LOGINSelene(This chapter contains memories of sexual abuse)I can’t think. I can’t breathe. It’s like the worst panic attack ever. Then there he is. This warm mass of man that envelopes me. He doesn’t force himself into my space. He keeps a close distance. He talks to me in a soothing voice. He brings his tall stature down to my eye level. This begins to calm the pain. The tears begin to lesson. I feel as though I can feel my own skin again. When these men my mother brought home would see me, I knew I had to leave. The lustful grins on their faces as I tried to wear as much clothing as possible. I t didn’t matter. When I would tell my mother they made me feel uncomfortable, she told me I should stop flirting and they won’t bother me. They would drink and smoke with my mother. Doing other drugs until they passed out. I would lock myself in my room but they would always find a way in. They would always
RowanWhat the hell just happened? I have no idea but I know I see my wife spiraling. She is shutting down right in front of my face. I hate seeing this side of her. The one that had to fight all those years alone. The one who was abused by pieces of shit who never should have touched her. Now I will make it my point to find every one of them and make sure they pay for what they did to her. But right now, I have to focus on bringing her back. She is standing right in front of me but every second that passes she retreats. In her own mind that is. Het eyes are hollow and lacking the vibrance that once filled them. Her hands are twitching. Her body is trying to fight abuse all over again. Sad thing is I don’t know how to save her. All of my men are in the room. Allister and Camden were in the neighborhood and I am assuming that Lee reached out to them for assistance. The entire team of guards are in the halls. Bregm
SeleneI really don’t understand what has happened. It’s like Rowan is shutting me out. After dinner with his girl from hell, I decided to just go home and go to sleep. He didn’t wake me. He went to his office and worked on something. I have no idea what. But I felt him pulling away. So, the next few days, we went on as roommates. Nothing more. No teasing or touching. He has made it his mission to end things as they began. Without a relationship between us. I have been respecting his requests and started focusing on how I will work the company in his absence. I have a speech I’ve been working on to embrace our divorce and our company split. Today we have a meeting with the team as word has leaked of trouble in paradise. That being said our numbers look amazing this quarter. We have been having a really good year. The proof is there. We work well together Rowan and I. Just
RowanI have been several things these past few weeks. An asshole is definitely one of them. I have been frustrated and short with her. She doesn’t deserve this but it has to be this way. I have to make her ready to move on. Even If it will literally kill me. But I have to keep her safe. Being with me is not an option. Plus, the two offices need us. Not both of us shadowing the other, but needs us taking care of the office. Yes, our numbers have steadily increased. All of our ads are doing amazing and that is all because of Selene and her amazing team. If I am being honest, I am not really needed here. London needs me. It’s where I will be. As we hit another stone wall on finding who has been harassing Selene, the florist is a bust. I mean taking a note for the card that is threatening someone? How bad is business that this is the kind of orders you are taking. I swear if Selene wasn’t with me,
SeleneA few days have passed we haven’t gotten anywhere with out plan. The flowers and card came back with only the shop owner, delivery guy, Anna and my fingerprints. When we spoke to the owner, they said it was a phone call and that he took the order. Said it was a woman and that she seemed a little off her meds. “Then why the hell did you accept the order?” Rowan yells. Did I mention we went to the shop. Yes, we are in the floral shop now. “Well sir business is slow and a sale is a sale.” The short pudgy balding man explained. “Well, I can make business really slow…” “Rowan, it’s not his fault. He is just trying to make it.” I stopped Rowan before he made a threat that would get him in trouble. Not that this man really had a fear in the world. &ldqu
RowanWatching her on the cameras I can’t figure out what she just threw away. I send one of the men to go down and check the trash heap. I lean back in my chair in full on frustration. Not knowing what is going on in her head. I remember last night was a mess of broken artwork. Me about to twist my damn ankle to get to her. Me needing to discipline her for how she was acting. All of that to say, I’m in love with her and I’m scared she is too broken to ever love me back. While I am thinking I get a knock at my door. “Come in.” “Mr. Merrick, this looks like what she sent down.” He pulls a garbage bag open and places a box of flowers on my desk. I am seething wondering who the fuck is sending her flowers and why wasn’t I aware of it? Why did she keep if from me? I lift the lid to see the rose petals and see if they are in her office and she was just disposing of the b
RowanI spent the next two hours in negotiations with Mr. Herrington, Eric, as he insisted that we call him. Sia lingered around but was bored, so he went to mingle. I sat in the private room with Lee called in from legal to write up a contract for him after we came to an agreement. He needs a mul
RowanI’ve been married for a month now. It has been crazy and the intense connection I feel anytime I am near her is crazy. I made the announcement a month ago that we got married. To simply quiet the gossip going on. I personally don’t give a damn about what people say about me. I have never liv
RowanHer juices leaked down my face as I tasted her. Flickering my tongue over and over, bringing her to the point of orgasm just for me to withhold her continued pleasure. “I gave you two orgasms on my tongue, beautiful. Now I want your next one on my cock. Understood?” I challenge my dom
RowanSitting in the conference room with my new wife and my friends was different. I mean they know I’m married and they know there are reasons for the sudden marriage. My wife doesn’t know that I told them though. I may need to tell her though I know they will never mention it to her. I am g
