Last supper

“Mr Steffan is at the hall already. He said to bring you after we dropped him.” Isaac said, walking up to Racheal.She pressed her lips together and nodded. She walked behind him to the waiting car, and got in. The drive to the main building was quiet. She got down and could hear the music from the windows before she even entered the building.Racheal walked in to see the party was in full swing. The attendants were looser and more merry than their first breakfast here. She saw Roslyn chatting excitedly with Robert Sanders and his wife. Spencer and Danna Sherrod were in deep discussion as they ate. Steffan was sitting with some younger officials in both Xen’s and Yin’s governments. He was listening, but appeared distant as those around him talked and laughed, obviously eager to please him.He spotted her standing, and stood up. There was a vacant seat beside him. She walked carefully towards it. He pulled the seat out for her, she sat and adjusted it.“Thank you.” She said. H

Get in line

“I can take you out of Yin tonight.” Maxwell said.Racheal froze. She looked at him, and he nodded. “What has gotten over you?”“Can’t you see it? I have not stopped loving you. I made a mistake, all you wanted to do was leave. If I had left with you, you would not be stuck with the Sherrods now.”Racheal watched him, wondering if he was the same person who had broken her heart before. She closed her eyes to push away the thoughts of her clinging to his legs, and begging him not to leave that day.When she opened her eyes, he was close to her and staring down at her with those light brown eyes she was very familiar with.“Don’t fight it. We can leave now, we can still do all the things you wanted to do. Everything can go back to the way it used to be. You always wanted to go to Venice. I can take you there.” He said, stepping close to her.“Sweet Racheal, my sweet Racheal.” He whispered,And that snapped her out of her trance.She stepped back.“You are pathetic. So you break my he

A visit to Jade

Racheal watched Steffan get up and walk out, before she got out of bed. What did he plan to do with the permit, return it to his father?She did not ask him though, even as she sat beside him on their way to Jade’s house. She had no idea how best to talk to him, because he was almost like a stranger now.“Do you think you are pregnant?” He asked suddenly.“What?” She asked, startled.“Do you think you are? Is that why you have been this way lately?” He asked. She wanted to ask him what way? But she glanced at Justin and the chauffeur in front and said nothing. Steffan clicked a button and the demarcating glass went up, separating them from the pair in front.He turned to look at her. “They cannot hear you now.”She sighed. He had not talked to her for so long, and this is the first thing he decided to talk about? She blamed the loud Roslyn and nosy Danna Sherrod for this. She hated discussing this whole baby topic with anyone. First her father, then Danna Sherrod, Roslyn, now h

Steffan gets the permit

Jade held Racheal’s hand as she walked the couple to the door. She hugged her close. “I hope you can make it to our party this weekend.”Racheal nodded. With the way Steffan was acting, she would likely go to that party to de-stress.She turned to see Jade was looking at Steffan, with a hint of anger in her eyes. “All Racheal did, she had no evil intentions.”Racheal glanced at Steffan, he frowned and said nothing.“See you soon.” Jade squeezed her hand, and watched them leave.“You told her we were fighting?” Steffan asked, as they got into the car.“You think I need to tell anyone we are fighting?” She frowned at him. Perhaps the alcohol was making her bolder. “People are not blind.”They said nothing as they drove to the vault. She wondered if this was the v

What price?

Racheal did not look at Delbert again before they left. In the car, she could not stop thinking about what Chloe said. Madame Dalloz had said Spencer bombed that camp.Was the woman lying to her? Why would she lie to her? And if not Spencer Sherrod, who would bomb the camp?“Delbert said he would only give you the key to the safe,” Steffan said. Racheal turned to look at him. So that was why he was in such a foul mood.“Why don’t you just take it from him?” He asked her.“I don’t want anything to do with the Dallozs anymore, I told you already.”“You don’t have to be friends with them, just take the key from him.” Steffan frowned in irritation. She looked ahead and said nothing. He’d better go find Ben’s daughter and get her copy.

