Angel POV
Damn you Maximilian DiLaurentis! I will find the money, whatever it takes, to buy back your shares of The Edgemont and be rid of you once and for all! And I think I know just how to do that…
Emily POV
Oh my god! I hope that person didn't recognize me! What was I thinking! I know what I was thinking but why am I thinking it! I lie in my bed in shorts and a t-shirt. No more sexy negligees tonight. Angel ruined the moment and now I can't get Maya out of my head. Watching her touch herself because of me, made me feel so sexy and wanted. I slip my fingers through my hair thinking about that look in her eye. Just that look put a spell on me, a spell that makes me feel more like hers than Angel's…
Chapter 4: Family
A Few Days Later…
Angel POV
I open the safe in my office looking at the stack of money I've borrowed from Max DiLaurentis, some of which is no longer there. I had no choice but to use it for improvements within The Edgemont. And now, I see no way out of this arrangement unless I can replace the money and buy back his shares.
I sit down at my desk raising a hand to my chin, stroking it in a thinking pose, racking my brain as to how I'm going to get the money. My gaze brings me to the photos on my desk, Lily and Will and Maya. But then I pick up the frame of me and Emily embracing one another, a picture of love and commitment. I put the photo down, sit back in my chair and my thoughts are drawn to my true love Michael. Our love and commitment was never to be replicated and I never wanted it to be. There's different love, it's never the same.
As I reminisce about our life together, I realize I have to make that call, that call I've been reluctant to make until now. I need to save this hotel from Max. I need to save my family. I need to save Michael's legacy…
I pick up the phone and dial. One of the household staff picks up.
"Marcus St. Germain, please," I say.
"May I ask whose calling?"
"Angel St. Germain."
"May I put you on hold?"
"Yes. Thank you."
I hear the phone being answered and a familiar voice thanking Marissa, a long standing member of the staff.
"I see Marissa is still with you Marcus."
"Angel, you know nothing changes in my world," he laughs.
"Well, things are changing pretty fast here."
"You're calling from The Edgemont? Wave, Angel, so I can see you."
"Are you still upset with me that I'm blocking your view of the ocean?" I ask playfully.
"It gives me great pleasure to know so many unfamiliar faces are frolicking on my family's beach," he gives a no holds barred reply.
"It's been a long time Marcus."
"My brother's been gone for ten years."
"I miss him too."
"How's Emelia?"
"Emily," I correct him.
"Yes, Emily, she of the long legs and spectacular physique."
"Aww, look who's talking," I play along.
"Ten years and you're already flirting."
"Nah, I'm just speaking the truth."
"How are Maya, Will and Lily doing?" he asks.
"They're good. Maya will probably be running the hotel one day. Will is going to make a fine lawyer and Lily, well, she's a teenager. She's ready to turn on anyone like a wild animal."
We laugh.
"I think, or rather I would hope, that Michael would be proud of them," I assure him.
"You were always a good mother Angel."
"Thank you."
"So, we've covered all the safe topics. What is it, Angel, that really brings you to call? What can I do for you after all this time?"
"I'd like to come over and discuss something with you."
"This has a business sense to it. Shame."
"Now look who's flirting."
"Fine, of course, business it is. How's lunch Wednesday at The Oceanside?"
"Lunch would be perfect, The Oceanside sounds nice."
"Tell Maya, Will and Lily I'm thinking about them."
"I will."
"'Til Wednesday."
"Until then Marcus."
I hang up the phone unable to suppress my smile, a smile that reminds me of Michael.
Emily POV
I approach Lily's bedroom excited to share the news about Zedd performing at her birthday party when I overhear her talking to her friend Lauren about me.
"Emily's driving me crazy. I don't get her."
"Why? What's she done this time?"
"It's like it's her birthday and, she's old so she's not making the effort to make it an incredible day for me."
"She probably thinks it's just your fifteenth birthday so whatever."
"Why are you defending her? I hate her and you do to."
"I hate everyone. I'm a total bitch and everyone knows it. But Emily seems alright."
"You hate her."
