Mature content ahead
Today was the day before the promotion announcement and currently, Veronica was at work at her desk while it was in the middle afternoon. She was a little upset. Ok, she was angry, there were whispers/ rumours that the presentation with the client went extremely well. And it didn't make Veronica feel any better that Felix kept rubbing it in her face.
Earlier today while she was working, Felix came up to her having a smug look on his face. He then went on to tell how much the client loved his work and how all the men gave him praises and were overall having a good time. In addition, he talked about how no one even thought to mention her and that's how irrelevant she was. Felix knew that the presentation was Veronica's he wasn't going to admit it but the girl had talent which is one of the reasons he doesn't like her.
When he was told he was going to be presenting that project instead of Veronica he swear he could have done a backflip into a split right then and there. He was elated when everyone kept praising him he did not even have a speck of guilt that the presentation wasn't his, to begin with, he was just happy that he was finally being noticed and that he could possibly win the promotion for the assistants.
Once he had left, that immediately put Veronica in a sour mood. When she had told Imani what happened during lunch Imani was pissed for her she was willing to go to Felix and ring him up by his neck but decided not to when Veronica had finally managed to convince her not to.
Now she was just at work just wanting the hours to go by. She frowned at the empty spot on her desk. Her white tulips that Ahmad would send her daily even when she had blocked him were not there.
She decided to take a risk and call his work. She was scared she had never done anything like that before and hoped she wouldn't get in trouble.
She picked up the telephone letting it ring. She heard the phone buzz three times before hearing a female's voice.
"Ahmad Tates phone, this is his assistant who am I speaking with." She heard the woman's professional voice. She was laughing in her head knowing damn well that's not how the woman normally talks.
"This is Veronica Calhoun from Atlantic Advertisement. Would it possible to speak to Mr Tate please." She said in her own professional voice.
"Not a problem just bare with me one moment and I'll send you through." She heard the click of the phone then heard music signifying that she was being transferred to his phone.
"Ahmad Tate." She shuddered at the sound of his voice the way he spoke just sounded so seductive unintentionally.
"Good afternoon Mr Tate."
She heard his rich chuckle before hearing him clear his throat.
"Miss Calhoun, to what do I owe this pleasure of a call?
"Well." She started tapping her pen on her desk. "I'm looking at an empty spot on my desk and it made me realise something. She paused for dramatic effect "The something was the fact that my white tulips are not placed on that empty spot. Care to explain sir."
She heard him do a slight grunt in frustration. "I'm sorry I had an issue with the flower company which resulted in me telling them to fuck off don't worry I will fill that empty spot as soon as I can."
"I was only kidding Ahmad, it's fine I shouldn't even be on this call with you I'm practically terrified if my boss catches me." She said in a playful way while also being dead serious.
"It's ok Veronica, why didn't you call my direct phone?"
"They can track phone calls on where you have called to. So if I do get caught I can say I was calling for a different client in your company or just make up something that won't get me in trouble."
"Oh, so you planned ahead."
She could practically hear the smirk in his tone.
"Am I still picking you up after work? You have no plans with Imani?" They were times at work she would text him saying he can pick her up only to change her mind at the last second texting him again saying she was going to hang out with Imani.
She covered her laugh with her hand which made it come out muffled through the phone but she would rather take that than have her boss come yell at her as he was only behind her in his office.
"I'll see you later Mr Tate."
"Take care, Miss Calhoun."
As soon as she hung up the phone she heard a beep before hearing her boss's voice.
"Miss Calhoun can you make your way to my office."
Veronica froze. There was no way he knew already she panicked. She palmed her forehead how could she be so stupid?
She entered her boss's office seeing him typing away on his computer he stopped when he saw her and leaned back on his chair.
"Miss Calhoun, you will be pleased to know that the meeting with our client went well. You will be proud to know that Mr Zhao presented yours and his pieces together, you guys would make a lovely team, very good team effort from the both of you."
"Which brings me to my next topic, I would like for you and Mr Zhao to spend an additional hour overtime to make up a quick collage for a different colour clothing brand that would please the public and be good for the company.
On one hand, she was happy that he knew nothing about the phone call and on the other hand, she wanted to give her boss the dirtiest glare. He had absolutely got her fucked up. Team effort?!! TEAM!! She wrote and researched all that was needed only for it to be taken from her and given to a useless critter like Mr Zhao. There was no way of convincing her to do it.
"Umm with all due respect sir I would have to pass I have other files waiting for me that I need to get done before tomorrow."
