EMBER"You can.. kiss me if you want to," she said, feeling the throb between her legs as he stepped in between them. He smirked a little and then bent down to wrap his hands around her thighs, lifting her up to his height. She locked her legs around his waist as he held her up with one hand on her waist. With the other hand, he started slowly unbuttoning her shirt. That made her look back at him with a sense of hesitation.But he opened one more button and pulled down her shirt till the whole of her neck and shoulders were exposed with her soft cleavage protruding out of the shirt that had been lowered. Her hands grasped his shoulders, clutching on it well even though she knew she couldn't fall. "I need to devour that neck of yours, you don't know how much it turns me on," he whispered against her ear and then his lips lowered to place soft kisses down her neck. But the softness didn't last long as he bit the crevice of her neck and she had to stifle a moan with just a gasp. She cle

EMBER"You keep saying that over and over again, but if you think I'm playing dumb, you are wrong. If there was a way I could admit something to you that would get you closer to me, I would've done it ages ago. So you don't get to play that game to get what you want, because you won't get any of it," she replied back, trying to surf through her memories and every time they had talked about it. But each time it had led nowhere, there was no possible time she could link him with, because there was no way Ember had ever encountered a man like him, a, influential businessman and a billionaire."I am drunk so I'll just say it. And I'll say it once and then I'll just go off to sleep, there will be no explanation especially when I'm the one who has to say it even though I waited so many days for you to finally show up to me and say you remember. I tried touching you the same so you would recognize me, nothing worked, so I admit my defeat, you won," he said, his head still turned away from her

EMBER"Why are.. you here? Didn't I tell you to leave before I woke up? Why did you think you can still stay here?" She said, trying to be cruel when in reality she couldn't even meet his eyes. There were already so many unanswered questions and he left no opportunity to keep adding more to the confusion. She would lose her mind any moment now."Leave? You didn't really seem like you wanted me to leave last night," he said with a slight chuckle as he rubbed his thumb on her hand as he propped up on the bed, casually like it was his house."I asked you to. We already ended this so there's no reason for us to jump back on it. I said no yesterday.. and whatever happened after was a one time thing. That's it. You.. being Jack.. doesn't change a thing," she said, barely looking at him. But when she did, she noticed his smile fade on the last line, at the mention of Jack."Jack?""Yes, you. Jack.""Wait.. what?""You told me last night you were Jack, from the past. You were drunk and you jus

EMBER"I know you're surprised and this might be far from the best way to say this.. or do this. Maybe this isn't the time at all but I realised if I don't do this, it would eat me up alive, because that's exactly how much you mean to me," Will said, sounding like this was a grand proposal that made her heart settle deep down. What was he trying to do, she thought as she stepped out of her table as well and walked over to him."What is all this?" Her face was shocked but not impressed."I've never gotten a chance to apologise, not for what I did on our date but what I did 6 years ago. The way I treated you and everything I've done wrong. And I knew I had to tell you how much I messed up and how sorry I was for it. I couldn't have thought of a better idea," he said, not caring if everyone was listening but Ember did not understand it yet."So you bring me here? At a place completely similar to the place that had created all these issues and trauma in my head for all these years? This wa

EMBER When they were done with that tedious process of reconstructing everything about Ruby, they were ready to show her the mirror like a big reveal and honestly, Ember wasn't ready for it. She didn't know what Travis had asked them to do, maybe to use makeup to change her entire face, she was just nervous.The royal blue velvet dress that hugged her body and her sleeveless straps and corset upper body gave her body an undelectable hourglass. Her cleavage and waist looked perfect, nothing like it had ever appeared like, neither did she feel suffocated. The slit in the evening gown ran up til her thigh with a very comfortable pair of heels that didn't even feel like heels. Her hair was curled a little to make way for the waves in them and was left open, beautifully set and it looked pretty healthy. And unlike her worries, she looked at her face and none of her features were changed. The make up was very light and beautiful, it made her feel like an absolutely different person even th
