LOGINI stepped out of the building into the cool night air. My legs were still unsteady. Every step sent a reminder of what had just happened, and i had to pause at the curb, one hand braced against the cold stone wall, just to breathe.
Get it together.
I walked to my car slowly, keys trembling in my fingers. The parking garage was empty, just fluorescent lights humming overhead and the distant echo of my own heels. I slid into the driver's seat and sat there for a long moment, hands on the wheel, staring at nothing. I atleast still had the car my dad gave me on my birthday before i decided to settle with derick
My reflection in the rearview mirror looked different. Flushed. Lips swollen. Hair a mess i hadn't bothered to fix.
I started the engine.
The drive home was a blur of streetlights and silence. I didn't turn on the radio. I couldn't stand noise. My mind kept replaying the office—the weight of his hand on my lower back, the low tone of his voice against my ear, the way he'd called me a slut.
I gripped the wheel tighter.
Halfway home, i realized she was still leaking into my underwear. My face burned. I shifted in the seat, pressing my thighs together, but it only made it worse—that dull, aching reminder that I’d been stretched open and filled in a way I hadn't felt in months.
Maybe ever.
I pulled into the parking lot of my apartment complex and killed the engine.
For a minute, I just sat there.
Derick was inside. Derick, who kissed me softly. Derick, who asked about her day. Derick, who had no idea what I have just done.
I touched my lips, then my neck, then lower—just once, through my skirt—and felt her breath catch.
I grabbed my bag, got out of the car, and walked toward the apartment.
I walked into the apartment still feeling Mr. Grant’s cum leak out of me with every step.
Derick was on the couch in a t-shirt and sweatpants, scrolling on his phone. He looked up and smiled.
“Hey, baby. Long day?”
“Yeah.”
I went straight to the shower, but I didn’t wash between my legs. I left his cum inside me on purpose. When I came out in just a towel, Derick was already hard. He pulled me onto the bed and kissed me like he always did—soft, familiar, safe.
I kissed him back, but my mind was still in that office.
He pulled the towel off and climbed between my legs. His cock pressed against me. Smaller. Thinner. Nothing like the thick stretch I had taken an hour ago.
He pushed in.
I felt it. Of course I felt it. But it wasn’t enough. My pussy was still open and sensitive from Mr. Grant, and Derick slid in too easily. No burn. No deep pressure that made my mouth fall open.
He started moving, steady and careful.
“Fuck, you’re wet,” he groaned.
I wrapped my legs around him and moved with him, but every thrust just made me think of the desk. The way Mr. Grant had held my hips and forced every thick inch inside me. The way he had called me a slut while he used me.
Derick kissed my neck. “You feel so good.”
I closed my eyes and pretended the voice in my ear was deeper. Older. Meaner.
He sped up. The bed creaked the same way it always did. I moaned for him because I knew the sounds he liked, but the moan was fake. My body wanted to be filled properly again. Stretched. Fucked hard enough that it hurt a little.
Derick came with a low groan and collapsed on top of me. I felt the warm pulse of his cum, but it was nothing compared to the heavy load Mr. Grant had pumped into me earlier. This one barely registered.
He rolled off, breathing hard, and pulled me against his chest.
“Love you,” he whispered.
“Love you too.”
I stared at the ceiling while he fell asleep. My pussy was still leaking a mix of both of them. I slid my hand down and touched myself slowly, remembering the exact shape of Mr. Grant’s cock. How it had forced me open. How he had held me down and told me that cunt was his now.
I came quietly with my fingers, biting my lip so Derick wouldn’t wake up.
It wasn’t enough.
I already knew tomorrow I would stay late again.
I needed the real thing.
