That's it, no complications, she's never been one for permanence... but then comes Kwang, with his soft words and quiet smiles; asking to be hers. And suddenly being alone really does mean being lonely, wanting comfort, a hand to hold, and something more.

Pretty Gyal, Mine
I only went to Jamaica for a little vacation. Sun, beach, good vibes. That's all. I wasn't supposed to meet him. He was intense. Fine. The kind of man who makes your whole body feel weak just looking at him. We got close-too close, too fast-and before I knew it, I was falling. So I ran. I left without saying goodbye and went back to California like nothing ever happened. But he found me. He tracked me down all the way here, and he's not letting go. Now he's in my space, in my head, in my heart. And the craziest part? A piece of me wants him to stay, no matter how dangerous it feels.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.

New Heights
I felt his hand as it gently pushed the strands of hair that were blocking his view of my face, behind my shoulder. The action caused his fingers to involuntarily graze my jawline and neck making me stiffen. The short contact left my body feeling warm and my breathing to suddenly turn irregular. "I think you look beautiful." He said in that deep, soft voice that made me feel funny. I could still feel his fingers in my hair as they now seemed to instinctively move around the strands. "Thank you.." I whispered, surprised at how softly it came out. Could he even hear it? "My pleasure mamas." He replied, giving me my answer. The words leaving his lips sounded so good that I had to look to make sure he'd actually said them. Before I knew it my body was slowly leaning towards him and even in my dazed state I didn't miss his inching towards mine. • • • Follow Athena Kingman as she experiences life and love in ways that she's never imagined before.
