A Symphony of Sorrow

Chapter 16 – A time to fight

                       

Several months have passed since Susan, Alex and Aimee, have moved into their new home.  It is night outside and the temperature is cold, with ice and snow covering the fields surrounding the house.  The season is winter, and you wouldn’t half know it.  Inside the house; Susan is in the gym on a large treadmill, running fast with sweat dripping from her face onto her tight white vest and leggings.  Alex is also in the gym, pounding away at a 6 foot punch bag; his strikes rattling the chains to a near breaking point.  The sound of dance music can be heard throughout the halls of the large house with only the noise from Alex’s kicks and punches cutting through the music.  Susan reaches forward to the controls on the treadmill and slowly increases the speed to a higher setting; her breathing intensifies as she pushes her body to its limits.  Alex begins to remember how Peter invaded Susan’s home, attacking his wife and daughter; his most likely intention; causing them both serious injury or death.  Alex is angry and his power is increasing; every hit on the bag; is a punch into Peter’s body and head; his intention, the total destruction of his enemy, leaving nothing but a pile of human remains.  Susan starts to feel a cramp in her side and decides to quickly bring the running machine to a full stop, allowing her to step off, where she bends forward with her hands on her hips; breathless, sweating and burned out.  Alex continues to hit the bag, his punches getting stronger and stronger as he unleashes a massive sound of pain from the bottom of his lungs.  Susan looks round as Alex throws three upper left hooks and then one massive lower strike with his right hand, severing the chains and sending the bag flying across the gym onto a pile of free weights.  Susan looks stunned ‘Jesus Alex, are you ok?’  Alex looking flushed ‘I’m fine.....just wanted to see how much force I could put into this!’  Susan looks at Alex with concern written all over her face ‘I’m starting to get that worried feeling again!’  Alex lifts a towel from a hook on the wall and wipes the sweat from his face and shoulders ‘Do you know what Susan.....I don’t think I have any cut off where my strength is concerned!’  Susan walks over to him, placing her hands on his face ‘What do you mean....do you mean that you could have hit that punch bag even harder?’  Alex looks confused ‘I think so.....let me demonstrate!’  Alex holds out his right arm at shoulder level with his bicep pointed upwards ‘hold onto my arm with both hands!’  Susan reaches for Alex’s arm, gripping it with both hands ‘ok, now what?’  Alex without effort; lifts Susan several feet from the ground ‘Hold on tight!’   Susan giggles ‘Holy shit....how is this possible?’  Alex starts to walk around the gym with Susan hanging from his arm; never losing his breathe nor straining.  Susan trying not to laugh ‘this is amazing Alex....do I not feel heavy to you?’  Alex stops walking ‘I don’t feel anything when I lift you; that’s what worries me!’  Alex slowly lowers her back to earth. Susan stands silent for a moment; on her face; a look of excitement ‘Oh my god Alex, you could be a super hero!’  Alex smiles ‘there’s more!’  Susan giggles once more ‘what is it?’  Alex walks over to a tool box sitting in the corner; opens it and lifts out a craft knife.  Susan suddenly looking very concerned ‘Alex....what the hell is that for?’  Alex smiles ‘this next demonstration, is not going to be very pretty....so please be calm....I know what I’m doing!’  Susan moves closer to Alex ‘look....I believe you; you don’t need to hurt yourself...please!’  As the last of Susan’s words leave her mouth; Alex extends the blade from within the handle and then slices deep into his hand, causing a large jet of blood to shoot out from his flesh onto the floor beneath.  Susan screams ‘Alex....what have you done?’  Alex holding his hand in agony ‘look, look....its happening!’  Susan watches as the flesh on Alex’s hand, miraculously closes up the wound, leaving no scar or trace of injury.  Alex doesn’t know what to expect from Susan; after all, it is as strange a demonstration as they come.  Susan holding her hands over her mouth ‘you really are a miracle Alex....I don’t know what to say!’  Alex smiles ‘that’ll be a first!’

 

