The Enemy

Too Late

Elise

I have so many memories inside this house with my father, but his memories are invading the good moments of my childhood. I can keep wondering what's he doing, I wish he was here like every morning asking for his coffee.

" Can you make some for me" I think inside my mind like if he was here. I poured the coffee and sit next to him, looking at his mouth getting wet with the coffee and my heart racing for wanting to be that mug. He looked at me one more time, and came closer to touch my face so gentle so soft.

"I've been waiting for you Elise" he said

His hand touching little by little every part of my body. His lips kissing my neck and me wanting even more.

"For god sake, I can't continue like this" He is invading my mind now, what it is with this man, I can control myself thinking about him. I need fresh air.

The morning was perfect and I was with the sufficient energy for a morning run. I've been doing that for the couple of months and it really help me with my anxiety. I took the trail from my house to my mother but planning to take the other way to look at the nice lake that divides our lands.

"Good Morning"

Dammed he is here too, since when he does exercise here.

"Good Morning Jacob" My killing smiled was strong enough for him to feel intimidated.

"I didn't know you run"

"Neither do I you do"

"Fair enough" he smiled and I was melting inside.

"So, any plan now that you are back"

"Well, first will be getting my freedom"

"Right, I will talk to my lawyers about the paperwork"

"Thank you"

I took the trail to the other side of my house living him behind. I was running fast enough to lose track of him. I had plan today with Ri, Eric and Mr. Miller which I totally forgot to ask him his name. Something was feeling right for the first time in a long time.

I heard someone knocking my door and it was Mr. Miller.

"Hey, can you wait a second" I said while letting him in.

He was wearing casual clothes which was perfectly made for every muscle in his body, which I could see now from his white shirt. His blond hair perfectly comb, and his dark green eyes telling me something I cannot figure it out yet. I went to finish my hair and after a few minutes, I as ready to go.

"Is my father" I said when I saw him holding one of my father pictures.

"I see, you look more like your mother" he said smiling

"We can go now" I said nervous for being with him alone at home, he followed me and I realized how a gentleman really act.

Jacob

Today, I saw in her face how much hate she have in her heart for me. The shower was cold like my heart, after all I'm the bastard who broker her in pieces.

"Jacob can we talk" my father on my way out.

"Yes father"

"Let's talk in my office"

He said and I followed

"Did you talk to your lawyer about the divorce" he said

"No yet, why"

"Nothing, I think you should week two more weeks for that, can you do that for me"

"Sure" I can let her go, if this mean two more week, I'm fine with that.

"I know you like her Jacob, just to you know it could never be, she cannot be your wife, I will never allow it"

"Father she is my wife" I said very angry

"She is not, this is a fake marriage and I hope you understand that, there is things she will never forget, things she don't know yet"

"What things" I ask concern, she has suffer enough already.

"One day you will know"

"Don't get me involved in your things" I said closing the door mad.

The drive was quite, I was trying to think my father's words, now I need to know what it is the secret. My phone started ringing, I look at it and is Stefanie.

"Hello"

"Jacob"

"Yes"

"I miss you, I waited for you yesterday you never came"

"I ... " what I could say to her, She know the reason I didn't go, now that she is here everything has changed.

"Don't say anything, just come tonight will you?" She asked and for a moment I thought it was a bad idea, but it's not her fault, I'm the one using her.

"Yes, I will"

I have a business meeting at one of the resort my father is buying now, it was a good investment for the company since it has a beautiful view of the mountains. People come for vacation just for the view. As I drive I understand why my father was so enthusiastic with this new hotel, the view is spectacular.

Elise

I'm watching the the sun and the beautiful tree with the mountains behind. It's the most wonderful view I have seen so far.

I'm sitting in one of the third floor in one of the coffee shop the hotel have.

The breeze of the air was shocking my face but it felt so good. I have a cup of coffee on my hand, waiting for Mr. Miller who was closing a business first. Ri and Eric were late and since the view was so nice I came upside for. Abetter look.

"What a surprise" his voice is in my head all of the time for a second I thought it was my imagination but not he was there in front of me. Wearing a suit, sunglasses and his most perfect smile.

"Jacob" I asked wondering what he is doing here

"I came to close a business, my father is buying this hotel"

"Really, oh I see, the view is so nice" I said

"What are you doing here" he asked

"I'm waiting for some friends, we are planning to have lunch here"

I was lying he knows which friends, but didn't want him to know exactly who they were, since Eric is going to be here and it will be weird putting them in such as uncomfortable position.

"I see, come with me them let me show you something more beautiful than this" He said while taking me by his hand

"Where are we going" I asked trying to get myself out of his hand which was impossible for me to do it.

He took to the stairs and after I don't know how many steps we were in a room with the most amazing view human eyes could see. Everything was crystal so you could have the view of the whole forest. It was amazing, like you were touching the mountains. Waterfall could be seen in the top of the mountains. I walked closer to the windows.

"Wow it's amazing"

"I just saw this today, it's truly beautiful" he said while touching my hair.

"Jacob" I said holding his hand

"Shh .. please don't say anything" he said putting his hands in my mouth. He then hold my chin and without realizing it we were kissing, he took his jacket off and dropped on the floor, his hands touching my tights, his lips again kissing me but this time no so soft. I touch his hair kissing him back more passionately, I needed him and wanting him for god knows how long, I let him kissed me all the way through my breast, my belly and then there he was his mouth playing with my panties and I bend just with the feeling of pleasure I was already having. I could feel the wetness in my panties and my body asking for more.

"No, stop" I realized the mistake this was "this is a mistake, please live me alone, can you just f*****g leave me alone" I said running through the doors, stairs and outside the hotel. No tears were coming from my eyes, it was anger for letting things get so close again with him. It was obvious I was still his puppet and I was so mad at me for not having the strength enough to forget him.

"Elise I was looking for you" Mr. Miller was there I felt relieved just by looking at him.

"Can you please take me home" I said not daring to look at him.

"Yes of course"

He didn't ask me anything all the way home just drove quietly and gave me some space.

"Elise"

"Yes" I answered while getting out of the car.

"Jacob was the did something happened? I know all about you two, my father told me, it was so wrong of them to put you in this situation"

"It was the only choice but I'm fine, it will be over soon"

"I'm glad to hear that, by the way since you never asked my name is Lucas"

I smiled back at him and it was so good to have him now in my life.

"See you tomorrow?"

"Yes, pick me up" I said

Tomorrow, was my mother idea of a perfect vacation. What a disaster but I was glad he was coming with us.
