“Of course, I've… had sex with a man before,” I thought to myself. Once. Twice. Well, maybe. He didn't actually get the chance to go all the way in, but that still counts, right?
"You're still so young, Myla. You need to embrace your true self more… I have a zoom meeting to attend. Chat up if you want,” Cynthia said before hanging up.
I covered my face with a pillow and let out a muffled, irritated scream. This wasn't the first time Cynthia was lecturing me, and I was extremely tired of it. I decided to do something rash. I took all the remnants of the wine in the bottle.
The wine tasted… Sweet.
“Whoa," I said to no one. Realizing I was talking to myself, I started giggling. My head felt good. Really good.
I laughed again. Why didn't I drink more often? It was making me feel really, really, really good.
"Stupid, Cynthia," I murmured. "I'm having fun. And I want sex. I want...to...FUCK! I want to fucking fuck."
I giggled again and made a decision. I went over to my phone and unlocked it. Everything was blurry, but I found my SMS messenger, opened up my text thread with Cynthia, and sent her a message. Even typing it made me feel something… pleasant… down there.
“Hey, bitch! Send me those pornography videos you have on your phone! I fucking need them right now! I want to do a little bit of self-exploration. You know what I mean.”
I waited and then remembered she said she'll be attending a zoom meeting.
Then the dots popped up in the convo, letting me know she was actually there and typing.
“???” Was all I got back. Just three question marks. What was that about?
“Come on, bitch! Don't play dumb! You know what I mean, right? Or, you know what? Find me a guy and send him up to Jaxon hotel and suites. I don't even care if he's a male whore. You know what room 202.”
But Cynthia didn't respond. I waited for a long time too, and after about ten minutes, I realized she might have fallen asleep.
“Maybe it's for the best,” I thought to myself. I just told my best friend to find me a male whore. Fuck! That's crazy. What could I be thinking? But of course, the answer to that was simple. It was the alcohol talking.
And it was still making me really horny. Then a firm knock came from my room door.
I opened the door and immediately felt my heart drop all the way to the pit of my stomach. I suddenly became very aware of what I was wearing– a revealing, red, sexy gown.
“ Jaxon?” I said stammering. “ What are you doing here?”
His robe was open a bit, giving my eyes an opportunity to wander. And wander they did. They seemed to sink into his broad chest, making me wet. I could feel my panties getting damper with each passing second.
“ Myla, I got your message, I hope you’re fine?” he asked, showing me the messages I thought I sent to Cynthia.
“ Fuck! That went to him. Well, I guess his coming here won't be a waste.” I mumbled under my breath.
“ Are you married?” I asked, looking at him with an unreadable expression that shocked him.
Jaxon blinked in surprise. “ No, why are you…”
“ Engaged? Do you have a lover?” I asked, shutting him up completely.
“ I look ugly, right?”
He was puzzled by my line of questions but answered, “No.”
“ Would you want to have sex with me?” I asked bluntly, unbothered by what he might be thinking.
Jaxon stared at me, surprised by my words.
“ And why would I want to do that to you? You looked stressed… please, take a nap.”
He turned to leave immediately, but I yanked him into the room, slamming the door shut behind me. Jaxon stood frozen, his body dominating the dimly lit
room.
" Myla, what the hell..."
" I'm fucking horny," I blurted, cutting him off. " I want sex, Jaxon. With you, right here, right now... Fuck me baby.."
Jaxon blinked, utterly dumbfounded. " You're drunk, "
" So what?" I countered, crossing my arms tightly around my chest but keeping my gaze locked on him. " I made a mistake. A big one. And I need to make more mistakes to cover it up,"
He frowned, his eyebrows furrowing. "That doesn't even make sense. How does making more mistakes fix anything? That's... terrible."
" Maybe." I whispered, stepping closer, my fingers trailing down his bare chest. " But I don't care. I don't want your love. I don't want your money. I just... need this. Please."
Jaxon shook his head firmly. " Myla, stop. You don't know what you're saying. You'll regret this in the morning , and I can't..." He turned, reaching for the doorknob.
Before Jaxon could leave, I tore my dress open, the sound of fabric tearing pierced the air. Jaxon turned around, only to find me stark naked, my bare body gleaming under the flickering light.
His breath hitched as he quickly moved his eyes. " Myla!"
I smirked, stepping forward, unbothered by his reaction. " You're still standing here, Jaxon. If you really wanted to leave, you would've walked out by now."
Jaxon clenched his fists at his side, his jaw tightening as he struggled to maintain control. He kept his eyes fixed on the floor, his body betrayed him, making him rooted in place. This was my chance.
