His Private Property

1

I woke up excited about my first project as an official event planner at lovecon. I started to get ready as I didn’t have much time until I have to present the final look of the hall that I had been working for the whole night. My one-bedroom apartment was looking like a dump as I didn’t have much time to settle in. it had been a couple of weeks when I moved in this apartment as it was quite close to my workplace and it was quite far away from my father’s home in which I had been living for the past couple of months and the moment I got the job I started looking for a simple yet cheap apartment because I was frustrated from all the stink of alcohol in the house. I mostly stayed in my room and always locked as it was not safe for me in that home as my mother had always told me from the day my father’s friend tried to rape my mother she had always tried to protect me and that day was no different as the man came in my room to rape me and my mother was just trying to save me. He would have raped her if our neighbors wouldn’t have called the police but in the end, my mother was badly injured for which I always blamed myself. The moment I got the apartment I practically ran from my home to get away from all the bad memories that haunted me in that home.

I had been working all day and was exhausted from the tension that was piling up in my mind. I had been working hard for this job but now as I have got it I don’t know what’s going to happen next. A hand touched my shoulder and I jerked back to the reality “Neha are you alright?” I looked into the concerned eyes of Josh as he tried to smooth away the wrinkles on my forehead and nodded in response. He had been a great sport since the beginning. A year ago I graduated and it was my lifelong dream to become an event planner my mother had always been a great support to me as she had fought hard for me and worked harder so that I would achieve my dream and would live a life with a bright future ahead as she was not able to have any one of that. My mother suffered a lot as my father was a junky and always beat her to get any or all the money that she got but with the passage of time, my mother started to save as much money as she can for me she didn’t want me to suffer and made sure that I had an easy flow of money. She made sure that I spent as little time as possible in the hell hole that was my home. My father always has many men in the home gambling and drinking which always made me sick to the bones whenever my mother wanted to meet me. It would be someplace outside or when my father was not home. When my mother died last year I was devastated as I was not able to do anything for her and she also wasn’t able to see me fulfilling my dream but now as I stand in the hall of my first project I thank my mother for every single step that I take to complete it. I had always admired the people having happy lives and away from the brutality that my mother and I had endured and now as I decorate this hall for a very pretty couple I feel proud of myself. I started working at a love cons firm a month ago and after the trial was over I got my fort project. The time was getting close and I was looking at the final details for the wedding. I had been so excited about the project but now as the time is coming, a close bundle of nerves in my stomach is getting bigger and bigger. After the final checking, the guest started to arrive and I was twitching in my place as I saw their eyes roaming around the hall. Josh came to buy my side and put his hand on my lower back. His gesture gave me chills down the spine and I looked at him with confusion in my eyes. From the day I started working in lovecon Josh had been very frank to me and we got close very quickly but as the time passed his interaction with me changed and he started to flirt with me from time to time. At first, I just ignored it but he was persistent and always came by my side. And now as I looked at him with confusion in my eyes he just smiled at me and pushed me closer to him. Due to my fathers, I have never had a boyfriend and neither did I want one as I had my troubles going on in life and I didn’t want any distraction for me to achieve the dream for which my mother had lost her life-fighting. But know as I look at myself and see a girl with no one as her family I started thinking about Josh as someone who would care for me as their family butterflies started to fly in my belly and the giddy feelings made me comfortable in his embrace and he also noticed the change in my demeanor as he looked at me and smiled from ear to ear. The light in his eyes made me melt a little more in his arms and we looked like a couple from the movies. We walked around in the hall holding hands to check if everything was alright and did anything needed our attention. I was getting used to holding Josh’s hand and he also didn’t complain about that. We looked like the wedding ceremony began to move on and as the couple started to take their marriage vows. Everyone was in tears after they took their vows and when the priest told them to kiss the kiss got many aww and hooting from the guests. Everyone was enjoying themselves and so were me and Josh as the evening moved on we became more and more comfortable with the fact that we both had started dating on the day of my first project and on the way most people haven’t thought about. While moving around in the hall I felt as if someone was looking at me but when I looked around I was not able to see anyone suspicious so I ignored the feeling as I thought that the way I was reacting with Josh all of a sudden anyone could be looking at me. I got back into work. The ceremony was about to end and it was getting quite dark outside. The thought of going to my home late at night gave me chills but I composed myself as it is New York City it does not sleep so it would not be a problem for her. The reception ceremony started and everyone started to dance as the first dance of the bride and groom was done. I was standing by the bar as I saw the happy couples smiling and dancing on the large dance floor. Everyone was happy with all the decoration and food and their chattering about it was like sound to my ears. It had been a while when I had been so happy as my life had gone through many ups and downs. A hand from nowhere came on my lower back and startled me from my deep thoughts. When I looked up Josh was looking at me with so much affection in his eyes “Can I have this dance with you” he said in a slow sexy voice of his and as I smiled he took the clue and moved us both to the dance floor and didn’t let me go as if he was afraid that I would run away. On the dance floor, the song was changing, and “You are the reason” from “Calum Scott” blasted through the speakers. Josh pulled me close with his one hand on my lower back and the other one holding my hand and we both started to sway on the sound of the song. “You like the song,” Josh said coming close to my ear, and as he said that chills started to move down from the place where his lips barely touched my skin and pressed more it is a body as an indication of yes. We danced for a while until the song was over. I still felt eyes on me but was not able to pinpoint anyone so I just ignored the feeling. These feelings started when I was about fourteen and one of my father’s friends was looking at me. I felt the sensation but was not able to know what it was until I looked up and saw him looking at my ass from the cabinet mirror. I was disgusted to the core by the way he was looking at me and went straight to my room and puked all my guts out in the bathroom. Every time I get these feelings his disgusting face comes to my mind and it sickens me to the bone and I have never ignored these feelings but today as the consequences have changed a little and I had someone to protect me just in case I let those feelings go. The ceremony was coming to an end and everyone had started to leave. We had to stay until the ceremony ended just for some legal purposes. When it was time for the bride and groom to leave we got our clue and started to leave. I was in a hurry as I didn’t want it to get any darker as I had to walk to my home. I left the building a few minutes after everyone had left. I started walking out of the parking lot and towards the gates. I had walked a few blocks from the building when a car stopped by me. I was startled as the car was all black and due to its tinted windows, I was not able to see who was sitting in it when the window to the passenger seat rolled down and Josh’s face came into the view. He had a worried look in his eyes “Where do you think you are going dressed like this at this time of night and alone” he had wrinkles on his forehead as he was saying that and a hint of anger was dripping from every word. He gestured to me to sit in the car but I didn’t want him to see the place where I live as it was not quite presentable. “I was just going home. It’s just a few blocks from here so you don’t have to worry about me. I am a big girl.” I was just blabbering out things to make excuses so that he won’t force me to come with him but he didn’t buy any of my excuses and got out of the car and opened the passenger door for me and pushed me in the car. Then he got in the car and started to drive. His car was quite comfortable and after a while, he put his hand on my thigh and the chills started again. I didn’t know what was happening to me but I was trying to enjoy it as much as I could. Josh asked me for directions to my home and I told him. When he stopped in front of my apartment building we just sat there looking at each other as if waiting for something to happen but after some moments of awkwardness I spoke “I better be going” with that I stepped out of the car and stood on the carb and while I was thinking that he would go he stepped out of the car and with few big strides he came in front of me and while I was registering his moments he crashed his lips on mine. At first, I was enjoying the kiss. He started to move his hand under my dress and upward. I put my hand on him to stop him but he was in no mood of stopping. At that moment I realized the smell of alcohol coming from him. His toughness was hitting my mouth in forced moments to get access to my mouth. I was trying to move away from him but he had his hand firmly on the back of my head so that I won’t be able to move. He again started to move his hand up towards the center of my legs. His rough hand was scratching and bruising my legs. I was sure that he was going to get what he wanted as I was getting exhausted with the fighting. Tears were burning in my eyes the moments from my past were playing in front of my eyes and the hurt and disgust were making me sick. He pushed me against his car, never leaving my head. I tried to scream but my screams were muffled by his lips. He found my panty lining and started pulling it down. I started to fight again by pushing him away and punching him on his chest but he didn’t budge even an inch.

