~Lena
Raw desires. Selfish longing. That was all I felt towards the stranger beneath me.
It was one of those wild nights I always didn't miss having. As usual,I managed to get hands on a dangerously hot guy and my thoughts about him knowing just how to pleasure women weren't false. Forget the mask he had on, his perfect physiques isn't something you would forget in a hurry. The whole alpha male aura oozing off him was enough to bring a bazillion women on their knees. I'd gladly be the one leading those women because I could turn down everything,but not a taste of the paradise I was receiving.
His tongue plunged in deep into my pussy as I rode his face recklessly,screams falling out impulsively. I could feel an orgasm fast approaching when he flipped us over, undoing his pants.
I cursed loudly, impatience surging through me.
"Patience, Baby doll,"his sultry voice rang through the room as he got rid of his trousers with his briefs following.
My thighs squeezed on each other on having the raw view of his monster. The thought of having a cock as huge as that inside of me was maddening.
"Please,"I whimpered involuntarily.
"Desperate, are we?"a low chuckle accompanied his words. "Turn around,get on your hands and knees."
I obeyed without a word being said and without warning,he plunged his cock deep into me, fucking me into Oblivion.
For a girl like me who's had her own fair share of men on her bed, I knew fully well who was well skilled and who was not. And this man? My oh my. He's the type I'd kill to have inside of me all the days of my fucked up life.
"Faster.....oh my God,faster!!!"my words faded lowly into a slur as I tried hard to find my breath.
He gave it to me exactly how I wanted it. Hard,rough. I loved how his hand wrapped easily around my neck as he imposed dominance on me. He forced me into submission and trust me, I had no complaints.
My stomach tied a tighter knot. There was no way in nine hells I could hold in the orgasm threatening to ruin me.
A loud cry of pleasure from me echoed through the room as he increased his pace, stretching me so I could take in everything he had to give. I made no efforts in restricting the hot cum which trickled down my thighs and he finished after me, shooting hard into the condom he was putting on.
Well,hey. I might live a careless life,but I'm definitely not that careless. The last thing I wanted was to get pregnant for some bastard I knew nothing about.
My legs gave up on me and I fell flat on the bed, panting lowly. I had eyes on Mr handsome, watching him toss away the used condom as he put his clothes back on. He didn't say a word. It was strange since every single man I've spent my night with always left with a compliment of how good I was.
The embarrassed feeling that washed through me when he dipped his hands in his trousers and left two wads of dollar notes on the bed before he turned around and left, wasn't something I ever thought I'd feel in my entire goddamned life.
The hell did that mean? Cause from what I knew,he enjoyed the sex as well as I did. I could totally tell from his groans and the fact that he moaned....twice! Something told me a man like him wasn't one who moaned in bed. I just knew it. And the fact that I could get that much out of him in one night meant I at least deserved much more than being treated like a slut.
Isn't that what you are?
Definitely not! All I was doing was having fun. Living my life to the fullest. After all, YOLO, right?
I grumbled, getting up begrudgingly but my knees betrayed me and I swear it,if I didn't hold on to the fucking bedstead, I'd have surely fallen.
And to think I felt sore. So fucking sore and I owed it all to one jerk-ish, rude bastard.
I let out an exasperated sigh and somehow managed to throw on my clothes and walk back into the main club without looking like the sex wrecked bitch I was. Of course I left his stupid cash the exact spot he threw it. It's good luck to the next person entering the room after me, I guess.
I let my eyes roam through the room before setting eyes on the person I was looking for.
Demi was in a corner, smooching with a certain blonde haired guy. Eww. My hatred for blondes are so out of the world. Well, the hatred wasn't always there till a certain blonde guy slept off right in the middle of a really steamy make out. Like, WTF? Who the hell does that? I'm pretty sure my ancestors from many years ago didn't suffer the kinda fate that I did.
I'm not saying all blondes are the same,but hello? Let no blonde know thy path. There's a reason.
