SCARLETTCaelum came home tonight, he came early but he also went out just as quickly as he came in. I'm becoming accustomed to him not being here at night, and only getting to me around three or two in the morning. I want to be a typical wife and whine about it but I can't, I'm not a typical wife. Caelum is used to me whining about which dress to wear, what suit he'd look good in next to me and which diamond set I'd like next and I'm not about to change that.My husband is my best friend, we've worked hard to keep our marriage normal as possible and we did have an agreement before we tied the note, Caelum told me one thing and one thing only, "Don't fall in love with me because I can never love you back. As much as I would love to love you like a husband should, I can't Scarlett, I'm not capable of loving like that and if you do fall for someone don't hesitate to tell me so I can free you from this sham we're getting into." This sham as he called it has become the most truthful thing
AURORACaelum bought me a car, a silver grey Mercedes Benz. It arrived last night and he threatened to keep the driver honking if I didn't take the keys so I did. I took the car keys, I've never really owned a car but I've driven several owned by clients. The interior is baby friendly, and I know for a fact Layla won't stain anything on it. When the driver gave me the car keys, he also handed me an envelope in which I later discovered the dealership papers of the car and they name me as sole owner, Caelum didn't even ask me beforehand. I don't understand why he's doing all this, getting my daughter toys, buying me a car, why all this for someone you deeply loathe? Because I highly doubt my submission quality is good enough to get me this car, although where my mouth screws up, my pussy makes up for it.When I finally took the car keys, I turned back to several annoyed neighbors and complaints of how noisy I am as a tenant, if I'm not busting music in mine or Olivia's then it's my gues
CAELUMI'm talking to the cops when the ambulance arrives, I don't know where I've gotten the patience to stay calm with these men while my father is losing his life, I'm surprised I haven't pulled my gun out on them. They haven't let me get a word in, instead they're explaining how many traffic and road rules I've broken on my way here and when the ambulance arrives, they shut up, apologizing for keeping me.I rush to my parents backyard, with the paramedics still at the ambulance, gathering a stretcher and other items. My father is sitting straight up with Aurora on one side, and my mother on the other side when I get there. Aurora is helping him drink something while my mother pats his back. My half brother Garrett and his wife Deborah are here, they reside two houses away from my parents so I see how they came here this fast. My sister's Siena and Gianna are here too, Sienna is being comforted by Deborah, while Gia watches the scene from afar, I don't note a look of horror on her
AURORA AGE FIFTEENNeo has been hounding me at school lately, it would seem he doesn't know when to quit. He started a rumor that I was dating an older man with a car but that only escalated my popularity and nobody believed him, because there is no way in hell the preacher's granddaughter would date a man that old. I did post a picture of Caelum laying on my chest just to spite Neo and that surely put an end to rumors of an older man. I know I shouldn't indulge the fool but it's been fun and I could care less about all that shit.Caelum introduced me to his grandfather, his grandfather! The man he considers most important to him met me and he loved me because he'd met me already. My sister Liana and I had been volunteers at the nursing home he was in and the man was hard to please but eventually, we found our rhythm and made peace for the weekends I was there.I can't believe a guy like Caelum is interested in a girl like me, it's surreal. It makes my stomach among other body parts f
CAELUM AGE EIGHTEENMy parents have been calling me to go home but I don't want to go back, I like it here, I like being near grandfather and I've discovered another thing I like about this place, something I hadn't met when I agreed to relocate overseas for school.My Aurora. Mine, she's mine and I'm never letting her go, I've never met someone who can easily lift my spirits. If anything, I've felt dead and lost for the longest time in my life but when I net her, something in me ignited, it ignited with a burning force. I'm actually thinking to relocating to here, I've found my happiness and heart in this here town.I wish I met her sooner, wish she was the first girl in my life, that girl is so delicate and innocent, I want to give her the works before she even asks for it. When I do meet her parents, I'm going to thank them for being so loving that it imprinted on their daughter, they've got a wonderful daughter and I hope they know that. Grandfather likes their daughter too, he ap
I toss the panties safely on my dresser, moving back between her legs, and she voluntarily spreads them wide. I look between her legs, my gaze meets with her glistening pussy, the sight makes my cock throb harder in my shorts. I lick my lips at the sight, utterly hypnotized by her. I've known she was mine from the second I saw her but her offering me her purity to taint confirms it for the whole world, God himself a witness in this moment.“And now, little princess,” I groan into her lips and she moans. “Now I’m going to taste all of you.” I tell her, my fingers now tracing higher and higher up her smooth thigh. I lower myself so I'm between her legs, my thumb shivering as it traces her wet pussy.“Caelum.” she whispers, her voice doing all sorts of things to me.I stroke a finger over her clit, her hips buck against me in response, a needing moan falling from her lips. I lower my mouth onto her skin, kissing and gently biting at her inner thighs before moving my lips to her pussy. I
