ETHAN CARTER
"What did she say?" I asked dismissing the manager of Evon Restaurant who was walking towards me with a wave of my hand.
I gripped the phone in my ear waiting for my secretary to say something useful,
"I hung up before she said anything, Sir",Nina said and I rubbed my forehead in annoyance.
"Fine"
"And Sir-",Nina cut in too quickly,"my work schedule says my working hours are from 8am to 5pm. It's nine pm, Sir"
"Nina, I pay you way too much for being my assistant so if I call at nine pm or at midnight, you of all people shouldn't be hesitant to do what I want"
I hung up the phone too quickly before she would say anything. It was no secret that I wanted to hear what the self entitled Aliya Maria Fernanda Torres said.
Like a gentleman, I had allowed given her three weeks to be free. Three weeks to take care of her mother and now, I was ready to claim my pound of flesh.
She wanted to repay him. She had insisted that she didn't want to be indebted to me and what better way than this?
It was a stupid idea, a rather shallow idea even from me but why did I feel like I needed to put her in her place?
Two things, I had learnt from her within the few days we had been acquainted was that a) she had an ego bigger than the size of Texas and b) she was a fire, more so a challenge that I needed to conquer.
My eyes flung across the empty well decorated room. I had booked the whole restaurant for a special evening with Crystal.
The chef, Sang, prepared some of Crystal's favorite dishes like fried catfish with green mango salad, stir fried pumpkin, some baja chicken, grilled chicken breast masada and not forgetting spicy buffalo wings.
The food was actually quite alot and I was a hundred percent sure that Crystal couldn't manage to eat all of it.
I wanted everything to be perfect, Crystal just like her name was a jewel and in the last couple of months let's just say I hadn't been the best boyfriend.
"Sir, everything is ready",the manager said and I glanced at the flowers, the petals on the ground and the band playing a rather classical note of one of Elle Goulding's song.
"Thanks. I'll take it from here", I said giving him a good old pat in the back as he exited the main room together with the caterers.
Evon Restaurant was Crystal's favorite place. I did hear her complain that it was hard to get a reservation here and I couldn't understand why.
I was standing in the middle of the room, taking in the decadent elements added to the space. Some of the elements were a converted nightclub, including bespoke stained glass windows, traditional Japanese joinery and luxurious beaded curtains that cast dramatic shadows on the dining tables.
I stared at my Rolex watch knowing that at any moment, Crystal would walk right in. I picked a single rose from the huge bouquet I had bought for her, feeling it between my fingers.
Five, ten and now twenty minutes, I was still waiting and to be honest, patience had never been my strongest suit.
I paced across the room wondering if all this had been for nothing. I did send her the address, didn't I?
Or should I have picked her up myself?
I was in the middle of these conflicting thoughts when I heard sharp steps click against the tile floor.
Crystal.
I peered at the doorway, the first thing catching my eye being her exposed right thigh.
She was stunning, dressed in a red off shoulder dress with a slit cutting through her right leg until I could almost see her undies.
God, and all that was for me?I was one lucky bastard.
"Ethan",she cried her eyes scanning the room, her hand went to cover her mouth as she let out a gasp.
"What's all this?" She gasped and I walked towards her handing her the rose.
"I believe I promised a romantic dinner", I smirked watching her take the rose to her nose smelling it's scent.
She was beautiful, her lips were so red that it drove me with wild desire on how they would feel against mine. I easily snaked my hand around her waist giving her a kids before we went to dine at the candle lit table.
"You really outdid yourself, this time. I didn't expect this",she said in awe cutting through the food on her plate.
"Do you like it?"
"Like it? Baby I love it"
"Good. Because I really wanted to make it up to you", I said honestly.
Few minutes after we had dined and wined, we stayed silence for a couple of minutes enjoying the band perform.
"They are beautiful", Crystal commented, her eyes stark still on the band.
I wasn't that much into classical music but I also had to admit that the guy playing the violin was talented.
"Well not as beautiful as you", I kissed her cheek mischievously.
She chuckled, turning to me. We were seated on the floor with my jacket sprawled across the ground for as to sit at.
"You know what I mean but I missed this. I missed us, together like this",she placed her head on my shoulder and I was quick to hung my arm on her shoulders.
"Then let's make the most of it. Tell me more about your day. How it was"
"Well I went shopping with Shreya, had a meeting with dad about our villa in Fiji and guess what?"
"What?"
"Luke is back"
Luke Perez, Crystal's brother wasn't exactly my biggest fan. The guy hated me.
"That's-that's nice to hear", I lied.
"I know you don't like him and neither does he like you",she said flatly parting from me.
She turned to me, her blue eyes meeting mine.
"Can you try talking this time around? Get to know each other for my sake?"
"Of course. I can never say no to you, can I?" I chuckled leaning in for a kiss.
She immediately gave me access to all the corners of her mouth and I kissed her with need feeling my blood spike with desire.
I could already feel myself harden and if we didn't get out of here in the next ten minutes, then I would absolutely have sex with Crystal Perez on the floor of Evon Restaurant in front of a merry band of singers.