"Hey, Demi! I'm going home, like right now!!"I yelled over the noise when I got to her seat but she seemed far too gone to hear me. Typical Demi. She kisses with her ears and brain as well. Still had no idea why she blocks out the world when playing around like this.
"Demi!"I had to tap her and she looked up at me, her lips slightly parted before curving up into a sly smile.
"You're back? So soon? Where's the hottie you left with earlier?"she asked, looking around.
Argh, don't even remind me.
"We're done with whatever business we were having. I'm leaving,you?"I asked impatiently.
"Oh. I'm gonna be returning home later in at night. Maybe by 3...4?"she threw a flirty look at the blonde before slamming her lips into his, riding him.
Okay,I get it. My cue to leave, right? No need for the fucking PDA.
I rolled eyes before drunkenly getting the hell out of the suffocating club. Only Gawd knew how I managed to drive home despite how badly my in between was aching.
I fumbled with the house keys and finally got in. All I could think off was how to reach my room and get some really good sleep. Haven't had some in like four days. Had been busy with the stuff that fetches me money - AKA, writing. And voila! My phone chose that moment to ring. I tried glancing at who the caller was,but it was all so blurry. I couldn't make out a thing. I pushed the phone aside, deciding to call whomever it was, tomorrow morning when I was sober.
I took a step towards the kitchen when something came back to me. Maybe it was the drinks I'd had that night or just my imagination,but for a second,I thought Mr handsome's voice suddenly felt awfully familiar.
"Desperate,are we?"
The hell have I heard that voice before? I knew I'd heard it somewhere,but I wasn't even sure I knew who the voice belonged to. Could be I heard it from a radio or something.
I still tried racking through my brain though, but nothing came up. I sighed in defeat, kicking off my shoes and slumping down on my couch. A good sleep was what I needed. I shut my eyes closed and just like that,I drifted off to my land of fantasies. Fantasies which had absolutely nothing to do with the stupid, rude jerk I fucked not so long ago.
*
The screeching noise of a blender pierced into my ears, disrupting my sleep as I snapped my eyes opened. The sudden action made a migraine shoot it's way into my head with a loud bang which I literally heard, very clearly.
"Oh Gawd. Not this early,please,"I mumbled in a whisper, trying not to provoke the migraine which miraculously reduced a bit.
"Oh. You're awake?"Demi spoke from the kitchen counter, grinning widely at me as she turned off the tiny agent of Satan, AKA the blender.
Of course. That's her only devilish way of waking me up.
"Obviously,"I hissed, forcing myself up and the movement reminded me of the chaos a certain creature wrecked on me the previous night.
Pushing all thoughts off,I begrudgingly went for the cup of hangover soup she was extending at me.
She was such a sweetheart as equally as she was a big-time annoying bitch.
"Thanks,"I managed a tired smile at her, taking a quick sip. "So...how was your fling last night?"I asked and the frown that slapped her face pretty much told me what I wanted to know. I resisted a laugh.
"You know what? You were so fucking right. Majority of blondes are dickheads. The jerk ditched me cause his mum made a distress call. What was the emergency? There was a fucking roach in her apartment. The hell!"
The way she gesticulated at her words made me finally give in to the voice pushing me to laugh.
"Believe me Lena, it's not fucking funny. I was close. This close to the edge and he just left me there? Oh Jesus,"she slapped her forehead, disappointment all over her face.
"Take heart,bess. I can totally relate,"I laughed loudly and she shook her head.
"Whatever. And you and the hottie? How'd it go?"she asked, wriggling her brows. My smile vanished. I still felt like killing the jerk.
"What happened? Dude ditched you too?"
"Nah. On the contrary,it was the best night I've ever had,"I spoke quietly, swirling the small bowl I was holding.
"Yes!"she exclaimed like she just won some kinda price. "I just knew it. He didn't look like who'd disappoint,"she grinned.
"But then,after it all ended,he got dressed, threw cash on me, and left without a single word,"I finished, speaking like I was still in disbelief.
