"Addison has been the sole provider for her siblings ever since their parents passed away. But in an unexpected turn of events—and after one too many drinks—she wakes up to find a ring on her finger and a god-like man beside her in bed. 'Hello there, my dear wife,' he says."

That’s when I finally noticed the sound of my phone ringing. I turned to look at the side table where my clock sat—eight in the morning. Since I don’t have a job anymore, I didn’t need to wake up early.I’m not job hunting again until tomorrow. I figured I’d give my brain a break for now. A lot has been happening lately—it’s honestly exhausting. My mental health is really taking a hit because of everything.Mama and Papa’s visit.My heart sank when I realized it wasn’t a call, but a yearly reminder. Today marks Papa’s 12th death anniversary, and now, it’s Mama’s 2nd. Even now, it’s hard to believe we’ve lost both our parents. We’re orphans.“Okay, Addi
"Look, I don't want to get married yet. I still have a lot to do in my life, and becoming your wife isn’t my priority. You don’t really know me that well, you don’t know much about my life, and the same goes for me with you. We’re the same," I felt like I was explaining things to a five-year-old."Why?" He kept looking at me. "I’m not a freeloader. I can give you a life, I can even support you, so why not?"I stared at him, still in disbelief at what he was saying. "I’m not getting married for convenience, you think this is just some stomach ache? I want to know the man I’m going to marry.""Then do as you please." Does this guy always have an answer for everything? Every time I say something, does he have a rebuttal? Is that how businessmen are, never giving up?"I want to get married to the man I love," I said, and he fell silent. Ha! Got him. See, I can shut him up after all."Then you can love me," he r
"Let her out," I couldn't tell if it was just her normal voice or if she was about to eat someone alive. Her eyes turned dark, and it seemed like anyone who crossed her path at that moment would be stabbed."Bossing, we can’t do that. She’s one of the suspects in the investigation..." Ravi didn't let the officer finish and immediately dragged him in front of me."Let her out, she’s my wife!" Everyone in the station was staring at us, even the ones locked up with me, "Even if she kills someone. Let her out, I’ll bail her out."Is he crazy? Doesn’t he know that murder is non-bailable? Idiot.The officer didn’t speak and quickly opened the cell, letting me out. Ravi just stared at me. I didn't know how to talk to him. Two months ago, I saw him on TV, looking for me, and here we were meeting in this situation.But maybe I’ve really lost it, I went all out in my madness, and my body just moved on i
"Here, do this, print it out, and give it to me," Kiray ordered, speaking in a commanding tone. She has the nerve to boss me around even though we have the same job. It's really ridiculous."Didn't Sir give you that task? Why are you passing it on to me?" I asked, staring at her. I could clearly see how her face turned from pale like a tomato to a shade of burnt orange. Heh."I’m busy! Just do it! You’re so lazy!" she shouted and stomped her foot. I could hear it loud and clear because she was wearing high heels that looked like something you'd wear to an extravagant party. Every day is fashion day for her. But her work? Never finished, just Excel sheets, and she doesn't even know how to use them properly. It's so annoying."I don’t want to," I replied simply, turning my back to her and continuing to encode the account numbers. In the two months I’ve been working here, my tasks have become all mixed up. Sometimes I encode, s
“Explain everything now,” Kei said, irritated, as she stood with her arms crossed in front of my siblings, who were staring at me in shock, their eyes wide in disbelief.“I don’t know exactly what happened,” I started, and Kei raised an eyebrow at me. “Remember when we were on the island, and I got drunk, then when I woke up, there was a guy next to me?” She seemed to be thinking about what I said.“OMG! That’s the guy?” I nodded. “The guy you slept with was Ravi Lincoln Spencer?!” she screamed, and Jane and Macoy suddenly rushed toward me.“Why didn’t you tell us about this, ate?”“He raped you?! You’re a rape victim?!”“He’s super rich, you don’t even know him?!” They all started speaking at once, so I didn’t know who to respond to first. Their faces were so close to mine now.“I don’t rememb