AURORAYesterday was chaotic, but I'm glad it ended well. Caelum's father is doing alright now, and he scheduled an appointment at my mom's hospital, aiming to change and have her as his doctor because if I, her daughter who has no medical background managed to save his life, she can do more. Emelia had come to her parents house almost immediately after they left with Caelum, and I too took my daughter and left when she showed up. Sienna, who seems to have taken a liking to me wouldn't let me leave, she even followed me all the way to my car and put her number in my phone. She's sweet, but she does too much if I'm being honest, she's way too hyper for little ole tired me but drunk me? Heck yeah, we would have a blast together because drunk me has no boundaries, drank me knows no worries, she has the perfect life but she screws up mine, leaving me with hangovers and ex's to sort out.I like Emelia's siblings, they're all close and witty with their interactions, my sisters and I fight a
AURORASomething pulls me into the darkness, I try do hard to stay in the light but that voice, that taunting laughter that irritates my soul is hard to ignore. I want to ignore but it's too late, it pulls me back, sending me to him.I don't like this man, I don't like way he touches me, it makes me feel filthy and I can not do anything about it. His rough hands graze my thigh, slowly moving up, I hate it but I don't speak, I don't move an inch, maybe he'll go away if I play sleep long enough. His hands are erasing every good memory of being touched I've had engraved in my head, it's damaging me. He finally pulls away, I think he's leaving, but I can still feel his shadow on me. His hands push at me from the tiny bed, crashing me into the cold hard floor, causing gasps to erupt around the room.I cry out in pain, opening my eyes to his large frame staring down at me. He leans over, grabbing a fist full of my hair. It hurts, it hurts so bad I whimper. “Please don't,” I sob.“You think
CAELUMThere was a time when I was desperately pleading with Scarlett for a baby, and now that there's light of us having one? I'm not thrilled, I want to be thrilled, I want to be happy about it but I can't find one fatherly bone in my body to help me. Possibly its the wrong timing that hasn't sat with me but I'm having a hard time connecting with Scarlett on the news. Still, I have to consider her feelings, I shouldn't have reacted as irrational as I did because at the end of the day it takes two to make a baby.We made that baby, regardless of how drunk I was, it's time to face up to my actions. I was going to divorce her but now, I'm not sure what to do but I do know that I can't let another man raise my child and I don't want Aurora to further suffer.I'm drunk, and high as a kite, craving more because what I already took isn't doing the job, making me forget. My phone lights up with yet another message from Aurora, she's ecstatic planning for her store opening. I've given her a
CASSIANI've spent the last week with my fiancé and her family, as annoying as she is, we've got some common ground. She's not my ideal choice for a bribe but close enough, she'll have to do. My choice in a woman is near to Caelum's choice but less fiery, the kind of fire that Aurora exudes would scorch me a little bit. I've been in contact with Aurora throughout my trip, and her near death experience that rattled Caelum appears to have done the same to her too.I had ordered a few beers and texted my party people about the party I would be holding at my place tonight, to celebrate my return from my short trip but if I'm being entirely honest, it's to celebrate the misery that has not yet befallen me as I prepare for my marriage. Emelia and Aurora said they were not coming because they would be enjoying a night out in the city by themselves. Those two have formed what Ryker, Bishop, Caelum, and I had built the moment we met and it comes just as effortlessly. It's pure, my fiance will
EMELIANAI park my car outside a familiar neighborhood, I've been to it during my high school days I must say there's been major improvements made. I used to have a boyfriend that lived here and now I don't even remember his house. The feeling of nostalgia hits, but I ignore it and focus on my phone, checking the red dot until I see my location close in on a gated household. The gate is open, so I hurry inside, sure to close it behind me.Gianna called me an hour ago, she sounded hysterical and I couldn't catch what she said was happening so I decided to drive to her, using the tracker on her phone. She knows about it, which is why she insisted that I go and get her, minus her providing me with an address. I assume she just had an argument with one of her spoiled friends and now she wants her big sister to get her. This is nothing new there but it's usually Sienna's craft not mine. Hell, I'm just glad to be called.Knocking on the door, I wait for someone to open it for me but I get n
SCARLETTI've waited up for Caelum all night, he didn't respond to any of my text messages or calls, and eventually I couldn't get through to him. My parents are beyond mad at the way he stormed out, Mom was worried it could have been a family emergency so she called Caelum's mom and she said, according to her knowledge nothing alarming had transpired.It's seven in the morning, I have a magazine shoot at exactly 9 a.m and I'd be dammed if I breached the contract because my husband went MIA on me, again. Eva will be coming to pick me up, she already texted me to say she's on her way.I'm ready, trying to hide the bugs I have under my eyes from waiting up all night for Caelum to show up. I had spent the entire day decorating this room to surprise him, and now I want everything in this room gone, I don't want it taunting me to recall what I thought last night would be like vs what it actually went like. I'm about to open my bedroom door when it opens, the door slamming into me.“Fuck.”