I had almost said no to the alumni event three separate times."You have to come," the department head had insisted over the phone. "The career panel needs someone from the humanities side, and the students always love hearing from you specifically. You made an impression, Marianne."I hadn't expected that impression to still be walking around campus eight years later, looking nothing like the boy I remembered."Ms. Calloway." Julian's voice hadn't changed, even if everything else about him had — broader now, more sure of himself, nothing left of the gangly seventeen-year-old who used to sit in the back of my literature class pretending not to care about the material. "I wondered if you'd still be teaching here.""Guest lecturing, actually." I smoothed my blazer, grateful for the excuse to look anywhere but directly at him. "They asked a few of us back for the career panel. What about you? I don't remember seeing your name on any program.""I'm not a speaker. Just an alum with a nice
The business partner's plates turned out to be a dead end — a rental car, paperwork that led nowhere, a man who'd been out of the country the entire two weeks in question. Gavriel spent two days chasing it down personally, growing more frustrated with every call that led back to nothing.I was the one who found the first real thread, almost by accident.I'd been going through old emails, looking for anything that might explain who'd want to watch me, when I noticed something that didn't sit right — the original tip that had flagged my apartment as compromised had come through a private line at the security firm. Gavriel's direct line."Why would the threat assessment go straight to you," I asked slowly, "before it ever reached my father?"Gavriel didn't answer right away. That hesitation told me everything the words eventually did."Because I flagged it," he said finally. "I'm the one who told your father you needed protection.""Based on what?""Based on things only I could have seen
The creak came again. Closer this time.Gavriel moved without a sound, gun raised, body angled between me and the dark hallway. "Stay here. Do not move."I didn't argue. Couldn't, really my legs had gone numb with fear the second I heard it the first time.He cleared the hallway in slow, deliberate steps, checking each doorway before he moved past it. Evelyn stood frozen by the counter, pulse hammering so hard she could feel it in her throat, straining to hear anything over the blood rushing in her ears.Three minutes felt like thirty before he came back, gun lowered, shoulders only slightly less rigid than before."Raccoon," he said. "Knocked something off the back porch. Tripped the motion sensor."The relief hit her so hard her knees actually buckled. He caught her before she hit the floor, arm wrapping tight around her waist, and for a second neither of them said anything at all."I thought—" Her voice cracked. "I actually thought—""I know." His hand came up to the back of her
"You're overreacting," Evelyn said, arms crossed, watching the man her father's security firm had sent stride into the safe house like he already owned it."Your father doesn't agree." Gavriel set his bag down by the door, scanning the room once, twice, the way people did when checking exits had become instinct rather than habit. "Neither do I, for what it's worth.""You don't even know what happened.""I know enough." He turned to face her properly for the first time, and something in his expression made it clear this wasn't a conversation he intended to lose. "Someone's been watching your apartment for two weeks. That's not paranoia. That's a pattern."She didn't have a good argument for that, so she didn't try to make one. Instead she dropped onto the couch, arms still crossed, radiating the kind of stubborn frustration that came from being told what to do in her own life."How long am I stuck with you?""However long it takes." He didn't rise to the bait in her tone. "I'll stay in
Eliot had been talking about the pool all week, the way he did with anything that let him show off a little. By the time Saturday came around, there was no getting out of it not without raising a question neither Richard nor I could risk being asked.“Bet I still finish the lap faster than you,” Eliot said, stretching by the water’s edge, that competitive gleam he never quite outgrew lighting up his face.Richard snorted. “Keep dreaming.”I stayed near the shallow end, towel wrapped tight, watching the two of them fall back into an old rhythm that had nothing to do with me and everything to do with years of friendship I had no business complicating.For the first hour it almost felt manageable. Eliot kept us both entertained, splashing, racing, loud and easy the way he always was in water. It only got harder once his phone rang from the patio and he jogged off to take the call, leaving Richard and me alone at the edge of the pool for the first time that day.“This is unbearable,” Ric
After the wedding, things went back to normal. Eliot returned to his usual business and still had Richard around from time to time. One afternoon Eliot decided it was a good chance for the three of us to spend time together and suggested we went to swim maybe in the week coming “You know I would always beat you at swimming,” Eliot said, already boasting and grinning from ear to ear.“You wish,” Richard answered back immediatelyEliot came close to me and rested his hand on my shoulder. “Won’t you join us?”I bit my lip hard. I had been avoiding Richard because he still wanted us to be together. “You know I’m—”Eliot crashed his lips against mine before I could finish the sentence, making it clear I was joining them whether I liked it or not. Behind him I saw Richard’s face change at once. His knuckles tightened until they turned white.I pushed Eliot back with my hand. “Stop. Your friend is here.”“It’s not like he hasn’t seen more than this,” Eliot said without shame. “Unfortunatel