"Look, this whole birthday extravaganza was your idea. It's like you want to make some kind of statement to the rest of us."
"Everybody I know has had a birthday worth talking about except for me."
"Spoken like a true princess!"
They laugh at my expense and I find myself becoming a fifteen year old right then and there and I'm like fuck it. She can wait to hear the news and not from me.
MAYA POV
It's late in the evening when I wake to find Alison lounging in a chair at the end of my bed with her long honey streaked hair flowing back. But not even her hair or her cerulean blue eyes are enough to draw my attention away from the opened button down shirt she wears exposing her bare breasts. She sits with one foot against the doorframe of the balcony and one foot on the edge of the chair letting the ocean breeze tickle her nipples and her pussy. I can't help admiring this centerfold model as I snap a picture from my phone but I also have to wonder why she didn't mention she's married.
"Why didn't you tell me about him?"
"Would it have made a difference?"
I lace my fingers behind my head resting on the pillows, "No," I smile naughtily.
She laughs, "That's my girl," and gets up casually walking over to the bed. She crawls over to me snuggling against my shoulder.
She watches me admiring the photos I've taken of her.
"You're going to delete those, right?" She strongly urges as I admire the picture of her lying on the bed half naked with her ass pointing towards the camera.
I stare at the picture, "Yeah, I don't want anyone to see how big your ass really is." I break out laughing.
She playfully slaps at me and I grab her wrists wrestling her onto her back.
"I broke my first rule with you," I say.
"Oh yeah, what's that?"
"Never be with a woman whose husband's nicknamed 'the shark'."
We look at each other for a brief moment before our lips and our hands assault one another. And I feel that ass, squeezing it for my own pleasure…
EMILY POV
I sit at my vanity in a robe, untied so I can put lotion on my body and my neck and my face before bed. It's beginning to storm as I crawl next to Angel who's reading some reports. I tangle my fingers in her hair and ask,
"Is there something I should know?"
"About?" she quickly responds without looking at me.
"You went white as a ghost when you got that call the other night and you have yet to say anything about it. You ran out as soon as you hung up the phone."
"I didn't run out." She gets out of bed, "You know everyone has their own lives."
"Is this about Max?"
She stands next to the bed and says, "I need you to listen to me. I'm only going to tell you once. Maximillian DiLaurentis is nothing. He is part of doing business on the beach. He's like a natural hazard you cannot avoid. I run a clean business, Emily, and Max is not going to ruin that for me, for us."
"I'm sorry Angel. It's just that sometimes we don't feel like an 'us'. I just want it to be nice for everyone. And sometimes I feel like I'm the only one it's not nice for. Sometimes I feel like even Max has it nicer than me."
She gets back into bed, "I've just been out of sorts lately. Lily's birthday party is turning into an extravaganza I'm not sure she deserves. I don't want to think about that party or Max. I only want to think about you."
"Angel, I…"
"Em, come here," she opens her arms for me to snuggle back into her, "I know this hasn't been easy, stepping into my life. And I'm the one who's sorry."
"I overheard Lily with her friend and she was pretty clear that she hates me."
"She doesn't, she loves you but you're not conforming to her will so she's lashing out the only way she knows how to…by saying things she doesn't really mean. She really is crazy about you."
"I hope so. I've grown to love her. But I know, I'm not Michael and I never will be."
"Well, then, as tough as it is, I guess we need to work on that," she kisses my hand and our lips meet in a way they haven't met in a long time.
"Angel."
"You take my breath away," she says and I feel like she might mean it.
"Prove it."
We can hear a commotion from the storm but I won't let her leave. I roll on top of her.
"But Emily, if the staff doesn't work quickly everything will get wet."
"I'm already wet."
She pulls off my robe as I straddle her. My head goes back and out of the corner of my eye I spy a family photo. I block out everyone in it except for Maya. I don't know why, it just happens, my sex drive heightens needing to be fucked over needing to be loved…
MAYA POV
The next evening…
We're gathered for a family dinner. I roll my eyes as I exit the elevator and stroll through the door into Angel and Emily's penthouse suite. Angel is already seated at the head of the table with Lily and Emily on either side of her. Will sits next to Emily and I take my seat next to Lily.
