A Deal With Mr. Baron Eight: My Husband Is Infertile.
His hands caged her slender waist, fastening her gliding hips to his own. Francesca looked down at her husband with a whimpering cry escaping her agape lips. His expression was uncertain but one could tell when a man was close.Beads of sweat trickled down the side of his face as he raised his hands to enclasp her untamed breasts that bounced in the shadowy silhouette across the walls. Francesca faked her moaning like she was about to cum but his was a lot realer.There was a way Aaron usually scrunched his nose, holding around her back and breathing into the side of her neck. And whenever they fought, this was the easiest way to release all the anger and the tension. Deep groans that built up from the back of his throat met the hair across her neck as Aaron shot his seed inside of her. Synchronizingly, she matched his exclaim before she was tossed to the bed. She stood almost immediately while he laid limp with his hands across her chest. “Where are you going?” Aaron didn’t even dart
A Deal With Mr. Baron Nine: Bring Her To Me.
A frantic knock on the bathroom door drifted her out of her thoughts and Emma trembled with the pregnancy test in her hands. When the door drew open to Damien, she had managed to hide it beneath the sink and she heaved a deep breath before turning to him.A suspecting glare assessed her from head to toe and he wondered why she was fully clothed after being in there for half an hour. She scoffed, turning back around to wash her hands and he peeked into the crystal clear toilet.“What are you doing?” He asked.Emma wiped her hands across the velvet towel before brushing past his shoulders. “I was on my way out” He was convinced only after a few seconds, after when he closed the door. “They’re still looking for Sofia” Damien continued and Emma shrugged, confused about what to do with such information.“Ferdinand called, her mother is worried, asking whether we’ve been in contact since she went missing” Damien leaned against his desk as Emma ran her hands through her hair. She took off he
A Deal With Mr. Baron Ten: I’m Pregnant.
The pitter patters between his fingertips and the keyboard was a sound that echoed through the room. It was all Emma Roberts could focus her ears on as she slipped her hands through her dress. Her eyes remained fixated on the man in front of her and she had been heaving breathes in the hopes of getting Damien's attention. He was so concentrated on his work that he never even looked at her.He usually didn't because there was always something.Blowing raspberry, she put her foot against the ground with a thud and finally he lifted his gaze to the woman on his bed. "We should go out, don't you think?" Emma asked in a gentle tone and his brows arched because she rarely ever asked him out. "What's the occasion?""I don't know. Cant we just spend some time together—just the two of us. When Sofia was here, it was because of her but now that she's gone, nothing has changed. You almost never look at me anymore and i feel somewhere in your heart, you resent me for a choice that you made.""I'
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eleven: Our Little Secret.
From where she sat, Sofia could see the large outstretched roofs that soared into the skies above Salem. The wind was eerily cold and she held tightly to savor her cup of coffee. Occasionally a passerby would roam across on a phone call, be it the street photographers or just the normal coffee drinkers like herself. It was a peaceful town which was something strange.However, she moved not an inch as she sat with her legs folded up in her chair. Her hands fell to her keyboard and over the last half an hour, she had pondered on the perfect opening sentence for this book she was working on. An opening sentence that made a point—that was bold and still somehow captured her sense of humor.It was tough, trying to write again especially with a lot of things going on. Just then an ice cream truck with a whistle drew her out her thoughts and coincidentally, she brought her eyes to Theo who had been just opposite her ever since.“You want?” He scoffed with a smirk and she rolled her eyes to th
A Deal With Mr. Baron Twelve: The Other Woman.
Mr Winters lifted his gaze from the plate of food in front of him. He halted his chewing, seeing his wife had barely eaten anything, for the last few days even. And his hands dropped the cutleries to his plate before gulping down some water.“Theresa” Ferdinand called with a heavy accent in his tone.Her eyes remained fixed on nothing in particular as she zoned out of that kitchen to where she was. “The police are doing their best to find where she is and Sofia will come back” Knowing what this was about, he continued and it was then Theresa darted her eyes back to him.They were red with sour patches beneath that had shown she’d been crying for days. She never stood up for Sofia when she was around and she realized how much of a grave mistake that was. Because now, not only did she lose one daughter, Theresa had lost two and when she looked into Ferdinand’s eyes, she faced the pain and her heart was stung by immense resentment.“It’s been one week” She gritted through her teeth and hi
A Deal With Mr. Baron Thirteen: Facing The Devil.
The satin hazelnut dress fell across her slender frame and with her hands clasping her hips, Sofia made her way into the banqueting hall. She had halted next to Oscar Baron for a few seconds and he had barely said a word to her.When the elevator doors chimed, only then did he link his arms around hers and they made their way into the chilly room and underneath the lavish crystal chandelier that dropped from the ceiling. In the process, a smile was quick to light up her lips as the hall immediately graced their presence with murmurs and several people throwing their heads over their shoulders. It was a strictly private dinner party with mostly his family members who ought to know he was married.That way, only them knew before the media did.And by the way Oscar darted his eyes back and forth, it was obvious amongst the guests, he searched for his own father. He had invited Ronald, not that he even expected him to be here but at least all the three Baron brothers were around—dressed
A Deal With Mr. Baron Fourteen: Let Me Go, Dimitri.