Later that night; Susan is putting Aimee to bed.  Aimee looks up at her mum ‘Mummy is Alex going to be my new Daddy?’  Susan smiles and then giggles ‘What made you think of that honey?’  Aimee looks down and then lifts her head again ‘I don’t know....he’s nice and he helps me draw pictures!’  Susan smiles whilst petting Aimee’s hair ‘Do you want him to be your new Daddy?’  Aimee nods her head.  Susan smiles once more ‘Well then....I’ll have to ask Alex if he’s ready to be a Daddy....I’d say he will be over the moon honey!’  Aimee smiles ‘ok Mummy....I’m going to go to sleep....night night!  Susan leans forward, kisses Aimee on her forehead and then tucks her into bed ‘night night honey!’  Susan gets up from the bed, turns off the light and closes the door over slightly, leaving some light coming through from the hallway.  Alex is sitting in the lounge with a large glass of Red wine in his hand when Susan walks through the door.  Alex turns to Susan ‘well...is the wee one away to bed then?’  Susan smiles ‘yes....oh also....she wants me to ask you if you want to be her new Daddy?’  Alex laughs ‘Seriously?’  Susan sits down, taking her wine glass from Alex’s hand ‘ah ha....that’s what she said.....what do you think?’  Alex looks shocked as he rubs his beard with his right hand ‘it would be an honour....I love her to bits!’  Susan smiles while reaching for Alex’s hand, taking it into hers.  Both Susan and Alex sit quietly for a few moments before Alex turns to Susan ‘I am over the moon Susan....honestly!’  Susan rests her head on Alex’s shoulder ‘I told her you would be!’  Alex rests his head back onto the cushion behind ‘you know what.....that kid never ceases to amaze me...the things that come out of her mouth sometimes!’  Susan smiles ‘I know....I never know what to expect next!’  Alex smiles and then turns his head so that he can make eye contact with Susan ‘Susan.....do you think we should give her a little brother or sister?’  Susan giggles ‘you would use any excuse to get into my panties!’  Alex grabs Susan rolling her on to her back while kissing her chest and neck ‘Is it really such a bad idea?’  Susan laughs ‘I wouldn’t have any objections sexy!’  Alex laughs, kisses Susan and says ‘a very wise man once said that the best thing about babies....is making them!’  Susan laughs ‘and there you have it....I knew that’s what you were at!’  Alex smiles; following with a long passionate kiss with Susan when suddenly they hear a breaking of glass at the back of the house.  Alex whispers ‘quickly....go to Aimee’s room and lock her door; do not come out no matter what you hear!’  Susan jumps to her feet ‘but Alex!’  Alex looking serious ‘just do it....go!’  Susan turns and runs out the door and up the stairs to Aimee’s room where she locks it, placing her back against it from the inside.  Alex takes off his shoes and then kills the lights.  In the darkness he can hear multiple voices coming from the kitchen.  Alex reaches into his pocket, taking out his mobile phone.  Alex uses the thumb print scanner on his phone to gain access to his music folder where he presses play causing Etta James’s ‘All I could do was cry’ to play out through all of the Bluetooth speakers mounted into the ceilings throughout the house.  In the kitchen; the intruders look puzzled as the music distracts them from any neighbouring sounds.  As the first of them leave the kitchen through the door into the front hallway; Alex appears from nowhere, lifting the intruder from the ground with his right hand while he punches him out cold with his left.  The remaining two intruders decide to turn and run as Alex throws the unconscious one onto them, knocking one of them to the ground while the other runs out of the door.  Alex moves in quickly and silences the intruder trapped under his colleague’s body with one hard punch.  Upstairs, Susan is talking to the Police informing them of their situation while Alex gives chase to the third man who is now running across the field behind the house in the hope of getting away.  Alex tears through the back garden at unimaginable speeds in pursuit of a man who is clearly no match for his speed or agility.  The man is panicked as he grows closer and closer to a parked van at the edge of the field while Alex narrows the gap by taking a massive leap from half way through the field so that he can land on top of the van causing the vehicle to shutter with the force of his impact.  The last intruder screams as Alex bellows ‘come here you?’

 

In the distance, the sound of Police sirens can be heard coming over the hills.  Back inside the house; Susan and Aimee are huddled together on the bed.  Downstairs;  the two intruders, one on top of the other are still unconscious and totally oblivious to the imminent Police arrival.  As the Police arrive at the house, rescuing Susan and Aimee while taking the criminals into custody; Susan is questioning the Police as to the whereabouts of Alex when Alex comes walking round the side of the house with an unconscious man slung over his shoulder.  Susan screams ‘Alex....thank god you’re alright!’  Alex smiles while handing the criminal over to the Police ‘I’m fine...honestly.....this jerk off thought that he was going to live to fight another day!’  Susan and Aimee run to Alex, throwing their arms around him; squeezing him tight.  Alex laughs ‘I’m ok....are you two ok?’  Susan checking Alex all over; ‘we’re fine thanks to you!’  Alex turns to the Police ‘I suppose you guys are going to need a statement?’  The Police spend around an hour with Alex, Susan and Aimee, taking statements before leaving to go about their business.  After they have left; Susan finds Alex in the dining room looking out across the fields ‘What are you thinking about Alex?’  Alex without turning says ‘I know now what it is I must do Susan!’  Susan looking puzzled ‘what?’  Alex turns to her with a look of absolute confidence ‘I must take the fight to these fucking predators and show them the true meaning of fear!’

