Chapter 16 New image
After our spontaneous sex, Makar listened carefully to the remaining speeches and paid me no attention. Apparently another lover fond of concentrating on work tasks through sex, I thought with a smile. Then the meeting ended.
After that, Makar spoke to the participants with an unperturbed air, as if nothing extraordinary had happened to him. I was a little fed up with the excess cum, which I could barely bear then, and looked around for water. In the crowd I saw Edward, who waved his finger at me. I looked at Makar, he was engrossed in conversation and probably wouldn’t realize that I had disappeared. I walked over to Edward and we walked out of the room together.
“Was all good?” He asked me.
“Water first.” I asked. Edward silently handed me his bottle. I drank the contents in one gulp. Little by little I was feeling better.
“Well…” I looked around to see if anyone was listening and lowered my voice to a whisper. “I sucked him first and then he fucked me. I could not resist.”
“Wow.” Edward hissed. “You didn’t make a sound! Then, after… Did he say anything?”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
I shook my head.
“Okay. To be honest, I even started to get a little jealous.” Edward admitted and looked at me with his heavy dark gaze. I shrugged under it. “I’d like to say something completely different, but… keep up the good work. We need a good position.”
“What’s next?” I asked. “When is the final meeting with the results?”
“Tomorrow. By the way, I’ll give a report. I need your help again… under the table.”
I sighed:
“And what table? Will there be someone else?”
“Fortunately for me, no.” Edward rolled his eyes dreamily. “They are closed. By the way, after the meeting there will be a banquet on the ship. It will be completely at our disposal. The company organized everything. So you should get a… stunning evening dress. Do you have your salary card with you? I will transfer money.”
I opened my mouth to protest when Makar’s voice sounded:
“Marina! I was looking for you everywhere!”
I shuddered at his voice. I was already starting to regret saying my fake name, what if he finds out the truth later?
I spun on my heel. There he was walking towards me with a slight emotion on his face. I turned my head back: Edward had left without a trace.
“Did you want to leave without even saying goodbye?” From Makar’s eyes he blew cold.
“Makar, I’m not one to run after a man and beg him to continue.” I said bravely. “See you tomorrow at the party.”
I left without looking back and wondering: “Who is this woman who just spoke with my lips? Is it me?”
Edward wrote an SMS that he was heading to the hotel to rest and advised me to buy a dress. I immediately received a notification from the bank that a deposit was completed to my account.
After having lunch in a restaurant overlooking Kazan Cathedral, I went in search of a boutique. After three boutiques, in which I did not like a single dress, luck smiled in the fourth. There I saw a beautiful dress, and it was definitely love at first sight! It was down to the ground, with an open back, and the juicy red color attracted attention, as did the material that looked like liquid metal… As the consultant explained to me, this material was called ‘lame’ and was a type of brocade… When I tried on this masterpiece, I couldn’t take my eyes off myself: the dress seemed to have been sewn especially for me!
“It’s lovely! It suits you very well.” Said the consultant. I bought it immediately without delay.
There was still a little money left and I was wondering what else I could add to my image. And a crazy thought crept into my head…
I no longer looked like I used to and, of course, I had changed. What if I also changed my appearance to indicate a dramatic change in myself? For example, dye my hair?
I went to a beauty salon already knowing what hair color I would have. I dreamed of this for a long time, but fear did not allow me to implement my plan.
After a couple of hours, I was gazing with delight at my reflection in the mirror: from the most common woman I became a princess! Beautiful deep copper curls framed my face. I was starting to remind myself of Jessica Rabbit and seemed to realize that I was falling in love with myself. Everything will surely rush!
A kind of inner core grew in me, which was hard to break, and trust filled my whole being. I understood that at the beginning of my relationship with Edward, I was not a very notable person with my complexes, which allowed Edward to treat me lightly. But a personality began to awaken in me, which demanded a proper attitude towards myself.
An SMS came from Edward. I opened it.
“Are you free now? How about a trip to Divo Island?”
He surprised me. Edward and the amusement park? Somehow these things didn’t fit. But it was interesting to see what would come of that, so I agreed and we made an appointment.
When Edward saw me with red hair, which must have shone wonderfully in the sun, he lost his words. He amused me and I gave him a hard kiss on his parted lips.
“Holly mother… Elvira! Is it really you?” He exclaimed. “Damn, you… how weird! But it looks good on you!”
He hugged me and buried his nose in my curls. I smiled satisfactorily.
“I never really liked redheads.” Edward admitted. “But this color seems so expensive, so noble…”
We merged into a long kiss. Everything in me froze and trembled. Edward’s attitude towards me on this business trip definitely started to change.
He took me to the Ferris wheel. I was afraid of attractions, and my legs trembled with fear, but the past was in the past, and that’s why I even wanted to be on top. How does it feel to be on top and look down on everything?
Edward bought the tickets and we, presenting them to the young man, entered the white cabin that had arrived. Thank goodness it was closed! At least I wouldn’t be so scared…
At first, panic tried to take over me, and my legs were shaking a bit, but I tried to compose myself and looked from Edward’s attentive face to what was happening outside.
With each meter up, the people below shrank, became quite insignificant, and the high attractions came to be at the same level as us. The clouds slowly slid across the blue sky and I gasped. We climbed high enough…
“Elvira.” Edward said hoarsely. “Look, are there people in the cabin next to you?”
I looked back and told him that there was no one. Then Edward quickly, like an animal, picked me up and, turning my back to him, leaned me down. He rested his hand on the seat, with the other hastily unbuttoning my pants. I knew instantly what he wanted. Sex on the top… It was something new and exciting!