"Oof. Bruised ego,"she snickered.
"It's not funny,"I snapped at her and she raised her hand in surrender.
"Yeah,yeah. Whatever you say,"she giggled.
I made to say something but the doorbell interrupted me. I dropped the bowl and shot Demi a playful glare before heading for the door.
"Who's the..."I trailed off with a smile when I opened the door.
"Kae!!"I hugged my big sister tightly.
"Careful, you'll choke me,"she laughed, returning the hug.
"I've missed you so fucking much. How's work?"I asked, ushering her inside.
"Big sis!"Demi called in her usual dramatic tone.
"My baby boo!"Kaelyn returned the energy.
"I'm glad to see you,"Demi blew a kiss.
"Same here, sweetheart,"my sister returned the kiss.
"It's been good,but stressful, believe me,"she answered my question, giving me a tired look.
"Perks of being the big sister. Not my problem,"I shrugged pulling her to sit with me and she laughed.
"Anyways,I was calling last night but you didn't answer."
Oops. Had no idea it was her calling.
"I was already sleeping when you called and I'm just waking up. Sorry,"I blinked.
"It's no biggie. I uhm....I wanted to tell you girls something,"she spoke, rubbing her hands against her dress. I frowned.
Kaelyn only does that when she's fucking nervous and she's only ever nervous when she's about dishing out bad news. Whatever it was she had to say,I had a goddamned feeling it wouldn't sit well with me.
"What is it you have to say?"Demi asked, walking out of the kitchen and coming to sit with us.
"Uhm.... Elena? I'm really going to want you to calm down,okay?"she spoke with a shaky voice.
"Say it, Kae,"I spoke firmly. I wasn't being rude. I just hated suspense like crazy and she knew me. For a girl who writes,I sure am aggressive and believe me,you wouldn't want to get on my bad side. Not bragging,stating facts.
"Okay. I...."she exhaled deeply. "I'm getting married soon, Lena,"she spoke and my frown deepened.
"You're getting married?"Demi's voice mirrored confusion.
"What do you mean you're getting married? The last time you came here,which was just two weeks ago, you didn't even have a boyfriend. So who the hell are you getting married to? Or did you lie?"I asked peering down at her.
"I didn't lie, Lena. I'm getting married now only because it's a contract marriage."
Her words had a fucking time bomb exploding in my head.
"What?!!"
~Lena
What the hell was she saying? A contract marriage? With who? When did this even happen? How?
"Elena,I need you to calm...."she was saying, trying to hold my hands but I pushed her hand off me. Well....you could say I had a really terrible temper.
"Don't tell me to calm down! We made a promise to each other not to do this crap. We swore not to get married till we haunt them down. Why the hell are you going against your own fucking word?"I snapped.
"Lena, just listen to what she has to say,will you,"Demi spoke sternly and I huffed.
The hell could be her fucking reason? I bet it wasn't even something sensible or anything.
"Fine." I folded my arms. "Tell me the reason why her majesty decided to do what she did,"I spoke, sarcasm dripping off my every word. I couldn't help it. I was beyond pissed at that moment. How could she get involved in something like that and only tell me when it was all about to kick off completely? That's not what sisters do, was it?
She shifted on her seat uncomfortably. "The thing is....I needed the money,"she started and I rose a brow, giving her a quizzical look.
What could she need money for? For all I knew,she was working as a secretary in a very powerful and popular firm. The last time I checked,she was receiving more than enough. Well, considering that she provided for herself and I provided for myself as well. So what? What could she need more money for?
"I'm listening,"i mumbled when she kept mute. Demi held on tight to Kaelyn's hand for whatever the hell you can call it, support.
"I...I borrowed cash from certain people I shouldn't have and now....I can't pay back. I need the money, Lena. The people I'm owing are dangerous as fuck and they'll come for you if I can't pay back. It was my mistake to have made a deal like that with people like them,but I can't change it and I don't want anything happening to you either,"she spoke desperately, clasping her hands together,her eyes begging that I saw to reason.