A trick

Steffan stepped out of the bathroom some minutes later. “It’s negative,” he said. Racheal was staring in his eyes to gauge what he felt. But his eyes showed nothing. She could not see whether the result brought him relief, or saddened him.“We still need to take that blood test to be sure,” he said.“I am not pregnant, I don't feel pregnant.” She said in frustration. Why was everyone insisting on this? She might even be barren for all she knew. She was not going to focus her mind and energy on this the way people said her mother had. She did not want to go down that line of desperation.Steffan just looked at her and said, “Rest up.” Then he walked out the door.She sighed. Here she was, hoping that they were on the verge of reconciling.

Another threat

“How can you turn a son against his own parents? Don’t you have a working conscience anymore?” Danna Sherrod asked.“And you?” Racheal retorted, suddenly feeling anger. “Where was your conscience when you tried to pin a crime you committed on me?”Danna Sherrod frowned. “I could have been your ally here. Maybe your friend even, but you are destroying all the chances of that happening.” “I do not need allies. And you are the last person I want for a friend.” Racheal said, meaning every word of it.“You will regret this.” The woman said, and Raacheal felt her heart sink. Another threat. Now she had to be careful again, and always watch her back. Why could she never get a break? She heard the convoy coming up the driveway.“Come with me.&rd

Another getaway

Steffan placed his hand on Racheal’s waist, and slowly turned her around.“Let's not fight like that again?” Racheal said, tilting her head to look in her eyes.He nodded, and kissed the tip of her nose. She smiled. “Go get dressed.” “Dressed?”“We still have that vacation to go to.” Steffan stepped back, with his hands in his pockets, looking at her.“It’s Tuesday.”“Well, neither of us have to go to work.” Steffan moved close again to run a finger across her collarbone. “And we both deserve it, don’t you think?”She nodded, and turned around into the bathroom, she closed the door behind her and leaned against it, a smile spreading across her face. ***When she stepped out, Steffan was not in the room. She sighed, picked out a sundress, and slid a pair of heels on.“You look lovely.” Steffan appeared at the door.She turned around and smiled at him.“Ready?” He asked. She nodded. He walked forward, and took her hand and her purse.“What are you doing?” She asked, giggling. “He

I missed that

“Do you know how long this drive will be?” Steffan asked.Racheal shook her head.She had not been paying attention the last time he took her out of the city. But she knew it would feel like forever as he slowly began sliding her lacy panties down her legs.“You’ll not care,” he said, and winked. He took her right leg and placed it over his shoulder as he began to kiss her calves, moving upward and upward.“Uhhh.” She closed her eyes, her hands feeling around for something to grip. She found herself becoming more and more breathless as she waited for his lips to reach the spot her whole body most anticipated. But Steffan was taking his sweet time. To her distress, his lips traveled up to her thighs, came so close, and went back to her calves to restart the long upward journey.“You want me to beg again?”“Do you want to beg?” He had a devilish smile in his eyes, as his tongue darted out and lapped at her inner thigh.“Ohhh.” She gasped, pulling further into the seat. “Lift the dr

I trust you

“I can’t believe we just did that.” Racheal giggled as she pulled her dress down to cover her legs, and then up to cover her chest.“I can’t believe we have never done that.” Steffan responded, tossing the wipes in the car’s disposal purseThey watched it shrink.“We are disrespectful lots.” She said, now beginning to feel sorry for the men that had to live through that. Steffan smiled, and pulled her close.“I was joking about the screen. This is a custom-made car. They couldn’t hear anything,” he said.“Did you have this in mind when you were customizing your car?” “Maybe.” He grinned.She shook her head, and looked away. "They still knew we were up to something improper when you closed that screen.”“You think they don’t know we are always up to something improper?” He asked, softly caressing her arms.She smiled and said nothing, just continued leaning her head on his chest.“Racheal.” Steffan said, his voice serious. She froze.“Never lie to me again,” he said.“I won’t.”He
