"Excuse me?" Karen gasped.
"I said leave the office before I have security escort you out."
"Ian!" Karen roared.
"She's second in charge now." Ian stared at Lilith, turned on by her sudden despotic take over.
"You will not talk to me that way!" Karen barked getting to her feet.
"I will talk to you how I want. You're a pathetic, weak woman and you embarrass me as a female. This business is about using our God-given gifts for stupid men to throw around ridiculous amounts of money. You're a disgrace to that, you cheating, child-killing whore. Leave the office."
"Ian!" Karen whimpered.
"I don't have time to see you out. Ian, this better be taken care of." Lilith glared at him a minute then turned on her heal and strode back down the hall just as confidently as she marched in.
IAN's not gonna give away the end
I don't know what's come over her, but I like it. I love my sweet, innocent, naïve Lily, but I think I love this authoritative tyrant more.
I was afraid to tell her what's been going on, afraid she'd leave me. I don't think she's only with me for money, but I think when she finds out the sum of money I'm paying Karen to leave me alone and not kill herself, she will be pissed. Karen can bring this company down in a few phone calls and that's the main reason for the pay-off… My father's main reason. But my main reason is to get her out of my life. I still love her and it's going to be hard, but I'm ready for her to go. I'm ready to spend my life with only Lily, especially after all of that.
I'm beginning to feel more at ease, like maybe we'll pull the company through. I'm pissed off she's changed her file to offer sex and I think I'll change that back without her knowing, but right now I'm not going to mess with it. Right now I'm staring at Karen who's blubbering in front of me and I know I have a shit-storm coming my way.
Her words are unintelligible jumbles and she's gasping for air like she may go into cardiac arrest, but I refrain from going to her. It hurts. I want to calm her down, but I want this part of my life over. I want to keep Lily in my life and I think she's doing this to Karen because of what Karen has done to me. I can't disrespect Karen how she's disrespected me. I know having an affair with Lily was an ultimate disrespect, but Karen doesn't know about that. As far as she knows, I've been a diligent boyfriend the past three fucked up years we've been together.
"Ian!" she gasps my name.
At a loss for what else I can do for Karen, I pick up the phone and dial Doctor Russo, the company psychologist.
I've seen her every day this week. She's been in the office begging me to take her back, to give her back her job, but she hadn't shed light on anything until today. She's finally told me everything.
How she wasn't arrested when she killed the unborn child is beyond me, but the responding doctor is a friend of her mother's and I can only imagine the deception used to keep Karen out of jail.
She's a heap on the floor now and I really don't think she's breathing. Doctor Russo instructs me to call an ambulance and as much as I don't want to draw attention to the office, I call before she dies. Picking her up from the floor, she latches onto me like a life ring. Unwrapping her from around me is impossible, not without hurting her at least. I try to get her to stand on her own or sit in a chair but she tries to kiss me.
Fighting her off, I wrestle her into the chair, holding her there while she thrashes and screams. Thankfully none of the girls are in the office today except Tash and the two new girls. Which reminds me, I need to fire the one. I'm assuming she's pissed Lily off.
Karen's still thrashing and begging me to kiss her, fuck her, hit her. A fucking ambulance needs to hurry.
As soon as the paramedics come into my office, I release Karen and she lunges at me, swinging.
"You fucking son of a bitch. You bastard. Fuck you and fuck that bitch. I will fucking kill you!" she screams, spitting as they pull her off me to sedate her and strap her to a gurney.
"You alright?" A female paramedic looks at my face. "Let me wipe it." The cotton ball she presses to the scratch Karen got me with makes me wince.
"I'm fine." I step away from her, releasing a sigh, I pinch the bridge of my nose.
This has been the most stressful afternoon of my fucking life and I have a lot of work to do, but all I want to do is see Lily. I want to fuck her. That should be the furthest thought from my mind, but losing myself in Lily always melts away the bullshit I've created for myself.
Lilith sat through a ceremony for her client's son graduating from medical school. As she sat there with her hand in her client's lap like instructed, she thought about what she did at Luxe. Whatever took over was liberating.
After the ceremony, she attended dinner with her client and his son. Ross was distracted by his cellphone before a licentious expression smeared his face and his unreserved gaze landed on her; Lilith smiled warily.
"I get updates from Luxe," he quietly said.
"Oh?" She had no idea Luxe texted updates or what updates would consist of.
"It says." He lowered his voice and leaned toward her. "You're available for more." His breath quivered.
Her stomach flipped and she wanted to kick herself. There was no way she could sleep with that man.
In a whisper she sweetly replied, "I am, but you have to set up an appointment. You can't add it on last minute." She put her hand on his shoulder and could feel him trembling while his exhaling breaths vibrated from his throat.
The thought made her sick and she knew she made a brash decision to offer something she more than likely couldn't go through with.
Riding up to Luxe's floor in the quiet elevator, thoughts of Justin filled her head. She hadn't heard from him that week and though she wanted to contact him, she wanted to keep things professional. It was easier to deny the flourish in her chest for him.
