“Welcome to the Dankworth residence.” A portly kind woman smiled at Myra at the front door.

She moved to the side to let Myra in and introduced herself as the housekeeper.

“Nice to make your acquaintance, Ms Doe.” Myra greeted with a feigned juvenile enthusiasm.

“Come. You came in highly recommended.” Ms Doe led the way to the kitchen at the opposite end of the large living room.

The size of this room was ridiculous, taking up the whole space of the first floor.

“And so young.” Ms Doe glanced back to look at her admiringly.

Myra smiled politely, and washed her hands thoroughly in the kitchen sink.

“How old are you, my dear?”

“Twenty one, Ma’am.” Myra lied.

The woman nodded.

“Professor Dankworth will be around much later, but I will introduce you to Nova now. She just got up from her nap.”

Myra nodded, and followed the woman upstairs.

“Please always remember to speak to her in a gentle voice. She startles easily.” Ms Doe stopped outside a door, her hand on the lock.

Myra nodded.

  • Seducing Professor Cal    Epilogue

    “How are you feeling today, Mrs Dankworth?”Myra smiled with her eyes closed, “As fine as someone in my state can be.” “I am always happy when my patients leave, but I feel sad in your case.”Myra smiled as she adjusted to the couch she was lying flat on her back on. “You were really fed up when I just came here. How can you be sad?”“It's not everyday you get a trained ex-cop as a patient,” the woman's voice said, and Myra laughed. “Or is it that my story made you need therapy too?” She teased, and finally opened her eyes. She looked round at the colorful office, and shook her head sadly.She absolutely hated it when she first started coming here. After a six-month stay in a psychiatric ward, she should have loved the sight colors, because of all that plain whiteness she had stared at for months.But she hated the colors, because colors made her think of children. The two she lost, and all the ones she could not have.“Poor Cal.” She said now, and laughed. The therapist gave he

  • Seducing Professor Cal    Bang!

    “Myra, please listen to me,” Aiden pleaded.“Get him out of here,” Cal barked, looking at the police. “This is all your fault.” Aiden turned, screaming at Cal now. “Why won't you just leave her alone?”Cal suddenly began to march toward him angrily when Greg hurried past him, “No. I'll do this,” he got to Aiden and began to punch him.All attempts to stop him proved futile, and Aiden could not fight back with cuffed hands. It seemed Greg was letting out all his life's frustration on the man. “You started all this,” he yelled as he punched him again.“Get off my son!” Ms Acosta's voice echoed over the windy hill, as she pushed through the guests who now had soot on their clothes, and wild eyes from the shock of the explosion earlier. “No.” Greg turned round and yelled at her. “You helped him get into this place.”Greg raised his hand again to punch Aiden, whose mouth was all bloodied now, his eyes rolling backward as he groaned. “You'll kill your brother!”As soon as those words we

  • Seducing Professor Cal    The wedding

    Their surrogacy process was faster than typical, so much so that, on the day of the wedding, their surrogate was four months pregnant with Myra and Cal's baby. Myra sat in the bridal lounge with Jess and Donna, who were both her maid of honor and bridesmaid respectively. Although this wedding was relatively small, it was beautiful.She was getting married to Cal on the hilltop he found her two years ago during the photo shoot, and she was wearing a much simpler dress than she had worn that day.A white satin dress that clung to her hips and softly draped down to her feet, but with a diamond-studded veil that was 200 inches long.She turned to her mother and gave her a small smile. It was such a pity they did not have a normal relationship, so Myra chose to keep her distance. The woman had become a shadow of herself after her husband fled the country, and not even Greg, her favorite son's reappearance, had helped. Tyson Shaw was her love and her God.“Myra.” She turned to the doo

  • Seducing Professor Cal    Two years

    Myra never saw her father after that day, but the cracks he'd left so suddenly in her and Cal's relationship lingered.Worse, it seemed like only she saw this. Or was it just her distorted mind?All other aspects of her life flourished. She made the finest congers swoman her country had ever seen. In her two-year tenure, she ran Brienstein out of Congress, to Gib's eternal pride. She had the best fiancé. Cal was a literal sweetheart, and true to his promise, they only did what SHE wanted. He pampered her to spoil, to the ire of the Dankworths, and eternal envy of Cora, who visited not very often but still enough to make Myra uncomfortable. Despite all this, there was no baby at the end of year two.And all the people who hated the relationship she had with Cal capitalized on this. It hurt her to see how many people he was cutting off for her sake. The Errington women, the Quills, the Dankworths. He really stopped visiting his family, and never invited them over. Anybody who mad

  • Seducing Professor Cal    A chase

    “Is that you Cal?” Myra asked, looking up from her phone as she heard movement at the front door downstairs. He had said the mall was ten minutes away. That meant twenty minutes to and fro, excluding the time it would take him to shop.How was he back so soon then, when it was just about eight minutes since he left?She glanced back down at her phone to confirm, it was indeed, just around eight minutes ago he left.Just then, her phone began to ring, and her heart stopped when she saw it was Greg calling. He had stopped trying to reach her for a while now when she ignored all his previous attempts. Why then was he suddenly calling her now?And by this time of night?She ignored the call as she dropped her feet from the bed and sunk her feet into the fur house slippers. She would go see why Cal was back so early. Did he forget something?Her phone began to ring again. She stared down at it to see it was Greg. She looked away, and was pushing herself off the bed with her hands when

  • Seducing Professor Cal    How to propose

    Cal was staring at her like she was some priceless jewel when they finally walked into the bedroom, and she blushed. “What is it?”“You’re perfect,” he said, his eyes open adoration. She shook her head, smiling. “YOU are perfect.”“I was not sure how to propose.”“What?” “Everything I could think of, I feared, was simply underwhelming,” He said, shaking his head, “and then the ring just had to go fall out like that.”She laughed now. “Do you realize how perfect that was? The box opened, and in the right direction, turned to me like you had thrown some perfect dice.” She gave him a teasing smile now and raised her eyebrows at him, “Are you sure you did not set it to happen that way?”“Come now,” he said, in mock offense.“No one would ever know. How better to impress a woman than that?” She raised her eyebrows in quick succession, and he began to laugh.“I am pleased you think I am such a genius,” he said, and she gave him a look and stood up from the bed, hurrying to the bathroom.
