Rima’s POV
Tears began to pool in my eyes, born from the profound sincerity of his confession. My body was still humming, a residual echo of what had transpired just moments ago.
The notion of him spanking me had never crossed my mind before, it was a boundary I had vowed never to cross again. Yet, when it happened... it felt right. It sparked an unexpected surge of desire within me. And it was all because of him, because of Jacob. With him, I felt a safety I hadn't felt before, a certainty that a simple, firm "stop" from me would have been enough to halt him, despite his anger.
And when he took control, thrusting into me from behind, his dominance over my body was mind-blowing, earth-shattering.
"You're ogling" Jacob teased, his voice filled with amusement. I had spent the last few minutes drinking in his handsome features, marveling at how much I had missed them.
"I can't help it. I was on the brink of madness, thinking I might never see yo

Rima’s POVAs I walked into the bustling café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled my senses. I glanced around, searching for a quiet corner to focus on my job search. I had just moved to the city two weeks ago, leaving behind a life that was no longer mine, a woman who died tragically but found her peace and got away from a miserable existence filled with pain and suffering, seeking new opportunities in this unknown place. My name is Maria…. No wait.. Sorry.. My name is Rima Karam, and this was the beginning of my journey to reinvent myself.I finally found a small table by the window and settled down, pulling out my laptop and a stack of resumes. It was the last day of the weekend and the café was filled with a lot of people chattering and laughing without a care in the world and I couldn’t help but envy that. As I started browsing through job postings, my eyes were drawn to a man sitting a few tables away. He was tall and striking, exuding an air of authority that demande
Rima’s POVWith my things packed in two suitcases in the trunk of Mr. Snow’s car, we headed to his home. We didn’t exchange a lot of words because he was busy on his phone concentrating on whatever was displayed on it. After a few minutes, my phone rang inside my bag. I took it out and looked at the name displayed on the screen, ‘Tony’. It was the person I owed my new life to, the only person I could trust to keep me safe. I glanced up at Mr. Snow, asking cautiously “Can I answer?” He waved his hand and said casually "Of course” before he looked away, granting me permission. I knew I could talk freely with Mr. Snow and Travis listening in the car because the whole content of my conversation was going to be spoken completely in Arabic; my native language, which they wouldn’t understand a word of. Tony’s deep voice sounded from my phone, his tone soothing and fatherly; momentarily making me think of the real cruel father I have, the one who was the main reason I ended up he
Jacob's POVI stood by the window of my office, gazing at the bustling cityscape of Toronto. For some reason, I couldn't shake the memories of my first meeting with my new assistant Rima yesterday and the bustling café filled with strangers. It was strange – I never paid much attention to the women around me, having built a fortress around my heart. I have always preferred fleeting one night stands over relationships, knowing that no woman would ever put up with my relentless work schedule and inability to take a day off, even on weekends.That fateful day, I was supposed to be working. But, frustrated by the lack of an assistant, I decided to take a break at the café for a change of scenery. I planned to return home and continue working, but as soon as I saw her, my focus shifted. I couldn't help but observe every little detail about her. Her delicate beauty stood out to me, and although she might not meet the standards of the modeling world, there was an allure to her that surpass
Jacob's POVWe were working late tonight; Rima was at my home office, and we had been at it for three hours now, preparing for a new campaign. I could have asked one of my marketing team to work on it, but it was a charitable event that I wanted to oversee for myself. This client was the first I ever landed when I started the company, and for some reason, I wanted Rima to be the one working with me on it and not any of the marketing team members.Despite not having much knowledge yet, I was determined to hear her inputs and ask her questions. At first, she was a little hesitant to say what was on her mind. I could understand that she knew she was out of her element and was afraid to say something that would make me feel like I made a mistake by hiring her. She didn't have the depth of knowledge I was looking for, but I encouraged her anyway. I knew she would get there because she had determination, and it was clear as crystal in her eyes. That's also part of the reason why I was inv
Jacob’s POVA wave of unease washed over me the next morning when Rima didn't answer her phone. Yesterday, she had been eager to meet up and head to the firm together for her first day. She had picked up the phone almost immediately, but now, after two disconnected calls, there was no response.I wondered if she had forgotten to take her phone off silent and overslept. I was already preparing a lecture for her on punctuality when I left my apartment with a tense expression. As usual, Travis was by the door, ready to take my laptop bag "Good morning, Mr. Snow" he greeted cheerfully.I gave a terse nod, opening my front door before he could reach it and headed straight to Rima's apartment; which was directly on the right side of mine. Sensing my foul mood, Travis hesitantly asked "Is everything okay, Mr. Snow?"My frustration grew when Rima didn't answer her doorbell after a full minute "No, most certainly not" I muttered, pulling out my phone to call her again. I could faintly hear
Rima’s POVA war. There was a raging war between my head and my heart.They never got along to begin with; they always fought each other. And I was always determined to go with my heart until my heart literally led me to my death. That’s when I decided to never ever ever listen to it again.He was being kind and warm despite my rudeness, my shouting, my refusal to share and my lies; which he so obviously saw right through. He was still wiping away my tear. I had fought so hard not to let it fall in front of him. His face was so gentle, so understanding.My heart was screaming at me to open up to him and telling me I can completely trust this man and that I wouldn’t regret it like the last time. It gave me the exact same advice when it was George standing in front of me and look what happened to me because of it!He said we share a connection, an impossible one that shouldn’t even exist because logically we only j
