LOGINA rush of panic and desire engulfed me. I was almost naked in front of a man. The same scenario I might have judged harshly in another girl yet here I was, breathless and exposed before him. My first love.
His mouth found the hollow of my neck, his breath hot against my skin. He nibbled my earlobe gently, sending a shudder through me.
“Forget I said you're intoxicating, you're devastatingly alluring” He kissed the back of my ear “enthralling” he said as he traced his fingers down my torso till he got to the hem of my panties.
I lay there exposed, every one of my nerves alight. He traced my skin, and with each slow movement, my back arched instinctively. A tight, aching heat coiled low in my stomach just as his fingers slipped beneath the lace of my panties. My breath hitched, tilting my head back as my fingers fisted the sheets.
I let out a moan the instant his fingers found my clit and his mouth clasped down on my nipples again sucking them. Subconsciously I clenched my thighs as he deepened his fingers inside me. His fingers withdrew, only to spread my legs apart and immediately slipped his fingers back beneath my panties. I threw my head back as the sensation intensified, trying to catch my breath.
I'd never felt this way before. Heck this was my first encounter. I didn’t want to say it was my first time. It would be embarrassing and he would stop and I didn't want that.
He thrust his fingers faster inside, my body jerked involuntarily with every thrust and his mouth still was not letting go of my breasts. It over-stimulated me and I came undone on his fingers. My chest heaved continuously, I was out of breath. I leaned on my elbow trying to steady my breathing. My gaze dropped, I gasped. My panties were gone.
How had I not even noticed?
His touch had been so consuming, that I’d lost track of everything but the feel of him.
His mouth left my breast tracing kisses down my torso till his head stopped between my thighs. He held my hips and pulled me closer to his face, his hot breath fanned me as his tongue found my clit. I let out a shuddering moan.
“Brian” I moaned. My thighs clenching around his head, trapping him.
I traced my fingers in his silky soft hair, pulling them softly. He groaned, moving his hands from my thighs to cup my butt, pulling me closer as he thrust his tongue inside me. My mind was still screaming for me to stop but the pull between our bodies was alarming. Deafening. My traitorous skin burned for his touch. It was so hard to steady my breathing as heat formed inside me. My head fell back against the sheets, my back arching off the bed. I placed the back of my palm over my mouth to stop myself from moaning his name out loud as his tongue thrust further and faster. Again I came undone. Panting. I still didn't let go of me, I gave a little push on his head signalling him to stop.
He lifted his head from in between my thighs, I couldn't tell if he was looking at me or not because I wasn't with my glasses. He leaned in, his hands caging my body beneath him. My gaze dropped from his face as soon as I felt a slight warmth touch my thigh. I gasped, it was the smooth heavy drag of his length against my thigh
When had his towel slipped away?
I looked back at his face shocked. I squint through the dim light, struggling to read his expression. His brown eyes held this yearning look which made my heart leap.
Gosh, I wanted more
He kissed my lower belly. Then his hands held my hips, guiding me as he sank into me. A moan tore from both our throats, his forehead dropping to meet mine. I dug my nails on his back, chanting his name as my mind screamed a warning:
Tell him. Tell him it’s your first time.
He cradled my thighs, hooking my legs around his waist, each deliberate thrust pulling a whimper from my lips.
Time blurred. The night burned away.
The light from the morning sun cast against my face causing me to turn, and with every movement I made my body feel sore like I haven't slept.
Speaking of sleeping.
My eyes snapped open as everything from yesterday flooded in. Shocked to the core in disbelief. I gasped when my eyes caught Brian with his messy hair sleeping soundly beside me, his hand around my waist, the duvet covering only his lower body. I looked at his face and the little injuries on his neck and arm as the image of us together last night replayed in my head. I covered my mouth to prevent me from screaming. Everything happened so fast.
I slipped away from his grip trying not to wake him up.
I'm so stupid, where was myself control? I curse myself.
As soon as I tried to get up from the bed, my legs gave out and I collapsed on the floor with a soft thud. Brian groaned on the bed stirring a little, I stayed still hiding. Slowly I peeked over the edge of the bed, he was still asleep. My body ached. I winced as a sharp pain pulsed between my legs. My knees trembled as I tried to stand fully, using the night stand for support. The clock on the night stand read 11:37 AM
My eyes widened in horror. I was late, and to make it worse, I didn’t finish my shift yesterday. Madam Louise was going to be pissed, she hated my gut for no reason and now I have given her a reason to hate me more.
I leaped to where my gown was crumpled on the floor and hurriedly slipped it on, squinting to find my glasses. Once I found them, I put them on. I rushed across the room to get the cleaning cart, ignoring the pain between my thighs. Quietly, I opened the door pushing the cart out of the room and closed the door behind me without looking back.
I couldn't bear to face him, not after that. And I was late to work, also i hadn't submitted the cleaning cart for the day yesterday.
I'm so dead.
