Chapter: chapter 135AriaMecael held me until I stopped crying sniveling. Still,I held onto him because I did not want him to go away.I cried because at the end of it all everything had worked out. Not all of it was perfect but it was in place.Like last month the business made a loss but it did not collapse. It stayed and this month I'm certain it will all be better.Just like our lives,bits by bit,it was all falling into place.For the last three months, everything had happened so fast and I couldn't help myself from worrying that it will all fall apart.We had bought a larger apartment where we had room for the kids to run around. Thick walls for mecael and I and a larger kitchen and office for Phoebe.Alex had finally admitted to his feelings. Though he was thrown into a turmoil when Liz proposed out of nowhere,he got after it soon enough and said yes. They had a church wedding which obviously came as a surprise to all of us.None of the boys have visited Heloriet ever since he was taken away. We rec

Chapter: Chapter 134Aria"Mom." I yelled as I made my way into the station.Mecael met me halfway. "Babe." I felt his gaze travel past me. "They have gone to get Greg from the airport." He nodded in understanding."Lorei…she."I step past him and charged towards my mother who was screaming about Heloriet being mad.I grabbed her biceps and forced her to stand still facing me. "What do you think you're doing,mother!"Her hands held onto my arms and she shook me frantically. "Aria…Aria..tell them,tell them how he tortured me. How he ran that…that business and forced the drugs down me. Tell them everything."My eyes burned with tears and I could not understand the reason behind them.Maybe it was the fury of watching her act like this. Or the extent of truth her words held.Perhaps it was none of those but the fact that ay the back of my mind I wanted to see her drop dead.It was the feeling of me having to betray the woman who carried me for none months and also took part in my upbringing.But why should

"He's okay,I guess."I stop moving. "You guess?""He keeps on repeating that he did not push them. It's day three,Aria,your mom is not awake and so is the doctor."I sigh and sit. "Can I be honest with you? I feel nothing about this situation. In real sense I feel like they both deserve it. Except for the doctor,he doesn't."He hums from the other side. "I get you babe.""Is Alex with you?""He's supposed to be there by now,also Greg and Lionne are on their way. They are almost landing if I'm not wrong."The door opens. "I'll call you later.""Bye babe. Be safe.""Doctor.""Aria? She is awake.""The man?""His chances of survival are pretty low. But we'll keep you updated.""Then how is she?

Chapter: Chapter 131HelorietMy heart thudded painfully against my chest. Sweat droplets trickled down my face,behind my neck all the way down to my back.I swallowed hard,an action that was painful as well. The temperature in the room seemed to be cold but at the same time I was so hot that I was literally burning up.My knees were on the floor and I remained there,not wanting to tempt Lorei because I was too aware of what she was capabilities.She let out a loud sigh and removed her gloves. She licked up a pair of scissors that was lying on top of the drawer.Snipping it towards me,she said, "Do you want to know what I'm going to do with this?"No. No I did not.Her words scared me but what crepped me out even more was what she was going to do. Stabbing him to death? That would be painful. But he might survive if she happens to stab the less delicate parts,his thigh,for example.I shivered and pushed the thought further away as possible.If I think positive then everything else will be positive.

I want you alive,so alive so that you won't be able to take any more of living.""I've already seen what you have succedes at doing,if that is what you want to confirm."A chuckle escapes my mouth. "I know you've seen it. I mean,I went out of my way to ensure they aired it,I did all that for you.""Geez,thanks.""You're welcome." I place the glass down and get to my feet. I swing slowly to where the other man was seated,tied up on a chair."Are you asleep,Heloriet?""What? No,I am tired.""Don't care." I tap on the man,waking him up.

Chapter: Chapter 46Desdemona It was all good.The joy in the house, the laughter shared, the plays they engaged in, the only things being created were good memories.It was all good.Too good to let it last.The pair had sidelined me in all that they did. Baking, cooking, playing games, I was even blindfolded while they were watching a movie.Here they were thinking of baking again. Apparently my daughter loved the activity so much she wants to do it for the rest of her life. Worst part is she wants to do it with Ettiene!“Molly,dear, I think its time to get back home. You have to go to the kindergarten tomorrow.”She whines and jumps up from the counter. I scream out, reaching for her but she was already in Ettienes hands.“Molly!” I scream. She continues to giggle, completely ignoring me.Ettiene helps her up the counter. Once again, she jumps and lands in his arms“Guys, guys,” I get in between them. “I agree that you are having fun but fun doesn't have to be dangerous.”“Okay Mommy.” She sits.

