An Appetite for Love Page 38

  They continued this for a very long time before he pulled away, glancing at her with a smile.

  “Do you want to continue this elsewhere?” he asked her.

  She didn’t have to be told twice. Soon, the two of them made their way out of there, even though it was obvious that they wanted to go back there once they were done. She wanted to make sure afterwards that none of the wounds reopened or anything. When they got to her room, she pushed the door open, climbing into the bed. He climbed on top of her, and for a moment, they just looked at one another, their breath mingling with each other.

  “I can’t believe I got so lucky. I think you’re the reason I managed to stay alive,” he said.

  Hearing that was really sweet in her opinion. She never expected to feel this way about another person, but to her, it definitely did feel right.

  “Well sometimes the right person comes on by, and it’s something that you both enjoy,” she admitted.

  He smiled, and soon his lips were against her own once again, both of them tasting and feeling the way the other felt under them. He pushed his tongue into her mouth, tasting her once again. The two of them started to massage their wet muscles against one another, groans echoing through the room. She could feel the hard bulge in Jude’s pants, and already she could tell that her body was growing hot with pleasure too.

  He then pulled away, smiling at her as he kissed down her body. His lips caressed over her neck, lightly biting on the muscles while his hands moved through her dark tresses. She blushed, moaning in wanton pleasure as he continued his onslaught against her body. This was perfect, simply perfect, and this was exactly what she was craving.

  After a moment or so, he then pulled away, smiling at her and looking at her with a grin. He moved his lips right over her collarbone once again, biting down on the skin to elicit a moan from her. He bit down hard enough to leave a mark, and she would cherish it. She knew that at this moment, this was the only thing that mattered to her.

  He pulled away, looking at her as she breathed heavily.

  “You look so pretty right now,” he said to her.

  She wanted to respond, but then he did something that was completely unexpected. He grasped her shirt, throwing it over her head to expose her pink bra. She blushed at the color choice, realizing that she grabbed a bra that really didn’t fit with her black top. Jude didn’t care though, fro soon his lips were moving down her body, lightly kissing and touching the edge of her collarbone before he got to her covered breasts. She had a nice set, and Jude did admire them, grasping them softly and massaging the cups. Leia let out a small, breathy moan as he did this. She thought about the fact that she almost lost this man dude to everything that had happened, and soon she was trying to shake the bad feelings away. She didn’t want to think about that, but instead she wanted to be happy and continue to feel all of this.

  He then started to move his hands to the back of her bra, undoing the clasp and letting the garment fall off her body. She gasped, realizing this was the first time he had seen her like this. Back then, they did have sex, but it was more of a quick fuck than anything, and this time they were expressing the love they had for one another. He gazed at her breasts, lightly touching and fondling them, making her moan in pleasure as he did this.

  He then started to move his lips to the edge of her areola, lightly caressing his lips against the sides of it before he pushed his tongue in circles around the bud. She let out a small moan, lightly bucking her hips in pleasure at the action he took. He continued to tease the nipple, sucking on it slightly while his hand tweaked the other in a soft and sensual way. She already felt as if she was going insane, and this bad boy certainly knew how to treat her right.

  After a moment or so, he then pulled away, smiling at her with a grin before he moved his hands to her stomach, roaming against the area before he got to the edge of her pants, lightly stripping them off of her. There was the familiar place, the familiar loins that he had seen before, but this time, they were there for him to touch and pleasure, not just for a moment, but for as long as he wished.

  He pushed her legs apart, touching her thick thighs and caressing them. Leia let out a panting moan, bucking her hips up at the actions he undertook. He then let his tongue dance over her clit, teasing it with small strokes before he dove into her, letting his lips touch the edge of her entrance before he dipped it in. She let out a series of moans and gasps of pleasure, and soon he continued that for a while. It was obvious that there was only a matter of time before she was about to go completely and utterly insane, and soon he was teasing her even more so with each move. He prodded her entrance, and soon she was holding onto him, bucking her hips up to meet him. He slithered away after a while, removing his pants and grasping his wallet. In there was a condom, and after a couple of moments, he sheathed his cock. He slid his shirt off too, and soon the two of them looked at one another.

  “You look amazing,” she breathed.

  “Look who’s talking. You’re the gorgeous one,” he murmured.

  Hearing that was enough to drive her completely mad. Leia then spread her legs, and soon Jude was at her entrance sliding in. The two of them were looking at one another with full eye contact as he started to thrust into her. She let out a moan as he penetrated her inside, moving his hips as he pressed directly into hr.

  Leia wrapped her arms around him, grasping him as he continued to move within her. It was amazing, and with each and every touch, she felt as if she was about to go insane from the sheer pleasure of the moment. He continued his onslaught against her body with her thrusts, enjoying the reactions that he got from her. He continued this for a while, both of them relishing in the fact that they could give everyone the pleasure that they deserved.

  After a few more thrusts, he pushed his cock right up against her g-spot, making her scream out. She tightened around him, her pussy hugging his erect member as she came hard, her release spilling out of her. At that exact moment, he groaned, the friction too much for him as he came as well, the condom holding his release.