Oh come on Veronica, if you do this you would not only get a bonus on your cheque but It could have you recognised and gain points for tomorrow's announcement for the promotion."
Now that was like a pot of gold to Veronica, fuck the extra bonus, the promotion was what had her sold and she took it.
She nodded her head and told her boss that she would gladly accept at least she was actually going to get help with this.
...
Wrong, Veronica couldn't have been any more wrong than what she had previously stated. It was now getting to around 10:30 and she had finished her work at a record time even though she was pissed as is.
She had previously watched as her boss told her and Felix that they would need to stay the extra hour to complete the work. She saw the disappointment on Felix's face and how much he did not want to spend the hour at work. She noticed how his mood didn't even change when her boss mentioned the bonus and promotion to him the same way he did to her.
She thought that was good as her boss would be able to see who deserves it more and why she should be the one announced to get the job.
She couldn't believe her eyes when Felix only stayed for 10 minutes before leaving, leaving her to do the work all by herself. She was going to make a note of this and immediately tell Mr Ross before the big announcement which would surely help her win the promotion.
She was in her boss's office now, she was placing the portrait of her collage on the easel so it would be the first thing her boss noticed.
"Great view." She jumped and screamed at the sound of the deep voice turning around and sighed at the sight of who the voice belonged to. Attempting to calm her breathing down she placed her heart on her chest.
"You fucking asshole. Don't do that, what are you even doing here."
"I brought these." He smirked as he eyed her behind which he considered to be the 'great view'
She looked at what he lifted to her view and immediately calmed down and smiled.
"Ahmad, I was only joking about the flowers I can't believe you actually brought them here." She said taking the white tulips from him and sniffing the flowers.
"Hey, when I read your text saying you had to do an extra hour, I took it as an opportunity to bring you the flowers so you could have them at your desk."
"Which leads me to a question, where do you put the flowers that I send to you."
" What you think I put them in the trash? I take it home and decorate it in my living room or bedroom. Then again I can't fault you when I'm mostly at your house rather than you being at mine or actually staying at each other's houses." She laughed
Ahmad laughed with her before walking over to her. He placed a loosened braid behind her ear then taking the flowers from her placing them on the desk behind her.
"You look beautiful Ronnie." He leaned down whispering in her ear.
She giggled placing her hands on his chest. "You have never called me Ronnie before what made you say it now."
" I figured Ronnie is what your close friends and family call you and with me now being your man I can call you just that." He gripped her waist pulling her close.
She hummed at his words. "You are my man aren't you? I almost forgot about that." She teased making a funny face.
"Oh yeah?" He smiled at her
"Yeah." She replied back before Ahmad kissed her claiming her lips onto his.
He helped her up on the desk and went back to kissing on her neck. He stopped only for a second to lubricate his fingers with saliva as she lifted up her skirt removing off her panties so he would be able to slip his two fingers inside of her.
"Ahmad..." she whispered breathlessly. He pumped in and out of her with precision. Preparing her for him. Veronica's moans were muffled as she pressed her face into his shoulder. She grinned her body against his hand and guided his other hand to her breast. He indulged in her weakness and tweaked her nipple through her clothes causing her to gasp.
"Be quiet." He ordered her. As Ahmad began unbuttoning her white shirt making her white lacy bra show before taking out one of her breasts and putting a nipple in his mouth. His sharp command only made her spread her legs wider.
"Ahmad fuck me already!" She gasped. She couldn't take it. He pulled her lip down with his thumb. "I'll fuck you when I'm ready." He watched as Veronica tugged at his zipper pulling it down as she reached his boxers being able to free his dick Veronica whimpered trying to move her way closer to it she was beginning to become desperate.
"Such a slut." Now, this was new to her. He had never called her such degrading names but for some reason that seemed to turn her on even more. Veronica nodded. She knew she could be a slut if she wanted to just never had the right person to act that way with. She wanted to be that for him right now. But he was playing very petulant games by teasing her it was probably his way of revenge for when she didn't let him control him when she was sucking his dick!
"Ahmad-OH!" She gasped as he slowly began to push into her. His girth expanded her like she had never been before. She pressed her hands against his chest to resist a little but he gripped her wrists in his hands and pulled her forward to look into his eyes. "Fucking hell...." He growled pushing deeper. "Ahmad! Shit!" She hissed tugging her wrists to try and free them.
Once he finally filled her to the hilt he didn't move. Veronica thought it was his way of being a gentleman but she knew that wasn't the case when she remembered who exactly Ahmad Tate was.