Everytime I face him,he avoids eyecontact.“Come on,we can't be doing this everyday. You agreed to let me be.”“Never said I'll smile as I walk you put the door.”Good point.My phone beeps, a message from Ettiene signaling he was here and that I should leave my phone behind.I sigh and call out to Molly.She comes running as usual.“Go over there and kiss Mr. Grumpy goodbye. I'll be back.”Outside, Ettiene had stepped out of the car and was now leaning against it. “What? You plan on kidnapping me?”He laughs and pulls me in his arms for a light kiss.It was over before I could even fight back.“Seriously, you-” I shake my head to clear the fog caused by his stupid kiss.“If you carry yo

The clock starred at me reminding me I have four hours to sleep before work.The date offer from Ettiene still lingers in the air. Not because I don't want to go but because he wants to go on a play date with my daughter included.A knock comes before the knob turns. He flips on the lights.“Something told me you were still awake.”“That thing was right.” I sit up.He hands me a glass of milk.“What's keeping you up?”“Ettiene and his stupid family.”He chuckles. “Must be hard.” Silence embraces us and for the first time I was uncomfortable in it.“Hey, you have something to talk about?”“I don't like the guy and the stress he puts over you. No, it's not because I'm I love with you or anything, I hate what he put you through. And I hate that you want to go back to him.”“I'm giving him time to pr

Owning My Stepfather:A Forbidden Romance
Can we coexist, William? Or is one of us eventually going to have to leave for the other to stay?"
"I don't plan for anyone leaving. Not unless we're all going.," I said.
"You don't plan for anything you can't control," Elias countered.
He reached out, his hand hovering near the sleeve of my sweater before he actually touched it. His fingers gripped the wool, his knuckles brushing the skin of my forearm. "What happened in 2018, William?” He asked softly.
“A small cottage in upstate New York. Bought and sold in six months. No profit. No record of who stayed there."
I felt the blood drain from my face. My hand moved instinctively, catching his wrist, my grip tighter than I intended.
"Stop digging," I hissed, my voice a low, lethal vibration.
"You’re hurting me," Elias whispered, but he didn't pull away. He leaned in, his eyes wide and dark, searching mine.
"Tell me what was there, Will. Tell me who you were before you married my mother."
"There was nothing in the cottage." I said, my heart hammering a frantic rhythm. I released his wrist, my hand shaking as I pulled it back. "Tell your friend to stop. Now."
Elias looked at his wrist, the red marks of my fingers already beginning to bloom against his pale skin. He didn't look angry. He looked... fascinated.
"So you can lose control" he breathed, a slow, triumphant smile spreading across his face. "You're just a man good at maintaining it." His eyes were wide with interest.

After his father's death and the mother remarried three months later, Elias is furious and out for revenge.
As he digs into his stepfather's secrets,he finds some he can use against him and some that makes him confused about his feelings towards him.

Why would you want to kill those poor animals?” I pick up the plates and round the counter to be on his side.“Then mountain climbing will do.” He backed quickly.My heart paced faster. I took in a deep breathe and locked eyes with him. As usual no emotion was written in his face.

Claire had retreated to her room hours ago, claiming a migraine, leaving the silence of the house to be filled by the distant, rhythmic lap of the water against the dock. The stairs groaned. I didn't need to look up to know it was him. Elias had a specific way of moving, it was unhurried, the opposite of how I needed things and people to move."Is that... actual food?" Elias asked, leaning against the doorframe. He had traded his pajamas for a pair of black jeans and a worn out hoodie. "I figured you just plugged yourself into a wall to recharge while eating a spreadsheet for dinner.""I am capable of basic domesticity, Elias," I replied,ignoring his sarcasm. "So I've seen," Elias said, wandering into the kitchen. He hopped onto the counter, not the stool, but the actual marble surface and sat there watching me and waiting for a reaction."Sit on the stool, Elias. The counter is for preparation, not your ass."He didn

Behind her was William, already dressed in a charcoal sweater, looking as unreadable as ever. "We’re going to the lake house, Elias," my mother announced, her voice carrying a forced cheerfulness that set my teeth on edge. "Pack a bag. We’re leaving in an hour." I paused with a spoonful of sugary oats halfway to my mouth. I looked at her, then cut my gaze to William. He was leaning against the counter, his eyes meeting mine with a heavy, silent intensity. "A lake house?" I asked, dropping the spoon back into the bowl with a metallic clink. "Is this a vacation or what? Because I have a life, Mom. I have... things. You can't just plan a trip and tell me about It an hour to.." “It wasn't planned….” She drifted off. “Oh please! As if you've ever done anything spontaneously.” "You don't have much to