I had no idea why I called him by his first name. I clearly was not intoxicated, so why did it slip out? He stirred slightly, mumbling something incoherent into the leather cushion.“Please can you help me lift him?” I asked the nearest security guard, who looked entirely unbothered by the request but hauled Brian’s dead weight upright anyway, one arm slung heavy across my shoulders, his full weight nearly folding me in half as we half walked, half dragged him toward the exit.We got him into my car, and I laid him across the back seat, slamming the door before I could second-guess the entire situation any further than I already had.Halfway through the drive, a low, rough grunt came from the back seat, and I glanced in the rearview mirror just in time to see him tugging viciously at his tie, fumbling with the buttons of his shirt with the uncoordinated determination of the very drunk. His eyes were still closed. “Absolutely not,” I said out loud to no one, pressing harder on the a
I had not worn anything like the dress she picked out for me in years, completely different from anything currently living in my closet. Becky had pulled from the emergency bag of options she apparently kept in her car for exactly this kind of ambush.I changed into a black and white striped mini dress. The top of the dress was loose and sculptural, draping around my chest before narrowing sharply at my waist. From there, the fabric hugged my hips and curves, fitting snugly over my lower body before ending high on my thighs. The strapless neckline left my shoulders completely bare, exposing my cleavage, while the long fabric draped from one side of my waist, falling almost to my ankles and swaying against my legs whenever I moved. I slipped into a pair of black strappy heels, wrapping the thin straps around my ankles, then glanced at myself in the mirror. The outfit was definitely bolder than what I usually wore.She curled my hair into loose waves I never bothered with for work, swap
I opened my mouth to argue further, but caught the flat, immovable look already settling back over his face, and closed it again, swallowing the protest.I didn’t go down for dinner.I sat on the edge of the unfamiliar guest bed instead, still in my work clothes, listening to rain hammer violently against the window, refusing every offer from Brian’s household staff to send up a plate. The moment I was sure no one could hear me through the walls, I called Becky.“Please tell me you’re not still at that ball,” she answered, with a little laugh.“I wish. I’m at Brian’s, because of the storm.” I took a sharp breath. “Selena’s here. She’s currently downstairs, parading around in a silk robe that barely qualifies as clothing.”“Wait. Why do you even care that she’s in a robe?”“I don’t know,” I sighed. “I sound jealous don’t I?” “Yup. What happened to putting him aside.”“I hate it here. I hate staying close to him,” I said, pulling my knees up to my chest, the confession coming out smal
I was at the office before seven the next morning. Brian’s office stayed dark and empty the entire day. No emails, no summons, nothing. I had the best state of mind. By eleven I had almost convinced myself he had taken the day off entirely, some small, petty relief blooming in my chest at the thought of an entire day without him.At noon, an email finally landed in my inbox. It was from Brian. ‘Bring the Lindqvist renewal documents and the quarterly projections binder to my residence. Address below. I need them reviewed today.’I stared at the unfamiliar downtown address for a long moment, something uneasy twisting low in my stomach, before gathering the files and heading down to my car.The moment I stepped inside Brian’s penthouse, I knew it was exactly what I had expected from him. Huge glass windows overlooked the water, flooding the sleek, modern living room with natural light. Everything was spotless, dark furniture, polished floors, expensive décor. Beautiful, but cold.It sme
I was still holding my drink when she found me again.“Enjoying yourself,” Brian’s date said, appearing at my shoulder with that same practiced smile that never reached her eyes.“I’m working,” I said flatly.“Working,” she repeated, amused. “Right. Is that what we’re calling it.”“You know,” she continued, stepping closer, “Brian mentioned you used to be someone important here. Managing Director, wasn’t it?” She tilted her head. “Funny how far people fall when they’re not actually as necessary as they think they are.”“If you’ll excuse me—”Her hand shot out, flicking my glass upward. Red wine hit my chest in a cold, dark splash, soaking straight through the fabric of my gown.A sharp gasp rippled through the small cluster of guests nearest us, someone’s champagne glass pausing halfway to their lips, a woman nearby pressing a hand to her own mouth in shock.The crystal embellishments across my bodice, which had been catching the chandelier light all evening, went dull instantly, weigh
“Eighteen point five million—” Suddenly, a paddle snapped up from the very back of the room.My eyes widened. The rival bidder wasn’t finished; he had tried to catch Brian off guard. A few people laughed nervously at the sheer theater of it. Brian’s jaw visibly tightened. His dark gaze never broke from mine as his hand went up.“Eighteen point eight million.”A collective gasp moved through the ballroom like a wave. The rival bidder stared at him for several agonizing seconds, his face turning a deep crimson, before raising his paddle one final time.“Eighteen point nine.”Brian didn’t even wait for the auctioneer to breathe. “Twenty million.”The entire room fell into an absolute, suffocating silence. The rival bidder slowly lowered his paddle in defeat. The auctioneer looked around, almost breathless himself. “Twenty million dollars. Do I hear twenty point one?”Nothing.“Going once.”My heartbeat pounded violently against my ribs, the sound roaring in my own ears. Brian’s gaze rem
“Mummy, but I don't want to stay home.” Miguel crawled on his bed to meet me from where I sat on his bed to hug me.“No baby, your body says otherwise. It's burning hot.” I place my palm on his forehead. “Ouch! so hot.” I fan my hand. He laughed faintly. “No mummy I'm not.” I sighed. Healthy Migu
“You're pregnant,” The doctor said smiling.“What do you mean? I don't understand,” The word didn't register.“You're pregnant. Congratulations,” She said smiling “On your way out, ask one of the nurses in the reception to guide you to the obstetrician.” I nodded leaving the office numb founded as
"Give me his number.” She demanded.“I don't have his, just the agent's number,” I murmured. “Damn it,” Becky hissed, pulling away from me as she raked her hands through her glossy brunette hair. “Save your tears, love. Fucking bastard should have left your things inside till you came. Maros told
“The landlord. He evicted you from the house” my heart dropped “They broke into your house yesterday and took your things out. He kept screaming about your unpaid rent” My world crashed, I couldn't speak.“I'm on my way Maros” I muttered.I froze, not sure if I should run home, email the agent and