I closed the distance between us, my steps gentle. " You're not running." I murmured, my hands reaching up to cup his face, forcing him to look at me.
" Myla, don't..."
I crashed my lips into his, silencing his protest. I kissed him with passion, pouring all the sweetness into the act.
For a moment, he froze, torn between his principles and the heat surging through him. Then, like a broken dam, he kissed me back with the same intensity, his hands gripping me as though I might disappear. Before I knew it , he carried me over to the bed and laid me on it.
Breaking the kiss, he held my face, darting his eyes. “ Do you really want this?”
“ Yes,” I nodded, my voice stronger than it had been since we met. “I'm sure, Jaxon, hit me hard. Please... Now!” I could feel his cock, it's hard like a rock. That thing.. in me? Would it really fit?
Damn!
"No, no! Don’t say that,” I shook my head violently. “My child will be fine—hale and healthy. He’s going to be okay. He has to be.”The doctor’s eyes locked on mine, teary and desperate. “We need a blood donor now. Immediately. Or we lose him.”“Take mine,” I snapped, my voice cracking. “I’m his mother. Take everything if you have to, just save him please! He's all I've got.”Before he could respond, the hospital doors burst open with a loud slam. A nurse sprinted toward us, face pale, hair falling out of her bun, eyes wild with fear.“Doctor!” she gasped. “We’re losing him! He’s crashing fast, time is slipping!”The doctor checked his watch. I watched the color drain from his face as he whispered, “We have eight minutes. Just eight.”Eight minutes?My stomach dropped. My hands went ice cold. I could barely feel my legs.“Oh God,” I breathed, grabbing his coat. “Then what are we waiting for? Test me. Take me to him! Please!”Cynthia, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, shot to
I froze. My heart stopped. The words hung in the air, slicing through my chest like a blade.“No,” I whispered, my voice barely a breath. “No, they’re wrong. They’re wrong, he’s not going to die.”I shook my head, a tear sliding down my cheek, and I felt like the world was closing in on me. Cynthia’s grip on me tightened, her face stricken with pain, but I couldn’t look away from the direction they’d taken Liam.“I can’t lose him, Cynthia. Please…” My voice broke as fear took over.Cynthia’s voice was thick as she tried to pull me into a hug, but I pushed her away. “Myla, stop! You’re going to make yourself sick.”But I didn’t care. All I could think about was Liam, lying on that cold bed alone. “I need to be with him,” I whispered, my voice breaking, my heart splintering into pieces.Cynthia looked at me, her eyes desperately pleading. “You can’t help him like this. We need to trust them.”But all I could hear in my head were the words of that nurse. “It’s too late.”I squeezed my ey
I clutched Liam’s fragile body against my chest, my whole world crumbling in my arms. His skin was so pale, too pale. Also, his lips were turning a shade of blue that sent ice straight into my veins.“No, no, no,” I sobbed, rocking him gently. “Liam, baby, breathe. Please, just breathe.” “Don’t do this to me. Don’t leave me. I… I… can’t… I can’t survive without you.”I pressed my forehead against his, my tears dripping onto his skin. The sound of my heartbeat pounded in my ears, drowning out everything else.Cynthia’s footsteps echoed as she jumped down forcefully from the pallet, but I couldn’t look her way. At that moment, all I could see was Liam. Nothing else mattered. “Myla, We have to move. Now.”I barely heard her. “He’s not breathing,” I whispered, my hands shaking as I cradled his face. “Cynthia, he’s not…”“I know,” she cut in, her voice low but sharp. “But if we don’t act fast, neither of us is getting out of here.”She wasn’t wrong. I could hear sirens in the distance,
Different screams tore through the air. The sharp scent of gunpowder burned my nose, mixing with the smell of blood. My ears rang as the deafening blasts of gunfire echoed around me.I gasped, my breath coming in ragged gasps. My fingers numb as the gun slipped from my grip and clattered to the ground.No. No, no, no.My body refused to listen. My legs wobbled, barely able to hold me up. My heart pounded so hard it felt like it would break through my ribs.Boom! Another shot fired.I flinched, instinctively covering my ears, but it didn’t stop the noise. It didn’t stop the fear. It didn’t stop the sheer terror clawing at my throat.I needed to move, to get my child. But I couldn’t as my muscles were frozen.Then I heard Cynthia’s scream. A sound so raw, so filled with pain, that it sent shivers through my veins.“This was never meant to happen! You all will pay!” she shrieked, her voice cracking with anger and pain.My legs gave out beneath me, and I crashed to the ground, helpless. M
