Theodore

Kim must be stunned, Theodore thought as he hung up the phone after inviting Kim for dinner at his place.

He had tried to drown himself in work for the past week and so, and everytime he tried to discover in his heart what he wanted, the answer was always the same. It both terrified and excited Theodore. He was throwing his image away.

Until now, he was the youngest, responsible, sensible, hard-working son of his father. This marriage was going to put him on the same pedestal as Jonathan, but now, he was not sure what he wanted to do.

Theodore knew nothing about cooking. He had a housekeeper who took care of everything. So, when he was putting the dish on table and Kim walked in on that scene, witnessing him in an apron must have given her a wrong idea.

“Did you cook for me?” She was smiling and Theo was feeling like a jerk for what was about to come.

“Oh, where is Olga?”

“I gave her night off.” Theo removed

    Theodore He was punching the bag as hard as he could but his anger was not assuaging at all. She hates me. She hates me. She hates me. These were the only thoughts in his mind.

I am bringing Chinese.” He spoke, and Natalie asked. “Will you feed me?”Theodore smiled. “Of course, I will.”Natalie was smiling as she hung up. Theo was the most supportive man she had seen.

He always liked her breasts and when he sucked on them after so long, Natalie came violently. She couldn’t help it. She was hot all over and he was not helping her at all, by kissing her breasts and fucking her with his finger at the same time.“Please fuck me, Theo. Please. I need you.”She almost sobbed and Theo obliged.She saw him with hooded eyes as he carefully ran the head of his cock against her wet pussy lips. Their eyes met, and he pushed himself inside her warm channel. She felt full to the brim as his large cock invaded her pussy.“Ahhhh……” She moaned and closed her eyes.Her hands reached for his and their fingers entwined.“It feels good, Theo. It feels so good.” She opened her eyes and he bent over her to kiss her.He started moving inside her and Natalie couldn’t help but moan as his cock’s girth rubbed on her pussy walls, making her squeez

    TheodoreThe place was dark. He had not turned on any lights. The only lights he could see was at the LA’s skyline and the sparkling stars in the sky.He sipped the whiskey and let it burn.He was drinking since the moment he had dropped Natalie back at her place. It had taken him great self-control to just sit in the car and not walk her to the door. To not ask her to let him enter and push her against the next wall. To not take her lips in his and kiss the hell out of her, kiss her so bad that her mind will remember only one name and that’s Theo. To not tell her that the wait was killing him and he couldn’t bear it anymore. To not tell her how much he loved her.Theo had controlled. He had come here, because the last night he had spent here with her was all he had.He had come here with the hope that her scent must be lingering. But it was gone. The place was cleaned.The time spent with her today had been pure torture. He had to act like a stranger to her. His fingers were twitchin

After all, she was also dreaming of her son’s wedding for years.“So, how long do you know Theodore?” His mother asked.Natalie thought about it and then answered truthfully. “A few months.”“And what do you think about him?”The question wasn’t unexpected. After hearing her thoughts at the lunch, Natalie had figured out that his mother wanted them to be an item.“I don’t think I know him enough to form an opinion. You know him much better than I do, I guess. What do you say? Is the guy worth one risking the heart?”It was a bold question and made Shane’s mother smile. “I know him s

    TheodoreNatalie was looking breathtaking as always. Although, she was pale and skinny, and he wanted to know why.But he guessed that it was not his place to ask her personal questions. He didn’t say much about the twinning comment too.The ride to Shane’s place was an emotional roller-coaster for him. There had been many rides in the past with Natalie, but this time, he couldn’t hold her hand. He couldn’t tell her that he wanted to kiss her beautiful lips, he wanted to let her know that she looked elegant in that attire, and that he was losing control.Shane was warm as always. He came from a modest family. He had lost his father to a cardiac arrest a few years back. It was just his mother now. His elder brother lived in Connecticut with his family.Shane and Theodore had been attracted towards each other in college due to the fact that Theodore was reserved.

    NatalieShe hung up and came back to the table where William looked at her with raised brows over his glass of wine.“What’s the matter?”Natalie was red with anger. “That friend of yours. Guess where he is?”“Where?” William asked.“Control. That gentleman is raiding the corridors of Control when I am nervous here. When I am thinking that I wronged the man I love, he is fucking other women there.”“How do you know that’s what he is doing?”Natalie huffed at the question. “What else he must be doing?”She was angry. So much angry and she had no idea why she was feeling that way. She didn’t want to cry but they threatened her eyes. How could he? Has he moved on? Does he not love her anymore? The idea of him touching other women was repulsive and made Natalie anxious. She couldn’t take it. The jealousy was flowing through her blood right now. She blew air through her mouth and asked William, “Did I push him too far, Will? Does he not love me anymore?”“Oh, my fucking God, Nat. Are yo

    TheodoreIt was a Friday night and Theodore had nothing better to do. He gulped down the bitter cognac and looked around but Lionel wasn’t anywhere.In the past few months, Theodore had not visited “Control” at all. First, he loved Natalie and there were no women here now who could interest him.After the first few days after Jacobs, Theo had a faint hope in his heart that Natalie will call him. She will come to see him. But until now, she had not even tried to establish any contact with him. He had tried his best not to come across her. Because if she didn’t want to see him, he will not bother her.It was hard getting over her. For him, she was the only one. Her beautiful smile was the first thing he still saw when he woke up. He had a beautiful picture of hers framed and set on his bedside.Now, he was all alone, and was wondering if she will ever come to him.But then it happened. His phone buzzed. He pulled it out and his heart skipped a beat.It was her. She was calling him. Afte

    NatalieIt had been a month since Natalie was working at “We Do” and she had realized that she was better as an intern than the CEO. There were a lot many things that she had to manage now and she was trying to juggle like an expert.Right now, she was in the meeting because no matter what they did, the revenues were stubborn and stuck at the bottom.“The number of orders is still at a very low point. What are we supposed to do to increase them? Our existing strategies aren’t working.”Natalie was chewing the tail of the pencil, then she recalled how she had come to know about Keira.She spoke out of the blue. “All we need is one celebrity wedding.”Everyone was silent and looked at her. She looked at the expectant faces and elaborated. “Keira gained fame overnight after she bagged Nora Thorne’s wedding contract. All we need is that one person who is a celebrity and set to marry this year. Since our LA is bustling with celebrities, we need to bag just one person from the Stripe and I
