I'm so sorry for the delay.
**LIA** "Wait, Lia, are you serious?" Lena inquired, her eyes wide with disbelief, while my mother regarded me curiously, concern etched across her face. I nodded, taking a deep breath. "Yes, I've given it a lot of thought. Angel deserves to know both her parents. Drex and I have discussed this, and we've come to an agreement. I'm doing this for my daughter." I moved closer to my mother, taking her hand and placing it on my lap while holding it firmly. Her expression was filled with worry. "Darling, don't worry. I'll support any decision you make," my mother reassured me, her touch tender as she held my face in her palm. She looked at me with love, then wrapped her arms around me, pulling me close. Lena, observing our exchange with a smile, decided to break the silence. "So when is the wedding?" she asked cheerfully. "Selena!" My mother scolded her, clearly thinking that she should be more sensitive to the gravity of the situation. I, however, responded, "Mum, it's fine. I'm real
**LIA** When we arrived at the hotel, we approached the receptionist to explain that we had a reservation for the VIP honeymoon suite. Upon entering the hotel room, I couldn't help but marvel at the opulence. It was the VIP honeymoon suite, after all, and the size was breathtaking. The room was like my entire apartment condensed into one space, and I was immediately drawn to explore every corner. The room featured a spacious sitting area with a large TV mounted on the wall. Behind the couch, there was another room, separated by glass sliding doors. The bed was enormous, and I was further impressed when I ventured into the bathroom. It was so vast that you could practically sleep in it. As I excitedly explored every nook and cranny, I occasionally glanced at Drex. He was already lounging on the couch, engrossed in his phone. My mood soured slightly as I observed his relaxed demeanor. I couldn't help but wonder whom he was texting and why he appeared so content. A surge of frustratio
**LIA** After a long and torturous night, the next morning brought a new determination. I decided to make the most of my day and head to the beach for some relaxation and fun. I took a long, hot shower, washing away the discomfort of the previous night. Then, I set my sights on preparing for a day at the beach. I selected a black bikini and tied a white scarf around my waist, completing the look with a white net top that offered a tantalizing glimpse of what was beneath. I quickly bundled my hair into a messy bun and was ready to embrace the day. As I gathered my beach essentials and stood by the door, there was a knock that interrupted my thoughts. "You." I glared at the figure on the other side of the door. My frown quickly faded when I realized Drex had arrived, shirtless, in his black jeans. I allowed him to enter as he brushed past me. "Why are you here? I thought you were off enjoying your honeymoon with your 'little miss perfect,'" I quipped, crossing my arms over my chest.
**LIA** Having claimed my spot on the beach, I spread out my blanket, dropped my oversized bag filled with beach essentials, and removed the scarf around my waist and the net top. I let my hair cascade freely and packed away the extras. Sunscreen in hand, I lay on my back, sunglasses shielding my eyes. I began rubbing the lotion onto my arms when I heard a masculine voice break through my tranquility. "Hey, need help with that?" The voice belonged to a very handsome man. He had blond hair and hazel eyes, a combination that left me momentarily stunned. Why does he look so familiar? Without missing a beat, I raised my sunglasses and tucked them into my hair. This was too good an opportunity to pass up. "Very much yes!" I replied with a touch of excitement. He chuckled, and dimples formed on his face. My insides squealed with delight. He knelt beside me and arranged me to lie on my stomach, ready to apply the lotion for me. "Remember me?" he asked as he squeezed out a bit of lotion
**LIA** Drex had suddenly appeared on the beach, holding Jesse by her waist. The situation was less than ideal, and I hoped to avoid this drama, especially not this early in the day. "It's none of your business," I replied firmly and stood up, and Jasper followed suit. Jesse seemed taken aback and infuriated simultaneously. "Just making sure you don't get kidnapped on my watch. You do know we have to return back home together, although I'd love not to take you back with me," Drex commented, a cocky smile on his face. "Well, I am Jasper," Jasper introduced himself by raising his hand for Drex to shake. However, Drex just shrugged it off, resulting in a bemused smile from Jasper. A heated staring contest began between the two men, and the tension was palpable. "Drex, for once, I'd like to be free from you for a whole day, please," I implored, hoping they would leave. But they remained rooted to the spot. "Come on, Jasper. Let's go somewhere without parasites," I suggested. "Baby,
**LIA** We had the TV on, while eating and chilling with our pizza and beer, which was the best combo by the way. We argued a bit before agreeing on what to watch. Which was by the way Miraculous, who’d argue on that. After laughing a lot at the show, which was mostly done by me, I glanced towards him, he was so focused on the cartoon so much that I doubt he’d notice me staring. Why does he have to be a jerk and still look so good? “Hungry?” he asked taking a slip of his beer, then squeezing the can signifying he was done with it. Hungry? What does he mean? I’m not hungry I just ate. He then turn to face me. “Lost now aren’t