Liam sobbed uncontrollably, his body trembling violently. His breath came in ragged gasps as he struggled in vain against the chair he was tied to, desperate to break free. His flushed face turned red from all the screaming, and his tiny hands twisted against the ropes, begging to be free.My chest tightened, and before I knew it, tears blurred my vision. I wanted to walk out and yank Sophia’s hair, make her pay for all the pain she had caused me and Liam. But I couldn’t, I couldn’t destroy everything Cynthia and I had worked so hard for. My hands trembled as I raised the gun, my finger brushing against the trigger.Then, just as I was about to do it, Sophie moved. Without another word, without a single flicker of pity, she lifted her hand and let the lighter slip from her fingers.Liam was still clutching his toy, his tiny fingers wrapped so tightly around it that his knuckles had turned white. Tears streamed down his red, swollen face.Sophie didn’t hesitate. She walked over to one
Cynthia’s eyes burned with urgency as she pointed toward the back door. “Now, go!” she commanded, leaving no room for argument. Without waiting for my response, she spun on her heels and strode toward the front door. Panic swirled inside me. “Cynthia, wait!”She halted, her shoulders rising and falling with each breath. Slowly, she turned to face me, her brows furrowed in frustration. “What is it?” she snapped, “Do you not understand what’s at stake? Every second we waste, the risks increase. We don’t have time for this!”I swallowed hard, my throat dry. “And how do you plan to protect yourself when you’re out of bullets?”Silence.Cynthia stiffened. Her lips parted slightly, but no words came out. The flicker of realization in her eyes sent a chill down my spine.She was tough, fearless—always the one to take charge. But now? Now she had no answer.“It’s not about me. It’s about Liam. And I’d lay my life down for him without hesitation.”The words hit me like a punch to the gut. S
We sprinted to the back of the warehouse, our breaths ragged as our hearts slammed against our ribs. Behind us, the man's screams tore through the air, raw and filled with agony.I grabbed Cynthia’s arm the moment we stopped, my fingers digging into her skin. "Cynthia, what the hell did you just do?" My voice came out in a harsh whisper, but I couldn’t control it. Fear and shock tangled inside me, making my hands shake.She turned to me, her chest rising and falling. "I had no choice.""No choice?" I hissed, my eyes darting around the warehouse as I scanned for any signs of movement. The man’s agonized screams still tore through the air, each one making my stomach twist. I turned back to Cynthia, my voice barely controlled. "You nearly killed him, Cynthia! Do you even realize what the hell you’ve just done?""He had what we needed," she said, her voice sharp. "We don’t know what’s waiting for us in there. It’s better to be ready."I wanted to argue, to tell her that this was insane, t
Cynthia pulled into the parking lot near the airport, her knuckles white against the steering wheel. The car engine hummed beneath us, but all I could hear was the pounding of my heart. My fingers trembled as I reached for the door handle, but I forced myself to take a deep breath. We had come too far to back out now."Are you ready?" Cynthia asked, her voice steady, but I could see the tension in her eyes.No, I wasn’t. But I nodded anyway. "Let’s do this."We stepped out of the car, the afternoon sun beating down on us, making the air thick and suffocating. I wiped my sweaty palms against my trousers and glanced at Cynthia. She was scanning the area, her gaze sharp and calculating.The warehouse loomed ahead, its towering structure casting a long shadow over the ground. Every instinct in me screamed that things might not go as planned, but I ignored it anyway. We had a mission to accomplish.As we approached, my stomach twisted. The gate was locked. Not just locked—chained and padlo
As I pushed open the heavy glass door, the crisp afternoon air slapped my face, a refreshing relief from the suffocating conversation I had just escaped.My heart pounded, not from fear, but from the weight of it all. I needed to leave. Fast. Thank God I hadn’t run into Jaxon on my way out. Then, just as I stepped onto the pavement, a familiar voice echoed through the air, “Hey! You’re leaving already?”I turned to see Linda standing a few feet away, arms crossed, her sharp eyes scanning my face like she could read every thought running through my mind.I forced a smile. “Yeah, I have to pick up my child from school—plus, I’ve got an appointment to get to.”She narrowed her eyes, stepping closer. “That’s it? You just suddenly have to go?”I tightened my grip on my bag strap. “Didn’t you hear me, Linda? That’s it. I have to go.”She studied me, her gaze piercing, like she could see right through my lie. And she was right, I wasn’t just leaving for my child or some appointment. I was ru