It's too bad cause I still didn't see what justified her actions yet.
"What do you mean dangerous people? Who did you borrow money from, Kae? And what the hell did you use the money for?"I asked, curiosity eating me up like crazy.
I needed to know. I deserved to know. Well, I think she thought differently,cause her face turned blank.
"None of those concerns you, Lena. You just have to listen to me...."she was saying and that's when I lost it.
"It's none of my business? Kae, you said it yourself that they're gonna come for me if you can't pay! From my point of view, this has every fucking thing to do with me and yes,I deserve to know what you did with the money. What did you put hands in Kae!?"I rose my voice trying to make her see I wasn't joking.
"Uh.... I'll leave you both to sort this out. Peacefully,"Demi directed her last word at me but I didn't spare her a single glance. I was way too angry.
"Go easy with her,"she told Kaelyn before leaving the house.
That's one of the reasons I loved Demi. She knew what I needed even without me saying a word. And what I needed at that moment,was an alone time with my sister who thought she could gamble with my life and still have the guts to say none of it was my business.
"I'm going to be asking again, Kae. The hell did you do with the money?"I asked after taking in a deep breath.
"I. Said. It's none of your business!"she hissed in gritted teeth,her face darkening and for a moment,I doubted that was my sister. The look of disbelief on my face probably called her back to order cause she cleared her throat, calming down.
"Just listen to me, Lena. Just this once,trust my judgement without asking any silly questions. Protecting you, right now,is my top priority and that's what I'm trying to do...." She was saying.
"But you're the one who put me in danger in the first fucking place. That's a fact, isn't it? You knew who they'd come after if you couldn't pay back and you still went ahead with the borrowing of a thing. And now,you can't pay back,you expect me to laugh and giggle with you?"I eyed her as I cut her off. Hey, don't judge. I loved cutting people off. It gave a sort of satisfaction. Try it someday and you'll see.
"That's why I'm agreeing to get married to my boss! Can't you see I'm doing everything I can? Just listen to me!"she yelled out in frustration.
"Wait...."I got up, taking a step backwards. "You're getting married to your boss?! Kaelyn!"I exclaimed in disbelief.
"You think I went to him, begging on my knees to marry me and pay my debts? He came to me first! I don't know how,but he knew of the money I borrowed. He knew I needed some means to pay it back and he proposed a deal. He said to marry him on paper. He didn't tell me the reason. He just said to act like couples and live with him. No questions asked,and he'd pay me a whopping sum of five billion dollars. Elena, even if I weren't owing those people,you think I'd turn down this offer? Our lives would change forever and we'll be able to get the power we need to avenge Dad and mum's death. Can you understand now?"she spoke lowly, her gaze on me, softening.
Tch. She seriously thought she'd be able to buy my conscience with money? I mean,sure...who didn't like money? I knew I did,but that didn't make her actions any less of that of a gold digger.
"I want revenge. I want to take down the people who killed dad and mum,but I want to work hard for it. This is just a shortcut that I know you'll regret taking later in the future. Okay,fine. Let's leave out the fact that you traded my life for some money that you borrowed. This is marriage, Kaelyn. And as much as you might want to ignore it,the fact still remains that once you sign that document,you belong to him for life. Do you even know the person you're about marrying?"I asked as softly as I could. I needed her to fucking wake up.
"I do. He's my boss and I know he's not capable of doing anything funny,"she spoke confidently and I couldn't help but let out a laugh.
"You're funny, Kae. You have no idea if he's some kind of maniac who would use his wife as a punching bag. You'll regret this if you just dive in, Kaelyn. I'm saying this because I care. I genuinely care and I wouldn't be able to take it if anything was to happen to you. You're the only family I have left, Kae,"I spoke, reaching to hold her warm hands.
"I know. And I'm ready for whatever thing this marriage brings my way. If it means I'll pay off the debt and get revenge for Mama and Papa,then no problem. I'll be just fine, I'm ready to make the sacrifice,"she spoke, giving my hands a squeeze.
