Ryan's POV
I quickly got in the car and drove off. I quickly made my way to Analisa's penthouse, which was very hard to do. During the whole drive she was very touchy-feely with me. As I park the car, I feel her hand caressing my thigh extremely close to my member. I gently grabbed her hand to stop it from traveling any further. This can not be happening right now. "Lets go up." She nods and hurriedly gets out. I take a few deep breaths before my car door is flung open. I barely manage to get the keys out of the ignition when she gently tugs my arm.
She is being aggressive right now and it is super hot. I closed the car door and tugged her hand gently to stop her. She looks back at me and I see her lust-filled gaze and her face slightly flushed. I never thought she would affect me this much. I should have accepted Declan's help. I wonder if she was like that with him.
After struggling to get her to keep her hands to herself on the elevator ride up. We made it inside the penthouse. I shouted, "Nate, are you here?" It was extremely quiet. Damn, now is not the time for him to be gone. I feel her hands slowly wrap around me, moving from my chest downward sensually. "Beautiful, you have to stop, it is getting to control myself." She whines and it is the cutest sound I have ever heard.
"Please love your skin feels so good." It is hard for me to focus because I can only concentrate on the fact that her breasts are pressed against my back. I haven't been intimate with anyone since I started working for her. I have had offers but none of the women interest me.
I led her to her room. I open the door and the next thing I know is I am pushed against the wall and she starts kissing my neck. I let out a groan because I knew I had to stop this, but it felt so good. Who knew she had a demanding side like this? Damn, I want to let her use me for her pleasure, but I can't. She just got married. This is wrong. She is still wearing her wedding dress for goodness sake.
I am pulled out of my own thoughts when she guides my hands to make contact with her semi-naked body. Oh s**t, when the hell did she take off her dress and why is she standing there in her underwear? "Please help me, it is so hot." She says in a breathy voice. I opened my mouth slightly to try and refuse again but she slammed her lips on mine in a scorching kiss. The kiss causes my mind to become foggy and empty of all other thoughts. I kissed her back with as much passion as I could muster. We both moan into the kiss. She pulls back slightly for us to catch our breath. I realized what I had just done as my mind started working again. I pushed her back gently but kept my hands on her bare shoulders. "Beautiful, how about a cold shower? It will help you." She whines again and I want to give in so badly.
She is so adorable when she acts like that. Wait, when did I ever think a girl was adorable and did cute things? Why am I so attracted to her? What is wrong with me? I cannot allow myself to feel this about her. She is my boss.
Analisa's POV
Ryan helps me into the shower and as soon as the cold water hits my skin my body is on full alert. After standing under the water for 20 minutes, I stepped out of the shower, still craving an intimate connection. Ryan wraps a towel around me so quickly it makes me lose my balance. He steadies me by grabbing my waist. I put both my hands on his chest. I want his shirt out of the way. I gently wrap my arms around his neck and pull him for another kiss. We both sigh happily into the kiss. This kiss was better than any kiss I had with Declan and that is saying a lot. Ryan's lips mold perfectly with mine. I moan when my tongue makes contact with his. He groans and pulls me closer. I slowly trail my hands from his neck down to his chest where I grasp his shirt tightly. He pulls back slightly and leans his forehead on mine. He spoke softly, "Beautiful, as good as this feels, we have to stop." I pouted at his words. "Please love, I need you to help me." He looked like he was battling mentally with himself but still said. "Please, I cannot take advantage of you, you were drugged and your my boss."
"Oh I am sorry I did not mean to force you." I pull away and tighten the towel around my body. My body trembles as the cold air hits my body from the distance that I put between us. I automatically want to go back into his arms. My mind cleared enough for me to say, "Ryan, please leave." He reaches out to touch me but I step out of reach. I needed to keep my distance from him before I let my mind be led by my drug-induced lust again. "Please forgive me and take tomorrow off." He was reluctant to leave, but he did. I cannot believe I allowed myself to be drugged. What was I thinking? I should have thought of the consequences beforehand. I mean I did, but I also did not plan this out right. I did not think I would lose control so easily. I never realized my attraction to Ryan was so great, but at the same time I still had thoughts about Declan which made me feel immense guilt.
I know deep down I will never fully forget about Declan. Declan was and will always be my first love, but it is more than that as well. He has always been my only friend since childhood. I was able to be myself around him, especially on vulnerable days. His arms made me feel safe. His kisses were filled with an innocent love and his hugs always carried a warmth I never had. Oh, when we were intimate it was good, but it always lacked something. I could never put my finger on what exactly. I now know what it was and that was a raw hungry desire filled with a burning passion that consumes and ignites every thought and fiber of my being.
I rummage through my closet. I look for a comfortable thing to wear and realize that I do not have any. I sigh as I look at all the sexy nightwear I have. I pick a silk nightgown and as I am pulling it over my head I hear a knock on my door. "Come in." My brother steps in with a glass of water in one hand and pills in the other. I swallow the pills and drink the water. I sigh and look at my brother, who is looking at me with a weird look. "What?"
He bites his bottom lip. "You look sad sis. I thought this drug was supposed to make you , you know." I sigh again and sat down on my bed. "Yeah it did. I pretty much forced my assistant and he didn't deserve that. It also made me think about Declan."
