“Let me go! Let me go!” My nails scraped his hands, trying to free me from the clutches.
“The less you defy me, the less you fuck up, and the lesser chances you give me to ruin you,”
He breathed down against my skin, pressing his lips against my throbbing pulse and feeding on my fear.
His eyes scanned me from head to toe, and with his free hand, he tore the dress from me in one swift motion.
I screamed. It was the only thing I could do as the once pretty yellow material floated down to the ground, leaving me naked and exposed.
"Let me go," I begged. "Please, Raffaele. I can't do this anymore, please let me go."

"My perfect little sub," he murmured huskily against my lips, his voice thick with desire as he continued to explore the depths of my mouth with his tongue. He reached over to turn off the running water. In a smooth motion, he effortlessly lifted me and settled me onto the slightly elevated sink.
"Raise your shirt." his voice was a low command. I complied without hesitation, lifting the fabric slowly until it gathered just below my belly button.
My pussy was in full view now and he stared at it, appearing completely enamored by my body.
"Now, hug your legs," he directed firmly.

I never intended to run into him again.
I had a passionate one-night encounter with a stranger five years ago; the man's touch pierced my spirit. We never looked back and never swapped names. He was gone by daybreak. I found out I was having his kid a few weeks later.
Without him, I created my life, took care of my kid by myself, and gave my all to my work. Until the harsh hand of destiny chose to play.
I am now facing my new business partner, Johnson Kingston, a millionaire and nasty CEO. My heart freezes the once his sharp eyes meet mine. However, it pales in comparison to the way he gazes at my daughter.
His daughter.
Everything is going to be destroyed by the secret I worked so hard to keep. Because Johnson wants power, not just answers. And then he murmurs, "Salome, you ought to have told me." You can't flee now because it's too late.
I understand that losing my freedom could not be the only thing I lose. I might end up losing my heart again.

He swings me around to face him and brings me against his chest. I gasp loudly and place my hand on his chest.
“Where do you think you are going?”
“Over there.” I whimper, nodding in the direction of the stools.
He stares down at me, a stare so intense it causes a shiver to run down my spine. I swallow hard, and he dips down, his warm lips covering mine. I moan and fist his tee, kissing back. Conrad runs his hand down my back and places it on the small of it to hold my body tighter to his as we kiss. I snake my arms around his neck.
A part of me has been craving his kiss since our first one. The kiss is passionate but not forceful or rough. It is pretty perfect. Conrad’s free hand lands on my cheek. I forced my tongue into his mouth; I needed a little more. Conrad doesn’t seem to have an issue with it because his tongue soon dances in perfect sync with mine.
I walk backwards, not parting from his lips, until my back hits a counter. There are so many emotions circulating in me. I grip his hip and pull him against me. Conrad groans loudly into my lips, and I can feel his length harden against me. He is turned on this much by just kissing me. I am the same, though. I am aroused for the first time in a long time.
One night.
One masquerade ball.
A handsome stranger.
It is how it all began, All because I was forced to attend by my boss to pretend to be her daughter or I would be fired.
The handsome stranger's eyes fall on me the second I walk in. I hoped he would move on since he is surrounded with beautiful women, but he doesn’t. The second he decides to approach, I finally realise he isn’t a stranger at all. He and his family own the company I work for. He can never find out who I am.
I try everything to avoid him, but nothing works. It is hard to resist when he stares at me with those eyes and charming smile. I give in trying to fight it, spending a few hours with him can’t do any harm, right? As long as I keep my mask on, he doesn’t need to know who I am.
I have never felt chemistry in the way I do with him, but it doesn’t matter because after tonight, I will disappear and he will have no idea who I am. Even if he walked past me in the street he wouldn’t notice because what he see is a woman who he is attracted too, one beautiful who fits in with everyone else, but in a reality I am a no one. I am nothing special. So our time spend together will only be a memory.
Well, so I believed. I couldn’t have been more wrong because all it takes is one night and everything changes. I hoped he would have forgotten about me but it seems to be the last thing he does.
No matter what, he can never find out the truth because he will only end up disappointed.

What was that?

"Why, Lo?" he asked, trying to catch her eyes which she had firmly planted on the napkin she was still fiddling with.
"Why what?" she knew exactly what he was asking but she definitely didn't want to answer him.
"Why did you run away? Why do you run away every time?" he asked, sounding stressed, "am I reading you wrong? Is it that you don't like me?"
"Of course not," she snapped.
"Then what's the answer?" he pressed, "what happened to you that makes you so afraid?"

"I don't want to talk about it," she finally replied.
He sighed, "I really like you, Lo. In fact, I'm falling in love with you. And I know you like me to. We both know it."
