Diehard Desire

Birthday Part-II

Her eyes scanned her surrounding one more time before she looked down to the metal hun glinting in the light coming from the glass window. Despite the fear ceasing at her neck, she did not sit down in her previous seat. Instead, in a state of panic she did something extremely reckless.

"Help. Someone please help." Ivannah shouted at the top of her lungs.

Almost immediately the whole cafe quietened. Atleast ten pairs of eyes stared at her and after looking at her ashen face, people stood up from their chairs and came rushing towards her.

Ivannah heard the man infront of her curse under his breath before hiding his gun somewhere in his suit. As soon as the gun disappeared from her sight, Ivannah almost fainted in relief.

"Are you alright, sweetie?" A kind looking woman in her mid-thirties appeared beside Ivannah and touched her in reassurance before looking at the man suspiciously.

"Is this man causing you any trouble?" A young man, no more than 25 asked her making Ivannah nod her head almost immediately.

Blaze stood up to argue but on the sight of 7 men glaring at him in disgust he scrowled and pushed back the chair in anger before buttoning his suit jacket.

"I'll see you soon, Ivannah." He said with a small smirk on his face.

Ivannah felt a shiver run down her spine on hearing her name leave his lips. She gulped in fright and sat down in the chair behind her to stop herself from falling. She had thought that was some kind of sick predator but the fact that he knew her name made her think twice about her baseless assumptions.

Ivannah put her hand inside her purse to take out her phone as she got out of the place to have some kind of solace and inform the guard's of her location.

She almost started screaming when she ran into a hard chest as soon as she stepped onto the sidewalk. A hand took ahold of her upper arm and urged her to calm down and a soothing voice. She looked up wide-eyed to see her personal guard Joe looking down at her with thinned lips.

Not too far behind him she noticed the other guard that she had narrowly escaped outside the fancy boutique. She saw his clenched jaw and looked down at her feet in shame. Before she could explain and justify herself in any way, she was being escorted towards the black car parked not 5 feet from her.

The other guard, Mark opened the back door of the car as Joe helped her in. Iris was immediately hugging her tightly and mumbled something about being worried. But Ivy's mind was somewhere else. How could the man have known my name? Who was he?

The rest of the car ride was spent in complete silence. Ivannah felt Iris's questioning gaze on her from time to time but ignored it. She didn't understand what to tell her. She could hardly understand everything that had happened in the last half hour.

Ivannah locked eyes with Joe in the rear-view mirror a couple of time and guilt had her looking down into her lap in shame. Her eyes were filled with tears but she couldn't let them fall right now. She would cry once she was alone in the safety of her bedroom.

The day was going so good. For the first time in years everything was perfect. Why do I have to ruin everything?

Mark was seated in the passenger seat and Ivannah watched in horror as he dialled a number saved as Boss. She had no doubt in her mind about who the number belonged to but her suspicion only seemed to become a reality as soon as she saw Mark flinch away from the phone after narrating the whole ordeal.

The car came to a smooth halt infront of the mansion and Ivy quickly jumped of the the automobile to get away from the accusations in Joe and Mark's stare. But she came to an abrupt halt as soon as she stepped foot inside the threshold of the mansion.

Mr Salvatore stood there beside a worried-looking Frank supposedly waiting for their arrival. Ivannah thought of him as Mr Salvatore because he was nothing like the man she had seen last night or this morning. It was like she was looking at a completely different person. A terrifying person.

He looked normal enough on first glance but when Ivannah looked at him more carefully she noticed his tensed shoulder and cold eyes. He wasn't glaring at her or even her guards but his eyes looked like the calm before a storm.

He didn't shout or scream at Ivannah for being stupid or careless, he just stared. And that scared her more. If he had shouted, Ivannah would have known that it was the worst he had planned on doing. She would have signed in relief that the worst had passed.

But he didn't do any of that.

Ivannah listened as he told Joe and Mark in a very controlled voice to see him in his office. But Ivannah could hear an underlying threat in his words. They both left almost immediately as if they couldn't bear to see what was about to happen.

They were completely alone in the barren foyer with noone but them in sight.

A shiver shook Ivannah's body and her teeth clattered together as a chilling wind blew past her. Ivy was suddenly well aware that in the frenzy to get out of the car she had left her jacket behind. She rubbed her palms against her arms in a futile attempt to warm herself.

