Susan's POV

I have never been to his home. The last time he offered to take me to his apartment, something came up and we just had lunch at a public place.

I'm seated in his car, directly beside him as he drives. I do not want to look at him because he has been giving me side glances since he swerved out of the public parking lot.

I try so hard to ignore the beautiful, definitely expensive interiors of his car and the soft music pouring out of the radio by looking out of the window into the busy night streets.

Up till now, I am still doubtful of everything. I have insecurity issues and that's because of my past. I haven't had the best relationships so far so this one with Achilles, even if it has been defined, makes me really doubtful and scared. I need to be reassured and I am not getting that from him.

I turn abruptly when I feel his hand close around both of my hands. That's when I realize that I've been peeling the skin around my cuticles.

"Why are you so anxious?" He asks. "

She swirls the drink in her hand and takes a sip.Susan is so beautiful, and I so much want to reassure her. Tell her not to be so worried about me not liking her. I can see it in her eyes now-that uncertainty.That was the same look I saw in her eyes when I ran after her. The same look in her eyes at the cafe. Though she hasn't told me her story, I have an idea that she might have had it tough.Her laugh brings me back to earth. "You're so funny.""Not at all, baby," I say, giving her a lazy look. My eyes travel down her dress. It's a short red dress with slits on both sides of her thighs, and I want to rip them apart, spread her legs and pleasure her. "I am nowhere near funny."There's an awkward silence from Susan, and I honestly find it funny. Susan being uncomfortable just makes it really easy. It'll be easy to get to her, and I love it. She's giving of

    The way he takes no mercy in thrusting his fingers into my honeypot is sweet and painful at the same time, but I love it.He eats me out with his tongue and I grab his hair, one minute wanting to push him away to stop, and the next shoving his face deeper into me for continuation."Karanos! St-"The words cease when I feel him withdraw. "Why the fuck did you stop?""You were going to say stop," he replies. "Anyways, I just wanted to be sure you're comfortable with me going hard because I, I love it rough.""Kal," I whisper, breathlessly. "Let's sit down and talk for a while."I straighten my dress, climb down from the kitchen counter, and lead the way back to the living room. I love how he obeys without complaining, even though I cut our sex-making session short."You said you wanted to talk," he sounds a bit frustrated. "Look, listen I'm sorry if I was going too hard. I can be gentler if you desire."I smile at him softly and say, "It's not that. I, uh, I-""What is it, Taleela? Just

But Achilles seems to have other plans.His fingers have been wandering in sensitive places and it's making me squirm with pleasure. My panties come off next and Achilles stares below my abdomen with desire swirling in his eyes. He looks utterly beautiful with that look in his eyes.We're on his bed and he gets down, pulling my thighs gently towards him so the tip of my toes is placed on the edge of his bed.Going on his knees, he parts my legs. "You're so wet for me, mama. I love having this much effect on you."I am so smitten by the way he's speaking to me in wonder like I am a piece of priceless art and when he slips his fingers into my core, I moan loud."You like it, huh?"I nod.

    Taleela's POVI take off his trousers and now all that's left of Kal's clothing is just his briefs. I let his cock hang loosely outside the briefs. I pick up the leather vampire paddle with the spikes on it beside the candle on the bed and dance with it seductively."Kal," I stretch out his name. "Flip over right now!"He eyes me curiously but obeys and now I can see his complete back view. His hands are still firmly bound behind his back with the handcuff. I push his hand a bit further up so they don't interfere with his ass. I peeled the brief down, but not completely, just down enough to expose his beautiful bare ass, which makes me smile sheepishly. Some men just have great butts and Karanos is one of such men. It's firm and so round. I slap him softly on the ass with the vampire paddle and he doesn't react."Good boy," I say to him. "I love men that can exhibit a high level of pain tolerance."I give a series of slaps with the vampire paddle, evenly distributing each whack across

    Taleela's POVI receive another call before going to bed. It's Susan."I don't think I'd be returning home tonight," She says. "Achilles seems to want me to stay over."I clear my throat suspiciously and a nervous laugh escapes her throat. "What's it?"I shrug."I have no idea. You tell me.""Or you tell me what went down between you and your Mr Hottie." Susan replies. Her tone is laced with amusement and curiosity."You should go back to Achilles before he begins to worry." I say, typically shooing my friend away."I'm in his room, actually and he's asleep. In his bathroom to be precise. I had to take a pee."I exclaim, finding it hard to believe that they had gotten so close really fast. "Christ! So you guys had sex?" I am so curious, forgetting how I had refused to tell Susan about my sex-capade with Kal. She would be so shocked if I dared to tell her."We just stared at each other the whole time." Susan replies and my eyes widen."You better get your ass home so you can give me dee

She's watching me with her elbow on the bed to support her head. She looks so beautiful this morning and I want more of her, noticing my morning hard on. A slow smile forms my lips. "Watching me sleep, huh?" I say. I pull her by the waist, reveling in the softness of her skin. "Let's sleep more, love. I don't think I'd want to go to the office when I have a whole snack chilling in my bed." Susan's eyes widens and she laughs out loud as her body comes in contact with mine. "I have classes today!" She says quickly and tries to move away from me but my grip around her is firm. Slowly, my fingers travel from the curve of her hip to the side of her belly. Susan tenses and shuts her eyes momentarily. I can get her to miss classes today. "Why don't you take a break today? You look like you have read so much and your b

    Susan's POV Tarantino is a beautiful man. Tall, lithe, and lanky with the graces of a model. His smile is like a light on my path, totally contagious and beautiful. What they call a million-dollar smile. Though Achilles is buffier, they share a few traits. The hair, eyes, and sharp jaw. Tarantino is taller and quite the bold one. Once he is free from his elder brother's hold, he rubs at his throat while coughing and glaring at Achilles who has gone back to preparing breakfast for us both. Their relationship, from what I had seen moments ago, is a cordial one. As Tarantino slides into the stool beside mine, he gives me a slow smile, his eyes twinkling.