A Symphony of Sorrow
Chapter 15 – Wealth

Susan and Alex are standing in a large hallway at the entrance of their new home.  The house is detached, white in colour with a centralised front door and windows on each side.  Susan looks up at the beautiful chandelier hanging above; light cascading down onto the shiny polished floor.  Everything in the house is white, sterile and clean apart from the stairs and banisters and doors, which display a wooden finish.  The house is beautiful and both Susan and Alex cannot believe their luck.  Parked outside, are their two brand new cars; a Black Range Rover Sport and a Blue BMW coupe.  Alex is a petrol head who likes a car with power.  Susan on the other hand liked the look of the car that she bought and didn’t care whether it was a crate on wheels or a flying machine; it wasn’t important to her.  Susan is wearing a tight red short bodycon dress, both figure hugging and revealing, with a pair of tight knee high black leather boots.  Alex cannot keep his eyes off her; she looks sexy as hell.  Susan turns left, walking through a large open plan room that leads into a massive kitchen and dining room; the room surrounded by glass.  Alex follows, his eyes drawn to her as she walks ahead of him.  In the centre of the kitchen, stands a large rectangular Island.  Susan approaches the island with her back to Alex, her hands sliding gracefully over the solid granite worktop.  Alex approaches her from behind ‘Do you know how sexy you are right now?’  Susan giggles ‘poor Alex, are you feeling turned on?’  Alex falls silent as he steps forward, placing his hands onto the bottom of Susan’s short dress.  Susan moans ‘so....what are you going to do to me then Alex?’  Alex smiles ‘I’m going to bend you over this Island and do very bad things to you!’  Susan giggles once more ‘what sort of bad things did you have in mind?’  Alex now sliding Susan’s dress up over her ass, exposing her white thong, ‘I’m going to put my tongue inside you....then I’ll gently tease your clit with my tongue while I place my fingers inside of you.  Susan starts to moan while Alex moves her thong to the side with his right hand while getting down on his knees.  Alex then quickly rams his tongue into her wet vagina, before moving up to her clitoris where he starts to lick, suck and play with it sending Susan into ecstasy.  Alex then places both the index and middle finger of his right hand deep into Susan’s vagina while still using his tongue to pleasure her.  Susan begins to jerk and twitch, feeling the orgasm building within her; every nerve ending firing all at once, causing her to creep closer to cumming.  Susan cries out ‘Oh god Alex.....I’m going to cum!’  Alex continues to pleasure her, as the orgasm becomes explosive, causing Susan’s breathing to become more and more urgent.  Suddenly Susan cries out ‘Alex, I’m cumming, I’m cumming, fuck me!’  Alex quickly rises to his feet while dropping his trousers and underwear to the floor as he reaches for Susan’s hair, pulling it so that her head moves back towards him.  Alex quickly thrusts his cock inside of her causing Susan to cry out ‘oh fuck Alex, that’s what I’m talking about....that’s it, fuck me hard.....don’t you stop until you cum!’  Alex pounds himself deeper and deeper into Susan’s vagina, sending her crazy; the two lovers grunting and moaning together.  Susan and Alex suddenly cry out together as Alex cums inside of her, thrusting more and more until he can’t take anymore, as he begins to ease off, moving slower until stopping while still inside of her.  Susan panting ‘fucking hell Alex....one of these days you’re going to kill me with that thing!’  Alex can barely speak ‘I.....will.....try.....not.....to, see...what...you....do to me?’  Alex and Susan both laugh as Alex withdraws from her, gently pulling her underwear back into place, as Susan pulls her dress back down over her perfect ass.  Alex and Susan then sit on the floor with their backs leaning against the island.  Alex turns to Susan ‘I think you dressed like that, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to keep my hands off you!’  Susan laughed ‘of course I did....I knew that as soon as I walked through that door, every part of you would be building up to fucking me in some part of this house!’  Alex laughs ‘I don’t know whether to thank you or spank you for being naughty!’  Susan smiles ‘I am a naughty girl and you know it!’  Alex thumps his head back against the island ‘I could never have imagined that you would be as horny as me...all those times standing on your doorstep....you looking like butter wouldn’t melt in your mouth!’  Susan giggles ‘I don’t know about butter Alex, but there are other things that melt in my mouth!’  Alex and Susan both laugh.  Alex then asks ‘Should we go and check out the rest of the house now?’  Susan smiling ‘I suppose we should!’  Alex looks directly at Susan ‘this time, I’ll walk up front, you can follow, just incase I get a sudden urge again!’  Susan laughs ‘Are you horny again?’  Alex with a slightly red face ‘always round you!’  Susan grabs Alex’s hand, dragging him to his feet ‘let’s check out the rest of the house, then I’ll give you a blow job!’

A Symphony of Sorrow

Chapter 14 – Discovery

It is 5.32am; Susan and Alex are both fast asleep.  Alex is dreaming, causing him to wriggle and twitch in the bed.  In his mind, he sees numbers falling before his eyes...the same numbers repeating themselves over and over again.  Susan awakens to the sound of Alex mumbling and shaking the bed ‘Alex...Alex, are you ok?’  Alex quickly opens his eyes and looks at Susan ‘I was having a strange dream!’  Susan asks ‘was it a nightmare?’  Alex rubbing his hands over his face, ‘no...it was a series of numbers repeating....strange isn’t it?’  Susan looking concerned ‘what were the numbers?’  Alex looking amused ‘4, 12, 38, 46, 57, 59 and 8!’  Susan drawing a breath ‘they could be lottery numbers!’  Alex agrees, lifting a pen and notepad from the bedside locker.  Susan asks ‘what are you doing?’  Alex whilst writing says ‘just writing the numbers down, incase I forget them....you never know!’  Susan smiles, leans across the bed to kiss Alex and says ‘although I can’t get my head round what’s going on in there....I’m fascinated!’  Alex and Susan share a tender kiss and then lie back down to go to sleep.

