Work..

Klaus

After my discussion with Lisa had ended, I took her back to the room, and after showing her the most affection I could, left the room for the study. Since her arrival I had been working from home, and it hadn't exactly been easy. Even though I didn't exactly care for her, I didn't want to leave my newly wedded bride for work just days after our wedding. She wasn't fully accustomed to the place, and with Maeve roaming the castle, I just couldn't leave her alone just yet.

"Any recent developments?" I inquired from Damon as I settled behind one of the tables. Damon had already gotten to work the moment I dismissed him from the dining table. At the moment he was the one running everything about the company, and he was doing a terrific job.

"Not much, except for the fact that we might lose a valuable investment if you don't return to work soon. Zenith Cooperation refused to sign the papers, they want a face to face meeting with the CEO before they can further the contract." Damon informed me and I rolled my eyes exhaustively.

Zenith was one of the most influential companies around, and having them as an ally was something the company needed most at the moment. However, they were unwilling to partner with us until I showed my face, and with the current situation at hand, leaving the castle was not a very easy task. Icarus was around, and it was clear he was up to something, and Maeve would probably murder Lisa in cold blood the moment I stepped out of the vicinity.

"They won't opt for a representative?" I asked and Damon shook his head sideways to answer. "What do we do then? I can't leave this place, not yet."

"We can let the contract go and partner with other companies. We need their influence and connection, but we wouldn't exactly suffer any loss without them." Damon informed me, and although it seemed like the best option, I didn't want to remain at a stagnant position with the company. Some of the kingdom's wealth came from the numerous companies I had, and although the kingdom was stable, we needed to gain more income just in case things don't go well in the future.

A breath of exhaustion broke past my lips as I turned away from Damon's gaze and tried to focus on the work waiting for me in the system. I had barely inputted my passes when another figure entered the room. At first I thought it was a guard, so I ignored it. But a second later, my nose caught the scent of a familiar presence.

"Maeve? Is something the matter?" I inquired as she walked closer. She had a frown on her face, and it was clear she had a lot to say to me. Without having to think, I could already tell it had something to do with Lisa, and that she wouldn't speak unless we were alone.

Reading the room, Damon excused himself but not without flashing me a warning glare. He never liked Maeve, the lady was way too intoxicating for someone as calm as Damon to get accustomed to. He never showed his dislike for her, nor did he disrespect her once, he just didn't like her when she was around me.

The moment Damon left, Maeve's facial expressions shifted, and with a hungry look on her face she approached me.

"You don't want to be with me anymore, do you? All you care about is her, isn't that right?" She complained with every step she took forward.

With a look of exhaustion on my face, I rolled my eyes before turning away from her. It was just as I had expected, and quite frankly I wasn't in the mood to endure her tantrums. "She's my wife now, what do you want me to do?"

"You're the alpha, you can do anything you want! Marry me! I might not give you the true heir you want, but I can at least satisfy you." She suggested before inching even closer. Her suggestions weren't exactly meaningless, I was allowed to have a second wife, however my true mate must be the one to bear me an heir. Marrying Maeve wasn't exactly a bad idea, however, with the relationship she had with Lisa, I would only end up getting torn apart in the middle of their conflict.

"Not now Maeve, I have something to do." I opposed her as I felt her presence getting even closer. However she didn't back away, not until I had returned my gaze to her.

The grin on her face widened as she approached me, her hands slowly undoing her button and bra to reveal her full and hard breasts. By the time she reached me, Maeve was already completely naked, and she got to undressing me the moment I was within her reach.

It wasn't our first time, and I wasn't really opposing the idea. Lisa wouldn't let me touch her, and she wouldn't mind if I did anything with Maeve, she barely cared for anything I did.

Maeve's lips graced mine, and slowly she pushed me down to the cushion by the side, her hard breasts pushing against my sturdy chest. For a brief while, I left control to her, letting her do all the work while I laid back and enjoyed it all.

While her tongue wrapped around mine, Maeve's hands guided mine to her breasts, and gently she squeezed them, gesturing for me to take control. My hands circled her nipples and squeezed her demanding breasts passionately while hips rocked hard against my throbbing arousal.

Pushing her over, I subdued her to the bed and pinned her down with my body. And without restraint, brought my middle finger down and slid it gently over her folds. Anna threw her head back, and a light moan escaped her lips.

"Keep going.." She breathed.

I did it again, this time my fingertip slipping between and gathering her wetness. She cried out against my lips, her back arched in the most seductive manner ever.

Two fingers worked into her, and her eyes rolled back into her head. I began a steady rhythm, every thrust and pull, a delicate and well calculated movement.

Again, she arched her back and her breasts pushed hard against my skin. I brought my lips down on her nipples, roughly I suckled on them, and between intervals would give her tip, a gentle bite.

Her hands tangled in my hair, and she pulled on them. Her legs wrapped around me, and her legs spread demandingly. Taking the hint, I urged myself to further our lustful encounter, but couldn't go on.

"What is it, why did you stop?" Maeve questioned, her ragged breath all over the place as she spoke.

"I have something important to do—"

"It can wait! I know you want me!" Maeve interjected desperately. "I know she doesn't let you touch her! You're starving, I can give you what you want—"

"Enough Maeve! Just leave, I need to focus on work!" I yelled at her, and only then did she stop talking. Tears gathered in her eyes as she slowly picked up her clothes from the floor. Her lips were trembling in opposition, and I could tell she wanted to say a lot of things to me. However, she was too hurt to even make a proper sentence.

I turned my face away, not wanting to be riddled by guilt. I had no idea why I felt the need to be faithful to Lisa Thornberry, but it had happened. We didn't love each other, and neither of us respected this marriage, yet a part of me just couldn't go ahead with cheating on her.

Maeve pushed past me as she raced out of the study, and only then did the tension in the air finally subside. The energy I once had was completely depleted, and all I could think about at the moment was Lisa, and what she would look like naked.
