MARIANELLAIn the end, we managed to survive the weekend, everything had worked out better than expected, Mama is even regretting our departure in the morning.We needed to leave early, as we are facing many hours of flight, and Roman and I have an appointment with his mother in the evening, my stomach is twisting at the thought of meeting his mother after hours of flight, I will probably be destroyed, and worse, so tired that I might not even do my best in this role I have been playing for the last few days.He was putting it off as long as he could, but his mother didn't make room for negotiation on the subject, and I thought it better to face it soon, that way she will be more relaxed, or not.The morning was hectic, we woke up earlier than usual to organize the bags and get coffee with my parents, which was practically a requirement, we didn't have much of a say in the matter.Roman doesn't care much about this part, but I want to leave as soon as possible, and not run the risk of
MARIANELLAI realized that I had become unaccustomed to these days away when I had to go back to work, I couldn't remember how much of a rush I went through on a daily basis.Things are still hectic, Mum really keeps her promise and calls me daily to find out about me and of course her son-in-law, she never leaves that part out.I have been very busy dealing with the attention I have been getting, everywhere I go, people look at me, I have even seen them taking pictures, they are not exactly discreet, it annoys me a bit, but I accepted these conditions willingly, I have no right to complain now.The company news is that Roman has hired a second assistant, the one who will take my place when I leave, so he shares the room with me and is busy l
MARIANELLAAs the days went by, I discovered new roles in being Roman's fiancée, this included everything from appointments with his friends, which he didn't want to go to to be honest, to talking to his mother a few times a week, she texts me sometimes to ask how things are going, and like today in this case, she asked to have lunch with me.I couldn't answer no, because I would have to have a plausible reason and I don't have one at the moment, so I was left with only the choice of saying that I was super available for her, as well as promising not to tell her son about this meeting.That last part is a bit strange, what would be so important that she would not want to tell her son that she was going to meet me, it is particularly suspicious, does she intend to do something with me?I swallow the bitter feeling in my stomach, we are in a meeting about some internal problems in the company, the room is packed with several representatives of the teams, apparently there was a leak of o
MARIANELLAI walked several blocks until I found a small ice cream parlor on a corner and slipped into it, ordered a strawberry milkshake, and stuck my butt in the chair like a kid with problems?I don't know why I am so angry, everything between us is just an agreement and he kissed me, but we are adults and I should deal with it, but I am not here in an ice cream parlor drowning my problems in a milkshake like a teenager.As I deal with my stupid and unfounded anger, I catch myself thinking that it was unprofessional of me to leave like that, whether I want to or not I am still his secretary.My cell phone vibrates several times, I read his name on the screen, I think about not answering, but that would be a level of childishness I don't want to give him.Roman: Where are you?Roman: Marianella, you better show up before I find you.Roman: Answer the damn phone.Uh, he's angry, that gives me a little internal satisfaction, I let him get a little more angry and then I answer.Mariane
MARIANELLAI push my fisted hands against his incredibly hard chest in an attempt to push him away, his presence is too suffocating, intoxicating, and completely mesmerizing.He doesn't pull away and gives no indication that he will, in fact his body moves even closer to mine, causing me to be almost crushed against the wall, with no way out.I have no idea why this is attractive.“ Now tell me what you meant by that about my mother “ although it is an order, his tone of voice is very subtle, it almost doesn't sound like he is ordering you.“ Your mother gave me her consent papers for you to take over the entire inheritance, she did it as a vote of confidence," I say at once, because I want him to let me go, I fear for what will happen if he doesn't.“ You did it for me, huh? “ his face comes dangerously close to mine “ Tell me why, Nella, why did you risk your neck going to meet my mother behind my back?”My body receives an electrifying wave that sends messages and energies all over
MARIANELLAWhen my sister arrived home I was already alone, but with a smile on my face that was impossible to disguise, Esmeralda gave me a crooked look as if she knew the reason for my smile, and what the hell, I wouldn't hide it.“ Okay, go ahead and talk," she throws herself next to me on the sofa, tossing her purse onto the nearest armchair.“ We had an argument today, not really an argument, but something along those lines, I was very angry with him, and with you, by the way, for letting him in without asking me first," I accuse her, and she raises her hands in a sign of redemption”.“ First of all, he had a great point, and second, you don't seem at all sorry that he was here”.“ Anyway, I had lunch with his mother today, and I was discovered because I said I would have lunch with you, by the way, thank you very much for that," I accuse her again, "She gave me the papers he wanted so badly to take over the company, and I saw him with another woman today so I was sure he was dum
ROMANAt 33 I have achieved things that many people have died trying, I have control of the most prestigious multi-million dollar company in Seattle and in the countries where I have branches, I made my name when nobody believed in me, just as I made sure to eradicate the names of the people who stood in my way.Like my own father.He always told me that I would never be good enough, showed me this with his contempt as I grew up, so I decided to put self-pity aside and take a new approach, he watched me get the best awards in school projects, get the best grades in college, and little by little, saw me being much better than him at running the company, because I had one thing he didn't possess.The feeling of revenge, which made me want to climb up and outdo myself every second, in life I showed him that I could be better than him at everything, so when I turned 26 I managed to take 45% of the company's shares, which gave the old man a nice heart attack.But he wouldn't let it go chea
MARIANELLAThe next morning I am definitely detuned, my body is aching in a strangely familiar and satisfying way, my muscles are jelly-like as I slowly open my eyes and recognize Roman's room.It is then that I feel a weight around my belly, his arm is around me as he sleeps heavily on his stomach, I dare not move a muscle and risk waking him, he definitely looks tired after his performance yesterday.Dios mio and what a performance...He put me in positions that I thought were humanly impossible to do, when he said he wouldn't rush me, he meant every word, he took his sweet time in each of the positions and I just kept falling into his embrace, I was in his hands the way he promised.I think after that night I'm ruined for anyone else, no way back, there's no way anyone can get over the touch was imprinted on my body, it's even to blame for the burning in my ass.Carefully I pull his arm away from me and get out of bed, grab my purse and run to the bathroom to take care of my hygien
