Maya's Pov
I am in a deep, uncomfortable situation where my body feels as though it's no longer my own as I remain seated beside this specimen of a god, who's trying to tease me mercilessly. I chuckle nervously and try my best to shift away from him, but he holds me tightly against himself, showing no intention of letting go. "Can you try your best to remain still so we can go ahead with this lesson?" he whispers against my ear, continuing to trace his hand against my back in a slow, sensual manner. God, I can't help what I'm feeling. The sensation makes me close my eyes as I exhale, gasping slightly. I don't feel like myself anymore, and I'm completely undone with desire building between my legs, making it hard to think or breathe. I feel his warm breath on the side of my face as he plants soft kisses against my cheek, then his warm breath tickles my ear. "You like what you feel, don't you?" he asks, his voice thick, warm, and soft in my ears, making me tremble. I swallow hard and quickly struggle to move away from him, but he holds me tightly against himself, squeezing me possessively as he lifts his other hand to take hold of my jaw. He tilts my head to look at him, and I realize his face is only a few inches from mine. I can feel his warm breath against my face, and the feeling is just so... good Lord, I am not myself right now. I quickly clear my throat and struggle to look away from him so I can return my attention to the lesson, but he keeps me steady, tracing his thumb against my lips in a slow, sensual way. "Has anyone ever told you just how fucking gorgeous and hot you are?" Oh crap. I struggle once again to pull myself away from him. "Mr. Logan, please can we return to the lesson? I'm not sure this is the reason why you were employed," I say, and he chuckles before moving closer to me, holding me tighter as he traces his finger down from my jaw to my neck and then my chest. My body responds traitorously to his touch, and the sensations I'm feeling as he continues to slide his fingers down to my cleavage make me bite down hard on my bottom lip while shutting my eyes tight. Why is he torturing me like this? "Actually, I accepted this personal home tutorial lesson for two reasons," he purrs against my ears, prompting me to slowly open my eyes and look at him, his face only a few inches from mine. Curiosity suddenly takes better of me as I continue to look at him, urging him to continue. He smiles. "I joined this lesson because first of all, I personally want to groom you so you can improve your grades. I don't like the way your mom keeps punishing you every time you get a low score in your tests or exams. That's why I'm here, but then there's also another reason." I continue to look at him with my heart pounding extremely fast in my chest as he traces his eyes down to my nose and then to my lips. "I'm also here because I know about your little crush on me, and I know how badly you've craved to have me to yourself." Holy shit. I chuckle nervously and scoff before rolling my eyes and looking away from him, but he doesn't let me go. "This is just ridiculous. You don't know what's in my mind." He chuckles at my words. "Okay, if that's what you say, I won't stop you, but you're not giving me any sign to prove it because I'm literally holding you right now, and you're finding it hard to pull away." I find myself looking back at him sharply, and he smiles. He brings his face closer to mine until I feel his lips brush softly against mine, teasing me into kissing him. Oh good Lord, all I want right now is to feel his lips, and he's fucking tempting me with them. "Come on, Maya," he says, his voice low, deep, and husky-God, it's so fucking sexy. "I know you want me. I know you want me to continue this. I know you want me to go deeper. Hell, you want me to take off your clothes right now and send you to the skies, but I have no authority over your body, and I need your permission to go ahead with this. I'm not going to do anything until you give me permission, do you understand that?" I continue to look at him without saying anything, feeling totally dumbstruck. He chuckles and shakes his head. "Well then, I guess I'm going to make this easier for you," he says with a smile as he brings his face closer, his lips slightly touching mine. Good Lord, the energy that moves through my body at the contact is like an electric shock, jolting me out of my frozen position as I place my hands against his shoulders. I am gasping hard and panting, struggling with every willpower deep down within me to resist this, but it's just so uncontrollable and irresistible. I begin to wrap my arms tightly around his neck, trying to bring his face closer to mine, but he's strong enough to keep his lips distant, as if trying to avoid me. This jolts me out of my daze as I look up at him with shock. He smiles smoothly and shakes his head. "Like I said earlier, Maya, I seriously need your permission for this. It doesn't work this way. You can't just hold me so tight and pull me towards yourself as if you own me. I'm the one who has to make the decision here, but still, at the same time, I cannot just take over without your permission. I need your consent." I look at him with shock, completely bewildered. Isn't the fact that I'm pulling him to