Chapter: Chapter 14WilliamThe house at 3:00 AM was deadly quiet.I sat in the kitchen, the marble island cold beneath my palms. I hadn't turned on the lights; the ambient glow of the city through the breakfast nook windows provided enough visibility to see the amber liquid in my glass.Arthur Vane.The name felt like a brand. Elias had found the one thread I’d spent half a decade and millions of dollars trying to bury. I should have been furious. I should have been drafting a nondisclosure agreement that would keep him quiet. Instead, all I could feel was a strange, hollow lightness. The secret was out, and the world hadn't ended.A floorboard creaked in the hallway. I didn't turn."You know, for a man obsessed with security, your situational awareness is surprisingly low when you’re brooding," a voice chirped from the shadows.Elias drifted into the kitchen. He was wearing a pair of oversized flannel pajama pants and a t-shirt that should have been long in the trash. He looked ridiculous. He didn'

I’d spent the last hour staring at a merger filing that made as much sense as a set of IKEA instructions written in ancient Sumerian.My phone buzzed against my thigh.Leo: Found something. Check the secure link. Don't open this in the office WiFi. My pulse spiked as I looked through the glass to where William was seated,hunched over his own desk.“He's been visiting a clinic under a pseudonym.” Another text hit me phone before I could finish going through the documents.My eyes skimmed through the data Leo had sent me. It wasn't much, it wasn't even in depth but it was something hidden and that was worth it.I began typing back a reply before I heard him.“You're focused.” His voice came from the door.I didn't jump.

"The lobby is full of people who will be watching you like they're getting paid for it. Act accordingly.""You’ve said that three times now," I muttered, adjusting my tie for the twentieth time. "I know the script, William. I’m the dedicated student, an eager apprentice. I get it."The elevator chimed, and the doors slid open to the sprawling, glass and marble Vance International.

Dear Billionaire, I'm Back For Your Name
Please…” I begged wanting him to do more.
My body shook when he increased the pace.I dropped my back to the desk and arched my back.His mouth found my clit and I let out a deep moan.
I could feel the pressure building up.
“Greg,I'm so…so close.” I whimpered.
His movement slowed a bit.
“No!” I cried. “Please.”
I could feel the smile tugging in his lips as he continued to lick on my clit.
“Please…” I begged even more,my voice sounding needy even to my own ears.
He increased his pace.Fingering me faster and harder.
My toes curled as I felt the pressure about to explode inside of me.
“I'm going to cum..”
“Then do so,show me how good you can be and cum for me.”
Pressure exploded through me,my whole body shaking from it all.I let my head rest on the desk as I tried to catch my breathe.
His arms came around me, lifted me up and wrapped me in his arms.
“Thank you.” I whispered.
He planted a light kiss on my shoulder and just held me.
I pulled back and looked him in the eye.
“That was my first orgasm.” I announced proudly,warmth filling my heart.
He smiled and leaned in.”How about another one.”

No,the feeling of someone driving a nail on my head couldn't allow me to.“Lights…” I groaned,lifting my hand to cover my eyes.“Oh.” Came the soft response before the room became dim.I forced my eyelids open and stared at the man infront of me.Green eyes,wide and fixated on me.“Are you okay?”I look at my arm where the IV was inserted into a vein.“Well,I'm not getting my vitamins,am I?”He shook his head but didn't say a word.I glanced around the room.“Where's my husband?” “Taking care of some things.”I frown.”Did he really go ahead with the mission? Why are you here? What time is it?”The door opens and a man walks in.“Emillia,how are you feeling?”Dumb question.I almost died yet everyone is busy asking that same question.

I'll ask for forgiveness for the hurt I've cause her.My father...he said these men were dangerous.How did he know?The only way to know someone is to interact with them,see their contrasting sides.Does this mean he had crossed paths with Greg before?I shake my head,feeling dizzy from the action and the thoughts.

Strands of hair fell across his face and oh how I loved that. My eyes move from his face to his desk.How huge it was.How perfectly fit it is for- “Tell me.”His voice put a pause my thoughts. When I looked up,his eyes were on me.Ever so intense. “What?” He puts his pen away and pushes the papers at a distance. Then he leans back. “Come here.” He calls and I do not hesitate to answer.

She allows me to take it. I walked to the counter and take it apart then I pushed the pieces forward for her to observe.
