“What? Aw, come on. How come you get to have all the fun?” Silas turned to Mia that was peeling an apple close to his bed “How did he get to have all the fun while I get nothing?” he whined.“Maybe because you enjoy lying around on your ass while people wait on you” Mia countered as she scrunched up her nose at him.“Yeah, that could be the reason,” Silas said as if contemplating before looking over at her “Wanna switch places?”“Silas, what are you talking about?” Celia, who was just entering the room at that moment exclaimed as she moved closer to her son and hit him with the dishcloth in her hand.“Ouch, mum! I am the patient here” he said with a fake groan of pain before pointin
He couldn’t breathe!Something was screaming at him and he knew that would simply die in the next moment if he did not try to escape. Where was escape?He tried to feel his legs. Run or move away but he couldn’t. It was as if a hand was pinning him down. The air felt leaden and his sense of sight seemed to have failed him.“Hello, who is there? I need help!” he thought to shout but even his mouth wouldn’t obey. He seemed to be in a place where he couldn’t control anything that initially belonged to him. “What is wrong with me?” he thought in panic but even his thought became more sluggish.Just as if his soul was leaving his body.“I don’t want to die” his mind screamed in panic and he started fighting again. He just knew that if he could get away from that cloying leading oppression, h would be free. He summoned all his strength and pushed with all he had.“Take him” he heard fleetingly before his vision became flooded with a bright, bright light that blinded him at first making his
Charlotte felt as if she would burst from the smouldering look in his eyes as he looked deeply into her eyes as if she mattered most in the world. His hands whispered over her skin in a worshipful way that made her feel special. Like she… mattered to him and this wasn’t just an in-the-moment thing. Even as she looked at him in momentary confusion, he leaned closer till she could feel her eyes cross by staring into those depthless orbs of his. Then in the last moment, he dipped his head and catch her lobe in his mouth. Her insides stretched in one long roll of alien feelings even as her nipples tightened and she knew that she would do anything to have those expert lips of his on her there. Licking. Sucking. Biting….argh! Her head lolled back and her eyes fluttered close when he pulled her earlobe into his mouth and scuked at it just as she had just fantasized about him sucking at her….. “Please, tell me I can” he whispered to her again. His warm breath on her oversensitized skin al
And she was barely talking to him! Jason seethed as he thwacked the bat against the ball so hard that it went flying. Silas raised his head from the paper he was reading or at least that he was pretending to read, to give Jason an odd look. Jason couldn’t care less. “Let’s go again” he motioned to the man who had volunteered to be his partner on the table since Silas couldn’t play yet. An idea the latter was fast regretting now. He nodded still and collected the tennis ball from the game house worker that gave him a fresh ball. Silas swallowed his mirth as he continued flipping through the magazine in his hands. The flipping sound was grazing on Jason’s nerves. The dull sounds of the gamers engaged in Mortal Combat from the next room were grazing on his nerves just as the ineptness of the man across him. He blasted the ball again and the poor man went flying while trying to keep up. “What is so hard to keep up with?” Jason thought in annoyance as he waited for the man to serve
“Woah, Woah. I am sure that if my legs could carry me fast enough, I would be running as fast as they can carry me towards the other direction too” Silas’ voice jolted Jason back into the present and he gave his friend a look.“Please, please. Don’t kill me!” Silas said in a girlish tone as he threw his hands up as if he was trying to block the killing glare of Jason’s look.“I can see that you are well enough,” Jason said in a bored tone as he tried to shrug off the gloomy mood that he was in. it had been like that for the past weeks and it was one of the reasons why he had taken a break from the company. From her…” there, not there” presence to come and check up on Silas. His friend was doing better now and they had been able to persuade the nurses that he should be allowed to leave the hospital for the day. Well, Silas had mostly done that himself. Jason found himself rusty in charming anyone these days. Not that anyone cares. He thought with a scowl that had worked as effectively
“Oh fuck!” she screamed out loud before she muffled her screams with her hands. She giggled behind her hands as she felt more powerful than she had felt in the past few months. Her whole body felt like it hadn’t been handled right for the past months. “Oh fuck yes!” she screamed as he grabbed her from behind and slammed her hard against the wall before entering her from behind. She moaned aloud, not giving a fuck if anyone should hear her now. She knew that nobody would dare enter anyway. Not when those Stetson-wearing hotties were standing at the door. She pictured having those two at the door at the same time, one of them deep inside her like this tiger pumping into her now, the other deep in her mouth while sucked the shit out of him. The mental image that brought made her come so hard and fast even as her companion pumped into her in a way she had no idea that a man of his age could. Yeah, her breast might have bruises later and she was sure that she might feel a little ache ar
