Nina sat at a booth in a local burger joint. Sharkz wasn't high end, but the food was good and there was privacy. She scrolled her phone while she waited. Then she received a message from Lu. “Yao just parked.” He texted her. She quickly replied “alright call me in about 20 mins” she put her phone faced up and leaned back.
Yao slid into the booth. His collar was messed up and there was lipstick on his neck. “Really? Would it kill you not to show up wearing some whore’s cheap perfume?” Yao rolled his eyes “Here we go. You couldn't at least let me order a drink before you start in on me?” “Not when you don't care to try and hide it.” She threw her hands in the air “Ugh let's just get to business” she takes the tablet at the table and starts ordering food. “What business do we have anyways?” “You fucked me over in the Johnston deal remember” Nina crossed her arms “I want the laundromat” “Over my dead body Nina. The laundromat has always been mine.” Nina clicked her tongue and cursed in Chinese. “Fine the jewelry shop on 20th” “What about the one on-who is that?” He asked as a notification lit up her phone and showing the background, a selfie of Nina kissing the cheek of another man while smiling. “None of your business” she said flatly and turned the phone over. “Your business is here.” The waitress brought over the food and their drinks. Nina noticed the note slipped under his plate. Probably her number. “Fine … the one on Madison instead. The one on 20th is selling…other rocks” Nina sighed “I guess that will have to do. I'm waiting on a call from Lu. Can you answer it for me? I need to use the restroom.” “Yeah sure” he sighed and watched her go around the corner. He looked at her phone for a moment, she was just leaving it there? Even after he saw that? He reached over and turned on the screen. Locked. He frowned “I bet she still uses the same password…” he put in the code and smirked. His birthday. He looked through her contacts and found him “who the hell is Hiro?” He growled as he searched through their messages. They were meeting after this? He scrolled up a bit more and the phone cracked. “Why the hell is she sending nudes?” He stood up and threw some bills on the table. It was well enough to cover the meal and a generous tip, before storming out. Nina could hear the screeching of tires in the background and came back for her phone. She picked up the phone and called Lu. “He gone?” “Yeah boss. And pissed.” He took a drag of his cigarette while he watched Yao leave in the distance from the top of the parking garage “even grabbed the gold razors” “Good” she yawned and smirked at the forgotten note. “Swing around front and take me home. I have some work I need to finish before he knocks down my door.” “Should I buy the morning after kit on my way to work tomorrow?” He asked and exhaled. “Just in case. He’ll probably be too pissed though” “If you say so” he put out his cigarette on the bottom of his shoe “Be down on a sec” —- Nina stretched on her couch and put her reports down. Even after a long bath she still felt stiff from all her paperwork. She pulled the sleeve of her cashmere robe back up her shoulder before she stood to get some tea. Soon her thoughts were interrupted by furious knocking “Someone took their time” she picked up her phone and opened the door. Yao stood there, blood splattered across his chest and a cut on his cheek. In his hand Hiro’s amulet dangled. Nina looked him over and took a picture on her phone before turning away. “You can come in.” She said as she started messaging Enzo. She had won. Yao grabbed her shoulder as she started to walk away from him “Hiro’s dead, but clearly you know that already. You knew what I'd do if he touched you” He pulled her back to him. Nina looked up “you know…I had a bet with Enzo to see if I could get you to kill Hiro. I almost backed out…but then you showed up in front of me with some woman's lipstick on your neck.” The realization set in that he had been set up and he pulled her tighter against him. His arm wrapped around her waist and held her close. While he slipped his other hand down the front of her robe. “You're a devious…”he kissed her shoulder “Conniving..” he moved up to her neck “Bitch” he said biting her neck. Every touch of her skin sent electric spark up their body. Their soul bond taking full effect, increasing the pleasure they felt from each other. She let out a short gasp as he held her right against his.. she could already feel him growing behind her “you're an ass that” she had to catch her breath as he squeezed her nipple roughly. “Hah~ you owe me a new phone” "We'll see if you can even think about it when I'm finished with you." He said as he pinned her between his body and the wall. He toyed with her chest as his other hand trailed along her stomach. His middle finger brushed over her clit and along her lips, gently sparking across the sensitive flesh. "Can't stand you." He grunted, as his turgid length pressed into her backside. She bit her lip to keep from moaning. Not wanting to give him the satisfaction. Then she smirked "you know, every time I had sex with Hiro I called your name. It made him try harder to please me" she knew the mixture of anger and pride would send him into a frenzy. He