“Addi, are you okay?” Jane greeted me as I came home.No, I’m not okay. Something terrible happened today. I kind of expected this to happen, but not this soon.“Yup, how’s your thesis going?” I answered instead, then entered the house. I found Macoy laying down the rice he had served. Dinner was already on the table. It seemed they finished their schoolwork early and had cooked.“It’s fine, but there’s one groupmate who’s really annoying. She’s always on TikTok, dancing around, but never contributing to the thesis. So my groupmates and I left comments, and then she called us, asking why we were bullying her,” Jane continued while we ate. It was clear she was frustrated with her classmate. Well, I kind of expected it. I’ve been through college too, so I know stuff like that can happen.“How about you, Macoy? How was the quiz bee in the North?” I remembered he represe
“Where have you been again?” I asked my siblings when I saw them sitting in the living room with branded paper bags on the floor.“Oh, hello, my BFF!” I quickly turned my attention to the direction of the stairs, where Kei was coming down carrying four paper bags. “Why are you home so late?”“Why are you here? I thought you left and were supposed to be back next month because you’re expanding your new business? Why are you back here again?” I asked as I walked to the kitchen and grabbed a cold glass of water from the fridge. My eyes landed on my arm, which had a bruise.Those idiots at the bar were really out of their minds, so rude. They’d just see a woman in a skirt and think they could hit on her, even a post would do. But what did I expect? I went to the bar, so I should have expected men like that—hungry for attention.“I had to get something signed by my boss, but he was at the
2 years Later"Oh my God, I forgot! Wait, OMG, what am I going to do? The presentation's in a bit!" I almost laughed at Cassandra's panic mode. She's always forgetful, but this was the first time she hadn’t prepared a presentation at all.I shook my head and handed her a black flash drive. "You better hurry, get yourself together."Her eyes turned into heart shapes when she realized she was safe for the afternoon presentation, and the creepy boss wouldn’t be taking her down.“OMG! Thank you, bestie! You’re my lifesaver!” she said, her voice full of joy, hugging me tightly. "Thank you so much! Don’t worry, I’ll treat you with my salary! I love youuuu!"I just laughed when she released me, quickly heading back to her desk on the other side of the office. I sighed and returned to my desk. At this compa
"Applicant?" the woman, who I think is part of the admin staff, asked. I nodded and quickly adjusted my skirt, making sure my black suit was in place. I was here for my job interview at a large company.Lady Corporation, a well-known clothing line company, had posted a job opening, and I saw it right away. They didn't need to post it everywhere; they had their own site. Everyone wants to get into this company, and I’m one of them. The rumors say they offer good salaries, bonuses, and benefits, and they aren’t too strict with their employees.They are also known for their charitable work with many institutions, and they don’t discriminate whether you’ve finished school or not. As long as you meet their basic standards, you can get a good job there."Alano, Addison?" I stood up immediately when I heard my name. I wasn’t overly nervous because this was my fourth application, but I had to stay a
I can’t help but to close my eyes when he claimed my lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen our kiss. I felt the red dress I was wearing fall from my body.The man I was kissing lifted me on his arm and I wrapped my legs around him. He slowly laid me down on the soft bed.I groaned when his soft lips went down my neck, slowly planting small kisses. my eyes opened when I felt his hand crawl. he was sucking my neck and I couldn’t explain how overwhelming the sensation was.His electrifying kiss went down even more. One of his hands crawled behind me. He unclasped my bra and took it off. He kissed me in the middle of my breasts.“Jesus. Can I sleep in between of these, sometimes? They look comfy.” he laughed.I cried in pleasure when his kiss went on one of my tits. His warm lips I felt on one of my chests while one of his hands was on the other side and massaging it.I was exhausted when he played with me there. When his tongue moved in circular motion, that’s when I totally ...