CAELUMMy heart is racing, I just saw her this morning. How is she not okay? She was fine when I left her yesterday, ecstatic even. I'm speeding through traffic to get to her but I fear I might be too late. Bella called an ambulance to her apartment right before she called me. When I declined her call, she texted me saying Aurora wasn't feeling well, and from there, the messages got worse, alarming. I couldn't sit in that restaurant any longer, I wanted to get to her. Bella is no longer answering my calls, and I'm still far from Aurora's apartment. With Bella not responding to my messages, I fear the worst has happened and if so, I hardly believe in miracles but if anything happens to Aurora, God better perform one or get two for the calling of one. I don't know how it is that I stayed sane without Aurora, but I can't do it twice. I've had year's of therapy to get over Aurora, until I realized it wouldn't work and quit, I'm not ready for an eternity of therapy to cope with never bee
SCARLETTMy parents are in our city, and Caelum, and I to be having dinner with them, and after that Caelum is taking my mom to see her favorite opera while my father and I go to a twenty-four hour running amusement park. It's tradition, one we don't break but now, as I stare down at my phone it would seem like I've seen the last of this tradition.“Scarlett,” my mother calls out from across the table, her voice startling me.My phone slips out of my hand and drops to the floor beside me. My gaze instantly jerks up to meet my mother, “Sorry.” I blurt out, proceeding to pick my phone up.“Honey,” my mother squeezes my fathers hand but I know she's addressing me because her gaze doesn't leave mine. “Where is Caelum?”And there it is, I can't make up any more excuses for him, I don't know what lies to form for them. Caelum has been putting off dinner with my parents for the longest time now, and it's not like him. Caelum is punctual with his schedule but lately, his schedule means nothin
**************Fifteen minutes after Caelum rudely ended our call, Cassian's driver arrived to pick me up. I insisted on driving behind him because after whatever nonsense Caelum is wasting my time on, I will need to pick up three more little girls then go back to my parents house for Paulina. Cassian's driver left me ten minutes ago, he led me to a newly constructed yet famous shopping complex. I'm familiar enough with the place to know that his family owns a jewelry store here, one run by his other sister, Sienna. I've seen no sign of Cassian, despite seeing his BMW in the parking lot there's nothing else suggesting his presence. I've left him four unanswered messages and I'm just about pissed off by his temerity. Stymied, I fetch my phone and open his contact card, calling him one time before I follow through with my already made decision to leave this place. The phone rings and just when I thing it's going to die out, in the very second, he picks up. “Hey pretty girl.” I can a
AURORA“Paulina sweetie, did you get your backpack into the car?” I ask, seeing her run past me. Paulina, Everleah and Layla have a girls day party at my house tomorrow and to start, I'm having a sleepover for them tonight. I had to invite Layla's sister too because I want to grow up around her siblings seeing as I'm not planning on giving her any, perhaps I could adopt in a few years but right now, just Layla is fine.Paulina doesn't respond but a few seconds later she runs back, “Auntie?”“Did you put all your things in the car sweetie?”“Yes,” she nods. “I'll go double check to see if I didn't forget my fluffy bunny.“Okay, hurry up because we have to pick up Everleah too, and Sapphire.”“Aurora!” my mother yells from the kitchen, she's been confined to it for the last hour. I was starting to think she was simply avoiding me, and I would have thought it if she didn't order Chinese takeout specifically for me.Entering the kitchen, I see my mother in her apron, with prints of white
CAELUMThe hospital chose to keep me under observation under mom's request. I stayed to ease her worries, if not I would be back to work, or tinkering weak for Aurora's attention.“I love you.” I whisper to her, watching her sleep on the bed. It's been two days, I get minor headaches and my arm right hurts, I've been told to not overwork it but it's my favorite of late, I am both left and right handed but my right touched Aurora better. She came over as soon as she dropped Layla off at school, we had been talking nearly all night so I know she hardly slept. Looking at her now I feel contend, like I have my old Aurora back.The bed was swapped out for a bigger one by the physician because every time Aurora walks in, I want her laying next to me. The door to hospital room opens, revealing my sister on the other end, with a bouquet of flowers. “Hey,” she faintly smile, walking past me to set the flowers in a vase. “From mom.” she tells me, her gaze shifting to Aurora on the bed. I see a
