Chapter: 094NORMANII sat in the living room pretending to watch the film playing on the screen, though nothing on it made sense to me. My eyes kept drifting to the door, over and over hoping, expecting, begging that Shawn would walk in. Every passing minute felt like a slap. He didn’t come. He called me but I ignored. He was supposed to know that was a cue for him to come over right? I guess he doesn’t really love me. All he did was lie. “What are you watching right now?” Estella’s voice boomed through making me return to the room. The Tv had stopped working and I didn’t realise she had paused the movie until she said something. “Hmmm… are you expecting someone?”“No,” I said too quickly, shaking my head before folding my legs on the couch and wrapping my hands around my legs. She frowned. “I don’t believe you. Since morning you havebeen staring at that door like someone who is expecting a package from heaven.”I swallowed hard, forcing myself not to look at the door again. Pull yourself tog

Chapter: 093SHAWN. There had been no movements in the house, everywhere had been quiet and there had been no trouble since last night. No threats. No movements. Nothing suspicious. My men reported the Same thing and I constantly checked on them. Still, I needed to leave. I needed to see Normani.She hadn't been picking up my calls. She was ignoring me and that stung. I dressed as quickly as I could, every movement sharp with precision. The more minutes passed without hearing her voice, the more my chest tightened. It felt like my breath was stuck somewhere far away… somewhere with her.I had never felt this way about anyone. Not even Jackie. What I felt toward Jackie had always been duty and obedience to the Don. Nothing more. No, growing up with her, she had always been the one who stayed by my side and that made me depend on her. But with Normani…It was different.It was dangerous.It was real.I stepped into the living room, ready to walk out of the mansion and then Jackie was standing t

Chapter: 092NORMANI. My head was literally banging by the time I opened my eyes. Every part of me was aching and I knew it was from the sex last night. Shawn. Shawn really made sure to drill me deeper than my imagination could ever go. Every part of me felt him. I had never thought that a man could make me feel the way he had made me fell in the bathroom. I could still remember how his fingers trailed my skin. The rise and fall of my chest. The breath from his lips fell on my skin in that moment and all I could think about was him burying himself inside of me and he did. And if felt so damn good until. Until Jackie came along. I splashed water into my face, and raised my head to see myself in the mirror. My eyes were still swollen from the deep sleep. How could I label Jackie bad when I was the one sleeping with her man? I forced myself to be Normani.Princess Normani. I had to be that powerful heiress who controlled multiple companies. The one everyone knew and respected. No man was going

Chapter: 091JACKIE. I had never been the type of woman who got jealous. I never needed to be. I was Jackie the woman who got whatever the hell she wanted. I even got my hands on Shawn, a man who was hard to get. He wanted me. He always yearned for me like he never did for any other woman. He did all that for me. Hence the reason I felt this way toward her. Normani. I wondered how she was able to make him feel something for her. The man I know. Shawn. The dangerous man in the dark, he would never look at another woman twice. What did she do?What does she have? And I was certain it had nothing to do with her body. Many other women here had even more banging bodies than she does. My stomach twisted in ways I had never experienced. I hated it when he called her repeatedly. His eyes wouldn't even leave his phone in anticipation of her call. I thought that Shawn wasn't capable of loving anyone. I used to think that he was for me alone. That he will be mine only as my father has commanded him to

Chapter: 090SHAWN. Ending the call, I handed the phone back to Jackie. My head was already pounding and I needed air. I needed distance from her too. But, most importantly, I needed to go and see Normani. I just ended a call with the Don. The way he spoke made me realise how delicate the situation was. “I can’t leave yet,” I said, stepping away from her. “I have somewhere to be. I need to see Normani first.”Jackie’s eyes narrowed instantly and I could see the anger settle in both her eyes. “Your mistress? While your wife is standing right here?”I clenched my jaw. She knew exactly how to irritate me and I wasn't going to allow her to do that today. I wouldn't have had the chance to see Normani at all if today hadn't gone as planned. “Don’t try to pin anything on me. You asked for this yourself. You are the one who suggested we flirt and have fun with other people until the wedding.” There she was acting all innocent when it was all her. Her! Her breath hitched, anger rising in her throat.

Chapter: 089NORMANI. Every part of me wanted him so much, it was starting to feel like a crime to want him. He pinned me against the wall securely and slammed into me repeatedly. He went on and on. Giving no breaks, digging his nails into my skin. The shower kept wetting my skin. The steam in the room mixed with the smell of pleasure. His cock kept hitting my core, digging deep into my walls. I dug my nails into his back, screaming as he persistently rammed into me without mercy. It was just what I wanted. I was exhausted, but when it came to him, fatigue was mere words. “Yes. Yes. Yes.” I shouted as he slammed into me deeper and deeper. “Good girl… come for daddy.” His raspy voice hit my ears and flicked a button inside of me. I rocked against his cock, the fullness of it pleasuring me. “Yess daddy, yesss…” He slammed even harder, hitting my core over and over. One of his fingers went over my clit, stroking his thumb over my bud. I could already feel an explosion coming by this time. M

