Excuse

Ares POVSam looks at me like a deer caught in the headlights. Her face has drained of all the heat from moments ago, and she looks... scared.Well, at least now I understand why she quit on me. But she should've told me! I could've done something.. Or at least told her I was there for her. I can't have her leaving me for some bitch who can't take a hint."Ares... I..." her words are trembling off her lips, and she looks like she's about to cry. I don't want her to cry! I'm more upset that I couldn't help her with this. I wish I could just take all her problems and make them all disappear and she could be happy and let me take care of her... but she won't do that. She's too damn stubborn."It doesn't matter!" I insist, placing a soft kiss on her brow to soften the blow. "But you really should've told me! We could've worked this out! Don't leave me for stupid threats, baby. I almost had a heart attack yesterday. I'll keep you safe," I promise, placing a soft kiss on the tip of her nose

Buzzing

I watch her retreating back, wanting nothing more than to pull her back into my arms. I want to pick up where we left off before that damn text showed up. I was so ready just to take her right then up against the wall, but that damn buzzing wouldn't stop.I don't know whether I'm glad I stopped and saw the text or not. On the one hand I'm completely relieve that there was a real reason she quit on me and it had nothing to do with her hating me. It was some hater who was jealous of my girl. On the other hand, now I'm freaked out knowing she is being threatened and I don't know who it is. How the hell do I keep her safe if I don't know where the danger is coming from?But right now I'm damn pissed off. Someone is hurting Sam. She did say something about my 'admirers' yesterday. But that was as close to the truth as she gave me. Maybe this was a hit to why she was leaving me without coming out and saying someone was sending threats through text messages.Thinking back to the rat in her c

Slander

I pick up Sam's phone. The photos are there too. From what it looks like they went through the whole company! This is not good. Someone is hurting her... But her phone is in my office, will she know? Should I tell her what happened?What the hell is going on?Sam rushes back in the office completely in tears. My girl is trembling from head to foot. Her face is blotchy and she looks ready to pass out on me.Oh, my poor baby girl. I wish there was something I could do to protect her from all of this. But how the hell did she even find out? I'm worried about the answer. Something tells me this is exactly what the bastard who sent those compromising photos wanted to happen.I can see her whole countenance crashing down before my eyes. She's going to give up. She just wants it all to end. She's going to leave me to save herself... But I'm not going to let her do that. I'm going to show her I'm more than just some playboy with a pretty face. I'm going to show her that I can take care of her

Change of Scenery

Sam's POVAres pulls away from me and looks down with frustration clear across his face. I can practically feel his anger pouring off of him in waves. But there is also something else. Something... protective. Like he'd do anything to take this humiliation away from me."You know what? We need to get out of here," he states, taking my hand. "Let's go for a walk. Somewhere with less eyes on you?" he asked looking at me with questions.I nod my head in agreement, as he wipes the tears away from my face and places a soft kiss on my cheek. "I've got you, Sammy. I don't know who did this to you yet, but I swear, I'll make them pay."I don't argue. I do want to get out here the moment people started accusing me of being some slut the whole damn building . I'm not sure it will help for him to find the culprit or not, but maybe I could file a complaint with the cops for harassment?I quietly follow him to the elevator, his arm a heavy shield saving me from the whispers I'm ignoring, and all th

Vindictive

And then Ares clears his throat. "Wanna tell me about... the guy in the those pictures?" He questions, pulling me closer to him. I can see what it's costing him to ask that particular question. His jaw is tight and his fingers are tightening around my waist. He's pissed, but I'm not sure why exactly.That stopped me in my tracks. In fact that was the last thing I'd expected him to talk to me about. I wasn't sure why he'd brought me out here other than to escape public humiliation at the office. I didn't need death threats and glares from jealous exes."You mean John?" I ask, in confusion. I saw the photos popping up on my phone. They looked bad. But I don't understand why someone would call me a slut! They don't know a damn thing about them or what the hell was actually going on in any of those pictures."John?" Ares tested the name on his tongue like it was toxic. "Who the hell is he?" He grumbles looking down at me like he wants to march across the state lines and strangle him just