The silent office was screaming at her and she wasn't sure she could focus, but when she sat behind the receptionist desk and turned on the computer, a need to learn the system cancelled out all other thoughts.
Digging around she found the updates section and saw the message Ross received while they were at dinner. Her heart pounded in her chest from the vile thought.

With a quick delete, her heart rate began to slow and her next step was terminating the scheduling app Karen created. The brazen step that would come next had her faltering. It took close to ten minutes to bring back the authoritarian that had begun an overhaul that afternoon. Punching send on the keyboard, she alerted all sixteen girls and six men working for the company that Karen was no longer employed through Luxe and they were not to follow any instructions she may give.
As she started to delete Karen's name from everything in the system, the voices of two men lingered down the hall. She immediately recognized one as Ian's. His office door had been closed and she'd been there for over an hour assuming she was alone. A loud laugh filled the dark hallway and she realized it was Ed's.
"You better marry her now if she's stupid enough to not marry you for your money." He laughed again and Ian let out a chuckle. "She's a sweet girl, Ian. I'm just not sure she'll do what you're promising. I have no problems with making her partner once she proves herself and signs. You never know, she could be paving the way for a takeover, son, and you'll be left on your stupid ass. You know she's seeing an abundance of other men besides you."
"That's her job."
"These men aren't clients. She was with Borg at the Halloween party and she was with a bl
ack man when I saw her at the bar."
"I know about everyone Lily sees. I'm telling you, the company needs her right now."
"Then marry her because I'm not partnering with someone who doesn't sign a prenup. I didn't think you'd ever get rid of the crazy one and I have to say, I expected Lily to go running a long time ago. If she's as smart as she is beautiful you need to lock this one down, but all I see is beauty and body."
"She's extremely intelligent, dad."
"I think you're blinded by her perky tits and tight ass."
"She's the complete package and she's going to be my wife so don't talk about her perky tits and tight ass."
"Lips too. I have to say I'd like to see what those—"
"I have no problem punching a man in the face for sexualizing my wife, even if you are my father. You'll see what she's capable of doing for the company and you'll grovel like I do."
Ed slapped his shoulder. "I hope you're right. So Karen is locked away?"
"Probably for a while. I didn't want to but I didn't have a choice. She's been in here every day this week. I'm not going to lose Lily over her."
"You know, a year ago you were saying this about Karen."
"No I wasn't. I've never been in this position. A year ago I was getting an obsessed personal assistant off my back for fear of losing Karen. This is nothing like that. Lily loves me enough to let me keep Karen and marry her—"
"You mean stupid enough," Ed interrupted.
"I've heard enough of you insulting my fiancée," Ian huffed. "I'll contact you when I hear about Karen tomorrow."
"Don't let a tight body and pretty face bring this company down, Ian!" Ed called out while walking down the dark hallway. "You didn't let a crazy bitch ruin it, so don't let a smart, pretty one," he mumbled rounding the corner where Lilith sat at the desk staring at the computer. "Christ!" he griped, startled by her presence. "What're you doing here, Lily?" he snapped at her as she stood.
"I'm working, Ed. What are you doing here?" The poisonous glare directed toward him answered any questions he had relating to if she'd heard them.
"Conducting business with my son," he said defensively.
"And I'm pulling the company out of Karen's ass. Do you know your son's name is on nothing to do with Luxe's public profile? It's all Karen Dumont. A few client files even have Karen as the president of the company. Do you know she has password protected a number of files and programs so no one could take this job over without a mess and that's why Ian has three women doing one peon's job?"
"It doesn't surprise me. The bitch is crazy, but she's gone. So you clean up what you need to and I'll consider partnering you."
"I don't want to be a partner," she snickered with offense. "I don't want your company or the money, I just want your son. My perky tits and tight ass aren't all I have going for me and I'm only here so I can help my fiancé out of the mess he created."
"She created," Ed corrected.
"They created together. I know the money Ian is paying to keep your name from being slandered, Ed. I plan on getting married in Barbados in the next couple weeks. You can pay for that, right?"
"Is this some sort of blackmail?" He chuckled.
"No, it's me keeping Karen from ruining you and Ian, and you paying for me to marry the love of my life because as I understand it our money will be tied up with Karen for a while."
"Love of your life." He patronizingly chuckled. "As soon as you stop whoring around town with people other than clients, I'll pay for that wedding." He walked to the elevator. "Lily, once you sign that paper you'll always be a Jacks. There's no getting away from it. You may think Ian's mother got her maiden name back, but she didn't, she's still Aurora Jacks. The bitch just goes around town telling otherwise. Look at her house deed, her driver's license, her social security card, every bill with her name. She's still a Jacks and I'm still tied to every one of those things. She wouldn't have a damn thing if it weren't for me. She still belongs to me and she damn well knows it. Just as you will."
To threaten she'd never be able to get away from Ian if she married him was insane. Ed Jacks was the epitome of slime, but his ectoplasm created two of the most important people that would ever touch her life.
