He... kissed me! Fvck. My ex-husband just kissed me! His warm lips still linger in mine... the aftereffect is too palpable.Suddenly, he grabbed my wrist and mumbled, "Come on," before he pulled me away from the office door of my boss!I finally got all my senses back, i shot him a glare with bewilderment on it."Hey, wait! Where are you taking me? And why are we rushing, huh?!" Slightly annoyed, i asked. His bored eyes bore into mine."They're going out already. Do you want to be caught doing such eavesdropping?" And it dawned on me, his fair point."Oh. Right..." I blinked. How stupid of me! Well, that's because he distracted me with his sudden presence! But then, he really got a point though.We only stopped at the next hallway, he was still holding my wrist and i can tell by now, it already has a reddened mark due to his grip. I took my hand away from his holds, he looks a bit amused as he released me. I just realized right at this moment that he's not wearing his coat, and just
I was partly preoccupied the next hours until my duty for the whole day had ended. I didn't see any glimpse of Lorcan or even his halfbrother again after my unlikely encounter with the two.I'm in the middle of fixing my things to scoop them all in my handbag after doing some retouching when the door opened and it spat out my boss who has his signature smiles. Creepy smiles, in correction."Hey..." "Hey, Sir..." I stepped out from my table. He casually walked near me. I was attentive. "Is there anything else to finish?" I asked normally.His brow shot up and he chuckled, shaking his head slightly. "No, Miss Rae. I just wanna offer you a drive home." He grinned. My forehead crinkled."But i obviously have my own wheel, Sir." I controlled my voice to sound so sarcastic."I know. I know, dear! But i really want to drive you home every after work. Your scent still lingers in my car the last time you occupied the passenger's seat though." He said, like it's all a normal thing to say in f
"Blaire Hudson," an old friend in junior years."The one and only!" Her green eyes gleamed.She's a brunette with skin as that of a milk, almond shape of eyes, slender figure and a five-six footer. She was a famous cheerleader in Moerson High way back then when i met her. Everyone in school loves and hates her at the same time. She was a friendly attention-seeker girl in pompoms who was fond of bringing almost half of the heartthrobs in the upper to lower batch.Basically, she's the acting queen bee of our batch and I was just an ordinary good student who was obsessed with books. We were inseparable buddies those times, she was hated by many and i could understand that. She's a self-centered bitch full of toxicity, but still i stayed as her friend. Because she was my only friend, too. We were the only best friends of each other, a bitch and a nerd. Until then, i discovered her truer colors behind her white sheep's clothing.I was on my way to the library that time to give back the bo
"You can calm down now, Miss Rae. The baby is still intact, alive and kicking." The doctor smiled as he announced it to us."Oh good Lord, thank you!" Sydney exclaimed happily.While i couldn't contain the relief i felt after hearing it. It was as if a certain bile was removed from my throat, so I could finally breathe freely. "Thank God! Thank you, doc..." I murmured, still in a state of gratefulness. "You're very much welcome! Well, you have a little fighter there. It's amazing, a phenomenon. That was too much blood lost but it didn't give up. You have a strong child in the making, Miss Rae." He proudly said which made me smile even more.Sydney was smiling while caressing my hair, she looks happy and relieved too. My hand found its way to my tummy, gently caressing it. That's right, baby. Keep holding on. I'm so proud of you, strong soul. Don't leave momma, okay? I can never be in myself again if ever that happens. "What a powerful baby you have there. You deserve rest after re
Lorcan, my ex-husband who just divorced me several weeks ago is standing before the door, with a darkened expression, sharp raging eyes and controlled breathing. He looks enraged, it's actually scary but the thing here is it sent calmness in me and i suddenly felt safe... knowing he came."Mr. Amadeus!" Mr. Williams immediately moved his body away from me, looking shocked and bothered by Lorcan's presence. "I-i wasn't informed that you will be here!" He looks pathetically frightened or something.I bit my lip, i saw how my hands were noticeably fidgeting though relief slowly consuming me. Lorcan's hand found its way to my waist as he pulled me closely to him. My feet obediently made a step to his side. "Well, it's a very good idea to come over here personally, huh. After what i saw, and if i didn't come early... you motherfucker." Lorcan's words dripped coldly, it's giving me goosebumps.Mr. Williams eyes outstretched wide. "Whoa, whoa! Wait a minute, Mr. Amadeus. I didn't do anythin
Whew! I thought he was planning to kiss me! The fuck, I'm looking like a thirsty lady here. It's so embarrassing that i can't look at his eyes straight anymore. My face was heating up and I can't deny the sudden disappointment drizzled to me.Shit this Lorcansick in me, she just can't behave properly according to my will, can she?!"Why would you invite an ex-wife in the first place?" I asked blatantly as i took it from him and read its content.It's really an invitation to her mother's birthday celebration! Mrs. Helena Amadeus... the ever so sophisticated and meticulous woman i have ever known. I didn't know she was about to enter her fifty's era, with that babyfaced of hers the last time we have met. "Just accept it, woman." His irritated voice made me look up at him again.He's gazing down at me. I unintentionally pouted, his eyes moved to it. I cleared my throat, he seems to notice it so he brought back his eyes on mine."I'm your ex-wife, Lorcan. Don't you get it? And i told you
"I-isn't it obvious? I'm leaving. Besides, we're done fucking, right?" Trying to be brave, i slowly faced him.His expression made me want to gulp all over again. Looking at him right now and closely, it's like he had his half-bath. Hair noticeably damp and some droplets of water trickling down his uhm... bare upper body. Because yeah, he's topless in front of me and a mere towel is the only thing covering his down part. The confidence, huh. Well... given that figure, of course it's so right to show it with all the guts.When he muttered a curse, it took back my attention to the current situation. He ran his fingers through his hair, looking frustrated but why does it look hot in my eyes?"That wasn't fucking, making love is the right term." He corrected in a deep bedroom voice. Oh come again? "Making... love, you mean?" I took a deep breath and gulped before i continued. "Why, Lorcan? Do you love me at all?" I asked with a shaky voice. Damn it! My shallow tears are approaching and I
Later at night when Sydney suddenly dragged me to the nearest mall in Central City because according to her, we must buy some new dresses for tomorrow's event. And when i say dresses, it's for us to have many options to decide what to wear among them."Look, Tash! I'mma try this one!" My friend sounded so enthusiastic as she showed me a glittering above knee maroon dress in the hanger."I think that will really suit your skin tone," i commented, she giggled and went to the fitting room.Shrugging, i continued finding my own dress. Actually i had already picked three different brands but still, none of them satisfied me in a way that i could never seek another. I know sounds overreacting but i just wanna be presentable and comfortable tomorrow night. At last, after 16479 years of finding perfect dresses for us--- well, kidding aside, it took us almost two hours rather. We walked to the counter to pay for an estimated ten dresses we bought and afterwards, she pulled me to her car while