"I need to relax ...I'm really tempted to ruining you." Veronica shivered at that and wrapped her legs tighter against him. "I want you to ruin me, baby." She whispered seductively against his ear. Ahmad growled throwing his head back. He had to not let her words get in his head so he began to move in and out of her slowly and steadily. Veronica and his eyes locked in the passion of it all.
She could hear the sounds of their sexes colliding. Veronica felt her eyes starting to roll as she tried her best to keep the noise to a minimum. But how could she? She had never ever had a man fuck her like this and this was probably her and Ahmad's third time having sex and it always felt good each and every time it was like he was getting bigger and tried new things with her each time.
Ahmad had one hand hooked under her right leg and the other around her waist to lift her lower body up into his thrusts. "I want this. All day. All the time. When I ask for it. No more playing around Veronica no more running and hiding. I was serious about fucking you until your legs break if you ever try pull that shit with me again" He gritted pumping into her harder
"Yes." Veronica choked on a cry. She would agree to just about anything right now and this wasn't the first time she had felt like that. He moved his hips in a sensual rolling motion before switching it up to sharp pumps and then to swivels. Veronica was freaking out. He was hitting spots in her she didn't know existed. "Mad! Ahmad! Oh my God. Mad!" She panted.
"Shh. Take it" He gripped her chin. Veronica turned to take his thumb in her mouth with a wicked lustful gaze on him. If he was gonna call her a slut she should at least continue to act like one. Ahmad cursed under his breath and kissed her deeply.
He cupped her rear and gave her sharp thrusts making Veronica's hold tighten on to him. She was going to burst faster than she ever had and they just started! He caught Veronica off guard when he did his signature move of wrapping his hand around neck her squeezing her tight. She was wondering when he was going to do that. She absolutely loved when he would give her limited access to oxygen.
She looked up at him as she panted and wiped her sweat. The view of the pulchritudinous outside through the office window still enchanted her but nothing else could distract her from this gigantic man and his gigantic body part nestled inside of her. Her body was still trying to accommodate to his size clenching and unclenching. She had sworn he had gotten bigger he was hitting her In places she had never thought it was possible to touch.
Ahmad closed his eyes and grunted trying to stay in control before he opened them and squeezed her hips."Go on Veronica. Fuck me back." He instructed. Veronica loved when he would show his dominance when they were having sex it brought out a different side to her.
She threw her head back moaning he was so thick she didn't know if she could do it well as it was beginning to become a distraction. She began to fuck him back thrusting her hips in an upward motion she could feel her legs beginning to get very shaky from the pleasure.
She could barely concentrate continuing the forward and backward motion on his shaft. He grabbed her breasts in front of him playing with her nipples. Veronica cried out throwing her head back she loved his touches on her body she believed she could come from that alone hell he made her cum from his fingers before.
Ahmad's hands were always doing something. And his grunts of pleasure were driving her crazy. She had now realised that she loved men's noises of pleasure due to sleeping with him multiple times. Both her exes never did such things they claimed it wasn't manly and made them sound like pussies. She shook her head mentally at how stupid they sounded.
Ahmad's Moans were always seductive, rough and dominating practically every sweet thing in the world, his moans contained. He watched as her hips were moving like a professional. He watched her face contort into pleasure as she began whimpering at how deep he was.
Veronica watched the expressions on his face. She removed the tie that was holding up his dreads and let them fall down his face making him look even more sexier. He had this passion in his eyes which was making him look even more sexy as he was fucking her.
She was impressed she still had the energy to fuck him back, she thought by now her legs would stop working. And what made it even funnier was that she wasn't even doing it solely for at all him. She was pleasing herself and that made it more arousing for Ahmad to watch as if he knew himself.
He moved his hands from her breast to her dripping wet pussy rubbing on her clit with his thumb. "A-Ahmad please please please!" She begged him as her thighs quivered. He groaned in pleasure gripping her waist snapping his hips back up into her while he wrapped his hands around her hips lifting her up off the desk and then violently pulling her up and down his shaft.
She was such an enthusiastic, determined and audible lover and she was just as tight as he imagined. He was going to be quite ashamed to admit the best sex he has ever had was now in her boss's office. First, it was the head he received in his office and now it was the sex in this office, he guessed her boss was right. She was best the assistant, as all her best work was always done in the office.
He felt her pulsing around him as she swallowed her scream. Her beautiful orgasm almost sent him spiralling into pleasure inside of her but he didn't want to be done. Not yet. Not now. He pulled out of her and sat her back down on the desk. Veronica looked narcoleptic and confused. But all was not lost when Ahmad swiftly entered his way back inside of her.
