Silence filled the air again. We sat there for a while watching the flames crackle in the fireplace. I wasn’t sure how long we stayed like that. However, I did start to notice as his hand loosened and slowly began to slip from my side. As I glanced over, I noticed his glass beginning to tip dangerously in his hand. I gasped, catching it right before it fell.
"Jack!" I cried, checking to make sure it didn't spill.
He jumped as if I'd startled him. I glanced over, he looked confused. Had he fallen asleep? I snickered and set his glass on the table.
"I think it might be time for bed,” I suggested
"No, no. I was just resting my eyes," he grumbled sleepily.
"Well, then let's rest them in bed," I insisted, standing. I t
I fell in love with him when he was Jack. Although, I honestly don't know if I ever really knew who “Jack” was. The doctors say his condition is rare. Therapy might help, but there's no guarantee he’d ever fully recover.I only knew a few things to be absolutely true about him. He was the last living member of an old and incredibly wealthy family called "Weston," he lived alone in a humongous mansion hidden in the Canadian wilderness, he had an incredibly rare mental illness that made him believe he was a different person nearly every day, and I was hopelessly in love with him.I met him by accident. I was twenty-six, broke, and on the verge of being homeless. I wasn't close with my family but did keep close ties with one friend from my hometown: Sara. She was one of the few people I felt comfortable enough to confide in.
I don't know how much time had passed by the time I woke up, but I could tell it was already dark. I heard a gentle crackling and the scent of smoke was faintly noticeable. Thomas must have lit a fire for me. How kind of him.As I turned, I felt something tugging gently on my hair. Did it get caught on a part of the bed? I reached up to untangle it, but instead of hard wood, my fingers touched soft skin. That woke me up. I gasped and sat up, looking around in a blind panic."Sorry, did I wake you?" Mr. Weston's voice spoke from the dark.I rubbed my eyes, hoping they would adjust to the darkness. Mr. Weston? It couldn’t be. I must’ve been dreaming. But I wasn’t. Slowly, his silhouette became clear.
I wasn’t sure exactly what was happening in my dream, but it felt nice. I was in this warm, hazy place. I couldn't really focus on my surroundings though. All I could focus on was the burning heat between my legs and the pleasure it sent through my body. I heard my name being murmured by a raspy voice.Anna.The hazy dream world started to vanish around me. As I opened my eyes, I was met with darkness. Slowly, I remembered where I was. I was back in the canopy bed in Mr. Weston's room. However, the pleasure between my legs was still there and getting stronger. I felt something hard pressing against my thigh."Anna,” the voice murmured again.This time, I recognized it. It was Mr. Weston. The shock woke me completely. Blush filled my cheeks as I reali
A gentle shaking woke me from my sleep. I opened my eyes to see Thomas standing over me. He looked concerned. Memories of last night came rushing to me. I tried to leap up, but he pressed me to the bed by my shoulders. A wave of fear filled me.He must have seen the fear in my eyes because he raised one hand and put a finger to his lips, a signal for me to be silent. He pointed over my shoulder. It was at that moment I realized Mr. Weston was sleeping with his arm still around me.Thomas leaned in close to me and whispered, "Try not to wake Mr. Weston unnecessarily when you get up. Consider this the beginning of your training. Come downstairs when you are dressed and ready. You have much to learn today."With that Thomas released my shoulders and quietly left. In the silence, I became all too clearly reminded of wha
Mr. Weston stared at Thomas and me for a moment. His face gave nothing away. Who was he today? Did he remember us? Did he remember me? Did he remember what happened last night? A smile slowly filled his face."Good morning, Thomas. Ms. Walton. I’m happy to see you’re still here. Thomas, what have I missed so far?”“Nothing, Sir. You haven’t left us yet, actually,” Thomas replied."Really? That’s great!” Mr. Weston turned to look at me. “Well, that being the case, we should probably have breakfast sooner rather than later. I know how hard Thomas works the trainees and you’ll need your energy, Ms. Walton. Let’s eat.”
A short time later, the door to the kitchen swung open. The chef appeared with a large serving cart carrying more silver trays. He spent several minutes laying the spread of food and drinks in front of us before excusing himself back to the kitchen.Mr. Weston was right. I did need my energy today and right now, I was beyond starving. I hadn't eaten anything since my lunch on the plane the day before. I was absolutely famished and the food looked far too tempting.But, again, the fear of “etiquette” came to mind. Were there rules for this kind of thing? Should I wait until Mr. Weston started eating? Was there an “appropriate amount” of food to take? Was there a system for the silverware? The questions were swimming around in my head, but my body betrayed me. A loud growl echoed from my stomach. Mr. Weston looked at me with a mixture of s
I followed him into the garden. The place we first met. The scene was just as beautiful as the day before, but I could hardly focus on it now. He sat on the same stone bench as before. He looked my way and motioned for me to sit with him. We stayed silent for a while, watching as the morning sun rose higher into the sky.As much as I wanted to know the truth, I didn’t want to push my luck. At least, not any more than I already had. I sat silently, hoping he would work up the nerve to answer my question. Not that I would be surprised if he didn’t. After all, I knew just as well as he did how embarrassing this whole situation was. I was about to give up and tell him to forget about it when I heard him sigh.He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Anna, what I'm about to say will probably be the single most humiliating speec
I couldn’t even begin to explain the pleasure that coursed through my body at that moment. I’d barely touched myself, but the feeling was already intense. I grabbed a pillow and bit it, trying to stifle the involuntary moan that exited my lips.Pain followed pleasure. My lower lips were still sore from Mr. Weston's touch, but with that pain came the sweet memories of what he had done to me. It only increased my desire. I ached. I ached so badly for his touch. To feel the sweet mixture of shame and pleasure as he touched me however he pleased and called out my name in ecstasy. Anna. Anna. I felt as if those words would echo in my head forever.The ache of emptiness was becoming too much. I remembered the way his hand had slipped below my panties. Though he touched
Silence filled the air again. We sat there for a while watching the flames crackle in the fireplace. I wasn’t sure how long we stayed like that. However, I did start to notice as his hand loosened and slowly began to slip from my side. As I glanced over, I noticed his glass beginning to tip dangerously in his hand.

