Raven's point of view
"What are you doing here?" Zeb was surprised when she looked up and saw me in front of him.
He wasn't expecting me to pay him a visit at their shop.
"Well, I just had a thought and dropped it here before going to do something important this morning, and seeing the love of my life is somehow important to me," I giggled, staring at him.
He blushed ..
"Wow! I'm sorry I won't be able to attend..."
"It's okay, love! I know and I see how busy you are, don't worry, my friends will come to pick me up," I said.
"What? As in here at the shop? But love...—"
"Why? There's nothing wrong with it, okay?"
Now I know what he was thinking. I'm sure he's aware of how my friends degrade him when he's with me. How much more if they come and pick me up at the shop they despise the most?
He stood up and turned to face me. The dirt on his hands has never stopped me from hugging and kissing him.
"I'm so filthy, love."
He tried to distance himself from me, but the closer I get to him, the more he wants to be with me.
"Well, I don't care. I can change if I ever look dirty, and I missed you," I said, trying to bite my lips in front of him.
I stared at his expressive eyes, kissable lips, and hunky body, which made me feel safe every time his arms wrapped around my body. Of course, I couldn't let this day pass without doing something special with Zeb.
I discovered it on my own while kissing him inside his room. I believe she was trying to take a bath the last time I saw him, but I stripped naked and entered the bathroom.
We exchanged passionate kisses. As he kissed me in the neck down to my healthy breasts, I could feel his hard muscles surrounded by my sensitive skin. I closed my eyes as he began to play with my nipple, which caused a surge of electricity throughout my entire body.
My eyes closed and I bit my lower lip as he caressed my breast. Zeb knew exactly where to find my sense of humour, which was invaluable. Something that I wouldn't look for anyone else.. experiencing moments like this with him is more than enough for me..
"I'm coming in. I can't stay here any longer, love. You always drive me insane every time we do this," Zeb said as he stared at me, asking for my permission.
I could still recall the first time we kissed, first time we made love.. He was the first, and I laugh every time I recall how I cried afterward, especially when I noticed a blood stain on the sheet and he did nothing but kiss and comfort me. He promised not to hurt me again, that he would love me for the rest of his life, that he would do everything he could to protect me, and that he would make me happy.
"You may, love..."
I replied in hushed tones.
As he spread out my legs, he positioned himself. He kissed me, and I felt him slowly enter my body. I knew because I could feel the tough thing tying me up. Yes, it was extremely difficult.
He moved in and out, and it grew faster and more aggressive than before. It just goes to show how much he missed me, just as much as I missed him.
We were both satisfied with our feelings after a few minutes. He kissed me and gazed at my enticing naked body.
"How I wish this body was solely mine."
That was quite strange. That was the first time I heard him say those words.
"What are you saying? - why? Are you thinking of giving it to someone else?" I asked, but I was in pain. I poutedy lips as I faced him.
As he lay down, he took a deep breath and looked up at the ceiling.
"If I had the power to decide our future, I would stay where we are now, if I had enough money, I would marry you just to ensure that you would be mine forever," he said solemnly.
"Really? Are you sure I'll love to marry you?" It was a joke, but I never saw him laugh, instead, he became more serious, and I could tell.
"That was something to think about, because I know how much your parents despise me...-"
"They love you, they don't hate you, they never told me that they feel that way about you, they just want me to have a good future."
"That they think I can't give you, right? They might not spill out when I'm around..but I know as I turned my back they see me nothing." Zeb bit his lip. "Because I was just working here, in an old car shop where dad had been stucked.? He earned years working here, but there is no progress, and that is exactly what your parents were thinking." He's still not looking at me.
I took his hands in mine. I placed my head on his chest and tried to communicate with him in the best way I knew how. in such a way that he is not offended and does not feel so small.
"Love, you were a good student, you finished your course with flying colors, and we can't deny that if you tried to apply at a company, they would automatically hire you. But we have to think about our future, I mean, we have to work for now and get a stable and decent job."
It triggered him, and he turned to face me. He stepped out of bed and handed me my clothes.
"Your friends will soon arrive, and you won't want them to see you that way and guess what happened."
"Love, did you hear me? Why don't you try to apply to a decent company with a regular salary? I'm sure..."
"Working in my own territory is inherited," Zeb says. "We own this car shop, and I am happy to be here. We can earn here; we earned. My father sent me to school because of this, and I know I can help him make these shops better. I understand you don't understand my point; well, I am not forcing you to understand me. Just let me decide things for myself, especially when it comes to this shop, okay?"
"Don't be mad, I was just trying to give you an option in case this shop doesn't work out."
"This will be some success, Raven. Maybe not right now, but I'm hoping so soon. It's getting late, and I think your friends will no longer come to pick you up. I'll just give you a ride to wherever you're going." He offered.
"Are you sure? Are you sure, but your father might need you here."
"Dad always understands," he said as he led the way out of the room.
