On the other hand, Roseanne was talking to Nicholas' colleagues and he was introducing his friends. She was surprised to see that in the last five years, Nicholas had made good friends. Most of these people were people who either worked with him or he had business relations with them. However, it was quite fascinating for her to see Nicholas, who usually avoids people making friends. It seemed that he finally learned the value of having good people around him. Mrs Taylor suddenly stood next to her and said, “Miss Deluca, there is a young man outside asking for your presence.” “For me?” Roseanne asked, surprised. Mrs Taylor nodded innocently. She was acting like she was not trying to sow discord between the couple. She just wanted to see if Nicholas would get jealous if she used such terminology but she was disappointed by his reaction. Roseanne looked at Nicholas and exchanged a look. “I will come with you,” He said to her. They could not leave Roseanne alone as the killer might
Roseanne said to Nicholas as soon as she stood next to him, “She is so weird.”“Who?” Nicholas asked in curiosity. Roseanne answered, “Mrs Taylor. She is a very weird creature.”Nicholas smiled as Mrs Taylor’s reputation in the circle was quite something. He said, “You only met her once and you are saying it.”“Don't you feel so?” Roseanne asked him. “Umm, I wouldn't say so,” Nicholas said to her. His perception of that woman might be the most different and a little in-depth of all the people here. Nicholas expressed what he has analyzed throughout the years of meeting Mrs Taylor, “Mrs Taylor is an eccentric woman, Rose. She plays bitchy.” He paused for a moment and then added, “Actually, it's not a play but a part of her personality. I wouldn't call her kind because she is far from it. However, if you limit her by saying that she is a bitch or a weird woman, remember that she succeeded in making you underestimate her. She is far from being that. Mrs Taylor will chew you and spit y
The evening event came to an end, and Roseanne and Nicholas left for their residence after enjoying several drinks and raising toasts with fellow attendees. Engaging in extensive socializing, they found alcohol to be a significant component of the gathering. Yet, they remained only slightly intoxicated, not fully drunk. Roseanne felt overheated and thirsty after sitting in the car. She thought of trying a new dish but she hadn't anticipated it would be so spicy that her mouth still tingled with a slight burning sensation."Nicholas, could you pass me the water, please?" Roseanne requested, noticing the bottle was within his reach on his other side, making it convenient for him to hand it to her.However, she hadn't anticipated his response.Dismissing her request, he replied, "I'm busy. Get it yourself."Despite his abrupt dismissal, Roseanne didn't mind and decided to fetch the water herself.As she leaned in to reach for the water bottle situated on his other side, her breast inad
“Out!” Nicholas barked at the driver who just entered to drive them to the house. They were still parked outside the venue as the driver had yet to come to drive them back. The driver shivered as he heard the voice and didn't even bother to look back. When he entered the car, he didn't expect to find his boss in such a scene. He had been working with his boss for two years and had never seen Nicholas with a woman. It was a shock for him but he ran as soon as he could to save his life. Nicholas and Roseanne were making out in the car. He was kissing her fervently while she was responding in equal ferocity. It was not just him who could not control his emotions at this time, she was going through something similar at the time. She felt so much heat inside her body that she didn't know what to unleash him out. The animal inside her was trying to come out and eat the man out wholly. She had never felt such a strong feeling before. As a woman she had her needs but she had always been abl
. “Nicholas…” All she could utter was his name at the moment. He was so amazing with his hands and mouth. She wished that his mouth never left her body as he was licking her neck and collarbone with his warm and wet tongue. She found herself lost in a pool of sensations as Nicholas's lips hungrily sucked her bosom. His tongue tracing circles around her sensitive flesh. With each flick of his tongue, a low moan escaped her lips. Her body was arching instinctively towards his touch. Soon his hand slipped beneath the fabric of her skirt. Her breath caught in her throat as she was anticipating his next move. He navigated past the barrier of her panties as his fingers were eagerly exploring the slick warmth of her core. She gasped as his touch ignited a fire within her. She was already on fire. And his touch just added fire to fire. Her body responded eagerly to his every caress and as if he remembered every inch of her body, his movements were calculated to drive her to the brink of
As they reached the Hart mansion, they retreated to their room where they would be staying together. An awkward tension hung in the air as neither of them dared to touch the subject of their passionate encounter in the car. Nicholas broke the silence as he asked, “What will you do now?”“I will check up on children first,”Roseanne said. “Although mom said they are sleeping, I will just look at them.”Nicholas nodded his head. Roseanne asked, “What about you?”“I will go to sleep,”Nicholas said. Perhaps, she would feel less awkward if he just went to sleep. The weight of unspoken words and awkwardness loomed heavily in the room. Unable to bear the stifling atmosphere any longer, Roseanne excused herself to the children's room and when later when she entered their bedroom she didn't find Nicholas. Thanking her stars, she straight entered the bathroom. If she saw him again, it would be very awkward between the two of them. It would be better for her to let him go to sleep so they wo
