A Stranger

A Stranger
Scarlett’s point of view

Asher squeezed me tightly, his face rested on my shoulder, his intoxicating fragrance swept my nostrils, a grin spread across my lips as our eyes met through the mirror before us.

“Aren't you feeling hungry? “I tried to move out of his embrace, but he wouldn't let me. “Asher, we should get going.. “

“How about we cancel our plan and just order something to eat online.. “He pouted like a little child begging for candy. I couldn't stop the laugh that bubbled out of me at his expression. It was just hard to believe that Asher Black, who was stern and cold, could act like this.

I knew love can change people, but I didn't expect this much change from him, and I loved every second of it.

I shifted, turning to him, I slid my arms around his neck, our eyes locking.

There was silence between us, only our eyes communicated with one another, the sound of our beating hearts creating a unique rhythm that could only be understood by both of us. I never knew that silence could be so calming and smooth.

“Fuck, I can't get enough of you, Scarlett.. “He slammed his lips against mine, snaking his hand around my waist, pulling me closer to him. My body collided with his firm chest, the kiss was hard, only to be soft and become hard again. I moaned against his lips, his hand moved to my clit, he caressed it gently over my lace underwear, pleasure shot through me at his touch, a moan escaping my lips.

“Fuck.. “He cursed between the kisses. “You are so wet and ready for me, Sweetheart.. “His finger continued to torment me, his lips never leaving mine, leaving my body vibrating in response. We just made love a few minutes ago and in the shower too, but all that slipped out of my mind as soon as his touch was on me. I lose my damn brain whenever he is around, but I think I should do something for him too.

I broke the kiss, causing his eyebrows to furrow in confusion, while a smirk tugged at my lips. “You've been doing all the work, but now I should do something for you, don’t you think?” My voice dripped with confidence.

My racing heart told me otherwise. Sure, I had done some research on how it works, but I had never actually done it before, and I was afraid of making a fool of myself in front of him.

Asher chuckled, his tone dripping with amusement. I swallowed hard as I lowered myself, kneeling in front of him. My eyes never left his face, and my fingers wrapped around his belt as I unfastened it. I could see that he was already hard through his trousers; my heart raced as I felt his gaze on me, dark with desire. I was sure he didn't say anything because he knew I hadn't done this before.

I unzipped his trousers, and his cock jerked out of his trousers, causing my eyes to widen in disbelief at its size, unable to comprehend that it had once been inside me.

“Do you like what you see, sweetheart?” Asher’s voice was calm but thick with desire. I swallowed as my fingers closed over his hard flesh, and with each passing second, it grew even larger.

“Damn, Scarlett... Your hand feels incredible,” Asher groaned, his voice thick with desire.

“Do you like it when I touch you here?” My hand moved in a steady rhythm, my eyes locked onto his.

“Fuck Scarlett!! I don't just like it; I love it.. “His hand landed on the corner of the hairdresser, I couldn't help but smile to myself, knowing I was doing a good job.

My mouth moved to it as my tongue glided over his shaft in a rasping stroke, his groan echoed inside the room as I took him full in my mouth. I watched his face as I deep-throated him, my mouth a hot, wet oven for his building up release. His hand gripped my hand gently, pulling me even closer, his body vibrated as he was closer to his release. Just when he was about to cum, I pulled out of him.

“Scarlett. “He groaned. I chuckled as I rose, slamming my lips against him. He lifted me into his arms, my legs wrapped around his waist. In a swift movement, he slid my underwear aside and entered me. A moan escaped my lips with each thrust inside of me, his hold on me tight so I don't fall. My other leg now on his shoulders, while he held the other. The room was now filled with the sound of our gasps and groans with each thrust, pleasure shot through me until we climaxed together. The sound of our pants and heavy breaths echoed as I rested my head against his chest, a smile stretching on my lips.

“I simply can't get enough of you, Scarlett.. “Asher placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

By the time we left home, it was already evening, and hunger was now gnawing at me. Asher wouldn't stop trying to seduce me again and again, and I always fell for it.

I sat across from him as the two of us finished having our dinner, now waiting for dessert. The ambiance in the restaurant was calm, exaggeratingly whispering luxury and expensive. I didn't want to come here, but Asher insisted, and I couldn't disagree with him. He was my husband after all, I can enjoy his money.

“I've been thinking, you know.. “I started, breaking the silence. Asher lifted his head to me, our eyes meeting.

“We never talked after we got married, and I think it's time we do.. “

Asher’s brows furrowed in confusion, but he listened to me quietly, waiting for me to continue.

“I'm planning to start my business once again.. “I said, my eyes on him as I waited for his response.

He sighed. “You don't have to work, Scarlett. I can provide for you and give you everything you want. I don't want you to work and tire yourself.. “

I extended my hand over to his, entwining my fingers with his, a smile stretching on my lips. “I know you can provide for me, Asher, and I trust you. But I want to work and make my own name. I don't want to be just a housewife with no goal in life. I want to be able to stand next to you with a proud smile as your equal. “I explained.

A smile spread across his face.

“Your happiness comes first, Scarlett. If working again makes you happy, then I'd love to watch you become more successful than me.. “

I couldn't help but chuckle at his words. I can only wish to become rich like him, but it can never happen…

“Thank you for understanding, Asher. Working will keep my mind busy from thinking of the things I want to have but can never have. I'd rather keep my mind busy.

“Just let me know if you need my support, okay? I'd always be here for you… “ Before I could get another chance to utter a word, the sound of a woman crying made me turn my attention to the voice, only to see her being poured whiskey on by a man who seemed to be her husband.

“I've had enough of you, wracked woman. Stay the fuck away from me.. “The man shouted, he rose from the chair, he started walking out of the restaurant, but the woman followed after him, sobbing. He pushed her away, causing her to fall.

I couldn't bear it anymore. I rose off the chair and walked over to them.

“Scarlett, stop.. “Asher called after me, but I didn't stop. He can't treat her like that, no matter what she's done.

“What do you think you are doing to her, that too in front of all these people? “

He turned his attention to me, his gaze dark with anger blazing in them, but I didn't care about his anger.

“How's that your problem, huh? “His voice was low and menacing.

I scoffed at his words.

“You can't treat a woman like that. Do you understand, and don't think that this ugly face of yours is going to scare me. You better apologize to her unless you want to spend your night in jail.. “The man laughed as if I'd just told him the most amusing joke. He split off a second, he lunged at me ready to slap me, but his hand didn't touch my face.

“The next time you think of raising your hand to my wife, buy your coffin first so it'd be easier to bury you. “

Asher kicked him so hard in the stomach that he fell on the ground, groaning in pain. As soon as his eyes met with Asher’s, he rose off the ground and ran out of the restaurant.

“Asher.. “The lady called out as she raised her face, her eyes falling on Asher.

Asher froze on the ground, his eyes going wide with shock as he took a look at the lady. It was like he had seen a ghost!!