Veronica whimpered as she grabbed his arm and silenced herself with the sleeve of his shirt tucked in her mouth that gave Ahmad a confident boost watching her struggle to suppress her moans. Taking it up a notch Ahmad moved in and out of her at a new rhythm. He went slow but it was punishing in strength. He was a strong man and also a big man so him pounding into her at a control rate was very easy for him to do as he knew where to hit. He took his time with exploring her body as if it captivated him.
His large hands traced the careful lining of her stretch marks before stopping at her ass and giving a harsh squeeze and a slap to the left side. Before doing the same to her other cheek. She could feel the traces and it was sending tingles down her spine making her arch more. She couldn't tell if he was a breast or an ass man as he seemed to enjoy playing with both. He seemed to like it all but she was leaning more toward the ass side. It was a confidence boost to her that she was able to provide with both. That's what she always thanked the lord for, for being blessed with a beautiful body while she was still suffering from her harsh skin and being bullied.
"Ahmad!" She cried with actual tears in her eyes when he had hit a g-spot. She had remembered Imani mentioning sex being so good that it would make her cry during one of their FaceTimes. Veronica had never experienced sex like that so she was either jealous or had a hard time believing it as she thought her body maybe wasn't like that. Until now. The tears were pouring down her face like a fountain. His pace began to quicken with rigour. He could fill the sweat beginning to form on his forehead. They were both moving in sync Veronica's body moved in rhythm to the speed of his thrusts.
"Look at you taking my dick like a good girl. you can hardly even speak."Veronica shakily moved herself up biting her lip as the tears fell down her face and the sweat formed on her brow. "Oh s-shut up." She spoke with some sass but it was shaky and weak because of all the pleasure she was feeling.
Ahmad chuckled and ignored her as he reached around and cupped her breast without stuttering in his pace. He trailed his nose along the column of her neck inhaling the sweet smell of her skin there was never a time she didn't smell good which is why he always wanted her in space.
"Ahmad, w-what are you doing?" She questioned starting to slow down her movements "Shh. Relax." He nibbled on her jaw while placing a finger on her lips. He tightened his grip a little making Norene's pulse jump. "Trust me, Veronica, Everything is going to be ok. I just want to try something."She tried to breathe through her fear and heavy arousal. What was he planning to do with her? She involuntarily clenched her muscles making Ahmad surprise her by biting on her shoulder and releasing a throaty groan.
"You like this. Don't you? being dominated and getting called out of your name ?" He lifted her chin to look into her eyes which hung heavy with lust. "N-no." She tried saying without stuttering when clearly that failed with the way he was fucking her soul out of her."I think you do, I think you love how my dick turns you into a slut. My slut." He whispered against her ear. He began to pound into her harder than he had before continually hitting her g-spot and the desk began to shake at the intensity. "I-I um I-!" She gripped his back tightly digging her nails into his back moaning loudly. She could feel his heat radiating off his body and onto her.
"A-Ahmad I'm going to cum, I'm so close o-"
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE."
Veronica immediately snapped back into reality pushing Ahmad out of her.
"M-m-Mr Ross." She stammered trying to fix her attire.
"HOW DARE YOU ENGAGE IN SEXUAL ENCOUNTERS IN MY DEPARTMENT AND IN MY OFFICE."
"Sir-"
"QUIET."
"I suggest you tone that voice down, if you want to have a conversation you can talk to her with respect before this gets even uglier." Ahmad snapped back at her boss his attire now on. Ahmad stepped up pulling Veronica behind him.
He could feel her trembling and he instantly wished he could take away her pain. He knew he was at fault but he didn't like the way her boss was talking to her and he would be damned if he was to stand there and let him talk to her like that in his presence.
They both saw her boss's reaction to his words and watched as he tensed and looked at Ahmad with fright.
Mr Ross was a chubby white man who you could estimate to be around 5,6 so a man like Ahmad looking down on him and using that harsh tone on him frightened him but he wouldn't say that out loud.
"Miss Calhoun, you are fired." Her boss told her in a more quietened tone.
Veronica felt her heart drop. She pushes through Ahmad. Her eyes began to water.
"No sir, please, please I'll do anything. Please don't do this to me I can't lose my job. Please." Veronica begged going on her knees.
"I'm sorry Miss Calhoun but my decision is final please pack up your desk and get out before I call security." With that being said she watched as her boss walked away.
