Chapter 12 Grayson 55 vouchers Tiffany rested her head on my shoulder, looking down at her phone. We had barely taken off and she had already taken so many pictures of us. Her hair was perfectly styled, her short skirt showed off her thighs and her lips looked so glossy like they were begging for mine. She looked stunning. She looked up and leaned in for a kiss with her legs crossed and I ran my hand up her thigh just to feel how smooth her skin was. I kissed her back like I meant it and in full view of the camera she had sneakily set on the table. But my mind wasn't there. It was still at Harper's place, stuck on the look of surprise on her face when she opened the door and saw me standing there. Even when she initially looked guarded, I saw right through it all. She still wanted me. I could feel it in the way she tried to keep her distance but clung to me when I held her close, the way she intertwined her fingers with mine despite the ring on my finger. Her body told me what her mouth couldn't and fuck, it fed something in me. She still felt something for me and maybe that was why I held her a little longer than I should have. And maybe that's why I said the things I did. I knew she would hold on to them. I liked knowing I could still get to her. "Babe, what are you thinking about?" Tiffany asked, her voice sweet and snapping me back to reality. I turned to her with a soft smile and tucked her hair behind her ear. "I was just thinking about how lucky I am to have you." Her eyes lit up like I had given her a diamond. I wrapped my arm tighter around her and kissed her forehead, like I had been in the moment with her all along. She ran her perfectly manicured fingers in my hair, smashing her lips on mine again, but pulled away to say something. I expected it to be about that moment, like I could lean back and let her take the lead, but it was far from it. "So....about Maddox and Harper." She twisted her face in disgust as soon as she said, but I had to hide my genuine reaction, just slightly pulling away from her. "What about them?" I asked, reaching for the champagne glass on the table. My grip on it tightened so hard that I was actually seconds away from cracking the damn thing. The images of the two of them in bed together flashed in my mind. Her legs wrapped around his waist, unable to catch her breath while she moaned his name in pleasure and he was deep inside of her. 7:22 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 12 "I spoke to my brother to stay away from her," Tiffany said. "Let me guess, he listened to you?" I asked with sarcasm. 77 55 vouchers "You know how he is, but I won't let her have her way. If she thinks she's going to get what she wants out of this, I'm not going to let that happen." There was a mischievous smirk on her lips that grabbed my attention and I put down the glass so I could get closer to her face. "It sounds like you're up to something." She proudly nodded. "Kate just needs to step up her game. I've always wanted my best friend to end up with my brother. He's still messing around with other girls but I can take care of that." Even though Tiffany wanted Maddox to end up with Kate, it made no difference to me who would be the lucky girl in the end as long as it wasn't Harper. "That sounds like a perfect plan," I said. "Of course it is." She ran her hand down my chest. "When my brother comes back two weeks from now, I'll get straight to work. It's a good thing he'll be gone for a while so that bitch doesn't get her claws in him." "Hey, don't talk about Harper like that." My voice sounded a little sharp. "Ugh!" She pushed me away. "You just had to ruin the moment by defending that bitch." "One more word like that out of your mouth and I'll turn this jet around." She parted her lips, but nothing came out. Instead, she crossed her arms and faced the other side. I even thought that was the perfect moment to tell her that Harper wasn't going anywhere and it would be like the old days, but maybe it was too soon. "I can't believe you still want to talk about her that way after what she did to me. You saw her slap me." "We already talked about this. You're the one who crossed the line." She faced me again with a sigh of irritation. "It almost sounds like you're choosing her over me." I scoffed, pulling her closer by the waist. "Don't be ridiculous. Remember what I told you right before the wedding began and you threatened to cancel it if Harper didn't leave? I'll say it again. Her presence in my life is nothing more than the friend she's always been and she knows it. That's why I show her over and over again that I only have eyes for you." I then kissed the back of her hand, looking right into her eyes. "Don't tell me you're that intimidated by her?" I raised an eyebrow. She rolled her eyes. "Of course not. I just don't like how everyone was talking about her like she's now the center of the universe." 