"Sorry I'm late but I had something to take care of."
"Is there anything I need to know?" Angel insinuates that if its hotel related she should be made aware of it. "Nothing I couldn't handle." I was sneaking Alison DiLaurentis out of my hotel suite after another day of fucking if you must know.
We enjoy a nice meal and drink some wine. It's actually not as torturous as I thought it might be since I have an exquisite view from my seat. I catch her looking at me from time to time and I choose those moments to lick my lips or eye sex her with my long lashes. I can practically see the goosebumps protruding from her skin.
"So Mom, Emily and I were talking about Lily's party and we have some great news," Will shares.
Emily POV
"Oh really. New news I hope?" she sips from her wine and once again I'm made to feel inferior.
Lily crosses her arms with a ridiculous pout on her face.
"Emily, why don't you tell Lily," Will insists.
I smile at his kind gesture squeezing his hand in thanks, forgetting about my inner fifteen year old self, "Well. It looks like you'll be dancing the night away thanks to an international music producer," but before I can even say the name, Lily rolls her eyes into the back of her head. I look to Will and he encourages me to go on.
"Lily, that international music producer is Zedd."
Her jaw drops and a smile forms across her face, something that I've grown accustomed to not seeing.
"Zedd! Are you serious! Zedd! Oh Emily, this is going to be the best birthday ever!" She leaps from her chair rushing to my side to hug me and I hug her filling my heart with her love. And Angel sits back astonished by her daughter's genuine excitement.
"Well Emily, it looks like I was wrong, Zedd it is," she holds up her glass of wine in a gesture of congratulations.
"Mom, can I please be excused to call my friends?"
"Go."
She quickly hugs her mom and brother and Maya before rushing off to her room.
Alison POV
I lay in bed in an open silk robe with my husband, a handsome older man, fit and rich. I'm leaning against the pillows while he lies on his side leaning on his elbow. He plays with my nipple saying things that make me think he knows something but I think he's just fishing…
"I can tell anything about you," he slides his hand between my thighs with his fingers touching my pussy forcefully, startling me, "When you smell musky, I know it's almost your time of the month. And if you've been with anyone else but me," he removes his hand inhaling my scent, "I can smell that too."
He smiles and he kisses me. I smile and I kiss him back if only to divert his suspicions. I'll fuck him whenever he wants to fuck because that's what I have to do to play this game and win…
Emily POV
"Angel, we thought it would be a great opportunity to have some charitable contributions made to a foundation that is near and dear to Zedd's heart as well," Will adds.
"You mean that's the only way he would agree to this."
"Well, yes," Will concedes.
"Fine. Maya, you've been looking for an opportunity to prove yourself and now you have one. You and Emily can work together on this."
I choke on my wine.
"Emily, are you okay?" Angel asks concerned.
I wave a hand to her indicating that I'm fine. I can see Maya rather enjoying that little display of mine.
"Thank you Angel, this means a lot to me. I'm sure Emily and I will be working day and night to make this an unforgettable event," she sips from her glass peering over it at me and winks.
My mouth parts slightly and my chest starts to rise and fall excitedly. I blink back into reality smiling with a raised glass to her and, I clink glasses with Angel who kisses me on the lips keeping hers pressed against mine longer than was necessary.
Maya raises a perfectly sculpted eyebrow to that. And I can feel a sort of tug of war between them but I don't think Angel realizes she's playing.
"That's it for me," Will says as he places his napkin on the table, "if you'll excuse me, I have some studying to do."
He leaves me, Maya and Angel to sort out the details.
"Well, Emily, let me know when you'd like to start," she says and I'm sure I saw the tip of her tongue slip out between her teeth. Dayum!
"She'll start right away," Angel answers for me. "I have meetings all day tomorrow and a lunch engagement the day after so why don't you two take advantage of that."
"I'll definitely take advantage," Maya smiles devilishly.
Oh, what kind of advantage do you have in mind, Maya, and will I let you take that kind of advantage…
