Killian froze when he heard a low whimper coming from Mayeli's room. He had been working in his study and was on his way to his room, but he paused when he reached her door.Killian contemplated whether he should go in, and when the crying increased, he turned and entered her room.Mayeli was sitting in the middle of her bed. Her feet were drawn up, and her face was buried in her knees. She was wiping softly, and her hair spread around her.Killian felt a wave of guilt wash through him. Why was she crying? Was it because of the therapy? Was she still angry at him for shouting at her that day? He heard she had locked herself up for days after that.He walked up to her bed, not knowing what to do next. If she were the reason she was angry, she'd most likely push him away, but he couldn't just stand there and watch her.Killian's eyes washed over her. She was wearing a black, short nightgown, and since her legs were lifted, a great deal of her fair, soft thighs were exposed. For a second
Jealous Killian breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his golden Rolex wristwatch. It was just 7:00 am, so he still had an hour before his meeting. He leaned back on Mayeli's room door to continue listening. Funny as it sounded, he was enjoying himself.“Mayeli, you can't know if he won't want you if you don't talk to him”, Shaila said to Mayeli.“Are you sure? I kinda hurt him pretty badly”, Mayeli said.“At least she knows she hurt me”, Killian said to himself.“It might take some effort, but I'm sure he'd understand and forgive you “, Shaila said.Killian smiled. Shaila was very thoughtful, infact he was beginning to like her. And she was right! It would take a lot of work on Mayeli's part for him to forgive her.She had hurt him, and it was time to watch her do her best to make up with him. It will be fun, Killian promised himself.Just then, he felt a tap on his shoulders. Killian screamed internally before he turned with a horrified expression to see who had caught him in hi
As you can see, there was no one in front of your room”, Damien said to Shaila.“I could swear there was someone”, Shaila replied.“But there's no one”, Mayeli said.“Fine, let's go”.“Thank you so much, Damien”, Mayeli said cheerfully.“You’re welcome, Mayeli”, Damien said slowly, his voice having a flirting edge to it.Killian balled his hands into a tight fist, so tight that his knuckles were white. Was Damien trying to be friendly with Mayeli? Oh dear, the man was ready to lose his job, and perhaps his balls along with it!Killian heard Mayeli and her sister's footsteps exiting the room. Slowly, he crawled out from under the table ready to devour his prey.Killian glared at Damien, who still had a longing expression as he stared after Mayeli.“Sorry, boss”, Damien mumbled with a confused expression, probably wondering what his crime was.Tyse crept out of the curtains and came to stand behind Killian.“We're late for the meeting, boss”, Tyse said, feigning innocence.Killian turne
Mayeli breathed heavily as she tossed her gown over her head. The taught for a moment of what Bria had said, but it made no sense.Biting on her lower lips, she let out a frustrated sigh. Mayeli decided to go to the kitchen, grab a bowl of popcorn, and perhaps watch a movie to clear her head. Mayeli sighed contently as she settled onto a brown couch on the second floor. She had chosen to stay there because it was rarely inhabited, and she would have her peace.She scanned through Netflix for a while, and decided to watch a movie titled “Dynasty”.Mayeli was halfway through the movie, and on her second bowl of popcorn when she heard light footsteps approaching.She turned to see Killian who froze as he saw her. His emotionless face slowly twisted to a slight frown as he stared quizzically at her.He was wearing black sweatpants and a white shirt. Mayeli could see the ink of his tattoos through the transparent white shirt that clung to his well-built chest.Some strands of his hair wer
There are a few things no man can resist. Want to know what they’re?” Shaila asked, observing Mayeli. They had just finished dinner and were in their room.Shaila was dressed in baby pink pyjamas, while Mayeli wore a yellow one. Shaila stood behind Mayeli, in front of their large mirror, carefully oiling and brushing her hair.“Yes”, Mayeli replied to her sister’s question with a puzzled look. What was Shaila planning this time?Shaila smiled mischievously. She held on to a portion of Mayeli’s thick blonde hair and brushed it until it shone, stealing for time.“What a woman desires most, is to feel loved, she always seeks that attention, and passion from day one. But men are creatures of sight. They never forget how they felt when they first saw you. Let’s use that as a weapon”.Mayeli turned to stare at her sister. “How?”“We have just two days left, let’s utilize it properly”.***Ummm, Mayeli tossed around her bed, her body sweaty, her sticking to her face, and her cheeks slightly
Mayeli felt her inside melting, and she couldn't hardly resist Killian anymore. Slowly, she wrapped her hands around his neck, entwining her fingers in his thick black hair as she leaned into the kiss.Killian freed her mouth for a few minutes, trailing kisses down her neck, before capturing her lips again.Mayeli moaned deeply. She had been starved of him for a long time. This man was driving her knots and she was helpless when it came to him. His intoxicating scent, strong body, knowing hands, her physical hunger, and her long months of celibacy got the best of her, and instead of protesting, Mayeli heard herself moaning his name over and over again.Killian slid his hand to Mayeli's waist, and with one swift movement, he raised her lingerie, baring her thighs.Squeezing her bum, Killian sucked sweetly on one of Mayeli's breasts, while his hands slid between her thighs, rubbing her lightly.“You're so wet for me, baby”, Killian whispered.Mayeli let out a pleasurable moan, and her w
