Lizzy
His head is still thrown back and his shoulders are relaxed, he looks content. After a few minutes of getting his bearings in check, he looks down at where I’m still kneeling in front of him. His palms hook under my armpit and he pulls me up to sit on his lap, I smile at him while stroking his features lightly with my palm, “okay” I say. He looks at me confused so I elaborate “I’ll go with you for dinner” he grins now and kisses me hard on the mouth.
“I want you with me all the fucking time but this is important” Markus says, “I know Markus and I also know how much you love doing your work and how passionate you are about it, so don’t you dare go explaining yourself to me. I love every part of you Markus, including this sexy nerd CEO” he snorts a laugh and I laugh with him “you sure have a way with words, don’t you?” he shakes his head still smiling and mutt

MarkusMy spirits are back to normal and I think it has to do something with a certain chocolate vixen, I sigh at the thought of her bringing me to pleasure, I’m not even joking when I say that it was the best blowjob I’ve received in the entirety of my lifetime. I can’t return the pleasure, not yet, so I stick to the white roses she loves so much. It’s Friday 7:55 PM and I’m waiting for Lizzy to finally grace me with her presence, unlike last time I’m actually presentable today with my perfectly pressed black three-piece suit and clean-shaven jaw, I look somewhat like my normal self.I check my watch for what seems like the hundredth time in the past fifteen minutes, 7:57 I release a breath, with Lizzy I’m always on high alert, what if she changes her mind and decides she doesn’t want me anymore? well…. it’s not like I’ll give up on her so easily but still the thought of losing h

LizzyI don’t move, or rather I can’t move, every muscle in my body turns rigid after seeing his pathetic smug face in front of me. He’s still smiling smugly at me and my reaction towards him, I can feel Markus turn tense beside me but I’m too caught up in my personal hell to look up at him. I have so many things to say to him, so many years of pent-up frustration and so many years wasted just because he wasn’t good enough to me, but right now as I stand in front of him and look at the arrogant man he’s turned into, I want nothing to do with him. I clear my head of all the vicious thoughts I’m having about him and grit my teeth“I. Am. Not. Your. Darling” I glare at him with all the hatred I can muster but he still keeps smiling like a lunatic. I tug at Markus’s arm and wish that he follows me out without making a scene, but of course he doesn’t budge and glares daggers at a man he doesn

MarkusHer voice is laced with so much pain, I wouldn’t leave even if I wanted to. We silently go back to her apartment and she inspects my knuckles which are swollen from the fight earlier. It is all worth it, the pleasure from getting to hit that douchebag of an ex is worth all the pain and wounds. But what doesn’t fit the equation is why Lizzy wouldn’t back answer him or insult him in return, I’ve never seen her more scared and helpless than she was today, what are you hiding vixen? She brought a packet of frozen peas from the refrigerator and gently started applying pressure on my knuckles, I didn’t wince or make a sound, mainly because it didn’t really hurt and also because I didn’t want to act like a pussy in front of her.“Are you going to tell me, what is the deal with him?” I asked softly, she sighed but didn’t answer the question, “I will tell you Mark, soon, just please not to

LizzyMark dropped me at Golosi and left for the day, well….at least now we’ll be spending more time after his launch party. I sighed and got back to work, to be honest I’m emotionally and physically exhausted after yesterday and I really would love a break from all the working but Golosi is my baby and I can’t abandon it, not now that I have made an impact. Seeing Josh yesterday was a complete nightmare, it’s not his words that make me sad, I’ve dealt with them before, it’s the memories that don’t leave, I wish I had the courage to tell Markus the whole truth but I’m just not ready.Apart from me and Josh, no one knows what went behind, not even Mia. It was one of the weakest moment of my life and although I know Mia wouldn’t judge, it’s hard to be so vulnerable and weak with the one person who thinks I’m too strong. Speaking of Mia, it’s been a while since she told me anyt

Markus This day could not have gone any worst, first, the issue with the logo lightings, then the guest list mixes up and now this stupid press who wants their perfect shot just so they could make huge sums out of it, I’m not against them doing so but my life was already a huge mess and smiling for photos was the last thing I want to do right now. I step out of my car and make my way to the red carpet, that’s when a black Lamborghini stops at the entrance and I mutter under my breath “no freaking way” I quicken my pace but I think I wasn’t fast enough because she catches up with me. Veronica freaking Bernard, comes to stop beside me just when I was about to get photographed by the press, the reporters go crazy when they spot Veronica with me and flashes go on and off at a surreal speed. I grit my teeth and hiss out in her ear, “what the fuck do you think you are doing?” she smiles at me; she fucking smiles at me and brings my arm to res

Lizzy“NEW YORK’S HOTEST TECH COUPLE SPOTTED TOGETHER” “ARE VERONICA AND MARKUS BACK INTO THE DATING GAME?” “BILLIONAIRE HEAD OVER HEELS FOR HIS EX-GIRLFRIEND”I read everything the reporters had to say but with each word, all I felt was numbness, I didn’t cry or curse myself for making poor life choices again, what’s the point when all is said and done? Empty, that’s how I felt as I stared out of my window at a distance, all my emotions had been sucked out of me with a single glance at those pictures. In one of them, Markus was whispering something in her ears, ‘probably telling her how much he loved her’ that thought left a bitter taste in my mouth, the next picture was of Veronica smiling sweetly at Markus and the last one was of him wrapping his arm a

LizzyI couldn’t sleep last night, I twisted and turned and thought, him leaving me wasn’t his fault but mine, it was all on me. It happened because I was too scared to face my own demons. I was a coward and that thought made me tired. To be honest I was tired of pretending to be okay, tired of showing people that I was strong enough when from the inside I was eroding. I needed to act on it before I became completely hollow, before everything that made me ‘ME’ vanished and all that was left behind was a shell of a person you couldn’t recognize. I needed to confide my fears in someone, someone who would understand why I did the things I did in my past, someone who wouldn’t judge me or look at me with pity in their eyes, someone like…. I jerked from my thoughts; I know who it is.Next morning, I was too tired to even open my eyes, so I did what I thought wasn’t possible in a million years, I took a day off

LizzyI never understood why she loved Hamptons so much, sure the beach and the warm weather were nice but there were other places more developed, like take California for instance, for me Hamptons was a vacation destination but for her, it was her whole world. I rented a car for three days because I didn’t own one and started my journey to The Hamptons, after one bathroom break and a small lunch break, I made it to Hamptons around two and a half hour later. It was 3PM in the afternoon and I was worried to find her asleep, I’ll have to wait until she wakes up from her afternoon slumber.I parked my car in her driveway and made my way to the front door, the house wasn’t anything extravagant, it was a one-story bungalow in a L shaped layout, Christmas was the last time I visited her but I know she’d be happy to see me. I rang the bell ones and waited, after five minutes of waiting I lost hope and was about to get into the car when
