Ivy was hungry as well and it was because of the trouble with Tarquin and Emma, she didn't have dinner. She cooked the food and deserved to eat it, therefore she went downstairs but to her surprise, she met Tarquin inside. He was not just standing there but eating the food which he had refused earlier. What was more shocking was how he consumed the food, he ate like his life depended on it. He even failed to notice her presence because he was too engrossed in eating, therefore she decided to surprise him as well. Tarquin whose body had stiffened, slowly turned to see Ivy. He thought it was his imagination but he was wrong. The spoon dropped from his hand and he shamefully managed to chew the food in his mouth. "Tarquin, why can't you let go of your pride? Sometimes humility could save a person from a lot of mortification like the one you're facing right now. All I did was invite you for dinner not like I asked you to fuck me" Ivy said with a hint of sarcasm in her last sentence.
His mouth was agape as he stared at her. She was wearing a beautiful black dress, it had little diamonds on it, it had a v-neck shape along with straps made of shiny pearls.The gown suited her so well and made her look like a mermaid. The lower part of the dress looked like a mermaid's tail, showing those beautiful curves of hers.His eyes went slowly to her face and she had this smile on her fairly red lips, her make-up made her look more beautiful as well and her hair was straightened and styled in a way that made her look sophisticated.Tarquin couldn't close his mouth as he stared at her, she had never looked this beautiful before. Her effort was worth it because she was drop-dead gorgeous.Ivy noticed the way Tarquin was gazing at her and she felt a little uncomfortable by it. She expected him to admire her a bit, not making it obvious.She had a lot of men staring at her but not this intensely. His stare wasn't creepy or perverted but it felt strange because he had never scrutin
Ivy intentionally kissed the side of his lips, it was such a soft press that made Tarquin's body freeze.His mind couldn't process what she had done for more than a minute, even when she smiled and walked away, he still didn't move.He was affected by what she had done. It was unexpected and surprising that Ivy would dare kiss him, they didn't even do that when she signed the damn contract.Emma was also more shocked to witness it but what irritated her was Tarquin's expression. He looked like a teenager who had been kissed for the first time. It wasn't even a kiss on the lips.She fisted her hands in anger and stood in front of him.Tarquin looked at her and finally blinked, he hadn't blinked since the second Ivy kissed him."Why do I suspect that you are fascinated by that nonsense? That can't even be called a kiss and you're so infatuated by it!" Emma gasped.She had begun doubting Tarquin, why did it seem like he was developing this attraction from Ivy?"It's not what you think," T
Ivy staggered backward and held her cheek in pain. It stung badly and became red almost immediately. Ivy looked at Tarquin with teary eyes, she was completely taken aback by what he had done. She had expected so many things from him but not for him to slap her in the face. Ivy held back her tears, rushed out of there, she grabbed her bag on the way. She ran upstairs in a struggle and reached her room before tears began trickling down her cheeks. She rushed to the bed and buried her face in it. It wasn't just the slap that hurt but the fact that he did it. She expected his harshness and maliciousness but not going to the extent of hitting her. Ivy touched her face again and it was hot as a result of the slap. "How could he hit me? I didn't even do anything to that bitch" Ivy cried out, her tears were already dampening the sheets. "It hurts so much," Ivy cried helplessly. She only had people online to consult but how much can they help? They can only write words but not be her sh
(Continuation of flashback) "Say it again!" "I will never steal again." Young Tarquin cried, his fingers had been dislocated.He thought he would never be able to use his hands again. "It hurts, my hands!" He cried as his father pushed him to the floor. Mrs Caroline ran into the kitchen and her eyes widened to see her son on the floor. She was about to rush to him when Mr Jones held her back. "Leave me alone!" She cried, trying to get to her son. She began fighting back and even got to slap him. That was her worst mistake because it angered him the most. He grabbed a handful of her hair and dragged her to the sink. He pushed her against it and pinned her head to it. "Ahh!!!." He tore open her dress and right there, he raped her from behind. Young Tarquin watched everything play before his eyes and with each second that passed, more of his tears flowed down his temples. (End of flashback) Tarquin gasped, he looked at his hands and clenched them into a fist. He had traces of
John's eyes widened as she kissed his lips. He wanted to push her away but the tenderness of her lips and the burning desire in him, he couldn't resist kissing her back.He reciprocated the kiss and stuck his tongue into her mouth, the instant he had the chance.He twirled his tongue in her mouth, visiting every part that his tongue could go to. Despite the taste of alcohol in her mouth, he loved every second of the kiss.The movement of his tongue made her moan."Hmm," Morgan moaned into his mouth and tightened her grip around his neck.The kiss became more intense with each second that passed.John pulled away from the kiss as he thought about the fact that this woman wasn't just anyone but his Boss' sister."No, we can't do this," John said and attempted to get away.She pulled him down to the bed and he fell right on her."I want you" Morgan chuckled as her eyes scrutinized his face though her vision went blurry from time to time she got glimpses of his pink lips, perfectly structu
"That's what I'm talking about" Emma grinned then closed her lips to kiss him.He kissed her back and found his way into her mouth. They kissed till her back touched his door.Emma put her hand behind her and twisted the door knob. The door opened and they entered, still kissing.*The next morning, Ivy woke up and crawled out of bed. She didn't know how she slept off because she kept thinking about her life and how she was going to move on with it.Ivy touched her face and pouted her lips. She walked to the dressing table and checked her face, the fingerprints of Tarquin had vanished.She sighed and removed the dress she was wearing. She didn't change into her pajamas yesterday. She was devastated and couldn't do anything but cry.Ivy undressed and went to the bathroom to freshen up. She came out and dressed in a peach-colored gown that looked simple but beautiful.She left her room and went to the kitchen to eat. On getting there, she didn't see the maid inside preparing breakfast bu
Ivy kicked back her tears. "You and I know that I didn't pinch you," Ivy said and stood up to her feet. She was about to walk out when Tarquin's voice stopped her. "Where do you think you are going? Apologize first!" Tarquin ordered. "I shall not repeat myself."Ivy slowly turned back and a fake smile spread on her lips "I'm…I'm sorry" Ivy stuttered but refused to lower her gaze like some scared kitten. Emma smiled triumphantly and replied; "Better, now massage my legs properly."Ivy slowly sat on the floor and began massaging her legs but she started pressing her fingers hard against her bones. "Ah!, bitch" Emma screamed out of real pain. She tried kicking Ivy again but this time, she dodged. Ivy quickly stood up and almost smiled. "You need to be taught a lesson!" Tarquin said, staring at her in disbelief. "I'm not a masseuse, so you getting hurt isn't my fault because I'm not an expert in the field" Ivy scoffed and walked away. Emma was shocked by how much confidence Ivy s