“Where were you off to?” Silas asked Jason as the latter came back to join him. Since he could catch up with Jason, he had simply joined the players in the pool room. He had managed to charm some pretzels out of one of the waiters and was cheering his pick for the game on; a kid that looked as if he wasn’t old enough to be in the pool room.He munched on his salted pretzel before pointing accusingly at Jason who had a distracted look on his face “You are a terrible nurse”“I am no nurse at all” Jason responded with a smile that did not reach his eyes. “If you want a nurse, just go back to the hospital,” he said as he smiled faintly when the teenager slammed one in on his opponent and he danced in ecstasy around the pool table. “How great it was to be that young and carefree,” he thought fleetingly. He had never been that carefree at his age though. At that age, he was already out of the foster system and trying to keep the clothes on his back there.“Hello, earth to Jay,” Silas said
Jason decided to let go of any inconvenient feelings he might be developing for Charlotte. If she wanted space, then he would give her one.“You don’t need to avoid me, you know,” he said to her one morning as she was going to the office. He had requested a filling breakfast that morning much to the delight of the chef. The man cooked up a storm and Jason sat down to do justice to it.Charlotte’s footstep sounded on the staircase and Jason was amazed at the fact that he had become so attuned to her that he could pick out that soft threading sound even before she came downstairs.“You must have it bad, man,” he said to himself with a small smile as he remembered what Silas had said to him when he went to Dengal.Charlotte seemed startled when she saw him at the breakfast table doing justice to the Mexican pancake that the chef prepared. A steaming cup of cocoa to his left and assorted rolls with homemade condiments all splayed out.“Good morning,” she said hesitantly on her way out.“G

The latest of the scandals related to the Monroes was the handover event that turned out to be more than everybody expected. But instead of the event turning out to be the most humiliating for Jason as his enemies expected, it turned out to be the greatest positive publicity that he had ever gotten. Nationally and internationally, people were talking about the man who smartly outwon his evil relatives and helped the FBI and two national police to solve cases that had been open for ages. Sales in Paragon Heights and all their subsidiaries skyrocketed and their shares grew so fast that Paragon Heights' worth went from five trillion dollars to forty-eight trillion dollars in no time, with more potential. Paragon Heights became the Holy Grail of business in California and all over the world. They became the first conglomerate on permanent contract slots for the UN and many international organisations. Jason’s fame as a capable, family-minded, CEO grew with his sophisticated wife, Millice
Sonia opened her eyes and looked at him “A silly whim that I regret a lot now. I was to select a new face. Then I suddenly showed the doctor Millicent face on the phone that I wanted that. At that moment, it was to get back at her for having what I would never have - Jason, I mean. But eventually, I realise that in a silly way of mine, I was probably hoping that some of her goodness will rub off on me. Stupid, isn’t it?” she asked him with a smile, then look away again when his expression didn’t change. “Sorry,” she muttered. “You said she is happy?” he asked suddenly. She looked back at him with a questioning look on her face “With Jason. You are sure that her happiness was not just a show? She wasn’t just acting?” Sonia scoffed “Acting? She would be an idiot not to jump excitedly anytime she remembers that he belongs to her” She saw the look on his face and quickly said “Oh, I am sorry. I mean. She is very happy. She loves him. Any idiot could see that. Even when I was trying to c
Just as Millicent was settling down in her newly decorated office befitting a chairwoman; a woman who looked just like Millicent, until closely scrutinised, laughed out loud in a penthouse in Montreau. Bastion Alverro, current Capomandamento of the Alverro family gave her an askance look before asking “What is so funny in what I just said?” The woman continued laughing while trying so hard to curb her mirth “I…I am so sorry. I just couldn’t help it. Who would have thought that a powerful man like you would be a child at heart? I mean, who else would chase after someone this hard and for this long because of a silly dream?” she laughed again. Bastion looked at her again and said slowly “Something is different. Your face, that laugh. It is different” he said thoughtfully. “Oh, thank God. Finally, somebody with half a brain. I mean, I am sorry I am not trying to tell you that you have only half a brain. I am just…I was trying to tell those morons, who grabbed me that I am not that st
