Damn… she’s asking for it without saying a word.’ Davis' head was in a jumbled mess. Mrs. Gladdis held his gaze, her lips parting slightly as her chest rose and fell beneath him. ‘Yes… look at me like that. Don’t stop now.’ She moaned within. Then, with a smooth, almost reverent motion, his lips trailed down her neck to the curve of her collarbone. Her soft gasp encouraged him, and he took his time, memorizing the warmth, the slight tremble beneath his lips. ‘It’s been so long… I almost forgot how this feels,’ she thought, her fingers slowly sliding into his hair, holding him there. His hands moved higher, cupping her breasts lightly, thumbs brushing over her hardened nipples. She arched into his touch, a low moan slipping past her lips. “Davis…” she whispered, breathless, and he felt her pulse against his chest. ‘She’s mine tonight,
Davis watched as Ivana hastily rushed out of the mansion, her steps quick, uneven, like she was running from something. The door slammed behind her, and he frowned, curiosity flickering for a second.‘Where is she going in such a hurry?’ He questioned.But he pushed the thought aside. It wasn’t his business. He leaned back into the chair, legs stretched, and continued munching on his snack, letting the tension from the mansion fade as he waited.The soft sound of heels on the stairs drew his attention.She walked down slowly, fully dressed, her eyes widening slightly when she saw him sitting there. She paused, a small gasp in her throat, before stepping forward and tapping his shoulder.“Hey.” Lilico’s voice was soft, polite, but tinged with surprise.Davis turned and smiled. “Lilico.” He stood, waving lightly.Lilico glanced around, brows furrowed. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” she asked, because had never shown up unannounced before.“I tried calling,” he said, sinking b
Ivana remained standing for a moment, her gaze drifting down to the bottle lying on the floor. It had rolled slightly earlier and now rested near the leg of the bed, its white surface almost too innocent for what it carried.A strange uneasiness settled in her chest again, and for a brief second, she considered picking it up… but she didn’t.Instead, she turned away from it completely, as though distancing herself from the choice it represented.Right now, she had something far more urgent to deal with.Without wasting another second, she reached for her phone and quickly dialed the number she had memorized from Tardrain’s phone earlier. Her fingers moved fast, almost instinctively, as if her mind had already made the decision long before now. The line rang for a while.No answer.Ivana pressed her lips together, her impatience creeping in as she pulled the phone slightly away from her ear, staring at the screen for a second before dialing again.Her fingers tapped lightly against her
Ivana slowly stood up from the bed and walked toward Lilico, her steps measured as her mind raced for the right words. She didn’t know how to explain it to her, didn’t know how to make her understand that rushing things now would only ruin everything she had been working so hard to build.At least… She was making progress.Tardrain was slowly getting comfortable around her, and that alone had taken effort, patience, and careful steps. She couldn’t afford to lose that now.What she didn’t understand was why everything had suddenly become so urgent. The agreement had been clear from the beginning—one year.So why this pressure now, and Why this sudden desperation?“Why are you silent?” Lilico asked, her eyes fixed on Ivana with an intensity that made it impossible to avoid the question.Ivana blinked, snapping out of her thoughts. She forced a small smile onto her lips and stepped closer.“I’m making progress now, Lilico,” she said softly, her voice calm but pleading beneath the surface
Her eyes lit up instantly, a wave of relief washing over her.She stood up quickly and positioned herself in front of him, wrapping her arms around him carefully. Taking a deep breath, she gathered her strength and pulled.“Ugh…” she groaned under the effort.Slowly, he rose from the wheelchair, but the moment he stood, his body leaned heavily against her as a sharp pain shot through his waist and legs.“Shit…” he muttered under his breath, trying to suppress the pain.His grip on her tightened instinctively.Ivana looked up at him, and the moment she saw his face, her heart clenched. The pain he was trying so hard to hide was written all over him, and it hurt her to see him struggling like that.He tried to sit back down, but Ivana held him in place.“You can do it, Tardrain,” she said, her voice trembling as tears gathered in her eyes.Tardrain looked down at her, his gaze lingering on the way she held onto him so firmly, her arms wrapped around him as though she was determined not
(BACK IN THE MANSION)Tardrain had fully changed into his gym outfit, adjusting the sleeves slightly before settling properly into his wheelchair. With a quiet breath, he began rolling himself out of his room, the soft sound of the wheels moving against the polished floor echoing faintly in the silent hallway.He made his way toward the stairs and carefully wheeled himself down, his movements practiced and controlled, showing how used he had become to doing things on his own. Soon, he reached the ground floor and continued heading toward the exit of the mansion.However, just as he was about to move further, he suddenly stopped.Slowly, his head turned toward the direction of Ivana’s room.Mike had told him which room belonged to her, but at that time, he hadn’t paid much attention to it because she was nothing more than an unwanted presence in his life. Someone he had no reason to concern himself with.But now, things are different, and she was supposed to check on him. Yet she hadn’
Tardrain wheeled into his room and slammed the door behind him with more force than necessary. The chair rocked slightly as he began pacing,.forward, and back, forward again.Ivana’s tears kept replaying behind his eyes–the way they had welled up so fast, the tiny tremor in her lower lip before she
“What are you doing here?” Tardrain’s voice cut sharp through the quiet gym.Ivana blinked hard, snapping out of her thoughts. She took two quick steps back from him, narrowing her eyes. “Huh? What did you say?” not recalling what he had said earlier.Tardrain ignored her and rolled his wheelchair
Ivana went straight to Tardrain’s room without stopping to shower. Her skin felt sticky under her clothes, thighs still damp from earlier with Davis. She could taste him faintly when she swallowed, but she ignored it and kept moving.She stopped in front of Tardrain’s door and knocked once, quick,
“Why did he go there?” Lilico pressed, eyes narrowing like she could see straight through Ivana’s skin.Ivana’s pulse spiked as she forced the words out in a rush. “Uhm… because I forced him to.”Both Lilico and Davis blinked in unison, staring at each other before averting their gaze back to Ivana
