“You may now kiss the bride,” the officiating priest murmured to the newly wedded couple. The hall was jam-packed when Leila arrived at the wedding. She scanned the rows of clapping guests in a bid to find her best friend, Freya. A cheer broke out when the couple kissed and Leila blushed. It had been too long since she was kissed or even held properly by a man. “That’s how your husband will kiss you in the future,” someone whispered in her ear. Leila jumped. Her best friend laughed at her shock. “You are late. The best parts are over.” Leila hid a smile. Left to her, she didn’t want to be here but her best friend was keen on setting her up with a ‘man’ like it would solve the world’s problems. Yes, she missed having a man but it wasn’t as bad as Freya made it out to be. She smoothed the front of her dress and allowed herself to be dragged away by Freya. The soft breeze pushed her hair into her face and she tucked her black curls behind
A normal person would have said no but Leila stopped considering herself normal the moment she signed the contract with Kelvin McKenna. They only went on two dates for God’s sake. Her best friend didn’t even know because he convinced her to do it before telling Freya. And she agreed. She said yes. Did she make a mistake? What would Freya say? It was partly her best friend’s fault for leaving her behind. Then again, Kelvin wasn’t so bad. Leila was still thinking about this as she entered into the compound of Tech Valley, her workplace. She pulled the door to her office open and paused. Everyone was here. She stole a peek at her wristwatch, she wasn’t late. It was only five minutes past eight. She walked briskly to her table and set her bag and files down. Her head raised when someone sat on her desk. Lily. They were not best of friends but she preferred her to that witch staring at her. Sam’s mission in this office was to make her life miserabl
The department was louder than before as male and female staff discussed her husband. Leila was mortified as Susie broke down into a commentary about Kelvin’s looks. Bile rose to her throat and she forced herself to take a sip of water from her flask. One of the rules of their firm was this: No inter-staff relationship. It was forbidden and highly frowned upon, so most of what they were saying would only happen in their dreams. Still, their thoughts nauseated her. She wasn’t breaking the rules by being married to the boss but she felt like a criminal as she listened to them ogle him and try to picture him without a shirt. He was her husband and she hadn’t even seen him shirtless yet. Susie was the loudest of the gossipers. Her comment about Kelvin’s lips bothered Leila and she scowled at their backs when they laughed at Susie’s remark. Her cheeks warmed when she remembered their near kiss from this morning. Kelvin was perfect as he was. Lily d
Leila forgot how to breathe. She forgot how to be Leila. Her boss—husband was kissing her. His lips were pressed to hers and his tongue was seeking entry into her lips. She moaned and his tongue slid into her mouth. A sound barrelled out of her lips when he lifted her off the floor and her shirt fell. Her legs locked around his waist. Nothing else mattered to her except the feel of his lips on hers. His groan snapped her out of her trance, she palmed his face and kissed him back with a foreign urgency. Her fingers slid into his hair, she tugged on it from the roots, loving and loving the sound of approval he made. He tasted foreign—sweet and she loved it. His lips were officially her favourite part of him. They broke apart for air and to Leila’s horror, she realised she didn’t have anything to hide her cleavage from her husband. Kelvin noticed it and took her finger into his mouth. “Don’t be shy, Leila,” he said, walking them to the bed. Her b
The silence in the room was deafening. Leila froze. Kelvin froze. Their gazes lowered to the mess she made all over him and the bedsheet but he couldn’t bring himself to be mad. He contributed to this. He should have gone easy on his virgin wife. Kelvin was the first one to snap out of his reverie. He knew what she was about to say before she did. From the little he had found out about her, he knew she would be mortified at the turn of events. Leila wasn’t as exposed as he was, so her knowledge about these things was limited. And he loved it. He wanted to be her first in almost every area of her life. Tears trickled out of her eyes. His heart broke. This wasn’t the plan. Though he didn’t think his wife was ready for sex, he had hoped the blowjob could lead to something more intimate between them. “It’s okay, baby. It’s completely fine.” “It’s not okay.” She jumped to her feet to get wipes and a clean cloth. Kelvin did his best to sit s
Two months later and the most her husband had done was finger and tongue her till the point of ecstasy. Kelvin didn’t think she was ready, maybe she wasn’t but their relationship was better. Leila had met his younger sister, Samantha and he was planning to take her home to meet his parents. The thought of parents half-saddened her. She had not seen hers since she walked out on them all those years ago. But it was okay, Kelvin promised to help her find her parents. They might be doing things backward like meeting parents after marriage but it was working for them. Leila pushed the strap of her bag over her shoulder and walked out of the office. As usual, she was the last one to leave. Kelvin was on a business trip so she wasn’t so excited to go home. Home felt empty without him. She grinned thinking about the last time he ate her out. She could get used to that daily. A cab was waiting downstairs to take her home. Since Leila didn’t want her colleagues to know
The next day, Leila woke up sore. She removed the arm tightened on her waist as gently as possible to avoid waking her loving husband. A smile touched her lips when his arm went in a blind search for her and her hand went over her chest. Her heart beat faster and she reached up to give him a kiss on his jaw.Was this love? “Hey, baby,” Kelvin muttered sleepily. Sleep clouded his grey eyes. She kissed him again, on his jaw, then his lips. His lips were addictive, so was his presence. “Where are you going?” “To pee.” Kelvin pouted and rolled onto his back. “Don’t be long, okay? I don’t want to miss you.” “You won’t,” she promised. Her eyes drifted to the phone on the corner drawer, a peek at the time made her sit up. “We have to get ready for work anyway or we will be late.” Kelvin kicked the air in protest. He was such a big baby but she wouldn’t have him any other way. Her husband stole a peek at the phone and muttered, “Fine. Y
“Kiss me so fast I’ll forget how to breathe,” I mutter under my breath as my eyes scan the page of the erotic novel on my phone. “Fuc–” My head snaps up at the sound of footsteps. I perk up as soon as King walks in. He barely spares me a glance and plops into a single sofa across me. He is ignoring me again. I put my phone away with the intention of returning to my novel later. I cross my legs and lean to the side, showing off more skin than necessary. King is watching. That’s why I spread my legs so he can see what his presence does to me. How he makes my pussy bleed for his dick. He won’t touch me even if I’m eighteen and ripe to fuck. I’m his best friend’s sister. I’m off limits but my pussy doesn’t care. I push my skirt higher up my thighs and he closes his legs to hide his bulge. “King.” “Jane, behave yourself,” he growls out. One quick look at the stairs and I crawl to him. My hands rest on his knees. “I don’t want to, King. I want to be
