Didn't I Tell You

Alijah took the pen from Trevor and erased what he had just sketched. She'd described how he needed to draw it in great detail, and she knew he was talented enough to do it. Therefore, she surmised that he was trying to mess with her. She sent a glare his way before holding the pencil back out to him. He flashed her a smile, and Alijah simply rolled her eyes at him.

They were working on the marketing campaign for the cell phone the company was about to release. The prototype had come out exceptionally well, and Kieran himself had looked over all of the features alongside Layla. Alijah had to admit that it was a nice phone, and it would be affordable. She would wager that it would be one of the new biggest sellers.

Kieran had assigned the project to Trevor personally since he had done so well on the last three campaigns he had worked on. This, of course, meant that Alijah was helping him because she had lent her assistance in those three campaigns. She did not doubt that Trevor would have been able to do it himself.

He was talented, but she suspected that while he could visualize what he wanted, it was hard for him to translate that to paper often. If there was someone on his team or in his department that could pull the images from his mind as Alijah seemed to be able to and help him bring them to life, she suspected that he would ask them instead.

Watching over his shoulder, she gave directions to him. They were putting the final touches on the last piece of it before Trevor went about making it digital and adding color for the presentation he was meant to give to Kieran in a week. She had faith that he would get it all done in time, and it would look amazing, though she would meet with him again in three days to check his progress.

Looking at her watch, she said goodbye to Trevor and left marketing. She was taking a long lunch today because Kieran would be on a video call with Mr. Lao from China. The man still held no tolerance for Alijah, but she didn't care. Kieran, however, had told her she could use the time for lunch or anything else she saw fit since she had put together everything he would need in the meeting the night before.

She made her way out of the office building and to the small cafe she enjoyed going to. There she met with Layla and Gale for lunch.

"Hello, ladies." Alijah greeted as she made her way over to the selected table. "Have you been waiting long?"

"No," Layla responded, shaking her head. "We just got here a moment ago."

The three of them headed to the front counter and ordered before sitting again and waiting on their food to be ready. They made small talk, and when their number was called, Layla rose and retrieved their food.

"So, Layla, do you have anything special planned for your birthday?" Gale questioned.

"Well, I'm hoping Alijah will give me whatever treatment she gave Kieran last month," Layla responded with a smirk in Alijah's direction.

Gale reached out and swatted her. "Leave her alone. You're always flirting with her. You are too old for her."

Alijah laughed as Layla turned to Gale with a pout. "I'm too old for her? Kieran's older than I am."

Shaking her head Alijah took a bite of her sandwich before speaking. "I like older men. What can I say? On a different note, what are you seriously doing for your birthday?"

"I don't know. Gemma says she has something planned but won't tell me what it is."

"Well, I'm sure you'll love it," Alijah stated.

"Yes, and whatever it is, you better be appreciative and tell her as much," Gale added after swallowing a bite of her salad. Alijah had noticed that she was like an older sister to Layla. She didn't know exactly how long they had known each other, but she knew it had been many years.

"Oh, before I forget. Alijah, are you and Kieran coming to my art auction Christmas fundraiser?" Gale questioned.

Alijah bit her lip. "That's the same night as the office Christmas party. I have a piece for you, though, and Kieran is planning on donating."

"That's fine. I know it was a little short notice when I called you about it a couple of days ago. Especially since it's in just a couple of weeks."

The three women talked as they finished their lunch. Alijah said her goodbyes and headed back to the office when they were done. When she reached the building, she still had about twenty minutes left. Getting on the elevator, she pushed the button for Remy's floor.

He had buzzed earlier, saying he had some papers he would be bringing down to Kieran. Alijah figured that she would get them from him since she still had a bit of time. Remy was just as busy as Kieran was most days, and she didn't want him making an unnecessary trip. Especially with his secretary on maternity leave.

She stepped off the elevator on his floor; his secretary's desk phone was ringing. Walking over, she picked it up.

"Cayman Industries. This is Alijah. How may I help you?" She greeted.

"Alijah?" The voice on the other end of the phone questioned. "Are you the temp secretary at the moment?"

"No," Alijah answered simply. She didn't know this person, so she wouldn't give him any information. "Is there something I can help you with, Mr…"

"Sorry. Rudy Crow. I have a meeting scheduled with Remy, but I'm running behind. I just wanted to let him know."

"I will let him know, Mr. Crow," Alijah stated.

"Thank you." Was the response she received before they both hung up.

Walking to Remy's office door, she knocked and waited only a moment before he called for her to come in.

"Hey, Alijah. What brings you down here?"

"Hey. I thought I'd come and get those papers you said you had for Kieran. That way, you didn't have to make an unnecessary trip. I'm sure you're a bit swamped since Chloe is out."

