Kate held Alex’s hand like a lifeline when the plane started to land. She held her breath and her eyes was tightly shut.
Oh, she hates it whenever a plane is landing. And flying into the air. That always makes her dizzy.
Alex chuckled at Kate’s acts but he held her, loving the heat pouring out of her skin and into his.
“Never knew you fear like this, Kate?” He said with a chuckle but Kate ignored him. The mockery in his voice is not lost on her.
When she notice the tires had hit the tarmac, Kate expelled a huge breath of relief and looked over at Alex.
“And I know you found pleasure in my plight.” She snapped, mirth evident in her voice.
Alex chuckled more when he saw the stretching of her lips. The girl’s too beautiful, it makes him horny just grabbing an eye-full of her.
“And…if you must know I’ve so many phobia…height, confined spaces, flying in the air, fire…lots of it.”
Alex tsked “And here I was thinking of us riding on a Ferris wheel...” He made a sad face and clutched a part of his chest.
Kate practically hitched a breath at his confession. “My God, Alex you literally want me dead. How could you think of that? My dad is seriously going to chop your head off if he finds out you took me on such a heightened stuff.” She drawled, rolling her eyes.
Alex laughed, holding her hand. “Hmm…Well Kate I guess he'll love it if…you went on the ride with me.”
They began unfasten their seatbelt and Kate shot to her feet before Alex, clutching her bag. She scoffed at his word and held her shoulders high while they exited the plane.
Angela watched them, loving the smiles on Kate’s face. Loving that Alex is at least showing Kate was happiness is.
It wasn’t easy for Kate to handle her teenage pregnancy but what she’s seeing makes Angela’s heart bloat with share happiness.
The Hammonton air kissed their skin when they exited the plane and headed to the airport’s exit to grab their Uber.
Kate began babbling to Alex about how she developed a fear of height after she fell from their porch railing to the ground. The height difference wasn’t much but it was enough to scare her from thereon.

Aiden paced the length of his office, calling Kate’s number but she wasn’t picking the first few times.
He tried again but it wasn’t connecting. It’s already nightfall yet he hadn’t left Brazzers
Where could Kate have been?
Heck!
He has no slightest knowledge of what happened and he needed her like he needed air.
He wanted to hold her against him, feel the soft warmth of her skin.
Where could she be?
He worried his lower lip between his teeth in thought. Kate…did she travel to New Orleans?
Fuck….how would he be able to reach her?
Christmas is almost here, so prolly she had taken permission ahead of the holiday and gone home to be with her family.
Frustrated, Aiden left his office, holding his suit jacket in his arm.
Some actresses are still loitering around and Aiden was sure as hell some of them are only trying to milk pleasure from themselves because as he passed some filming room he heard some streaks of moans.
It’s no new thing in Brazzers. Every one is entitled to whatever life they desired.
When Aiden was about to take the elevator , it dinged open and Lisa was the one that slithered out of it.
Her face lit at the sight of him…though she inwardly remembered what happened last night at Mike’s party.
“AD…I never knew you'd still be here.” She belt out, stepping in front of him.
“Yeah, but I’m already leaving as you can see.” Aiden said.
Lisa swallowed against the clog of lump in her throat and stared into his eyes. God, she loves this man a lot. He and his brother.
They’re just everything she wanted in a man. Money. Power. Beauty. Male scent and body…fuck!
“About last night…”
“Yeah, Lisa about that…” A surge of guilt fluttered in his chest. He slid his eyes close for a beat and then opened again. It was wrong of him to leave her there. He was too disoriented that even after the quickie with Kate he never bothered to look for her.
Aiden stepped into her space and clung his palm to her right cheek, staring into the depth of her eyes. God, his touch sent a shocking voltage through her. Her inner body warmed.
“About last night…I’m sorry, I was confused about something…so…”
He trailed off. He was not confused about anything other than the familiarity he feels whenever he's shaft-deep inside Kate.
And it’s a thought he wouldn’t love to share because he loved the feeling too much.