As she got comfortable, a hand connected with her flesh in a sharp slap. It evoked a suprise gasp from her. "Ah!" she exclaimed, the sting of his touch sending a jolt of sensation through her body.Spank. "What a beautiful color, Rose," he remarked, his voice filled with admiration as he observed the mark left by his hand."It looks exactly how you blush," he added, delivering another playful spank to her ass."Ah!" she cried out once more, the mixture of pleasure and anticipation coursing through her veins."Is it paining?" he inquired, his concern evident in his voice."N..no," she managed to reply, her voice trembling with excitement.Skillfully, he alternated between gentle caresses and playful spanks. Each touch igniting a new wave of heat within her core. His slaps weren't meant to cause pain but to stoke the flames of desire. To a great extent he was getting what be had planned. "Tell me that you want my cock," Nicholas demanded, his voice commanding.“I …”Roseanne couldn'
When he realized that she was not going to stirr in her sleep, he wore clothes again and went to the kids room, still holding that glass of milk. Roseanne couldn't finish full. Some of it was still left. When he entered the kids room, he saw that Leon was still awake. It was quite late at night. Leon was not supposed to be awake. When Roseanne checked on him before, he was fast asleep. “Why are you awake?” Nicholas asked him in concern. Leon told him, “I'm making a card.”He was busy drawing doodles on the blue card that he was holding at the moment. “For?” Nicholas couldn't help but ask. Leon said, “My English project. I'm supposed to make a card.”Nicholas understood that Leon could not sleeo because he was burdened with his homework. Although the kids were not going to physical school, their classes were online. It helped them to be familiar with studies. “What's the topic?” Nicholas asked hin. Leon answered, “The man who is my idol.”“Who's your idol, Leon?” Nicholas couldn
His voice dropped lower as he confessed, “Oh, Sia baby, I have dreamed of this every single day.” Leaning in, his lips found her neck, planting a trail of kisses that sent shivers cascading down her spine. Each kiss was deliberate, slow, and tantalizing as his lips explored the soft curves and bumps of her skin. He sucked and nipped gently, leaving her breathless and causing her to arch her back in excitement. His tongue darted out, tasting the warmth of her skin. The sensation was electric, making her clutch the bedsheet to steady herself. She was completely at his mercy, her body responding in ways she didn’t fully understand. Every touch was igniting a fire within her. He moved lower while his lips brushing the space between her breasts. Her hands instinctively found their way to his thick hair, tangling themselves in the silky strands as his touch consumed her entirely. He moved further down kissing his way down to her navel but stopped just right above her pussy area. H
When they reached their room after dinner, his gaze fell on her. She was sitting on the stool in front of the mirror while trying to remove her earrings, but she was struggling. He walked closer to her and whispered, “May I?” She silently gave him permission. He gently swept her hair to one side and carefully removed her earrings. As he worked, his hands lingered on her shoulders and their eyes met in the mirror. A soft blush painted her cheeks. Her eyes, though tired, but sparkled with life. He softly made her stand while turning her to face him. Dipping his head, he kissed her lips tenderly. After a moment, he murmured, “In five years, I see myself kissing your soft lips every day.” He whispered against her lips, “You are so beautiful, Sia baby.” Then, he claimed her lips in another kiss which deeper and more consuming. As he kissed her, her entire body trembled with need for him. She wasn’t embarrassed by the way her body craved his touch, how every fiber of her being begged
The lovebirds were truly basking in each other’s company. Leon had planned a perfect evening, starting with a romantic sunset walk along the beach as their feet were sinking into the soft sand as the waves kissed the shore. Later, they moved to a cozy candlelit dinner he had arranged just for her. The gentle glow of the candles was reflecting in her eyes as he sat in front of her. “Leon,” Sia’s soft voice broke the serenity as she called his name. “Yes?” he responded, his gaze meeting hers with warmth. “Let’s play a game,” she suggested, her lips curving into a playful smile. “Okay, which game are we playing?” Leon asked, tilting his head with interest. “Let’s play twenty questions,” Sia proposed. Leon chuckled. “Quite cliché, but fine,” he agreed. Since the moment felt too magical to let slip into silence, the game seemed like a fun way to keep the mood alive. She pouted in mock offense but pressed on, “Are you a sunrise or sunset person?” “Definitely a sunrise person
