CHAPTER 58
NALEDI MOLETSANE

This cannot be happening to me again. Why
do I keep falling in love with assholes? I
should have known that Shlobo wasn’t single,
I mean he is an Adonis and very successful. I
am hurt, I won’t even lie. I just want to pack
what’s mine and leave this house. I want
nothing to do with men, when I get back to
Johannesburg I am focusing on my daughter
and Khambule holdings. It’s clear that love
wasn’t meant for someone like me. I just need
to get myself a Battery Operated Boyfriend for
my sexual needs.
I’ve packed my things back in the suitcase, I
just need to take this dress off and put on
these sweatpants, a t-shirt and sneakers then
leave this house. I’ll request an Uber in the
streets. I remove my dress and the door
opens, it’s Shlobosenkosi. I quickly hide my
naked body with the dress, he doesn’t deserve
to see my nakedness again. He takes a deep
breath and locks the door. What the fuck does
he think he’s doing?
“I love you, Naledi,” he whispers and I smack
my lips.
“Go jump off a bridge with your stupid love,” I
say with a shaking voice. Fuck! Why couldn’t
it come out steady, this man shouldn’t see
how much he has hurt me.
I’m just happy that I’m not crying anymore.
“Baby, I am so sorry. But I swear I’m not
cheating on you. I ended things with Nonku,”
he thinks I’m stupid doesn’t he? I am not
going to believe a word that comes out of his
mouth. I’ve dealt with a liar before and I
won’t allow him to take me down the same
road I walked with Jimmy.
“I told you what my ex did to me and you just
had to do the same shit to me, Shlobo,” he
closes his eyes as if in pain. Why bother
acting? He fucked me, he should be proud of
himself for playing me so good.
“Sthandwa sami, it’s only you. I should have
been honest about Nonku but I was scared
that you’d run for the hills. I don’t want to
lose you, baby I’ve come alive since I met you
and I don’t want to stop feeling this way,” he
deserves an oscar award, those tears are
convincing.
“Please leave the room, I want to change and
go,” he gasps in shock.
“Naledi you can’t leave, let’s talk about this
please,” he says, coming to me and I shake my
head.
“Don’t touch me, Shlobo,” I warn but he
doesn’t take me seriously. He grabs my dress
and throws it on the floor.
“I don’t want this,” my voice comes out in a
whisper as his hands caress my hips.
“I love you, please believe me. What Nonku
and I had is over, it was over the minute I
made love to you for the very first time.
It can only be you my angel,” he kisses my
neck and I swallow hard. Desire is running
through every inch of my body, why am I so
weak when it comes to this man? I cannot
control myself when he touches me.
“I can’t go through this again, I just can’t. My
little daughter needs her mom sane,” I
managed to move on from Jimmy quickly but
it’s going to be hard with Shlobo. He managed
to worm his way into my heart and soul in a
short space of time. But I am Naledi
Moletsane, I will pick myself up and move on
from this.
“This started with a lie. You made me the
other woman without my knowledge. I’ve
been there and it was a horrible experience,” I
say as his finger finds its way to my pussy,
massaging my clitoris. I feel a fire like no
other and I close my eyes as I take in the
pleasure.
“I love you, baby,” he says and I moan. I am
mad at him but I just can’t get myself to stop
him from doing this to me. God, why am I so
weak for this man? My subconscious is
looking at me with disappointment. She
cannot believe that I’m letting Shlobo use sex
to subdue me. I don’t blame her because she
knows Naledi the fierce girl who takes shit
from no one, not this weakling that I am
when Shlobo touches me.
“Do you want me to stop?” he asks, inserting
a finger inside of me and moving it in and out
slowly. A delicious tingle runs down my spine
and I throw my head back and moan in my
throat.
“Naledi, do you want me to stop?” this
bastard, he knows that my body is at his
mercy. He knows how much he affects me. I
place both my hands on his chest.
“No, I want you to make love to me,” I am
judging myself too. I should be telling him
where to get off, not begging for his stupid,
delicious penis.
Shlobo withdraws his finger and puts it in his
mouth, sucking it clean of my arousal. His
eyes are dark with desire and that only makes
me more horny.
“You taste so good, sthandwa sami,”
He takes off his T-shirt and the shorts follow
along with his boxers, his erection springs
free. I gulp down my saliva and raise my eyes
to his.
“It’s only you, Naledi. Do you understand?” he
asks and I just nod. Right now I will agree to
everything, I just want him inside of me. I
watch him remove my suitcase from the bed
and placing it down. He points to the bed and
I don’t hesitate, I climb on it and lie on my
back. Shlobo bites his lower lip as I open my
legs for him to get in between them.
“You are gorgeous, baby. I will never get
enough of you,” he climbs on the bed, running
his hands up my inner thighs.