  After a moment or so, he finished up, pulling out as he looked at her. He then threw the condom away, glancing at her with a smile.

  “Did you like that?” he asked.

  She nodded. “Very much so. It was way better than the first time, I have to admit,” she said.

  “That’s because the first time was awkward. Neither of us were of a sound mind, and we were both not really sober. This time it was for real, and I have to agree with you as well, it was a whole lot better.

  They looked at one another, and soon Leia spoke once again.

  “Are any of your wounds opened?” she asked. They did go at it pretty hard.

  “Thankfully not, but thanks for asking,” he said.

  She nodded. “I’m glad they’re not. That would’ve been terrible,” she admitted.

  “Yeah.”

  They paused, looking at one another for a good minute or so, but then Leia spoke once again.

  “I have to ask this, and I feel weird for doing so, but it’s been bothering me,” she stated.

  He looked at her, moving closer as he gave her a warm smile. “What’s up?”

  They stared at one another for a moment or so, with Leia trying her best to figure how to articulate her thoughts. Finally, she sighed and said what she needed to say.

  “Are you going to leave me again? Because I’m afraid that something might come up, some other bad thing,” she said.

  He looked at her, but he shook his head.

  “Not anymore. I left that life, because I realized that the perfect person for me is right here. You waited for me when I was gone, and you were there for me when things were bad. I love you for that, and I don’t want to leave you ever again,” he admitted.

  She looked at him, nodding in agreement.

  “Same here. I love you Jude.”

  “I love you too Leia.”

  The two of them kissed each other once again in a tender and passionate
manner before they fell back into the bed, holding each other in their arms. It was amazing to realize this, because she knew for sure that they would be together forever. That’s what happened, and she was excited about that.

  Jude now had a normal job working on bikes, even though some did look at him with disgust. They moved in together and Jude helped Leia while she was in school. They grew closer to one another, and soon their love overflowed in ways neither of them had experienced before. Leia was happy she had found her bad boy, and it proved to her immediately that sometimes the right person for you can be right in front of your face.

  *** THE END ***

  A Boss’s Forbidden Temptation

  By: Stephanie Hunt

  It was a dreary, Friday night in the city. Caroline Williams, who was a twenty-two-year-old black woman who was originally from out of town, was staying in that evening. She didn’t really feel like going out with her friends, and wanted just a quiet evening alone to read, take a bath, and watch TV. She had had a hard week at work. Her boss was firing some of the staff members at the cleaning agency that she worked for, and she had just barely escaped losing her job. She wondered how much longer she would have a job for. At least she didn’t mind her work. As a maid, she had always liked cleaning. There was something peaceful about tidying up a mess, rendering a messy room into a clean one, that was tranquil and soothing. Needless to say, she kept her own apartment in very clean order. Everything was spick and span.

  She was a bit nervous about a new client that she would be working for in the coming week. His name was Liam Telson, and he was a very rich man. He seemed pretty cold from what Caroline had gathered in his press conferences. His reputation was that he was a very ruthless businessman, and was quite unkind to people who were “below him” on the social ladder. She was afraid that he was going to be mean to her. Her job would be to come over to his penthouse condo and clean the place twice a week. She just hoped that he wasn’t there in the evenings when she was scheduled to clean.

  Caroline leaned back in her comfortable couch and changed the channel until she got to the news. Low and behold, there was Liam, talking about what is happening right now with the ownership of Telson Financial, the investment firm that his parents owned and that was going to be passed down to him. She listened attentively.

  “I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to inherit the shares of Telson Financial. I have grown up watching this business and I have already met many of the key players in the industry. I pledge that nothing big will change once I come into the game. I will be the owner, yes, but the employees will remain. I do not have a plan to cut the labour force at this time. All other questions can be directed to my secretary, Rose Dawson.”

  Then Liam turned and walked away from the cameras and microphones and into a tall building, his legal and business entourage following him. Caroline couldn’t help but notice that Liam was a very handsome man. He was tall, with medium-length blonde hair, and piercing blue eyes. It also looked like he worked out. On the other hand, his demeanor was rather off-putting. He seemed like a spoiled and privileged white boy. She couldn’t tell a whole lot from that one, short interview, but it seemed as though he never really had to work for anything in his whole life. It seemed as though things had just been handed to him. Caroline, on the other hand, had always been a hard worker. She did well in high school, but not well enough to earn a scholarship to a college. Because she didn’t have any money (and didn’t want to go into debt), she decided to become a maid instead. She didn’t feel guilty for being “low-class”, because she worked hard. She was good at what she did. Her mother, Patricia, always supported her and was very loving and helpful. Her father had died of cancer when she was a young child. She didn’t really have any memories of him, but Patricia always told her that he had loved her deeply and was always there for her and the family. She wished she could have known him. She told herself that she was not going to get mixed up in Liam’s life. He was just too cocky and rude. At the same time, she did wonder if she could make him change. Perhaps if she got to know him, she could bring out a sweet side in him.

