Hello everyone. I hope you can forgive me if this is the only chapter for today :,) I promise I will do my best so we can have two chapters tomorrow instead S2
“Oh, God…” Millicent wailed, her breath catching in her throat as she instinctively dug her nails into Isaac’s back, as that new sensation washed over her.“Take a deep breath.” Isaac murmured, freezing in place with just an inch inside her, as his hands slowly trailed down her belly in a gentle caress “It’s just for now. You will feel better in no time…”Millie, however, didn't give him much time to continue his comforting, as sweet as it was to know he was worried about her. Overcome by that feeling of urgency, she tightened the embrace of her legs around his waist, undulating against him until she could feel a little more of his thickness inside her.“What…?” he grunted in pleasure, but still held her hips firmly, almost as if he believed she had done it unintentionally “You… You're not in pain…?”“I… I don’t know…” she admitted, not knowing if that was the right word to describe the feeling of being filled completely like that “I… I always heard that sometimes there is no pain, but
Millicent was no longer a virgin. That was the first thing she thought when she opened her eyes after a quick nap and found herself After what had happened with Austin, she had even thought that this moment would never come. But, well, it would be difficult to remain a virgin when Isaac had fucked her in various positions and places in the bedroom throughout the evening. And night. And that early morning… And she had loved every second of it.It was a good thing it was Sunday, because she would need to sleep for a long time to regain her energy.The spot between her thighs was sore and her body was a little stiff, but not in a bad way. It was as if she had overdone it a little at the gym, but… For good reason. She should probably get up right away and start getting ready so she wouldn't be home too late, but that sweet exhaustion only made her want to snuggle even more into the warm bed and stay there, feeling Isaac's fullness on the pillow right next to her. Millicent would have to
Millicent had never been the problem child. She had broken some things while playing like any other child and had some arguments with her parents when she was a teenager about how her friends could stay out past midnight and she couldn't. But, that's it. She had never sneaked out or felt like she needed to hide something big from her parents. Maybe that was why she was feeling almost guilty when she came home in the morning, after spending the night with Isaac. It was almost as if she was a teenager again and was finally experiencing what it felt like to have a badboy boyfriend that her parents couldn't know about. Well, it wasn't like she was sorry anyway.Massaging her neck, she sighed softly as she went to the kitchen to get a snack before sleeping the day away. She and Isaac had wasted breakfast and a shower doing everything but what they should have, so she really needed to get her blood sugar up before falling into bed. However, perhaps she should have been paying a little mor
“Very well, I will prepare a report bringing together everything that was decided at this meeting and send it to Mr. Carnby. Does anyone else have anything to add?” Millicent asked, finishing typing on her laptop to face the team members “Well then, we can consider this meeting closed. Thanks for the good work today, everybody.”Her voice was perhaps sounding overly satisfied, but the reason was quite fair. After all, that meeting had been the best meeting Millicent had attended since the day she started working there. Her co-workers were still clearly reticent about her and Laura's perfectionism was still proving to be a thorn in their side, but there was one detail that was able to erase those others and make everything perfect: Austin wasn't around. Apparently, he had decided to waste his time calling a meeting with just the executives and Isaac to try to convince them that Mr. Hughes's financial control was exaggerated and he needed to have free access to the money if they wanted
One last press in the period key on her laptop and Millicent was finally able to stretch out in her chair. Gosh, working almost 10 hours every day was taking its toll on her back and she wasn't even 24 yet. The only good news was that, at least for that day, she had finished all her tasks, reports and calls. Just another half hour and, after reviewing her schedule and making sure there was nothing else she could help the other employees with, she could finish her work day during business hours for the first time in a while.And, who knows, she might even pay Isaac a visit…“Christ, Millicent, get a grip…” she mumbled to herself, running her hands over her flushed face “It hasn't even been 48 hours since you left his apartment. You're losing your mind.”And she really was going crazy, in fact, because all it took was just one memory of being in Isaac's arms and her body seemed to pulse, yearning for something she now knew very well what it was. Was it normal to think about sex so regul
