KylanI followed her regardless of her words. It was already past midnight, and these periods were particularly dangerous for a defenseless lady such as Lisa. It was my fault that she was still out by this time, so the least I could do was offer her some bit of protection even if she wasn't aware of it. I paused momentarily, and for a second questioned myself. Why did I care? This was the same woman who had embarrassed me on my wedding day. It clicked, I was doing this so she wouldn't get hurt. I was doing it because I wanted to make sure I was the only one who got to hurt her. I didn't want another man doing my job, and that was exactly why I was doing all of this, it wasn't because of anything else. After convincing myself that all of this was for the greater goal, I continued to follow Lisa. My protection was crucial, the last thing I wanted was for her to get kidnapped or killed before I had the chance to get my revenge, it would ruin everything. Lost in thought, I stumbled on
KatarinaI couldn't help myself, it was becoming an addiction at this point, and I just couldn't stop myself no matter how hard I tried. My mind wandered, and each time he came to my mind, I'd feel my heartbeat increase ecstatically. What was this feeling? And why couldn't I get rid of it. I managed to get it out of my mind and focus on getting home first. It was a good thing he hadn't insisted on following me right to my doorstep. Jerome was the kind of man who was stubborn to the end, and I knew I wouldn't be able to change his mind if he had decided on it. He always did what he wanted, and knew how to get on my nerves. However, those little things he did were exactly what kept me up at night. His smile as he committed those little crimes, every wrinkle on his face, I had committed them to memory, and now I couldn't stop thinking about him. Finally reaching the door, I pushed it open and entered the crowded apartment. Without wasting time, I undressed myself and immediately coll
KylanThe last thing I wanted was for Lisa to see me with another person, but Penelope had made that task impossible. We had met at the parking lot, and she had insisted on following me inside. She was a former business acquaintance of mine, and although I didn't keep friends, Penelope was someone who I had worked with, and her work was commendable. She was leaving the country tomorrow, and had insisted on spending her last hours in this city with me.At first I didn't want to allow it. Not only would it give Lisa a thread to possibly link me to Kylan, I also didn't want Penelope sticking her nose in my business. She clearly didn't know that I was once rejected on the altar by my runaway ex-bride to be. But regardless of that, it would be difficult to act so complacent with Lisa while she was around. However, on the other hand, having Penelope around might just be what I needed to get Lisa wrapped around my finger for good. I could already feel the attraction between us, she was
KatarinaThree days had passed without any signs of Jerome. It was the first time he had stayed away for this long and I wasn't sure if I should be worried or happy. It was three days of no harassment from him, I didn't have to work extra because of him, but at the same time everything felt slow without his presence. It felt as though life was boring when he was gone, and looking back now, I had come to realize he was the only person who had made things a bit interesting in my life ever since I decided to run away from my wedding."Are you missing him?" Ella teased after she noticed I had been staring at the table Jerome used to sit for too long."Why would I miss him? He's nothing but trouble." I answered quickly before walking away to attend to a customer. I knew Ella would tease me if I continued to hang around, and I really wasn't in the mood to be mocked at the moment. I took the customer's orders, and as soon as I returned, Ella picked up from where she stopped. "I really tho
KylanWork kept piling in one after the other. No matter how hard I tried to finish up, something else always popped up from the sidelines, and this had continued for a week straight now. I haven't seen Lisa in seven days, and I genuinely had no idea how she was doing. I had intended to send someone to spy on her, but had decided against that. I wanted to be the only one who does the spying, and clearly didn't want anybody else to take my job.After finishing up with the work on my system, I strolled out of my office and headed towards the conference where presumably the others were already settled. It was definitely going to be one of the most awkward meetings I was going to attend. Though the company in attendance was in a partnership with ours now, my brother, Christopher, was going to be in the meeting. His presence made no sense, it wasn't as if he was the owner of the company, and most importantly it was for staff only. But Christopher couldn't care less about that.Ignoring a
Katarina I thought I was hallucinating until I bumped into him. But even then, I still refused to believe that he was the one standing in front of me. It was only after he smiled at me did I finally accept the reality that Jerome was really the man standing before me.It had been eight days since I last saw him, and those eight days had not been very nice for me. I had missed his presence, and was at the verge of driving myself insane with the thoughts of him."Did you suddenly lose your vision while I was gone, or did you do that intentionally to spite me for leaving for so long?" His deep baritone voice washed through my body like a gentle breeze. My heartbeat escalated, and for a straight minute I continued to stare at him in utter disbelief."Y.. you're here?" I stammered in shock just before Ella's cold hand rested on my shoulder, jolting me back to reality. "You've made a mess, Lisa." Ella chastised me as she bent low to pick up the pieces of the shattered glass. "I'm so sorry
KatarinaJerome stared at me with a hint of shock in his eyes. He hadn't expected such a request from me, and I had no idea I could make such a request either. "Are you sure?" He asked for clarification purposes, and I nodded shyly. Before I had the chance to breathe, Jerome's lips crashed into mine.Even though I had expected it, the kiss had been unexpected. There was eagerness in his eyes, but it was gentle, as if he was testing the waters. I closed my eyes, savoring the warmth and the softness of his lips against mine. Time seemed to pause, and the feel of his tongue in my mouth had my body quaking in manners I could not explain. After what felt like both an eternity and just a fleeting second, he pulled away, his eyes searching mine for any sign of regret or hesitation. I could feel the heat rising to my cheeks as I struggled to find the right words."I..I...thank you." I stammered before turning away in embarrassment. I hadn't expected it to be this good, I could still feel th
KylanI returned to the hotel I was staying in thirty minutes after departing from Lisa's place. My plan was moving smoothly, and things were going a lot better than I had planned. I could tell she had missed me, she was falling slowly, and that was exactly what I wanted. I would crush her once I was certain that her heart belonged to me. But for now, it was crucial for me to take things slowly, the last thing I wanted was for her to grow suspicious of me and decide to pull away. "Room service is here." A feminine voice announced, and I quickly unlocked the door to let her in. "So how are we going to do this—""Don't talk, just take off your clothes and wait for me." I interjected before locking the door behind me. Playing with Lisa had gotten me more excited than I had anticipated. I needed to relieve myself quickly, else I would end up with blue balls the next day. The lady obeyed without words. Her body was perfect, silky smooth skin with moderately sized breasts. However, I f
