45 - Send Him Back
~Eve’s Point of View~
I woke up confused, for a moment I totally forgot where I was. I realized I was naked and my whole body ached. I felt incredibly thirsty but saw a water on the table, so I grabbed it quickly and drank it down.
Derek was passed out next to me, equally naked and I wondered if we’d had sex when I got back?
How did I get back? I didn’t even remember it.
The last thing I remembered was peek-a-boo with Axel.
I smirked to myself thinking about his perfect ass. I rolled over and spooned Derek since his back was to me, and I felt him stir.
“How are you feeling my little drunkard,” he said.
“Hungry,” I said, with a sigh.
I was so glad the wedding wasn’t until later tonight, I seriously needed the day to recover.
Derek turned to face me and said, “do you even remember last night?&rdquo

In The Dark 46 - She's Your Problem
~Derek’s Point of View~This was it, my last few moments of the single life, which I was more than happy to leave behind. I couldn’t wait to see my bride, I couldn’t wait to rip her dress off tonight.I already knew she bought some naughty lingerie because I saw it when going through her suitcase for a hair tie last night. My biggest hope was that we always stayed hot for each other, that physical connection meant everything to me, I craved this woman.I’d never even remotely been close to someone like I was to Eve, I could tell her anything, share everything with her and it just fit.I was standing at the altar, looking out at our family and friends, feeling like the luckiest asshole on the planet.The music started and I held my breath, ready to see her, to have those green eyes staring back at me. The bridesmaids all came down and Heath was cutt

Eve and I had woken up twice in the night and fucked each other back to sleep. She was perfect for me in every way and I had never felt more content. We were lost in a tangled mess of each other, deep in sleep when my phone rang, it was a specific ringtone for my grandfather.I quickly tried to get out of bed and find my pants, just getting to it on the last possible ring.“Hey, everything okay,” I said, wondering why he’d be bothering me right now.“Yes, yes, all is well. There is some business though we need to address, the sooner the better, I’ll see you kids for brunch at 11,” and he hung up.I groaned.He didn’t bother me with trivial things, but this was the morning after my wedding.What was so important?I looked at the time, 10:40am, really dude?I also noticed that he didn’t invite us or ask, he said we would be there, mean
In The Dark 48 - Overwhelmed
“Baby what’s wrong,” I said, holding her face.“This is just … a lot. It’s a lot. I am just … I have so many questions. I don’t like signing things I haven’t read. I know I sound like an idiot and I should just do it, but I...”“Do you want me to ask to read it, Rob drafted it with them, knowing my wishes,” I said.She looked lost and confused.I held her, and stroked her hair.“Your grandfather will know it was me now though, and I’m stupid, I’m just being stupid,” she said.“I know this is a lot, more than you could have ever imagined, but this is our life now. You have to be okay with it though, I need you to be okay with it all.”“I don’t like putting my fate completely in someone else’s hands, I’ve always known to the dollar what was
In The Dark 49 - What The Hell Are You Up To?
Eve and I stayed in Vegas only until Tuesday morning, with me promising her a proper honeymoon at some point.The lawyers were working around the clock to finalize things, and I was buying out the Maxwell shares that grandfather and his business partners owned. It was a lot, but I used all my own money, not utilizing the trust for it and that meant everything to me.With a few last minute additional shares, my total ownership of Maxwell Enterprises was now at 67%. My spies told me that Phil’s shares were now less than 3%, with Chris owning 10% ... likely inherited since I doubt he would’ve bought it himself.The rest was stockholders, board members and some employees. Rob was meeting on the down low with an investigative reporter for the New York Times, feeding them information on Phil and Helen’s tax evasion but they were not going public with it just yet.We set up “T-day” as we called, “
In The Dark 50 - Homeless
I told Heath to keep a close eye on Chris, I needed to be sure I could trust him. It seemed like it, but I had many years of distrust with him.He was unbelievably shocked that I somehow found Eve and I did agree it was a weird coincidence, but I didn’t care. She was mine now and it was his loss … and he had to live with that.I wouldn’t have let anything ... not a promotion or my mom’s opinion come between what we shared.I got home and told Eve what happened with Chris and her face ran through every possible emotion. She was angry, sad, happy and then murderous about Helen.She was glad to know that she hadn’t done anything wrong, but sad to know he didn’t have the balls to stand up for her the way she deserved.She then felt bad for Chris, saying he was a victim as well but I wasn’t going to give him that much credit.It was time for Sunday dinner with mom, and
In The Dark 51 - I Forgive You
~Eve’s Point of View~I was bursting and so incredibly proud of Derek, I really had no words. I had known him for only this summer, but I felt like it had been an eternity.I couldn’t wait to see what the future held for us.However, I still had a year of school and he was going to have a hard few months getting things sorted out with the businesses. I had just one thing I still had to do, and that was talk to Chris.I wanted to get it out of the way as soon as possible, I just needed to put all this behind me.Derek arranged for us all to meet at a quiet coffee shop, and I sat at a table in the back, with Derek at a table roughly in the middle.I was nervous, but I was ready.I saw him walking in and my breath caught in my throat, he was still hot as hell.He walked with such a confidence that seemed to say he could get you to drop your pantie
In The Dark 52 - Need A Ride?
Four Months Later~Derek’s Point of View~I was getting burnt out, burning the candle at both ends. Eve was able to schedule her classes so they were all on Tuesday and Thursday, and two she was taking online. So we spent half the week in New York and the middle of the week in D.C.Maxwell Enterprises had offices in both locations, and I was still trying to hold down the fort for grandfather’s businesses as well. I had hired a new COO to be a go-between for both. I had been grooming him for about three months and I seriously hoped he would soon be able to take a lot off my plate,My parents both took pleas, not wanting the public humiliation of a trial. They also couldn’t afford to post their bail, so they would have just been held in prison until trial anyhow. They were both sentenced to eight years in federal prison, likely getting out in five ye
In The Dark 53 - Heath Needed a Job
~This is part two, Heath's story~~Heath's Point of View~What did I hate more than anything? Sending in resumes and filling out questions for jobs. I’d been out of the army a little over a year and I had no desire to find a job. I didn’t need the money, I had more than enough tucked away, but my head was all over the place.I needed to hone in on one thing, I needed something to focus on. I did three tours in the sandbox and got out after nine years, I had enlisted at 18. I was used to structure, a set way of doing things.Going to work for some corporate asshole, some douchebag … was not for me. I decided I’d hold out for the right fit, but it wasn’t looking like I was going to find it.