we? He asked chuckling. Is he already drunk? I mean, it’s only two cans. How weak is he? “What? I am not. Good night.” I said then stood up, was about making my way to the bedroom when my hand was grabbed and I was pulled back, and before I knew it I had landed on his lap sideways, I had to hold his neck for support, so I used one of my hand to. A bit of my
**LIA** Why do I feel so good right now? Why do I feel so warm? Did I leave the heater on? So many questions popping up at the good feels I was getting. Suddenly my eyes shot opened in realization. “We did the deed.” I whisper and then used my free hand to hush myself, apparently I was being cuddled by Drex so firm. Why am I feeling happy about this though? The silence was then interrupted by the ringing of Drex’s phone on the dressing table beside the side at his side. The movement of his body and the removal of his arms around me signified that he was awake, because I was backing him I wasn’t sure until I heard his voice. “Hello” his deep voice echoes. He sounded oddly calm, so I decided to turn around to see what’s up. Immediately he saw my face it was like realization just hit him in the balls, he just couldn’t scream because he was on the phone. “Face time? ...yeah…sure” it was like he was trying to compose himself, he cleared his throat and the puts his arm around my should
**LIA** After my refreshing shower, I opted for a comfortable travel outfit. I donned a pair of grey cargo pants and a black crop hoodie, ideal for the impending flight. I secured my hair into a ponytail, with plans to release it later. Tying it up initially saved me from the trouble of constantly managing it. As I looked around the room, I couldn't help but notice the mild disarray. Even though room service would eventually tidy it up, my compulsive nature got the best of me. I embarked on an impromptu room-cleaning session after I packed my travel bag and placed it beside Drex's. My curiosity about Drex's whereabouts nagged at me. It was unusual for him to be away for so long, and even though I was savoring the peace, a sense of unease gnawed at me. Upon completing my impromptu cleaning duties, I decided I deserved a pat on the back for making the room presentable again. With a satisfied smile, I left the room to head to the hotel's dining hall for a much-needed meal. My choice was
**JASPER**Just coming back from a stroll, when I witnessed Jessica having the door slammed shut on her face. I was going to ignore it and climb upstairs to my apartment, because I had no business with her anymore,but just then she turns around and sighted me. "Jasper?" She called and sniffed. I then look at her direction, she was in tears, I couldn't just leave her like that so I ended up taking her to my apartment. "Want some coffee?" I offered. "Yes please,"she answers and cleans her tears. "Alright," I clicked my tongue and went into the kitchen, made the coffee and brought it for her. Her eyes already puffy and red from crying. "Thanks," she managed to say and collects the coffee from me. Then I sat next to her, we hadn't really been close like this since her birthday, she told me she was ready to end her relationship with Drex for me. We were childhood friends and then became best friends and the year I told her I was in love with her was when she also told me she was
**LIA**He made his first movement very slowly inside me and I moaned at the contact. Making me forget what had interrupted us before. "Hmmm...who-hmmhmm," I suddenly could not make a sentence anymore, I was a moaning mess, and all because of just his fingers."Baby girl, let's-us-just-ignore-it, who's-ever-at-the-door-would-go-away," Drex said all those words each, planting a kiss on my neck,still fingering me slowly, touching every area needed in the walls of my opening. "Hmmhmm," I couldn't even voice out a yes, but I guess he understood. Just when we thought the person was gone because we didn't hear the doorbell anymore, the person decided to knock this time, and not even once, continuously. I guess the person really needs us. "Hmmhmm...D-hmmmm," Yeah I still couldn't make up a sentence. But then it was like Drex understood once again. This time Drex began moving faster with his finger, like he wanted us to finish up quick I guess, but then I was still enjoying it all too mu
**LIA**The movie, started off all nice and romantic and suddenly heated scenes starts to show and I was suddenly feeling hot, I didn't know the movie would show all these. I guess that's why the name is hence 'Burning desires,' I turn to my side only to find Drex already staring at me. "Yes...hmm," the female lead began moaning. Not the right time for this TV."Harder baby!" She yells. This is so embarrassing. Drex didn't say anything but instead I could see his eyes get darker with desire and I didn't even realize how dry my throat was, I swallowed and then took my lower lip in my mouth biting it in the process. "I want all of you," the male lead spoke while you could hear the moaning sounds in the background. It was as if that was what Drex was waiting on, before I realized what was going on, Drex, in a swift motion charges towards me and took my lips making the both of us land on the bed, I was now laying on my back while he was hovering above me. His lips were warm and soft
**LIA**After mentally groaning to the interuption of my comfortability, who had the audacity to interrupt me time. I thought I should be home alone by now right? I mean it's either they went to his room or went out to, so why is there a knock at my door? I got up from my bed and opened the door. It was Drex. What