Veronica's felt her throat closing up she couldn't breathe. She felt like she was beginning to have a panic attack. She got up and tried to make her way to follow him. She watched as the elevator doors began to close "Mr Ross, please I need this job. You can reduce my pay please anything please don't take my job away. PLEASE." She tried yelling as a last resort as she watched the elevator doors finally close.
Veronica ran her hands her through hair her eyes widened as she slowly turned around looking at the office. Her chest was breathing rapidly.
Veronica pressed the elevator buzzer quickly entering pressing the ground floor.
"Veronica?" Her eyes snapped to Ahmad walking out of the office looking at her. Veronica quickly pressed the closed button rapidly. "Veronica!!" Ahmad ran towards the elevator smacking it out of anger when the door closed before he could get to her.
Veronica's eyes were bloodshot red she didn't know what to do. How did she allow this to happen she got so distracted why did she allow him to enter the office she should have stopped it before it got too much.
She began running towards the bus stop her breathing slowing down as if she was going to faint.
"VERONICA." She stopped turning around seeing Ahmad standing some distances away.
"LEAVE ME ALONE AHMAD." She screamed before breaking into sobs.
Ahmad tried grabbing her only for her to push him back off. "DON'T TOUCH ME. I knew it, I knew I should have stopped this."
"Stopped what."
"THIS, this entire thing, Ahmad if I had never encouraged this I would still have my job." She bursted out into more tears.
Ahmad wouldn't deny it and say he didn't feel hurt but now he was getting mad. Was she seriously choosing her job over this entire relationship did anything they have even mean anything to her? He could hear her muttering underneath her breath and placed her hands on the sides of her head shaking her head.
"IdontwannaendlikemyfatherIdontwannaendlikemyfather." He could hear her soft voice muttering as she was shaking her head seeing the drops of tears floor on the pathway turning darker in certain spots on where her tears laid.
"What are you saying, Veronica."
"I DONT WANT TO END UP LIKE MY FATHER." She exploded she looked drained and tired. Veronica felt her eyes getting hooded before everything went black and she finally collapsed.
Ahmad quickly put his hands out catching her in a bridal style before she fell to the floor. He could hear the thunder symbolising rain was coming he began to shake her to wake up and was beginning to panic that she wouldn't wake up. He made a quick decision to take her back to his house. He knew the hospital was a better choice but he wanted to see what he could do first even if it was a big risk.
...
Veronica groaned feeling a headache coming on. She leaned up only stopping when she saw a warm towel fall down onto her lap.
"You're awake." She looked in the direction of the voice seeing Ahmad in only joggers seating on a chair.
"Veronica." He sighed rubbing his head he was beginning to get tired and he just wanted to know what was going on.
"Veronica I'm sorry you lost your job, trust me if I could take back today's event I would in a heartbeat." He said getting up to the edge of the bed going on his knees to take in her hands kissing it.
Out of reflex she quickly took her hands away looking away to the side not wanting to see the look on his face.
This time Ahmad had enough and snapped.
"Alright, Veronica what is it, what the fuck is it. I have tried and tried to understand and be patient with you but right now I'm fucking tired. I'm tired. Do you forget I'm human too? I've got other shit on my plate but I push them to the side so I can be there for you."
"I never asked you to." She muttered
Ahmad couldn't believe his ears he got up pacing around the room. He was beginning to stress out and he was getting angry. Normally he was a calm guy but something about today struck a nerve.
"You never asked me to." "Yo-" he cut himself off grabbing a light on top of a drawer and throwing it at the wall making it smash into pieces.
"YOU NEVER FUCKING ASKED ME TO." He shouted in her direction.
"YES, I NEVER FUCKING ASKED YOU TO." She got up off the bed walking Infront of him standing in front of his face.
"YOU'RE NOT MEANT TO ASK ME TO VERONICA. I AM YOUR BOYFRIEND. I'M SUPPOSED TO BE THERE FOR YOU."
"WELL LOOK AT WHAT YOU BEING HERE DID FOR ME."
Ahmad paused he couldn't believe she had just said that. This is how he knew he had finally fallen in love with her. It sounded crazy that this is the moment he knew. But he knew. Ahmad had been with plenty of girls in his life more than he could count and he never felt any type of emotion when it came to women.
He never cared when they would cry to him or even try to get his attention. All they were good for him at the time was for getting his dick wet and nothing else.
"Yeah look where that got you." He muttered back giving her eye contact. You could see and hear how devastated and tired he was.
"Veronica, if you had felt this way since the beginning."
