ELENAWhen I heard the knock on my door, I was expecting Jane. Or even Jason, to an extent.But I was in for a harsh surprise as I saw who it was. And as if that wasn't enough, he was sporting an annoyed expression, like he held a grudge against me.Colton shut the door behind him, and slowly advanced into the room, staring straight at me. And I held his gaze, not wanting to be beat in the eye game.Once he stopped in front of my desk, he cleared his throat and just stared at me in silence, causing me to frown. But I said nothing too. Two could play the game.Infact, to add more spice to the game, I crossed my arms over my chest and leaned back into my chair, still holding his gaze.Finally, when I thought tears will run down my eyes, Colton looked away and cursed, shutting g his eyes and massaging them. "Why the hell did you think it was wise to keep such an important information from me, while we had the time of our life, strolling around that damn resort." His voice wasn't raised i
JASONIt was definitely a long flight, and I could feel a little bit of tiredness start to seep in, but I couldn't let it deter me from my mission. Which was to spend the rest of the day with my mother and make her happy.Even if my father was mostly absent all the time, I knew his death still hit her hard. After all, this time, there was no hope of ever seeing him again.There was a blackcar waiting for me as I strolled out of the airport with one hand in my pocket, and the other fiddling with my tie. Just for effect, I had worn a pair of glasses. I knew the paparazzi would recognize me anyway, but heck if I cared about that."Hello, Sir." Tom, my mother's driver greeted, as he opened the door of the car for me."Tom." I nodded, before ducking, and getting inside of the car.Once I was well seated, Tom started the car and paused to look at me through the rearview mirror. "Mrs Richardson asked for a carrot cake, from her favorite cake shop." He said, looking away and ahead. "I just th
JASONI was full even before I got to the delicious carrot cake, but I didn't mind as I scooped a good amount, and put in my mouth. The flavor was something else, covering every corner of my mouth. It wasn't too sweet...just the right amount."So, are you going to tell me what the heck is going on, and why I have to find out that you got married through the news, and your brother who I had to force to tell me?" My mother asked, cutting short my little enjoyment.I cleared my throat, setting down my spoon as I looked up to face her. "Mum, you will not understand." I said, leaning into my chair. The fact was, despite knowing she was going to ask, and despite all the mental preparations I had made, I was still not ready to say anything yet. She crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair too. "The least you could do was introduce her to me first. So I could see the kind of woman my son was about to get married to." She said haughtily. "It's kind of embarrassing and hurtful that I didn
JASON"You keep staring at that picture so much." My mother said with a sad smile, bringing out a little cup she had made and lifting it up so I could see it. I slowly took it from her and just stared at it. She had never told us how she had learned to make stuff like these, and boy, did sheake them so well. Paul had made sure to equip the very huge room with every machine or tool she needed, just so she could so what she obviously loved doing. At first, she had been reluctant to sell any, mostly giving it out at charity, but after lunch persuasion when I was about fourteen, she had agreed to save some beautiful mater pieces for her yearly art showcase, which had become a huge success over the years.I put the cup down and sighed. "It's nothing. You know we are always curious about him. Neither you, nor dad, ever told us much." I said with a shrug, picking up a beautiful intricatly designed bowl, which I knew had to be on the next showcase. "Save this one." I immediately said, "it lo
JASONDue to the time difference, I got back a little after 3am, knowing fully well that Elena was going to be asleep, which was okay by me.I didn’t want to have to explain to her about my whereabouts. At least not when my eyes were almost closing and all I could think of, was sleeping.The meeting with my mother had actuall been relaxing, and I was glad I went there, despite her insisting every now and then, that she wanted to meet Elena.I groaned as I kicked my foot against a vase, just before the beginning of the staircase that would lead me to the bedroom.If there was one thing I hated, it was the pain that came with kicking one’s toes. I would rather take a punch. And to think I had taken of my shoes immediately I opened the door, just so I wouldn’t make much noise as I climbed up.I cursed in annoyance, wiggling the toes and started advancing towards the top of the stairs. It was in the haze of my annoyance, that my eyes caught sight of something that lay on the floor.It was
JASONI was sitting in the office, contemplating on whether to go talk to Elena or not about the previous might, since I had woken up really late and hadn't met her in the house, when the door was pushed open with so much force, that it banged really hard against the wall.I jolted out of my thoughts and seat, to see Bethany walk into the office with the most innocent and calm expression ever, while Colton rushed in front behind."I told you, you need to have an appointment, before you get in he_" he tried, but she just interrupted him with a raised hand."And I told you I don't need an appointment to come seey fiance." She said with a sly smile on her face.I raised my brow at what she had just said, and opened my mouth to say something, when Colton beat me to it."Excuse you." He said, then looked from me, to Bethany.Jeez. I didn't need this right now.I walked around my desk, and met her in the middle of the very large office. "It's okay, Colton. I will handle it from here." I fin
ELENAMy question was left unanswered as the moment I finished speaking, Jason just casually walked past me, making me look at him with a frown, and instead of leaning like I thought he intended to, just turned the lock of the door.Okay…I wasn’t expecting that at all..“What’s going on? Why did you lock the door?” I asked as he just stood with his back to me, and his hands still on the door.Okay…now he was making me worried.I had been in a meeting with some of the junior staff in the lowers floor when I had first started to notice the whispers going on on that floor. At first, I had thought it was just normal office gossip or they had seen something on the internet. But once I they had started staring at me, I had gotten suspicious as fuck that whatever it was that was going on, had something to do with me.I had been on my way up, heeling conscious as hell, when I had heard someone mention something about a woman coming to Jason’s office to cause a scene.My guess had instantly g
JASONI didn’t know what I needed until I kissed Elena.Once I did, I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I felt at peace.And…I wanted to be inside her.But we were in the office, and that went against every principle I had…Gosh.Elena pressed up against me, letting her hands fall to my chest as she pressed. Fuck…it felt so good.“Hmmm…Elena…” I whispered against her lips while my hands busied themselves with her butt. How were they so soft, and yet so firm at the same time?“Hmmm?” She said, sounding distracted.I pulled away, trying to keep myself from doing the unthinkable, like placing her over my office desk…shit. No.“Fuck..I want you.” I said, rubbing myself against her to show her just how much I meant what I said.She licked her lips and looked up at me.“So…what’s stopping you from having me?” She asked, with her lips raised in a mischievous grin. And there were those glints in her eyes.Only this time, I could tell whatever it was she was thinking about,