 

The following morning, Alex is seated before Susan’s laptop, looking at the National Lottery website.  His mind is racing as he stares at the numbers on the screen.  Alex turns towards Susan ‘Susan....would you mind if I use your Bank Card to place a line on the lottery....I would use mine if I still had any but as you know...I’m legally dead!’  Susan giggles ‘you don’t need to explain!’  Susan reaches for her purse, removes a Bank Card and hands it to Alex.  Alex thanks her, turns back to the laptop and then places the line on tonight’s Lottery draw, using the numbers from his dream.  Alex smiles and turns back to Susan ‘If we win....it would change everything about our lives!’  Susan smiles ‘As long as it doesn’t change who we are....I’m so happy right now, I never want that to change!’  Alex looks lovingly towards Susan ‘there is no amount of money in this world that would change how I feel about you!’  Susan smiles and returns to her chores.

Later that evening; Susan, Aimee and Alex are all sitting waiting for the Lottery draw on the television.  Neither of them believe, that Alex’s dream was anything more than just a dream; but they wait and watch all the same.  Suddenly, the draw begins and the machine on the television comes to life.  Alex leans forward on the sofa as the Lottery Broadcaster begins to read out the numbers; he calls out 46.  There is a pause; then 38, followed by 4, 12, 59, 57 and the bonus ball 8.  By this stage; Susan and Alex are screaming at the television while Aimee sits puzzled by their actions.  Aimee screams ‘Mummy....what’s wrong?’  Susan hugging Alex and then Aimee ‘We’ve won the lottery, holy shit we’ve won!’  Alex is ecstatic ‘Can you believe this, Christ Almighty....yes!’  Susan screams at Alex ‘How much did we win?’  Alex in a panic ‘We’ve won 43 million, can you believe it.....oh my god!  Susan can hardly accept what is happening ‘Is it real Alex, is this all real?’  Alex smiles ‘We’re rich Susan!’

After the excitement has passed, the shock sets in with Susan experiencing a long phone call to the Lottery Company.  Susan looks shocked while the person on the other end of the telephone confirms that they are now officially rich beyond their wildest dreams.  Alex is seated in the corner watching Susan as she thanks the Lottery Company employee and hangs up the telephone.  Alex says ‘that’s it then...we’re rich!’  Susan sits down ‘where do we go from here Alex....I don’t know what to do!’  Alex smiles ‘we enjoy it Susan....we use it sensibly and make sure that all of Aimee's dreams come true....that’s what we do!’  Susan smiles back at Alex with a little tear in her eye.  Alex gets up and moves over beside Susan on the sofa, putting his arm around her ‘what’s the matter?  Susan choking back the tears ‘I’ve never had it easy you know, always counting the pennies, using shopping vouchers....everything’s always been a struggle!’  Alex comforting Susan ‘Not anymore....this is good for us!’  Susan now totally overwhelmed ‘I feel like we’ve won the lottery twice!’  Alex looking puzzled ‘How so?’  Susan leans her head onto Alex’s chest ‘you were my first lottery win; before the money came along....your love for me is worth more than all the money in the world!’  Alex and Susan embrace in a kiss before leaving the room to go to bed.  In bed, the two lovers lie in each other’s arms after making love.  Alex asks ‘are you ok?’  Susan feeling much better ‘I am now....I think having you inside me, put things into perspective!’  Susan laughs and Alex follows saying ‘well then, I’m glad I could help!’  Susan and Alex turn out the lights and slip off to sleep, dreaming of great things to come; a life without the burden of financial strain and a reality full of love and happiness.

Chapter 12 – Susan’s Inner Monologue (One year previous)

How did we end up here?  You used to be so strong, protective, sexy and loving.  You were my gentleman, so mannerly, courteous and interesting in every way and yet somewhere along the way you diminished my respect for you.  At first I thought the drink was to blame and still I loved you.  The frequency of bad events increased, more and more until one night I saw you for what you really are...a monster.  I believe that half of you loved me while the other half despised me.  At that point, the love in me retracted and all that I was left with was an overweight drunk of a man.  I tried so hard to keep my already flagging emotions going but we became mannerly and complacent during the day.  I was always more than aware that the night time, would be a different story.  At night we would sit aimlessly watching garbage on the TV, drinking when I didn’t want to; wanting to go to bed to sleep without the pressure of sex, but you forced yourself on me, your foul cock inside me, crushing me under your heavy body while smelling your stench.  I don’t find you sexually attractive anymore.  When I asked you not to grope me while we were hugging, you ignored me and treated me like a piece of meat.  You reminded me of a dirty old man touching someone up.  You should have understood that a hug is a hug and a grope is a grope.  You don’t show me any respect when you’re supposed to be hugging me and you slip a hand....I’m supposed to be your wife, not some cheap skanky whore.  Every day the mental torture has gotten worse with you expecting sex from me every day of the week...its ok for you because you lounge around the house all day;  I work all day, so did you never stop and think that maybe I was tired and just wanted sleep.  I’ve found now that I couldn’t, wouldn’t feel aroused by you and have tried to avoid sex with you as much as possible, even if I had been drinking...I was still repulsed by you.  I can’t even look at you anymore, because I see the real you; a hard, course, stubborn, self important, pathetic, unmanly, arrogant, temperamental, false bastard....I hate you.  No matter what tragedy befalls you, it’s always my fault.  You’re not my lover, you’re not my friend and you’re not my husband.

