As soon as they got into the room Marcus had his lips on Cass, They kissed passionately as Marcus pushed her back into the closed door.
Marcus paused and asked, "Are you drunk?"
"No" Cass replied
"Do you know who you are with?" Marcus asked again
"Yes, I am with Marcus" Cass replied
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Marcus asked putting his lips close to her ears
"No" Cass replied moaning
"Good" Marcus had to be sure she wasn't drunk, The last thing he wanted was to take advantage of a drunk lady.
Without hesitation, his lips met Cass's in a passionate kiss. Cass felt the world fade away as she surrendered to the intensity of the moment.
Marcus had his arm wrapped around her waist and his other arm around her neck to pull her closer.
Cass felt Marcus pull off her dress and lift her up as he carried her to the bed pushing everything out of the way without breaking his kiss.
Cass saw the beautiful angel wings tattoo on his chest and kissed it. She looked up to see his eyes closed with passion and continued to rake her fingers down his hair and back.
Marcus had never felt this attracted and intoxicated with a woman before even the simplest things she did sent waves of arousal through him.
He sent a trail of kisses from her neck down to her belly button and felt her shiver. He smile and sent a trail of kisses to her breast and this time nibbling along the way.
Cass had never felt such intensity and passion in her life and could only sigh in pleasure and moan his name.
"Just touch me" Cass whined, arching impatiently against his hand. Slowly, Marcus brought his middle finger down and slid it gently over her.
Cass threw her head back. "Yes. Keep going" He did it again, this time his fingertip slipping between and going deeper.
Marcus could hear her gasp and all he knew was that he had to please her because pleasing her pleased him tremendously.
Marcus was doing things to her with his fingers and his mouth that almost made her black out.
Marcus suddenly slid up to look her in the eyes and smiled when he saw her eyes widen and her pouty red lips part in surprise at the size of him.
" Shall I?" Maercus said mischieviously
"Yes please" Cass said he lips hoarse from pleasure
The room filled with a symphony of whispered words and breathless moans. Their bodies moved in perfect harmony, their desires intertwining as they explored the depths of pleasure.
The hours slipped away in a haze of tangled limbs and whispered promises. They reveled in each other's touch, lost in a world where time ceased to exist.
Cass woke up to see sunlight coming through the window, She gently untangled herself from Marcus and looked at ther phone.
"Shit" she was going to be late for her flight. She hurriedly put on her dress to leave before Marcus woke up and things got awkward.
In the spur of the moment, Cass wrote her number on the receipt she found on the table.
Cass stared at Marcus who was sleeping peacefully and looked even sexier if that was even possible. She shook her head, kissed his cheeks and left hurriedly.
Unknown to Cass, The paper slipped hrough the space between the bedside table and the wall.
Marcus woke up with a smile on his face and tried to pull Cass closer to him when his hand turned up with nothing.
Opening his eyes, he saw she was nowhere to be found and he ran to check the bathroom but she wasn't there. He noticed her clothes were gone that was when it occured to him that she was gone.
He had no way to contact her and Marcus was angry she left without saying goodbye.
Cass got to her hotel and found Scarlet waiting for her
"Look what the cat dragged in" Scar said teasing Cass
"Where were you? Did you spend the night with that handsome chunk of a man?" Scar said
Cass felt her face flush and looked away to avoid Scar's gaze "Where is Amanda?" Cass asked
They heard the door open and Amanda came in "Sorry i am late, I lost track of time"
"Track of drinks you mean" Scar said sniggering and Amanda rolled her eyes
"Let me freshen up and we can leave"
As she had her shower, Cass couldn't help but think about the previous night. Wh knew that was how her last night in France was going to end. She wished her vacation wasn't over and she didn't have to think about adulthood.
She wondered if Marcus had woken up and if he would truly call her again.