  Caroline decided to call up her Mom and get her advice. She was always such a wonderfully understanding and smart lady. She called her up on her cell phone. After a few rings, Patricia picked up.

  “Hey Love,” she said.

  “Hi Mom! How are things going?” said Caroline.

  “Oh, can’t complain. Things have been pretty good with me. I won at Bingo today, and the prize was $50! Can you believe it? I am going to be buying my friends lunch tomorrow.”

  “That’s wonderful to hear, Mom. I have been assigned to clean Liam Telson’s penthouse condo this coming week. I am a little nervous that I might bump into him. I don’t know what I’d have to say.”

  “Just be yourself, honey,” said Patricia.

  “I know Mom, but it’s hard when we are so different. He is, well, about to inherit billions and I am just a maid. I don’t know if I am the right woman for the job.”

  “You will do wonderfully,” said Patricia.

  They chatted about various topics for a few more minutes. Caroline wanted to know how her younger sister, Alicia, was doing. She had just turned eighteen and was about to graduate high school. She had a new boyfriend, Mike, who had been going out with her for about six months. He was on the lacrosse team and drove a mustang. They were both excited because the prom was coming up and they would be going together. Caroline was quite pleased to hear that Alicia was doing well. She loved her sister and wanted nothing but the best for her, but they didn’t talk as much as they probably should have. Caroline was just so busy with work and her social life. There didn’t seem to be time for much more. She resolved to give Alicia at least one phone call a week going forward. Maybe she would even stop by and see her on her prom night. That would be fun, she thought.

  Caroline was scheduled to clean Liam’s place on Tuesday and Thursday. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, she had other houses to clean. Monday passed relatively quickly, and when Tuesday rolled around she was positively nervous to enter Liam’s place. When she approached the elevator and took it up to the twenty-second floor, she was amazed at how classy his place was. The elevator doors opened right into the living room, which had several leather couches, a big-screen TV, and a pool table. The suite also had three bathrooms and four bedrooms. She realized that it would take her a few hours to clean the whole place. So she got started right away.

  Two hours into her cleaning, the elevator door opened and Liam entered. He looked tired from a busy day of working. He also had his golf clubs with him, so it looked as though he had been busy playing. He set his clubs aside and plopped down on the leather couch. He looked over and saw Caroline there but didn’t pay her much attention at first.

  “Boy am I tired,” he said, almost as if to himself.

  “Busy day at the office?” asked Caroline.

  “Well, no. I don’t go into the office most weeks. I’ve been playing golf all day and the club was serving the most dreadful martinis.”

  Caroline chuckled to herself. She couldn’t believe what a spoiled brat he was coming across as.

  “I haven’t had a martini in years,” said Caroline.

  “You poor thing,” said Liam. “How do you manage?”

  “Well, I am mostly busy with my job as a maid. The spare time that I do have I spend with friends and family.”

  There was a few moments’ pause. Liam sized up Caroline and was oddly struck by how beautiful she looked. He had always had a thing for black women but had never dated one before. He wondered, secretly, if she could be the first. However, she was only a maid. She was so far below him in the social ladder. His parents had raised him to go after rich, white women only. He could imagine their disapproval already if he brought home a black maid. They probably would even reconsider their plans to leave him the billion-dollar company. So Liam resolved not to act on his feelings right away. He decided he would just play it cool and see
how things went.

  “So, how long have you been a maid for?” he asked.

  “Since high school. So it’s been about four years now.”

  “Do you like it?”

  “Well, at firsts it was a lot of work. It took me a while to get used to it, but I’ve gotten much better over the years and I actually do enjoy it now.”

  Caroline felt a bit embarrassed telling Liam about how she felt regarding being a maid. She could just tell that he was the type that never talked to maids. Unless… Unless he was attracted to her. Could it be? He looked kind of flushed and pale. Then her dreams were shattered with what he said next.

  “You know, I’d prefer it if you didn’t talk as you cleaned. I have a lot on my mind and I don’t usually converse with my maids.”

  “Oh, I’m sorry. I’ll just get back to cleaning.”

  The rest of the hour went by rather awkwardly as she finished cleaning up. She didn’t even say goodbye to him as she exited the condo with her cleaning equipment and left the building. She got on the subway and took it all the way back to her dingy apartment, which was a forty-five-minute commute away. She had never felt so embarrassed in her whole life.

  When Thursday came and it was time to return to Liam’s condo, she resolved not to make any eye contact or to start any conversation. She decided she was just going to get on with her chores and not trouble him at all. He was clearly not the type that would ever be interested in dating a maid.

  When she arrived at his door at seven o’clock in the evening, he was there again with several of his friends. They were all getting drunk and chatting. They were talking about the stock market. His friends were complaining that they were losing a lot of money with the most recent recession. Liam was telling them that they needed to ride it out, and if possible, buy some more shares as prices were low.

  “You are one lucky bastard,” said one of his friends, a short, stocky guy who looked like he lifted weights. “If I had your money I wouldn’t even be worried about losing a few hundred million in the market.”