Where are you my dream lover?  Have you ever noticed that no matter when you deliver to me...I am always here waiting for you?  I wait for you to arrive, my heart racing...my disappointment if you don’t.  I look at you with love in my eyes but you don’t notice me.  Am I not attractive enough for you, has he stolen that from me along with the rest.  I change my hair for you, I put on makeup, short skirts and flirt like mad with you but still you don’t notice me.  What will it take?  I know you are married and I feel bad about that; but I know you are not happy, because I see the pain in your eyes...you cannot hide it from me.  You are so deep and try so hard to hide your anguish, but I see it and I want to help you so badly and yet, you won’t let me in.  I would give myself over to you, body and soul, to make you happy.  At night, I think about you...a gentle touch with those rough hands, your smile right before you kiss me.....I crave you.  I touch myself when I fantasise about you; imagining that you are between my legs, making love to me....oh god, why do we always want what we cannot have?  I wonder did you notice when I went to my parents place in Italy, did you miss talking to me?  I was gone for three weeks.  I hoped that not seeing you would ease my cravings; that somehow, a change of scenery would distract me from thinking about you...I only missed you more.  I need you; can’t you see that.  You are everything that he is not.  I pray at night that god will see both of us, know that we are meant for each other and then give you a gentle nudge, something that would make you come to me so that we can be together.  I must be insane for believing that you would feel the same way about me.  You must have lots of admirers who stand at their doors flirting with you; probably better looking ones than me...that wouldn’t be hard.  Do you ever think about me when you’re in the depths of your despair?  Probably not!  I’m not going to give up on you...even if it means running the risk of rejection; I’ll do whatever it takes.

Chapter 13 – Intimacy

Susan and Alex are lying in bed, wrapped in each other’s arms.  Susan looks up at Alex and asks ‘tell me this Alex; what really turns you on?’  Alex looks surprised ‘I think you know!’  Susan slaps his arm and asks ‘do you want to elaborate?’  Alex laughs, breathes in and then responds with ‘you of course....I can’t keep my hands off you!’  Susan smiles, turns away slightly and then asks ‘what I meant was, do you have any fetishes; kinky things or anything like that?’  Alex laughs harder ‘is this a test?  Susan laughs out loud, slapping him at the same time ‘no...I just want you to be honest with me....if there’s something specific, and it’s not too weird...I would do it to please you!’  Alex by this stage is laughing hard ‘I thought that you already enjoyed our sex life...I know I do...you’re amazing in bed, the kitchen, the living room and anywhere else!  Susan giggles ‘let’s get something clear; I’ve never had orgasms with anyone the way I do with you, not forgetting multiple orgasms, but I feel that I’m getting more out of it than you are...you are a really attentive lover!’  Alex smiles ‘I have no complaints whatsoever; you are the most amazing lover I have ever had and furthermore; when I cum....I feel like my head is going to explode!’  Susan still enquiring ‘there must me something that I can do for you though....be honest with me!’  Alex rubs the stubble on his chin, taking his time ‘well there is one thing....it’s probably something stupid really; but I’ve always had a thing for women in Black leather knee boots, thigh boots....that sort of thing!’  Susan laughs ‘Is that it, that’s not stupid....they are very sexy and I love the way my boots make me feel when I wear them!’  Alex looks down at Susan with a big smile on his face ‘you have boots?’  Susan smiles and then jumps out of bed ‘hang on....you’re going to like this collection!’  Alex feels himself instantly getting aroused ‘oh shit, something is happening, down below!’  Susan slides open a drawer from beneath her bed and places it onto the bed.  The drawer contains eight pairs of boots....all leather; some thigh high, some knee high; all of them have stiletto heels and pointed toes, just the way Alex likes them.  Susan takes out a pair of thigh high boots, turns so that she can sit on the bed, places her left foot into a boot and then starts to slowly zip the boots closed.  Alex is very excited and he cannot hide it.  Susan turns to him ‘play with yourself while I get ready!’  Alex immediately follows her command and pushes the duvet off, exposing himself.  As Alex masturbates while watching Susan walking naked across the room to a chest of drawers; he notices just how unbelievably sexy she looks in her boots, her perfect body right before his eyes.  Susan turns around with a pair of handcuffs in her right hand ‘you better not cum....save it for me!’  Alex laughs ‘or what?’  Susan seductively walks back to Alex ‘I’ll have you begging me to let you cum!’  Alex laughs again ‘you are blowing my mind!’  Susan smiles, climbs onto the bed, straddling Alex; grabs his hands, placing the handcuffs onto his wrists.  Alex giggling ‘I’m starting to get worried here!’  Susan secures Alex’s hands to the headboard using the handcuffs ‘this is where I’m gonna make you beg!’  Alex leans forward to kiss her as Susan moves her face away, preventing him from kissing her.  Alex looks disappointed ‘come on....please!’  Susan smiles and then moves herself down the bed, positioning her head above his groin.  Alex feels more turned on than he has ever felt before, when Susan slowly places her lips around his hard cock, performing oral sex.  Alex gasps, crying out ‘Jesus Christ Susan....holy shit!’  Susan continues sucking and licking Alex’s cock, driving him crazy while he squirms around on the bed.  Alex can feel himself growing close to orgasm and Susan senses it.  She quickly grabs the bottom of his shaft, squeezing it tightly to prevent him from cumming.  Alex cries out ‘no.....no; I need to cum!’  Susan laughs ‘you’ll cum when I let you cum, and not before!’  Susan continues sucking his cock, bringing Alex closer and closer to orgasm again when once again she stops him.  Alex cannot take anymore and begs Susan to let him cum once again.  Susan looking serious ‘only when I say you can!’  Susan moves up the bed slowly so that she can straddle Alex, hovering just above his hard cock ‘Tell me you want to be inside me!’  Alex suffering ‘I want to be inside you; please....I need to cum!’  Susan smiles once more and then starts to lower herself onto his cock, allowing only the head to penetrate her. Alex cries out again ‘more, I need more!’  Susan complies; slowly sliding herself down so that Alex penetrates her more and more until his full length is inside of her.  Susan cries out ‘fuck Alex....I can’t believe how hard you are!’  Alex on the verge of exploding ‘please let me cum, please!’  Susan smiles and then starts to move herself up and down, faster and faster, her breathing changing as she feels herself losing control.  Alex starts to thrust his pelvis upwards from the bed so that he can penetrate Susan, harder and deeper when suddenly, the chain on the headboard breaks.  Susan cries out ‘fuck me Alex, fuck me hard!’  Alex grabs Susan’s bum, lifting her from the bed while he is still inside her, runs her across the room to the nearest wall, where he pins her against the wall, her boot covered legs wrapped around him as he fucks her up the wall.  Susan screams an earth shattering scream as Alex pounds himself inside of her as they both near orgasm.  Alex panting ‘I’m gonna cum right now!’  Susan cries out ‘Do it, cum inside me!’  Alex cums hard inside of her, continuing to fuck her until both of them cry out together and then start to slowly slide down the wall onto the carpet below.  Several minutes pass before Susan asks ‘well.....how was that for you?  Alex still panting ‘words cannot describe what just happened....I’ve never cum so hard my entire life!’  Susan smiles through her panting ‘you’re welcome!’

