Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 35 : Old Family Feud
*David*The anxiety gnawed at me, a relentless beast that refused to be tamed. I paced the length of my penthouse, clutching my phone as if it were a lifeline. Grace hadn't responded to any of my messages or calls since our last conversation, and Sarah had shut me out too. Their silence was deafening, leaving me with a sinking sensation in the pit of my stomach.I couldn't calm down until I knew what had transpired between them. Was my daughter alright? Was Grace? Why didn't she respond? My thoughts raced, each more terrifying than the last. I thought about getting inside my car and going after them, but I knew that was probably going to make things worse.I had never seen Sarah that distraught in my life. I couldn't stop blaming myself, and the guilt I was feeling was threatening to swallow me whole.The night dragged on, and eventually, it claimed me–I succumbed to a restless slumber, gripping my phone tightly, hoping for some word from either of them.Morning light crept into
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 36 : A Heart in Turmoil
*Grace*Days slipped by like sand through my fingers, each one more agonizing than the last. The fight with Sarah and the knowledge that I had single-handedly destroyed her relationship with her father weighed heavily on my conscience.My once-vibrant world had turned into a dull gray existence, devoid of joy or hope. Unable to focus at work, I called in sick, seeking solace in the sanctuary of my apartment. I became a prisoner inside my own home, trying to pretend the rest of the world didn't exist.Yet, even the silence within my apartment mirrored the desolation in my heart. The television played on, its sound reduced to a mere murmur, as if even the inanimate objects around me sensed the gravity of the situation.I wrestled with the haunting memories of my actions, grappling with the consequences that rippled through the lives of those I cared about. David's persistent calls went unanswered, each ring of the phone a stab to my already tattered heart. To shield myself from f
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 37 : Family Support
*David*I leaned back in my leather chair, my fingers tapping rhythmically on the mahogany desk as my thoughts wandered to the one person I was dying to see. Despite the argument with Sarah and the uncertainty the relationship with my daughter held at that moment, my yearning for Grace only intensified with each passing day. Her laughter, her touch, the way she looked at me with those piercing emerald-green eyes–they haunted me relentlessly. I found it nearly impossible to focus on anything else, my heart aching with concern. How was she doing? Was she safe? The fact that I didn't know only served to heighten my anxiety.Grace's avoidance and silence only deepened my frustration and sense of powerlessness. I had tried reaching out to her numerous times, leaving voicemails and sending messages, but each attempt was met with an eerie void. The distance between us felt like an insurmountable barrier, and I couldn't help but wonder why she had suddenly stopped answering me.I need
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 38 : I've Missed You
*Grace*I stood by the building's entrance, watching as my parents' car disappeared from sight. They had come and gone faster than a blink, but I was so grateful that I had managed to get their visit. It made me feel at home, like I needed to be reminded that I had people who cheered and loved me no matter what.Now, I was alone again, but my mother's words echoed through my mind."Love can withstand any challenges." Was she right? Could the love David and I shared endure the obstacles we faced? My heart ached as I thought about Sarah, our friendship shattered by my love for her father.I wished she could see that and try to understand us. Was I being unfair by thinking like that? Was that selfish of me?My phone rang, surprising me, and I knew it was David before even glancing at the screen. He'd been calling relentlessly these past few days, desperate to get a hold of me. But I hadn't felt ready to talk to him until now. In reality, I was dying to hear his voice. To know how
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 39 : Love Confession
*Grace*We left the coffee shop, walking side by side towards David's sleek, black sports car parked outside. The charged air between us seemed to thicken with each passing moment, the tension and desire intermingling like an intoxicating brew. As we approached the car, David opened the passenger door for me, and I slid into the leather seat, my heart pounding in anticipation. The smell of his cologne intoxicated my senses as soon as he closed the door and rounded the car, and I took a deep breath, trying to keep my heart from bursting out of my chest."Thank you for agreeing to talk to me. It means more than you know," David said softly as soon as he sat in the driver's seat and started the car.His words were sincere, and for a moment, I allowed myself to believe that maybe, just maybe, we could rekindle what we once had.His hand reached out to mine over the gear and he gently squeezed it, his fingers warm against my skin. The gesture was tender, but caused me to swallow har
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 40 : A Bitter Pill to Swallow
*David*The scent of aged leather and paper filled my nostrils as I sat behind the heavy oak desk in my office surrounded by documents and contracts that seemed to have no end. But as much as I tried to focus on the words before my eyes, my mind wasn't having it.My body still tingled from the sex with Grace the previous night, and my brain was occupied with memories of her moaning and squirming beneath me. She fitted so perfectly into my arms–it felt like she was made for me. Finally having her in my arms again felt like a dream. After being ghosted for days, I had started to believe she would never talk to me again. I was convinced that my days with her were over, only the memories of our time together lingering behind for me to hold onto.Yet, yesterday renewed the hope within me that what we had wasn't lost. Finally confessing my love for her made me feel more alive than ever. It gave me a determination to fight for her that, just a day ago, was threatening to disappear and
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 41 : A Night Out
*Grace*I had anticipated his call, my heart fluttering erratically every time my phone chimed. But David's voice never came through the other end, leaving me to ponder in an unsettling silence. Had our night together been a goodbye for us? Or was he simply too consumed by his busy life, unable to find a moment to reach out to me? That had never happened before, David had always found the time to call me, but what did I know? Maybe he was too busy. Or maybe I was just trying to find excuses for his disappearance.Doubt gnawed at me, clouding my thoughts and dampening my spirits.Determined to shake off the cloud of uncertainty that loomed over me, I threw myself back into work with a fervor that left my colleagues wide-eyed. My extended absence had left a conspicuous void, but thankfully my boss hadn't taken any drastic actions and fired me."Grace, you've been working nonstop," Maria, one of my co-workers, remarked as she entered my office that morning, concern etched onto h
Secret Desires: Daddy's Temptation Chapter 42 : Board Meeting
*David*The conference room was already buzzing with tension as I walked inside, a palpable energy prickling my skin and making me suddenly nervous. I had summoned a select group of individuals—employees, stakeholders, and trusted family members—to gather at this crucial meeting, aimed at facing the looming threat of the Reynolds' hostile takeover.Among those present were my sister and her husband who had returned to the country after several months away, just in time to be present for the board meeting, and their presence provided within me a sense of solidarity and reassurance. It had been a long time since I last saw them, but having them now here, supporting me, meant more to me than they probably knew.My mother, on the other hand, wasn't invited. I made sure the meeting was as confidential and secretive as possible since I didn't want her meddling into things and making them harder than they already were. Her penchant for turning any situation into a chaotic ordeal was the
