Third Person
The following week went by in a flash for everyone, especially for the likes of Annika and Leon. When Leon notified Annika that he was returning to the Great Apple, Annika couldn’t contain her excitement, much to her father’s chagrin. Annika took it upon herself to go to the airport to welcome Leon home. Though her family tried to get her to stay home and have him come to her, she was adamant about going to the airport to fetch Leon herself.
As if that weren’t enough, Annika didn’t just go to the passenger pickup. She parked the car in the parking garage and walked into the airport to wait for him. She made her way to the private airstrip where his jet would be landing and waited patiently. Leon had given her a rough estimate of when he would be landing; as such, Annika was waiting anxiously for his arrival.
She constantly checked the time on her phone, and every minute that passed by felt like an hour. It had been a while since Annika felt so anxious about the arrival of another person. The last time she had these feelings was when she and Jeffrey were in the prime of their relationship after high school, and Jeffrey had gone on a retreat during his time in law school. Since then, Annika always waited for Jeffrey, which she now knew was a waste of her precious time, that she could no longer get back. But now, she would use that time on someone she felt deserved it – Leon.
After what felt like a lifetime, Annika saw Leon’s jet making its final descent onto the tarmac. Her heart started to race with anticipation. Her eyes followed the plane like a hawk stalking its prey, and when it came to its final stop, the cabin door opened, and the staircase descended. Toby was the first to emerge, and he noticed Annika immediately. He gave her a friendly and courteous smile and walked down. He waited at the bottom of the stairs, and immediately the man of the house made his appearance. Leon’s handsome face brought joy to Annika. Leon was surprised to see Annika waiting for him. He quickly came down the stairs and scooped her up in his arms. His sudden public display of affection had Annika squealing with delight as her arms instinctively wrapped around his neck. Their lips crash-landed on each other, and shared a searing and passionate kiss. One that had been long overdue.
“What are you doing here?” Leon finally asked as they reluctantly pulled away from each other, and he put her back on her two feet.
“I wanted to pick you up,” she replied with a smile.
“You do realize that my car is here at the airport, right?”
“So? Tell Toby to drive it back to your house or the office. You’re coming with me,” she said with finality. Leon smirked at her assertiveness and turned to face Toby, who had heard everything.
“Don’t worry, sir; I’ll make sure to return the car to the house before clocking out,” he said, immediately seeing Leon’s gaze. Leon nodded in confirmation and took Annika’s hand in his.
“Lead the way, Doc.” Annika smiled and waved ‘goodbye’ to Toby before she and Leon headed to where she was parked. When they arrived at her vehicle, Leon was shocked for a second time. “Wait, I don’t remember you driving a Urus,” he said as he gave her a side-eye.
“You’ve only seen me in my everyday car. I can’t have people see me driving this beast out in the open,” she replied and unlocked the doors.
“Does Hollands know you have this?” he asked as he entered the passenger seat.
“Of course not. He’s seen it around in the parking garage of the penthouse but has no idea that it belongs to me. I always parked it in a dark corner on one of the lower levels. I would move it every few days to make it appear like someone was leaving and coming back.”
“Doc, I have to admit, you’re a smart one.”
“Well, of course I am. I wouldn’t have been able to become a doctor if I wasn’t smart, Leon.”
“Touché.” Annika smiled and started the car. She pulled out of the garage quickly, but unbeknownst to her, someone was watching their every move, and the envy, hatred, and dismay in this person’s eyes could easily be seen from a mile away. Jeff’s eyes had to have been deceiving him. He couldn’t believe Annika had gone out of her way to pick up Leon from the airport. She even got out of the car to wait. She had never once done that for him. She would always pick him up at passenger pick-up. Her excuse was that paying for parking was a waste of money. He finally realized that was just a well-thought-out lie she told to hide the fact that she came from money. Jeff couldn’t stop the huff of discontent that came out of his mouth.