Chapter 11 – Alex’s Inner Monologue (One year Previous)

‘Why does she treat me this way?  I have done nothing to deserve this.  I work hard every day, I’m kind with money, I try my best to please her in bed and yet nothing is ever good enough.  On our anniversaries, I make her unique gifts that are specific, only to her....an obvious act of romance and yet still, she treats me like shit.  I need love, real love...the kind of love that other people seem to have and I cannot find.  I want to feel my stomach in knots when I’m apart from the one that I love; my every waking hour and dreams possessed by her.  Instead I get a feeling of dread when I know that I have to go home to a foul mouthed drunk whose selfishness knows no limits.  I feel as if I will never escape this torment; imprisoned by the high walls of my own despair.  I am the architect of my own destruction; condemning myself to a lonely life of pain and suffering all because I was too afraid to be alone....I’m an idiot.  Sometimes I think that I deserve this hell in which I exist...that I brought it on myself.  Everything that we see in romantic movies are lies....eternal love is nothing more than a piece of fiction created by people who are misleading the truly gullible people of this world.  I give up.  I have been abused for so long now that I have no self esteem left...I feel that the opposite sex could never possibly find me attractive.  She never wanted to fuck me unless she was so bombed out of her head that she could barely string a sentence together; how the hell could you possibly feel attractive when someone has made it perfectly clear, that you’re only ever good enough when they see you through blurred vision.  I despise the weak victim that I have become.  Why did I take her back after she fucked some other guy that she met on holiday...some fucking complete stranger who could have been carrying the AIDS virus....her excuse, she didn’t mean to, she was drunk and yet that’s supposed to make it ok....bullshit.  After she told me about it, I couldn’t get the images out of my mind for years; I imagined this Spanish sex god, bending her over, pulling her skirt up over her hips and fucking her hard from behind...just the way I know she likes it...fucking slut.  She even had no problem telling me that she didn’t only fuck this jerk off once; no she had to have a 12 day booze fuelled affair with him...brilliant.   The funniest part of the story is that she had the audacity to argue with me when I asked her to get tested for STI’s; she ought to be a comedian.  It’s all a big joke....my life is one big fucking joke.  It’s ironic because the first thing people always say when asked what they think of Alex is.....he’s a funny guy, he cracks me up; the irony being that I really am the living embodiment of a joke.  Everyone laughs when I open my mouth, some people saying that I brighten up their every day and yet who’s there to brighten up my day....you guessed it, no one.  Oh I don’t know, I give up.  Where do I go from here?  On many occasions, I have told friends that I cannot find true love no matter how hard I try, that I feel lost and trapped.  My friends always say, you have to have faith, you must have hope....well I can tell you right now, that which I said to them; hope is for fools who believe that life can have a fairy tale ending.  Hope is like a cancer; it starts off small and then starts to grow inside of you until it consumes every part of you, leaving you nothing left except your empty rotting shell.  I know you’re probably thinking that this guy is insane...I’m not insane....I’m just in my own personal hell.