“Millicent?” Austin called again, at the same time the doorknob moved somewhat violently “Stop ignoring me! Mr. Rosenberg's assistant told me she saw you returning to your office.” “What do you want, Austin?” Millicent growled, more enraged about her moment with Isaac had been interrupted than with the fact she had almost been caught “Work hours are almost over…”As she spoke, she tried to straighten herself up and rearrange her clothes, but Isaac wouldn't let her. Instead, he leaned further into her, holding her firmly in place as his fingers slowly moved again, teasing her until Millicent had almost forgotten her ex-fiancé, and his brother, were still standing outside, close enough to hear her moan if she made a mistake.“But the day is not over yet.” Austin snorted smugly, having no idea that Millicent was chewing her lip hard to try and control herself while Isaac's thumb stroked her clit "And, as a supervisor, you still have an obligation to respond to me!"“I already asked what
“Can you stop this, please?” Cassie grumbled and, just then, Millicent looked away from the glass wall nearby, where she could see Isaac perfectly.“Stop with what?” she asked, pretending her face wasn't blushing.“Stop looking at him like you want to go over there and kiss him in the middle of all the executives.” Cassidy snorted, pouring another cup of black coffee for herself “I know you're kind of blown away by this sex thing, but I don't think the office is the right place to show it that much.”“I’m not showing anything.” Millicent's cheeks burned as she remembered what they had done in her office the day before, something she hadn't told even Cassidy and probably never would “I… I can control my thoughts when we're around other people. I mean, it's not like I'm a pervert who thinks about it all the time..." she tried to justify herself, but the skeptical look from her best friend just made her shrug her shoulders "Is it that obvious?""Sincerely? I know you, so I know the differ
“Are you going to make me repeat myself?” Millicent growled, twisting her arm violently to try to free herself from his disgusting hand “Let go of me!”“Stop making a fuss!” He pulled her even closer, his teeth gritted angrily “If that's the only way you're going to stand still and listen to me, then so be it! I will no longer allow you to go around acting like a slut and thinking this is a good thing…!” Austin’s smug voice was replaced by a grunt of pain as Millicent dug the heel of her shoe into his ankle, finally making him release her “Fuck! Why do you always have to act like a bitch lately…!”“Sometimes, I wish I could just rip out your tongue!” Millicent spat, putting as much distance between them as possible “So I would never have the displeasure of hearing your voice again…”“I’m here to try to help you, you idiot, even if you don’t deserve it!” he gritted his teeth, leaning over his ankle as if she had ripped a piece out of him “I've already let this act of yours with Isaac g
Hello everyone! First of all, I want to apologize for the last two days without any chapters. I had another emergency due to my father's health, but luckily things are calmer now. Hopefully, I'll be able to post the new chapter in a few hours
Isaac hated hospitals. That smell of antiseptic and metal seemed capable of permeating his skin and Isaac could recognize it anywhere. Even in moments like that, when his eyes were so heavy they seemed to never want to open again, he was able to recognize where he was just by that terrible smell. He had stopped in hospital rooms several times throughout his life and, usually, it was an indication that he hadn't been careful enough. What had it been that time? His head was hurting too much for him to remember, but Isaac still struggled. There was pain, his face wet from something hot that was probably blood, and the loud sound of metal… Just like when he had almost died when his car's brakes were cut when he was 18.So, Evan had managed to get him into a hospital bed again. How predictable. He had been more creative before.A soft sob from his side made something inside his chest flutter. Which was ridiculous, because it wasn't like Vincent or Dominic would cry if they came to visit.
