Eros Ramazzotti
It's been 1 week in Singapore, and after everything they'd both travelled to Singapore to achieve had been accomplished I decided we go out for a change instead of private beaches and room service. Athena loved the idea and so we hoped into the limo and got to the restaurant, and I help her out of the limo. Inside, a hostess in traditional costume puts her palms together and leads us to a table. There are palm fronds all around us. Every head turns to look at us, a normal routine as foreigners in a foreign country .
The wine list is not the best I’ve seen, but I order a light one to go with our spiced food.
“To us,” I say, lifting my wine glass.
“To us,” she echoes.
The delicate way she sips her wine is driving me crazy. Everything she does is sexy to me. She could snort when she laughs, and I would still find it charming as hell. “You’re fucking sexy, you know.”
“Oh please,” she says with a laugh, but then she licks the rim of her wine glass.
It’s something that many women have done to tantalize me, but when she does it, it pierces right through my heart,, sending desire surging through my veins. I want her so bad. And I want her right now.
Will this desire for her ever stop? Does it have an end!
I picture ripping her dress off and sucking on her gorgeous tits right in the middle of the restaurant. Laying her on the table and eating her out for dinner and dessert. My cock stirs in my pants.
“What?” she asks, a single, delicate eyebrow raised immediately she noticed that I had been staring at her too Intently.
“Nothing.”
“No, tell me please” she prompts.
“What if I don’t want to?” I tease.
“Well then, I guess we won’t be having sex anymore,” she says,
I stare at her. Surrounded by the serene light that dimmed in the restaurant she is like a seductive nymph. “Why is that?”
“If you can’t tell me what you’re thinking, then I can’t let you into my pants.” She shoots me a seductive smile.
This girl is killing me, and I’m loving every second of it. I’m starting to think that this thing between us might just work out after all. The food arrives and it is delicious. I do that thing I never do. I spear a morsel of food on the end of my fork and hold it out for her.
She takes it between her lips. Her eyes watching me. Oh, sexy.
Then she flutters her eyelashes comically and laughs at herself.
I laugh too.
We have so much fun together, and for the first time, I want more of that in my life. Fun. But not just any kind of fun. Fun with her. Fun where we go back and forth, teasing each other. Fun that makes everything we do together exciting and new, even if it’s not the first time we’ve done it. Her stockinged foot slides up my leg.
God, I want this woman.
I excuse myself from the table and go to the restroom. I’ve got to adjust myself because the conversations we were having, the thoughts I’ve been thinking, and her wandering leg, have given me a painful erection. This is definitely not the sort of place for me to be showing it off.
As I re-enter the dining area, I slam into someone and unfortunately its one of my business associate from way back.
Gary, We weren’t close or anything, but we’ve hung out outside of work before. I haven’t seen him for years, and I almost didn’t recognize him.
“Eros! Is that you” he says loudly, clapping his meaty hand on arm.
“Hey, man,” I reply, surprised to meet him here of all places...
“How the hell are you?”
Alcohol fumes hit me in the face and I lean back slightly. “I’m good. Really good, in fact. What are you doing here?”
He grins broadly. “Business, of course. Like there’s anything else? What about you? Is this business or pleasure trip?”
I shrug. “Business, mostly.”
He gives me a skeptical look. “I thought I saw someone who looked like you but I was like, it couldn't be! But then it's you, and you’re with that hot chick over there, I guessing she’s your little assistant, but wait!
From what I saw, Don't Tell me you two are hitting it? You still haven't changed your ways have you” He laughs at his own joke and slides his eyes over to where Athena is sitting. “I don’t blame you. I wouldn’t mind a bit of that ass myself.”
Suddenly it's like a cold bucket of ice fell on me, and suddenly am not so happy I bumped Into him, neither am I happy that am in this sort of situation and I’m not laughing. My stomach is churning. I hate the way he’s talking about Athena. As if she’s nothing. A piece of meat. And like I’m hanging around her just to get laid.
My whole life, I’ve had issues with relationships because my dad cheated on my mom with his secretary and even had a daughter with her. It broke my mom simultaneously breaking our family too when she found out, my mom never got over it and I hated my dad for it. It’s been weighing heavily on my mind ever since I saw Athena in that towel, but I’ve pushed the thought away more than once when she and I are together.