While he was trying to get his fingers inside my p***y out of the blue a hand came and the next second he was off of me and laying on the ground. A man with a dark suit was standing in front of him. When he came into light the first thing that I saw was the anger that was burning in his eyes. His blue-grey eyes were throwing daggers on Josh but when his eyes landed on me they became soft and filled with concern and worry. He was quite built-up and his abs were visible through the sheer fabric of his white shirt. His jaw was clenched with anger another man came behind him and picked up Josh and threw him in his car without wasting any second Josh sped away. I was still staring in the man’s eyes. He moved his eyes from my face and on my hairs and with one big stride he came in front of me. His mouth came close to my ear and his lips lightly brushed my ears “see you soon baby girl” his spicy scent was making me dizzy as his body was so close to me. With that, he looked at me with a smirk on his face and confidence in his eyes and went back. I stood there on the carb thinking about what had happened to me. Then I looked down at my dress which was moved upward exposing my thighs. I quickly smoothed my dress down and ran towards my apartment building. I went into my apartment and locked the door. I was devastated at what Josh had done and the stranger who had saved me. My day had turned from excitement into hurt and pain. I took off my clothes and went straight to my bathroom to get a shower as I was not able to digest the disgusting feeling of Josh’s hand on me. I rubbed and scrubbed my body hard until I was satisfied. I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me. I looked at my ringing phone and saw Josh’s name on it and turned my phone off. I wore a tank top with shorts and went to bed as I wanted this day to over as quickly as it can. When I laid on the bed the only face that came to my mind was the face of the stranger that saved me. His eyes were looking at me with such intensity that I thought that he would look straight to my soul. The giddy feeling that I got in my stomach when his scent entered my nostrils and when his lips lightly brushed my ears was something that I didn’t even feel while getting comfortable with Josh. With these thoughts, I went into deep slumbers of sleep when a banging sound woke me up to the darkness.
