Aria's POV

They smiled and walked off with the tray in front of me leaving it on the table.

I closed my eyes to the food and drink that remained untouched and my stomach ached. Who were they? And more to the point--who is their boss?

Why should a man get me breakfast in a hotel that I do not even recall having entered?

Then I had barely time to put it together when my phone went off against the nightstand. I grabbed it like a lifeline.

Caller ID: Maya.

Oh, thank God.

"Aria!" her voice came out thin and anxious and most alert. "Where the hell are you? I said go out and have fun, not to run away and give me a fucking heart attack!

I shut my eyes and sighed. "I... I said, I am somewhere in a hotel, hardly knowing what my voice was.

"What?" She paused. "Wait, are you okay?"

I hesitated. I curled my fingers in the sheets of the hotel and I could see fragments of the previous night in my mind lips touching my lips, the slight flavor of tequila, warm skin against my skin, fingers in my ha

    Aria's POV.He positioned himself between my legs, and in one sharp movement was inside me. He let out a low growl.It wasn't slow or sweet.It was damp, dirty, altogether and all. It was to be forbidden but God! What sweet this forbidden fruit was."Ahh, what you do to me?" he replied and continued with the pumping and I moaned and moaned.I was about to get to my peak when he tossed me up, with ass on the wall, and never the slightest suggestion of me halting or halting. His strokes were quicker, quicker and my tits were going up and down.Ahh... ahh... sigh. The emotion I was seeking swept over me like water washing away sin and I clamped my walls around him before I heard him grunt and he spilled - filled me up with him before falling to my side both our bodies shining with sweat.You were not supposed to have done that, he said.I did not answer, I just laughed, I had not yet lost consciousness of myself, I was still.The pale light of the bedroom diffused the shadows on the wall

    Aria's POV I started to think about the past several months: the project, the anniversary, the image of Michael and Milan in bed, the part of the prize money I could have won and my resignation thereafter. All these happened in my mind in a graphic manner. The first thing that crossed my mind was three words Well , fuck it! I was not going to give liberty to some dumb jerk, who I had bestowed my entire life to make it a total mess. I had loved him with everything I had but he by no means deserved it and he certainly does not merit my tears. This ... I wanted it, I wanted this handsome gorgeous man with a sex appeal that caused ladies scream “Fuck me” when they saw him. I had no idea how I got the balls but I grabbed him by the tie and said to him, Just how far do you suppose you can go? And before I smash my lips on his. The kiss came to him as a shock. I knew by the manner in which he stiffened at first, but he quickly came to himself and began to control the kiss. I could fe

    It's been two days since I walked out of Aureline Technologies. My apartment was silent—very silent, that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. Half-empty cups sat on my table; my laptop, which used to be my companion, now lay closed and untouched. The curtains had remained unopened for days. I sat on my couch, my knees drawn to my chest, staring blankly at the muted television screen. A replay of the Aureline Tech Innovation Award flashed across the screen. A smiling Michael and Milan accepting the trophy I helped earn made my heart clench. "Anything I see or do reminds me of my miserable past." Because that wasn't what was being played on the screen; it was my favorite TV show, but that was what I saw anytime I looked at it. So, I turned off the TV. Just then, my sister's voice broke through the silence. Maya: "Sis… honestly, you can't keep wasting your tears on people who clearly don't deserve you," she said with her hands placed on her hips. Aria: “ It's just …
