" Don't say anymore word than you already have, don't..." I stuck a finger out at him, sauntering away on my heels when a hand wrapped itself around my arm. Breathlessly he whispered, "You know that I do love you and...fine, what exactly was I supposed to do?" "Protect me and stand up for me. That is what you do for someone who you claim you love!" ************ Out to spite her ex-boyfriend after he had broken up with her on her birthday, Daphne slept with a stranger who turned out to be his uncle while trying to rebuff his words that she was unwanted by others.

And faced with her ex who still wants her back, what choice is she going to make?
Daphne's POV
"No" I shook my head as I tried pleading with Jaden, this couldn't be happening to me, not now, not today of all days.
" You told me that you wouldn't break my heart, remember...we had memories together, Jaden, so please...."I shut my eyes, before flicking them open, my hands around his wrist.
"It is over, Daphne!" I stood transfixed to the spot as he shoved me aside before walking past me.
For the first time, since he had walked away from me, shoving me to the side just so he could walk through, my tears refused to drop and when they did, they came first in little lines, flowing down my face ceaselessly. I shut my eyes trying as hard as I could to blink them back but no matter how hard I tried to, I just couldn't stop it.
I leaned against the wall, my back hitting the rough wall before breaking down in tears. I let them all out, all the tears that I have held in after Jaden had called it quit a moment ago, when he had looked me in the eyes and muttered to my face that I was the bane of his life and he had someone else who he loved even though we have been dating for years. Five years to be precise.
I let out a muffled sound, that sounded like I was being choked, and not wanting anyone to call the cops on me. I stood up walking down the vast hallway.
"Jaden" I whimpered as I saw him at the far end,, his lips were locked on another's woman's lips, one that wasn't mine.
My heart shattered into tiny bits which I knew wouldn't be recoverable, not when I loved him so much, even more than I had loved myself.
I clenched my fist tightly, wiping the tears on my hands away before storming toward him. If I wasn't going to have him, no one else would, no one else who wasn't me would have the man I had groomed up.
I had barely moved an inch when a hand wrapped itself around my waist. "Let me go" I screamed out loud.
"Baby, aren't we supposed to have a swell time together? Just us? Why then are you staring at another man who isn't me?'' the stranger who had his hands around my waist asked.
His scent drifted into my nostrils, numbing my senses for a minute, his eyes the same shade of blue as the ocean, and they seemed to call me in the longer I stared into them, my heart flustered when his lips turned into a lopsided grin and adrenaline coursed through my veins, the same time in-between my legs pooled with heat.
"Daphne," Jaden mumbled,
"You know her?" His partner asked, yanking his arms, until he was staring at her. I scoffed gently, not wanting to pay any attention to them because I was sure that I was going to end up crying. Yet again.
I jolted when I felt a finger run through my skin, and it felt just right because something warm pooled in between my legs, gulping in my spittle,
I was mesmerized when his eyes glanced at me, the way his eyes lit up when it came in contact with mine caused a knot in my tummy and the way I felt was different, different from how I had felt when I was with Jaden. Could it be lust?
My body seemed to have a mind of its own and a gasp escaped from my lips when he gripped my thighs, before smacking his lower lips with his tongue.
"You should be ready for the punishment I have for you, mama" he leaned against my ears, causing shivers to run down my spine with the way he had muttered out the last word. Seductively.
I was lost to him, not minding the fact that we were standing in the hallway, not minding the fact that Jaden was standing just a few steps away from us, boiling in jealousy which I could smell from here.
I melted into his arms as he yanked me closer to himself and that was when I perceived it, although the perfume that he had on assaulted my nostrils.
I could tell that he was drunk when he slammed his lips on mine, I let him take control, giving myself up to him, letting him suck on my lips until I was breathless.
"Come with me to the room now, okay? Be a good girl and come with me" he cajoled while staring at me with those misty eyes.
I bobbed my head at him and yelped out when he pulled me over his shoulder, spanking me on my buttocks, and for the first time since I met him, I was scared.
He was a stranger, one who I had just met, but I had grown so comfortable with him that I didn't care wherever it was that he was taking me to and when my eyes met with that of Jaden's who seemed to be pleading with me,
I clenched his shirt tighter when the image of how he had thrown the cake to the side, replayed in my head.
I raised my middle finger at him before turning my gaze away.
"Are you ready?" His voice, deep and smooth, sent shivers down my spine.
" You aren't giving me an answer?" I bit my lips until I could taste blood on them.
" Mama?" His voice came through again, seductive and low, I grunted when he spanked me hard, and I tightened my grip on the shirt that he had on, hoping that it was going to give him a sign.
He kicked the door open with his legs, before shutting it when we were in. A gasp escaped my lips when I saw the room I was in, although the room Jaden had booked was expensive, I could tell that this was way pricier than that, who spends so much money?
"Shut your mouth and enjoy the life you have" Irene would have told me that if she found out I was complaining.
I let him undress me, watching the clothes that I had worn pool at my feet, and I flinched when the cold air sipped through my body when he pushed me against the dresser, turning me against the mirror.
"I want you to take a look at yourself, while I take you from behind" he whispered seductively into my ears, I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat as his hands moved on my boobs, flicking on my nips.
I moaned while staring at my reflection in the mirror as he inserted himself inside me, pounding me hard from behind, I clenched the hardwood as he yanked on my hair, grinding my waist faster, taking all of him.
"You look beautiful" his voice was hoarse, and I couldn't tell if he was saying the truth because all I could see was a woman who was acting unruly, and I felt my butt sting when he spanked me again, mixing pleasure with pain. Something that I wasn't used to, but I knew I was going to love.
"Harder" I pleaded, when he slipped himself out only to insert it in with so much force that my toes curled, I stiffened when hot liquid trickled out in between my legs, but he scooped it up with his fingers, placing it in between his lips.
He threw me on his shoulders, heading toward his bed, where I knew he would continue.
"You should be ready to satisfy me until dawn, Mama, because I am an insatiable beast" his voice resonated in my ears and I dug my nails into his back, screaming in pleasure when he placed his lips in between my legs, taking me to a world I never knew existed.