I sighed in defeat. "Fine. If you say so,then I have no say,do I?"I mumbled begrudgingly.
"Thanks for accepting this, Elena. I know how important this decision is for you,"she spoke softly and I nodded.
"It's not like you gave me much of a choice,did you?"i rolled eyes, pulling her in for a hug.
"Such a stubborn head,"she giggled, returning the hug.
*
Kaelyn was long gone before Demi came back in.
"So? Did you both fix things up?"she asked, looking at me hopefully. She knew how much of a crazy girl I could be if stepped upon. I guess she knew that for sure when I beat up my last boss to a pulp till he ended up in the ICU. I literally spent an entire night in the cell. It was meant to be a lesson taught to me but,duh. If any bastard did as much as anger me, I'd still commit same offence,with no fucking regrets.
Reason why I decided, working under anybody wasn't for me. Hence my career - writing. I wrote books for Companies, got paid and life went on. At least for something as easy like that, I didn't have to kiss the ass of anyone in the name of them being my employers. Easy squeezy.
"I guess,"I mumbled, keeping my attention on my laptop which was resting on my lap. I had a deadline to meet so I had to hurry and wrap up that book.
"You guess? C'mon,tell me. Who's she getting married to by the way?"she asked, sitting across me.
"Her boss,"I mumbled and she gasped.
"The bloody hell!! You've got to be shitting me, right?"Demi rasped, dramatically gasping for air.
"I'm not in for your dramas at the moment, Demi Gusto,"I grumbled. I wouldn't lie, the whole thing still wasn't sitting down well with me. At. All.
"You don't understand, Lena. That man... Alejandro Grey? Oh my God. I can't breathe,"she squealed.
"What about him?"I rose a brow.
"Our lives are about to change, Elena! That guy is this close to being a fucking trillionaire. We'll be fucking rich! Do you know what it means to have him as your brother-in-law? Our generations will never suffer!"she exclaimed, dancing around happily. I groaned, slamming my laptop close.
"Alejandro Grey,huh? He's the boss of Kae, isn't he?"I asked and Demi nodded. "Good. Mention one time he's done something for anyone for free before. We both know he's so fucking heartless and he doesn't even make an effort to hide that fact. Is that the kinda guy Kae's gonna get married to? Impossible!"i snapped.
"You're right,"she nodded in realisation.
With this reality dawning on me,I feared more for my sister. I mean, Alejandro wasn't someone anybody ever prayed to get involved with. And now,of all people he was involved with my sister? There had to be a way out. There just had to be.
"I doubt there's any way out of this since she's already agreed. We can only hope for the best,"Demi spoke,worry hinted in her voice.
Screw hoping. I had to take matters into my own hands since Kae wouldn't listen. Earlier,I had no idea her boss was the popular Alejandro. Sure,I knew Alejandro Grey. He was a popular figure. Known in the business world,but I just had no idea it was his company Kae was working under.
Fuck.
"Demi?"I dropped my laptop on the table. "I'll be right back. I just need to visit someone real quick,"i spoke in haste before dashing out. I didn't have time for explanations or questions I didn't feel like answering.
I didn't even think of changing out of the huge comfy t-shirt and black sweatpants I was putting on. I just got in my car, drove off to the one place I had in mind.
GREY'S INC.
Thankfully,it wasn't too far and in twenty-four minutes tops,I got there. I got out, heading for the top floor immediately.
I was the kinda person who didn't give a double fuck about what people thought about me so I didn't care about the weird stares I was receiving.
When I reached the elevator that was supposed to take me up,I got in and Gawd save my soul,the people in it together with me,refused to take eyes off of me.
I got forced to turn around,a scowl on my face. "What? Never seen a pretty girl before?"I snapped and they quickly averted their gazes.
Perfect.
The moment the elevator binged open,I ran down the hallway searching for the door with the CEOs sign on it. I found it eventually.