“I’m sorry, Lisa.” He snapped. He tried to pull his hand away but Lisa caught him.
“Kate went violent on me again today.” She turned the side of her face which she nurtured well as an evidence against Kate. “Aiden she knows what she’s doing. That girl is only pretending to be good.”
“Stop…” He ground out. He can’t believe that. He tried to pull away again but Lisa held him. “Believe me, AD.” The urgency in her voice had Aiden reeling back. “She…she threatened my life and my reputation and you know what that means, right?”
“Aiden, Kate locked me up in the restroom on the very first day she came for interview in Brazzers. That shows how much violent she is.” She effused, lowering her head.
“Kate can never do that, Lisa. You’re wrong about that.”
“I know you’ve lost all trust in me but let me remind you the glory that was us…together. Aiden I won’t deny it again but I love you and Alex. I love you so much, it hurts. Please, let me prove to you what I’m capable of.”
“And what will you do…”
“Anything…please…” She implored, looking him hard in the eyes.
Aiden was quiet, thinking about her words. Can Kate be what Lisa said?
Why would she lock Lisa in a restroom?
Aidan shook his head, not making sense of this shit…
But as he tried his raise his head, Lisa’s lips found its way to his. She fussed her lips over his, trying to prove her worth.
Aiden momentarily stiffened, before his senses wind its way back into his mind and he pulled away.
However, at the corner of the hallway, Mira who was coming out of a filming room where she housed her surprise for Lisa, saw what was happening.
She…saw Lisa begging Aiden. Instead of being with her.
Mira didn’t know when tears began to leave her eyes, watching as Lisa fused her lips on Aiden. The lips that was supposed to paint all parts of her skin with kisses.
Lisa… she sighed, swiped at the tears working its way down her cheeks and splashing onto her chest.
Just when she was about to run away, Lisa’s periphery caught sight of her. She didn’t feel guilty because…Mira’s just a sex partner. Not the person she wanted heart, body and soul.
“I’ve to go, Lisa.” Aiden murmured and shoulder passed her into the elevator.
Lisa stood there, hands furling in anger.
God….she’s bidding her time, just soon. Her challenge will be executed and the sex gods will remember how they were together.
Sighing, she strutted down the hallway to the filming room Mira escaped in. Pushing the door open, she saw the balloons dangling from the ceiling, the cake and the gifts nestled on the bed.
“Mira…how did you know today was my birthday?” She rasped, a smile tearing her lips apart.
But then she heard the sobs coming from the bathroom, then she snaked inside.
There stood Mira before the mirror, wiping her reddish eyes with paper napkin.
“Mira, what happened?” Lisa rushed over, fussing over Mira’s wrecking shoulders.
“Get away from me…” Mira slapped her Lisa’s hands away from her body with brute force.
Surprised, she asked. “Why, Mira?”
Oh, before her answer came, Lisa already knew why.
“Mira I told you I love them and I can’t help it.”
“But I love you!”
Mira's words had Lisa snapping her head back. She doesn’t know what to do so she just stared.
“I love you yet you keep ignoring me. You just use me as your fuck buddy isn’t it?”
Silence. Teeth grounding together and its sound echoed off the walls.
“You keep chasing men that wants you not. Chasing people that can never love you.”
“Don’t you there say that.” Lisa snapped.
“What will you do? Pursue me out of Brazzers, huh?”
Feeling the urge to silence her, Lisa stepped into her space and caged Mira’s mouth with hers, her lips holding Mira’s like a vise.
But Mira was smart enough to push her away. It’s time she ended this rubbish.
“Listen Lisa. It’s either you choose the person that loves you or you choose the person you love. It’s your decision to make. Stop venting your sexual urges on me. I can’t stomach it again.” At that, Mira left, clashing her shoulders with Lisa’s.
Lisa balled her fists, staring after Mira yet she blamed Kate.
It’s all because of her! Now she’s found in a tight spot.
Choosing Mira or choosing the sex gods?
However, Lisa would always choose who her heart beats for.
The sex gods.
She inhaled, counting down to the days of the challenge.
