HIS SWEET REVENGE

Celine’s POV

I stand in front of the mirror, admiring the dress glued to my body with a smile on my face.

Camilla and I had gone shopping and we were about to buy the remaining things left to make Jason’s day tomorrow memorable. I also got a suit for Bryan as an appreciation for trusting me once in his life.

When he asked me that silly question, I was shocked and I ran away in fear. But I heard his laughter as my heart kept thumping wildly in my chest. He must have thought that I was gone already. I heard him laughing and I know he asked me that question on purpose.

He had given Camilla his credit card to give to me and I was surprised. This is why I bought him something too even though the money is his but I went through the stress to find him something good.

I was truly scared when he asked me to bathe him. How could an adult ask me such a thing when he isn’t a baby like Jason?

But after hearing him laugh, I knew that he was daring me and I wanted to take the challenge. But I couldn’t just summon up the courage.

I am silently getting myself prepared to follow his mother’s advice which was I asked him to give me some money to shop. I want to change my dressing like she suggested and also my nightwear too and I will begin to launch these new dresses I got starting tomorrow which is my son’s special day.

His question just keeps coming to my head and it makes me feel like telling someone about it. If I tell Camilla and ask her what to do, she might just laugh it off like she did the other day.

Putting the dress down, the smile off my face, I turn to grab my phone. Tomorrow is Jason’s birthday and I need to tell his grandmother so she will be there.

I can’t wait to see the surprise on Jason’s face tomorrow. I doubt if he even knows that tomorrow is his birthday.

Camilla’s granddaughter came and Camilla asked her to keep Jason busy throughout our day so he won’t notice a thing. He might become suspicious if he sees me with the new dresses so I appreciate Camilla for that.

This has given me enough time to take a nap immediately after we came back from the shopping mall. I was damn tired when we came back and I went to bed straight away.

I woke up very early today because I didn’t want Bryan to stick to his threat of firing me if I was minutes late.

The phone rings for a while before she picks up the fifth ring. “Hello?”

“Aunt, it’s Celine”, I say to her, knowing that she doesn’t have my contact. I had hers before leaving here and I didn’t bother to change my contact after leaving. Maybe that was why Bryan was able to track me down.

Well, I didn’t intend to keep Jason away from him forever. I didn’t change my contact for a purpose.

“Celine?” Her voice booms into my ears. “How are you? Did it work?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She seems to be sure that it will work. I roll my eyes. This isn’t why I called.

“Well, I’m calling for something else”, I say to her and she murmurs under her breath in disappointment. “Tomorrow is Jason’s birthday and I would love you to be there.”

“Really?” She squeals in excitement and I nod, forgetting the fact that she can’t see me and we are just talking on the phone.

“Yes.”

“Uhuh”, she mumbles. “I wish I can come but I am now in San Francisco. I will let you know if I can come but if I can’t, I would love to see loads of pictures, please.”

I am not surprised that she is no longer in New York. I doubt if she even spent a day here. She has always been like that. She is either traveling around for a business meeting or accompanying her husband who is always on a plane to God-knows-where.

“Alright.”

“I’m so sorry”, she apologizes. “I will try and see what I can do, ok?”

“Ok”, I click my tongue and bite my lips, debating whether to tell her about what Bryan requested of me this morning.

“So tell me why haven’t you gotten to work yet? Are you still scared?” I imagined her peering down at me with a curious look on her face.

I release my lips. “Not really. I tried something today….”

“What?!” She exclaims in excitement.

With an embarrassed face, I answer. “I massaged him and made sure my boobs touched his back.”

“Woah!” She laughs deeply and I smile. “That is a great way to start. How did you manage to massage him?”

“He asked for it”, I answer. “He was complaining of aches but before I could suggest a massage, he asked for it.”

“Bryan asked for a massage?” She asks again as if to be sure I am telling the truth.

“Yes, he did. This will be the second time, though. I’m so sure the first time was on purpose.”

“Uhmm”, she hums, sounding like someone in deep thought.

I decide to tell her what he asked me this morning again. There is no use hiding it since she brought the idea and I have told her about the massage already.

“Something happened this morning too”, I remark, squeezing my eyes shut and opening them back almost immediately. I am honestly glad that we aren’t seeing each other. I will be red in the face with embarrassment if only she is here and I really do not know how I was able to summon up the courage to do what I did this morning to Bryan.

“What happened?” She asks sharply in anticipation.

“Bryan asked me to bathe him”, I reveal and she goes silent. I add. “He is doing this on purpose. He knows I won’t do it so he is trying to dare me to take up the challenge…”

“That sounds interesting, you know? Take the challenge and prove to him how strong you are. Let him feel the pain you have been feeling all along. Show him no mercy. Punish him sexually. Starve him…”

I am no longer listening because I shake my head at the last statement.

Starve him? I can’t do that. Bryan can survive without sex for years. How can I starve him?

I am still wondering if he will be moved to think of sex or be willing to have sex again. I don’t just know. I’m confused as hell.

“…. do it, Celine. You can do this, can’t you?”

“Yes”, I agree to it immediately without thinking.

“Good. I need to go now. I will call you tomorrow morning. My regards to the birthday boy”, she screams and the call gets disconnected.

Taking the phone off my ears, I expel a sigh, thinking over what she just said.

Should I give this a try? How will I make him regret this challenge? What should I do? What if I am unable to control my own emotions? What if I begin to tremble when I see his manhood?

Shit! I curse when something stirs in me.

No, I can’t do this!

Yes, you can, my subconscious remarks.

I pace the room with my hands on my waist. Bryan will be back from work already or probably on his way back.

I should go check if he is back. If he isn’t, I will come back to think it over carefully.

I saunter to the door and move out, before taking the staircase up towards Bryan’s room.

I can do this, I say to myself pushing my nervousness back. I need to show him how strong I can be. I need to show him the type of woman I am.

I get to the door and open it without knocking. If I am not nervous, I wouldn’t have opened the door without knocking because I know Bryan will scold me for doing that. But my anxiety has made me forget the rules and I want to get this all out.

Bryan is standing by the closet when I enter and he turns back slowly to see me come in, his brows furrowed and his hands on his long sleeves shirt.

It looks like he just came back and he is about to take a bath since he hasn’t peeled his clothes off yet.

This is a great opportunity. I only came to tell him I will do it and get to work tomorrow but from the look of things, now is a perfect time. Tomorrow might be too late and this courage will be gone before tomorrow.

“Why didn’t you knock? What are you doing here?” A frown replaces his expression when I am not saying anything, just staring at his cute face. The older version of my son.

“I will do it”, I utter firmly without wasting any more time.

He looks confused and snaps. “Do what?”

“What you asked me to do this morning. I will bathe you!” I finalize before walking toward him with confidence, with the sole aim of helping him to take his clothes off and take him to the bathroom the way I always do with Jason.

Bryan will regret daring me!