Ivannah saw a pair of extensive looking Italian shoes enter her line of sight as she promptly stared at the ground before she was engulfed with sudden warmth. She looked up at Hades as he put his suit jacket around her and an apology almost left past her lips. But Ivannah wasn't so self-absorbed. She understood that she had made a mistake after being specifically told by Hades to not wander away from her security. So she kept her mouth shut.

"You always seem to be cold." Hades spoke.

He was reminded of the day that he had first seen Ivannah at the orphanage. Of how frail and weak she looked in the old, withered clothe which could hardly provide her with any warmth.

Hades looked into her beautiful sapphire eyes and could clearly see the guilt behind them but he was too angry to care at the time. This was the first time in his life that a person crossed him twice and still stood breathing. Even his siblings were too scared of him to do anything he specially told them not to do.

Yet he couldn't get himself to say a harsh word to her.

He was angry with her but he couldn't get himself to be cruel.

Hades couldn't help himself as he ran a finger across her cheek that seemed to turn a beautiful shade of pink in the cold air. He watched her breath hitch in her throat and took a precautionary step backwards. He couldn't be so close to her in this state of mind. He needed to calm himself down first.

"Meet me in my office in an hour."

With that he turned around and left her standing alone in the empty foyer feeling worse than ever. Bile rose up her throat as she walked through the hallways towards her room. Here and there, a maid gave her a sympathetic look and a small pat on her shoulder making her feel like irked.

They made her feel like it was Mr Salvatore that was abusing her. She had landed herself in the situation through her own stupidity. Thinking about the man from the cafe and everything that had happened so far gave her the worst case of headache she ever hand and tears welled up in her eyes.

This is all my fault. I ruin everything.

Ivannah quickly opened the door of her room and shut in behind her as a fresh set of emotions overpowered her. Her hidden insecurities of not being good enough for anyone and always being left alone surrounded her like a dark cloud. What if he leaves me again?

The thought seemed to petrifying enough to make her forget about everything else.

A small bark made Ivannah jump in her place at the bedroom door before looking around alert. Ivy found Elena sitting on the rug at the foot of her with a small puppy in her lap.

Ivy tried smiling at Elena but Elena noticed the tears in her eyes and patted the rug beside her calmly. Without asking any questions, Ivannah removed her shoes and sat down on the rug. For the longest time neither of them said anything. They just played with the over-excited puppy and smiled at his antics.

"Grace let you get a dog." Ivannah finally asked Elena with a forced smile.

"He is not mine. He is yours." Elena replied making Ivannah look at her in confusion. Ivy watched as Elena took out an elegant looking envelop and handed it to her.

Instead the envelope was a handwritten note.

Dear Ivannah,

I'm not very good at this. I have spent years living at my own terms and looking at life through my own biased lens. So forgive me if I'm doing it wrong.

But waking up in the early hours of the morning and watching you as you unconsciously curled up into my side for warmth and released a contented sign as a kitten finding her share of cream didn't just warm your body but it warmed my heart too.

I could lay there for an eternity just watching you breath and not ask for anything out of life.

I would be lying if I said that I completely regret being absent from your life all these years. I'm aware that if I had stayed I would have had different feelings for you. Something more appropriate. Fatherly, even.

But I wish for no such thing. I cannot imagine looking at you in any other light then I do now. I cannot imagine looking at you and not seeing everything I have ever wanted.

I hope you will accept my gift and he takes away the loneliness I had bestowed unknowingly upon you all these years ago and if not completely then fills up the void left in your heart just a little.

To your 18th and many more birthdays to come.

Yours,

Hades.

Ivannah weeped with the letter clutched between her hands before laying her head on Elena's small lap.

She was thankful at the moment that Elena wasn't the kind of person to ask questions. She just massaged Ivy's scalp and let her cry.

"You love him?" The innocent question made Ivannah stop almost immediately.

Could it be possible to fall in love with a person so soon? Certainly not. And there was still the fact that he was her guardian and a relationship between them would be licentious and immortal. No she couldn't fall in love with him.

But the way her heart felt like it was going to break into half at the thought of a life without him said otherwise.

"I'm scared I'll get hurt again." Ivannah finally said after some thought as she wiped her face, "I'm scared of the uncertainty." She admitted.

"Only in uncertainty there is chance for possibility." Elena said quietly, "And you cannot expect to find a lifetime of happiness without a leap of faith." Ivannah's eyebrows creased and she got up from Elena's lap to stare at her face.

"How old are you, little mum?" Ivy asked her seriously only for Elena to grin mischievously.

"I may be physically younger then you but my soul is much more ancient." Ivannah watched her open mouthed only for the puppy to lick her face lovingly.

