Chapter Three

Sullen

              I heard the front door slam with a loud click and it pissed me off even more. Who, the hell did he think he was “King fucking Tut,” so what that he owned one of the largest technology companies in the world and so what that Jaxsin was a Billionaire. A very sun kissed sexy Billionaire with a dark brown soft-cropped Mohawk, and mesmerizing whisky brown eyes that seemed to able to look into my soul. Jaxsin was an addiction that was hard to kick, and those damn tats made my pussy clinch every time saw I them. Ugh! I was so damn horny I was beginning to get desperate. Sitting down on the edge of the bed, I took four deep breaths and let them out to calm my nerves. I should have taken Jaxsin up on his offer to let him pleasure me.

              Maybe I over reacted a little, I mean some women would kill to live a life like this, but see I just wasn’t any woman. I had loved Jaxsin since I was sixteen years old and I wanted to build a life with man, not just sit back and play the live in mistress roll while he was fucking whomever he wanted! As I lay back on the bed I had sent the lord a silent prayer to give me strength and a sign to continue to love this man even when’s he’s acting like an ass! I pulled myself up showered and dressed in a killer black Vera Wang off the shoulderAsymmertical dress with red fuck me heels I kept my hair down because Jaxsin loved my hair down. I looked at myself in the mirror and not to toot my own damn horn but, “Toot, toot,” I looked fucking hot! If Jaxsin wouldn’t come to me I guess I would go to him.

              It didn’t take me long to drive to his office. I strolled in and of course, everyone snapped, all eyes towards my direction. I politely said my “Hello’s” and kept it moving right on down to Jaxsin’s office. Before I went in I took another deep breath to calm my nerves then I knocked on his door. When he didn’t answer I looked around to see if Kyla the “Barbie Doll twit was at her post,” and of course she wasn’t . Oh well, I opened the door and stepped inside and what I saw confirmed what I had though all along. Kyla was kneeling in front of Jaxsin with nothing but her bra and panties on attempting to unzip his pants. Jaxsin had Kyla’s dress in his hands looking down at her.

As I’m standing there in shock Jaxsin jerked his head around and the look he had on his face was fucking priceless! His ass stood there looking dumbfounded with his mouth wide open because he’d just been fucking busted! Tears threaten to spill out of my eyes but I wouldn’t dare let them fall, I had asked the lord to send me a sign but damn, did it have to be this one? As bad as I wanted to drop kick both of their ass in their motherfuckin throats I also asked the lord for strength and that’s exactly what he gave me as I turned around and walked calmly out of his office not wanting to cause a scene on his job. I had more class than that. As I stepped into the elevator, I could hear Jaxsin hauling ass down the hallway calling my name out.
God please close the elevators door before he gets here.
The doors began to shut just as Jaxsin appeared. I could hear him banging on the doors yelling out for me to wait. The lord does work in mysterious ways. I sank back against the wall and allowed my tears to fall.

By the time I made it back home, I was an emotional wreck. I couldn’t believe that he had actually stood in my face and lied to me about Kyla. A woman knows when her man is up to no good. The only man I had ever loved had played me. Jaxsin and his parents had been there for me since I was sixteen. My parents were killed inside of our home when two robbers broke in and tried to rob us. My father managed to get one shot off hitting one of the robbers but my father hadn’t known that the robber had had an accomplice helping him until he was struck from behind with a baseball bat knocking him unconscious. My mother came running down stairs to where my father was, only to be shot in the head and killed instantly. The robbers took everything they could get their hands on. Once they were finished, the one my father had shot went back and shot him three times killing him. It was the most horrible scene I walked into because I was the one who had come home and found them.

I remembered screaming so loud. Jaxsin who had been outside washing his dads car had heard me and came rushing down, took in the scene scooped me up and took me back to his house. Jaxsin’s family took me in and made all the arrangements for my parent’s burial because I had been in such shock that I couldn’t get past seeing my parents on the floor dead. Jaxsin’s family had been a Godsend because even though I owned my parents’ house now; I couldn’t stay there knowing what had happened to my parents. My parents had made me feel so safe and now they were gone. I ended up renting the house out to a nice family that still lives there.

My father and Jaxsin’s father Edward Dane had been best friends and business partners. Jaxsin and I really hadn’t liked each other all that much and had disagreed on everything. Both our parents had always tried to play matchmaker but it never worked we were just too different but, after my parents funeral things seemed to have changed between us. I had ended up living with Jaxsin for the remainder of my junior and senior school year. In those two years, I had fallen in love with Jaxsin but had been unable to say anything to him about it. I could tell that Jaxsin had wanted me to but neither of us acted on it. All of our friends saw us as a kind of brother and sister because Jaxsin was a few years older and he was already attending college. After graduation, I went to another college where we had seen less and less of each other but we still maintained contact through email and phone calls.

Jaxsin had ended up getting into a little trouble while at college and needed her help to get him off without his parents finding out. All the wild parties, drinking, smoking pot and screwing girls had landed him in jail. I had been in my second year of law school when I had to pull a few strings for Jaxsin and because the judge had been good friends with my parents before they had passed away, I managed to get Jaxsin off with a warning and community service.

I guessed that was his eye-opener because Jaxsin suddenly surprised me at school one day and expressed his love for me and after college, he wanted us to move in together. I was shocked to say the least and because I was so naive, I jumped head long at the chance to be with Jaxsin. He wanted a family and I had wanted the same but I wanted to be married first. This brings me to where I am right now and that, was having to make a decision to either love him or leave him because again things had changed. He obviously didn’t love me anymore and I needed to find my way with or without him. I had finished law school but my career had been put on hold for his because he didn’t want me working. No one really knew who I was because Jaxsin wanted to keep his private life separate. All the tabloids and reporters thought that I was his live-in whore that he kept hidden away and little Ms. Kyla was his arm candy and the heifer ate it up. Hell the bitch was probably sitting back eating this shit upright now! The lifestyle of the rich and famous scene was never for me and now, it was time to do what I wanted to do.

