Nathaniel’s PovA loud sigh was the only thing I could do and I did it continuously. Before telling Rayner about it, I have continuously asked myself when it all began and I have fought against saying it out but I guess it wasn’t for too long.For the past few days, I have bonded so well with Rayner, we always spoke to each other, talked about business, and even had sex countless times in one night. When I first penetrated Rayner that night, she was very tight.Rayner was a bad bitch in bed that after every sex, she wanted another one. Was she the problem or was I the problem because I give her more than enough satisfaction was still what I couldn’t lay my head on.After that first night of us getting intimate, I was still asleep in the morning when I felt Rayner’a mouth on my stick and I was worried for her because the previous night, I had thought I was doing wrong by indulging in her request while she was drunk but with her clear eyes now, I can say she knows what she did.Rayner e
Nathaniel’ PovI watched Rayner as she walked past me heading to our room. There was still a tiny bit of hope seeing her walk to our room, I didn't want to follow her immediately so she wouldn't come up with losing her appetite.I was already sad watching her sad so I can't ruin everything more than this. She soon came outside and handed the dishes over to a maid who was passing by and entered the room again.I stood up from where I was seated watching her but something in me told me to wait and I did. Later I felt at ease and then decided to go in.She was just coming out of the bathroom after taking her bath cause her body was wet. I coughed pretending to clear my throat but deep inside of me, I wanted her.Rayner was looking hotter than before. It was funny how I realized there and then that Rayner’s shower clothes fitted her body so much. Her hips kept telling me to come to touch it but I dare not.Rayner soon began to apply some oil on her body and she began to glow and my man d
Rayner’s Pov Since Nath spoke about getting married for real, I just felt and concluded that the best thing I could do was to avoid him. I could tell he was already feeling the heat of it because he was always moody but I didn't care. We had an agreement and from what he said, he was planning to break the agreement and I didn't want that. Nath was way ahead of me for me to settle with him. The hundred days were getting closer and I liked it. In a few days, all these will be over and the stupid feeling he had for me will also be over. When Nath asked me to follow him to a meeting he had with his campaign members, I didn't want to go but when I thought about it, it would be better to go. If I could remember clearly, he needed me for his political ambitions too. I have begun a countdown for the days left already, it was a bit far but it was still not as long as the hundred days. Despite all the money Nath had, he was still not able to pick professions or people who knew what the ca
Rayner's PovBefore we slept last night, Nath had asked if we could make the next day a visiting day where we would visit anyone we could.I liked the idea of it because ever since Mom returned to her place with a maid Nath sent to take care of her, we have not spoken for long.If I get to spend time with her, she will be very happy about it. I accepted and Nath cuddled me till I fell asleep and that was it.Woke up to Nath looking at my face while smiling. I couldn't help but blush when I saw his cute eyes on my face.“Good morning Mine,” Nath said and kissed me on my lip.Mine? What happened to him calling me Rayner and Little Tigress? I just hope his feelings aren't growing because he will get his heart broken by me.“Good morning, Nath.” I greeted back and he pecked me.“You look very beautiful this morning, Nath said.“I just woke up and I haven't had my bath, so how do I look beautiful?” I asked him.“No matter how you look, you will always look very beautiful in my eyes so lear
Rayner’s PovIf I am being honest, Betty did ruin my mood cause that is the only thing she is good at but going to Mac Jayson’s place would be a cure, that I was very much of. Mac Jayson was always a mood lifter and every time I was with him, I always felt safe.Nath held my hands while I looked through the window to calm myself. Mac Jayson’s place was a bit far from Betty’s, so after I looked through the window for a while, I began to feel sleepy and rested my head on Nath’s shoulder.Nath gently placed his hand on my shoulder and then began to pat my back and gradually my eyes became heavy and I soon slept off. I was woken up by Nath with a kiss on my hand and I realized we had arrived at Mac Jayson’s place.“Do you want to wait a little or we can go in while you sleep a little, don’t forget, Mac Jayson gave you a room.” Nath reminded me.Mac Jayson had given me a room the day I came around to visit him and then there was a heavy rain that I couldn’t go home and he offered me a room
Rayner’s PovThe break for workers was over and Nath and I had returned to work after spending a good time together. The end of the break should have just begun in a new week but it began on Friday.The previous day, after receiving one of the best gifts from Nath and Mac Jayson, I had thought that would be all but I was wrong because when we got home, Nath asked me to go to the room first while he spoke to the head of the maids.I yielded to his instructions and headed to the room. I pushed the door open after turning the knob only to get welcomed with another surprise. The room was decorated with balloons, a few wrapped gifts on the bed, and a lot of boxes too.I took my time to count the boxes and they were twenty-five in number. It was not for me so I waited for Nath to return and in less than five minutes, Nath was with me in the room.“You haven’t started unwrapping your gift?” Nath asked me and then it dawned on me that truly, the gift was for me.“Is everything on this bed for