The last door literally in the middle of the hallway. It was all glass and it was obvious from the exteriors that the office was far beyond perfect.
I could see my sister inside, talking with someone whom I couldn't exactly see since she covered him from sight,but I was sure as hell that she was talking with the Alejandro of a guy.
I stormed in. Kaelyn turned to me, surprise evident on her face.
"Lena? What are you doing here?"she asked, moving slightly and I finally got graced with the view of the popular CEO. My knees wobbled at the sight.
We locked gazes,his dark eyes peering into mine and I felt goosebumps grace my skin. His eyes darkened,he stared at me with a sense of familiarity. For a moment, I almost forgot my sister was there.
"Lena?"she called.
"I..."I tried tearing my gaze away from the gorgeous CEO before me. His jaw ticked and he stood straight,his hands tucked in his pockets.
"Kaelyn? Who's she?"he asked in a dreadfully familiar voice. My eyes widened.
No. No, I'm surely mistaken. Could it be that I was still a bit drunk or what?
He still had his eyes on me just as mine was trained on him.
"Oh. She's my baby sister. Lena? Meet Alejandro Grey, my ex boss and my fiancé,"she spoke with a smile as she introduced us.
Amusement flashed through his eyes.
"Is that so? Well, nice to meet you, Baby doll,"he spoke with a small smirk that didn't reach his eyes.
I literally heard my heart fly out of my chest. It was him.
He was the guy I fucked last night. He was the jerk I hated like crazy.
He was Mr handsome!
Kill me!!
~Lena
"Y...you?" The words just fell out and Kaelyn sent me a confused look. The jerk on the other hand gave me a knowing smirk.
The hell! I'm sure as hell he recognized me as well. Translation? This engagement couldn't push through. It just couldn't. How the fuck was I supposed to live the rest of my life knowing I fucked my sister's husband?
"Uh.... You know him?"Kaelyn asked, glancing at me and then at Alejandro who was wearing a blank look on his face.
Fuck.
"I uh....yeah,I think I recall seeing him once on TV,"I managed to force out a reply.
"Oh, okay. That brings me back to my question. Why the hell are you here? I left your house about an hour ago,"she frowned looking at me curiously.
"Oh,I uh..." I trailed off thinking hard of a reason I could give. Screw this shit.
"She's here now, isn't she? Go get her some sort of refreshment,"Alejandro spoke, turning around to take his seat. I was a bit grateful for the save. God knows I never would've been able to come up with a sensible reason. Not with my mind messed up like crazy.
"Alright. I'll be back soon,"she gave me a smile and I returned it with a tight one.
The moment she got out,I snapped my head at the stupid jerk. He already had his head buried in his work.
"You remember me, don't you?"I asked in a pissed tone.
"Considering the kinda fuck-me eyes you've got there, it's hard to not remember you. So yeah,I do. So?"he cocked a brow,his eyes still on whatever crap he was doing. My face flushed.
Fuck-me eyes? Wait, seriously? I mean,sure. I'd been called lots of things. I've been described in all sort of ways. But never ever had I been referred to as the girl with fuck-me eyes. If that wasn't crazy, I had no idea what was.
"I don't have fuck-me eyes, Mister,"I seethed, eyeing him angrily.
"Argue with your mirror,"he shrugged and I couldn't help but notice how easily his muscles flexed at the movement. My brain took me to the previous night, and I wouldn't lie. I could drink in his naked version all the days of my life.
Elena? Snap the hell out of it. This is a serious situation for Gawd's sake!
"I'm her sister,and you fucked me,"I spoke, dragging myself out of the unnecessary situation. I didn't need any distractions. I'd rather come up with a solution on how to fix this goddamned mess.
"You already insinuated that before. Again, so?"
"So?"I repeated in disbelief. "You think this is some sorta joke or something? You fucked me senseless last night. And today, I find out you're engaged to my sister? This is bizarre!! It just can't happen!"I snapped loudly.
