They were near the end of their date when Adonis invited her out to a fine dining restaurant which was unusual. Vian grew up with all the money so she was used with dining at those high end restaurants but when she recalled, it was the first time he had ever invited her out to one. The only fine dining she had ever done with him before were ones done at family dinner party. Never before it was just the two of them which made Vian a bit confused because it was only two months since he started working and suddenly he brought her there. At first she was a bit worried of his spending habits because she was not sure he understood the principle of wealth building considering he was never exposed to it before.
Yet he was so sure that everything was fine, she learnt enough things about men to not mention it to him. As far as she kne

She prepared herself to go to her room when she suddenly heard a woman’s voice calling her name.She turned around and saw a blonde woman standing there. Vian stopped in her track as the woman approached her.

Their relationship had gotten a bit closer ever since their last date. It was a good thing Adonis started asking her out, they had sorted out everything that had distanced them from each other before.

"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced."-James Baldwin-***Vian waited for the man to show up to retrieve the gift and in the meantime she was busy people gazing and observing her surrounding, being in the present moment had always been quite calming for her. Instead of worrying to much about things she could not control she let her body be in the present moment. Though the serenity would not last long because soon enough she saw a familiar figure from afar.It was none other than Carson and the history repeated itself. Actually no, she never had any moments with him like this but her initial instinct was to run away as fast as possible from where she was. Her feeling was telling her to go but her legs felt like they were glued to the table floor and by the time she was able to stand up he was already approaching her.“Vian, I am glad I am finally able to meet you

"The interesting thing is why we're so desperate for this anesthetic against loneliness."-David Foster Wallace-***Carson laid down in his bed after he was done playing with the random prostitute he had hired to accompany him that night. The red haired woman had her arms wrapped around his chest while her face faced him. The woman had a smudged red lips on the side and slightly messed up hair, but it was the aftermath of their sex session which lasted for nearly an hour.“How do you like it?” She asked him as she trailed her nails across his chest in a seductive motion, subtly making an attempt to arouse him again. He turned to her and put on a fake smile as a response, barely saying a word, which was more his style. He enjoyed her performance but she was not enough for him. Nothing was really enough for him and he did not know why. No matter how many women he had sex with, it was never enough for him. Not because o

It was not as if she was innocent or she did not know about it, she knew exactly what kind of man Carson was. At this point his reputation was no longer a secret, yet he still made her go and for Adonis, it was simply unforgivable. The woman might be the head of the house and yes she might be the eldest which meant by nature he needed to respect her.However, the more he figured out about how messed up she was the less respect he had for her. Their relationship was already questionable in term of civil rating, but it became worse after the events which had been happening as of lately. The only thing he could b

From the scent of calming familiarity, blends of different floral or tea scented massage oils mixed with a bit of wood, the perfect placement of lighting at each corner and the soft, relaxing music which you could hear the minute you were there worked like magic to bring you in a mood of serenity. It was the best place to play with your senses.Though one could do spa at home, nothing could beat the experience at a real spa, unless you have a professional bringing home the spa into your house, which includes the interiors needed, for some people, at home spa actually meant at home spa. The manor lacked it despite its luxury design, but once the two of them moved out from the manor, she would definitely ha

What do you want to eat? Let’s go have dinner together.” She was hungry but she was not really feeling anything heavy. She thought about it for a second and listened to her gut.“I want to eat something light, maybe some salad. Can we go to a salad bar in town?”“Okay, my love. Let’s go and have some salad if that’s what you’re craving.” He drove the car to a salad bar at the heart of the city. Of course, they served more