I met someone about a year ago, someone who I see several times a week through my work; from the moment we met, I felt an instant attraction to her, as if all the stars in the sky suddenly moved into alignment just for the two of us.  When our eyes met for the first time, I felt like a lightning bolt had struck me in the chest.  She is so beautiful yet unassuming, hiding behind layers of clothing that cover her long body from head to toe, yet perfect as if created by the gods themselves.  When we chat, I am constantly fixated on her large bright eyes that seem to open up a universe of endless possibilities; her smile would melt even the toughest of steels.  She is perfection personified.  When I fantasise about being with her, I kiss her softly while gently touching her smooth Blonde hair.  I am infatuated by her.  Unfortunately, I do not believe that she feels the same; that somehow she doesn’t think of me in that way....is it because I’m not good looking enough to captivate her; perhaps it is something else.  I have poured my charm into our conversations, letting loose my full comical ability in the hope that perhaps my personality will make her fall in love with me; that perhaps she will see past my rougher exterior to find the real man inside.  Every time we meet, I want her to say something to stop me giving up on her....sadly it just doesn’t seem possible.  It’s been a while now and yet nothing has moved forward and somehow I’m still hanging on in the hope that she will do that which I find impossible to do.  I can’t take another rejection....I’m damaged enough as it is.  A while back, I awoke from a sleep and thought to myself that this is the day that I’m going to tell her how I feel about her; I planned everything with military precision, running every scenario through my head to prevent any potential damage to my already weakening self confidence.  The day started badly and then went downhill from there.  Our chat didn’t go anything like I had planned with me literally falling apart at the seams under the pressure.  I got so close to telling her and then I stopped, back tracked and then folded.  By the time I had left her, she was none the wiser because I was too afraid to take a chance....I’m a coward where women are concerned.  Alexander the Great once said that Fortune favours the bold, a phrase that I have repeatedly ran through my head again and again but still in the end, I failed.  I have come to believe that sometimes the greatest acts of love are the hardest to commit.  Take from that what you want....I know what I mean.  Sadly, I feel like I have only one choice left....to walk away from the situation altogether.  Susan has become both the greatest thing and most destructive thing that has come into my life.  I am haunted by her.  Every time I see her, I just want to be with her...and yet it seems impossible.  I have thought long and hard about everything and I have come to the conclusion that perhaps it’s better to just move away from it all, get a new job; start to gradually remove all memory of her from my mind so that I can suffer less.  I know that I was happier when I was miserable....when all hope was lost.  Susan offers me a kind of false happiness that starts to fade as soon as I turn and walk away from her.....she has become a drug and I am her addict.  I have lost.

A Symphony of Sorrow

Chapter 10 - A New beginning

Two weeks had passed since Alex’s return.  As each day passed, Alex changed both physically and mentally whilst Susan stood by in disbelief and concern.  Alex had evolved and there was no way to deny it.  The circumstances concerning his return were totally and categorically unexplainable.  Alex could feel a massive force building from within, a force so strong that he felt that he could literally move mountains...this concerned Alex as he had not yet learned to control this new found power, and that both Susan and Aimee may be in danger.  Alex walked through the house, out through the patio doors into the garden where he sat on the grass.  As Alex leaned his left hand down onto the ground, he was suddenly hit with a massive surge of images firing through his mind, so fast that he could hardly comprehend most of them.  Alex lifted his hand from the grass and looked bewildered.  As Alex lay back onto the grass, he could feel the electricity on the wind, the sensation of the grass growing beneath and also the weather front which at this time was approximately 100 miles away.  Alex smiled, casting his mind back over the strange events of the past two weeks; his funeral, which of course...he did not formally attend.  His now widowed wife continuing on with her life as if Alex had never been born...this came as no surprise due to the fact that he already felt dead whilst with her.  Things were most definitely not exactly normal.  Susan arrived home and called out ‘Alex’.  Alex replied ‘out here’.  Susan walked out into the garden to find Alex lying on the grass.  ‘What are you doing?’ she asked.  ‘I have no idea...seemed like a good idea at the time!’ Alex replied with a teeth showing smile.  Susan looked bemused and then asked ‘are you ok?’  Alex looked straight into her eyes and said ‘how long will Aimee be at your Mum’s?’  Susan smiled back ‘for about 4 hours!’  Alex quickly jumped to his feet and moved quickly to Susan, picking her up in his arms as she broke into a giggling fit.  Alex started to hum a tune as he carried her through the house to the stairs where he ran to the top effortlessly carrying Susan into the bedroom where he laid her gently onto the bed.  Alex peeled off his tight black top exposing his newly enlarged chest and arms whilst Susan gasped ‘holy shit Alex, what is happening to you?’  Alex replied simply ‘I want you!’  Susan giggled as Alex peeled off her black leggings and top, exposing most of her bare flesh.  Alex then reached forward grasping Susan by her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the bed whilst pushing her upper body back onto the soft duvet.  Using only his teeth, Alex slowly pulled her underwear down from her hips, past her feet onto the floor where he now kneeled.  Susan said nervously ‘What are you doing?’  Alex said nothing, instead moving his face into Susan’s groin....his tongue extended out touching her smooth clitoris.  Susan gasped and called out ‘Alex, oh holy shit...oh my god oh my god’ Alex slowly pleasured Susan while her back arched up from the bed, sweat running down her soft skin, her body trembling in ecstasy while Alex moved her closer to orgasm.  Susan’s breathing became more and more erratic while her mind and body could not take anymore.  Susan started to say ‘Alex, Alex oh shit’ as Alex focused his mind into releasing tiny microscopic pulses of electricity through his tongue which passed into Susan’s Clitoris sending her into a massive orgasm that shook her entire body from head to toe, shaking, trembling and convulsing.  Susan cried out ‘no more, oh god I can’t take anymore’ as Alex continued whilst holding her thighs with a tight grip.  Susan tried to pull away while Alex sent her into another massive orgasm causing her to scream even louder than before.  Susan lay shaking on the bed, her finger nails practically tearing through the duvet when Alex arose from his knees and pushed Susan’s legs back over her shoulders as he slowly slid himself inside of her causing her to call out again ‘oh my god oh my god Alex!’  Alex moved back and forth increasing his speed and force as Susan reached her breaking point as Alex’s orgasm erupted inside of her causing them both to scream out in unison.  Alex wrapped his arms around Susan as he turned lifting her from the edge of the bed; the two lovers locked in a deep loving kiss which seemed to last forever.  Susan still panting ‘I’m so gonna get you back for that’ as they both burst into laughter whilst gazing into each other’s eyes.  Alex loved Susan’s big bright eyes, so full of love, intelligence and life.  He felt that he could spend an eternity looking deep into her soul.  Some time passed as they both lay naked on top of the bed clothes locked in each other’s arms.  Susan said softly to Alex ‘I have no idea how you did that but I can tell you one thing...I have never, ever felt anything like it...I actually thought that my heart was going to stop beating.’  Alex smiled while running his fingers through her hair saying ‘I love you more than life itself....I would travel the endless seas of time to be by your side.’  Susan pulled Alex closer resting her head onto his chest ‘When I thought I lost you forever....I felt that I was dead inside....I never knew that it was possible to love someone this much, so much that it actually hurts’  Susan turned her head slightly to look into Alex’s eyes ‘I’m so in love with you’  Alex and Susan embrace again in a passionate kiss, their hands gently touching each other as Susan started to move downwards, kissing Alex’s chest and stomach before getting him back as she had promised.