Chapter: One hundred and forty fourISABELLA POVAlex was waiting for me at the foot of the steps when I stepped out from the graduation hall. He had a huge bouquet of flowers in his hand and an exotic car behind him. A new one? I ignored it and focused on him.I rushed down the stairs, holding the ends of my gown in one hand and my graduation cap in another. I jumped into his arms and he circled his arms around me, holding me tightly to his chest. I laughed in his neck and wrapped my legs around him. I could feel the petals and the scent of the roses cradling my back.“You came,” I whispered, laughing.“I’ll always come for you,” he responded.Slowly, Alex let me down. I slid down his body before my feet touched the ground, and then he kissed me. I melted, pulling him closer.“Congratulations,” he whispered, rubbing his nose on mine. “You did it. You fulfilled your dreams.”Tears filled my eyes. I hastily wiped them away before they could ruin my makeup and turned to look at the school. I couldn’t believe I had finally

Chapter: One hundred and forty threeISABELLA POVAn hour later, Brianna stirred from her sleep and called for me.Alex sat on the floor outside my door, his back against the wooden frame. The paper lay between us, untouched. Neither of us had spoken since I read it—there was nothing to say."Isabella! I have to go now!" Brianna’s voice rang out.I shook off the fogginess in my head and jumped to my feet. Sensing my urgency, Alexander moved away from the door. He opened his mouth to speak, but I acted quickly, pressing my thumb to my lips—a silent signal for him to stay quiet.When he nodded and said nothing, I left the room and went to meet Brianna. She had washed her face in the kitchen sink and was picking at her things when I joined her.“I have to be somewhere this evening,” she told me absently. “I have this terrible headache and I know my homemade soup is going to cure them, so ciao!”“Okay, bye,” I answered meekly.She straightened and kissed the top of my head. “Congratulations again, my love. I’ll see you soon,

Chapter: One hundred and twoISABELLA POVBrianna clicked her glass to mine. “Congratulations, friend We did it. We got in.”I took a deep gulp of the champagne. My insides burning with the warm, fuzzy feeling, almost like I was in love.“I can’t believe it.” Eyes wide and bright, I pointed to the open screen of the tablet in front of us. “We got an admission into the university? That fast? And together?”Brianna squealed in excitement. She twirled and did a little dance, sipping her drink as she moved. “This is wonderful! I get to go to aviation school, and you to modeling school. Together, we’ll become the biggest names in the world!”I laughed, dropping my glass on the table. “Bri, I’m going to be a designer. I can’t believe this. My model dreams are coming through.”She stopped in front of me and took my hands. “I’m in with you, my friend. We’re in this together.”Tears brimmed at my eyes. I tried to blink it away, but not before she saw it first.Brianna rolled her eyes. “Girl, please. Before you say anythin

Chapter: One hundred and forty oneALEXANDER POV I waited impatiently while the doctor spoke with Madison and the doctor assigned to her. I could hear her screaming at the top of her voice, trying to indicate her innocence.I didn’t want to be here. This was unnecessary and I didn’t like that I was here experiencing this. The two officers started towards me. I braced myself, waiting for them to tell me that I wasn’t needed.“She’s stable now, but I’m afraid we’ll have to come back later and ask questions,” the first officer said to me.I nodded, waiting for the bomb. “So what am I still doing here?”“You can leave, but we’re just informing you since you’re responsible for her.”“How am I responsible for her?” I glanced between the both of them, highly suspicious. “I already gave my statement and everything. I don’t have to be here.”“You’re the father of her baby,” the first officer pointed out. “You’re somewhat responsible for her.”“How the hell am I… I’m not the father of her child!” I exclaimed. “We never even… it

Chapter: One hundred and fortyISABELLA POV I froze, pressing the phone to my chest. Has she heard me? Oh god, what if Madison had heard me make that call?“Stay on the line, ma’am,” the phone operator’s voice broke through the silence. “We’ll be there shortly.”I quickly hung up, now sure that Madison had heard me. She cracked a long laughter as she slowly made her way to the cellar door, her wooden club making a thumping sound as she came, announcing her presence.“So this is where you hide,” she tainted. “Scared little Isabella. I thought you were brave, huh?”“What the actual hell.” I started to crawl deeper into the small room, looking for a place to hide. “Alex, why did you have to have the craziest people?!”I raised my phone to my face and quickly sent Alex a short text:“Help me contact the police. Madison is trying to kill me.”Madison hit the door aggressively with the wooden club, making me jump.“I’m coming in now!” She called. “I’m coming to end this once and for all.”This was a small space.

