"No because that is in violation of my next condition." I folded my arms in defiance to show him I was not going to compromise. He rolled his eyes and expelled a breath. "What's the next condition Rome?"
"This marriage will remain a marriage in name only." I held my breath and his gaze. His smokey eyes darkened as he mentally assessed the situation. The air around us remained thick as Raheem responded with silence.

COMPLETED Book Two in the Give and Take series You can only give so much before you run out. You can only bend so much before you break. No more rules. This is anarchy. I'm searching for sincerity in his almond eyes. Seven is the reason I'm still alive today. It's easy to forget when he's pulling me close and using slender fingers to move my hair out of my face. When his gaze lingers and moves from my eyes to my lips. When he kisses me so so lightly. Everything is easy to forget. He pulls away the slightest bit, lingering close, almost touching. His exhale is my inhale and I can barely stop myself. I move towards him and he moves back, keeping his hands on my waist.Complete

Sinful Temptation (BWAM) (slow updates)
"What do you want, Ameera?" His eyes darted to the kitchen door for a second, praying no one would come in. But she didn't care, she never did. Despite him being taller than her 5'11 frame, she was the one in control. Just how she liked it. A slender finger trailed across his impeccable jawline, running down his Adam's apple; and stopped at the top of his chest where she had already undone the first two buttons of his shirt. He was nervous, she could tell, but continued anyway. And without breaking eye contact, the words spilt from her plump lips like water. "What do I want?" she chuckled lowly, "I want to absolutely wreck you, take you apart in every way and put you back together. Then do it all over again, baby boy." He knew how blunt she was, but never expected her to say that; hence his speechlessness. His freckled cheeks were painted rosette with a blush that prolonged up to his ears. Aarav's flushed demeanour made her amused, but she stepped back nonetheless. The bottle of wine they originally come for was abandoned on the counter, so she took it up and placed it in his large hands. "All in due time, baby, I can wait. You can go now." And so he did, not an ounce of hesitation in his steps due to his nervousness. She leaned her self against the counter as she watched him leave, and it took everything in her not to pull him back and thoroughly ravish him. She wasn't sure what it was that hindered her. The fact that he was ten years her senior. The fact of his wife being in the other room. Or the fact that he was her pastor. ~~~ In which a girl accidentally sends a nude to her pastor.

Beautiful Stranger (Completed)
Insert from story "You have kind eyes." He said, holding my gaze. "You look innocent." That was on purpose. "Are you ever going to tell me your name?" He asked as he started to clean my foot. "I already did. It's Heather." "Heather." He said, keeping his voice even. "Yes, Heather Dean." He just chuckled, like he didn't believe me. "Why do I get the impression that you think I'm lying?" I asked. "Because of how you respond every time I called you that." Oh...Crap, that wasn't good. "You haven't shared your name either." I pointed out. "I'm waiting." He answered simply. "For what?" "For you to tell me the truth." He looked back up at me. "It only seems fair right?" "It would only seem fair if I was lying." He looked at me for awhile before saying, "So, you're going to stick to that story, huh? All right. Well, when you're ready to be honest, I'll share my name." He had a point but....I still needed to be careful. Yes, he had been kind but that still wasn't reason enough for me to trust him just yet.Complete
