I open my mouth wider and send him to the back of my throat.
His fingers dig into my hair, and his body shudders. “Fuck, Soraya.”
He shouts, and I swear like both him and Aric are shouting at the same time. The creamy, salty taste shoots into my mouth. I moan as I swallow it all, enjoying his shuddering.
Ares pulls away and drops to his knees. “You’re trying to kill me, woman.”
He leans down and kisses me.
I smile, licking my lips. “Never…after all…I am your wife.”
E News! Live!
Soraya Maude marries just four months after her runaway wedding to Elias Thorne.
Art restoration expert Soraya Maude officially married Greek billionaire Aric Kallistratos in a small private ceremony last week.
The out-of-the-blue marriage comes only four months after her dramatic runaway wedding to media king Elias Thorne. Guests describe the wedding as intimate and heartfelt, with Soraya glowing in silk and roses and Kallistratos dashing in black.
No grand spectacle this time, just quiet promises, family, and close friends. While Soraya and Aric have made no official statements, the whispers in society circles all agree: this union is no rebound. Elias Thorne, however, sends his best regards. Whatever happens, Elias is in the past, and Soraya has finally found a place where she belongs.
“I can’t find my Stanley. Has anyone seen my Stanley cup?” Nisa screams at the top of her voice. School has officially begun,and there is a 12-year-old in the house shouting because she can’t find a water container.
I lean against the kitchen counter, sipping a cup of coffee.
Nisa comes through the door. “Raya, have you seen my cup?”
I shake my head. I can feel Ares before he comes into the room. It’s like I am always aware of his presence.
From the slow, calm demeanor, this is Aric, not Ares. “Good morning, little flower.”
“Morning. Have you seen my cup? It’s pink and white with Hello Kitty stickers.” Nisa sounds distressed, but in a 12-year-old’s my-world-is-about-to-end sort of way.
Aric shrugs. “If you were allowing me to drive you to school, you would have everything in order.”
I hold back a smile behind my coffee cup. Last night, Nisa asked Phobos to take her to school, and my husband has been in his feelings. Husband. I’m still getting used to the word, but I love it. It feels like I finally belong somewhere with someone.
“Are you laughing at me, Wife?” Aric comes and stands in front of me.
“Laugh at you? Never.”
A smile breaks out on his face as he holds my throat and bends to kiss me.
“Ick. You guys are too old to be kissing like that,” Nisa complains.
I snicker against my husband’s lips. “Phobos was in the kitchen earlier; check his car. Most likely, it’s in there.”
Nisa’s eyes light up. “I will.” She rushes over to Aric and me and gives us both side hugs.
“Have a great day, kiddo.” I squeeze her tight.
Aric huffs. “If anyone hurts or harasses you, call me and I will fuc?—”
“Let’s not say that. You are going to have an amazing day.”
“—kick their teeth in.”
I close my eyes and rub my forehead. Before I could reply, Deimos pokes his head inside the kitchen. “Dweeb, Phobos is in the car. Move it.”
