LOGINCALLIXShe looked so stunning. I didn't know how woman could look so beautiful at that age without the necessary artificial adjustments that the elite of the society always needed. I had to remind myself what we were out for a date, in a good restaurant, and there were people around. The space was not really my bedroom. If it was, we would have gone naked already from the first moment that I saw her walk through the door. Her handbag was in front of her, and if she hadn't been holding it, well she would have clasped her hands. Or where else would they have been?I smiled when I saw her see me. Well, it was said that only powerful men got the best women. Look at those curves as they formed out of her gown. Marvelous sight!I knew that I had found someone who would keep me busy. Someone whose company I would enjoy. If she wanted a house, then I would definitely get her a house. As long as she stayed with me. By my side. I got up from the chair that I was sitting on just as she began
MELISSA I got on my feet, ready for whatever he wanted to do to me next. My panties were all soaked as if I was on my period and I wished that he would just take them off me to see how much I really wanted him to fuck me. Don took into the house, and we went straight to the dining. He lifted me off my feet and placed me on the sink. My heart fluttered in anticipation of what he was going to do to me. In fact, I would let him do whatever he wanted. Even the nasty things. I had already helped him with my outer clothes. But the only things that I was left in my bra and panties. I opened my legs so that he could see what he had done to me down there. His eyes followed. "You are soaking wet!" he exclaimed. "All wet and ready for your dick, Don," I said seductively. "Oh, you're not going to have my dick, honey," he said and I was devastated. "You don't mean that, do you?" I asked, hoping I had heard correctly. Hoping he would change his mind and tell me that it was a
MELISSAI was shocked when he finished telling me his story. I didn't think that someone like him could be capable of that and it only made me think about myself. Though knowing who my father was and a little of how he thought, I was pretty much sure that I wasn't heir apparent to any of his assets. Had to start making a name and livelihood for myself and forget about the Neto name before it was too late. "But I didn't kill her. I mean, I tried to. It didn't work," Don explained, as if that justified his actions. "In as much as you tried to kill her, it meant that you really wanted what she had. Isn't that callous?" I asked him. "We are all guilty of things that we have done in the past, Melissa. That is the message that I am trying to pass. And some of the sins that we have committed are even worse then others. If you have been wondering how the hell I got this house that I currently live in, then you have your answer."He got up from the chaise lounge and returned some moments l
DAHLIA 4 YEARS AGOWe lay there in each other's arms. A smile formed on my lips, and it was unable to clear away for the next five minutes. Then Don raised his head and looked into my face. His eyes always seemed to get to me. They were a dark shade but also carried a tint of gold in them. His hair was long and grey, and he was the only one in his family to have that color. I always wondered why he chose that very hue. "Always happy when I come home to this," he said to me."Come home to me, you mean?" I asked, hoping he had misspoken."Sex, babe," Don said. "And you are part of that too.""Nah, I thought it was the other way round. Me first, then the sex comes after?"He shook his head as if he was exasperated by what I was saying. "Whatever. So, what's the occasion?" The smile on my face spread wider. I had been thinking about it for some days, and the decision I had made was one I would not regret.I loved Don with all my heart and I wanted him to see that, too.So I sat up in
MELISSA Don scoffed. Then it graduated into a chuckle. "Wait, what did you just say?""You heard me," I bit out. I didn't want to repeat myself because I was afraid that he would actually mock my demand. It was better for me to escape that instead of walking right into that obvious trap. "You want me to give you a second chance?" He asked. Why was he even asking? I had just said it. Or was he trying to make sure that I actually knew that I had said earlier? Did he want me to rethink my words, just to be sure that I had said what I really wanted to say?I nodded my head in the affirmative. Why the hell did he even need me to repeat myself? Did he also see me as someone who need validation? As someone who was prone to saying things without actually thinking about them before hand?Well, maybe I had become that kind of person. But whoever I had turned out to become was all his fault. He had changed me. From the inside out. And he wanted to leave me that way? No, I could not let him.
MELISSA I drove the Escalade over to Don's house. And this time I didn't bother even knocking but let myself into the house. I didn't call his name at first because I was hoping to catch the man with another girl in his bedroom. Yeah, that was how petty I thought. But could you blame me? That was how humans behaved. When you started noticing that your partner was keeping his or her distance, or the communication was getting strained, well, that was the moment when you should be concerned and worried. He or she had found someone else or they had fallen out of love with you. That was the most simple explanation. And it was glaring to me. For the first time in my life, I was going after man who had slept with me. In the past, I was always let them leave. And that was whenever they wanted to or felt like. I wasn't one who had the time or the luxury to run after a man demanding why the hell he was suddenly ignoring me. In fact, I made sure that such behavior was completely beneath my
CAINE The board members meeting room had practically changed. It wasn't how I used to know it before. A couple of gadgets had been added. And there was a forest decor. I wondered who the hell added pictures of vegetative forest to a meeting room. Kade? Did he like the view of nature or what
CAINE I walked into my old office and realized that nothing had been changed. Everything was still in its place but the room was spick and span. I liked that. I sat in my executive chair and rotated it clockwise. Then I looked out the window. Things were less smaller from this point. I didn'
KADE I answered the call when I saw whose name was displayed as the caller ID. I had been wanting to speak with him. "Morning, Caine. Seems like you decided to sleep in.""Morning, Kade. I went to a nice whorehouse yesterday and got some girls to spend ample time with me before the flight.
CAINE Landing was a bit bumpy but we survived it. It was already Tuesday by the time I touched down in Philadelphia. Then I took another short flight to Los Angeles. I didn't even bother heading to my condo first, but went straight to the office. The building was a magnificent one. Tall an