Rayner’s PovWe got home and Nath helped me to carry my bag as we walked in. As soon as a maid opened the entrance door, I suddenly missed my house.The feeling was just so overwhelming that a picture of how my house would have looked came to my mind. My things would have either been scattered all over the floor or they would have been arranged ready to be scattered again by me.“I can’t wait to return to my old life,” I murmured only to my hearing. Nath, although walking beside me, had his eyes glued on his phone, perhaps he was checking something.We got inside and Nath’s phone rang, I guessed the person he had been talking to had finally called him. I quickly had a shower because my body was itching.As I stepped out of the bathroom, the feeling surfaced again, for real, unconsciously, I was missing my house, my old life and it was getting stronger.I put on my dress in a hurry and rushed to check my jotter to see how far we had gone in the contract. I put on my dress and then turn
Rayner’s PovNath sneaked in after taking the call the previous night and by then, I was already sleepy. I knew when he entered but I was just too tired to open my eyes. He worked a little before he carried me from the couch in the room to the bed where he cuddled me till I finally slept off.I woke up before him and checked my email to see if the client I texted had replied to me. To the few who replied, I also sent my response, and just like I promised, I quickly brushed my teeth and then went to the kitchen to prepare something for Nath and me.“Good morning ma’am.” The maid greeted me when I walked in.“Good morning, trust you had a wonderful night's rest,” I said.“I did ma’am.” She replied and then continued, “Do you want to make breakfast for Mr. Blackwood?” She asked.I smiled at her and then nodded, “Yes, did he tell you what he wanted to have?” I responded and then asked.“No ma’am, but last night, he came around and when I made inquiries, he said if you are the one who woul
Rayner's PovKen dropped me off at my apartment before he left. As soon as I shut the door, I fell on the floor. My head banged, my eyes hurt but I couldn't find the strength to stop crying.The pain was one I didn't think I would ever go through. Catching Daniel in the act was painful but the one with Nath was more painful even when I didn't see him in bed with Natasha.I cried until I slept off, then woke up and continued. My phone vibrated, and I tried to see who was calling me.I pressed the power button of my phone and the screen lit up. The light from the screen almost blinded my eyes and so I quickly shut my eyes.I opened it gently, opening and closing it immediately till I could finally open it very well. It was Mum who was calling. I was in the mood to talk to her so I gently locked my phone.I managed to stand up from the floor right behind the door where I had cried and fell asleep. I walked to the bathroom, took a cold bath and went to my room.I fell on the bed, putting
"Miss Rayner, are you okay now?" Ken asked me.Ken had parked the car by the roadside and stepped out. I noticed he stood behind the car while I cried my eyes and heart out.My eyes became heavy, and not only that, it started to ache me, but I didn't stop crying. I asked myself a lot of questions that I couldn't answer.It felt like I had been betrayed. Like I had been used to while away time. I didn't have to think about it much; the lady Nath held was Natasha.The sight of how he held her hands so dearly flashed before my eyes, and that caused me to cry even harder.I was considering stopping when Ken came to the window and asked me if I was okay. I wiped the tears on my face, sniffed, and nodded slowly.Ken turned around and entered the driver's seat. He looked at me for a few seconds before he started the car."Where do you want to go Miss Rayner?" Ken asked.He didn't move the car till I responded. "I want to go back home," I informed him.He nodded and moved the car. The car rem
Rayner’s PovI lifted the upper part of my body from the bed immediately I woke up and it came with a banging sound on my head. I lay down again and shut my eyes. Perhaps, I got up too early, just right after I woke up.I took in deep breaths as I waited for the headache to relieve me a little so I could do my chores and get out to achieve my goal for the day. A smile broke out from my face as the memories of Nath and I came to my mind.The previous night, I had thought about what it would be like to talk with Nath again. I didn’t know for how long I was lost in thought but I eventually slept off while still thinking. I panicked because I didn’t know what it would be like to be in the same space with Nath again.My greatest fear was how he would react. Would Nath be calm so we could talk calmly or he would be aggressive toward me for wanting to divorce him which led to the accident that almost cost him his life?My thoughts all through the previous night ran wild. A lot of things goin