"I-I think it's time we headed to the hotel", I said breathlessly and she nodded meekly.
X
I run my fingers on her lips as she slowly and gracefully knelt infront of me.
Once we had gotten to the hotel, I had made sure to get rid of the red dress that clung to her body like a second skin. And beneath that fancy little dress lay matching black lace panties and a strapless bra.
No doubt something Crystal bought in the Victoria's secret store. And damn did it turn me on.
I felt her hands undo my pants and my blood spiked more flowing down south. Before I knew it, she already had my length inside her hot mouth and I shuddered in delight.
Her hands gripped it softly, jerking me off until I could no longer stand straight. She sucked, she licked, she teased until I felt my head turn into mush.
With no shame, I grabbed the back of her head backing my hips against her mouth until I reached my peak.
I heard her gag underneath me, I heard her moan with pleasure and that encouraged me to continue.
"On the bed", I said huskily getting rid of my clothes.
"Fours", I added watching her get on the bed.
By the time I had the last piece of cloth from my body, Crystal was already on the bed naked and on all fours. Her delicate folds gleaned against the moon light and I smirked.
She was already wet. Already wet for me.
Within no time, I was on top of her, my chest leaning against her back. I pushed her hair from her neck, kissing her sweet skin and hearing her moan my name.
I bit her earlobe, my lips kissing her shoulders, travelling down the line of her back all the while my hard length rubbed against her wet center.
My hands skimmed her body, her navel to those small globes I loved squeezing.
"Ah-Oh fuck, Ethan",she moaned and yet I hadn't even begun torturing her.
I pulled away from her, my fingers teasing her center until she had no choice but to rest her head on the pillow for support.
Swiftly, I pushed one finger inside her replacing it with another the instant she encouraged it.
Crystal liked it rough and I was a bit of a rough man myself. I pushed my fingers inside her quickly the only sounds flying across the room being of her moaning my name and the sloppy sounds of my fingers movings against her.
"You like that?" I asked knowing very well what she would say.
"Y...yes",she hissed as I felt her walls clench around my fingers.
"What about this?"I asked curling up my fingers inside her.
"Ah-ahhh"
"Is that a no?"
"Don't...stop",she stressed.
I withdrew my fingers from her, kneeling behind her as I stared at her open her legs wide. Slowly at first, I push the head in, pushing the rest in as I felt her let me in.
My chest collided with her back, as I reached for her breasts. From there on, I bucked my hips faster and rougher against her all the while squeezing her breasts until I had my second release.
The curtains skidded into the room as the morning breeze of fresh earth aired in the room. The morning light blinded me at first, before I turned to the side of the bed.
Crystal had her arms tangled on my torso and I slowly lifted her hands one by one being careful not to wake up.
I picked my phone from the nightstand switching it on to see that it was already seven am in the morning.
I had a shower, wore my clothes before I left a note by the nightstand telling Crystal that work came up.
On my way out, I instructed room service to serve Crystal her breakfast the minute she woke up.
I drove back home remembering that I had a meeting at nine sharp with Aliya Torres on the matter about the job.
I arrived home an hour later, having time to change into another set of clothing before the woman came.
On my way here, I had called Jai instructing him to go to any tailor shop nearby and ask for a medium sized grey maids' uniform. He had asked a lot of questions, all of which I ignored by hanging up the phone.
I was in the kitchen making myself a protein shake when the ding dong bell grabbed my attention.
She was here.
I walked towards the door, not really sure why I was so eager to see her.
I mean any man who didn't know her well would be glad to see her. She was a beauty. Though a stunning beauty with an awful personality.
I turned the knob opening the door.
"Ethan!"
"Mom?W-what are you doing here?" I asked dumbfounded as she waltzed right into my house.
Of all the days Lisa Carter had to be in my house, it had to be this one?
I closed the door, watching my mother walk straight into my living room, dump her Chanel bag on the couch before she went ahead to the kitchen.
I thought by changing the locks of my house, she would get the message that I didn't want her here and now here she was!
I followed her to the kitchen watching her assess my shelves like a health inspector inspecting a roach infested restaurant.
"Don't give me that look, Ethan. Am your mother, if you don't come to me then I'll come to you",she cooed, her eyes widening with warning.
"Mom, seriously. I can't do this right now. Am expecting someone at the moment", I said.
"Someone more important than your mother? You should be happy I came to visit you. Ethan, you look skinny. Have you been eating well?"
I rolled my eyes. At the age of twenty seven, my mother still treated me like a kid. She was still trying to control my life.
"Mom we talked on the phone just yesterday", I clarified.
I watched her take my protein shake draining it all in the kitchen sink as she said that it was an unhealthy drink.
The ding dong sound of the bell resonated again.
"Well I guess your important guest is here", mom snorted and I walked towards the main door.
I opened the door, coming face to face with the same emerald green eyes of Aliya Torres.
I stretched out my hand welcoming her in and with a scoff she walked right in as if merely being here was draining her life force.
"Am here, let's get this over with!" She barked and before I could say another word my uninvited mother spoke out,
"Get what over with? Ethan, who is she? Oh God, don't tell me. Are you cheating on Crystal?"