What was even more astonishing was Annika’s car right in front of him. A Lamborghini Urus. That car cost well over a quarter of a million dollars. Not only that, but he recognized the vehicle. It was one he had always seen. Never would he have guessed that car belonged to her in a million years. There were so many things to Annika that Jeff never even knew. It was almost as if he didn’t know this woman at all. Who was Annika Hiller, or this case, Annika Silverton. Had everything been a total front? Was anything he knew about her even the truth? At the rate he was collecting information, it seemed this woman was a complete and total stranger to him.
He put his camera down and started his vehicle to follow her. The last few days had been pretty dull since Annika never left the penthouse. He had seen her family members going in and out, as always, along with their team of lawyers. He couldn’t understand why they were going in and out every other day. How much planning were they doing? What were they planning in general? It was a simple divorce settlement. It wasn’t as if the evidence tampering and fraud case were directly tied to her, so why the hullabaloo?
He assumed she would take Leon to his residence but decided to follow them anyways. Jeff didn’t realize that he was being tailed himself, and by none other than Jorge. Jorge couldn’t believe his luck when he followed Hollands to the airport and saw that the prior D.A. of their great city was stalking Annika and Leon. It was fine if Jorge stalked Jeffrey since he was being paid to do so, and his P.I. license allowed him to get away with it. On the other hand, Jeff wasn’t even supposed to be leaving the confinement of his hotel room, and yet, here he was, out in the open.
Jorge quickly sent a text message to Leon, letting him know Jeff was following them. When Leon’s phone buzzed in his pocket, he saw the message from Jorge and furrowed his eyebrows. Annika suddenly saw his facial expression change and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Huh?”
“Your face did a complete 180 just now. Is everything okay?” Annika asked with concern.
“Yeah, I’m sorry, Doc. That was Jorge.”
“What did he say? Is it about Sadie?”
“No. It’s about Hollands.”
“Oh? What about him?”
“He’s following us,” Leon replied. Annika furrowed her brows at that.
“He’s what?”
“He’s tailing us,” Leon said again and turned around to see for himself. Sure enough, he spotted a dark sedan with tinted windows two cars behind them. “Baby, what kind of car does Hollands drive?”
“He drives a Benz. Why?”
“What color?”
“Black. Why?”
“Smart.”
“Huh?”
“He’s not driving his own car to follow us. He’s driving a common sedan with tinted windows, and it’s gold.” Annika peeked in the rearview mirror and spotted the gold sedan. The windshield was fully tinted, so the view of the driver was completely obstructed.
“Isn’t this fucker supposed to be on house arrest?” she questioned as she peered at the rearview mirror.
“He’s somehow circumvented the ankle bracelet, then. Don’t worry too much about it. He’s not stupid enough to do anything. It looks like he’s just tailing us, trying to keep an eye on you.”
“What do I do?”
“Leave him be. With Jorge following him and having evidence out and about when he’s not supposed to be, this will strengthen our cases against him.”
“Ugh, I wish he would just go away. I’m over him and his bullshit. I want to get this damn court over with and move on,” she grumbled and went about her merry way.
“Court will be here before you know it. And when it’s all said and done, we can move on with each other, hm?” Leon said smoothly as he put his hand on her thigh and gave it a slight squeeze. That gesture quickly took Annika’s mind off her lunatic stalker of an ex and brought forth the heat to her lower extremities.
“Leon, I’m driving,” she chastised and slapped his hand away. But that didn’t stop Leon whatsoever. That only intensified his need to conquer her.
“Doc, I suggest you put this thing in overdrive and get us to our destination. Otherwise, I’m going to make you pull over, and I’m going to finger you until you scream.” Annika didn’t have to be told twice. She floored it and got them the penthouse garage in record time. Her car was so fast that she lost Jeff in traffic. But based on her direction, he knew that she had gone to the penthouse. He made his way there, and while maneuvering through the many cars of Manhattan, Annika and Leon wasted no time. Leon picked her up from the driver’s seat and sat her on his lap.
