"You’re right, it sounds a little pathetic, I guess I should agree to go on dates.I mean this here is only temporarily anyway."Zak nodded his head slowly.
"I'll fucking break every bone in your body if another fucker touches what’s mine...You hear me?Then when I'm through with you I'll start on your brother.In fact I think I'll have Caleb brought in here just to teach you a lesson.Ironic isn't it?The uneducated convict will teach the teacher a lesson."
Mariyah felt her face drain of color.She had hit a nerve with him and he was a scary man to cross.Mariyah’s hands started to shiver, she tried to hide it but it was too obvious to conceal.
"No, I didn't mean it, I was...I don't know why I said that, it's not true."He was staring her down.
"Understand this Mariyah, I don't do jealousy well, I find it so much easier to eliminate the competition, it works better in my favor.Be careful baby, if you’re looking for trouble be prepared for it, you surely are bound to find it with me."Mariyah was struggling hard not to cry
"I'm sorry, I say and do stupid things sometimes.I'm sorry."
Zak stood and moved to the door, they had only been in for only twenty minutes, he banged on the door and the guard entered.
"You ready boss?"
"Next Saturday Mariyah and I don't want any shit on your face."She stood there dumbly nodding her head.Mariyah was grateful he let her go early.
"Thank you."She said to his back, she watched him stiffened before he left.Another eventful visit with Mr Michaels.Another week without any sex...
CHAPTER 4
The meeting went smoothly, Mariyah thankfully made it on time, did her presentation, was applauded and praised for her hard work.She was having some refreshments with her peers when Gareth another year one teacher approached her."Great speech."She smiled up at him, he was so very attractive.
"Thanks, I was so nervous that I would screw up the speech, I hate public speaking."He gave her a drop-dead gorgeous smile.
"Well you did great.Hey, how bout dinner tomorrow night?"Great, she had been single for almost two years and now that a big ox of a criminal had her in his sights did somebody want to ask her out.
"That's real sweet Gareth but I'm kinda in a relationship at the moment."
"Say no more I understand.Let me get you a drink."
All in all it was such a nice afternoon.
Caleb called again that evening and this time practically begging for her to visit him."I don't understand Mari, you have been pestering me for a year to come visit, now that I've agreed and don't sense any threat you refuse to come.What gives?"She would go see Caleb, she wanted information on Zak anyway and she missed her brother.
"Ok Caleb, I'll come around on visitation day, I miss you too, it's just work is very demanding."
Mariyah heated herself some dinner and ate alone once she was done from the phone call.Ate alone like she had been doing for a year.Life was a bitch.Her thoughts always drifted back to Zak, why wasn't he initiating the sex?Did he not find her attractive anymore?Maybe he just wanted a companion somebody to talk to who wasn't behind bars.
When it came to Zak Michaels she always came up short.No idea whatsoever about his reasoning.Still she was sort of hoping that he would touch her, she just wanted to feel that explosion that she only ever felt with him.Maybe dressing a little sexier was on the agenda...Mariyah’s more adventurous side argued that if she had to do the time, she might as well get mind blowing orgasms out of it.
Mariyah sat nervously in the waiting room waiting for Caleb, it was a Wednesday and she had come straight from work.As soon as Caleb walked in she ran into his arms, "No physical contact with the prisoner."She looked at the officer who had escorted her numerous times to see Zak
"Really, no physical contact?You might want to reconsider that..."She replied tartly.
"Mariyah what's wrong with you?You can't speak to the guards like that."Don't forget yourself Mariyah...
"Whatever, let's sit.Can I help you?"She spoke to the guard who raised his eyebrows and backed away giving them some privacy.
"What the hell Mariyah?Are you trying to send me to isolation?What's gotten in you?"
"Nothing I'm sorry, it's just they piss me off sometimes.They power trip it."She had to calm down.It was so daunting being here in fear of running into Zak.
"Anyway tell me how is everything?Are you okay?What's been going down?Talk to me woman I'm starved for information."
"Work, work and more work.Valeria said your visit was nice, how did that go?"
"I guess it went well, we couldn't really talk much and I couldn't show her too much affection.All in all it's actually been very peaceful for me in here.Lady Luck has shined on me and let them think I'm invisible.Go figure?"Mariyah nodded her head, she needed to approach this topic without Caleb suspecting a thing
