ProserpinaWhen I woke up to the familiar need to throw up, I was feeling drained. Leaning against the bathroom wall, I sighed. My life was unravelling and I had not contacted my colleagues at the Buddhist Centre all week. The blog remained un-updated too and I sighed, the tears trickling down my cheeks.Worse, I missed the feel of Lucien in the bed beside me; his warm, reassuring presence, the way he would take me in the morning, rolling over on top of me even as I came out of the throes of sleep, the exquisite feel of his stubble against my body, his shaft urgently digging into me before plunging inside …Yes, I missed it all.But I was damned if I was going to mope. I had to be strong, had to fight.*Splashing water on my face, I determined to look my best today; Lucien was going to bring his ‘son’ and his former playmate here this evening for dinner; a terse message had arrived on my phone to that effect. Well, I was going to be prepared for it, I thought, thrusting out my chin.I
ProserpinaI was more than a little surprised when Melissa turned up in the afternoon, bringing along with her, a hairstylist and a beautician.“What?’ I gaped at her in alarm.‘You are beautiful as you are,’ she said smartly, hands on hips like she was addressing one of her first graders, and then wagging her forefinger at me severely, she went on,’But right now, I think you need to look your Best. Which is not true as of now. You need to look at your hair. It’s a mess.’ I shrank. It was true. I had not been sleeping or eating well. My long brown tresses looked dry and brittle. I sighed and turned away but she grabbed my arm.“Look, you dish up the best food in the world and you are an amazing Mom. But you need to take care of your body, your looks, too.’I nodded slowly.So the next two hours of the afternoon went by in giving me a manicure and the works. I dozed off as the beautician worked on me, massaging my body with her deft hands. When I came awake, I felt rejuvenated, my bo
ProserpinaThe sound of Lucien roaring at someone in the corridor alerted us to his arrival and I tensed. But Schwartz held my arms, gently stroking them with his thumbs and I knew what he was trying to say; stay calm.Our eyes were on the door as my husband strode in. His eyes, grey like cold steel, narrowed as they rested on me and I saw his jaw tighten. But it was the woman who traipsed behind him who caught my attention.Britney. With the startlingly blonde hair that came from the mixture of chemicals in a bottle, she looked hard-faced and unpleasant, her lips thinning as she looked at me.Once she had been one of my husband’s favourite wh*res, I thought grimlyHer clothes were inappropriate, to say the least. A fire engine red outfit with a sweetheart neckline and a built-in push-up bra with padded cups that made her breasts thrust out in an awkward way. The asymmetric high-low hem with visible boning details that add silhouette-defining structure and adjustable self-ties spaghet
LucienHe could not take his eyes off his woman. She…what had she done to herself? She looked so young, so beautiful, so fuc*ingly gorgeous and inviting, he could feel his manhood harden. The purple dress she was wearing hugged her full breasts and he was sure he could make out her hard nipples under the cloth.Damn, he thought, She was not wearing a f*cking bra under that!She looked so f*cking delicious, it was all he could do to stop himself from striding across and grabbing her, dragging her away to the broom closet and taking her savagely latching his greedy mouth on those thick nipples.Lucien fought the need to take her in his arms and kiss her, hold her, smell her fragrance, tell her how much he loved her and apologise for hurting her. And thrust himself, balls deep into her wetness, pound into her swollen wet pussy and claim her as his.…*But he did nothing.She stood, almost in the circle of Schwartz’s arms and he felt the familiar jealousy course through him.“What the f*c

LucienThe Mafia Don had had enough. Roughly pushing away the woman who was trying to cling to him, he ignored her furious exclamation as he crossed to his wife who stood, her cheeks flaming, eyes glittering in humiliation, shoulders heaving with the effort of staying calm.He knew she was too much of a lady to descend to the levels of a gutter snipe wh*re like Britney but he would not stand by and listen to anyone insult her.*Facing Britney, his eyes gleaming with rage, he bit out in a hard, cold voice,‘I should not have allowed you into my house. You pollute everything with your disgusting presence, Britney. But I had forgotten, a dirty wh*re from the gutter can only talk and behave like one.’He pulled his wife’s resisting body to his and went on, in a low snarl,“My wife is too fine, too good a woman to tell you to get out of her house but I will not have scum like you insult her. So shut the f*ck up or I will have the men throw you out like I had you thrown out of my room last
LucienThe silence that followed her announcement would have been comical but for the tension emanating from her husband, who gripped her, his hard hands tightening around her upper arms till she let out an involuntary whimper.‘Woman?’ he growled thickly, his voice urgent and pleading, disbelief etched on the craggy features,“You joking?’She shook her head, her curls tumbling around her face as she half laughed and half cried before burying her face in his chest, as she whispered,“Lucien, I wanted to tell you…but… I was scared…I am so sorry.’A brief pause and then, he roared and shook her,“The FU*K are you saying, woman?’ he bellowed fiercely and she looked at him, her brown eyes wide in alarm, as he thundered and clasped her to him as though he would never let her go,“DON’T YOU EVER SAY YOU ARE SORRY ABOUT CARRYING A CHILD OF MINE! DAMN IT!”Then he was bending his head and plundering her mouth, kissing her till she pushed at his chest, breathless, laughing, the tears rolling
It was Proserpina who remembered that Cole and Britney had not joined them. Scrambling off Lucien’s lap , evading his restraining arms, she turned to him and said softly, her expression grave,‘No, Lucien. They… Cole and Britney…they need to join us too for dinner …’Her face was serious, eyes pleading.Lucien grunted and nodded to Philippe who was hovering near the door, watching, waiting for his Boss’ orders.*Proserpina seemed undecided but she turned to the door even as Tara let out a squeal of joy.‘Look, Mumma, Lisa is here!’Proserpina stopped, dimpling in happiness as Melissa Lord entered, wearing a denim green ruched high-low midi dress! The stretchy jersey knit fabric formed a crew neckline and short sleeves with rolled sewn cuffs added to the classy effect A blousy, wide-cut bodice atop an elasticized banded waist continued to a figure-hugging skirt with two drawstrings that created a flirty ruched effect before ending at a high-low hem. She looked as stylish as ever and h
