After everything that happened, he goes and says something like that.

His mega-watt smiles after his confession didn’t go away for the rest of the night. If anything, I was the only one who was stiff and awkward. Why didn’t I say it back? Why did I freeze?

“Now that that’s out of the way, are we ready to get back to work?” he asked in an attempt to unfreeze me. He patted my arm as I remained at a loss for words.

He slowly scooted away but fixed his gaze on me, careful that he might scare me away. It surprised me, but he seemed to understand the situation perfectly.

“I’m going to handle some legal matters tomorrow with the lawyers,” he stated. Back to business, as if he didn’t drop a bomb on me just now.

I didn’t get a wink of sleep that night. I tossed and turned, replaying the events of the day.

A lamp clicked at the other side of the massive hotel room and the yellow dim light bathed the corner. I peeked at his side profile from my own bed. It seemed that he wasn’t getting any

  • Craving Mr. Cane   Twisted Revenge

    “It’s really you. Fuck.” It just dawned on Mr. Therapist that he’s in the hands of Olivia’s greatest love. Somehow, I stood taller and puffed out my chest. He couldn’t see me smiling, but I bet he could hear it in my voice. “Stay here. We’re going to have some fun.” I promised him as I crept up the stairs. I quickened my steps because I just had an exciting idea. I went to my garage, got the garden hose and a few pliers. He was pleading as he heard my steps coming back to him. I was practically vibrating with anticipation of what’s to come. I installed the hose to the nearest faucet. My basement is equipped exactly for this. It’s my haven. “What… what’s happening?” He could not hide his fear; his voice was wavering. And when those first few drops of ice-cold water hit his naked body, I couldn’t contain myself. This was too much fun. I let the water wash away all the filth he had accumulated over the past few days. And when he was shivering from the cold and squicky clean, I got out

  • Craving Mr. Cane   Ghost

    They didn’t know. No one knew. I was careful. Silent as a ghost. Olivia and that bastard didn’t have a single clue. I was watching them. The moment I got out, I planned everything. It was cathartic, doing what I was meant to do. Watching over her, looking after her. He was careless at times; he didn’t know what he was doing. He tried to figure it out, and almost saved her, even. But it wasn’t enough. He wasn’t enough. For her, for what she deserves. He’s nothing. Compared to me, he’s nothing. I watched her downfall. I loved every minute of it. She showed her true self, the real her. The one that’s most connected to me. She gave in to her cravings; she didn’t let his control consume her. She was her own self; she let her desires reign free. She didn’t give a damn about him, and that’s how I knew he was nothing to her as well. Even if it was because of some retard therapist, I got to see the real Olivia. The one I knew was just lurking deep inside. I followed her when he wasn’t arou

  • Craving Mr. Cane   Panther

    My legs felt like jelly. We passed by Hailey. If my brain wasn’t melted by what he did to me in that shower, I would have been embarrassed by the awkward situation, but since I’m properly fucked out, none of that mattered. Meanwhile, Austin was lounging. He was lounging and actually not even covering his smug face when we got back to his office. At least Hailey had the decency to give us a moment before they proceeded to a meeting. “Oh my god, you’re a child! Get up, go!” I almost slapped his shoulder, wanting to slap the smirk off his mouth instead, but I’m guessing that would be too much since his lawyer was just outside the door. He lazily got up and adjusted himself. He was still hard. He got a drink. And when it came time to talk to his lawyer, the mood changed. He wanted me there. He wanted to take on whatever it was together. And when Hailey laid out all the cards, her new intel, basically an iron-clad strategy for everything, Austin was quiet. Calculated. He dismissed her

  • Craving Mr. Cane   Playing Games

    “We can’t. I mean, not here.” I faltered… already thinking about the possibilities. But then he grabbed my waist, and all thoughts fled from my muddled mind. His sweaty body was up close. Muscles bulging and glistening, I swallowed hard. Forcing my eyes to leave the tantalizing view. “Come on,” he urged. “Hailey… Hailey’s here. Your lawyer’s waiting for you,” my voice was weak. His appointment is the farthest thing from my mind.“Mhmm… Okay.” His hand on my lower back pushed me towards him so that I was pressed up against him. From his chest to my thigh, he kept our bodies oh so close that I could feel him. I could feel everything. “I’m serious, she’s here. She’s waiting, Austin,” I tried again. But my throat was dry. “She’s here to help you… I mean,” I stuttered once I felt his other hand untuck my blouse. “Austin, people might come in here.” “They know better than to interrupt me…” his hand tugged my top loose while the other, I just noticed, was inching closer to my thigh, ta

  • Craving Mr. Cane   Tilted

    I found him hunched over one of those monstrous gym machines. Working up a sweat, almost hyper ventilating as he pushed his body. The poor guy isn’t letting up. He hasn’t noticed me when he next hopped onto a treadmill. Austin ran and ran. He ran like someone was out to get him. I watched him as he pushed and pushed his legs, like if he stopped something bad might happen. My stomach bottomed out. He doesn’t deserve what his family has done to him. What they’re planning to do. “Love…” I whispered. “Are you… are you okay?”He looked up and the pained expression on his face imprinted on my brain. I hadn’t seen him like this in a long while, not since I fucked up. I wanted to reach out and remove all his worries. So I did. He stopped running but his head remained hung low. I wasn’t sure if it’s sweat or those are tears. But his heavy breathing indicated that it could be either. Austin doesn’t cry. He doesn’t show emotions. Not until now. Not until his whole world is crumbling around

  • Craving Mr. Cane   The Cavalry

    It was the clicking of heels. Then the swaying of her hair. And that perfume. My head swiveled as soon as Attorney Hailey Sinclair entered the corridor. There’s no other word for it. She strutted. I couldn’t believe it, she’s the all-business no fun type but right here and right now? The girl is in a good mood. Dare I say, she seems… upbeat?Totally uncalled for and not what we need as of the moment but it surely did cut the tension that’s choking both Austin and I lately. “The cavalry has arrived,” she announced. She aimed her attention at me and smirked. “Okaaay? Does he know you’re arriving? Any appointments?” I asked. She smiled. “We haven’t met properly yet, right?”“Um, yeah. Sorry, I was kinda loopy the last time.” I almost tilted my head in shame. Remembering the time I was so out of it. “I was face planting the floor.” I whispered, nonetheless. “I noticed,” she nodded. I wanted the floor to swallow me whole. “Hey, hey… no worries, okay? We all have our bad days. I mean,
