Slipping into the backseat, Nora met the gaze of the taxi driver through the rearview mirror. With a quick nod, she conveyed the address, her voice tinged with a mix of determination and apprehension. The driver acknowledged her request, and with swift acceleration, the taxi zoomed into the flow of traffic.During the ride, Nora's eyes flickered between the passing scenery and her phone, as if seeking a momentary distraction from the weight of the impending visit. The cityscape blurred outside the window as she silently contemplated the unknown encounter that awaited her at Merrick's mansion.The taxi driver pulled up to the grand entrance, stopping just in front of the imposing gate. As Nora stepped out of the vehicle, her eyes scanned the surroundings, taking in the elegance of Merrick's mansion. To her surprise, the gate swung open automatically, revealing a path that beckoned her forward. Unbeknownst to her, Merrick had instructed the security to grant access to any woman fitting

However, as their passionate exchange reached its peak, they both recognized the need to pause and catch their breath. Reluctantly, they separated, their lips lingering in the air, still carrying the lingering warmth of their intimate moment. Their eyes locked, the intensity of their gaze reflecting the unspoken desire that hung in the air between them.Nora gazed deeply into Merrick's eyes, her attention gradually shifting to his lips. The lingering sensation of their recent kiss still enveloped her, wrapping her in a comforting warmth. She couldn't help but wonder if the reason it felt so nice and inviting was because it had been years since she had shared such an intimate moment with a man. The longing for more tugged at her, but she fought to restrain herself, cautious of the boundaries that existed between them.Merrick, sensing her internal conflict, moved closer to Nora, his eyes filled with tenderness. With a gentle gesture, he pressed a soft peck on her lips, a subtle yet aff

After dropping the twins off at home from school, Alice, Nora's best friend left and hadn't returned. The evening had descended, casting shadows across the quiet neighborhood. Inside the house, Mia and Axel huddled together, bold and restless. Sensing their unease, Mia suggested going outside to wait for their mom."Let's go outside and wait for Mom," Mia suggested to Axel, her voice filled with tension unable to stay inside anymore.Axel glanced at her, his expression hesitant. "Can't we wait inside? We could watch TV or play games," he proposed, hoping to avoid the darkness outside."No, Axel," Mia replied firmly, her fatigue evident in her voice. "I'm tired. I'm going outside alone if you don't want to come with me."Concern etched across his face, Axel warned, "But Mia, if you stay outside alone, you might get kidnapped."Unfazed, Mia retorted, "Then let me get kidnapped! If that happens, it's your fault. Mom always told you to protect me. Since you don't want to, no problem,I'll

Mia's heart raced, her mind filled with confusion. "Where could it be?" she whispered to herself, a tinge of shock coloring her voice. She continued to turn around the kitchen, her eyes scanning every corner, desperate to locate the missing teas that had seemingly disappeared into thin air.Frustrated by her unsuccessful search, Mia called out urgently to Nora. "Mom!" she called out, her voice carrying exasperation and desperation. Nora, amused by the urgency in Mia's tone, responded, "Yes, dear? I'm here." Nora answered knowing what Mia meant and with a giggle, Nora made her way to the kitchen, her steps quickening in response to Mia's plea for assistance.As Nora entered the kitchen, Mia raised her hand, signaling for Nora to lean in closer. Nora obliged, lowering her ear to meet Mia's lips. In a hushed whisper, Mia asked the burning question that plagued her mind. "Mom, where is the tea pack?, I can't find it" Her voice held a sense of urgency and disbelief. Nora met Mia's gaze di

All eyes turned towards the door, anticipation etched on their faces. Merrick, quick to catch on, glanced at Nora before addressing the newcomer. "Ah, her best friend," he remarked casually Innerly, attempting to diffuse any potential confusion. Alice, sensing the change in atmosphere, greeted everyone with a cheerful, "What's up, everyone?"As Alice's gaze swept across the scene, she caught sight of a familiar figure seated at the dining table. Her eyes widened in shock, unable to comprehend the unexpected sight before her. "Nora... your boss?" Alice stammered, her voice filled with confusion and disbelief on seeing Merrick. "How did he get here? When? From Where?" Her questions tumbled out, betraying her utter bewilderment at the unfolding situation.Nora nervously bit her lower lip, a subtle sign of her unease, and then turned to Alice, attempting to divert attention from the probing question. "Come on, Alice, let's have dinner. It's getting late," she suggested, hoping to steer th
