After they got to the venue of the fundraiser, Josh parked the car and was getting ready to get out. He took off his seatbelt and just as he was about to open the door, Isabelle held him back by the shoulders."Wait up," She said softly."Wait up from what?" Josh asked.She pulled him over to her and wrapped her hands around his face. She pulled him in and claimed his lips in a long and possessive kiss, almost like a branding of ownership or a reminder that he was hers and no one else's. She kissed him deeply but softly, using her tongue to break the barrier of his lips and into his mouth. After she had had enough, she slowly pulled away and licked his lips one last time which left him dizzy and aroused."Now, we can go," She said mysteriously and got out of the car from her side.Josh still hadn't composed himself because that kiss had messed up his head. He shook himself back to reality and went outside the car. Isabelle was already walking into the event and he caught up to her an
Mr and Mrs Clinton were done with their speech and stepped off the stage so the fundraiser could begin. The MC took to the stage once more and asked the valets to start bringing in the items one after the other so they could start the auction. Mrs Helena sat back down on her seat and Janet leaned over to speak to her. “That was such a moving speech, mom. Absolutely beautiful,” Janet told her mother. “Don’t patronize me, Janet. You already knew the speech by heart so would you stop trying to suck up to me?” Her mother whispered to her. Janet moved away because once again her mother only saw her as scheming and overly ambitious. She didn’t understand why her parents treated her the way they did despite all she had done and was still doing for the company. She was frustrated but she had too much perseverance to stop now. She would take all the abuse and all the maltreatment but in the end, she would get her parent’s trust and confidence. “Where’s your brother?” Helena asked Janet.
About an hour later, the auction was over and the fundraiser was being rounded off. It was a very productive evening for Clinton Corp as the company raised over six million dollars for their charity and the media had broadcasted the whole thing which in turn brought them more publicity and potential new investors and partners.Everyone was saying their congratulations and goodbyes, rubbing elbows and giving thanks so Josh and Isabelle did the same. Mr and Mrs Clinton went around thanking their friends and associates for coming to the event and for their donations as well. Janet didn’t spend a single minute away from her father. She was constantly by his side while he spoke to these people and whenever she could, she would bring up the fact that she was the one who put the auction together so she would come off to them as smart and capable in hopes that her parents would start to feel the same.Isabelle on the other hand went over to Mr Hitchens, her immediate boss at the company to sp
It was late in the night and Josh decided to take Isabelle to his place to spend the night because his house was a lot closer from the venue of the fundraiser than her apartment was. She agreed to it and besides, they were still hot for each other and spending the night in the same bed wasn’t such a bad idea.Josh drove until he arrived at his house. He rode the vehicle into the parking spot and turned off the engine.“Madame, we have arrived,” He said to Isabelle with an Italian accent and it made her laugh.“Thank you, Don Joshua,” She played along.They both chuckled as they got out of the car. Josh walked from his side over to hers so they could head inside together but just as he was about to reach her, an unknown figure flew out of nowhere and snatched Isabelle off the ground and flew with her into the sky.“Isabelle…” Josh screamed after her as whatever took her disappeared out of the sky and was just gone, and so was she.It had moved so fast that Josh didn’t get to see what i
Josh was down on the ground and he was unconscious. What he had just gone through with Garin trying to get out of him had hurt him badly and he was knocked out because of it. As he lay on the ground motionless, a person walked up to him and rolled him over on his back.The person placed a hand on his chest and a bright light shined just before Josh opened his eyes, gasping back to consciousness. Josh was breathing heavily and was very disoriented so he couldn’t see quite clearly who was bent down in front of him.“Josh? Can you hear me?” The person asked him but Josh’s eyes couldn’t quite focus yet because he was seeing multiple warbled faces in front of him.“Come on, Josh. Focus on me…focus,” The person said again and gently slapped Josh on the face to get him focused.Josh’s vision finally found balance and he could see that the person beside him was Garin. He was in his human form and he had a smile on his face to welcome Josh back to reality.“There he is,” Garin said.“Garin? Is
Hannah and Norae flew up high into the sky while striking their weapons against each other’s. They went blow for blow, hit for hit, light against light, each determined to gain the edge against the other as sparks of lightning generated from the clangs their weapons made as they struck.Norae suddenly did a 360 swirl and swung her spear at Hannah’s chest but she was able to block against the hit. It blasted her across the sky and away from Norae who threw her spear at her. The spear came to a stop in front of Hannah and tried to stab her multiple times by itself. Norae was using her telekinesis to control the spear and attack Hannah with it. Hannah had to be quick and sharp as she blocked the floating spear. Norae called the weapon back to her hand and flew at Hannah again. They continued their dance, slicing and swiping at each other, a series of hits that seemed unlikely to yield a victor because of how equally matched they were. Norae held up her spear with both hands and transfo
The angels were still brawling it out with their fists, trading heavy punches hard enough to break down mountains. Norae was still attacking as relentlessly as ever, not holding back her punches and hitting Hannah with everything she had.Hannah fought back but whenever she did, her sister always had an answer for it. She would throw a punch but Norae would avoid it every time. It was almost like she could read Hannah’s mind and knew what she was going to do before she even did it. Hannah threw another punch but Norae grabbed her arm and threw her over her shoulder. She blasted after her in the sky and punched her on the body multiple times, blasting her across the eye of the desert. Hannah caught one of Norae’s fists and countered with an uppercut of her own. Both of them were bleeding as Norae had a busted lip and Hannah had a bruised eye. They held on to each other and traded blows. Their wings weren’t in use while they exchanged hits so they plummeted from the sky and were fallin
The next morning, Isabelle woke up on Josh’s bed but he was not there with her. He had already left for work a few hours ago because he had to see to some things at the office. She decided to sleep in because she was very tired after what happened to her last night so he left her a note on the nightstand before leaving.She rolled over on the bed and saw the note sitting right there. She reached for it and read its contents out loud, “Good morning, love. Sorry to not have woken up by your side but I had to go to the office. If you don’t have to go home, then I’d like you to stay there and wait for me because I don’t want to come and not find you there. Love you always, Josh,” Isabelle read.She smiled at the note and blushed at his words. She really didn’t have the intention of leaving before because she still had three days to prepare before she’d have to go back to work so she didn’t mind staying over at his place for another night. She got out of bed and went downstairs to Josh’s k