I turned on my laptop and booked a hotel and if after a few weeks Jaxsin still wasn’t willing to get his shit together then I would start looking for a house to purchase. I packed up my bags loaded them up in my car and took one last look at the place I had called home for a year. I quickly kissed the photo of us together. I had to show him that he didn’t own or control me. I couldn’t keep Jaxsin if he didn’t want to kept; and some things were better left unsaid however, it was time to implement the plan and gut punch his ass! He always expected me to be home waiting on his ass…well let’s just see what happens when I’m not for a change damn it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter Four

Jaxsin

              I hauled ass running down several flights of stairs to get to Sullen before she left.  I had to try to explain to Sullen that what she saw was not his doing. He had walked into his office after the board members left for lunch to find Kyla sitting on his desk in her damn bra and panties. By the time, I hit the exit door leading to the parking lot Sullen had already sped away. Fuck! I yanked out my cell phone out and dialed Sullen’s number. It went straight to voicemail. Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

              I couldn’t leave the office because the meeting would resume in less than ten minutes. Fuck! I dialed Sullen’s number and left her a voice message telling her I would be home as I could and he would explain what she saw. I didn’t go into detail because I wanted to look her in the eyes so that she could see and feel that he wasn’t lieing to her.

              I hurried back inside to confront Kyla and the bitch had the audacity to still be in his office although she was fully dressed now! I slammed my door and asked Kayla what the fuck kind of game was she playing!

Pouting, Kayla looked at me with pleading eyes and responded, “I’m not playing any games with you Jax I told you I wanted you.” 

“You had this shit planned didn’t you I yelled!”

No Jax I didn’t have this planned, I didn’t know your plaything would show up at the office this morning but I’m glad she did. Sullen is not in our league Jax. “Why do you keep wasting your time on her?

My patience with Kyla was over I should have fired her ass a long time ago. Get out of my office and don’t come back your fired!

“I’m what, you can’t possibly be serious? Jax what about…,”

Get out I yelled, ready to choke the shit out of her if she continued to stand there. Kyla turned and strode to the door and stopped. This isn’t over Jax I always get what I want she said in an angry surprised voice.

              I slammed my fist down on my desk; I knew exactly what the hell Kyla meant. Her ass was mischievous enough to try to sue me for sexual harassment but what Kyla’s cheeky ass didn’t know was that I had camera’s hidden in my office. If she tried to go that route then I would have proof that it was her doing all the harassing. It was good thing I had Vander to call around to find a replacement for Kyla and he’d found a nice older woman that was married and had grandchildren. Vander had met with her and liked her right off the bat. He’d checked her background and asked when she could start. Ms. Nancy McQueen agreed to start fresh that Monday morning. I had planned to tell Kyla Friday afternoon that her services was no longer needed but she sealed her fate by that stunt she’d just pulled so today would be her last fucking day.

              I checked my watch for the time, gathered my notes and headed back to the boardroom to finish my meeting. I hoped it went by quickly so I could get home to my woman and fix this fucking mess!

It was a little past five by the time I arrived home. I was tired as hell and starving. I didn’t expect dinner in light of what had happened this morning. Even though lately Sullen had been cooking food she knew damn well I didn’t like just to get back at me for not being home. I had eaten it anyway just to piss her off even more.

When I opened, the door I noticed that all the lights were off, normally Sullen would leave at least the back porch lights, microwave light or the light above the kitchen sink on for me but not this time. I called out for Sullen but she didn’t answer. Maybe she was in the workout room. He walked into the camera room to see where she was but all the rooms were empty. The only rooms that didn’t have cameras in them were the master bedroom and the bathrooms. All the other rooms had cameras angled at the entrance of the doors so he could see anyone coming and going out of them.

              Sullen must have been in the bedroom. I headed out of the camera room and to their bedroom. When I stepped in the lights were off there as well. Had Sullen went out with Arden? Yea…that was probably it. My woman was out with her girl talking shit about me. I couldn’t blame Sullen, I had been an ass for what I said this morning to Sullen and for the shit that happened in my office. I walked into the closet to find something to lounge in after I showered as I came out my cell phone rang. I pulled my cell phone from my pocket and glanced at the screen. Shit… what now? It was my best friend Evander but when they were at the club, they went the club names Dizzle had given them, Evander’s club name was Wicked and mine was Axle.

What’s up Vander?

              “Are you getting ready roll out Evander asked?”

              “Roll out for what I replied?” I thought the club meeting was canceled Jaxsin questioned.

              Dizzle sent a text about thirty minutes ago saying that it was back on. You and I will be in the camera room tonight though.

              He scrolled through his text messages and couldn’t find a damn thing from Eric aka Dizzle the owner of Xtreme Pleasure BDSM club. Damn it, he was planning to apologize then sit down and talk his woman if she allowed me to do so and try to get back in her good graces. He rubbed his forehead. Fuck, what time is roll call? Sullen is going to choke my ass man.

In thirty minutes, Evander said, chuckling. Ya’ll haven’t kissed and made up yet?

Fuck, you Vander don’t worry about my biz at least me and mine are still together under one roof Jaxsin said getting a little annoyed.  Glancing inside the closet again, I noticed that the luggage was gone. I pinched the bridge of my nose, hoping and praying that Sullen hadn’t done what he thought she’d done.