Sofia shuddered the moment she met his harkening gaze.Dimitri placed the phone into his pockets and with each step he took towards her, she took double backwards. With an earnest arch between his brows, he struck a finger at her. “You!” Came a tone that was lacey and very threatening and Sofia pushed a hard lump down her throat.Throwing her head over her shoulders, the corridors were idle with the door to the dinner party closed to the both of them and she had wandered into the garden, something that seemed to be the worst of ideas now once she thought back.“Were you eavesdropping?” He asked.“No” She blurted out in fright and you could tell from the shaky breathes that escaped her lips. The winds breezed into her crimson face and she found it difficult to walk with her back. However, she couldn’t risk breaking eye contact with Dimitri. Only God knew what he was capable of. He had a cold gaze that pierced into her glossy eyes, out of fear.“I swear—“ She stuttered.“I just came for
A Deal With Mr. Baron Fifteen: Don’t Ever Touch My Wife Again.
“What?” Sofia watched his eyes spark with rage once she’d told Oscar what had happened and immediately, he drifted apart from the wall and towards her. Setting his gaze around her bruised neck, he examined her injuries with deep breathes escaping his lips.“Did Dimitri—Did Dimitri lay his hands on you?” He just wanted to know one thing and that was it. Sofia tried to shake her head but his eyes darted to her ankles as well and he just knew it was him.He knew there was an altercation——that Dimitri dared lay his hands on his wife. “Oscar. Don’t try to save me.” She called him before he left and holding his hands back, he threw her a gaze over his shoulders. ”Let me go” He muttered, fuming with a rage to make the bastard pay. “You just stay right here” He withdrew his hands from her and charged through the doors, leaving Sofia to limp behind him. She held up her dress, trailing towards the banqueting hall where Dimitri had retracted to with pretense buried in his eyes as he conversed

FIVE YEARS LATER.“Aunt Annie!” A child’s scream reverberated through the halls before a little girl of about five years scurried into the room in a bright yellow dress and the first thing she did was embrace Ann who was waiting with her usual open arms.“How are you, Mia?!” She lifted the girl into her arms, adorning her flustered face with kisses. “Where is your mommy?” And just as she asked that question, Sofia scurried right after, Oscar by her right hand. “Have you got the keys?” She asked, panting from her lips and looking around the room perhaps for anything they might’ve been forgetting. But just for a brisk moment, Oscar reached out to her hands.“You look beautiful.” He didn’t fail to compliment her whenever she did, in the last five years at that. Oh how time flies, truly. And to say a lot had changed would be a massive understatement but then again, not so much, I mean Oscar and Sofia were still so madly in love with each other.“Mommy, aren’t we running late?” Mia called
A Deal With Mr. Baron Ninety-Two: Wedding Vows.
SIX MONTHS LATER.The sun was out on this chill Saturday evening and the winds filled the trees around the magnificent canopies. There were flowers of every kind and colors and balloons scattered across the garden fields. Everyone was seated with their eyes turned to the couple, the main reason they were here in the first place.“Theodore Baron and Victoria Freya Winters” The officiator called both their names and it was hard for a tear not to well in Sofia’s eyes in that moment. Her sister looked beautiful in that flowing white dress and it was exactly how they’d both envisioned everything since they were kids.Including her as her maid of honor and the same could be said about Theo who by his right hand side had Oscar beside him as well. In that moment, his eyes met Sofia ever beaming with a smile. Six months had passed since his very first surgery and all the events that came after. So did the second and the third, and now that the trial was over, there was only one final test left
A Deal With Mr. Baron Ninety-One: The Greatest Miracle.
Sofia was the never one to believe in miracles.Well that was until today. Three hours had passed since everything that happened, Dimitri’s arrest as the everything in context. And as she sat there, she kept replaying it all behind her eyes. She was wrapped with a blanket and Theo and Damien were right beside her.Of course they knew now of what had happened to Oscar and how Annie had dived in front of a bullet to save Sofia, falling off the building in the process. They were just as shocked as the person who unfortunately had to witness it all. It was no wonder she stayed quiet for those three hours, reeling in the aftershock and post trauma. However, the silence had to come to an end as the doctor came out of the room just then. She stood with aching feet, feeling like she’d always spent weeks in these particular hallway. Her lips parted but her eyes said the most words as the doctor heaved a sigh.“It was a success. You can go in now” The doctor broke the news and in that moment,
A Deal With Mr. Baron Ninety: Sacrifices.
