A Contracted Affair. Forty four
Tristan's pov Anna insisted we tell Mr Gregory about the deal the next day, I didn't know how she was going to handle this but I trust that she would handle it. "So when we meet up tomorrow I would do the talking" She said and I nodded, "Why didn't you tell me you studied science in college?" I asked. "And what's the need?, I thought you investigated me besides I'll be gone after two years" She replied with a shrug. "What if I intend to keep you with me after two years?". She averted her gaze from the laptop and gave me a puzzled look, "What do you mean?" She frowned battling her long eyelashes. "I know you can't wait for the contract to be done with so you can be with Wilson" I knew she hates Wilson but I just want to see her reaction, "So you think I'm into him?. What a pity" She shook her head and continue her research, "I need some space you are suffocating me" She dismissed and I sigh. "Do you know how to design one?" I asked and she shook her head negatively

Adrianna's pov Kristy told me she was kidnapped much to my surprise she seemed happy about it, "How is that a good thing to you?" I asked puzzled and she laughed about it. "You need to see Axel he was so pissed and he made sure they all died for laying their hands on me" She tried making sense of the whole thing but I still don't get it, "So you're saying you let yourself get adducted so you can put his love to test?" My mouth was wide open in shock what if she was killed or worse raped. "Yes exactly and Axel proved me wrong, He is here right now and he wants to speak to you" She informed me and I roll my eyes, "Hello?" I expected his voice to be cold but he sounds friendly, "Hey you most be Adrianna?" His Scottish accent made me wonder how Kristy even met with him, God I hate clubs there are always different animals there from different countries. "Yes the one and only, You must be the one trying to take her away from me" I tried to go with the flow, He doesn't

Adrianna's pov "Don't try to outsmart me again, I'll let this slide only if you be a good girl for me" He licks my earlobe and I flinch feeling tensed and irritated. I hate this man with my whole being now and there is nothing he would say to change that, "If Tristan finds out about what you're doing.."."There is nothing he isn't aware of and I told him I want you" He interrupted me with a smug grin I so much wanted to slap off his face. Wait is he trying to say his cousin gave him the go ahead to do this?, My eyes shone as the words hit me "There is nothing he isn't aware of" I stared at him in shock "That can't be true, He would never.."."But he did and you can't do a damn thing about it, No one should know about this and you can't tell anyone" He straightened up and put his hands on his pocket. "Mira knows and she saw you here" I knew Mira would gladly do anything to tanish my reputation. "Don't worry about it she won't tell and I can handle it, Give Tri

Adrianna's pov Should I dismiss him the same way he did to me yesterday, I really shouldn't be the one to cause conflict between the two cousins. Mira is mine to handle she's a woman like me so I can handle her, "What did Mr Gregory say to you?" I asked ignoring his questions, "Answer me first" He insisted and I roll my eyes. "Why do you care?" the back and forth questions between us went on until he finally gave up, "I'll just wait till you tell me yourself" He sighed. "What makes you think I would tell you myself?" I raised an eyebrow at his assumptions, "Mr Gregory is just like you described, He tried to make me stay for long but I did as you told me to " He said ignoring my question. "Did you check if there was a tracker on your car?" I asked him, "I didn't go with my car, I used Wilson's" I shudder as he mentioned that name, I'm beginning to dread that name which is exactly what Wilson wants. "Oh I see" I didn't take the decision far from there I just wan

Tristan's pov I didn't know why I felt worried about her when I saw her crying like that, Her mother was doing well I made sure of that and I call my nurse to check up on her twice in a week. She refused to tell me why and I agreed to let it go if she wants to keep secrets from me then she would be on her own, I wasn't expecting the question she asked me and I knew something triggered her to ask. All thanks to Wilson she knows about Lyla well she doesn't know but I can't t stand her saying that name, I was beginning to forget about her then she brought up the issues again I can't sleep properly. Lyla keeps hurting me and accusing me of cheating I know it's based on my imaginations, But my imaginations aren't suppose to come to life and hunt my dreams, Adrianna did well threatening the old baldy he was shaking by the time she left the office. "Let's get to it" I stood up and threw a wipe at him because he is covered in sweat and fear, My admiration for Anna just

Adrianna's pov I can't believe I had it all wrong I really thought she was alive or they wanted to keep their relationship a secret, I'm so stupid to believe what Wilson was telling me I should have known he was just trying to break us. Maybe that's what he thought but unfortunately he made us even more closer, "I'm so sorry" I couldn't even look at him in the eyes. I'm so stupid I feel like hitting myself now, "It's fine I really loved her and I can't see myself with someone else" He sighed and I felt something moved inside me, I feel like I'm responsible for making him relive those sad memories. All because of my curiosity I kept pushing him till he confessed why he wanted a contract marriage, "I'm sure she will be proud of you wherever she is now, I know the pain of losing someone you love it takes time to heal and sometimes you can't heal but eventually you'll" I forced a smile, He nodded and stood up. "You should go to bed now, I will make sure Wilson doesn

Adrianna's pov I gulp when his car pulled up in the parking lot, Today was uneventful and boring I was hoping Mira or Wilson will come bug me as usual but they didn't fall for my trap. I'm a ticking bomb as it is now I really need something to transfer my aggression to, The chocolates helps and the movies were a good way of distracting me from my plight. "Tristan is back" I mumbled for the third time I had being hoping he would be late, Maybe I would be asleep by the time he comes in but he proved me wrong. "What do I do now?" I whined, How do I even face him?. I can't believe he noticed me this morning gosh this is so embarrassing and I hated the fact that I'm all red even without seeing him yet. He opened the door and took off his jacket, Of course my attention was fully on the movies I was watching but I could feel his gaze on me. "I'm back" He announced like I care about if he's back or not, "I can see that" I replied and chew on the chocolate chip, "Are y

Tristan's pov She just stared at me like I was nuts I can't believe she is rejecting my kind gestures, "Just eat I won't scold you again" I assured her but she didn't move an inch. I groan and pull the chair to sit beside her, She turned and diverted her attention to her phone the reason why I'm overreacting is because I don't want any trouble. She could die for taking drugs without prescription and without food, "Open your mouth" I ordered and it sounded weird even to me, She ignored me still on her phone. "Adrianna don't do this" I warned and she sighed before keeping her phone, "I can feed myself Tristan leave me be" She retorted taking a piece of grape from the tray. "See, I'm not handicaped" She roll her eyes and I instantly gave up, "Fine make sure you finish every single meal on this plate" I stood up to leave. "Yes master" She mocked rolling her eyes, I left to take a shower today was really hectic and frustrating. Mr Gregory was whining about my work
