Dinner is a silent disaster. After Brett started crying once more in my arms I sort of traded him to cook. It was funny how a total stranger was the first to act like a wife in this house I call mine. And worse thing is she even looked the part.
When I first saw Shantel, I didn't take her for a simple mom who cooks. Well she was cooking in a skimpy dress, in front of my husband so she's not really simple. Now what's bothering me is what she wants exactly and she was shirtless the first time I spoke to her, on my husband's phone to be exact. Their relationship doesn't seem romantic as such but I can't shake off the feeling of there being more between them and I hate it.Currently, she's feeding another one of her kids. His about two years old and very adorable with his big brown eyes and cute baby face. The three little children all look like they either came from somewhere in Asia, Russia and the smallest looks somewhat Samoan. But the one that's got me thinking isI look up at the mention of my name and find Herman kneeling in front of me. The crease on his forehead told me he was worried even before I looked into his eyes and saw a pained expression in them. Is he feeling the way I'm feeling?The thought tags at my heart strings and a sob escapes my lips, like a cough. "Hey," he came closer and pulled me into him."Herman I can't," I sob into the crook of his neck and let all I want to say come out."What is the problem?" That simple question sent my mouth into the release of a bunch of frenzied words that somehow didn't make any sense. "Did you take alcohol?" He asked after I was done blabbering nonsense and he looked down at me after pulling away."Forget about the alcohol...why don't you want to fuck me? Is it because of Shantels that you don't even want to touch me?" His brows furrowed. "Thea, that's what I want to do in this whole world and it's not because of anyone.""Then why hav
The black blindfold covered my eyes and I felt Herman's fingers run down my arms after he was done putting it on me. He kisses my neck sweetly sending shivers up and down my spine and in the wake of his touch goosebumps."I love seeing you like this....under my command. Craving my touch like you crave for the sweetness of oxygen once the supply is cut short." I feel his fingers unclip my bra, making my breath hitch. The soft and warm feeling of his lips on my back followed after making me squirm like a little girl. He chuckled. A throaty deep sound that made my panties wetter and my core throb. "Herman please... enough games. Your killing me." I plead, hoping he'd at least take me like a cave man once he heard those words."No." He says directly in my ear, embracing me in his arms. I felt his manhood poke my ass and the feeling was like torture. "Why?" I uttered the question breathless turning my face blindly in hopes of capturing his lips. He l
Lifting my legs and putting them on his shoulders, he changed his pace and the feeling of euphoria started to build up more. His balls were slapping my ass as he hit dipper inside me.I kept spitting out nonsense as he rendered me senseless. "Don't come.... open your eyes Thea," he told me and again I found myself in between a rock and a hard place. "Fuck!" Lowering my legs, he removed his dick from me before turning me on my back. "Don't come."I didn't get to ask why as he shoved into me again. "Ah!" I moan and bite my lip hard as he thrashed thunderously into my pussy. "Shit!" We both say right before he groans and I moan loudly. If sex was like this, I should have done it with someone before hand. But I'm so glad Herman is my first.He slaps my ass hard and squeezes it making me groan. "What was that for?""You came," he growled still thrashing into me and I wonder how I did without realizing it. "Hold on I'm not done." He says, slamming harde
A kiss is placed on my right shoulder sweetly as we maintain silence. His lips feel warm against my skin and I lean into him more to feel the warmth of his body, against the semi hot water we are seated in, in the black bathtub. It's only now that i cherish these moments with him and it's only now that I feel all the scars his body has. Especially on his arms.It's also only now that i realize how limited our time is together. For after tomorrow, he's leaving for Russia and I don't know when I'm going to see him again. This is how quickly life changes when you get closer to someone you supposedly wanted to hate forever. As it is said, ' there's a thin line between love and hate.' What I didn't realize is how thin."How long we'll you be gone for?" I voice out my concern hoping he'd answer me truthfully."I don't know," he answers, leaning back into the bathtub and away from me but not fully. The water around me splashes as I turn around to face him."What do you mean?" I press him.He
My eyes snap open to a lonely bed, blinding light and the feeling of numbness inside my chest. Lifting my tired limbs, I make my way to the bathroom in an almost daze and stare blankly at a sad woman in the mirror. Even after all that time sleeping, the bags under my eyes are still so visible and the dull ache between my legs a blissful reminder of what I had done. Sighing, I open the cabinet the mirror is hiding behind it and a plastic bottle falls out. The small circles inside it rattling as it collided with the hard surface of the counter top. I pick them up and read the label. "Sertraline," I read out loud and try to remember anything I know on the drag. Turning the little bottle I struggle to read the instructions before giving up. Putting it back I reach for my toothbrush and drop other medicine bottles along side the one holding sertraline even after I just returned it. "Fuck," I curse under my breath feeling shorter than I pictured myself to be.After managing to grab my to
•Unknown POV• TWO WEEKS BEFORE •The waves beat at the rocks beneath me and I watch them intently. Moving my hand, the liquor in my glass swells and I love the serenity the atmosphere around me brings. "Sir, the mission was completed. Both Targets were eliminated." One of my men reports, disturbing my peace.Sighing I turn around to face him," One moment of peace and you disturb me.""Sorry, sir-""Keep it. Where's the girl?" I ask wanting so much to get her here."She is with him sir, he took her with him the other night."I watch the lights in my beautiful mansion through the white curtains that dance in the wind from every window facing the cliff side. She was supposed to be mine, she was supposed to be brought to me.I clench my hand tightly until the glass in the cup in my fist pops. Spluttering wine everywhere and cutting into my hand. I welcome the pain and start making my way to the house."Did the bastard marry her?" I ask, feigning calmness."Yes." I stop, turning to look
The physical contact between me and these people I didn't know was uncomfortable as I was thrown from one arm to another. Who would have thought that an overly reserved and private person like Herman would have such affectionate relatives. Well all of them except for Shantel and her mother, who seemed to have had it out for me from the beginning.After those overly touchy introductions, I found myself hiding in Herman's office. Our room isn't fully furnished yet and I had originally planned on faking a bathroom break and secretly cornering Herman in his office. He, of course wasn't in here. He must have left for Brooklyn. Whoever his meeting over there a sure question to me.Now sitting here all alone on Herman's very comfortable office chair and simultaneously missing lunch, I sigh. Since morning I've had people pulling left right and center, forcing me into conversations I had no idea of, about baby names and mafia ruling. All this because of Dante. Remind me to kill him later. Now
•FIVE YEARS BEFORE •"Thea!" "Coming mum!" I called back taking one last look in the mirror at myself. The shimmery pink ball gown I had on made me feel like a princess as I span around loving the way the heavy skirt of the dress made me feel."Princess we are running..." Ricardo stopped dead in his trucks when he saw me and I blushed looking down at my dress."How do I look?" I asked him shyly. He took a few steps towards me and cupped my face, tucking a lose strand of hair behind my ear. "Beautiful..... absolutely beautiful." Pecking my forehead, he stepped back and smiled brightly at me. " They'll never know what hit them."I blushed," not if I don't tie my hair." I gestured to the pink ribbon around my wrist and Rico let out a small chuckle."Correct and I know just the person to do that for you. In the car, now let's go." He dragged me out of my room and down to the lobby of the hotel we were staying in for the week. Russia was very cold this time of year and I was grateful th