Chapter: One hundred and thirty nineISABELLA POVOh, don’t give up! Don’t give up on me, baby...The song played from the radio. I sighed, dragging my luggage from the bedroom to the living room. The house was dead silent as a ghost, so quiet that I could hear my breathing. It felt like I was the only one alive.“Oh Edward…”My eyes landed on a small picture of him by the semi-long branch on the living room wall, where books and antiques hung. He looked younger then—back in college, just earning his degree. That was his happiest picture, the one he loved the most.“I’m sorry I ruined your life,” I murmured. “I wish I could take back the hands of time but…”But I wouldn’t want to go back.Meeting Alex is something I would never regret, and perhaps if I had not met Alex then, we wouldn’t have the relationship that we have now.“I messed everything up. This is all my fault.”Yeah, it might sound like a typical victim blaming, but I don’t feel so good right now. Imagine finding out that Edward had left the house to me and a

Chapter: New Alert!!!!Instantly, the air around David crackled with tension. He swiftly shed his suit, the fabric feeling heavy in his trembling as he handed it over to Richard, who felt like crying at the back of his boss—this was all his boss had been working for in the past few months: to have Miss Rowan to himself finally, without fear of Flora hurting her again. Just then, James' phone buzzed, interrupting the silence that engulfed the atmosphere. Seeing the caller, James picked up at once. "Hello, babe," James said into the phone, drawing curious glances from David and Richard. To them, only Rowan would receive such a nickname. Seeing their suspicious gazes, he switched the phone to loudspeaker. "Hi, Naomi, you can speak now," James invited. "Miss Rowan has been rushed to the hospital. She's unable to fly; she started having contractions before she entered the plane," Naomi informed them. Before James could reply, David snatched the phone from his hands. "Miss Naomi, this is her husband at the ho

Chapter: The wedding dayThe room was alive with happiness as Flora jubilated, knowing that in a few hours, every TV station and blogger would be buzzing about her wedding to David Thompson, the president of the Oregon group of companies."As the heiress of Seraphims Holding, I only deserve the best," Flora declared from where she lay on the bed, with Andrew planting kisses on her neck and along her jawline."You know I will compensate you handsomely. I panicked when I found out David had regained his memory but didn't want me anymore. I thought everything was over, after years of patiently waiting," Flora confessed, a smile playing on her lips."I've told you that you don't have any problems. Since you've opened up to me about your true feelings and that it's me you love, and only his money you desire, since you've promised that it's my child you'll carry in his house, then I don't have any issues. The wedding is set to proceed, and in a few hours, you'll be Mrs. Thompson officially, but inwardly, you'll be M

Chapter: Steve decision It had been a few days, and tension hung thick in the air as Steve returned to James's house to deliver his response. The silence that filled the room was deafening, each breath heavy with anticipation. Jessica, though she thought she was prepared for any outcome, couldn't help but rub her hands together nervously. Ryan, sensing the tension, rested his head on her lap, his instincts picking up on the palpable anxiety swirling around them. "So, brother, have you finally made your decision?" James asked, his tone harsh yet tinged with regret. In the past few days, he had come to realize that his emotions had clouded his judgment. He understood that everything Steve had done was out of love for him — Steve didn't want him to lose the love of his life, just as James had lost his. It was this realization that had prompted James to allow Steve to make his own decision, even if it meant James would have to bear the pain of parting with his brother, if only for a while. "Yes, kid brother,"

Chapter: Knowing the truthWhat?" David's father asked, surprised by his son's allegations. "Dad, answer me. Are you involved with her too?" David demanded. "No, I'm not. And I'm disappointed that you would think so little of your father," David's father said. "I don't care, Dad. If she knows something about you significant enough to trade for my safety, then it must be substantial, and I need to know about it today," David said defiantly "Sit down, and I will tell you everything," David's father said. Reluctantly, David slumped into the chair, his anger palpable, emanating from him like a dark cloud. "Firstly, I discovered the kind of person Flora was after you started seeing her. Knowing how much you love her compelled me to dig deeper. I didn't want you to end up with the wrong woman. After finding out that she was involved with different men, I decided to confront her myself instead of letting you do it. During our conversation, she confessed that her uncle had forced her into those situations and that

Chapter: Secret"What do you mean, David? It was the marriage certificate we both signed, isn't that what we both wanted back then? Just because you didn't have the memory doesn't change the fact that your mother is aware of it, and a mother can't lie," Flora's voice came over the phone, her tone laced with frustration and desperation. She wasn't even attempting to come to David's house, realizing she had nothing left to lose."Flora, even if it is true, I don't want this marriage anymore. We have to annul the certificate," David stated firmly, using a word he never wanted to utter."What? David, are you trying to use me and then discard me? We've been dating for almost seven years. Now you don't want me anymore, and you didn't consider the repercussions it will have on my family and me, on the company, on everyone who believed we would end up together... I won't force you, David, but think about the consequences. We are legally married starting next week. If we don't announce it publicly, I don't kn

Chapter: Where did you get it?Naomi could only hum softly as she listened to Rowan's teasing remarks. Bending down, she reached for the coffee cups placed in front of them, an order she had made for both of them. Savoring the warmth, she took a delicate sip before carefully placing the cup back on the table.Inwardly, Naomi grasped the subtle undertones of Rowan's words. Since meeting James, she felt a shift within herself, a desire to embody qualities that might earn his admiration. But could she confide in Rowan that the catalyst for her change was the very man who harbored feelings for her?"Miss Rowan, I can't say there's any love involved. Let's just say someone's critique nudged me towards self-improvement," Naomi replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. Rowan's gentle smile lingered, leaving Naomi to ponder if her response had hit the mark."You know, being challenged by someone and feeling compelled to better oneself because of them, well, it's akin to love. You might not realize it now, but soon enough