They both laughed until Ivannah's eyes landed on the clock beside her bed. She jumped up from the floor and placed Hades's jacket on the bed cautiously, wiping her face in a hurry. She was supposed to be in his office ten minutes ago but she had completely forgotten.

As soon as Ivannah entered Hades's ambit and felt the timorous stillness of the room her heart came into her throat. There infront of his desk stood Joe and Mark with an unknown man beside them while Hades sat in his chair. Ivannah swallowed before slowly walking towards his desk making sure not to look him in the eye.

Ivannah made the mistake of looking him in the eye and the expression in them chilled her to the core. They were so cold that she could literally feel all the warmth fleeting her body upon staring into them.

He had never looked to her like this before, not even the night he came back only to find out she had sneaked out to attend a high school party. She choose to stay silent in fear of angering him further.

Hades stared at her for some time with the same expression before waving his hand at the three men to leave. Lorenzo, Hades's second-in-command left immediately but the two reckless guards stayed behind.

"Sir, it is not her fault. I let her get out of my sight." Mark tried persuading the boss to save Ivannah from the wrath that she had unknowingly brought upon herself.

Ivannah felt a sudden gratitude in her heart for Mark at his attempt to save her. She promised herself that she would do whatever it takes to make sure Joe and Mark didn't loose their jobs.

"Get out." Hades's hard tone was one that Ivannah couldn't imagine even the devil going against.

Joe and Mark left the room immediately after throwing her an apologetic glance. Ivannah heard the door close behind them and held her breath for what was to come.

A sense of Deja-vu filled her as Hades got up from his chair. He rounded his table again in a predatory stance before standing infront of her with his hands in his pant pocket. Ivannah looked at the button on his shirt and didn't dare stray her eyes.

She was forced to look into his eyes when he took ahold of her chin and turned her head upwards. He had successfully masked all his anger in his face and gave nothing away. But his eyes, his eyes were hard and cold as if they didn't possess an ounce of warmth in their depth.

"You are angry." Ivannah noted almost to herself.

"Raging." Was the only answer.

"Wrath is one of the seven deadly sins." She reminded him.

"You haven't seen sin yet, my angel."

Hades brought his face impossibly close to her to the point where their noses were almost touching. Ivannah's eyes involuntarily looked down towards his lips and she heard him growl in the back of his throat.

"Tell me what happened." He ordered her at once.

Ivannah went into a fumbled and detailed version of everything that happened at the cafe. She watched his expression morph from one of worry to that her anger as she described the man that called himself Blaze and how he threatened her with a gun.

Hades just hugged her to her chest for a couple of minutes whispering how thankful he was that she was safe and how smart she was to have attracted people's attention at the right time instead of giving in to his demands.

"You have angered me so much by your carelessness." He finally whispered against her ear before releasing her abruptly.

Ivannah watched confused as he walked to the couch before removing his suit jacket. He sat down on the large couch before removing the tie from his neck. He unbuttoned his sleeves before rolling them up one by one. All the while his eyes remained on her.

Once he was done, he looked at her with ablaze eyes.

"Come and lie down across my lap." Hades said behind slapping his thighs as an indication.

"Why?" Ivannah asked dumbly even though the scene was quite clear. She felt heat pooling between her lower lips and even though she would never admit it to him but she was aroused by the thought of him punishing her.

"I'm going to s***k you, Ivannah." Hades said before giving her another scorching look.

Ivannah licked her lips but walked towards him obediently. Once she was a foot away from him, she looked at him from behind hooded eyelids. Her cheeks were flushed in anticipation and her lips were slightly parted. She looked like the epitome of Aphrodite.

"Remove you pants completely and lie across my lap." Hades said in a husky voice upon seeing her form but almost immediately realised what he had said.

"You can keep your panties on, if you want." He added to give her some sense of comfort.

Ivannah unbuttoned her pants with shaky hands and bit her lip as she saw him watching her revel her skin little by little. Once completely out of them she put them on the handrest of the couch. Ivannah didn't wish to remove her panties, to have a little sense of privacy from him prying gaze and not wanting for him to realise how wet she really was.

Hades held her wrist softly and helped her lay down on his lap comfortably. Ivannah felt something poking her hip and shifted a little in her place making Hades hiss. Ivy realised what the thing poking her was and she blushed a crimson red.

"Ready?" Hades asked as he kept one of his hand on her lower back. Ivannah nodded not trusting her voice at the moment.

The first s***k was so unexpected that it made Ivannah shriek. Hades massaged the skin where he had s*****d a moment ago. The sight of his handprint on her pale skin made him curse under his breath.

