LOGINChapter 29: The Underlying Desire: Revenge, Lust, Meaning.
STELLA I lost my mind again—for the same man I'd stayed away from, for two good months. It looked like it was simple but God knew it was the hardest thing for me. Even as I had stayed away, to protect my sanity and face, I had spent each day digging up a thousand and one reasons not to give him attention. At the guesthouse, I hadn't toChapter 34: Six Rounds Of FireRHYS“Rhys" She breathed my name out of her lips as soon as our lips pulled apart. God. Her voice twined its way to my control system. I gently placed her on the bed, one hand on her waist and the other crawling under her sweatshirt. “I know we both want it so much. I won't hold back today”Fuck it. It was hard to free my mind from the urge to fuck her like a beast, and watch her take me inside her. All of me. I yanked her panties off and helped her pull her legs out of them. “Damn it, baby. Look how much she knows, Daddy," I leaned in to kiss her on her wet pussy. She bit back her moans, her fingers wrapped around my hair like she could predict my next move. I caressed her swollen clit slowly, letting the signal rush to every part of her. I wanted to explore her body fully, in ways no one had ever done. “What's the highest number of times you've orgasmed in a row?" I asked, rubbing my face all over her pussy. She was freaking clean underneath. H
Chapter 32STELLA I knew I shouldn't have dared him. But I was ready to push almost every limits, just to put myself to test. I'd barely said everything I had deep down. A lot was still bottled up inside of me but as my eyes met his, I could see the darkness and venom in his beautifully carved eyes. His eyes darkened and glistened in an unidentifiable expression. “You never listen, Blaze." He rasped with a little bit of roughness in his tone as he leaned closer to where I sat. “You heard me, Rhys. Dri—" I swallowed it. His eyes fixed on me for too long, as if he was waiting for an exact moment to strike. “I can tolerate everything but not when it comes to you, Blaze." His palm grazed my thighs slowly. My skin reacted to his soft touch. My lips parted slightly and I realized how fast the control was slipping out of my palm. "Don't call yourself stupid before me.” His eyes pressed on mine before he audaciously slid those long fingers of his beneath my dress. "RHYS—”It was har
Chapter 31: “No one touches what is mine" RHYS.A few words with Marcus weren't enough. I begged my mind to stay composed, and not carve a punch mark in his face.“You know one thing I hate?" Fucking nutjob! He still stood nonchalantly. I grabbed his shoulder, my thumb finding the end of his collarbone. “Now, that's how you behave around me. I used to be D’Ace for a reason, you fucker!”I couldn't help it. Seeing him felt like an extra charge to everything I'd ever thought about an evil man like him. "Plea—”"Now, answer my question." I barked at him. " Want to know what I hate the most?" I questioned without patience. “Wh—what?" His knees fell to the ground. I applied more force on my thumb, directing more energy on that spot till he cried loudly. Yeah! That was what I wanted. The cry that tore from his throat was raw, painful, and animal. “Rhys… pl—”I pressed ha
Chapter 30: Ruling The Lion's Den STELLA I walked into my father’s office after wrestling with the question of whether he even deserved my time. I knew the answer, yet I pushed myself to see him. Rhys had tried to talk me out of it after I told him about Marcus's invitation but I insisted. I wanted to see him and listen to the lies he'd tell again. Every step down the corridor to his office felt heavier than the last. Heads turned. Conversations dipped into whispers. I caught fragments of my name floating through the air like smoke. His secretary looked up as I passed, eyes wide, lips parting as if she wanted to stop me. She didn’t. Good. Because nothing would have stopped me. My fingers curled around the handle. The metal felt cold… almost warning. I pushed the door open. He came into view, dropp
Chapter 29: The Underlying Desire: Revenge, Lust, Meaning. STELLA I lost my mind again—for the same man I'd stayed away from, for two good months. It looked like it was simple but God knew it was the hardest thing for me. Even as I had stayed away, to protect my sanity and face, I had spent each day digging up a thousand and one reasons not to give him attention. At the guesthouse, I hadn't told him when Sophia came banging on the door, asking what was between us. She was his girlfriend but I'd smirked at her that day. “Nothing. What kind of girlfriend would suspect her boyfriend is cheating?" I hated her. But I hated him even more, for the things he kept away from me. Right as soon as I returned from the gym yesterday, I headed for a shower but before the water ran, my phone rang. I carefully stepped out of the bat
Chapter 28 :A Sucker For You RHYS The next day was a bright Saturday. I hadn't slept all night, I stayed up. She wouldn't leave my mind, even as I tried to stroll around my house. My mind was crowded with thoughts— but I had hope. Somehow, I had realized I couldn't take forever to make amends. She still had me in mind. I watched her jog out of the guesthouse in yoga pants and a sports bra. She was probably headed to the gym. I didn't think twice before dashing out of my compound in a gym wear and headed to the same gym down the street. It was an estate gym, obviously filled with many celebrities, politicians and people of high class who loved like normals among those of their kind. My stomach twisted at the thought of her being exposed to those kind of people. At a freaking gym. I jogged into the gym, few minutes after she jogged in. In my fiv
Chapter 23: A Wish STELLA Three months ago, a quit notice had been served to all tenants of our residence and this morning, a quit reminder had been shared again. I glared at the paper in my hand. I had been searching for a
Chapter 22: “For you, I'd lose everything." RHYS Blaze. That name suited her in every way a man could think of. I walked side by side with her till we got to the apartment block. We were still neighbours. “Are you good, Blaze?" I asked her, my hand finding her shoulder gently as I guided her in
Chapter 20: An Open Eye Stabbed STELLAI didn’t feel like myself, even as Rhys explained himself.He practically begged me to eat the food he’d made, and I did, but even while he tried to joke or talk about random things, nothing held my attention.
Chapter 19: “Fate, You Say?" ~STELLA~ My ex-husband’s half-brother was the neighbour who'd moved in beside me. It was a whole lot to deal with. Since yesterday morning, I'd tried everything possible to avoid him. Being indoors all day was the eas