"I am. Thank you." Remy responded, grabbing the papers and handing them to her.

"It's not a problem. Mr. Crow called and said that he would be running a little late for the meeting you have scheduled."

"Thank you again. After the fourth ring, I have her phone set up to ring in here. You must have picked it up before then."

"You know, I don't mind having her calls transferred to my phone upstairs and helping you out until you get a temp."

"That's kind of you, Alijah, but I don't want you overworking yourself."

She waved him off. "It's not a problem. I was a secretary at my last job, and I answered calls for the entire office and routed them to where they needed to go."

"If...if you're sure,” he responded hesitantly.

"I am."

Making her way out of his office and back to the desk, she set up the phone to automatically forward the calls to lines five and six on her phone upstairs. No one ever called those lines, so she would know that they were for Remy when they rang.

Before leaving, she asked him to email her his schedule that way, she would be able to place appointments accordingly or reschedule them if need be. Remy told her he would and thanked her again before Alijah stepped onto the elevator. She was only in there a short while, considering Kieran's office was on the top floor, and Remy's was right below his. When she stepped off the elevator, she walked over to her desk, putting her belongings and the papers she'd gotten from Remy down.

Alijah could hear voices coming from Kieran's office. At first, she thought that he may have still been on the video call, but the door was open. He never conducted business meetings with the door open. From where her desk was, she could see into the office but couldn't see his desk because of where it was positioned in the room. She figured it was one of his friends. They stopped by sometimes, and he usually left the door open. She decided to speak to whichever one had dropped by.

As she got closer to the door, she could make out the voice. Going back to her desk, Alijah retrieved a ribbon from her purse, putting it around her hair and tying it away from her face. She then took her pumps off and headed back towards his office.

"Kieran, you don't have to pretend like you don't want this. That little girl isn't here. I know it's just fun for you.” She heard Rebecca state.

"Rebecca-" She then heard Kieran start, only to be cut off.

"I know you miss me. The way we were together. The way you used to smack my ass when you hit it from the back. Don't you want to do that again?" Alijah heard Rebecca ask. She was sure the older woman was trying to be seductive.

"I'm positive he doesn't," Alijah stated as she stepped into his office. "But I'll smack the shit out of you." Two sets of eyes turned to look at her. "Didn't I tell you last time," Alijah started as she began to take her earrings off. "That the next time I saw you, I would whoop your ass?" She placed them down on Kieran's desk before taking off the rest of her jewelry and her watch, sitting them on his desk as well.

Alijah watched as Rebecca stood from where she sat and folded her arms across her chest. She was taller than Alijah was by at least six inches with her heels on, but Alijah didn't care.

"I'm not scared of you," Rebecca stated.

Alijah lifted a brow and smirked, wondering where all this bravado was the day of the yacht party. She was sure it was because Kieran was there, and Rebecca thought he wouldn't let Alijah do anything to her. Alijah didn't care that Kieran was there. If he got in her way, she would smack the shit out of him too.

She took steps toward Rebecca until she was only about a foot or so away. She had to give it to her. Even though Alijah could see she wanted to dart for the door, she stood her ground.

"I don't want you to be scared, bitch. I want you to be ready."

With that, Alijah let her hand fly and backhanded the shit out of Rebecca. She then caught her with a right to the jaw, and Rebecca stumbled back screaming. Alijah threw a left jab and hit her right in the nose. That sent Rebecca to the floor, and Alijah was instantly on her ass. She didn't believe in kicking people when they were down, but she did believe in letting her hands fly.

"Didn't I tell you I would whoop your ass?" Alijah questioned while still hitting her. "He's mine, you desperate hoe."

It was much like a parent whooping their child for something and scolding them because all the other woman could do was try to block the attack. She wasn't beating Rebecca's ass over Kieran, though. No, she was whooping her ass for the disrespect Rebecca threw her way at the party and the first time she'd come to the office.

A minute later, Alijah felt herself being lifted, but she was able to get in another hit. Even when she was in the air, being moved away from Rebecca, she still swung.

"Let go of me, Kieran,” she demanded through gritted teeth trying to get free.

"Rebecca, I suggest you get your stuff and leave because if I let her go, it's just going to be a repeat," Kieran stated.

Alijah watched, pissed, as Rebecca quickly gathered her stuff and ran from the room. She was able to get out of Kieran's hold and was close on her heels when she felt him snatch her back up. He then closed the door that she had almost made it out of. Alijah whirled on him and slapped him when he let her go again.

She watched those hazel eyes turn cold before his hand went around her neck, and he pushed her back into the door none too gently, causing her to groan in pain.

Kieran groaned after getting off his video call with Lao. It had ended early, and for that, he was grateful. Though he had decided to work with the man, he was still intolerable at times. Buzzing Alijah, he waited for her to answer him. He had told her she could take a long lunch, but he wanted to see if she was back. She didn't answer, but that didn't mean anything. When people called her work cell phone, she couldn't always answer him right away.