drove his fingers inside her as he nibbled her ear, relishing in the taste and scent of her. "As if he even knew what he was doing." He turned her around and lifted her leg over his hip. He kept her spread, as he fingered her. His eyes never left hers. "I could do more with these two fingers than he could with his entire body." "Mmmnf that sounds like a challenge" she panted as one hand rested on his shoulder to keep her balance "but I think we'd both be disappointed if all I got was two fingers tonight" her other hand traced down his chest to his pants. She simply tore off the button caging him instead of going through the effort to save the pants. The zipper gave away the moment the button was no longer supporting it, freeing Yao's cock from its cloth prison. He ran a hand down her thigh and grabbed her by the ass as he adjusted her. "Doesn't matter." He slid inside her. The sparks were never stronger. "He won't have a chance to redeem himself." He grabbed the knot of her robes and jerked the chord, untying it. The sight of her body only made him hungrier. "fu-fuck" she moaned as he took her. It had been a while since they had sex and it was sorely needed. "I'll just have to find another man to see if they measure up" she leaned forward licking the scar on his cheek as she pulled his hair-tie out and ran her fingers through his long black hair. "They'll never last." He kissed her roughly, as he thrust into her quivering sex. His tongue deftly knocked the wind from her lungs. His fingers dug down into her creamy thighs, gripping her tightly against him. He broke away and kissed her collarbone. Only the sound of their flesh crashing together could be heard mingling with their breaths. "I'll just have to ruin you for any other man." He spanked her hard, as he grabbed her ass. "I'll make sure you keep screaming my name until you're hoarse.” She reached up and pulled his hair and bit into his neck,marking him. She was the only woman that could get away with laying claim to him. "Good" she said and rubbed against him. "I don't need them to last." She kissed him. She only wanted him. She looked him in the eye "if you ever show up in front of me again wearing another woman...I'll tie you up and make you watch me get ran through." With the look on her eye, anyone could tell that it wasn't an empty threat. "I'd rather have you tied up." He said as he picked her up and held her between his body and the wall. She was the only woman who didn't break under his touch. "Besides, you taste your best when you're soaked in vengeance." He licked along her neck. She wrapped her legs around his waist. "It's not hard when you're always a dick" her body seized up as he started to hit her spot repeatedly. "Fuck...Y-yao" she moaned. She kissed his jaw and scratched back. He was going for the kill. She hated how intimately he knew her body sometimes. He took a step back, adjusting her for a better angle. He could feel all the signs in her body; her tightness, her breathing, the curl of her toes. He leaned in, thrusting hard into her and biting down on her ear for the final blow. "Yao!" She screamed his name as her back arched back and she came. He was the only person who could please her like this. "fuck..." she murmured "Hope that wasn't all you had in you. The night is still young." He carried her into the bedroom and tossed her onto the bedsheets. His scared body glistened with sweat and had the strong scent of her plum body wash. "You know me better than that," she smirked and went to the edge of the bed. It was time for her to fight back. She ran her fingers down his abs then along his shaft. She licked along his member before swallowing him whole. He groaned as she took him in. "Nina, fuck--" he bit his lip. His fingers ran through her hair as she pleasured him. She looked up at him from below and gave him a knowing stare as one of her hands rested on his hip and the other began massaging his balls. She was in control now. He thrust his hips lightly in tune with her movements. He was close. He could hold himself back, but he was craving the release he could only feel at Nina's touch. She felt his body react and ran her hand along the inside of his thigh. Sparks following her fingers like live wires. She freed him from her other hand as she took all of him in on one final stroke. He gripped her by the hair as he came. His hips slowed down. A gentle twitching came from his girth, as he finished. "Fuck, I needed this." He panted and let her hair loose. She stayed attached until he finished and swallowed. "Same" she said as she wiped her mouth.The second Nina stepped into Yao's home the door shut behind her and Yao's arms wrapped around her waist. Yao kissed her neck and down to her shoulder as his hand pulled back and unzipped her dress. "I've been patient all day" He bit her neck and massaged her breast. The electric current made her already sensitive skin even more sensitive. "I'm not going to wait anymore." he pulled away and undressed. The moment he was free his picked her up and pinned her against the wall. He entered her unceremoniously, he didn't have the patience for foreplay. "Fuck" he growled in her ear as he thrust. Nina gripped his shoulder as he took her. "Ahh~" she moaned. She hadn't been with anyone the entire time he was in isolation and the sudden contact almost made her cum on the spot. He grinned as he felt her, and bit her neck. He missed her taste, the way her soft body felt against his. He thrust again and came. "Mmm a small preview for tonight, Gold" he kissed her then carried her to bed. He
