Did he seriously think I would fall at his feet like one of his many followers?
“Looks like I’m going to be the first one then.” I hide my smile with the coffee mug, watching him. Nana is just watching the whole interaction with amusement written all over her face.“We will see about that,” Tay says, and place the coffee mug on the kitchen counter. “What do you mean by that?” I ask, a little scared of what he might do to make me swallow my words.“Nana,” he nods at her and walks out without answering my question.“What did he mean by that?” I ask, Nana. “Don’t worry too much about it. Help me set up the dinner table; the food will be ready in thirty minutes.” I place the coffee mug on the kitchen counter, grab the plates, and walk to the dinner table.Dinner goes pretty quickly with just the two of us, and after that, I retire to my room.The week passed by as a blur. I haven’t gone home yet, and I don’t even want to go back, although I miss Nora terribly. I got to know the brothers more; we spend most of the time doing puzzles.I enjoyed spending time with them. Tay is a wonderful cook. You would swear that he went to culinary school. Ria came to visit Tay, but he ignored her the whole day, using work as an excuse. Andrew doesn’t like her so much, so he also made work as an excuse.The brothers are amazing. The love they have for each other is incredible.“Morning,” Nana says, walking to the fridge. I’m in my gym gear and my hair is up in a messy bun.“Morning Nana and see you,” she chuckles, and I walk to the front door. I have been going for runs during the past week. I inhale the fresh air and start running.When I get back from my run, I find the brothers eating breakfast.“Did I tell you, you look sexy when you are all sweaty? Sister-in-law,” Nate compliments and takes a bit of his toast, and I let out a ch
My back is pressed against Tay’s hard build-up chest, his arms wrapped around my torso — I can feel his breath against my neck. After the nightmare I had, he hasn’t left my side. He held me in his arms like I would vanish if he let go. He kept on playing with my hair to calm me down and I gave in to his touch. It was comforting. Never in my life have I ever felt safe like I do right now.I try to move, but his grip tightens. He nuzzles his nose in my hair, and chills run down my spine.“Go to sleep, love,” he whispers in my ear, and Goosebumps cover my body within seconds. I let out a breath and closed my eyes.“I will be here when you wake up.” he kisses me at the back of my head and my eyes burn to sleep.****I open my eyes to find a peaceful, beautiful face asleep. Tay looks handsome sleeping; his hair is messy, covering his angelic face. I push the hair from his face and admire his features for a few seconds. I get out of his grip without waking him up and walk to the bathro
The moment Tay’s lips connect with mine, I freeze. I let him kiss me; I don’t respond, even though I want to kiss him back. I don’t want to open something that will only lead me to disappointment. He pulls me even closer, desperate. His hands cup my face, kissing me like I’m going to slip through his fingers. The kiss is full of pain and is rough. He desperately wants me to respond to his kiss, but I can’t even though my body begs me to. The ecstasy that runs through just from his touch is something to me, and it scares the hell out of me that my body responds to his touch.He breaks the kiss when I don’t respond and rests his forehead on mine, eyes closed. He brushes his nose with mine, and I shut my eyes to control my emotions.“Sorry.” he whispers. His breath sends chills up and down my spine.“It’s okay.” I say, and open my eyes to meet his lustful brown ones. He pulls away.The rest of the night goes by quickly, and now it was time to hit home. Andrew did very well; all his ar
I don’t know how long I have been sobbing against Tay’s chest, but one thing I know for sure is that his shirt is soaked. For a moment I wished I was dead, so I couldn’t relive this moment. I finally stop crying and move away from him. One thing I hate is crying in front of people.“Are you okay?” Tay asks with a soft voice.“Yeah, I just need to shower and go to sleep.” “Okay, um… just call me if you need anything.” he says and I nod. He walks out, and I strip out of my wet clothes, take a quick warm shower, and wrap my wet body in a towel.I dress up in my dark blue silk pajamas and walk out of the bathroom. Tay is not in the room, so I get under the sheets and close my eyes.After a while, I hear a door opening and footsteps walking towards the bed. I keep my eyes closed and I know by the scent that fills my nostrils; it’s Tay. He gets under the duvet and pulls me closer to his hard, naked chest and buries his nose in my hair. Later, he lets out a deep breath and pulls me eve
The next day in Tay’s car, I look out of the window as he drives to our destination. Last night he said that he wanted to show me something today.I look over at Tay, and his eyes are focused on the road. He is wearing blue denim jeans, a blue t-shirt, and a black jacket. He turns his head and smiles at me. I return it and look at my surroundings. I have never been to this side of neighborhood before. We pass some buildings and after a while, the car stops.“Come on.” Tay says, and we climb out of his car. He grabs my hand as we make our way towards the building; I look over at our entangled fingers and let out a deep breath. My heart is racing fast. Why am I so afraid? Why can’t I be a normal girl with no demons?The building feels like home, kids are running around, women sitting in a circle. What is this place? We enter an office; a man in his mid-forties is going through some papers.“Hey, Vince?” The man looks up and forms a smile when he sees Tay.“Tay, it’s so good to see
Future’s apartment is a two-bedroom one. The kitchen is small with a kitchen island and three stools around it. Future and I sit on the creamy couch with our glasses of orange juice. Nate and Andrew went to get food since none of us were up for cooking. In my case, I don’t know how to.“So, about you and Andrew?” I ask, trying to break the silence. No one has uttered a single word about what happened ever since we left the mansion.“Nothing is going on between us,” Future says and brings the glass to her mouth.“What happened between you two?” I pry. She sighs and places the glass on the coffee table.“I loved him with all of my heart, I still do. We were together for a long time. We were once close, Nate, Andrew, Tay, and E…” she clears her throat and continues.“One night happened, and everything went downhill. We broke up, and I got a scholarship to study in London, as I told you the other day. I broke any connection that had to do with the Payne brothers. I will be lying if I
I couldn’t believe what was happening. Tay is kissing me, and this time, I was kissing him back. He pulls me even closer, as if there was a gap between us. My hands move up to his neck, and I earn a moan from him. I haven’t realized that his breath smells like spearmint. I guess I was busy overthinking about the kiss the other day that I missed it. He squeezes my bottoms and I moan and he slips his tongue in. His tongue moves along with mine, and the feeling is indescribable. I tug the roots of his hair. “Olivia,” My name comes out as a moan. I bite his lower lip and his hands move up my torso. Our lips move in synchronization like they were made for each other. I’m running out of breath, but I don’t want to break the kiss yet. The sparks that are running through my body are incredible; I have felt nothing like this! If a kiss feels like this, then — “Oh, God! Please, not on the kitchen counter. I cook there!” Nana's sweet, horrified voice says from behind. I break the kiss and bu
Tay stands behind me as he places feather-like kisses on my olive skin, his fingers slowly moving up my naked thighs. My breath catches in my throat as he sucks my ear lobe sending me to pure bliss.“You are so fucking beautiful,” he says against my skin and a shiver runs down my spine.“I will give you nothing but pleasure love, I will show your body a different feeling other than pain,” he promises.“Lift up your arms for me,” I oblige and he pulls up my dress; leaving me in just my panties. He moves my hair to the other side and sucks my shoulder. I already feel him being hard on. His hand travels down the valley of my breasts and stops just above my panties. He softly touches my shoulder-blade, and I shut my eyes, moaning. His hands cup my breasts and I press my hands around my body. “Why did you stop?” I ask, panting.“So, I can do this,” he says and drops to his knees. He pulls my panties down and runs his hand up to my center, but plays around it. I tremble in eager antic