Getting up from his desk, Kieran walked to his office door and opened it. He looked out to find that she was still gone. Kieran didn't have a problem with that. He had some emails he could respond to before he ordered lunch, and they went over expense reports when she got back.

He had just finished replying to the first email when he heard the elevator ding. He figured it was Alijah and that she would come in once she saw his door was open. Someone did step into his office a moment later, but it wasn't Alijah. When he saw who it was, he gritted his teeth. Apparently, it was destined for him to get a migraine — first Lao and now her.

"Leave, Rebecca,” he told her before turning his attention to his computer screen, dismissing her. He watched out of the corner of his eye as she did the exact opposite and stepped farther into the office.

"She isn't here, Kieran. You don't have to pretend."

"I don't have to pretend not to want you around, Rebecca. That comes quite easily."

"Baby," Rebecca stated in the whining voice that used to irritate the hell out of him constantly. "You're letting your plaything come between us. I've allowed you to have your fun, but it will not ruin the family that we're trying to build."

Kieran looked at her. His left eye twitching. This bitch was crazy. There was no other explanation for it. He mildly wondered if she was this bat shit crazy when they dated and decided that she probably was. However, he had been more interested in what was between her legs than anything she ever did or said.

"I've never hit a woman before, Rebecca, but if you say anything else about Alijah...you'll be the first."

"Kieran, you don't have to pretend like you don't want this. That little girl isn't here. I know it's just fun for you." Rebecca stated.

"Rebecca-" He started firmly, but she cut in over him, cutting him off.

"I know you miss me. The way we were together. The way you used to smack my ass when you hit it from the back. Don't you want to do that again?"

Kieran knew she was trying to be seductive, but that was overshadowed at the moment as he tried to recall what ass she was talking about, but that was neither here nor there. He didn't get to muse in his thoughts long.

"I'm positive he doesn't." He heard Alijah state as she came into his office. "But I'll smack the shit out of you." He and Rebecca both turned to look at her. For some reason, her statement made his dick twitch. "Didn't I tell you last time," Alijah started as he watched her take her earrings off. "That the next time I saw you, I would whoop your ass?" She placed them down on his desk before taking off the rest of her jewelry and her watch. Sitting them on his desk as well and he mildly wondered why Rebecca hadn't tried to leave yet.

Kieran watched as Rebecca stood from where she sat and folded her arms across her chest. She was taller than Alijah, but Kieran knew that her height would not help her if it came to blows.

"I'm not scared of you," Rebecca stated.

Kieran wondered precisely how true that statement was. He could see the tense way she held herself, and the fact that she folded her arms across her chest meant that she was trying to guard herself a bit.

He watched as Alijah took steps towards Rebecca until she was only about a foot or so away. He was surprised Rebecca stood her ground. He was even more surprised that he was getting turned on at the prospect of Alijah beating her ass.

"I don't want you to be scared, bitch. I want you to be ready."

With that, Alijah let her hand fly and backhanded the shit out of Rebecca. She then caught her with a right to the jaw, and Rebecca stumbled back screaming. Alijah threw a left jab and hit her right in the nose. That sent Rebecca to the floor, and Alijah was instantly on her. With the way Alijah was beating Rebecca's ass, he mildly wondered if he should yell, Finish her! Because he had only seen this sort of ass beating in video games.

"Didn't I tell you I would whoop your ass?" Alijah questioned while still hitting her. "He's mine, you desperate hoe."

It reminded Kieran of the rare times he would get in trouble, and his mother would talk to him between spanking him. He hated that shit. It made the spanking last longer. However, he didn't mind this. His dick had been slowly hardening with each blow she had delivered, but it surged with blood at her declaration of claiming him and calling him hers. Yeah, he was about to bring a stop to this. He needed Alijah for something far more critical at the moment.

So, he lifted her off of Rebecca with an arm around her midsection. He held her off the ground with her back to his chest. She continued to swing and try to struggle, but he held her firm.

"Let go of me, Kieran,” she demanded, trying to get free.

"Rebecca, I suggest you get your stuff and leave because if I let her go, it's just going to be a repeat," Kieran stated.

He watched as Rebecca quickly gathered her stuff and ran from the room. Alijah was able to get out of his hold, and he saw her dash after Rebecca. She was close on her heel; however, Kieran was faster and wrapped his arm around her waist again, pulling her backward. He then closed the door that she had almost made it out of. When he let her go again, Alijah whirled on him and slapped him with what felt like the strength of a thousand angry females.

His hazel eyes turned hard, and his hand was going around her throat before he knew what he was doing. He pushed her harder than he meant to back into the office door.