I snickered and set his glass on the table."I think it might be time for bed,” I suggested"No, no. I was just resting my eyes," he grumbled sleepily."Well, then let's rest them in bed," I insisted, standing. I t
I think I finally understood how Arthur felt when I forced him to eat. I shoved down bite after bite, wondering how many I'd have to eat to safely be considered “done.” After a minute, I set my fork down, watching Jack out of the corner of my eye to see how he’d react. When I didn’t see any noticeable changes I finally pushed my plate away."What do you think? Should we head to bed now?" I asked, wiping my mouth."Absolutely not!" He cried indignantly. “I only have a few precious hours left with you and you already know the chances of me waking up as myself again are slim. The last thing I'm going to do is waste one second we have together sleeping."He reached over and grabbed my hand, bringing it to his lips. He pressed my palm to his cheek. His eyes held a tinge of sadness as he look
Despite his insistence that we should get out of the bath, Jack still clung to me like a lovestruck schoolboy. His hands always seemed to be on me in one way or another. Drying me with a towel, playing with my hair, holding my hand. A series of small, sweet gestures that never failed to make my heart flutter. Sadly, I wasn’t able to enjoy the feeling for long. A horrifying revelation suddenly came to me. I gasped and immediately grabbed my clothes off the floor, scrambling to get dressed. He watched me, confused. "Is something wrong?" "I forgot to meet the cleaners," I said, exasperated. "I’m already super late. I have to go. I'll meet you downstairs for dinner." I rushed out
Tell him what I did with Victor? I could feel myself blushing just thinking about it. Don’t get me wrong, I could understand why Jack wanted to know, but that still didn’t make me any more comfortable with the idea. I shook my head, setting my wine glass on the edge of the bath.He sighed softly. “I understand. As I said, I certainly won’t force you to tell me anything.”I could feel my body starting to relax as he said this. At least, until his teeth grazed against my neck. I shivered a bit at the feeling. He pressed a couple more soft kisses to it.“However,” he teased, “I don’t necessarily
My heart was still racing, as he closed the door behind us. However, I didn’t have much time to dwell on this. He didn’t waste another second before he pulled me close and pressed his lips to mine.Kissing Jack always made me feel dizzy. Like my body was losing all its strength. I had to lean against him to support myself. As he pulled away he kept my body close so I wouldn't collapse. His fingers played with my hair."You know what sounds good after walking around in that hot sun all afternoon? A nice, relaxing bath,” he commented.My mind was still hazy from his kiss. I barely even registered what he was saying. It was like my brain auto-piloted right back into my caretaker role."Should I draw one for you, Sir?" I asked.
I saw a couple of the housekeepers scurrying around as we came back. They didn’t even seem to notice us as we walked past them. I guess I could understand why they acted that way though. After all, they were here to clean, not look after us. That was my job.The cleaners might not have been the best companions, but something about just knowing they were around made the house feel a little more lively. I wondered how lonely it would feel tomorrow. Just the two of us.Although considering his earlier request, I might not mind having some privacy tomorrow. I blushed a bit as I remembered the husky tone of his voice.As if he could read my mind, he suddenly leaned in and kissed me. I pulled away nervously. My face felt hot."Mr. Weston, the cleaners!" I reminded
As always, the garden looked beautiful. It was just too bad that I couldn't enjoy it. I hated my mind. The moment we stepped outside the dream I had last night popped back into my head.I didn't want to feel anxious in the garden. I loved the garden. It was the place where Victor and I had walked before, where Arthur and I took photos, where Jack and I first met.Yet as I looked around, all I could remember were the hundreds and hundreds of agonized faces that had surrounded me. All of them crying out, begging me to choose them. I almost shuddered just thinking of it. Would I ever feel comfortable here again?"Are you alright, Anna?" Jack asked suddenly.I sighed. I felt like I was getting that question a lot lately. How did I somehow manage to make
I felt the warmth of his body as it pressed against mine. His fingers kept inching closer and closer towards my aching clit. My mind was a mess. Fulfill his request? For my body?My stomach was a flutter of nerves at the idea, but I wasn’t sure why. After all, hadn’t we done this all before? I'd already seen his body, and we’d definitely done more than just some light petting by now. So why did I feel so nervous about doing it again?It was stupid to ask that question. I already knew the answer. It was because this would be my first real time doing something like this with Jack.Different men in the same body. I understood that now better than ever. Jack wasn’t Victor, and Victor wasn’t Jack. The way they spoke to me, the way they teased me, the way they touched my body. The
I said before that I liked how kind and gentle Jack was, but there was another thing I really liked about him. His patience. I was taking a long time to answer, I knew I was, but he never once tried to rush me. He just stood there, patiently waiting for me to respond.I swallowed a few times, trying to clear the lump from my throat. I took a shaky breath and finally forced the words out of my mouth."Not yet.”"Alright, good. And do you feel the same way about the others?" He asked. I nodded. "Then that's all there is to it.Anna, I said I wasn’t going to make you choose between us and I meant it. Your relationships are your relationships. It wouldn’t be f