The drama of the morning only seemed to increase as Jasmine burst into their room, just as Millicent finished dressing. She had been distracted by Jason and dressing up had eventually taken more than an hour. Sending up a prayer to the heavens that she was fully clad, she turned towards the girl and smiled “Hey, beautiful. What’s up? What is with the rush?” “Grandpa is here,” Jasmine said excitedly. “He brought a woman with him” “Brought a…Heinrich is here?” Millicent asked in surprise. “Yes, he is. He wants to see Daddy and Isabel was acting weird” Jasmine said thoughtfully. “Oh yes, weird is the least of it,” Millicent thought anxiously. Then to Jasmine, she said “Go and tell Heinrich that we will be there soon” Jasmine skipped out of the room, her school tie swinging like a pendulum on her neck. Millicent turned to face Jason as he came out of the bathroom. He looked toward the door and asked “Was that Jas?” “Oh, it certainly was. And…well, you have a visitor” Millicent sai
“You were tossing and turning all night” Jason said to Millicent as she opened her eyes the following morning. He had been watching her for a while. “Uh? Oh, is that so?” Millicent said as she raised her head to accept Jason’s kiss “Hmm, this is surely the best way to wake up” she said as she held him tightly to herself and deepened the kiss. They were both breathing hard when they separated. Jason flopped back on his back, with his hand gently playing with Millicent’s hardened nipples. “Now, that is the best way to wake up,” he said with a chuckle. “No complaints from here,” Millicent said with a smile, then she stood up. Jason turned towards her direction and asked “Now, will you tell me what is wrong? You only toss and turn like that when you have something weighing on your mind. Is this about what I told you? About Silas?” Millicent’s eyes widened as she said “What? No, no. That is not... I mean, yes, what happened to your brother is… well, totally surprising. But I know you
“What?! Since when?” Mia’s shock-laced question resounded throughout her office floor. She looked aside to see some of the employees passing and they paused to look at her. She quickly waved at them with a smile that all was fine and hurriedly went to her door to close it. She turned back, put her phone on speaker and dropped it on her table before she said “Silas Benjamin Rouarke, what the hell are you talking about?” “Wow, that judgy tone of yours is really helpful right now, sister” Silas’s voice resounded in her spacious, elegantly furnished office. Mia raked her hand through her hair, then turned back to say “Oh, helpful? You want help? You had better hope that the host of heavens come down to help you when mom hears about this…this madness of yours!” she snapped at him. “You know what? I really do not have time for this. I must have been mistaken when I thought that I will get a little support at least from you before I talk to Jason and Mom. Guess not. Thanks for nothing” “
“That was not how I expected that brunch to go” Jason said as they got back home that day. “Yeah, you and I both” Millicent said as she went straight to the fridge to take bottled water. “You want some?” she asked Jason but he merely shook his head before he flopped onto the bed. “Poor Simon. He was beside himself with worry and guilt that he should have noticed that she was not herself” Millicent shook her head as she went to sit by him. “I am not sure he could have known when a strong-willed woman like Andrea was determined to hide something like that from him. You should have seen the look on her face before she left that restroom though. She was terrified yet showed a brave face” Jason laid his hand on Millicent’s belly as he said “I am sure they will figure out the best way to go about this and we will be there to help them with whatever they need as well” Then he sighed before saying “Does it make me a terrible person that I am glad that we do not have to worry about such a
The Monroes had a celebratory brunch with Heinrich, the deadly duo, and Anastasia the following day. Heinrich invited them to his home to celebrate his clean bill of health and the promotions. The doctor informed him the day before that the toxins in his system had been finally gotten rid of. Also, the neurotoxicity potency had been curbed to a minimal level. Though he still had to take medication for the rest of his life, new research funded by Jason was already underway on how to completely cure neurotoxicity. So they were all optimistic that he would be totally fine and free of medications soon. They all arrived for the brunch in high spirits. Everyone was still happy about the turn of events in the company. The deadly duo and Anastasia marvelled at the magnificence of Heinrich’s home. Then they all settled down to the magnificence spread provided by Heinrich’s cook and his assistants. Mouthwatering biscuits and gravy complimented the no yeast, French toast bagels so well, yet the