was he doing here? I thought he had to hang out with Jessica now or something. "Drex?" I called his name in question. "What are you doing here? And where is Jessica?" I asked, peeping out of my door trying to seek her out. "Mind if I join you?" He asked surveying my room, trying not to make eye contact. Join me? in my room? "What-what about Jessica?" I had to ask again. "I um sent her away..." He said, his hand finding it's way to the back of his neck. "Are you guys okay?" I had to ask. Because just four days ago the two of them couldn't get enough of themselves. I mean Drex forgot his child because of her. "Yeah...can we not-" he said.Oh, I didn't mean to pry."Ye
**LIA**As promised, Drex did his part as a dad to Angel, he'd help me feed her while I get ready for school, he makes sure she's tucked in before I get back home maybe when I have a late night class that day or I meet them playing if i get home early. He picks her up from school and helped me with most of the things that involved taking care of her. She was so used to her dad tucking her in that if he doesn't she makes a huge fuss.He made it so easy for me with school and all, I start to pity him, he's probably trying to make up for what he did. I didn't really feel being a mother much, because of his help. Weekend came by so fast, we decided to take Angel to her grandparents house, by that I meant his family. His sister also came visiting to his parents house and by visiting,I mean stay a while with them, With her twin boys who were about 3-4 years old and her husband. I'd only seen her once before and that was on my wedding day. It was just us two in the house when we came back
**LIA**I ended up explaining everything to Jasper on our way back home, our arms still linked together. "Well that is...just messed up!" He concluded. Right?! "I know!" I replied. "The important thing now is that she is safe and well tucked in." He said tapping my hand that was linked to his. "Yes that is true..." I said. As long as my baby's safe. We finally got to our gate and he decided to escort me to my door. "You should get some rest, I don't suggest you drink that today..." He said referring to the 6 cans of beer I had in the nylon I held. "It's already late, you should just get some rest.""Thanks Jasper," I removed my arm from his."I'll get that rest," "You should probably talk to Drex," He said with a smile. "Good night Lia," and then he left. "Good night," I waved at him. I got inside hoping Drex would be in his room already asleep but he was still in the living room. I tried as much as possible not to make eye contact,so I'd just head into my room but he wa
**DREX**After spending the whole day with Jessica, she begged me to take her to my house, to sleep over. I couldn't refuse, I took her home. We were heading in when Jessica decided to chat a bit outside with meWe were having a chat, our hands intertwined, when I noticed Lia and she was holding a sound sleeping Angel in her hand. She looked like she was shocked or something. Why is she just entering now? Isn't it a bit too late? I shouldn't bother, it's not really my problem... Is it?"You're one despicable human being" she said and walked away. "What's her deal?" Jessica asked while I just watched her walk away. "Drex! Hello! Focus on me!" Jessica brings my attention back to her. But it seems like my mind wanted to wonder the more. What happened and why am I a despicable human being? Did I do something that hurt her that bad? "Drex! Come on!" Jessica tries again. "Oh I'm sorry Jessica, you should probably head home," I said to her. "What?!" She raised her voice in surprise. "
**DREX**After dropping Lia at school, I went straight to mine. I am almost done with school, I just have few months left and I'm off to the sky! No litrally, I don't Know why but the love I have for being up there is so huge. Ever since I was little, I have always enjoyed flying so much I decided to be a pilot so it would be a regular thing for me to fly. When I told my dad, he made sure I got the best education, hired the best tutor and looked for the best college for me. He has always tried to help me, but somehow I was always disappointing him, not in my studies, just in everything else, like making any decisions. And something I thought was the biggest disappointment was somehow his happiness. Anyways, I have decided to make him proud by being the best pilot there is. After all that's what he expects from me after giving me the best. Didn't have much classes to do today, so I was done with classes by 2. Since I am in my final year it's mostly just projects and assignments. I w
**LIA**As I emerged from my room, the tension in the air was suffocating. All I could think about was grabbing a beer to numb the stress pulsating through my veins. Striding purposefully to the kitchen, I swung open the fridge door, hoping for a glimmer of relief. But alas, only one lone can greeted my searching gaze, mocking my desperate craving.Frustration clawed at my insides as I closed the fridge, resigned to my dwindling supply. Retreating back to my room, I shed the constraints of the day, I needed to get more cans, slipping into the comforting embrace of a grey sweat pant and hoodie. Tying my unruly hair into a messy bun, I tried to contain the chaos raging within. Taking my phone with me and coming back out of my room, Drex was already in the living room, he was watching the whatever was on TV. I didn't even want to see him right now, I was beyond pissed! I just wanted to quietly leave the house unfortunately he notices my presence. "Hey where are you going to?" He asked.