Sometimes, Isaac missed how his life was half a year ago.It was equally terrible, of course, but at least he wasn't so aware of it. He could fill his days thinking only about revenge and living as if the only truly functional organ in his body was his brain. But now, here he was, haggard and miserable, only because the rusty thing inside his chest had decided to work. At least, before returning to America, he didn't miss anyone or suffer from the same loneliness that had accompanied him since his birth.Now, even in moments like this, when he should have been focused only on his plans, all he could think about was Millicent.With a heavy sigh, Isaac took a step towards the underground parking lot of his building when the elevator doors opened. That day was being especially difficult because he still hadn't managed to shake off the tension from the previous afternoon, when Dominic had almost ruined everything by allowing Millicent to overhear part of their argument. At least, she didn
Millicent had spent almost the entire day on the phone without actually speaking. She had dialed the same number over and over again, with adequate intervals between calls, of course. She wanted information, not to be a nuisance. However, as her time at the office drew to a close, she was ready to give up for another hour and get ready to leave, until, to her shock, that last call finally went through."Hello, Mrs. Bianchi. I was hoping you'd call again. I'm sorry we didn't answer sooner.""Don't be sorry, Tyler. You shouldn't worry about anything other than your mother right now." Millicent responded to the youngest Davis son, a boy she knew was the same age and attended the same school as Alessandro “I just wanted to know how your mother's condition is."“She’s… Stable now.” Her heart sank at the way he avoided using the word 'fine' "She woke up for a while this afternoon and managed to eat, but... She's still very much in shock. She even asked if everything that happened on Sunday
Silence took over the room for a moment, so deep that Millicent could swear she could hear everyone's heartbeat there. Just like her face was at that moment, everyone had expressions of shock, worry and expectation, as they waited for Emma’s reaction…With the exception of Massimo, who has a huge Machiavellian smile on his face.Emma's response, however, was probably nothing like either of them expected. First, her face filled with shock and terror, which was certainly quite predictable. But instead of starting to scream and deny, as Millicent thought she would, Emma remained silent, as gradually the horror on her face gave way to anger, then shame, sadness and, finally, resignation.“So…” Emma’s voice trembled, just a ghost compared to how she was acting a moment ago. “It’s really you, isn’t it?”“What did you give me?” Laura sneered, indifferently.“You… You still look like him.” Emma said that with her eyes focused solely on her own hands, nervously twisting the skirt of her dress
"Massimo, if we're going to do this, then I think you should at least try to hide your mocking smile. I don't think anyone will have any doubt that our intentions are not good if they see you entering my mother's house." Dante sighed, straightening up in the seat of the limo they were all in, clearly nervous."What are you talking about? That's my normal face." Massimo shrugged, that smile only widening “Can’t a man be in a good mood anymore?”“You don’t even know what Laura’s plans are for tonight, Massimo.” Alice lightly elbowed him, "She's not necessarily going to make a fuss or embarrass Emma. If you're expecting a show, you might end up disappointed."“Well, I could certainly use some entertainment, but I don’t care.” "I would love to see Emma's expression when she finds out that we all know she has her own illegitimate child, but just being able to walk through her house tonight and look into her face knowing that is enough."“I just hope that whatever Laura is planning really co
"Why did you come back?" Millicent questioned, frustrated "You clearly left not only your name and your life, but also your entire past behind. Anyone can see that you got the happy life you wanted, alongside your husband. So... Why now? If you didn't come back for so many years, even knowing the kind of person you had left Isaac alone with... What changed?"“I always wanted to go back for Isaac.” she stated, shrinking "But... Circumstances were never favorable enough... Until he became an adult and it seemed to be too late. But, I never left him helpless. Neither he nor my brother." Imogen chewed on her lower lip "I shouldn't have been surprised that Vincent suspected I was alive. He was always good at seeing more than other people were capable of. That was one of the reasons I left Isaac. I knew his uncle would protect him, especially after he turned 18. I just didn't expect Vince to involve him in his damn revenge plans!" Imogen growled "He should have left Isaac alone! Help him go
“You can start talking.” Millicent snapped, after several minutes had passed, lengthening that terribly uncomfortable silence between them “That's what you came here for, isn't it?”"Yes, I..." Imogen's voice shook, almost breaking "It's just... I think I spent too much time trying to forget the past. Talking about it isn't as simple as opening your mouth and letting the words come out." She massaged her own throat for a moment, as if it were actually a physical pain “How much… How much do you know about what my life was like, when I was still Imogen Carnby?”“I know what your son and your brother told me.” Millie sighed "I know your relationship with your father wasn't good and your marriage with Evan was terrible. But, I still don't think that justifies it..." “Terrible is quite a kind word for my situation at that time.” Imogen interrupted, with a dark smile "It's not like I blame Vincent for not knowing how to tell my side of the story properly. He was preoccupied with his own pro
"That's why I'm going to take action, Millicent… Millicent? Millicent!" Laura’s voice gradually rose on the other end of the call, until it pierced Millicent’s thoughts “Can you hear me?”"I'm sorry, Laura, I..." Millie sighed, supporting her head with her free hand "I'm just a little distracted. Today was... A long day.""You've been saying that all week. Frankly, Isaac Carnby isn't worth that much that you're losing sleep over him." Laura grumbled and Millicent had to bite her tongue to keep from admitting that, besides him, her mother was also haunting her all the time lately. “Did you even hear what I said?”"Yes. Uncle Dante had already mentioned at our last dinner that he received an invitation to Emma's ball. Not that it's a surprise. It's been like this since I can remember: they fight, he moves away from her and then Emma tries to get closer. I think she lives in eternal denial that her son has completely moved away from her." Millie sighed “But… I admit I didn’t hear the part