When Things Were Easy

I guess the guy hit his limit because I'm suddenly shoved up against a damn tree with his lips attacking mine. I hate to admit this, but they do feel so damn good. No wonder women are obsessed with him!"Baby, you are driving me so damn crazy right now! You know you are mine! I need to know he didn't take what's mine," he growls into my mouth as his hands explore my body. "And this whole damn body belongs to me! No man should ever touch it! It's mine! Do you hear me?" He growls, moving his lips down my jaw and sliding down my neck, before claiming my lips once again.My hands are pressed against his chest. I can feel the pounding of his heart and it's turning me on feeling how frustrated he is. I slide my hands up and wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me.I nip his lower lip and he growls as he presses deeper into me. I can feel his hardness pressing into my lower belly. "Baby, please... I need you to answer me," he groans, digging his fingers into my hair to angle my

Doubts

Sam's POVI have no idea what James was thinking when he asked me out to dinner right in front of Ares! I could see the smug look on his face as he handed me the flowers, and I could feel the fury burning through Ares as I smiled at James and accepted the date.But what the hell was I supposed to do? Turn him down when he's been so sweet to me? And just because Ares thinks he has some strange claim on me, it doesn't mean I'm not allowed to date anyone! Just yesterday he had Jen on her knees... And it really doesn't take a lot of imagination to guess why she was down there.I was so damn conflicted. I don't know if I'm doing the right thing or if I've just made a huge mistake.“You’ve been with Ares more than enough. Now it’s my turn. Give me a chance Sam,” he'd coaxed me."Sam! Don't!" Ares snarled in my ear."Ares, he's right. I've spent a lot of time with you. James deserves a chance," I'd argued."Why the hell should you give him a chance when you know you are just going to end up

Uninvited Guests

"You look great!" he complements taking in my outfit with lust in his eyes. "You did all this for me! I'm flattered!" he chuckles in happiness.He's wearing a white button up shirt, rolled at the forearms, with dark slacks. His soft blond curls were pulled back from his dazzling blue eyes. His relaxed attire put me at ease."You look pretty great yourself," I giggle as he gave me a peck on my cheek in greeting. Is this normal? I have no idea. I've never been asked on an actual date before. But this feels... nice. I just need to push that little tiny niggling of doubt out of my heart, and tell myself this is really what I want.He walks me down the stairs with his arms round my shoulders, and then he helps me into his Mustang before hurrying into the driver seat. This all feels... normal?The drive into the city isn't long, but James chats to be about his day, carefully steering clear of the incident today with the pictures and rumors through the office.I'm glad he didn't ask me about

Attention Seeking

I just smile and nod my head. "He's right," I admit. "I'd also like a strawberry lemonade, please," I add."Got it," he nodded, slightly confused, sending a strange look over to Ares before focusing back on us. "And you sir?" He asked James."He'll take the fettuccini Alfredo-" Ares starts once again, only James seems to have had enough and cuts him off mid rant."Thanks boss, but I can make my own order," James huffs. "Forget what he just said. I'll take the same as Sam," he said with a strained smile.The poor waiter looked really confused, but nodded his head and gave that practiced smile. "I'll have those drinks right out for you," then quickly made his way off the balcony.A sudden giggle caught my attention. I couldn't stop my eyes from focusing on the annoying noise. I know I didn't want to watch, but it was like a train wreck ready to happy. You just can't look away."Steph" had pulled her chair right next to Ares and he was leaning in and whispering something into her ear... A

Regrets

Ares POVI know I messed up again, but I don't know when I've become so irrational... And obsessive! Not to mention probably possessive. Samantha is mine! I've told her that since she came back... Why can't she just accept that and forget about James?The moment James asked Sam on a date, I became absolutely reckless. I wanted to destroy my whole damn office, not to mention fire the bastard who came to my office looking for trouble. He knew! He did! I saw it in his eyes. He was there just to piss me off... And maybe he actually really did want to go out with Sam, but he should stay in his own lane and find some other girl to go out with! Sam has been taken for years!I didn't want to look at her! I was so damn pissed. Not at her. I know she has every right to do this to me after every damn thing I pulled on her. I also know she didn't date in high school. I made sure of that! She also didn't date when she left me... But from those damn pictures it's not from lack of trying on the guys