He administered another hard s***k on her other cheek making her shriek once again. He massaged the other mould of fat and leaned forward to whisper in her ear.

"Next time, I'm going to make you hold your panties in your mouth to muffle the sounds."

He watched with satisfaction as a small moan left past her lips and she arched her back.

Taking a deep calming breath Hades brought his hand back to her ass. s***k. Massage. s***k. Massage. s***k. Massage. He followed the same pattern again and again, taking turns s******g each cheek. By the fourth s***k Ivannah's shrieks turned into moans.

Spank. Massage. s***k. Massage. s***k. Massage. After s******g her ten times he finally stopped and ran his hand over the reddened skin. Ivannah moaned at the warm sensation and the slight stinging on her ass as his hand massaged them.

Hades gently helped her off his lap and stood up with her. He guided her towards his desk before ordering her to bend over. Ivannah bend over without another peep and listened as he opened a door and disappeared behind it.

Hades came back not one minute later and layed something beside her hip on the table. His fingers grasped Ivannah's panty making her breath hitch. Hades bend over her form on his table until his mouth was right above her ear.

"Relax, love. I won't do anything you don't want me to do." He said in her ear making her shiver, "I just want to apply something to help you with the pain. Okay?" He waited for her permission and stood straight again when she nodded in affirmative.

Hades got down on his knees behind her as he removed the panties from her body leaving her completely bare for his eyes waist-down. His mouth watered at the sight of her arousal and he almost put his mouth on her virgin folds before he stopped himself. I wouldn't touch her in an intimate way until she specifically tells me to.

With all the restraint he could muster her stood up from behind her. His b***r was right infront of her ass and the vivid image of him taking her from behind on his desk filled his mind.

Hades grind his teeth as he put some soothing cream on his palm. Very slowly he touched her ass with his hand as to not startle her. Slowly her stared spreading the cream on her flesh and massaged her behind.

He heard Ivannah moan and closed his eyes tightly shut. He couldn't take the torture much longer. He opened his eyes and looked at her once again. Her blonde hair lay messily on her back and she had her hand over her mouth to stifle her moans of pleasure. This is too much.

Hades stepped aside as to not loose himself at the erotic image infront of his. If she had been completely his, if she had been comfortable enough with him, she would have taken a picture of her in that moment as a souvenir. There will be plenty of time for that later.

"Get up." He ordered only to immediately regret his hard tone. Ivannah stood straight, nonetheless.

She heard his footsteps as he moved around the room. Ivannah was slightly embarrassed at her own body's reaction and kept her mouth shut. Hades came up behind her and put her pants silently on his desk before stepping back to give her space.

Ivannah stared at her pant but made no move to take them. Without uncertainty there is no possibility. Elena's word's resonated inside her head. If you wish for lifelong happiness you have to take a leap of faith.

Maybe it was the fact that she was hoping, waiting for some kind of sign to make her believe that this was not so immoral or maybe it was the fact that she wanted this so badly-but Ivannah found herself agreeing with the words of a 7 year old.

She abandoned her pants and turned around to look at Hades. With only her spaghetti top and nothing else covering her body from his greedy eyes, she walked towards him.

She put her hand on his chest, as erotically as she could muster and looked up at him from under her lashes. She heard him take as sharp breath and noticed how his eyes became hungry and predatory. As if a wild beast looking at it's last meal. And Ivannah couldn't wait to be devoured by him.

Ivy stood on her toes and brought her body closer to him. She felt hope as his strong arm wound tightly around her waist and brought her flush against him.

"I want to sin." She whispered huskily against his mouth and licked her lips slowly.

She gasped as his hand suddenly took a hold of the back of her neck, forcing her to look into his eyes instead of his lips. He brought his face impossibly closer to her until they were breathing each other's air.

"Be careful, Angel. I'm neither a Saint nor a Hermit." Hades warned huskily, "I have no chastity when it comes to what I desire."

"I'm starting to realise that neither do I."

With that Ivannah crushed her lips against his, deciding against over thinking anything for the first time in her life. Hades was to shocked to respond for a couple of seconds but then he got his senses back.

He crushed her body to his, eliminating any distance between them. His movements were frenzied and he ran his hand over her body like a starved man. His hands finally landed on Ivannah's bare behind and he squeezed making her moan.

Taking that as an opportunity he thrust his tongue into her mouth and tasted her. He made a sound deep in his chest and Ivannah found herself loving the sound.