myself enough consent? Oh Jesus Lord, I don't even know what's wrong with me right now, and I don't know why I'm finding myself falling so easily to his seductive antics. "Okay, I think this is over, and we really need to get back to the work at hand right now, please," I beg, and struggle to break free. He's reluctant to let go, but after a few minutes, he allows me to move away, giving him enough space. He looks at me with a wide smile. "Stop trying to deny yourself the pleasure you crave so much, Maya." Fuck. "Please, with all due respect, just keep quiet, okay? I seriously do not want to talk about any of that right now." He smiles and nods before returning his attention to the textbooks in front of him. "Okay, great. I guess it's going to be strictly professional from now on then," he says with a smile and picks up the textbook before opening it. I look back at him with my body still vibrating with intense craving and desire for him as I bite my bottom lip, feeling a pang of regret. I don't even know what's wrong with me right now. I continue to look at him, admiring his tempting beautiful features while he flips through the book, licking his smooth pink lips sexily. Crap. "Okay, so with that being said, I guess we can get along with today's lesson, and well, like I said, I was going to introduce psychology to you." He slowly turns his head to look at me, then smiles. "Okay, I know you're actually trying to avoid me because you don't want me to do anything to you, but I can promise you that everything from now on is completely professional, and I'm not going to do anything you don't like. But it's not really going to help if you're that far away. You should know that, right? I can't keep shouting my lungs out all day." I look at him for a long moment as he smiles and returns his focus to the textbook. "Whenever you're ready, you can come close, and then we'll begin." He begins to flip through the textbook with rapt attention, putting on his reading glasses as if trying to figure something out. I'm left stuck gazing at his muscular body, at his huge veins protruding in different sections of his hands. God, he's a perfectly shaped and beautifully curved specimen. I find myself panting extremely hard as I bite my bottom lip, looking at him and struggling to catch my breath. My heartbeat is pounding excessively in my chest, and I can feel my eyelids fluttering with nothing but raw desire for this man seated a few meters away from me. All those erotic dreams and fantasies I usually have about him return to my mind, and I find myself grinding my teeth together crazily. Good Lord, isn't this just a beautiful, wonderful chance in front of me? I've always longed to have him for myself, have craved for every single damn thing about him. I've always felt it was totally impossible for him to ever look my way and consider me worth chasing after. And here he is right now, confessing himself willing and ready to give himself to me if only I give him my consent. Fuck, this is really, really crazy. The fact that we're going to be here for an entire month, every evening at the exact time when nobody's going to be home, including my mom and my brother, is really, really, really making it so much harder than ever to just fucking resist. He slowly turns his head to look at me, and from the way he smiles, it feels as if he probably knows whatever is going on deep down within me. "Are you okay, Maya? You're sweating intensely, and you look so pale. Is there anything you want to talk to me about?" I quickly shake my head and smile nervously at him before turning around, but then I suddenly lose control of myself the moment I feel him move closer and pull me swiftly to himself, squeezing hard against me. Oh crap, there goes my control. He holds me tightly against himself, bringing his face extremely close to mine. "I can see the desire in your eyes, Maya. Don't fight it," he whispers against my lips and brings his head down, planting sweet kisses all over my neck and then moving his tongue slowly towards my chest. Fuck. At that point, I finally lose it. "Oh please, I give you my consent to do whatever you wish," I whisper against his lips and observe the dark smile that crosses his expression. "Oh, as you wish, my lady," he says with a husky, deep, sexy voice as he pulls me over, forcing me to straddle him. Then he pulls down the thin strap of my singlet, revealing my breasts to him. "Well, isn't this just great? I fucking love what I see," he says and buries his face against my breast, sucking on each nipple and squeezing furiously hard as I find myself moaning with his strong arousal pressing against my thighs. Fuck.Maya's POVI adjusted my shoulders a bit square, gritting determination into my voice. "I'm fine. The problem is, my mom. I don't think she'll let me go if she's not absolutely sure I'm all right. But don't worry, I'll figure out how to get around her."Andrew sighed and glanced down at his phone. "My friend isn't answering my call. I'm going over there so I can tell him about the yacht in person.""I'll go with you," Regan offered on impulse."I want to go too," Theresa said, then paused, looking at me. "But Maya can't stay home alone."Regan shook his head again. "Then I'll stay with Maya if you do plan to leave."Andrew smiled reassuringly at me. "I'll be right back, okay?"Theresa touched my shoulder lightly, her tone teasing but restrained. "Take care of my best friend when I'm not around," she said to Regan.Regan nodded, his gaze for an instant met hers. "Don't worry. I'll take care of her."And that was it, Theresa and Andrew were both gone, with only the two of us- me and Reg