Rayner’s PovI entered the department with a bright smile on my face. The first thing on my mind was to record the huge sales I had made and then plan the next day. I felt it would be a long day for me so I needed to plan it.I input my sale on my profile and right before my eyes, my point from from seventy-eight to eighty-five. I blinked severally to be certain I wasn’t seeing the wrong numbers but I saw right. I jumped up and spun taking my time to move my leg as I further danced.Something that looked so impossible was something I was got with so much ease. I thanked Nath in my heart before I moved my chair backward to sit down. As I moved my head, the side of my eyes caught Christy's eyes on me. She looked at me with so much hatred that I could tell if she had the power, she would have killed me.I intentionally lifted my head, looked at her, and then gave her a bright smile revealing my teeth to her. She looked at me from head to toe with her lips tightly closed and then looked a
Rayner’s Pov“Welcome once again to Cee Enterprises Sir.” I greeted the man who sat opposite me.He beamed with a smile as he grinned from ear to ear, his legs were crossed with one resting on the other while he relaxed his back on the chair. I smartly put away all the business papers with me.It was time to know who the man was and who directed him to me. I also relaxed on the chair as I remembered the lesson Nath had taken me through some time ago. He requested a glass of water and rather than taking his orders, I called someone else to get the water.“So, you are Mrs Blackwood?” He asked as if surprised to see who gets to be called Mrs. Blackwood.I smiled while he also smiled. Because the person who I asked to get us water brought two bottles, I took my time to open mine, and sip from it before I replied to him.“Well, you do not have to be so surprised or do you think I am not worthy of being the wife of Nathaniel Blackwood?” I asked.I was being careful with my words. I didn’t w
Rayner’s Pov“Another day to face some ugly faces,” I muttered as I opened my eyes.I quickly got dressed and headed to work, the previous day's drama from Henry had made me get to the office late which I didn’t want to happen again.Henry kept calling me all through the night but when I didn’t take his call, he sent a text message that claimed he wanted to apologize for what he did but I didn’t care. He was out of my life and I didn’t want to hear from him anymore.I got to the office before everyone and I was glad I did. It was a good opportunity for me to sort out my files and the clients the delivery team had yet to send their gadgets. I began as soon as I sat down and before the next person entered, I was halfway done.Soon the office became full and everyone was busy. I could see the shock on Christy’s face when she saw me already at the office and even busy. I sent the clients that are yet to receive their gadgets a text. I wanted all my clients to get their good before I would
Rayner's Pov“You are? Who is the lucky guy?” Ken asked, his eyes glistening as he blinked.He looked like a baby who had seen his favorite food and couldn't help but jump around happily.I bit my lower lip, lost in thought, as I looked for the best way to put it to Ken so he wouldn't misunderstand me. At last, I found a way."The guy from this morning. Nathaniel Blackwood, it was a contract marriage thing which I didn't want to do in the first place but later went for it cause of my job and promotion which did not even go through along the line, I fell for him but we were in a contract marriage so I have to follow the rules.""These few days, I thought my feelings for him were dead, but seeing him today, I knew I still love him." I sunk into the car seat my gaze through the window as my heart aches with worry.Ken bit his fingers, his eyes on the wheel as he thought about something before he turned to me."Do you want to go back to him?" He asked genuinely. His eyes told me he had a
Rayner’s Pov“Hmmm.” I breathed out, tired and confused.I had just one person I could talk to and that was Ken. Betty was busy with her life and I understood that setting up a family wasn't an easy peasy.“Ken? Can I talk to you? I need your opinion on something.” I said after I had mustered all the courage I had left in me.I barely knew Ken but it felt like I had known him for a long time. I genuinely respected his help and if he didn't look so young, I would have concluded he liked me and just wanted to get close to me.“Yes, Miss Rayner. Always feel free to discuss anything you find disturbing and want to share.” Ken said to me with a smile that revealed his not-too-white teeth.I faked a smile and turned to the window which Ken had earlier let down so a fresh breeze would stamp my face and give me that refreshed breath and look.I took in a deep breath and then breathed out heavily. I was ready to tell Ken what my thoughts were about everything.“Say you have been so unlucky in
Nathaniel’s Pov“Mr. Blackwood, the cup is filled,” Davis called out to me when I didn’t stop as I filled my cup with tea.My mind was filled with a lot of thoughts, not about the same thing but about different things, but it all linked to one thing: Rayner. I couldn’t stop myself as I thought about our meeting and Why the heavens allowed us to meet.Davis had noticed my mood as soon as I stepped into the office and had refused to leave my sight. It’s good to have staff who have been with you for a long time and are very familiar with your mood.I had volunteered to get my cup filled myself, although Davis requested to help me, but I declined. I looked at the floor and it was a mess. I shut my eyes in regret, but it couldn’t be compared to how overwhelmed I felt.I felt worked up but I couldn’t give a good reason why. The clients I was in so much hurry to meet couldn’t make it, and that made me sad. I would have waited for Max to get done with the car; I wouldn’t have gotten in contac
