Nora’s POV Max pinched his nose, embarrassed. His arm tightened around my waist as l tried to untangle myself from his embrace. “ land me.” I whispered in his ear.“I don't want to.” He whispered back. He raised his head and addressed granny, “ Hello granny.” Granny’ s demeanour changed in an instant when she recognised Max, “ hello Max, l thought Nora was entertaining another man.”Max smiled fondly at granny who beamed back at him. Granny was not to be trusted. In Max's absence, she thrashed him. I expected their encounter to be uneasy and interrogative.Imagine my surprise and disappointment. But I understood their relationship, he saved her life.“Granny, my wife is not the type to stray. How have you been?.”Granny took the opposite seat and patted her lower back, “ everything is fine, thanks to you son.”“I'm glad to hear it granny. I came to Zerus for a reason. I'm taking you guys back home. Let's go home” Granny left her seat and enveloped Max in a bear hug, “ thank you Ma
Max's POV Nora's punishment blasted my heart like a raging sea. I expected some resistance when l met her after three long months but not this. I thought she would give me the cold shoulder and rant not the ultimatum to periodically visit her in Zurus or forget about her. It shocked and hurt me but I hid it deep in my heart. I thanked the stars she did not kick me out. Flying frequently between countries was going to be hard with my busy work schedule but l was determined to do it. I lifted her up and placed her full length on my body, “ woah, what are you doing?.”She attempted to get off, l gripped her waist, she wriggled and twisted her soft body, her pubis pressed against mine and sent hot heat through my veins and loins.I kissed her nose, “ is this position dangerous for the baby?. Jeez, Nora, will you stay still, you are agitating me.” “No, it's not dangerous. How am l agitating you sir?.” With narrowed and glittering eyes, she slowly humped me, a deep groan escaped my lip
Max's POV My wife's baby bump fascinated me. My hand stroked and massaged it. My fucking baby was growing in there. This baby would be protected, cherished and loved beyond measure.I anticipated my family's rebellion when l took Nora back. I lied back there to protect her. Maybe her idea was not bad, it would give me time to investigate the matter and reset my family's thinking before my wife and son come home.“Baby are you sure it's safe? What if we hurt the baby?.”“It's very safe Max, l already told you.” Nora intoned with displeasure and impatience.I spread her legs and leaned over her. l lapped at her left breast, took her engorged nipple in my mouth and sucked. She arched her back, spread her legs wider and gripped my shoulders. A low rumble emanated from my chest. I leaned back and placed her butt on my thighs, my gaze on her pink clit. I raised her ass and latched on her nub. She threshed and tried to dislodge me, l dug my heels and increased the pressure. Her body vibra
Chapter 50. Repercussions Max's POV His head bobbed up and down in quick succession. “I'm not your mate, speak up. Do you know who l am?.” His gaze spiralled downwards, “ yes Mr Ratliff, l know who you are.” I barked at him, “ keep your eyes on me like a man, you are a man right?.” He started to nod, l boxed his right ear, his head snapped to the side, his eyes popped out of their sockets. He was in extreme pain, l reckoned l burst his eardrum, which l aimed to do before we parted, l just did it sooner than i planned. “Please Mr Ratliff, I'm dizzy, can i sit down?.” My eyes sought Ralph's, he gave me the affirmative response. He was the dr after all. “Go and sit on the mattress.” I grabbed his thin shoulder and pushed him in that direction. He staggered towards the mattress, the asshole was really dizzy. It didn't matter, his punishment awaited him, if he fainted or worse, it had nothing to do with me.“Shad, l want to sit down.”“I will get someone to bring chairs, i'm tired t
Max's POV Martha lived in a gated community. Personally l did not understand why, she should be living at home since she was a lazy kid. Her day consisted of shopping, boozing and whoring around. I talked to my father about it on numerous occasions, he ignored my suggestions of sending Martha to one of my friends, a badass farmer from Soulbare, Robert. Martha did badly in academia, and maybe manual work would benefit her, my father saw it as me being harsh on his only daughter. The security guards at Martha’s place recognised me and let us through. Her lights were still on. I called her and let her know l was on my way up, she sounded drunk and sleepy. I pushed the door and found her sprawled in front of the couch, the place was filthy, with plates and liquor bottles on the coffee table, everywhere you looked there was something to offend the eye. I stood over her and nudged her side with my shoe, she peeled one eye open and grunted, “ wake up, we need to talk.” She opened the o
Nora's POV My office window blessed me with a beautiful view every morning. The colourful flowers soothed my spirit. Their fragrance wafted into the office and filled it with a pleasant smell. I poked my head out of the window and inhaled deeply, my smile content. I remained in that position until my feet ached. I was now nine months pregnant, due in four days according to the ultrasound. I walked to the couch and laid down. My husband was coming in the evening, he was to stay until l delivered. My patience waned as the hours ticked by, l missed him. Though we talked everyday, in the morning and in the evening, it could not compare to the human touch.He had visited several times since our agreement.Deep down l regretted giving him the ultimatum but i had to stick to my guns otherwise he would take me for granted forever. I also missed my hometown, the nonstop heat in Zurus sapped my strength and granny's. I never got used to it.After i clocked out l headed home, got under the s
Nora's POV I, Nora Reidy, was a 25 years old medical student. This was my last year as a student, when the results come out l would be a neurosurgeon. I had a mother but l might as well be an orphan. My mother abandoned me for a man and alcohol as a toddler, leaving me in the care of my grandmother, Sophia Reidy. My granny was now very sick, she needed a kidney transplant. Our dire family situation prevented her from the needed treatment, we were dirt poor. Right now l was on my way to a job interview at Ratliff Restaurants, to try and raise funds for her kidney transplant. I turned a corner and the Ratliff offices came into sight. I uncapped my l litre bottle filled with iced water from home, l could not afford to buy bottled water. I took a long refreshing drink and studied the building. Two glass doors faced me, l craned my neck, looked at the tallest building in Bluewaters. At the top the words Ratliff Airlines Group were written in gold against the black backdrop. My gaze moved
Nora's POV The CEO from hell graced me with his presence again. What was he doing here? He circled the table and stood beside Mrs Ratliff. Marylin beamed at me. “Nora, this is my son Max Ratli..”“ What is she doing here?.”A deep hostile voice inquired. Marylin glared at her son. “ What? Max behave please, this is Nora Reidy, my new employee.”Max stared daggers at me, “ fire her.” His mother looked at him askance, “ why would l do that, l don't meddle in your affairs, don't meddle in mine.” Max drummed his fingers on the smooth surface of the table, his intense black eyes bore into mine. “ She is a mess and clumsy, she will cost you customers.”Mrs Ratliff's gaze moved back and forth between Max and I. “ You two know each other? Perfect.” l kept quiet because l did not know the rude louse in front of me.“ Mum, were you listening to anything l said? She is not fit to work for Ratliff Restaurants.” As the duo argued about me as if l was not there, l took the opportunity to study M