“Sia?”“Hmm,” he murmured in reply, feeling his finger trailing along her shoulder. The rays of the sun bathed her body as they lay near the sea. They were on one of the private beaches in the Philippines, one of the most breathtaking places she had ever seen. For the past three days, they had been travelling. The first two days were filled with adventure, but today was a much-needed lazy day for both of them.“I think you need sunscreen,” Leon said, his voice low and teasing. “Hmm,” she replied, her eyes still closed. She felt him scooping sunscreen into his hands, the cool sensation was contrasting with the heat of his palms as he began smoothing it over her body. His touch lingered as he worked the lotion into her neck while gliding down her back, tracing every curve and dip with deliberate care. Then his hands moved lower, over her hips and along her legs. Just as she thought he was done, his hands reversed course and they have begun gliding upward with an unhurried sensuality. S
After a few days of silence, Charlotte was nowhere to be seen. Leon had been patient, giving her the space he thought she needed to handle whatever was going on in her life. But as weeks turned into a month with no sign of her, he had had enough. He grabbed his phone and called her. She picked up just as it was about to go to voicemail. Her tired face appeared on the screen. “What’s up, little brother?” she asked, her tone lacking its usual energy. “Charlotte Hart, where the hell are you?” Leon snapped. “Somewhere on Earth. Why? What happened?” she replied nonchalantly, though her eyes betrayed exhaustion. Leon’s frown deepened. “Do you know how frustrating you are? You told everyone you were painting, but this doesn’t look like your apartment, and you look like crap.” He paused, taking a closer look. Her hair was longer, browner, and wavy which was completely different from her usual style. His brows furrowed as something else caught his attention. “Wait a minute… are you
Sia smiled widely at Abella and gave her an encouraging pat on the back. “I like it, girl,” she said with genuine warmth. Abella lowered her head, her voice tinged with embarrassment. “I’m sorry. I just… I made the plan, but they ditched me because Cade was interested in me. And, well, Leslie has a crush on him too. You know… the usual college drama.” Sia tilted her head sympathetically but kept her tone light. “I’m glad you ended up spending the evening with me instead. Those people made you cry, and they don’t deserve your energy. You should let them know you don’t care about what they think. You have got people who care about you, and tonight, we are going to have a lot of fun! You are in college, and there is no curfew.” Abella muttered with a small pout, “I still can’t drink until I’m 21.” Sia laughed. “I will show you how to have fun without needing a drop of alcohol. Trust me, tonight is going to be unforgettable.” And it was. The two spent the evening laughing, tal
Sia had just wrapped up her work at the office when her phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, she raised a brow in surprise. Softening her tone, she answered, “Hello?” “Hi, Sia,” came Abella’s slightly nervous voice. “Are you busy?” Sia glanced at the clock, noting the upcoming meetings on her schedule. But she brushed them aside and replied warmly, “Not at all. Just finished my work.” “Cool!” Abella sounded a little more at ease. After a brief pause, she asked hesitantly, “Would you like to go shopping with me?” Sia blinked, momentarily caught off guard. Abella was usually reserved and rarely expressed her wishes so openly. The invitation felt like a rare and meaningful step. “Of course,” Sia said, her voice full of encouragement. “When do you want to go?” “Now?” Abella suggested tentatively. “Perfect,” Sia agreed. “Where are you? I will come pick you up.” “I’m at my dorm. Can you come here?” “Absolutely,” Sia assured her. With that, they ended the call. Sia turned to
After spending the entire night with Sia, Leon decided it was time to visit his parents, whom he hadn’t seen in two weeks. When he arrived, the house was lively as usual. Along with Nicholas and Anne, Rhys, Callum, Abella, and his grandparents, Ellora and Nikolai, were all gathered around the table. It was a joyous occasion for the family to be under the same roof. “Dad, can you take over for a month?” Leon asked, leaning against the doorframe. Well, if he had to be gone for over a month, he needed capable hands to look after his work. Who did he trust more than Nicholas Hart himself? Nicholas raised an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed. “Do I look stupid to you?” Why on earth would he want to return to that cold office building? He recalled the time when the kids were young and he would find all the opportunity to not go to work. He had waited a lot for his retirement. There was no way, he was going back to work! “It’s just a month,” Leon persisted, his tone almost pleading. Nich
“Leon?” Sia’s voice trembled with surprise and excitement as she spotted him standing at the door of her study. Without hesitation, she ran to him while wrapping her arms tightly around his waist. “You heartless man! You went on a business trip for a whole week! Did you even miss me?” “I’m sorry, Sia baby. I’m a bad man,” he murmured, pulling her closer and kissing her cheek. “I’m sorry. Next time, I’ will take you with me.” She pouted, muttering, “What would I even do there?” He smiled, his voice soft and affectionate. “Stay with me all day. Who cares what place or task it is, as long as we are together.” Her lips curled into a contented smile and she nodded, looking every bit like a satisfied child who had just been given her favorite treat. “I love you, Leon,” she whispered. The words were rare and reserved for moments that carried her true and raw emotions. He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. “I love you more, Sia baby.” Without another word, Leon scooped her i