But to have someone else echo my own doubts, even as a joke, is like getting hit in the balls with a speeding. I’ve spent my whole career making sure I didn’t get involved with anyone I worked with and what do I end up doing? Exactly what my father did. I’m banging my secretary. Worse, I’m imagining all kinds of feelings to camouflage the fact that I’m just like my dad. Weak and without real principles. All my great protestations were only good while there wasn’t real temptation. As soon as there was one, I fell for it hook, line and sinker.
I suddenly couldn't help the anger crawling up my chest.
Even though he’s blahhed the truth in a disrespectful way, he couldn't helped his sudden burst of emotions and Gary seemed to notice..
"Hey, I was only kidding, dude. I didn’t mean anything by it.”He stammered saying
“Whatever, man,” I say, pushing past him. I make my way back to the table. This might have been unavoidable if he hadn't given in to his desires, if he had just ignored her all this shame and him breaking his rules could have been avoided.
This is it, the cold harsh clap of reality he needed to wake up. It's all over now, this date should have never happened, Athena should have never happened. He should have been more considerate in taking a lot of other things into consideration before he jumped in bed with her. He had watched Athena for the 2 good productive years she had worked for him and even under her schoolmarm attire she had made a name for herself in his company and she had a very substantial and respectful reputation in his office and he had not even think of that, her reputation and the space they had manage to build to seperate their personal life with their work life....
It suddenly dawned on him that he had fucked up big time, he should have never started this affair with her, he should have never given her hope that they could be so much more even if he wanted. Now Everyone will look at her the way Gary just did. They’ll think of her as slutty and cheap, when she is anything but those things. Athena has all his Respect and he would never want people to treat her that way. I can’t do this with her. I’ve been fooling myself. We’re away. In a hot country. We’re both attractive and we just lost our head. But the fun clearly has to end, for her sake and mine.
I walk up to the table. “We need to go.” I hate the cold sound of my voice, but it’s the only way I can get through this.
A flicker of surprise crosses her face. She doesn’t ask why. She simply sets her glass of wine down and stands up, so we can leave.
I don’t blame her for the confused expression on her face. I didn’t really explain to her what caused my sudden mood shift. I don’t want to explain it. And I don’t need to.
I’m coming off like an asshole, but my run in with Gary has me shaken up. He made it impossible for me to carry on pretending that what I’m doing is okay. Why the fuck did I have to run into him tonight? It ruined my good evening, and now, possibly even ruined things with Athena forever. I’ll never be able to look at this situation the same way again.
“Is something wrong?” she asks, as we walk out of the restaurant in haste.
“No,” I say, trying not to snap at her. It isn’t her fault that I’m upset. I’m the bad guy here. I’m the fool who let things get this far. I have rules in place to avoid situations like this, but I stupidly broke those rules for her. My father must be laughing in his grave.
"Wait until you are in my shoes, then let’s see if you can walk away"He told me once when I begged him to come back to Mom, that was the last time I saw him before he died. I spat in his face and told him I’d never be like him. Never.
Well, Dad…
She is my assistant. And I made a mistake. She’s beautiful and I got carried away. But I’m not going to let this charade continue...
He had lived his life, with his rules never wanting to be like his father....
I know I’m hurting her, but in the long run, this will be for the best for her too. She deserves better. I’ll just end up breaking her heart and almost certainly hurting her career if I keep going with this. I could never live with myself if I did that.
As a successful business man I'm aware on how one should take a hold of their career in the industry, and even if am the boss of myself I still need to stick to my rules, the Industry is even more worse for fragile women like Athena who come from humble backgrounds with no money....
They have go struggle to build their reputation, resume and a name for themselves and I can't be the one to damage a career she just started but giving her the mark and stain of the "Type of woman that works her way to the top through her superiors bed" If ever rumors like that goes around against her then she might not find another company that would hire her and even take her seriously.....
And I don't want to be the man that ruins her life!
Never!
Let her just remember me as an old flame that needs to die.