Annika crashed her lips to his as she cupped his face, and he quickly made use of his belt and pants and pulled out the beast he called his c**k. One of his hands firmly grasped her waist while the other pushed her dress up and then her panties to the side, where he found her dripping with desire.
“Leon, please,” Annika begged as they brushed against each other. She didn’t have to beg him; he would gladly take her in the car. He used his free hand to line up his tip with her entrance, and she slowly lowered herself. “Oh, god,” she gasped at the feeling of his thickness entering her. This was precisely what she had wanted before she left Dallas the week before. And now that she was getting what she wanted, she wasn’t about to waste any time.
Once Leon was fully lodged inside Annika, he reached to the side of the seat and lowered it. He grabbed her hips and forced her to grind against him, creating the friction they both knew they needed. Annika’s hands were placed on this chest as she held herself up. She began bouncing up and down, moving in circular motions, grinding up and down, and then repeated everything.
“f**k, I’m going to c*m!” she exclaimed as she threw her head back. Leon reached up, grabbed her face, and pulled her down to kiss him as her climax hit her. As her o****m took force, Annika started to shake with pleasure and breathe heavily into their kiss. Once it subsided, she pulled away and caught her breath.
“You all right?” Leon asked her seeing her suddenly flushed.
“Mmhmmm,” she hummed and slowly moved her hips again.
“f**k, baby. Just like that,” Leon moaned from her sudden movement. “Argh, f**k me like me, Doc. Just like that doc.” Annika moaned, gasped, and panted as she started to move even faster with yearning. “s**t, you’re so tight!”
“Leon, I think I’m going to come again.”
“Come. Come all over my d**k, baby.” Leon grabbed her and forced her down to take every inch of him. Annika had never felt so full, and her eyes rolled to the back of her head as another o****m hit her. “Yes, that’s it. Oh, f**k.” Leon had never felt so euphoric during intercourse. He had his fair share of women, but s*x with Annika was nothing short of heavenly.
“Leon!”
“Keep going, Doc. Don’t stop. I’m going to come! f**k! I’m going to come!”
“Come for me, Leon. Come inside of me!” Leon jolted upright and started to give Annika everything he had. Although space in the car was limited, it didn’t stop them from enjoying each other to their full extent. It didn’t take much longer for Leon to spurt his seed inside of her and for Annika to spill her juices. Both of them collapsed in the passenger seat and caught their breaths. Once they calmed down, it dawned on them what they had just done, and they started to laugh. “Oh my god, I can’t believe we just did that,” she giggled as she lifted herself off him.
“Well, I guess we can say we broke in the Urus,” he chuckled. Annika laughed even harder. As the two of them were enjoying their post-coital bliss, Jeffrey, on the other hand, was boiling with rage. It didn’t take a genius to know what had happened in that car. The car bouncing was a clear indicator, and he couldn’t believe his eyes. Even though they were separated, he still thought Annika to be his wife, but it seemed that the same could not be said about Annika.
He watched as they both exited the car from the same side, and she quickly smoothed out her dress, and Leon adjusted his pants accordingly. Annika handed him a wet wipe from the glove compartment, and Leon cleaned himself up. Jeffrey could see both faces were flushed from the heat of their earlier actions, and every minute he watched them was another dagger stabbing him in the heart. Jeffrey felt as if he were in a nightmare and wanted nothing more than to wake up from it. He so badly wanted to go and confront the two adulterers, but he knew he couldn’t. If he showed himself, it wouldn’t be good for him. As such, he clenched his fists and endured it.
Annika and Leon made their way to the elevator, and Jeffrey watched with longing as the woman he had loved his whole life took another man into her home, their home. The one they once shared. He was more determined than ever to win Annika back and make sure no other man ever stepped foot into his house again.
“Annika, you’ll pay for your betrayal,” he gritted his teeth.