7:22 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 12 "Then let them talk. It makes no difference to me because you're the center of my universe." She giggled, burying her face in my chest after gently hitting it. "I love you." 77 55 vouchers "I love you too. Don't ever forget that no matter how many times you see me talking to Harper. She'll never be anything close to what you are to me, Mrs Ford." She kissed me again with her arms wrapped around my neck and sat in my lap. "I can't wait to get to our honeymoon destination," she said after pulling away. "I really want to see those landscapes." "And I can't wait to see you in another piece of lingerie." She bit her lip. "You're in for a pleasant surprise." I shut out anything to do with Harper and Maddox, focusing on my beautiful wife in my lap. I knew that when I would return from my honeymoon, Harper would be waiting for me. The ocean breeze was perfect that morning but not more than Tiffany. She was in a stunning white wrap dress with sunglasses over her eyes and her legs stretched out lazily on the lounge chair beside me. "I can't believe it's already been two weeks," she said. "If only we could stay longer." "We can't do that." I firmly shook my head. "I have so much pending work and so do you." While that was mostly true, I also wanted to get back in town before Maddox. "Any word from your brother about when he's going back home?" I asked. "We haven't spoken much lately, but I'm guessing he might stay longer. There was another complication." I looked to the side and smiled a little. That was perfect. I didn't want him near Harper. "You know what surprises me? You never say much about your brother taking over your father's multi-billion dollar company." "What's there to say?" She chuckled bitterly. "Not even the plan mom and I came up with made things work in my favor. Good thing I have my own plans. I only need to gain one particular investor's approval. When that happens, even my dad's company will look like nothing in my eyes." Tiffany liked to be competitive at times when it came to Maddox, even though he paid no attention to it. He didn't need to. He had everything. As she went on to explain all the huge plans she had in her head about her business, a young waitress approached with our food. She placed everything where it should have been but when handing Tiffany her juice, a droplet landed on the lounge chair she was on and she gasped dramatically. 7:22 Tue, Sep 16 Chapter 12 "What the fuck is your problem?" she snapped at the waitress. "Please forgive me ma'am." The waitress apologetically brought her hands together. 77 55 vouchers. "Are you fucking blind? You could have ruined my dress! Don't you know that it costs ten times more than what you get paid here?" "That's enough." I stepped in, shaking my head with disapproval. "No. This servant needs to do her job well. It seems that management just hires anyone here. Why are you still in my face? Get out of here!" I watched as the waitress made her way back inside, her head low and eyes wide with embarrassment. The breeze wasn't so nice anymore as I turned to look at Tiffany. "What?" She took off her glasses. "You didn't have to treat her like that." "I don't have time to waste on people who don't know how to do their job." She reached for her juice and sipped on it with ease. This was the side of her I never liked and no matter what I said, things never changed. I didn't feel like being beside her anymore so I made my way to our suite, but she immediately followed me, calling my name quietly so she wouldn't attract attention. It was only when I made it to the suite that I stopped walking. She came behind me and held onto my wrist. "Babe, please don't be mad at me." Her voice was now sweet. "This is our last day here before we return home and I don't want it to end on a bad note." I sighed. "I've lost count of how many times you've done things like this." She rolled her eyes. "It's not my fault that those around me can't live up to a certain standard." "And there you go again." I was about to walk away from her again when she grabbed the sides of my face to kiss me. I was so mad about the incident with the waitress that I didn't even touch her right away, but that didn't stop her from lowering her hand into my shorts to grab my cock. I gasped against her lips, already aware of what she was trying to do. I didn't even get to kiss her much because she got down on her knees, her beautiful and seductive eyes. looking up at me while she pulled my shorts down. She knew just what to do to change my mood. 7:22 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 12 After not picking up my calls, I left Harper several messages but not once did she reply. I wanted her to know that I was back in town. 77 55 vouchers For someone I'd been keeping in touch with during the time I was away, she was suddenly unresponsive, making me wonder what was going on with her. I needed to speak to Harper and feed something inside of me again. Tiffany and I made it home right around sunset and she was too focused on bragging to her friends about our honeymoon, which was about to work to my advantage. I only whispered to her that I needed to go to the office and she nodded in understanding and looked away to continue with her phone call. She didn't even ask how long I would take. And just like that, I got into the car and drove straight to Harper's place. After not picking up my calls and replying to my texts, I wanted to surprise her by showing up at her doorstep and watch her try so hard not to jump on me. Just as I turned at the corner so I could get to her place, I stepped on the brakes and tightened the grip on the steering wheel, my breath instantly heavy at the sight of Maddox's Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in her driveway. 色 Title: A Boyfriend on Loan, A Real Love on Way Author: CrushReels Genre: Romance, Modern Status: ongoing In "A Boyfriend on Loan, A Real Love on Way" by CrushReels, Felix Lloyd finds himself in a predicament as he seeks to pacify his family's marriage expectations by renting a girlfriend for the holiday season.