"Welcome to the family, sweetheart." He winked.
She cringed as he rounded the corner. Her heels loudly clicked off the marble floor as she rushed toward Ian's office. Before she got to the door, he leaned out of the room to see who in heels was quickly approaching.
LILITH falls upon debutantes
The confusion that creates a cute line between his brows is set as he peeks out of his office. He smiles when she sees it's me. As much as I want to complain about his father, I want to fuck him first. Slamming him into the door, my mouth goes in for an assaulting kiss, and no other lips will ever spar as well. In between kissing him, I thank him for standing up for me with his father; at least for trying to put his father in his place.
We've had sex every night this week, and as much as I don't want to admit it, his mind's been somewhere else each night. All week it hasn't felt like I've been fucking Ian. Maybe it's just me, but the way he's kissing me right now, this is him. This is Ian begging me to stay forever. I know this kiss. I love this kiss. This is why I'm with him, because this kiss tells me all the things he can't say.
My dress is off and his mouth is traveling down my chest, down my stomach, until he reaches my black lacy thong and stops. He takes a minute to look my underwear over, before looking up at my matching bra.
"Fuck, Lily," he breathes and my eyes close when he says my name. My name hasn't breathed from his lips out of passion in over a week, and not until now have I realized how disheartening that is.
"Fuck me," I exhale.
The precious time he takes to get me out of my thong is building a fury inside of me. One I need to get out with a bursting orgasm.
With fists full of my own hair, I'm leaned against his open office door while his tongue explores me like he's a starved man.
My breath has quickened and I'm so close.
He stops twirling, or flicking, or whatever amazing thing he does with his tongue and says, "You gonna come, baby?"
Don't stop, Ian!
"Yes," I moan. "Yes, don't stop, don't stop, don't sto—" I shriek pleasure while I feel the vibration from his pleased hum travel from my pelvis through my thighs. "Fuck."
Wasting no time on my blissful comedown, he gets to his feet and starts undoing his belt. I need this, right now, and I try to help with his belt but I'm just in the way. He hits my hands down and drops his pants.
"You want my cock, baby?"
"Yes, Ian, please," I beg him, wanting him to shut the hell up, at least until he's inside me.
"Tell me," he whispers while teasing me with the head.
"I need it, baby. Please fuck me."
"Say my name," he breathes.
My nails dig into his shoulders through his shirt as he pushes inside of me.
"Ian," I moan, releasing a deep exhale of stress.
"I love you, Lily," he whispers in my ear while slamming my back against his office door with each thrust. His words make the forceful pounding soft and it only takes a few minutes before my built up dam is breaking down the barrier.
"God, Ian!" I scream. "I love you!" Opening my eyes, I don't want to miss the look that's always on his face when I'm coming around him.
It takes a moment for my eyes to come into focus after my gushing orgasm, but when they do, a figure over Ian's shoulder at the end of the hallway draws my attention as they dart out of view.
"Ian," I breathe, panting from both the amazing orgasm I haven't experienced in days and the fact someone saw us. "Ian, someone." I'm still panting, too flustered to form a sentence.
"Fuck," he growls, his lips slamming against mine for a hard kiss while he finishes with a knee weakening orgasm that he's fighting to stand through and hold me up.
The second my feet touch the ground I pant out, "Who has a key?"
"What?"
"For the office? Who else can get in?" I'm gathering my thong and pulling it on quickly.
"Uh, Karen, you now. Tash."
"Fuck," I mumble and wiggle into my dress. "Someone saw us."
"What?" He looks over his shoulder.
"I saw someone at the end of the hall. A woman."
"Karen?"
"No, it was a short haired blonde. Tash is blonde." I pause. "There was a pocketbook at the front desk." I sigh, attempting to fix my hair. "She must have come back for it."
Ian's pants are on and he buttons his shirt while jogging down the dark hallway. "Tash?" he calls out. I should follow but my legs are keeping me planted. "No one's here."
"I know I saw someone, Ian!" I bark. Sickness is consuming me and I can feel my heart beat in my throat.
"I believe you, baby. I'm just saying they're gone." He fixes his tie. "Fuck," he mumbles.
"Yeah, fuck." I roll my eyes. "This can't get out, Ian. Call her right now."
"And say what!" he snaps.
"I'll call her!" I snap right back.
This isn't good.
"Hello?" Tash answered warily.
"Tash? It's Lily."
"Hi."
"Hi. You were just in the office?"
"I forgot my wallet."
"You saw me? Us?"
"I didn't see anything, Lily." The edge in her tone gave her away.
"It's okay. I know you saw us." Lilith huffed and pinched the bridge of her nose.
Ian yanked the phone from her hand. "Tash, this can't get out," he blurted.
"Mr. J, I didn't even know it was Lily. I knew it was you but I didn't see who you were with. I'm not going to say anything."
"Tash, this really can't get out. Not right now. Not in the state Karen's in. Do you understand what I mean?"
"You mean like she'll be suicidal?"
