He grabbed me by the shoulder and helped me onto my feet, capturing my mouth between his and snaking his tongue in to get the taste of his release lingering therein. His hands cupped my heavy breast while his mouth wandered to my neck, kissing and sucking on the flesh thereon. I moaned helplessly, wanting more and knowing he would give it to me. His mouth moved to capture my nipples, and after torturing them for what seemed like forever, he dropped to his knees.“You smell so good, gorgeous.” He moaned, his voice vibrating against my throbbing and needy pussy. I bit my lips and moaned, pressing my head against the wall as my lashes fluttered. He lifted my leg and placed it on his shoulder, and in the next second, I felt the flick of his tongue. My leg on the floor shook from weakness as my reaction surged through me at his action.This god of a man was on his knees, between my legs, pleasuring me. I whimpered when he pressed his tongue against my slit, and my eyes stayed shut, mentally

I woke in bed to see the day had broken. It was finally Monday, and a part of me wished this day wouldn’t come because I knew what it meant. Monday meant returning to our normal lives. This life, although brief, felt more real than anything I’ve ever experienced in all my twenty-one years of existence. It made sense why I didn’t want to let it go.Even the best of things has an end, I’ve been told, and this would not be any different. I had to prepare myself to get back to my real life, the one that waited for me outside this beautiful penthouse. Would it be so wrong to stay longer? He affected me the same way I affected him, so I wouldn’t be overstepping in wanting to stay, but this was my heart talking and not my head. I knew better than to overstay my welcome.The part of my senses that took notice of my surroundings finally kicked in, and I realised Aaron wasn’t in bed with me. It was weird considering he was nowhere in the room, either. That didn’t deter my plans. Today was my las

I remember the day Lionel overdosed. I came with Zion to visit, just like we had initially planned, only to find him unconscious, face down on the floor, with a needle plunged into his arm.I called the emergency line immediately to come over to the house. I didn’t let Zion in, and neither did I let him see Lionel when the medic came to take him away, because I feared that would leave a negative mark on him.We were, fortunately, able to stabilise him, and the doctors told us he had injected more doses of heroin than his system could carry. I told them he was clean, but they told me he might have stumbled back into abuse and felt too ashamed to tell me. The doctor told me if I had gotten to him later than I had, he wouldn’t have made it.Lionel pulled out of the state of unconsciousness a few weeks later. I came with Zion over to the hospital to visit, and there I met with Betty, Tatiana, and Owen for the first time in years. I will not forget the look Betty gave me and Zion that day,

I gathered the assignment into my hands, grabbed my bag, and locked the car before heading towards my office.“You’re almost late,” I heard the famous voice of Daniel say from behind, and I groaned, not wanting to start a long talk with him this morning about how or why I was almost late.“Good morning, Daniel.” I tried a calm tone, and luckily, it worked.“Let me help you with that,” he offered, but unlike other times, I shook my head. It wasn’t his job to lessen my burden, and I didn’t want him to get used to it.“I’m almost at my office,” I pointed out as the reason I didn’t want his help.“Come on. I know you’ve got this under control and can do it all on your own, but I want to help.”Knowing there was no winning for Daniel, I paused and turned to him, clenching the books in my hand.“You will not let this rest if I don’t give in, will you?” I demanded, a frown coming into my face.He grinned. “You already know me so well.”I handed him the pile of books in my hand and began headi

The next few days flew by faster than I expected, and soon it was Friday. I had one class with my students, and after I closed up for the day, the next step was to pick up Zion from school.Just like every day, as I stepped out of the block, Daniel was already waiting for me to see me off to my car. “Are you ready for the night ahead?” he asked, sounding too eager and making me raise a brow at him.“I can’t say no, can I?” I raised a brow.“You can’t, Ms Adams. This is a yes-only question,” he chuckled.“Then yes, I am,” I answered.“And Zion?” His concern always seems to warm my heart. It could be because he’s expecting to get a chance with me someday, but it was always nice and comforting whenever he’d ask after Zion. He did more than some family members did.“He would be with Diya. I’ve already made plans.”He nodded, impressed, saying, “That’s good.”For a moment, I wondered what it would be like to give us a chance. He was a great guy with a big heart. I’ve known him for two years