"Actually, she's engaged to me and not vice versa. Second,it was a one-time thing wasn't it?"he finally looked up at me, a certain glint flashing through his eyes. Can someone please help me recall how to fucking breathe?
"You don't understand what I'm saying,"I shook my head.
"Make me,"he returned his attention to his work.
"Do you know just how complicated it would make things if she knew? Scratch that. I don't even like you for her! She can't marry you,"I spoke decisively not giving him the leverage to defy my words.
His lips curved upwards at my words. Wait. Was any of my words funny? He looked up again, resting his back.
"Àh,so in other words....you like me for you instead?"he teased and I bit on my tongue. This was frustrating.
"That's not what I meant. You're way too rude,too arrogant to be with someone as pure as her. It's like a devil getting married to an angel. It's never a good combination,"I glared. Maybe my words got him pissed cause the man stood up, approaching me with a taunting look on his face. The smirk on his face,gone and he looked like if he was given the chance, he'd break me till I was in nothing but ruins. I, on the other hand, remained fixed on the spot. He didn't faze me. Okay,maybe a bit, but he didn't need to know that.
He stopped really close to me. I could feel his breath fanning on my face,our noses touched. I never thought it was possible,but i saw his already dark eyes darken even more. His tongue got his pale thin lips wet and I couldn't help but recall how they felt on me. The temptation to relive that encounter,was so fucking strong. I was too busy thinking dirty,I had no idea his lips were closer to my ears.
"Here's what I think, Baby doll. I think you don't have a fucking say in what happens between your big sister and I. We're getting married and that's it. I have no idea what gave you the balls to even speak to me in the way you did earlier, but I swear it,one more word from you and I'll have you bent over this desk of mine and fuck that tight cunt of yours senseless...."he tilted his head sideways. "Dare me,"he whispered and pulled away, retrieving his phone from his breast pocket.
The. Fucking. Hell! I felt my blood run cold, a high wave of adrenaline rush going through me. I clutched on the hem of my shirt tightly, trying hard not to make my flushed face obvious.
Was it disgusting that his words had me so fucking drenched? Was it insane that I wanted him to push through with his threat?
Hell,there had got to be something wrong with me and I seriously needed to figure out what it was so I could get fixed as soon as possible. Never before had I felt this way towards any man before. I mean,sure. There's always the sexual tension,but it's hardly ever there after a one time fuck. But this situation.... It was one I couldn't understand. I'd fucked him more than once the previous night. I was supposed to feel nothing other than pure hate towards him. Nothing else. So why?
"I'm back!"the door automatically opened and Kae walked in, a smile on her face. I did my best to steady my breathing. It would be a disaster if she got to know what she shouldn't.
"Here you go,"she handed me a cup of cappuccino.
"T... thanks,"i mumbled hoping my voice wasn't as shaky as I thought it'd be.
Don't get me wrong. I was this girl who was up for anything. Anything at all. I rendered men speechless, helpless even. But this man.... something about him made me incredibly weak. Made me want to fall on my knees and do whatever the crap he asked me to and I couldn't hate myself less for that.
"I've got a meeting to catch up with,"he suddenly spoke, heading for the door,his eyes still on his phone. Even his back view was heaven.
Lord,help thou child. Help me stay sane.
"Meeting? But Alejandro.... your schedule is quite free today. What meeting could you be going to?"my sister frowned in confusion. He stopped walking,but didn't turn around.
"My schedule is none of your business. I owe you no explanation, Miss Wynter,"he spoke menacingly and I almost flinched. Kaelyn swallowed.
"Right. My apologies, Mr Grey,"my sister bowed even when he wasn't looking. My mouth flipped open. The fucking hell?!
He didn't reply,he just walked out, grabbing his jacket from a certain guy who approached him the moment he stepped out.
"You shouldn't have come here,"Kaelyn reprimanded and I looked at her incredulously.
"Sis?"I moved closer to feel her temperature. She slapped my hand off lightly, moving backwards.