Mayeli didn't see Killian for the rest of the day after he had walked out of the dining room halfway through breakfast, his eyes angry, his brows furrowed and his hands balled into a tight fist. She felt bad watching him leave that way.She didn't see him again until the next day at the gym on the second floor.She had begged the girls to go with her, but none had obliged, so she decided to go alone. The gym was empty when she walked in.Mayeli had just dropped her bottle of water in its place, and climbed the treadmill when Killian walked in.He was wearing black shorts and black shirt. He wore an ankle socks and Nike sneakers, exposing his well-built, hairy legs.Killian ran his gloved hands through his messy hair. He looked incredibly sexy.“I didn't didn't know you would here”, Killian said with a confused expression, watching Mayeli with careful eyes. Mayeli caught a glimpse of masked pain in them. She knew Killian too well, but at the moment, she didn't care.“I didn't know you
Mayeli pushed Killian away from her and quickly stood up from the floor. If she let him kiss her one more second, she would be falling under his spell. She needed to be sane at the moment.Well, she wasn't very quick in getting up as Killian blocked her path. “Please Mayeli, hear me out”.“I'm done talking to you”.“But I'm not done!”“I don't care!”Killian tries to hold her again, but she knees him in between his legs and walks past him. He doubled over in pain, but she didn't care.“Sei così violenta”, Killian cursed angrily as she banged his door shut.Breathing heavily, Mayeli looked around to be sure that nobody had overheard their loud bickering. When she didn't see anybody running towards her, Mayeli continued the journey to her room, thankful.Mayeli opened her room door, to see Shaila setting out a black bikini.Mayeli rolled her eyes. She wasn't in the mood for swimming right now, and she knew Shaila would not want to hear about it.“You're here! Where have you been all mor
Kreed laughed and stood up. He picked up the baseball bat he had been holding and threw it to Tyse.“Beat Killian to death with it, and I’d let you live. You did nothing to offend me, did you?”Mayeli’s eyes widened.“What?” Tyse asked.“You know it’s either you or him, right? Or mostly both. So why don’t you save yourself?”Mayeli thought of what to do to buy time. Of course, no one was coming to save them, since Kreed said he had taken care of the police, but she had no other option. She couldn’t watch what was about to happen. She’d rather die first.“Kreed, when did you become this evil? There’s still a way out of this, you don’t have to commit more murders.”Kreed laughed for a long time, and when he stopped, he faced Mayeli. “The day your father burnt down my family, he created an unrepentant monster. I only trained the monster. First I worked with the CIA, then with the FBI, then as a special intelligence security agent, and when I was convinced I had learnt everything I wanted
Mayeli and Killian turned to see Kreed standing a few feet from them. He was wearing the same outfit he had been wearing this morning before she had left him. Black turtle-neck top, black trousers, black boots and a dark brown long coat.But this time there was something different. He was wearing black gloves. But that wasn’t it. What was he doing here? How did he know she was here? She told no one.Kreed took a step forward, and Killian immediately reached for his pocket.Kreed was faster. “Let me borrow your words. I won’t dare if I were in your shoes because I’ll shoot you down without hesitation. Now rid yourself of your weapons and don’t try to play smart.”Killian did as he was told.Mayeli couldn’t believe her ears. This was Kreed, right? Or did he have a twin? Or perhaps was this a replica of him? Or cloning? She didn’t understand. Why was Kreed pointing a gun at them?“Kreed. What’s happening? I don’t understand.” But Mayeli was beginning to understand. She recognized the loo
“You should drive faster!” Killian barked at Tyse.“At this rate, we’d probably die in an accident before we get to her,” Truce screamed.Killian turned to him. “Do you deserve to live?”Truce shook his head. “No. Tyse, drive faster!”He was still mad at his friends for abandoning Mayeli when he was away for the stupid reasons they gave. He had trusted them to take care of her while he was away, but they had done just the opposite. They had begged and apologized severally, but he wasn’t forgiving them yet. He’d make them work for their forgiveness, and so far, they’ve been doing just that.“Maybe you should take the wheel!” Tyse barked at Truce. “I’ll drive faster, Killian,” he replied, Killian with a smile.“If that bitch, Shaila so much as touch my woman, I won’t hesitate to strangle her with my hands”, Killian said through his teeth.How could he have missed the signs?He had known Shaila wasn’t the sister she pretended to be, and he had known she was still obsessed, but he didn’t
