“Why am I hearing of the tenth-anniversary celebration just now?” Tamika asked, sounding a bit betrayed by the fact that she had just heard of the event the night before it.“I forgot it as well,” I said, putting my palm to my temple as I felt bad about my forgetfulness over something that important. “The stress and the pressure of everything made me just lose knowledge of it.”“You've got to be kidding me…” Tamika sighed, as she sat on the bed. “I have just tomorrow to get ready for the show, and now I've got to be at the anniversary. You would be stretching me too thin, don't you think?”“I understand your predicament, Tamika…” I took in a deep breath and exhaled heavily. “I would skip it if there was a way to. But I have to be there and you would have to be there as well, just for effects, nothing more. You would be gone after the smiles for the camera.”She stared at me with that gaze that was indirectly accusing me of making up stuff. But then she was well aware that she wasn't l
I had been quiet ever since the kiss from last night, as he had taken me unawares more than anything. There were a lot of things that made me feel like I was in an actual relationship, and I wasn’t sure I wanted that.I didn't know what else I wanted besides getting my career back. Even as I stared at myself in the mirror at that point, I wasn't sure what was going to come next after the massive return of Tamika Fisher.That uncertainty gave me an awful lot of concern as I didn't know what I could do after that had happened. I was trying to take things one step at a time, but it just wasn't working out for me at that point.“You ready?” Dolph brought me back to the moment. I had almost forgotten he had been standing behind me all that while. “I don't think we can ever be completely ready for anything,” I said, sounding like I was in another one of my podcasts as my big day was the next. “But then, I must admit, you've got quite a fashion sense.”“I appreciate your honesty,” Dolph sai
I hated the way Dolph seemed to lose his cool around his older brother and it was happening right there of all places. There would be ugly outcomes if he lost his cool there with Dale in front of everyone who had come for the celebration.But then, I had to admit that Dale could be quite pesky. He had been so annoying from the very first day we had squared off at the impromptu meeting with Dolph's family.“I don't remember sending you an invite. How the heck did you get in here?” Dolph asked as he was getting ready to unleash the flames of his rage right there. I clutched his arm gently with both my hands and I was about to whisper words to him as we both watched him get out the same golden card that all the invitees had.“Don't let him get in your head, Dolph. He's seeing just how well everything is going for you at the moment and he just can't handle it. That's why he's here…” At least I believed so. I just couldn't get why I couldn't help but believe the worst about Dale who had
There were lots of games, lots of drinks, lots of money on the line. But as well, there were a lot of things unsaid as I sat there at that table in a game with Dale. Tamika sitting beside some was a huge source of mental fortitude, as the sight of Dale was quite irritating. I hated the fact that I had forgotten to let Michael know I hadn't wanted tickets sold to Dale or any other person who wasn't in my good books.“You’re not playing?” Tamika asked, putting her hand on my shoulder. It was hard not to forget the way she had helped me keep my cool in the face of a confrontation with Dale. “The dealer doesn't join in the game…” I said with a smile as I turned to her. “But then there's a lot of money for me to make by just standing here and doing nothing.”“You are one wicked genius, Dolph,” Tamika remarked with a smile as she took a sip from her glass of Chardonnay. The drinks kept going round and round, everyone was having quite a good time, and it was all thanks to Michael. At tha
Dolph's intoxication had happened too soon and I was soon left all alone in an unknown world all by myself. The VIP section was full of people but I was lonely. But my loneliness was soon over as my eyes fell on Julia who was standing close to Michael while they both had fun watching a poker game between most of Vegas’s elites. That moment had me faced with the temptation of thinking that everyone was having a good time except me. It took all of the proactivity in me to make me feel good in that moment. “Julia…” I said as I walked up to her. “You look adorable…” We embraced like we didn't know each other so closely as we were out there among the elites.“I could easily say the same about you, but you look way more adorable— stunning even.” Julia was so good at coming up with words and she was doing just that to me at the moment and I couldn't say a single word.“Save the flattery for when I'm done with tomorrow. I would soon be heading home to get ready for what’s about to happen t
I hadn't had the time to look back to see who I had nearly run over while hurrying towards Dolph's office. It felt even worse, knowing I was still yet to apologize for my rude behavior.But I was more bothered about Dolph than I was about any other thing at that point. There were just too many worries on my mind as I saw him lying down there on the sofa. He seemed like he had passed out right at the moment he had stepped in there. I was a bit scared and I couldn't deny that fact. There were just a lot of questions in my head, as I was scared that he could have been poisoned.It almost felt like I wasn't looking at the same person who had been in the VIP section with me just a couple of moments ago. He had taken off most of his clothes and that made me feel like I wasn’t meant to be in there. Could that have been why he had been all about me not coming along with him? He had taken off the jacket and undershirt of his tuxedo. Being just clothed in his white trousers, he lay down ther
At that point, it felt like my thighs were beginning to part of their own accord. There were just too many things happening to me at the same time, as his fingers played with me down low. For some reason, I knew that moment had been a long time coming. It amazed me how much and how long we had held out against our urges and drives which had suddenly taken control of the moment.“Dolph…” It was clear that calling out his name made him amp up the intensity of whatever it was he was doing at the moment, and I never failed to use it to my advantage. It had me feeling a bit naughty at the moment. He went at me and showed me just how much he had missed me and how much he didn’t want that moment to end. It felt like he was about to make it more intense at every point. That had me in some sort of suspense as he had me guessing what he was about to do next. Before I could raise my head to look at him, he was beginning to line the center of my body with his tongue, like he was some sort of w
“That bitch…!” I just couldn’t contain my rage as I listened to the annoying symphonies of Tamika moaning. She had filled in the very spot that I was meant to have been filling in at the moment. It was almost looking like Phil’s entire plan had been meant to create that moment for the both of them.I was sizzling as I heard her moans grow progressively louder with each passing moment. There seemed to be an intense steamy session going on in there, and I didn’t know why I was still standing and listening to them while they had their fun. Soon enough, she moaned out loud to the point where it was obvious that she was having an orgasm. I felt like storming in there and strangling her for taking my spot. It was unbearable as I stood there helpless and troubled while contemplating how I was going to relate all of that to Phil. He had sounded merciless and was without any room for understanding the true state of things.While I thought over the words to use, my phone buzzed rather suddenl
