“Go, Timothy!” Aria jammed her foam finger in the air, disregarding the box of popcorn that fell from her lap. Lucas was stretching his neck, trying to get a good view of the action despite the people standing in front of us. “I still have no idea what’s going on,” he admitted aloud, looking to me
He turned toward me, his hazel eyes bright with a mixture of exhaustion and exhilaration. "Evie!" he greeted, his voice warm and genuine. As he neared, his broad shoulders seemed to fill the space between us. "I can't believe you came to watch," he added, his tone laced with appreciation. "Of cours
Timothy: I didn’t mean to scare you off...I glanced at the texts briefly before dismissing them, my cheeks tinged with a subtle shade of pink. Despite the warmth of my face, I focused my attention back on my work, determined to bury the awkwardness of our encounter. As I typed, the emails began to
My fists clenched, and I took a step closer to him, my voice dripping with venom. "You have no idea what it takes to succeed, Jasper. I've suffered my share of sleepless nights to get where I am. And if you think for a second that I got here by compromising my integrity, you're sorely mistaken." He
Stepping into Mr. Erickson's office felt like entering the lion's den. The dim lighting cast an air of formality over the space, and I couldn't help but feel a twinge of apprehension as I closed the door behind me. Mr. Erickson, with his imposing presence and air of authority, was seated behind his
A bitter taste of disillusionment settled in my mouth. How many more people were going to take advantage of me? How many more obstacles would I have to overcome to truly be recognized for my skills and dedication? As my fingers absently tapped on the keyboard, I couldn't help but think of Timothy.
I returned his smile, the corners of my lips curling up in response. "Just heading home," I said. I suppose I should’ve recognized his car from last time, but that was also when he’d been stabbed by Bruce, so my senses weren’t exactly attentive. Timothy frowned. "Walking alone in the city at this h
Finally, Timothy cleared his throat, his voice breaking through the stillness. "So, how was work today? Assuming that’s why you’re dressed so formally." I shifted in my seat, my heart rate quickening as I turned to face him. "Oh, you know, the usual," I replied with a carefully subtle smile, my att
"Plenty of space here,” he started. “I figured…we could easily convert this into a nursery someday." My heart skipped a beat at his words, the mere suggestion sending a wave of emotions crashing over me. A nursery—our nursery. The thought of starting a family with Timothy filled me with a sense of
As Timothy led me through the threshold, his hands cupping my eyes gently, I couldn't help but feel a flutter of excitement in my chest. This was it—the moment we had been waiting for. Our new beginning, our haven. Duke trotted alongside us, his tail wagging in anticipation. I could sense the air th
The flight back home felt like a whirlwind, the memories of our honeymoon paradise fading into the background as the reality of returning to our everyday lives set in. But as the plane touched down and we made our way through the bustling airport, a knot of anxiety tightened in my chest at the thoug
"Welcome, welcome!" she exclaimed, her voice as sweet as honey. "Would you like to try some of our local fruits?" We nodded eagerly, and she began slicing pieces of fruit with practiced ease, offering them to us on skewers. I reached for a slice of mango, its flesh ripe and juicy beneath my finger
As the plane descended toward the island, my heart fluttered with excitement. The anticipation bubbled within me as the tropical paradise came into view, its crystal-clear waters shimmering like liquid sapphires beneath the golden sun. We stepped off the plane into paradise, the air heavy with the
When it finally came time to, he entered me, and my teeth clenched as I stretched around his erection. I gasped as he began to move inside me, each thrust slow and deep. The pleasure intensified until at last I was teetering on the edge of oblivion. I clung to him desperately, my nails digging into
As the festivities of our wedding night drew to a close, Timothy and I found ourselves heading up to the honeymoon suite, drunk on love and excitement. The air crackled with anticipation as we stumbled through the door, our laughter echoing off the walls. The soft glow of candlelight cast ethereal
The lights dimmed and the room fell silent. On the large screen at the front of the room, images of Timothy and his mother, Lydia, began to flash by, accompanied by gentle music that tugged at the heartstrings. I watched as Timothy's tearful gaze locked onto the screen, his eyes filled with a mixt
As I stood at the altar, my heart pounding with nervous anticipation, I could feel the weight of the moment bearing down on me like a heavy cloak. But as Timothy approached, his eyes shining with love and adoration, the world around me seemed to fall away, leaving only the two of us in its wake. W
