One Night With Mr Braxton

Emma was entranced. Her eyes were trained on the activity going on before her and she didn’t know how to feel. What could she say to this?

She’d been standing by the door for sometime now and there was still no sign of stopping or realization about her presence from the copulating duo before her.

Wasn’t he engaged to Talia? How could he do this great wickedness towards her as his proposed wife? At that moment, things became clearer to her. Emma, in those few seconds of silence, understood that nothing could keep a man who didn’t want to be kept.

All the while, a part of her was brewing thoughts of what she might have done wrong to push him into the hands of Talia, if she did something wrong during their relationship that made him give up on what they had.

She had never seen things from the perspective of one looking in. She’d never seen the fact that he wasn’t the man she’d hoped for him to be. He wasn’t a one-woman man. He didn’t do commitments. That fact was now clear as day.

It didn’t matter if she was beautiful or not, neither was it because she was present or not. It was just a choice. His choice to be a man slut, cheat and betrayer.

Every emotion she previously nursed for him was crushed beyond recognition. The man she Idolized above every other had suddenly been unraveled for who he was.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

The dream she had the night before was now playing before her eyes. Only that this time around, it wasn’t Talia and she wasn’t still in love with him. If there was anything she felt for him at the moment, it was resentment. Deep resentment for having wasted her time, love and affection on him. She wanted her years back.

She thought back on the gloating countenance of Talia on the night of their engagement and she could only shake her head in pity. Just like her, Talia had been roped into believing in this scumbag of a man.

Even worse was the fact that she was even engaged to him. As she watched them continue in ignorance of her presence, she couldn’t help but think of how ill-fated her step sister would be if she got married to him. They weren’t even married and he was already having extra curricular activities behind her.

” Who are you?! ” A feminine voice screeched and immediately covered her naked body.

Emma scoffed at the reaction of Colton and his red-headed woman. It was about time!

” What are you doing here, Emma? Get out! ” Colton bellowed, trying to get his thoughts together. He had been at the verge of ecstasy before his red flavour of the day scampered away from him.

” Don’t mention my name with that dirty mouth of yours! We need to talk now. Don’t even think about keeping me waiting! ”

Emma headed back to the living space and contemplated having a seat on the couch. Only heaven’s knew the atrocities that had been carried out on the cushions of the apartment. It suddenly made sense, the reason he was so defiant and determined to get himself a condo.

Previously, Emma was deceived into believing it was a spot for them to meet. A secret spot for their hang out due to the nature of their families. It took a while for her to be convinced but after he went the mile and got her a condo for keeping her personal designs, she was sold out.

Meanwhile, it was a public hotspot. The little slip ups she’d seen and was made to believe was nothing, suddenly started coming together. Of course she was a fool. Over and over again, she beat herself up for being ridiculously stupid.

Today was the end though. She was done being stupid. She was done being fooled and made to feel bad about it.

” Hey! Ann! Come-on just wait a little! It isn’t what you”

Bang!

A fully dressed red haired woman exited the apartment with an ear splitting bang. It was obvious she was very angry. seeing how Colton desperately tried to get her back, Emma couldn’t help but feel for her.

Who knew? She may have been deceived into sleeping with him. Colton was one hell of a game player.

” What are you doing here, Emma?” A bare Chested Colton asked with his fingers on the bridge of his nose. No doubt, trying to reel in the anger and frustration of not having his way.

Emma was unbothered. ” I needed you to explain to me what went wrong with us. But I already got my answer. The most important question is why Talia has some of my designs. Did you sell me out?”

Somehow, Emma managed to maintain her cool, waiting for some sort of explanation . In fact, she was looking forward to hearing his excuse this time around. She was so used to his bullshitting his way out of situations like this.

This time around, she was ready. He wasn’t going to get out of it that easily. She wouldn’t let him.

” Of course I didn’t, darling. How could you even think that? I know it might not seem like it but trust me there’s a logical explanation for this. All of it.”

It didn’t take a soothsayer for her to understand what he meant by – all of it; somehow she managed to witness two konk and physical displays of his true nature.

” Humour me. What explanation do you have for getting engaged to my step sister? What logical explanation is behind this foolery I just witnessed? What explanation is there for my designs suddenly being incorporated into a live sample for your fiance’s new collection?! ”

” Calm down. I know you are upset. Just calm down a little and listen to me. That was a mistake. One that wouldn’t repeat itself so for heaven’s sake, please keep this between us… okay? ”

Colton was packing and using everything at his disposal in order to successfully persuade Emma. He knew he was a beautiful man; one of the reasons women fell at his feet. Including Emma.

He was usually one who discarded his women after having his fun with them and saw no need whatsoever to continue meeting them. He was a hit and run kind of partner but after meeting Emma, he was reluctant to part ways with her.

He enjoyed the attention and love he garnered from her and when she refused to give in to having carnal knowledge of her, it extended his stay with her. He was of the belief that if he persevered some more, then, maybe, he’d finally have her in the way he wanted.

But of course he had needs which needed to be met and sought it from the willing women who were desperate to provide it. He decided it was best she stayed by his side until she was properly nurtured and finally ready to be taken but weeks turned into months and months, years.

She was overtime becoming tedious to him and he tried his best to keep her aside and did all sorts of things but she just wasn’t moving and like a homeless puppy stuck to his side.

” What are y-you trying to do?” Emma said as she noticed his advances towards her.

” Listen. I know you’re angry. But I have needs. I’m a man, a full blooded man who is at his prime. I know I’ve neglected you but I’m ready to rectify all that. Just promise that Talia wouldn’t know and I’m all yours.”

Colton brushed past Emma’s ears, putting to play every skill he had obtained from his years of being a player. He knew Emma held a torch for him but was being too modest. Maybe it took her seeing him in action to finally give in to him. Whichever it was, he was ready to take what he could.

” Are you crazy? What on earth is wrong with you? What do you take me for? You must be mad to think I will give in to your tricks! How foolish do you think I am?”

Colton retracted his hand as one burned by a blazing hot kettle. He had never seen her with such blazing eyes. Was it jealousy? Did she feel hurt from seeing him with another woman?

” Okay.. I’m sorry. I know I hurt you but please forgive me. We have a good thing going on here. Don’t ruin it with anger and just come to me, I promise you won’t regret it.” He said with a grin.

A grin that Emma deemed mocking.

” And then what? You are an engaged man Colton! If you don’t respect me as a person, you should at least respect your fiance!”

” No need to shout. That’s besides the point. Talia happened so quickly… I can’t even explain. Just give me some time okay, nothing’s changed. Come to me.”

” I don’t even know why I bothered engaging in this stupidity. Give me the keys to my studio.” She demanded.
