LOGIN“We shouldn’t be doing this,” Alex suddenly said.
Alicia rolled her eyes.
“You are going to start having second thoughts when we’ve already reached this stage?”
“I didn’t think it would get this far and this is not the time for this. My warehouse…”
"Shhh!" she said, placing her finger on his lips to silence him.
She would not have him thinking about the present tensions and problems.
So she kissed him again.
He made an effort to fight off her kiss, but he eventually gave in. As she lay on the bed, he hunched over her and planted a deeper kiss on her neck and lips.
They kissed more deeply as his hand quickly moved to her waist and pulled her towards his body.
As their tongues entwined and played games in each other’s mouths, Alicia relished the feeling that shot through her veins.
She could feel the slow dampness between her thighs and the tingling in her lower body.
She touched his lap and shifted to the erect rod between his legs. She reached to grab it, but he held her hand, stopping her.
“Don’t. You’ll regret it.”
“I won’t.”
“Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
But Alicia laughed, fluttering her eyes seductively as she raised her leg to brush against his hard crotch.
“Hmmm,” he moaned, “Alicia.”
She did it again, this time setting her foot atop it and pressing it down to excite him more.
He moaned, his face flushing red as he tried to keep his senses. But Alicia was relentless and kept teasing him.
He caught her leg.
“Stop it.”
She giggled, taking her leg off his hand and then spreading her legs apart to give him her beautiful view.
Alex stared between her legs, his breath quickening as he felt desire and crazy attraction consume him. He wanted her so bad.
“Don’t hold back,” she urged.
He came a little closer, and she immediately wrapped her hands around his shoulders, drawing him to her chest and kissing his neck.
He smelt good, this warm, raw masculine smell that she loved.
She opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, licking his ear.
“Argh!” She exclaimed as Alex pushed her down.
She felt his fingers on her thigh, slowly moving upwards. She smiled in satisfaction. His fingers were between her legs, preparing her.
She moaned.
He pressed down harder, making her moan loudly. He hit her G-spot making her tremble.
He laughed softly when she moaned.
"I didn't know you were that sensitive," he teased.
He soon stopped and took his fingers out. His hands grabbed her thighs pushing himself forward and making her thighs wrap around his waist.
His hardness looked so hard that it was threatening to tear his trousers. Alicia giggled.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" she asked, her eyes on it.
He unzipped his trousers.
He took off his trousers, and she gasped.
“W—what? Why are you so big?”
“Warned you before didn't I? Don’t you chicken out now,” he said.
“Who said I was?” She leaned towards him, his big girth standing upright, and yanked the pants off her waist, revealing her wet and ready self.
He then pushed himself and entered her.
She grunted.
She was right. He was huge. He stretched her and it felt both painful and good.
She felt his warm strong hand on her face the next moment.
“Are you okay? Should I continue?”
“You’re too big! Why are you so big?! Urgh!”
“Should I take it out? Is it too painful?”
Alicia wrapped her legs tightly around his waist, blushing.
“Don’t you dare take it out.”
He smirked.
“Gladly.”
He started to move.
The first stroke was gentle, a teaser of what was to come. And then he gradually increased the pace and started going faster and faster and harder!
Alicia screamed and moaned as he fucked her, her hands gripping his bed sheets as her head exploded withso much pleasure.
“Tell me to stop if it’s too much! Urgh! You’re tight!” he said.
“No! Go faster! Faster! Harder please!”
She wrapped her hands around his shoulders, enabling him to enter deeper into her.
His following thrusts were faster and rougher. But she loved it, her eyes rolling to the back of her head from the crazy pleasure. She moaned loudly.
"Do you like it?" he asked in between thrusts.
"Yes! Yes!"
"Do you like it, Alicia?" he said softly, his voice like music in her ears.
“Yes! Don’t stop! Urgh!”
They fucked all night, the sheets a witness to the immense passion. When they stopped, they went iron again, doing so many rounds she lost count of them.
They both reached the peak of pleasure and orgasm, their bodies wrapped lovingly around each other.
After that, they rested in each other's arms, panting heavily, giggling, trying to recover from the unexplainable pleasure they had just experienced.
………
Later that night Alicia woke up. Alex was still fast asleep.
She watched his sleeping face, smiling. He was so handsome.
When he woke up, he smiled at her.
“Good morning love.”
She knocked his nose playfully.
“Hey!”
“Who are you calling love? When you fucked me so mercilessly last night?”
He laughed and sat up, kissing her.
“But you enjoyed it right?”
“Yes I did,” she admitted.
They were silent for a while and then he said;
“Thank you, Alicia, for yesterday. For coming to see me. For being here.”
“It’s okay.”
“No it’s not. Before today no one ever came to look for me when I had my episodes. But you did. And I really appreciate it.”
She smiled in response. Then Alex took her and stared into his eyes.
“Alicia? Will you be my girlfriend?”
She blushed. She couldn’t believe the man she had taken as her enemy was asking that now. And why she herself was going ahead to say;
“Yes, I will be your girlfriend.”
He smiled and hugged her. She hugged him back. And that was the beginning of their sizzling romance.
....
After that day, Alex and Alicia started dating. They texted and called each other regularly, went out on dates, and had wild sex.
They could barely keep themselves off each other. Their relationship was passionate and tense. It felt like they were made for each other.
They had sex in hotels, in their homes, and once in their office.
Soon rumors started to spread around their relationship but they did not care. Alicia and Alex had never felt this happy before.
Alicia believed she had found the love of her life. She loved him and he loved her. That was all that mattered right?
Oh how wrong she was.
………
“I don’t want children,” The chilling words of Alex sank into her and broke her in ways she never knew were possible.
She clasped her hands tightly together, fingers biting her nails as she tried to hide her feelings and her trembling.
She looked out of the window, tears pricking her eyes.
It was over. It was all over.

Alicia got Alex inside and shut the door.He fell onto the couch hard. Like his legs just gave out.She stood there looking at him.“Can’t believe you showed up like this.”“Sorry.”“You’re completely drunk.”“Little bit.”“Alex, it’s three in the morning.”He just nodded.She went to the kitchen.
Alicia lay on the bed in her room, asleep, tossing and turning. A small tear ran down her cheek as she slept and she muttered softly; “Alex.”She dreamed that she and Alex were once again together. Gazing into her eyes as if she was the most beautiful woman in the world, he stood in front of her wi
The article dropped before dawn.Alicia saw it because Zara called her, voice sharp and already furious.“Don’t panic,” Zara said. “But also—panic a little.”Alicia sat up in bed, heart already racing. Aiden was still asleep down the hall. Alex had left before sunrise, careful and quiet, like they
Sunday morning came slowly.Alicia woke before the alarm, the apartment wrapped in that quiet hour before the city decided what kind of day it would be. Aiden was still asleep.