She returned his actions with equal vigour and fought a battle of dominance in her mouth with his tongue. Hades turned her head to the side and penetrated her mouth a little deeper.

They only separated their lips when both of them were completely out of breath. Hades touched his forehead to hears to stared into her eyes. Ivannah liked seeing the warmth back in his eyes. The one he had lost when he found about her escapade.

Her lower lip tingled with need and without thought Ivannah took Hades's hand and brought it to her hair-covered mold. She wasn't embarrassed by the hair on her pelvis rather she was curious of how he would react to it. She watched pleased as he swallowed before throwing his head back and groaning.

Hades wasn't aware that he had passed the test and Ivannah's expectations. The only thing her was aware of was the head pooling between her legs from just his kisses. He couldn't imagine what would happen when he stimulated her further.

He found himself moving his hand against her wet folds almost unconsciously. He only became aware of his action when a pleasured moan left past her lips and it only seemed to encourage him further.

Hades explored her untouched folds for a little longer. Collecting her juices on his fingers before leaving her wanting for more. He grinned and held her gaze as he brought his fingers, wet with her essence to his awaiting lips. He sucked her juices off his finger in strepitous way.

Ivannah's breathing accelerated and she felt light headed at the erotic sight. She had never imagined that a sight so profane could be so arousing. She let out a shaky breath through her mouth as his mouth descended on her again. He sucked in her bottom lip into his warm mouth and released it very slowly making her moan louder.

"I don't really know how to pleasure a woman." He admitted near her mouth making her eyes snap to his, "All I have done so far is chase my own pleasure."

He smirked maliciously on seeing the disappointment on Ivannah's face before she looked away from him. He couldn't help himself as he took hold of her chin making her look into his eyes.

"Maybe you could teach me." Hades suggested making Ivannah's eyes widen.

She didn't protest as he slowly led her back to his table by her waist. He gave her another panty dropping smirk once he had her cornered against his desk. You are not wearing any panties, you fool. Her subconscious chided sassily. Her face warmed up at the reality of the situation but she stubbornly maintained eye contact with him.

Hades took hold of her waist as easily lifted her until she was sitting on top of her desk. But unlike she had hoped, he did not kiss her. He slowly lifted one of her feet and removed her scandal. He bend her knee and pushed her feet until she kept it on the edge of the wooden table.

His eyes didn't waver from her even once and neither did hers.

He repeated the same process with her other feet and finally stepped back.

It took Ivannah a couple of seconds until she realised how very exposed she was in this position. Her feet were spread wide and her knees bend to expose her most intimate part to him.

But he wasn't looking at the sight inbetween her legs, he was looking into her eyes. And that gave her some solace.

"Show me how to pleasure a woman, Ivannah." Hades encouraged making her blush a crimson red.

"I-I..." Ivannah fumbled with her words, all her earlier surge of confidence seemed to evaporate into thin air.

"Don't overthink this, love." Hades pleaded but also decided that if she showed any further hesitation than he wouldn't push her.

To his great relief, Ivannah slowly raised a hand towards her labia. She slowly spread her juices all over her folds and was a little surprised at how wet she really way.

Her hand slowly skimmed against her throbbing c**t making her moan deeply. She drew circular patterns on her swollen c**t and threw her head back in pleasure.

Hades watched every fleeting expression on her face and felt himself straining against his zipper. His member was so hard at the sight of her flushed face so close as she pleasured herself for him that it leaked pre-c*m into his boxer briefs.

But he didn't take out him member from it's confines, unable to violate his angel by pleasuring himself to her.

His eyes finally moved down until they landed on inbetween her legs. And he had never seen a more beautiful sight in his life. It was as beautiful and serene as the rest of her. Her skin was still red from his earlier s******g.

But the sight between her legs was what made him thank the heaven above for such a perfect creation. The skin between her legs was a light shade of pink with dark blonde hair surrounding it. Hades found himself salivating at the sight of the her wetness.

He groaned as he watched her enter a finger into her weeping hole. He could imagine her hole expanding to accommodate his member when he finally took her and he closed his eyes shut at the erotic sight.

Almost immediately, he opened them again as a loud moan left past her lips. He watched mesmerised as her finger rubbed more frantically against her c**t, stimulating it as she came closer and closer to her release.

His nose flared as the smell of her arousal mingled in the air of his office. His lips parted as Ivannah arched her back with a scream as she finally reached her o****m before laying down breathlessly on his desk. It was the most erotic sight he had ever seen and he almost came then and there in his pants.

Hades finally had her and he planned on never letting her go.