“We can’t let her leave” Dimitri muttered to David, whose name Sofia had only just come to know. The two of them were at a safe distance but she could hear the murmurs from their lips. They stood at the foot of the door so her only likely escape was jumping down down the five foot building and she couldn’t dare to scream because Dimitri had already assured her his non reluctance to shoot if she tried anything funny.And so she stood there, with her fingers intertwined with each other, playing it off as though she wasn’t genuinely scared for her life. Her skin was pale and her face was flushed off every color. A million thoughts ravaged her head, most especially the ones about how she could escape.She wondered how unfortunate it was that she’d walked into yet another predicament but in that moment, half the thoughts that roamed behind her eyes were about Oscar. And each time she stared at Dimitri, she was so full of vengeance that she wanted to pay him back for what he’d done.Howeve
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eighty-Nine: Until His Dying Breath.
As Sofia stood there, she couldn’t even utter a single word. Her whole mind raced with a thousand thoughts as the chaos behind the curtains echoed back to her. Her eyes were flooded with tears and there was a shooting pain that pierced up her spine.In a moment, her eyes fell to her open hands and he was all she saw. It was as though she had drifted back to the moment that she held unto him, begging him to open his eyes…to wake up. But the hardest part was she wasn’t even certain that he could hear her. She wasn’t certain that he would ever actually open those eyes again. And hers, well they darted to the piece of sandwich that laid capriciously on the hospital floor and before she could even start blaming herself for leaving, something she would have never done if she knew things would turn out this way. And for what, for food.Before she could blame herself or further immense herself into the guilt, an arm drew her back. “Hey hey” That shrill rang into her ears and Sofia had to ac
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eighty-Eight: Nightmares.
There was always something so terrifying about nightmares. Especially for Oscar and so that was why when he plunged his eyes open, only to find out that he was surrounded by an impaling darkness, the first thing he did was scream at the top of his lungs.The atmosphere was cold, sending a chill up his spine so much that he shivered. The hollow halls returned an echo of his voice as well and he was too afraid to move even an inch forward. He hated the darkness, he wasn’t scared or, although there was something quite eerie in the air.He just hated being lost and in that moment, he was.But that was until a shrill whisper crept up behind him and Oscar sharply turned around. He could swear that someone was here, was close to him but alas, when he threw his head over his shoulders, there was no one. Maybe now was the right time to get scared.His hands fell to his side, feeling the crisp texture of his scrubs and as he moved forward, the noises were all he heard. It was hard to move with
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eighty-Seven: Far From Over.
“It’s been four hours” A voice echoed from behind Sofia and it wasn’t until she turned around that her eyes fell upon Damien. His hands slipped into his pocket with an elongated gaze right next to her. She threw a look over her shoulders though she still clung to the stairwell.“It’s you” She happened to mutter plainly before he raised his hands into the air. “Well I’m no doctor,” Damien teased. “But I brought you a sandwich and a cup of coffee” He stretched out his hands and while her eyes to it, there was the ghost of a smile that made it across her lips.“I’m not hungry” Sofia heaved but by the look in Damien’s eyes, she didn’t have much of an option but to cave in, taking the food from his hands. Though she sipped the coffee, she kept the sandwich aside and for a brief moment, there were comforted by the shrouded silence between them. That was before Sofia suddenly piped up after a few minutes.“Thank you by the way” She said.Damien folded his arms with a shrill nod. “For this as
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eighty-Six: To Live And To Love.
For the longest time, Ferdinand wanted to say those words to Theresa. It had even a really long time since we last saw him, rock bottom and fresh out of jail all while being handed divorce papers from his long term partner but just like everyone else, a lot had changed for him.And even more had come into perspective, like realizing how bad he’d been through the years, to Theresa, to Freya and then to Sofia. And now that he was all alone, he wanted nothing more than to finally tender his apology to those who he had hurt.But the fear that it might have been too late plagued Ferdinand, causing a few sleepless nights. There was no way he would have survived without Damien, who had come to the house to pick up some things and Ferdinand had told him everything that had happened.Damien didn’t have to do all of that including showing up at least twice a week but he did. He did because for him as well, everything had changed. Luckily, even as things weren’t as bad as they once was, he didn
A Deal With Mr. Baron Eighty-Five: A Blast From The Past.
The chilly rush of air breezed into Sofia’s face and through her hair, swaying it left and right across her shoulders. In case she drifted so far, the distinct scent of pharmaceuticals and the rapid beeping of the heart monitors both far and near were enough to remind her of where she was.She stood with her arms crossed in front of her, reminding herself by taking deep heavy breaths to calm down. Today was the day of Oscar’s first surgery which was a bypass graft procedure undoubtedly the most important and complex of the three he was recommended.The doctor might’ve said a million words to Sofia about how this was to repair the damaged blood vessels around his heart, both narrowed and clogged to improve his blood flow so it betters the chances of the trial working but it didn’t stomp her anxiety. It could be good but then again, she was well aware of the risks to know that it could also be terrible.So she stood still and even her deep breaths didn’t work so much. No one knew the am