“Please don’t leave me, Naledi. You are
everything I thought I’d never have again in
my life babe,”
“Shlobo please,” I need him inside of me right
now, I can’t bare the ache between my legs no
more. He starts rubbing his penis at my
opening.
“Condom,” I murmur but he slam into me and I
moan loudly.
“Shhhhh, we are not alone baby,” I press my
lips into a thin line and he starts to move.
This man didn’t put on a condom and my need
won’t allow me to stop him and ask for
protection.
I wrap my legs around his waist and he grabs
my hips, pressing me down on the mattress
as he thrusts deeper. We are kissing, it’s
sloppy, wet and full of need. Our chemistry is
out of this world, no man has ever made me
feel the way Shlobo makes me feel. Oh God,
I’m almost there. I feel it building up in my
belly, it’s going to rip me apart. I start digging
my nails into his back, moaning in his mouth
as I cum undone.
A few more thrusts and he groans deeply and
stops moving. That was amazing, as always.
Shlobo kisses my forehead after catching his
breath and gets off from on top of me and lies
next to me.
“It took 18 years for my heart to come alive,
Naledi. I love you so much, please forgive me
for starting our relationship before I ended
the one I had with Nonku. I mean it when I
say I love you mama, I honestly want to
spend the rest of my life with you,” I
desperately want to believe that he means
everything he’s saying but it’s hard. I’ve been
down this road before and because of it I was
humiliated, attacked physically and made to
look like a home wrecker. I love Shlobo but he
needs to fix his mess and lay things to rest
before I can think about moving forward with
him.
“Nonku doesn’t seem to think that you guys
are over, Shlobo. She went running to your
mother for help and she’s clearly on her side. I
don’t stand a chance, your mom already hates
me. You need to fix the issue before we can
move forward,” I lay it down to him and he
nods in agreement.
“And I will make MaZikode understand that
it’s you my heart wants. She will come around
soon because she has always wanted me to
find love,” a rough knock comes through the
door.
“Shlobo! I said I want to go back to my house.
I’m not spending a minute in a cheaters house
while his mistress is still here,” his mother
shouts and he closes his eyes. Wow, just wow.
She’s calling me names when she knows
nothing about me.
“Baby, she wants me to take her to
Mahlabathini. I’ll be gone for about 4 hours,”
he explains and I sit up straight.
How did she get here in the first place?
“Do what you have to do,” I say and he heaves
a sigh.
“I won’t take a minute longer, I promise. I’ll
call my sister and ask her and my son to
spend the rest of the weekend at her
apartment. I think we are going to need the
whole house to ourselves as we fix this,” he
says and I want to tell him not to bother but I
keep my mouth shut.
“Shlobo!” bathong, this woman.
“I’ll be out in a second ma,” her son is
exasperated. He looks at me with pleading
eyes, “I’m sorry that I have to leave you in
this state. I’ll be back ASAP. I love you,
muntomuhle,” he pecks my lips and climbs off
the bed. I watch him put on his clothes and he
heads out after starring at me for a few
seconds.
I bring my knees up to my chest and hug
myself. I know what I have to do but it’s hard
because I’ve fallen for this guy. I want to take
a leap of faith, but I’m scared that I’ll get hurt
in the end. I think it’s only right for us to take
things slow, we were flying at maximum
speed and it shouldn’t be a surprise that we’ve
crushed so soon. I need to go back to
Johannesburg and keep my distance for some
time.
Shlobo is going to have to work hard to prove
that he wants me and me alone. He needs to
have a talk with the Nonku lady and make
sure they are on the same page; then sit his
mom down and make her understand the
situation. She doesn’t have to like me but I
expect that she at least respect me and my
relationship with her son. I’m not about to
have a toxic relationship with my boyfriends
family, I don’t need that kind of energy in my
life.
I get off the bed and head straight to the
bathroom for a quick shower, his sperm is
dripping down my thighs. I should remember
to get an emergency pill, the last thing I need
is to get pregnant while he hasn’t sort out his
mess. I step out of the shower and head back
to the bedroom after drying myself with a
towel. I lotion my skin and put on the clothes
I had set out before Shlobo came in and used
sex to calm me down. I pack everything back
in the suitcase and sit down on the edge of
the bed, I need to book a flight. I hope there’s
a seat on the one leaving today, if not then I’ll
go book into a hotel and wait for tomorrow. I
don’t want to be here when he comes back,
he will definitely use sex to get me to stay
and I need to go. He needs to see that I’m
serious, that I won’t allow him to mistreat
me and stay with him all because I love him.
God is good, there’s a seat on a flight that
leaves in 4 hours. When he gets here I’ll be
boarding, headed back home. I quickly book it
and when everything is confirmed I take a
deep breath and get up from the bed. I wheel
my suitcase out of his bedroom, the whole
house is quiet, him and his mom have left. I
go on the app and request for an Uber, it’s
only 4 minutes away. I don’t have any time to
waste, I quickly press the button to open the
small gate and head out the door, locking the
security door.