Nina sat next to Yao at La Esperanza. They had a gorgeous view of Advent. "One day, this whole place will answer to us, you know" he said as he watched the view with her. He rested his hand on her thigh and kissed her neck gently. "Sir, Madam." The waiter interrupted them "I've brought your Antipasti" He poured a small glass of Rose as a plate of bruschetta was brought to them. "Please, enjoy" She nodded and took a sip of her drink before taking a bite out of her bruschetta "Delicious" She held her hand to her cheek. It was simple but, as always, decadent. "Oh right, in about three months I'm going to go to China" she said as she took another sip. "China? What the hell is in China?" He asked surprised. She let her glass down gently and sighed "Madam Xi's birthday is coming up soon. I'm going to get her presents from us. She's been talking about home more recently, so I figured.. " "Something from home would gain her favor" He finished her sentence "Yes, but I want it t
Nina placed a rose quartz needle in Yao's right shoulder, guiding his ki along his arm. "Your arm is recovering well from the trauma" she said as she gently twisted a needle close to his wrist. "You must have made a breakthrough while you cultivated." "I did. What about you? Did you finally breakthrough while I was away?" he asked, curious to see if she had become stronger. "No, my progress seems to have stagnated for some reason. I even tried earth aligned herbs from other cultures. I feel like I'm just spinning my wheels in mud here." She placed another needle in the crease of his elbow. "There. Your metal ki should begin balancing itself." He looked up at her, the bath and shave had already made him feel human again "You know a year is a long time. I was thinking," he paused trying to find the words. "maybe we could try for another child." He said softly. "Do you mean that?" Nina asked, surprised. "Yeah." He clenched his free hand as he waited for an answer. "We would
Nina paced back and forth at the botanical garden where he was placed in isolation. His year was up. What if assassins came by? What if he starved to death? What if the ki deviation was too much? Yao stepped out and shielded his eyes from the sun, he watched with a slight chuckle as she paced frantically. He was thin, only eating preserved rations for the year. His pants were clean but worn and silver ki deviation lines were spread across his chest. "I knew you would be here." he said and hugged her tightly, the beard he had grown over the year scratching against her neck. Not only was his body denser, but his ki had become denser as result of his constant cultivation. "Gem!" She hugged him tightly and kissed him happily. Her hand ran down his right arm and stopped where his hand used to be. The pound of flesh that had been demanded from him. "Gem, I'm sorry...." He kissed the top of her head "Don't be, it's better than the alternative." She smiled and pulled him towards the r
"A whole year" Yao said as they reached the halls. He leaned back against the as he took the whole situation in. "I'm sorry, I feel like I failed you, Gem" She said shakily as leaned against him and wrapped her arms loosely around his waist . "They already had a decision made." He put his hand on the back of her neck. "You were perfect. You always are when I fuck up. It's just a year and in seclusion no less. I'll just focus on my cultivation while I'm away. I'll be back before you know it." He kissed the top of her head. She hugged him tightly. She could hear the strength in his voice. She would have been fooled if she couldn't feel the slight tremble in his hands. She looked up into his dark eyes and smiled softly "Why don't I give you a proper send off? We can talk business in the morning?" "I like the sound of that." he kissed her deeply. She always knew how to cheer him up. Nina pulled away then took out her phone. "Lu, go home you'll be on call for the next two days. Sp
There was a soft rumbling in the trial room. Many of Yao's rivals came to see his downfall. The neutral parties came to see the change in power, and his few allies were seeing if it was worth jumping ship. Yao leaned on his hand at the mahogany desk, bored of the pony show that they were putting up. His advisor moved things around nervously. The murmuring fell silent as the click of heels met the stone floor. Yao's ears perked, and he turned around to see Nina in a black and silver dress. He felt a surge of power and realized she was wearing white gold, not silver. He gave a small smile, even after being asleep for a month she looked ravishing. He wished he was allowed to speak here or he'd call out to her, but it would be just another thing to use against him. Nina smiled at him as she strutted confidently, and listened to the murmurs as she went by. Apparently there had been rumors that she had died. She went to take the seat meant for the significant other but found it taken