Maya's POVThe sound of faint voices drifted up from the stairs, muffled but growing clearer. Theresa was talking to someone. Whoever it was, their arrival bought me more time. Time to decide whether to keep burying the secret or risk pulling it out into the open.I pressed a hand against my chest, trying to slow my heartbeat. For now, maybe silence was safer. For now, maybe the truth could wait.Minutes later, Theresa returned to the room, but she wasn't alone, I could hear more than one foot steps from my room.I quickly took my phone and pretended to scroll on my phone.The door opened, and their voices carried in before I even looked up.“Hey, Maya,” Andrew said warmly, holding up a small bag. “I brought snacks.”“And I,” Regan added with a small grin, “brought fruits. Healthy balance.”I smiled, genuinely touched. “Thank you, both of you.” I sat up straighter. “How are you guys doing?”Andrew dropped the bag on the table, pulled out a chair, and sat down with that relaxed way
Maya's POVLater, Theresa stepped out of the bathroom wearing a white towel wrapped around her waist. "Come on, Maya, you rest while they are coming."I trailed behind her, still dressing, and unfolding my body lotions.Theresa washed herself, and started getting dressed beside me. "You know," she said softly, "I truly do care what is best for you, Maya."I looked her in the eye, my voice soft. "I know. I just wish sometimes you'd let me make that choice."She smiled a little before she reached out and grasped my hand. "Perhaps I should. But let's just wait and see what occurs at the moment."I nodded slightly.Once I had gotten dressed, I sat down on the bed and regarded Theresa."If they come, just have them come up," I said to her. "I don't want to have to strain myself to go down again."She nodded readily. "I don't think they'll mind that at all."There was a knock at the door downstairs immediately."I'll get it," she said, dashing off.In less than a minute, she was back wit
Maya's POVI crossed my arms and glared at Theresa."Why did you tell them I was sick, Theresa, without even consulting me?" I asked, my voice sharper than I intended to employ.Theresa, half lying against the edge of the bed, did not even flinch. "There wasn't anything I could do," she answered practically, as if the question had already been decided before I spoke. "Besides, I thought you could use their company too."I was infuriated by her lack of reaction. I resented it when she responded as if she knew me better than I knew myself."And at what hour are they going to arrive?" I demanded, at least attempting to have some idea I could get my head around.She shook her head. "They did not state. I don't know whether they'll be arriving together or separately either."I took a slow breath, attempting not to let my rage get the better of me. "Alright. No problem," I muttered, although in my mind it was a long way from 'no problem'.Theresa gazed at me for a moment, considering whet
Maya's POVFor an instant, I thought I would answer. I could just tell him I was fine. One-minute call. That would not be hurting anybody, would it?But then I looked up to notice Theresa walk into the room, and sit on the edge of my bed, scrolling through her phone. I was not going to be able to discuss him with her present. I hadn't even told her about him. I didn't know if I was ready yet.I let the phone ring until it died, then quickly flipped it over into airplane mode and shoved it under my pillow. Out of sight. Out of mind."You're not answering that?" she asked, glancing over at me."Wrong number," I fibbed hastily.She rolled her eyes but did not ask again. "I'm going to shower," she said instead, standing up and taking off her top.I sat beside the bed, watching her go into the bathroom. The door clicked shut and a minute or so afterwards I heard the water running. There was silence in the room that was just a tad too acute.It was a minute before Mom knocked on the door
Maya's POVAs we descended the stairs, I caught a small sense of pride that we had arrived.The girl smiled when we were exiting her room, and I noticed that while not fully well, having us there gave her something to hold on to.Mom and the girl's mom stood up at the same time when we walked downstairs."Thank you again," the woman said to Mom. "It's a big deal that you brought them.".Mom smiled with warmth. "No need to thank us. We just wanted to show some support.""We'll come back again soon," I said, and Theresa nodded next to me."Yah, we'll check on her. We gave our word."The woman escorted us to the door, still appearing genuinely appreciative.When we got into the vehicle and Mom turned the key in the ignition, the orange color of the sunset deepened across the sky like a cozy blanket.I rested back into the seat and sighed, not a tired sigh, but happiness."That lady is just sweet," Mom said, fiddling with the mirror. "You can just tell she brought that girl up right.""Sh