"I'm fine. What's with you though?" She gave me that are-you-okay kinda look.
"I think I'm supposed to be asking you that. Kaelyn! That vamp just treated you like a fucking stranger! You both are supposed to be fucking engaged!"I spoke in disbelief.
"Because I am a stranger, Lena,"she spoke with a calm expression. It was as if it didn't bother her at all. My face softened.
"Kae,is anyone threatening you into doing this? Are you being forced?"I asked lowly.
"No, I'm not being threatened, Lena. Why would you even say that?"she frowned at me.
"Well,what do you expect me to say? That's the only reason I can come up with as to why you're acting like this. I mean, c'mon! Fine,I know this is some contracted crap,but still. You're both engaged, aren't you? He ought to treat you like a fucking human, not his slave or something. There's supposed to be, if not anything, respect. What he did earlier is far from respecting you,"I spoke, rebuking her.
"We already talked about this, Lena,"she groaned.
"We did,"I agreed. "But you didn't tell me this was how you're gon' be treated,"I retorted.
"Well you've seen it. It's not like I'm gonna die from being treated like this. The highest it could get to is,I stay out of his business and I'm okay,"she shrugged.
She's got to be kidding me.
"He seems like a fuckboy to me,"I grumbled.
"He is,"she confirmed.
Oh great. She knows and she's still in this.. this...what do I even call it? Cause it's anything other than an engagement.
"You know what? I wish you luck. I can't believe you!"I spoke in frustration and disappointment before leaving.
As I drove home,I couldn't help but think. How would my sister survive in a toxic marriage like that?
Mr Grey? That's what she calls her supposed fiancé? That's just dreadfully ridiculous. What's the difference from being his secretary and being his wife then?
Then there's the me and him situation. How sure was I that there wouldn't be a next time for us? I mean, I was a second away from daring him to do exactly what he said he'd do if I did as much as saying a word back in his office. I was this close to saying "I dare you."
Now,how would I live my life seeing him around whenever I dropped by to see Kae? It was frustrating as hell!
I had no idea I was home till I heard a knock on my window.
"Yo, bitch! Get your ass out of there!"Demi's voice came muffled since my windows were up. I sighed, grabbing my keys and getting out.
"I've been yelling your name for about three minutes. You okay?"she asked in concern.
I'm far from fine, Demi. My life's a beautiful mess right now. "I'm fine,"I grumbled, dragging my feet into the house.
"Nuh-uh. I'm not taking that. Where'd you go?"she asked, sitting me down on the nearest couch.
"Grey's Inc,"i simply replied.
"The hell! What happened there?"she asked.
"You know what I think?"I looked at her tiredly and she shook her head. "I think I've used my own hands to make a novel out of my life,"I mumbled. I wasn't lying. This looked exactly like a certain forbidden romantic book that would sell big if it hit the market. It would've been exciting if only I weren't the main character at that moment.
"What the heck do you mean? Hit the nail on the head and quit the riddles,"she spoke impatiently.
"You know the hottie from last night?"I asked.
"Yeah? What about him?"she grinned, waiting for the main gist.
"Turns out he's Alejandro Grey. The hottie who I fucked was Alejandro fucking Grey,"I spoke, hearing annoyance sip into my words.
"The hell! That means....."she trailed off, looking at me while shaking her head in the don't-tell-me kinda way.
"Yeah. I successfully fucked my sister's fiancé,"I still said it.
"Oh my God. This is crazy,"she commented, obviously as speechless as I was.
"Tell me about it."
"Well, it's not like they love each other or something. It just can't happen again. It's as simple as that,"she shrugged and I almost laughed.
"That's the issue, Demi. I want it to happen again. Don't judge,blame my unholy brain for thinking about ways he can screw me each time I look at him,"I spoke unapologetically. Not like I was at fault here.
"You have got to be kidding me,"she burst out laughing.
Yeah,I think that's what I get for moving with a mentally deranged friend.