Raven's Point of ViewZeb was correct.Lexi and Neri, my friends, did not come to pick me up. It's no longer surprising to me. They promised themselves, especially Lexi, that they would not enter that place. More likely, a junkyard where all the old cars were dumped."I love you, thank you for the ride; sorry, I know you don't feel good about it, but you can get out of your car and talk to my friends; I want them to know you drove me here and you are responsible enough," I said to alleviate disappointment.I thanked God because he did. At the very least, I know he's not mad at me."Hello girls.. sorry for being late, I just had to drop by at -""At Zebastian's old car shop?" she asked, her smile wicked."Lexi, shut up!" Neri attempted to silence Lexi.Zeb pretended he hadn't heard anything."Hello, Zeb. Thank you for bringing Raven here. Lexi was just too lazy to drive a car, so we'll have to wait here," Neri explained."It's my pleasure, Neri. Anyway, I won't be long. I have more thi
Raven's point of view"Cheers! to a successful day. Finally, we are employed at TEMPO, so we will be wearing this uniform starting on Monday," Lexi exclaimed as she flexed her uniform in front of me and Neri.They are both excited amd I van see it in theor eyes.. while I was nervous and uneasy.. Neri smiled at me quietly. She knows how much Lexi enjoyed working at TEMPO. Who wouldn't, after all? It is the largest automobile manufacturer and, in fact, the best option for any wealthy individual."Can you imagine how your life will be if you ever give Axel a chance in your heart? You will be a queen, and you will live life to the fullest. Every girls will look up in you and do everything just to please you..— If I were you, I would start planning how you will break up with Zeb. We can help you if you want," Lexi said seriously."Lexi, will you please stop? That was so awkward! Please be sensitive to how Raven would feel! We hired there to work for our assigned job and not to flirt with
Zebastian's point of view...We were driving to Raven's house. I was supposed to take her on a date, but I got bored. I'm referring to what I heard earlier. Why TEMPO, of all companies in the world? That was a major affront on my part.I'm aware that Raven's family does not think I'm the right man for her. They have seen me as the person I am now, working in my father's old car shop. Raven didn't expect me to waste my time and knowledge working in my father's shop, which is no longer the case.I understand how Raven's friends perceive me; I know and understand that they want Raven to have a successful and comfortable life, and I admit that I can't provide that for her right now.I took a deep breath, knowing Raven would eventually decide to leave me. I know it will hurt, but I need to go through all of this. I need to know what she can do to demonstrate her patience and love for me."That was too deep, love; is there any problem?" she asked abruptly when she noticed I wasn't saying an
Raven's Point of ViewDays, weeks, and months went by. I've been enjoying my work. I used to work as a cashier in the sales department. I enjoyed entertaining the very wealthy. I liked working there because I got a commission on top of my monthly salary when someone bought a car. That was a big help for me.I also offered to assist Zeb in renovating their shop, but he declined. I don't understand, and I was becoming increasingly irritated by his recent behavior.I didn't expect him to refuse my assistance."Hi!"When I heard someone speaking behind me, I was taken aback. When I turned around, it was Axel, my boss."Sir!""No, sir! We've already left the company, and it's past office hours, so just call me Axel, okay?" He smiled at me."All right, Axel," I said. I was extremely shy and uneasy. Zeb will be there shortly to pick me up."Are you going home alone?" he inquired."Yes sir, Zeb is going to pick me up; I was just waiting for him," I politely replied."Okay, but here's some adv
Zebastian's point of viewI felt like I had experienced everything bad in life as she turned her back on me. I tried to catch up with her, but she was gone. I'm not sure why it has to happen. Why did she give up so easily, making me feel less than who I am now?My eyes welled up with tears, and I could feel my body weakening. I couldn't get myself out of my chair. I can't even look around because there's nothing visible. Because of the tears in my eyes, my vision became blurry.Until I felt someone assist me in standing up It was FatherHe hugged me tightly, and I could feel his heart racing. I turned to face him, and he held my gaze. He put his hand on my shoulder and offered me a glass of water.I bowed my head as I placed the glass of water beside the couch on the table."To avoid dehydration," he explained as he sat in front of me. "I heard everything, from the beginning to the end. I felt the pain, son, and it took me almost an hour to think of a word that I have to say just to m
Zebastian's Pov"Raven—."Raven can't even look at me. I missed her, and I was expecting her to hug me, or if not, even just to stare at me and tell me that she missed me too."Raven, can we talk? I know things weren't that good for the past few days. You asked for freedom, and I have given it to you, thinking that it will make you feel comfortable in your job and in achieving your dreams. I love you, that is why I didn't stop you from doing what makes you happy! But why? Of all people, Raven? It's been Axel all along.. it's been Axel who is the real reason why you broke up with me. Why? Am I not enough?" I had the courage to ask her that stupid question, though I already knew the painful answer.Raven took a deep breath. She changed a lot. I can no longer see that woman whom I loved before. The woman who used to look at me with so much love All I can see now is a woman who has a cold heart. a woman who doesn't want me in her life."Zeb, you should not be here. We already talked abou
Raven's POVMy conscience just doesn't give me peace of mind. It's been a week since Zeb came and made a scene in front of our house. And it's been a week since Axel didn't show up. Yeah, I remember. He's out of town, and maybe he made sure that Zeb wouldn't be able to come and disturb me before he came back.While I was standing in the backyard...I saw a car parked in front of the gate. And when the door opened, it was none other than Axel."Hi babe, how are you?" He asked like nothing happened. He kissed me on my cheeks, and he gave me his presents. I know it's something from Europe. He always does that. Every time he has a trip abroad, he never forgets to buy something for me and my family."I'm okay. How about you?" I asked, well, actually, that is not exactly what I wanted to ask."Well and good. I closed the deal, and everything went well. Right after the wedding, we will go to Europe and maybe spend the honeymoon there. Or if you want, we can stay there for good.. to be far fr
Zebastian's pov.Present time.. At the age of thirty, I can say that I am successful enough. a success that I never thought I would have. Somehow, my father and friends were right. I really have a great future ahead of me, and it's still in process. I don't want to stop investing as long as I have something to give. I need to be more clever now. Just like in a relationship, reservation is good, and that is what I learned eight years ago.I was actually thinking about her. I tried to just take her out of my mind and focus on someone else, but I couldn't. But that is not because I still love her, it is because she left the deepest scar in my heart.. in my life..What more can I ask for?I have a business that is well known in the whole wide world. Branches are everywhere. I have investments in almost all of the companies around the world. I have a lot of investments, houses, businesses, cars, malls, airlines, hotels, and so on.I can sleep with girls whenever I want. I can have a girlf