"I'm not, Rebecca." He hissed at her. "Don't put your hands on me."

"Then you shouldn't have tried to play captain save a hoe and let me continue beating her ass," Alijah stated before pushing him away from her. "Why was she in here anyway?"

Kieran stared down at her. Something was seriously wrong with him. When she slapped him, he had gotten pissed, yes, but now his dick was uncomfortably hard, and all he wanted to do was bury it inside of her. At that exact moment, his control broke.

Reaching out, he grabbed her by the neck again, pulling her to him. He molded his lips to hers and began to lead her in a harsh kiss. His other hand went down to hike her skirt up before ripping her panties away. She gasped, but he didn't release her. He then went about freeing himself from his boxers and pants. Kieran checked to see if she was wet enough for him to bypass foreplay. The entire time he punished her lips with his.

Removing his hand from around her neck, he picked her up and held her against the door. He then positioned himself at her entrance. With one hard thrust, he was seated balls deep inside of her. Alijah removed her lips from his, leaning her head back against the door and groaning.

Kieran didn't waste any time as he began to thrust in and out of her swiftly. Her back was hitting against the door, and he knew if anyone came down to see him, they would know exactly what he was doing to his little assistant, but he didn't care. He slid his dick in and out of her as she moaned without abandon.

After a few moments, he moved them away from the door and walked over to his desk. He removed himself from Alijah's pussy and sat her on her feet before turning her around. He bent her over his desk, pushing her skirt up her hips, before bending his knees to reenter her. As he fucked her from behind, he slapped her ass, causing her to moan. He pounded into her, and she reached back, trying to push him away.

"Baby...wait,” she groaned out.

Kieran grabbed the hand she had on him and then the other one, holding them hostage in one of his. He reached up with the other hand and laced his fingers through her hair, pulling her head back.

"You had to put your hands on me, right?" Kieran questioned, slamming into her hard, causing her to release a surprised moan. "I'm never going to put my hands on you in any way you don't like, baby, but I am going to murder this pussy." He then growled out.

He continued to slam into her over and over. Kieran was sure it was right at the precipice of what she could take. He angled his hips and hit a spot that had her trying to jerk her hands free from him. He wouldn't let her go.

"Stop trying to get away from me, baby,” he told her, tightening his grip on her hair a bit. "You're going to take this dick,” he commanded, but it wasn't exactly as if he gave her a choice.

"Kieran, please. I apologize." Alijah told him with a moan.

He released her hair then and smacked her ass hard. "It's too late for apologies."

He continued to fuck her, and he knew that she wanted to cum, but he was intentionally not letting her. He hadn't decided whether or not he would allow her to since she had hit him. His first thought was to deny her that pleasure. However, he enjoyed the way her walls felt when she came around his dick.

Reaching around with his free hand, he began to stroke her clit. He could feel his balls tightening, and he decided to let her cum.

"Cum for me,” he demanded. "Cum all over my dick."

A few seconds later, he felt her walls tighten as her juices flowed from her. Kieran gave her four more strokes before he pulled out. He stroked his dick twice, and ropes of cum began to paint her caramel ass.

"Shit!" Kieran exclaimed as the last spurt of come left him. He released her hands then. "Stay there."

Going into the bathroom, he turned on the warm water before grabbing one of the towels and his shower gel. He then grabbed another towel that he planned on just wetting. Once he had everything ready, he walked back into his office to find, Alijah still lying across his desk, breathing hard. He smirked to himself. He cleaned her up and then himself as he watched her fix her skirt.

"I should punch you for pulling my hair like that,” she told him with a glare.

Kieran wrapped his hand around his semi-erect dick and shook it at her. "Go ahead." He watched her stare at him a moment as she bit her lip.

"Put that away,” she then stated.

Kieran threw the towels in one of the chairs and did as she asked. When he was done, he could still feel her staring at him.

"You didn't answer my question."

"What question?" Kieran inquired as he picked the towels up and took them back into the bathroom.

"Why was she here?"

He made his way back into this office and over to his desk; he shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, baby, but she's looney as a fucking toon."

"I don't want her back here, Kieran. That woman irks me, and I may do more damage to her next time."

He beckoned her around the desk, and she came to him. He pulled her down into his lap and kissed her lips. They were a bit swollen from his earlier treatment.

"I'll take care of it,” he told her after they had pulled apart. She went to get up, but he pulled her back down and took her chin between his thumb and forefinger. "You know I'd never hit you, baby, but seriously, don't put your hands on me again. Especially when I don't deserve it."

Alijah simply nodded at him, and Kieran leaned in to kiss her forehead before allowing her to get up. He watched her walk out of his office before picking up his phone and calling security. He would have them keep a close eye on everyone who came into the building and turn Rebecca away if she was stupid enough to return.
