MY SECOND CHANCE HUSBAND 50
"You don't need to give in. There are women like Sabrina Carper, who would use their tongues to clean the floor beneath their feet. You don't need my signature" those words were bitter on Elena's tongue, but they were still true. "You're wrong" "You like the challenge, Aaron. You like knowing that there is someone who doesn't idolize your existence. That's the reason for your attraction, and when you realize that I am into you, you're going to discard me." "Why would I do that?" he frowned, a clear expression of confusion. "It's what you do with your achievements" "They are indifferent" "That's what I am going to be. Indifferent" "If you could be indifferent, I wouldn't be obsessed" At that moment, Aaron framed Elena's face between his hands. He wished she was sober enough to react to a kiss, but he did not think she was. "As long as you insist on a contract, on taking me to your slaughterhouse or on acting like we are good friends, I don't believe it" Aaron thought about th

She leaned forward. Elena caressed the man's symmetrical face, tracing each perfectly sculpted detail with her fingers. Her nails lightly scratched her skin. The man found himself trapped in that moment, in that feeling, in those blue eyes. "I need you in a red bikini" "I like you drunk. At least we're more than friends when alcohol runs through your veins." "Don't exaggerate. I will remember this conversation" Aaron smirked. The truth was that neither of them knew for sure if that moment would still make sense in the morning. Elena was afraid that the sun would kill the magic that the night carried. Because every other time, Aaron seemed to regret giving in, of doing more than he was used to doing. "I doubt it" "You bet, princess. We're going to Malibu next weekend. Buy a red bikini, no ribbons." Aaron had many properties. Some were his father's and passed into his name when he took over leadership of the Enterprise Granger. But there was one house, in particular, that he did

The truth was that that madam had liked Elena from the first moment, even though she hadn't met her on the best possible occasion. "Elena, don't worry. It's just a dress. But if it was in my hair, you'd be in trouble" Dora smiled. "The hair is intact, thank God" They were basically the same height, although Elena was wearing high heels and Dorothy was not. They exchanged a kind look and comfortable smiles. Elena was a little embarrassed, as she knew that the damage to Dora's dress would be irreparable. On the other hand, Dora wasn't worried. "I was leaving. I will take off these wet clothes as soon as I am home." "I am really sorry. Is there anything I can do? Maybe buy another dress, since this stain won't come out" Elena looked at the wet part of the dress once again, sure that it was a lost piece. "No, dear. Let's not worry about frivolities. I am leaving, anyway" Dorothy tried to reassure the beautiful woman. Elena would respond, insisting that Dora charge her something. H

"I am wrong?" "Your life may have been perfect all along, but mine was shit," Elena snapped, not caring how loud she was speaking. "All girls like you say the same. What was your biggest problem, princess? Not getting a convertible at eighteen?" "Yes, Aaron. And do you want to know more? I did not get an apartment at nineteen either." Elena was not the type of woman to put herself in the position of a victim. She hated being pitied. So, at that moment, the only thing she wanted to do was run out of the room. Only away from Aaron would she have the peace she needed to clear her troubled thoughts. The beautiful woman began to walk in long strides towards the door, but she was stopped before she could make it. Aaron caught up with her, and pushed her body against the panoramic glass none too gently. Before she could think, the man's body was pressed against hers. "Fuck, princess. Make it easy for me. I wouldn't be here if Sabrina, or any other woman, was important." "They must h

Aaron got out of the car and walked around it, opening the door for Elena. She thanked him with a smile, and then they headed out to the deck. The beautiful woman was wearing ripped denim shorts, and a white t-shirt with spaghetti straps that framed her breasts attractively. On the other hand, Aaron was wearing black jeans and a gray t-shirt. It wasn't like him to adhere to the city's hot climate, much less to wear light colors. Like the owner himself, the yacht was grayish. Some parts, in sunlight, looked like chrome. They climbed the stairs and reached the top of the yacht. Alex, Aaron's personal bodyguard, was also on board. He greeted his boss with a simple greeting, and remained near the stairs to keep watch over the perimeter. Inside the yacht, there were three other people. Joseph, Aaron's friend, and two blondes. One of them appeared to be an employee, as she was wearing a uniform. The captain was also on board, but in the upper cabin. "Hello" Joseph said, in a cheerful

Aaron was losing what little patience he had. He couldn't help but feel angry when his friend spoke of Elena lustfully. Even though it was Joseph's joke, Granger felt nerves boiling in her mind. The man did not usually feel jealous. He barely knew the meaning of the word. But, as always, with Elena things were different. "You did not answer my calls, I missed you" "I am counting," Granger said, tapping her index finger against the watch on her wrist. Joseph laughed, pleased with his unique ability to irritate Granger. At least he was sure he wouldn't lose his own mind, or his job. Aaron's cell phone began vibrating on the table before another joke could be made by Carter, and he answered it before even looking at the cal

"Are you busy?" the man's voice had exactly the effect Elena feared. It was as if her senses were trained to identify the sounds that Aaron's mouth uttered. Elena breathed in and out before responding because she knew the chances of stuttering were high. "Not anymore." "Then tell me. How about dinner tonight?" he pressed. "It would be nice to get out for some fresh air." "I think the same. How about Los Angeles?" "It's a beautiful city," Elena replied as the elevator's steel doors opened, and she stepped inside. "Let me rephrase. How about dinner in Los Angeles?" "Just to show me yo

Aaron walked to the balcony access doors and closed them. The truth was, he did not like places too airy. "I never lived in this house, Little Angel," he replied. "What?" "We lived in New York, and when my parents moved, I decided to stay," Aaron murmured, not very interested. He used a control to close the automatic curtains, and once again the lovely lady found herself impressed by the modernity of the house. Not that it was unusual, but she liked how every detail in the Granger mansion seemed to be well-planned. "Your life sounds interesting," Elena commented. She sat on Aaron's bed, which was covered by a blue sheet. The color was very similar to the man's eyes, and perh