"Why did you agree to be my girlfriend." He questioned whether it couldn't have been the sex that made her go crazy and said yes there had to be a reason.
".....I agreed because..... because you make him happy." She muttered tears welling up in her eyes.
Veronica broke down. "Ahmad, I don't know what to do everything is ruined I'm going to end up just like my father."
There it was again her mentioning how scared she was to end up just like her father he was confused. Imani had told him that Veronica and her father were close. Why didn't she want to be like him?
Veronica, please talk to me. What is going on, why don't you want to be like your father."
He wiped away her loose tears pulling her to the edge of the bed.
Both their emotions were high right now and Ahmad took the initiative to try to calm the situation.
He watched as she looked away and took a massive deep breath her eyes were red and becoming veiny, and snot was beginning to drip down her nose and he quickly got a tissue to give to her to help wipe her nose.
"My father had a good job, he made good money and he was doing what he loved which wasn't an issue. He always came back home happy. Until one day he hired a new secretary. He didn't know she was going to ruin his life. She had a huge crush on my dad and my dad didn't pay any attention when he had my mom."
"He only had eyes for her." She breathed out a laugh
"There was a time during an office party. My dad had come out of the bathroom and that's when she showed up she tried kissing on my dad seducing him she even landed a few kisses cause you could see the lipstick on his neck and collar."
"Once he had a hold of her he snapped and yelled at her for trying some shit like that and fired her on the spot." "He told my mom on the same day they didn't know I was hiding on the stairs listening to the conversation."
"Later at night a few days later. We were having a family dinner only stopping when we had heard some knocks on the door. My dad opened it, they questioned who he was and when he answered them by stating his name they arrested him on the spot.
Veronica began to lightly chuckle. "Could you believe she had accused my dad of raping her? It took five years to clear his name five. They tossed him into prison and threw away the key. My mom was confused during court where was the evidence? Where was anything? He spent 3 years in jail for something he didn't commit. No one knew why or even understood how it happened his case was mishandled."
"When he finally got out of jail. He put on the brightest smile when he saw me and my mother."She smiled to herself. she felt like it was yesterday.
"His boss had promised him his job back, he didn't believe for a second my dad did what he was accused of. So my dad was happy that he wouldn't struggle to look for a job. Only to find out that his old boss had passed away due to natural causes and a new boss was replaced. My dad never got his job back."
"It took him a year one year to find a job. He now had a criminal record so finding jobs wasn't easy it was always them talking about him being over-qualified or him having a record."
"One day he had finally got a job. It was in a store he would stock shelves and do checkouts. That was my dad's job for the rest of his life until he stopped .....due to cancer. He never got promoted and sometimes you could see his smile fade every time he came home. I remember hearing some of the conversations he and my mom had. They would have small arguments but they always worked it out. The main subject was my dad was tired. He was receiving less than minimum wage and my mom had to be the breadwinner."
"It was until the fifth year, my mom revealed a secret stash she has been hiding ever since my dad got arrested. She always thought the court date was fishy and hired someone to dig up some information. That's when we found out that his old secretaries father bribed the judge into giving him jail time and throwing away the case as long as my dad got locked up."
"My family was heartbroken." She leaned her head on his lap as he stroked her hair and face.
"My father spent most of his entire life fighting for his freedom and working at the same job and same position for many years." She sniffled. That's why I was so scared. I didn't want that to happen to me.
My mom doesn't know but I know more towards the story than either of them knew. I called myself a ninja." He chucked at her last sentence.
"Why didn't you ever tell me, Veronica? I want to be there for you and I want you to be able to come to me." He kissed the side of her head as he continued to stroke her face.
Ahmad was shocked at the story and completely understood why she was always afraid. Veronica wasn't afraid of commitment or their relationship. She was scared of being trapped doing one thing her entire life. She saw how that affected her father and it was clear that it had traumatised her. He wished he would have told her. Here he was thinking that she didn't want to be with him and all this time it was due to what she saw as she was growing up.
Now it made sense on her reaction when she got told she was fired. When Ahmad looked at her face he swear he couldn't recognise her they. The way she begged and pleaded for Mr Ross to give her back her job back only for him to say no killed him.
Ahmad cursed himself tomorrow was the announcement for the promotion she tried to be so perfect this entire month on for it to blow up in her face.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said." She yawned getting comfortable on his lap.
"It's ok Darlin, I'm sorry too." He sighed as he massaged her hair.
He leaned and sighed seeing her asleep he kissed her on the lips then carried her in a bridal style tucking her in the bed before going next to her and cuddling her body.
She needed him.
...
