View MoreI’m startled when the door of the office suddenly opens a few hours later and Grant is sleepily standing in the doorway. “You scared me. Are you alright?” I ask him, my hand on my heart as I try to stop it racing. “I woke up and you weren’t beside me, so I got worried and came looking for you.” “I’m sorry, I couldn’t sleep, and I didn’t want to disturb you, so I came here.” “Hmmm.” He mumbles as he makes his way to my sofa and lays down. “You don’t have to sleep here, go back to bed. I will come back when I feel tired.” “No s’okay, I’m fine here.” He replies sleepily already beginning to fall asleep. I shake my head but leave him to it and continue sorting through the files. Around 3 am I come across a transaction that shocks me and I have to wonder if I am seeing things due to lack of sleep. “This can’t possibly be right.” I mumble to myself as I stare at the paper before placing it safely to one side on the desk and then rifling through the rest of the papers to see if t
Since I finished my lunch during the call, I get straight back to my task of digging through the mountain of paperwork and before I know it, I’ve lost all sense of what is around me besides the papers I’m reading. “Angel? Angel.” I register my name being said but remain focused on my work until I feel hands touch my back it startles me, out of my skin and I jump up to my feet in defense mode. “Aaaaaah! Oh my, Grant!” I clutch my heart and try to control my breathing. “Sorry love. I tried to get your attention, but you were in a world of your own.” “It’s alright. Sorry, I was lost in a world of figures. Is it evening already?” “About 4.30. I finished early. What is all this?” He asks. I explain my system and the basics of what I have found so far. A frown appears on his forehead when I mention some of the discrepancies I’ve found already. “Hmm, I think you are on the right track. It certainly seems fishy from what you’ve told me so far.” “I agree," I say, "I was going to reac
When I wake up the bed beside me is empty and cold. Sunlight is peaking through a gap in my curtains, so I turn to check the time and gasp when I notice I’ve slept in for most of the morning. Sitting up my hand touches something and when I look down, I see a note. Angel, I didn’t want to leave you without saying goodbye, but you were sleeping so peacefully that I decided to let you rest. Have a good day and I will see you when I finish work later. Love Grant X I smile reading his note and put it on the bedside table before getting out of bed and heading to my shower. Time to start the day. Last night was amazing and my body still feels the effects of it all. However, as I enter the bathroom, my stomach flips and I dash to the toilet, emptying the contents from last night into the pan. I don’t understand why I keep doing this, I don’t feel unwell at all, but yet this keeps happening. “Angel?! Oh my gosh, are you alright?” “Mmmm,” I grunt through my discomfort as I feel a hand
His adams apple bobs as he swallows and his hands land on my hips gripping me a little firmly showing me how much he is controlling his desire at this moment. “I had dinner prepared. Are you hungry?” I say as I unbutton the top three buttons on his shirt. “Hmm yes but not for food.” I look up and he smiles before tipping his head down to the crook of my neck breathing in the scent of my skin and my body wash. “You smell devine, Angel.” He kisses my neck and I shudder with pleasure biting my lips to hold in a moan. Gripping his shirt to keep my composure I then move my palms across to his shoulders to slip his suit jacket off, it slides down his arms and puddles on the floor at his feet. I then move to his waistcoat and unbutton it before repeating my movements to slide it off like with the jacket. All the time he is kissing my neck with small pecks and the occasional nibble of his teeth on my skin. Stroking my palms along his arms I reach for his wrists to undo his cuff links
I am still in shock from his proposal. Who knew he could be so romantic? I wipe down the last table and glance at the clock. It’s 4.30 pm I have time to try to figure out how I’m going to repay him. I never held it against him that we didn’t celebrate valentines. In truth, I completely forgot about it, and I have never celebrated it, so I didn’t miss it anyway. But he seems so impassioned by this and resolute in his actions that I do not have the heart to deny him. My biggest concern now is answering him with the same passion that he has shown me. “I cannot believe you refused to answer him.” "And I cannot believe that you were complicit in it all. Where is your loyalty A.” “Oh, don’t give me that, Angel, we both know that what he did today was amazing. I only found out when the deed was done, and I got a text from him asking me to video your response. Now that poor man has no doubt spent hours unsure about his actions because you refused to answer him.” I feel guilty thinking th
She ends the call and Ellis stands frozen for a few moments. “She didn’t even thank me.” “Don’t read too much into it. Just do what you said you would and I am sure she will thank you later.” “Yeah, alright." "I’m going back to continue hounding restaurants for you.” “Okay. Let me know which one you manage to book.” He waves and walks out leaving me alone to wait. I try to focus on my emails while I wait but it is almost impossible, and I find myself watching the clock and my phone waiting for the message. Suddenly my phone screen lights up and I am quick to grab it. A - “Oh my god Grant! That was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I hope Ellis is taking notes.” I chuckle and hearing me Ellis pokes his head into my office. “What’s up?” “Your girlfriend has high standards.” “What?” I show him her message and his face falls. “Damnit! Why do you have to do this to me? I thought we were friends.” I laugh and another message comes through, this time it is the video I as
It’s been a week since Angela moved into the Greystone estate and everything has gone very well. I was both amazed and proud at how she responded to me in the bathroom. Up to that point, I had been worried about how she might respond to that side of me due to her past.Much to my delight she completely embraced the moment and afterwards, while we spent time with the others she kept fidgeting and sending me cheeky looks that held endless possibilities. At one point she reached out to caress my cock through my trousers while I was standing behind her and I leaned down to whisper in her ear.“Keep teasing me like this Angel and I will have to punish you later.”Her ears turned red, but she didn’t respond other than to cup my manhood and give it a squeeze which instantly had me hard. I knew she knew what she had done and that she had done it on purpose, but I got the confirmation when the others suggested moving her things inside and she giggled. “Laugh it up while you can love because l
I look around and realise we are in the ensuite bathroom, and he has me pressed against the closed door. “Say stop and I will, if anything we ever do becomes too intense for you, I want you to say so immediately, understood, Angel?” I nod as my body shivers with anticipation of what it may experience in the next few moments. “Use your words love.” “I understand, Sir.” I don’t know what possessed me to add that last word at the end of my statement but the way his eyes darken, and his breath quickens I know it was the right thing to say. “Oh kitten, what am I going to do with you?” The promise in his voice is almost my undoing as my thighs clench his waist and he presses into me with a groan. Bracing me against the door he leans back and reaches for the edge of my shirt before quickly lifting it up and over my head. Dropping the garment to the floor his hands reach up to cup my breasts and knead them as he leans in to kiss my jaw and down my neck. I gasp from the multiple sensa
He accepted! I almost don’t believe that anything that is happening right now is real. But the truth is that it is real, and I could not be happier. Walking into this house, aside from being overwhelmed by my emotions from my memories of my past, I found myself intimidated by its size. I am used to my small flat and minimal furniture so seeing the size of Greystone Manor was almost too much. I am immensely grateful that Jack, Simon, Anya, and Ellis all agreed to move in with us. The idea of everyone living here together warms my heart and I am certain that this is the right choice. We enter the corridor for the bedrooms located in the left wing and Beth leads us while pointing out which rooms are which. There is a large master bedroom at the front of the wing above the library overlooking the entrance to the property and another the same size at the back of the wing above the kitchen, overlooking the gardens. In betwe
