wife. Sadie never ceased to amaze me. My chest expanded as I realized that God always had reasons for everythin
CENRIC The jet just took off. My wife invited her friends, Maeve and Zhuri, and of course, Becka to this trip. We were supposed to be on our honeymoon, but she decided to do something before our Italy trip. I couldn’t say no to her because after last night, and I didn’t think I could defy my wife again. We were supposed to fuck our brains out, and I should have taken her warning seriously, so here we were, flying to Greece. “I apologized about last night,” I tried to talk it out, hoping it would work. She rested her head on my shoulder as she scrolled the photographs of our wedding. “I didn’t sleep with you because I was mad.” “Oh. You have—” I didn’t finish my words. “Fuck me.” She giggled. “That’s not my fault.” Her smile was wicked. Maybe she was just messing with me or something. Anyhow, I played along. After a few hours, we landed. We were picked up by my contact and drove to the pier. It was hotter this time.
SADIE “Are you nervous?” Becka asked me. I blew a shaky breath. “No. Not at all. I’m excited, unlike my first wedding. I wanted to run if there was a chance. I thought I was marrying a mafia boss.” In a few minutes, I was going to be married to the same man—the love of my life, for the second time—this time, at the back of our house. I wasn’t wearing anything extravagant like my first wedding. This time I wore a minimalist satin-wrapped wedding dress with a hat to honor my late English father, Lewis. Last week, we found out he was buried in London. We took a quick trip and visited his grave. “Are you ready?” I nodded at Austin. “Yes,” I asked him if he could walk me down the aisle. He was even glad and said yes. When the music started, I took a deep breath and walked towards my man waiting for me. He was wearing a simple beige suit and pants and a white crisp open-button shirt. He always looked breathtaking dressed or naked. Fo
CENRIC “I came here today to marry my girl, to cherish her, to protect and respect her, and to be the faithful husband to her. I knew the first time I saw you, and you would be the woman I wanted to spend my life with. I knew you would change me to be the best version of myself. Today, I swear to you to have your back, be your number one supporter, love you faithfully, and honor what we have from today and onwards. I give you my heart, my life, and my soul.” I just watched my vow over and over again as she kept replaying it in the entertainment room. In the video, she looked so innocent as she stared at me while I read my vow. I didn’t write anything. When you were caught in that moment, you just spoke from your heart—that was what happened that day. She wiped her face again. She did that every time she played that clip. She was crying, and I didn’t know why. Did my vow touch her? Had she realized something, or had she changed her min
SADIESince I heard the news weeks ago that my father—the man I thought he was, pleaded guilty on all charges, it kept me awake at night. How wouldn’t I miss when his face was all over the news? And I felt like we had an unfinished business. And I needed that closure.I had never felt this twist in the pit of my stomach as I sat on the visiting lounge. Even if guards and a glass wall were separating us, I still felt unsafe.When he walked in, goosebumps erupted all over my skin.Our eyes met.He smiled.Hanslo Greer was still the man I once knew, although he looked different than the last time I saw him. I could feel the difference—I couldn’t find any intimidation, and he looked powerless and less arrogant in his prison uniform.I picked up the phone, but I didn’t say anything.“Sadie, what are you doing here? Does your husband know you’re here?” I wasn’t e
CENRIC “Oh, God.” She bit her lip as she tried not to scream. I told her to keep her voice down if she wanted to come. The house may be big but not soundproof. I was pushing her to her brink while my fingers were doing the job. I thrust in and out of her drenched pussy, and my tongue teased her hardening clit. I scissored my fingers into her, and she shook in pleasure. I groaned and sucked her clit, her hips shooting up. “So good,” she moaned. Her lids fluttered shut. I knew she was close. Her walls started clumping against my fingers. “Come for me, babe.” I withdrew out and then plunged in deeper and rocked her faster, hitting her g-spot. She threw her head back, her hips rocking forward before she stilled as she came so hard. She dropped her body down the bed, laying boneless with splayed limbs as her orgasm went on and on. I crawled over and covered her with my body before I took her mouth. She quickly kissed
SADIE “Which from the two?” Tanner showed us the kind of blue colors. “This one.” Cenric had already chosen my behalf, but Tanner was still waiting for my choice. “Yup. This one.” “Her eyes.” He nodded as if he was not convinced of Cenric’s choice. “Trust me, Tanner. I know my wife.” He was sitting on my desk with his arms crossed over his chest. “Ace,” he said before he left. “I’m starting to dislike that guy.” I closed the folder on my desk and eyed him. “He’s nice, and Maeve is reporting tomorrow. I sent her flowers. Anyway, do you know—” “She and Beck are dating?” “Wow! You’re updated than me.” “I pay attention to my guys.” “So, you’re not leaving this office until I agree to free my whole Saturday?” He’d been patient. Since our parking lot encounter, we had decided to stay under one roof. We slept in the same bed, but that was all. He didn’t initiate
CENRIC You’re the best. Fuck, yeah.I kept reminding myself. I went back home after work. I didn’t bother her anymore. The more I kept my distance, the easier it was for her to figure out what she wanted in her life. It was hard. I missed her every second she was away from me. But she needed it, and that was what she got. That was two days ago. No call. No text. I didn’t even ask Devin for updates. And here I was, stalking my wife. Beck just shook his head in disappointment. “You’re losing your shit. What is in the fucking of need space you did not understand? You will still see her on Saturday, won’t you?” “She needs space, but I don’t. I want to see her, not meet her. And can’t you be a little supportive of me?” “Supportive my ass. You did this to yourself. But whatever. If she sees us, you’re gonna have to explain. Then she needs another week or two. Your trouble, man. Not mine.”