“I don’t understand,” Mayeli said, carefully. Shaila was getting drunk, and Mayeli feared what she would do to her. At the moment, she wasn’t the woman Mayeli had known all her life, she was a wounded animal seeking blood.“I met Killian in our second grade. He was two levels higher than me, so we never really talked. Everyone loved him, everyone wanted him, and I wanted him more than any of them. And one day, I went home after school and he was with his parents in our house. Father had introduced them as his friends and ours, and had told us they were going to have dinner with us.I still remembered how overjoyed I had been that day. I had asked my maid, Nisha, to make me the prettiest little girl ever, and during dinner, I did everything to get Killian’s attention, but he didn’t care. He didn’t even notice my hair or dress or anything, but I didn’t give up. After dinner, he talked to me, he told me my dress was pretty and he liked my tiara. I was so overjoyed that I couldn’t sleep t
Mayeli typed Killian’s office floor number on the elevator keypad, 67.She could hardly wait as the box took her upwards. She hadn't met Killian since that day at the mall and she couldn't wait to see him. Her heart was racing already, and she could feel a hunger in her lower belly, a hunger he had awakened.The elevator stopped and the doors slid open. Mayeli stepped out eagerly, heading for the last building on the floor. When she reached, she rang Killian’s office doorbell. No one answered. She rang it again, but nothing. Thankfully, she knew the key pass.“I'm coming in,” she said, and pushed the door open. Surprisingly, the office was empty.The office was just the way Mayeli remembered, the same. White high walls, one glass wall showing off the breathtaking view of the City of London, a large oak table and a chair behind it and two in front. A mini-parlour of four black cushions and a white table, and lastly a glass shelf holding Killian's books, magazines, trophies, and aw
Mayeli braided the last strand of her sister’s hair slowly, listening to Bryelle’s tale of her latest BTS crush, Jungkook, and laughing. Her daughter was crushing on celebrities already.“I have a shoot with V soon, he might not be your favourite, but you should come,” Shaila said.Bryelle shook her head. “I want just him, no one else.”Shaila laughed. “Suit yourself.” She turned to Mayeli. “Be fast would braids, babe, I need to be somewhere soon.”Shaila had been going out more frequently recently, and she never said where she was going, no matter how many times Mayeli asked. Mayeli decided to let her be. She would come around when she wanted to.The doorbell rang, and Bryelle went to get it. She returned a few minutes later.“Mom, it’s Kreed.” She walked past them into her room. Shaila turned to Mayeli with a stupid smile on her face. “Your husband is calling.”Mayeli frowned, tossing her hair behind her. “His not my husband, stop with the joke.”Shaila laughed. “I have somewhere t
Killian covers the distance between him and Mayeli. She looked so flawless, so beauty more than he had remembered. Just a glimpse of her took his breath away, just a glimpse of her rose his hunger so intense that he hardly had control over it.He covered her slim waist with his arms and took in a breath of her.“Killian?” She called, her voice shocked. “Is this real? Am I hallucinating? How’s this even possible?”She started to check his body. “Are you real? Are you hurt or burnt?” Tears were already flowing down her pale cheeks again. “How’s this possible. Am I losing it?”Killian knew she had too many questions, but he couldn’t explain, not yet. He was here to warn her and he didn’t have much time.He turned her to face him and almost regretted it when his eyes fell on her fleshy, exposed, full and ready for him. He shook his head; just being near her drove him crazy, and it had been so long. He had watched from a distance and longed for her, but it wasn’t yet time. He had to think
“You should be careful,” Kreed said, helping Mayeli out of the car.Mayeli chuckled. “I’m careful as I am. You’re the unnecessarily worried one.”He had been fusing over her for months now since she got out of bed. She was fine now, but he won’t leave her. He was always by her side, and sometimes she wondered when he had time for himself.Bryelle came to Mayeli’s side. She pecked her. “I’ll see you later Mom, my friends are waiting.” She ran off before Mayeli could say a word.They were meant to eat dinner together after shopping for clothes, but she had come up with excuses that she had to meet up with her friends.“She’s growing up so fast,” Kreed said, laughing.Mayeli turned to him. Today was his girlfriend’s birthday, but he had been with her all day. “Aren’t you going to meet Sonia?”The smile faded from Kreed’s handsome face. “We met before I came by this morning.”Mayeli sighed. She knew Kreed had feelings for her, but she had no way to confront them. She wasn’t interested in
Mayeli slowly opened her heavy eyelids and tried to understand her environment. The smell of anthesptic filled her nostrils and her lungs burned. Her throbbed and her body felt as stiff as a log of wood.She tried turning, but her body had a mind of its own. The bright light streaming from the windows blinded her weak vision. She recognized the room after a while, it was her room, but why was she strapped to a bed, and why were there several equipment attached to her body?She couldn’t move or think; her whole body throbbed.The door opened and a familiar face walked in. She looked older, though. Mayeli tried to remember and slowly, her memory returned.Bryelle, her daughter.She tried to call her name, but her voice came out as a low whisper; even that effort was painful. Bryelle rushed to her side. She was wearing a short black skirt and a pink jacket. Her was packed in a high bun. She looked different, dazzling, and all grown up, not the little girl Mayeli had known.“Mom, you’re