Three weeks had passed since Cass returned from her unforgettable vacation in France, and the memories of that passionate night with Marcus continued to haunt her. Despite their connection, she hadn't heard from him, and doubts began to creep into her mind. Was she overthinking that night? Did it hold the same significance for him as it did for her? Cass sat at her desk in her cozy New York apartment, staring out the window at the bustling city below. The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow on her face. She absentmindedly twirled a lock of her hair, lost in her thoughts. "Why hasn't he called?" she whispered to herself, her voice tinged with a hint of disappointment. She couldn't help but wonder if Marcus had simply moved on, leaving their encounter as a mere memory. Doubt began to overshadow the once vibrant memory of their passionate night together. Lost in her thoughts, Cass noticed the pile of mail on her desk. Among the mundane bills and adv
Cass sat in her spacious office, surrounded by stacks of legal documents and case files. The hum of success resonated through the room as she reflected on the remarkable journey her career had taken. She had become a force to be reckoned with, a rising star in the legal world. In her hands, she held a folder containing the latest case she had won. It was a lawsuit against an estate management that had tried to cheat people out of their hard-earned money. A sense of satisfaction washed over her as she admired the plaque on her desk, which recognized her exceptional achievements as a lawyer. Cass had worked tirelessly to reach this point, and now she was on the cusp of becoming a junior partner at the law firm as she had always dreamt of. Just as she was reveling in her triumph, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts. She glanced at the screen not recognizing the number that appeared. "Hello?" "Who is this?" Cass asked "Good day Cass, It's Mrs. Anderson" Mrs. Anderson was the lon
Cass sat in her boss's office, a mix of determination and frustration etched on her face. She had spent countless hours preparing for this meeting, gathering evidence, and crafting a persuasive argument as to why the prestigious law firm should take on Mrs. Anderson's case. It was a matter of justice, of righting a wrong that had devastating consequences for an innocent child. Mr. Peterson, the stern and formidable head of the firm, leaned back in his chair, his gaze fixed on Cass. His expression was guarded, betraying no hint of sympathy. "Cassandra, I understand your passion for this case, but we've already made our decision. We won't be taking it on." Cass took a deep breath, summoning all her courage. She had prepared for this moment, and she wouldn't back down easily. "Mr. Peterson, I urge you to reconsider. The evidence is compelling, and Mrs. Anderson's child has suffered tremendously due to the negligence of the pharmacy company. We have an opportunity to make a differenc
Cass slowly regained consciousness, her eyes fluttering open to the sterile white walls of the hospital room. The rhythmic beeping of the machines echoed in her ears as she tried to make sense of what had happened. The events leading up to her current state slowly flooded back into her mind. She remembered waiting at the park, eager to meet the nurse who held a vital piece of information about Mrs. Anderson's case. Before their meeting could take place, chaos erupted as the nurse was struck by a hit-and-run driver. In the commotion, Cass was also attacked, stabbed by an unknown assailant. The pain from her wound still throbbed, a reminder of the danger she had faced. As Cass glanced around the hospital room, she noticed her sister, Scarlet, sitting by her bedside, her eyes red and swollen from crying. Relief washed over her as she realized she was not alone in this ordeal. "Scar," Cass croaked, her voice barely above a whisper. "What happened? How did I end up here?" Scarlet's e
Cass sat in the dimly lit corner of the cafe, nervously tapping her fingers on the table. Her heart raced with anticipation as she waited for the ex-employee Jake had found, hoping that he would provide the missing pieces to the pharmaceutical case they had been tirelessly pursuing. As the minutes ticked by, Cass glanced anxiously at the entrance. Finally, a man in a worn-out suit walked in, his eyes scanning the room until they landed on Cass. He made his way over, his face etched with a mixture of weariness and suspicion. "Are you Cass?" he asked, his voice low and cautious. Cass nodded, her eyes locked on his. "Yes, I am. You must be the ex-employee Jake mentioned." The man nodded and slid into the seat opposite her, his gaze darting around the cafe. "Listen, we don't have much time. The information I have is crucial, but it's dangerous for both of us to be seen together." Cass's anticipation grew, her mind buzzing with questions. "What do you have for me? We've been hitting
As Cass sat in the cold, dimly lit interrogation room, her mind raced with a mixture of frustration and disbelief. She couldn't believe that a simple photograph of her receiving an envelope, which contained nothing more than cash, could lead to her arrest and questioning. The interrogator, a stern-faced detective named Detective Roberts, sat across from her, scrutinizing her every move. Cass maintained her composure, her legal training kicking in as she prepared to defend herself. "Ms. Thorton, the evidence against you is quite compelling," Detective Roberts began, sliding a folder containing the incriminating photograph across the table. "This photograph clearly shows you receiving a large sum of cash from an ex-employee of the pharmaceutical company who has been involved in several cases of bribery, extortion, and blackmail and is currently being investigated." Cass calmly picked up the folder, her eyes scanning the photograph. She knew she had to find a way to explain it. "I u
Cass plopped on the sofa and sighed, There was no need reading the content of the letter in her hand. It had been one month since the case and she had gone to the office to see Mr Peterson but Cass hadn't been allowed to see her boss, in fact she had been handed her sack letter by the security at the entrance who proceeded to supervise her clearing out the desk to the pitied stare of her associates. The day couldn't get any worse, she thought in her heart staring dejectedly at the wall. Suddenly, the door burst open, and Scar rushed in, her face pale and eyes wide with panic. "Cass! Cass!" Scarlet's voice trembled with urgency. "Something terrible has happened!" Cass jolted to attention, concern flooding her senses. "What is it, Scarlet? What's wrong?" Scarlet struggled to catch her breath, her words tumbling out in a rush. "Mrs. Anderson's child, the one in a coma... he... he didn't make it. he is gone!" A wave of shock and sorrow washed over Cass. The weight of the news bore d
The air in the clothing store felt heavy as Cass browsed through the racks of clothes, her mind occupied with the weight of recent events. It had been one long month since she had last seen or spoken to Jake, her heart shattered by the news of his engagement to Stacey. In fact, he had blocked her number, and Scar and Amanda had not been spared either. Lost in her thoughts, Cass suddenly froze as she caught sight of a familiar figure approaching. Her heart raced, hoping against hope that it wasn't who she feared it to be. But as Jake and Stacey came into view, any lingering doubt evaporated. Their eyes met, and for a moment, time seemed to stand still. Cass's emotions surged to the surface, a mix of hurt, betrayal, and anger coursing through her veins. She swallowed hard, steeling herself for the confrontation she knew was inevitable. Jake's voice, laced with condescension, broke the silence. "Well, well, if it isn't Cass. I heard you've been having quite a tough time lately and y