Several hours passed by and before long, Aimee was back home with Susan and Alex.  Alex was busy cooking dinner in the kitchen whilst Susan played with Aimee in the living room.  Alex called out ‘its ready guys.’  Aimee came running into the kitchen with her mum close behind.  Alex turned and lifted Aimee up onto a dining chair at the small square wooden table and said ‘right you wee Monkey, are you hungry?’  Aimee instantly replied in an excited tone ‘I’m starving.’  Alex dished out his homemade pasta onto three plates and then turned and placed them onto the table.  He then reached for a bread basket filled with crusty bread and placed it into the centre of the table.  The three then sat at the table eating their meal, laughing and enjoying each other’s company.  Aimee asked Alex ‘do you know any magic?’  Susan and Alex smiled at each other as Alex searched his mind for magic tricks; as he focused more and more...suddenly a glass sitting to his right, slid forward towards him while Aimee squealed with excitement ‘do it again, do it again!’  Susan looked stunned ‘Alex, how did you do that?’  Alex shrugging his shoulders ‘I have no idea!’  Again Aimee squealed ‘I want to see it again!’  Alex looked directly at the glass and imagined it moving and suddenly the glass slid forward towards Susan.  Alex then focused again, this time imagining that the glass was lifting from the table and there again...the glass started to ascend from the table top, slowly moving over Alex’s shoulder where it would gently set down onto the kitchen surface beside the cooker.  Aimee was beside herself with excitement; Susan was not so much excited but more so shocked, as she could not even begin to understand the forces at play.  Alex in a nonchalant manner said ‘well you certainly don’t see that every day.’  Silence fell over the room while Susan and Alex sat quietly thinking about the ramifications of these changes that he has been experiencing.  Susan said suddenly ‘Aimee will you be good for Mummy and go and watch TV!’  Aimee with disappointment said ‘but Mummy, I want to see more magic!’  Susan looked at her calmly ‘Aimee, can you do what you’re told please!’  Aimee in a begrudged manner got down from the chair and slowly walked into the living room, closing the door behind her.  Alex looked cautiously at Susan while she asked ‘Should I be worried about this?’  Alex said in a softly spoken tone ‘I don’t know what to say......I don’t think that it’s anything scary, but can’t tell you why this is happening!’  Susan smiled ‘I’m slightly frightened by these powers you’re developing, is there anything else I should know about Alex?’  Alex looked down at the table and then lifted his head saying ‘I have developed this ability, you could say.....whereby I can feel everything around us....the static in the air, the magnetism from the rocks and soil and even what i can only imagine is the rotation of the earth!’  Susan sat staring back at him with a look of confusion ‘what do you think it all means Alex?’  Alex breathed in and then said ‘I think it means that I have been given these abilities for a reason, what the reason is....i have no idea but i can only hope that I will find a purpose soon!’