    Taleela's POV My heart lurches as soon as Susan's gaze lands on the cuffs laying carelessly inside the last drawer compartment. I blame myself for my carelessness for not putting them in order. Now, Susan has seen it and is going berserk. I prepare myself for extremely weird questions. " I am so jealous!" Susan cried. "I wish I had a thing for sadomasochism." Frowning, I crawl to the open drawer and push it to shut before sliding my feet forward and leaning back against my dresser. "Jealous, why?" "People who practice BDSM are unique and seem to have gotten to another level of pleasure," Susan explains. "For someone like you who hates being controlled by anyone and loves being controlled, all you need is a partner who you can submit to and dominate at the same time. Crazy fun in my books." I shake my head like I am the least interested in what she's saying. I don't find it comfortable talking about my sexual fantasies with a lot of people. And no, it's not because of the judgemen

Frowning, I walk toward where he's standing and help him to button his shirt up."Why are you suddenly shaky?" I ask.Achilles shakes his head, and a lock of his hair falls on his forehead. I push his hair back to its normal position and kiss his lip before leaning back to look at my beautiful husband.He's dressed in a dark shirt, and slacks cling to his long powerful legs. It's not tucked in. Just the way I like it. Patting his chest, I kiss him again."You're nervous, babe," I say to him. "I can see that you are."Achilles sighs and picks up his perfume bottle from the vanity table behind me. "Yes, I am. What if your mother threatens me and decides to send me off without you? What if she dislikes me? What if—"But I place a hand on his lip to shut him up. "Shh. It's okay, Achilles. My mother isn't going to do anything funny. Yes, she might be strict and all that.

    Jemmah's POVThree days later.Greece.I don't know why Karanos wants us to drive to his parent's home. I already told him I'm feeling quite sick, but he's bent on doing what he wants."Can we stop by the hospital before seeing your parents, babe?" I ask as we almost get to the city clinic.The flight we took last night messed with my rhythm, making me highly uncomfortable.Karanos sighs and finally agrees. As he turns at the intersection, he says, "Baby, we all know it's your pregnancy and nothing else. We even got a book to guide us through your trimesters. Isn't that enough? My mum doesn't like latecomers,"I frown at him. "Mummy's boy?"I notice Kal's jaw shift. I know he's trying to react calmly to what I just said. Since my pregnancy, he has been considerate, and I find it weird."Babe, you know that's not true. I love my mother, but I don't suck up to her,""But you sure look like you're doing so!"

I had never really given having a baby thought, and I was pretty disoriented when the doctor told me I was pregnant.Karanos was in the country for a three-month vacation and a company merger. So, he was running around and setting things up while I relaxed. He didn't want me stressed out.I told him a week later while we were on a date. I knew it wasn't the perfect timing, and I hadn't crested one, so I thought informing him on a date would spice things up since he was in a happy mood.Well, it spiced things up. Kal leaped to his feet and kicked his chair back as he walked towards my seat. He lifted me and twirled me around. He was thrilled, but I wasn't quite sure I was.Okay, here's the thing.I was just so confused about the pregnancy thing, and I wanted to burst into tears, but Kal

I hope he listens to me because I am extraordinarily drunk and about to pass out."Jemmah," His voice comes. Soft and filled with so much worry."Kal," I say, and my voice breaks. "Kal, photos of me in the strip club back in Greece got released on the internet," Then I begin to sob."Jemmah, I need you to stay calm for me, okay?" He says. "I'll be at your apartment in less than an hour,""But you're in Greece," I choke back tears. "How will you get here in less than an hour?""Don't worry, my love. I'll be there in no time.

Even discussions about the deal being called off.How the hell did these people know about all this? Did Karanos tell them in a press conference or something?Shaking my head, I know that Karanos is not that type of person. He's primarily private, apart from the unfortunate pictures taken by the paparazzi and some ladies that want to leech off him.I lean away from the back seat and tap my driver's shoulder. He turns for a bit. We're almost at the intersection, so I must tell him quickly."Can you take the longer route? We're going to enter my apartment from the back," I say. "The paparazzi will be waiting for me,""Okay, ma'am."

I feel so frustrated and aggravated at myself.But Jemmah doesn't even give me listening ears. She hikes her tote bag higher and continues to drive her luggage toward the door. Pulling the door with all her might, she steps out and nearly swings it shut in my face, but I am quick to hold the gate and follow her outside.She already booked a ride about an hour ago, and the driver is already here with his car purring.

Looking out of our window momentarily, I see that it's still midnight. Looking back at Karanos lying on the bed, I notice he's sweating a lot, even under the air conditioning.He's having a nightmare.So I move close enough till my skin touches his, and I gather him in my arms. As soon as he feels me close, his arms wrap around me, and he buries his head in my chest.He keeps talking and even starts to sob, making me confused. Why is he having nightmares? What did he experience in the past?But I don't ask him all that. I am more concerned about his well-being, so I wrap my legs around his lean waist, placing my chin on his head while I rock him comfortingly."You'll be fine, baby. You'll be fine," I say in my most quiet voice. "It's just a dream, and you'll wake up soon. I love you so much, Ka
