Pain and Lies
His face turned to one of shocked horror. He stared at me as if he couldn’t believe what I said.
“Wh-what are you talking about?” He asked.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Weston, but I’m afraid I can’t be your caretaker,” I repeated. “Don’t worry, I promise this has nothing to do with any of these so-called ‘incidents’ we’ve had. I have some personal reason for leaving. I’m very sorry to have wasted your time. I hope you and Thomas will find someone suited for the position very soon.”
I stood and walked out before he had a chance to speak. My will to leave was already weak, and I didn't need him blaming himself, making promises, or begging me to stay. I needed this job, sure, but that didn’t matter anymore. Thomas was right. In th

The Stranger In My Bed The Labyrinth
Was telling him about all this a good idea? Probably not, if I was being honest. He’d probably be shocked, he’d definitely think it was unprofessional, and he might even be a little disturbed. After all, having a dream you had no control over? Out of his hands. But what was my excuse for not waking him? Masturbating in the privacy of his own bathroom? Him and half the other people in the world. But what was my excuse for watching him?My behavior these past twenty-four hours had been completely inappropriate, bordering on crazy even. I feared it would only get worse from here if I stayed. I was hoping I’d never have to admit any of it to him, but if it helped to finally put his mind at ease, then it was worth it. His
The Stranger In My Bed Meeting Jack Weston
The chef arrived a short time later with a cart of food. Mr. Weston nodded to him briefly and took the cart. The chef returned the nod with one of his own before turning around and leaving without a word.Mr. Weston pushed the cart over to the fireplace, placing it between the two armchairs. He looked back at me and gestured towards the chairs. I was still a little nervous about this whole setup, but I shuffled over and sat down like he wanted. He took his own seat, turning the chair to face me."Help yourself to anything you’d like,” he said, grabbing some kind of pastry himself. “But onto more important things. Please, ask me anything that you’d like to know about me. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to answer everything, but I promise to do my best to answer honestly.”I thou
The Stranger In My Bed Unforgettable
I must have had a million more questions, but somehow, I just couldn’t bring myself to ask anymore. Jack didn’t press me either. I think this experience had been a little draining for both of us. We sat in silence, picking at the food on the cart.I heard the clock chime from somewhere down the hall, but I didn’t pay too much attention to what time it was. The food was mostly cold by now though, so it had to be getting late. He must have realized this too. He stood and walked over to me. I was about to ask if everything was okay when he leaned in and gave me a gentle kiss."Anna, can I ask you to do one thing for me tonight?" He said cautiously."What's that, Sir?"He half-smiled as I slipped back into the "caretaker" role. He brushed his fi
The Stranger In My Bed Strangers
The distant chiming of the clock in the hallway told me it was eight in the morning. I opened my eyes to the early rays of light. True to his promise, Mr. Weston had touched nothing but my hand. Even in his sleep. I carefully untangled his fingers from mine so I didn't wake him.The cool air of morning touched my exposed skin and sent a shiver through me. I blushed remembering the way he'd stared at my body, but there was no time for that today. There was no third day. "Jack Weston" would not be appearing again and I had to prepare for whoever might come down the stairs later.I got dressed and went downstairs to wait for Thomas. I went to the lounge and sat in a chair near a large window. I stared out at the rose garden nostalgically. In just a few short days how many important things had happened here? I came here to escape being homeless and broke. How did I
The Stranger In My Bed The Studio
I followed Thomas upstairs and down one of the halls. All the doors looked the same to me, but Thomas knew exactly where he was going. He stopped in front of one of them suddenly. I heard a clattering on the other side."Mr. Weston's photography studio," he explained before opening the door.I saw Mr. Weston fumbling with an expensive-looking camera. He seemed intently focused on it. I looked around. Camera equipment and lights were everywhere. A messy display of random items sat in the corner. Despite being so large, the room somehow felt crowded with all this equipment.A sharp click and a flash of light startled me from these thoughts. I blinked the spots from my eyes and turned towards their source. Mr. Weston smiled from behind the camera."Thomas, honestly, w
The Stranger In My Bed A Beautiful Afternoon
I followed Thomas downstairs and out to the garden. The chef had laid out a table as requested. However, Mr. Weston was far too busy setting up his equipment to notice the spread. Thomas gave me another amused look."You got him outside. Now, how will you make him eat?" Thomas chuckled.I thought about it for a second. It would be a lot harder to convince him eating was photogenic. My thoughts were interrupted by a sharp whistle. I turned, Mr. Weston was waving at me."Ms. Walton! I'm trying to center this scene. Go stand by the roses so I can use you as a marker," he said, pointing at them.My last experience with stopping to think taught me it was better to follow his orders immediately. I walked over to the bushes. He waved his hand to the right. I moved in that direc
The Stranger In My Bed A Favor
My footsteps echoed down the halls. This place really was so large and empty. Thomas said the cleaners were here, but I had yet to see a single person. I was starting to worry if I was even in the right place when, thankfully, I heard a voice in the distance.I followed it to a bedroom at the end of the hallway and opened the door. Thomas was talking with a group of three men in blue coveralls. He turned as he heard the door open."Anna, what are you doing here?" He asked. "Where is Mr. Weston?""He wanted to work more in his studio. I thought I should come learn how to talk with the staff," I said, walking over."Did he actually eat lunch?"I laughed. "Resentfully, but yes."Thom
The Stranger In My Bed Passion
Suddenly, I heard a crash come from somewhere upstairs. The studio? Mr. Weston’s face flashed through my mind. Panic immediately replaced any personal conflicts I was having. I ran up the stairs and burst into the studio. Mr. Weston was dusting himself off."What happened?" I asked, panting.He seemed shocked to see me so out of breath. "Huh? Oh, I tripped over a tripod. That's all. Are you okay, Ms. Walton?"I looked next to him. A tripod was, in fact, turned over on the floor. That was probably the crash I heard. I let out a deep sigh of relief. My heart started to slow back to its normal rhythm."Don't scare me like that again," I almost begged."I'm sorry?" His confusion made it sound more like a question than
