I couldn’t take my eyes away from that beautiful golden Cognac eyes that gazed at me with surprise while I was still rooted in place. Damian.. He’s also here, I thought. Suddenly I remembered what I had witnessed, and my eyes darted toward his hand that was holding a woman’s shoulder. When I saw his hand, he yanked away his hold as though the woman’s shoulder had burned him. A bitter and amused smile grazed my lips. There was no use to it now, I’d seen him holding his new girlfriend.. “Leah!” Suddenly I heard a woman’s voice calling me, and I snapped my head to my side. “Aliyah!” I exclaimed in relief when I saw my friend coming toward me. I went to her, and we met in the middle, hugging and kissing each other’s cheeks as greetings. “You look great, Leah. Oh wait.. Should I call you Kat now?” she asked. I laughed at her. “You look great too, Aliyah. You should call me Leah,” I told her. She was one o
Those strong arms that had always held me when I slept.. Those strong arms that had always provided me with a sense of security.. Those strong arms that I’d been dreaming of for the first four months we’d broken up.. And now those strong arms were now around my body holding me tight.. “Baby girl.. I’ve mis..” I heard him say, but I quickly cut him off. “We have nothing to talk about, Damian.” And I pushed his arms away and rushed to the car before he could do anything. “Drive, quickly!” I said fast to the driver, and he drove off at my words, leaving behind the man I’d once loved so much. My body trembled and tears stung my eyes as I sat in the car along the drive back home. I thanked the driver when I reached my house and entered it, tossing my key on the key bowl, and went to my room straight away, throwing myself on my bed and letting myself cry. Damian.. What are you doing? Why must you do that? It was h
Huh?! Why did he slam the spoon down? I looked at him and saw that his face had darkened and there was intense anger in his eyes.“So you’ve become that kind of girl, huh?!” he sneered.That kind of girl?“How much?” he asked with venom lacing his voice.How much.. what? How much did I pay them?“How much did they pay for your “service?”?” He put his fingers into quotation marks as he said the word service.I gaped at him. Did he think.. How dare he?! Instead of hurting me, his words angered me.“You can't afford me,” I replied and smirked at him.“How much?!” he shouted and slammed his fist against the table, which managed to make me jump a little.“Your shares in the Castilles Hotel. All of it.” I smirked again and blurted out the one thing I knew was important to him. He
My eyes fluttered open and met with a pure white ceiling. Where am I? It didn't look like the ceiling in my home. I tried to move and realized that I had an IV drip attached to my hand, and I was wearing an oxygen mask. I was also wearing a hospital gown. What happened? Why am I in a hospital? How long have I been here? I looked around and saw my precious little boy and Rai’s mom on the sofa area of the room. Little Rai looked like he was doing his homework with the guidance of his grandma. “Mom? Rai?” I called them with a croaked voice while removing the oxygen mask from my face. Little Rai was the first to notice me. “Mommy, you are awake!” he ran to my side excitedly, followed by Rai’s mom. “Katarina dear, you are awake,” she smiled that motherly smile of hers and pressed a button on the side of my bed. “What..” I tried asking her, but my voice was too hoarse. Rai’s mom went to a table and cam
“Uncle Damian!” little Rai called the man cheerfully again. Huh.. My little boy seems to know this man - Damian, that was his name. I tried to recall if I knew anyone by that name, but no, no one came to mind.Little Rai quickly placed the food container he was holding on a table nearest to him and ran to Damian excitedly with open arms. Damian squatted down and opened his arms to welcome little Rai. But then suddenly little Rai’s demeanor changed as he stopped to stand in front of Damian abruptly. He was angry now.. “You promised not to make Mommy sad!” little Rai said with anger and karate-chopped one of Damian’s shoulders. I was aghast by his action. Why did he hit his Uncle? What if Damian got angry and scolded him? “Rai, you can’t..” I began saying and was about to get off the bed to take little Rai away and protect him, and also told him that he couldn't just hit anyone as he liked when I saw Damian pull little Rai into his arms.
I woke up with a sob.. What.. Why? Those questions circled through my mind as I got off the bed. I made my way to my kitchen, taking a bottle of water from the fridge and drinking. As I wiped my lips, flashes of images came to my mind - of a strong arm encircling my body, a deep sexy soothing baritone voice telling me that he loved me. I could even catch a whiff of his scent as I inhaled the air around me. It all felt so familiar.. Hugging my own body, I let myself feel all the familiarity and emotions that came with them, and tears started running down my cheeks without me realizing it. All I could think about was.. Who was he? Why did he feel so familiar? And why did I miss him so? I heard the unlocking sound of my front door, and I quickly wiped my tears away. I knew who unlocked my door; only one person would come this early in the morning - Damian. He and Rai’s mom were the only ones who had the key to my place.
My eyes squinted to see it more clearly.. It couldn't be.. And my eyes darted to my side, toward the real thing. Oh my Gawd, he really is big!“Kat..” I heard him, and I looked at him and was mesmerized by his golden eyes that were now twinkling with mischievousness. “Did you just check out my dick?” I heard him ask sexily.“Yes..” I answered him while still being captivated by his gaze.Huh? What?!“No! No! I wasn't checking your dick!” I quickly corrected myself but I felt my whole face going red. Oh my God, how embarrassing! I hid my face behind my palms when suddenly my head jerked up in confusion.“You okay, Kat?” he asked as he looked at my reaction.“I just experienced a deja vu,” I told him. Which man ever asked me if I just checked his dick out? I tried to remember, but as usual, only a headache came to me.&ldquo
He tastes so good.. He feels so good.. I thought as our tongues entwined with each other. The man pulled back, but I pulled his head back to me. I didn't want the kiss to stop. I couldn't get enough of his kiss. But he kept pulling back until I heard him say breathily, “Baby girl.. Please let me breathe first.” My eyes flew open, hearing his voice, and met with his closed eyes. I looked down and saw myself on his lap, straddling him with his large hands on my waist. I looked back up again and saw my hands on his nape. When did I.. Oh my God! I just kissed Damian, Rai’s best friend! I quickly stood up and scrambled away from him. “I-I-I.. I’m sorry,” I stuttered and apologized with embarrassment and turned around to flee to Rai’s room as fast as my short legs could carry me. Reaching the room, I threw myself on the bed and buried my face in a pillow. Why? Why? WHY?! Why did I kiss Dami