"Wow, who would have thought? I am glad you were able to control yourself in the end. Want to talk about it?" He says.
"Talk about what? How I almost forced and seduced my assistant? Or that I still think about my ex? Or the fact I allowed myself to consume the damn drug to begin with?" I asked sarcastically.
"Whatever you need to talk about, sis. I am here for you." I laughed. "Can we talk about it later when the medicine helps the drug to lose its effects?" He looked at me in embarrassment but nodded. "I will leave you to rest, sis." He takes his leave and closes the door. I glanced at the clock and saw it was still early. It was barely past noon.
Who drugs people this early in the day? I am going to say a desperate person. What I want to know is what Austin thinks he will gain from us consummating our marriage. I will not magically fall in love with him because I sleep with him. I would probably catch something other than love.
I lay down on my bed and forced myself to take a nap.
I opened my eyes and directly looked at the clock and saw it was now 2pm. I got up and looked around my room to see my dress now hung up and a new glass of water on my nightstand. My brother must have come to check on me. I go to my bathroom. As I caught a glimpse of my face in the mirror, I realized my face was now make-up free. I did not even know my brother knew how to remove make-up. And how did he not wake me up while doing it? I wash my face of the tiredness. I brush my hair and quickly put it in a bun. After I finish my hair I go back to my closet this time to find something else to wear.
I choose a black silk camisole and light blue ripped fitted jeans and a pair of black sandals. I pass by my vanity but stop as I look at my reflection again. "You are beautiful without make-up sis." I clutch my chest as soon as I heard my brother speak. "s**t, you scared me. I almost had a heart attack for goodness sake."
He chuckles at me. "I was hoping I could catch you by surprise." I glare at him playfully. "Nice to know bro and thanks for the compliment. I would like to go without make-up but I have an image to uphold and I cannot quite let it go just yet."
He hums in response. "Then maybe use less make-up?" I smile at him through the mirror. "I already planned to."
I sat down at the vanity and put on a light coat of foundation, a simple cat eye and bright red lipstick. I can see my brother smiling at me. "Take a picture, it will last longer bro." He took it literally and whips out his phone and starts taking pictures of me. I stood up and posed for a few. We both end up laughing but he comes to stand next to me and takes a few selfies of us together. "You are lucky our parents are not here. They would have charged you for those photos, you know." He scoffs.
"I do not doubt it. They are always trying to make a profit." I giggle. "Someone is bitter about it." He huffs "As if you aren't."
"That could not be any more true, Brother." I smirked at my brother who was looking at me curiously, but he just turned to exit my room, so I jumped on his back. "Oh goodness grief, you are heavier than you look." I held on tight to my brother and laugh. "You are just weak brother I am here to help you strengthen those spaghetti arms of yours." He pinches my leg and mutters "Pff this is the apple of my eye." I laugh again. "I love you bro." I am happy to have my brother back in my life. We have gotten a whole lot closer since his return. He still pays rent, which I have told him he no longer needs to pay. I know it was wrong of me to ask in the first place, but I did not know him anymore because we lost touch. I can not just trust anyone, no matter who they are, and that includes family.
I have many people waiting to see my downfall, so I have to watch my own back. I have been betrayed before by a few people who were close to me. My own cousin made a profit off of information about me and a few personal photos before she disappeared like a thief in the night. She even cut contact with her parents, which made them cut contact with me.
My brother drops me on the couch and tries to sit on me when I ask, "How are aunt and uncle?" He freezes for a brief moment. "I never thought you would actually ask about them." I tilt my head and stare at him. "What about gandma and grandpa?" He inhales and looks like he is considering which words he wants to use.
"Well, our grandparents are fine. Have they not reached out?" I shake my head and he sighs sadly. Yeah, they chose my cousin's side, saying she did nothing wrong. He adds, "As for our aunt and uncle, I think they feel guilty for what our cousin did. That is why they cut off contact with you. I am sorry sis. I never realized how short the stick you ended up with actually was."
I smile at him trying to cover the hurt I felt. "I still had our godparents'." He smiles at the mention of them. "Yeah, we won the lottery with them." I smile a genuine smile at him. "I am glad they kept in touch with you all these years." He grins. "Yeah, unlike my sister." My smile falters and he catches it. "Sorry sis I know you did not mean it. We were both really young. Besides, I know once you were old enough you had eyes on my every move protecting me." I hummed and gave him a small smile. He adds. "I tried to do it for you too, but you always knew." I giggle. "Good to know how you spent your money." He grins at me but there was a hint of sadness. "I know you shared some of your money with me. Thank you."
I looked away from him acting clueless. "I don't know what you are talking about." He sighed quietly. "Please don't play dumb. Our godparents make good money but not enough to send me as much as I received and I know our parents barely covered the school fees." I look back at him and see he has tears in his eyes as he adds. "I never thanked you before today. I am sorry sis, I love you and I am so grateful you are my sister." I looked at the ground, finding it more interesting. I hate emotions. They make me feel weak. "No need to mention it. Let's go see what Austin got into and then we can go get dinner."
