Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Nine
Alethia almost brushed her teeth to bleed. She could feel her anger coming from every angle, and she was angry at everything. She raised her head to look into the bathroom mirror. Her eyes were crimson yet and she felt itchy in her eyeballs. Her hair was disheveled and she felt like she was losing her mind suit.She wasn't sure how and when she fell asleep, probably at midnight, but the pain at the back of her neck relayed that she didn't sleep in a proper position. Alethia spit out the paste in her mouth and rinsed it. She splashed water on her face and used the towel to press her face gently.She moved out of the bathroom and into her room, then walked to sit into the armchair which overlooked the neighborhood through her window. It was Saturday, or like Alethia remembered Olivia always saying, 'sat-your-day.' In Olivia's sense, it meant a work free day when you have to sit in and enjoy your weekend.Alethia sighed heavily. She looked out the window and wondered what in particular
Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Ten
Alethia woke by 2:00 p.m. with a kind of headache that seemed to hold her forehead captive. The last time she remembered having such a headache was when she'd drank for the first time -- courtesy of Olivia. Now, she wasn't sure if it was because the whiskey was cheap, or because alcohol wasn't her thing, just as she wasn't sure if the slap from her mom was the cause of this headache. She wasn't the type to sleep during the day anyway. So, maybe the slap brought some side effects after all.She took some time to think about the slap and the rundown of the situation that led to that. She reckoned she could have held her frustrations in because as her mom had said, It wasn't in Alethia's place to meddle in her mom's sexual life. Alethia sighed heavily. She thought about Ethan quickly and decided not to even think about him -- or so she thought. She couldn't stop thinking about what Ethan must think of her now. She'd made a fool of herself, and now she wasn't sure how to face him again w

Alethia came into the living room where Ethan and Olivia sat laughing over whatever conversation they were having before she came down from her room. They both stopped and looked at her in unison, both going stiff as if they had been discussing her before her presence.Olivia cleared her throat and sat right, smiling at Alethia. Alethia looked at her discerningly, then mouthed:"You conniving bitch…"Olivia winked at her and then turned towards Ethan. "So, Ethan, what do you think of Aleth as a stepdaughter?"Alethia's eyes suddenly pooped out of their sockets in surprise."Oliv…" Olivia shushed her with a finger in the air, not particularly looking at her. Olivia's scrutinizing eyes were on Ethan.Ethan breathed discomfortingly. He adjusted and drew back a bit to lessen the suffocation, but Olivia drew closer, still staring at him."Well…" he scratched his right brow and glimpsed at Alethia. Alethia swallowed hard -- somehow she had become interested in wanting to know what Ethan tho

"Hey, honey." Alethia swore she heard Ethan's voice in her head. A gentle and caressing hand cupped her cheek and felt the smoothness of her skin. She recognized the hand, and it wasn't Ethan's."Mom?""Good morning, dear," Emily said. She was smiling so wide as if she'd practiced it to warm up to Alethia that morning. Ethan had convinced her that she had to make an apology to Alethia that morning, and his idea of an apology with the highest probability of being accepted was the one made early in the morning."What are you doing here?" Alethia said. She strained as she rose from the bed and sat on it, then she drew her knees to her chest so that her blanket was crumpled within her arms. "How was your night?" Emily said, forcing the smile again. By now her lips were aching, so she let them relax a bit, then cleared her throat as she adjusted where she sat at the edge of the bed.Alethia squinted her eyes severally, then brushed a hand over it to keep her awake. She'd gone to bed late

Her lips had swollen, but the slight pain she was feeling in them seemed to be the essence of the pleasure. Ethan was a good kisser, she admitted. He knew when to thrust his tongue and how to make use of it so that she enjoyed every bit of the kiss. When he let go of her lips and began to kiss her neck, it suddenly occurred to Alethia that her mom was present. But it was strange that she felt okay about it as if Alethia was supposed to share Emily's man anyway.Alethia frowned. She tried to wrap her head around a single reason why her mom should be okay with her making out with Ethan in her presence, but the only thing she could place her hands on was that…Is she dreaming?Suddenly, the visuals began to cave in, and everything began to disappear, abandoning Alethia to deal with whatever consequences there would be if the scenario had been real. But it wasn't, and now she wasn't even sure of anything."Aleth?" Ethan called again. This time, Emily startled out of her trance and stared

He wanted to reach out to her to touch her face, caress her cheeks, and draw her close to himself. He knew she could only feel the passion that was swelling in him if only she was within the embrace of those hands that kept numb at his sides as if everything moral in the world was urging him to keep still.Ethan was just standing there, staring at her who'd channeled all her efforts into restraining herself from looking at him. He swallowed."Aleth?" He managed to say. Alethia sighed softly. She should have left him be while he was fast asleep, now he'd woken the lion and she had to work out a way to escape from its claws. She turned to look at him, holding herself in a way that suggested that she wasn't fazed by the unceasing awkwardness between them. But she only had to look at his face to lose her composure again."Have you had breakfast?" Ethan said. That seemed like a perfect escape, but Alethia was rather surprised by the sudden change of topic. She looked at him for a while bef
Blazing Inferno: Step Dad's Mine Chapter Fifteen
Alethia swallowed and braced herself. She'd read in one of those novels of hers, how after bolting in his feelings and denying her the moment, the boy shows up at her doorstep, and once she opens the door, he grabs her to himself and kisses her, vigorously as if to punish her lips for being tempting in the first place.Now, she couldn't remember the title of the novel, but she felt she was about to live the moment, and she couldn't be more ready for it. But while he was staring at Ethan's lips and expecting his head to approach, he was staring at how gaunt she looked."Are you okay?" He asked as if he knew she wasn't okay. She was way over her head, and again she had to drag herself out of the trance that had proven unceasing every time Ethan came close to her.She swallowed again and cleared her throat lightly, vying for composure."I brought you food," he said.Alethia looked down to see that he had a closed dish in a small tray and a glass of juice. "What's that?" Ethan. Smiled.

"What was that for?" Alethia yelled once they had gotten to her room and she'd sat Olivia down on her bed. She moved about worriedly, her heart still pounding from the moment downstairs. She wanted to run back to tell Ethan that Olivia had come up with the story, probably because she was out of her mind. She'd just been cheated on, so it made sense that Olivia was not in her right senses. But Alethia was too tensed to face him at the moment. The only thing she could think about was that, whatever hope she might have had with Ethan, Olivia had just kicked it out, without her consent."Calm down," Olivia said."Don't tell me to calm down," she said hotly. Then, "You and I know that I don't have a boyfriend, so why the hell did you have to lie about that? And to Ethan of all people."Olivia chortled. "You need to calm down, Aleth. At least, hear me out.""I think I've heard enough already.""No, you haven't. You're being paranoid right now, and that's not what you need.""I told you Ger
