"If you don't let go of me before I open my eyes, I'm going to make sure you don't live to tell the tale of how I slain you!" Isabella screamed at Seth while trying to yank her hands off his tight hold.Would anyone seeing them wondered if she was angry? Of course, they would. And was she indeed angry about the whole mess she was facing? Extremely so. Why? Because she believed him. Because she almost gave in to his seduction. Blame her erratic hormones because of her pregnancy or blame her because she haven't had sex in over a year or blame her because she always admired Seth's handsome features from afar before, so giving in to him wasn't so hard. Whichever one the thought might be on, she was guilty as charged. No excuse whatsoever."Just take off your dress, woman. I'll make sure you enjoy the sex and also pay you for your time," Seth tried again. His body was already on fire for the woman. The more he smelled her hair, the more his body reacted to her. He needed to have her. It do
"Bestie! Bestie!! Bestie!!!" Mrs. Allen yelled as she let herself into the small home of Mrs. Rogers and her daughter. She looked around, ignoring the untouched meal on the faded table in the living room. "Where are you, Grace?!" She yelled again.Mrs. Rogers came out of the kitchen with a towel which she used in wiping the water off her hands. She has on an apron that was relatively still new. It was so because Isabella recently bought a new one."What are you going on about, B? Why are you screaming your lungs out?" She asked the blonde woman who simply snickered at her."If you didn't want me shouting, you should have just answered me when I called out to you the first time." Mrs. Allen rolled her eyes at her best friend. "Fine, fine. You win. Just like always."At those words, Mrs. Allen became sad."Hey, what's wrong?" Mrs. Rogers inquired from her."It seems I didn't win this time, bestie." Mrs. Allen said in a resigned tone."What exactly happened? Are you sick or something?" M
"Let go of me! Let go of me right now, you arrogant man!! You selfish, self-entitled jerk that cares about no one else but yourself!!!" Isabella screamed her protest. Her waist felt on fire and she felt like she would collapse if the callous man dragging her continued with his unjust treatment of her.Seth heard the numerous commands she gave him but he chose to press his ignore button and not listen to anything she said. He needed to talk to her, so he wasn't going to let her off the hook unless they settled what was causing conflicts between them both. And by that, he meant the baby.As it stood, he was already tired of everything she was making him pass through. If not that he needed that baby like he needed the air to breathe, he would have cut the woman loose a long time ago.At the rate the violence between them kept increasing, he was sure that either of them would get injured badly. Didn't she try to injure him just some days back? Didn't he sustain an injury because of that a
Seth! Isabella screamed again, unable to hold herself. She felt like she would lose her stomach and her lower body part to the pain that took over her.Seth was just about to step a foot into his mother's house when the wind carried Isabella's voice over to him. He wanted to ignore her for the most part, but then, he heard the agonized cry in her voice. That forced him to look behind him.When he turned around, he saw her clutching her hands together in a death grip. The down part of her flowing gown clogged to her legs and it was obvious that both the dress and the legs were wet. He frowned at her as she began to move up and down, sometimes tickling her hands. Something was happening to her, he thought as he quickly rushed back to her."Seth!" Isabella screamed again as she began to fan herself."What's wrong with you?!" He yelled at her when he saw how she was twisting up and down like a noodle about to break into a million pieces. "Mom! Mrs. Rogers!! Both of you, come out here!!!"
Seth watched in fascination as his babies slept in their cots. After the nurse and the doctor had announced that one more baby was coming and he had watched Isabella pushed again with all the strength she had left, she had produced a bouncing baby girl.Yes, he was now a proud father of both a boy and a girl. Something he never imagined would happen to him in a million years. Double bundles of joy delivered into his life at once.He chuckled to himself in delight as he stood up from the chair he sat on and went straight to the dots. He picked up the baby girl first and began to smile at her. Even though he knew that it was useless since her eyes were still closed, he continued to grin from ear to ear, not caring about what people would say if they caught him in the act.Once he was satisfied with the delightness he showered on his baby girl, he dropped her gently back into the cot and picked up the baby boy. He repeated the same action on him and clicked his tongue multiple times while
"Are you okay, ma'am?" The nurse checking up on Isabella asked her with a smile.Isabella had just woken up a few minutes ago. She was surprised when she saw that Seth didn't leave her to get some sleep at home. When she complained that she was hungry, he promised to get her something and went out immediately."I feel better and lighter now that I don't have to carry two humans in my stomach and look like a hippopotamus." She joked with the nurse.The two of them shared a laugh and Isabella clutched her stomach a little."Are you okay?" The nurse asked her."I'm fine. I guess it's just the uterus contracting back to its right size." She assured the woman. "I guess I just have to minimize how loud I laugh for the time being." She chuckled softly."Oh, that's right," the nurse supported her. "I have to check on other mothers in the ward too. But don't worry, I'll be back to check on you later in the day." "Oh, okay then. Thank you for checking on me.""It's fine. After all, you are my f
"Congratulations to the newest parents in San Francisco!" Mrs. Allen, Seth's mother, screamed as she jumped into the room suddenly, startling the two people who were too busy ogling one another to even listen for footsteps.The loud scream seemed to bring Seth out of the dazed waves he placed himself in. Isabella oh the other hand quickly placed her exposed breast back into her dress since the baby in her arms had stopped crying."You forgot to mention Los Angeles too." Mrs. Rogers added to it as she popped in also.The two of them were oblivious to the interruption they caused between the two couples."Yeah, that's right." Mrs. Allen nodded her head in support.Mrs. Rogers clicked her tongue on the roof of her mouth to annoy her friend, B. When the other woman growled at her softly, she smiled and turned to her daughter. That was when she noticed the thick tension in the air."Were you two fighting again?" She asked as she looked from her daughter to Seth."No, mum," Isabella answere
Exactly a week later, Isabella, the newborn babies, Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Rogers, and Seth all filed into the Toyota Camry car that Seth had driven to the hospital that morning to pick them all up since Isabella and the babies got discharged earlier that morning."Are you happy now that you and your babies got discharged as you wanted?" Mrs. Allen asked Isabella who simply nodded."Yes, I am," Isabella answered. God knew that she hated hospital and she was already more than tired of her stay at the hospital. When no one had listened to her when she kept hinting that she wanted to be discharged, she had gone to the doctor's office to get herself discharged. But then, the doctor in charge told her that Seth had already gotten her discharged.That was thoughtful of him on his part, if she wanted to be honest with herself. But still, it doesn't mean that she wanted to have anything to do with him or even allow herself or her babies to be within a quarter mile of the man."Is everybody seated r
"What about the flowers?!" Seth yelled, running around the house as if he was possessed. Oh, he was possessed alright. Possessed by the need to make sure everything was perfect. Over the past week, he had learned so much about proposals, his head was heavy and filled with ideas. He'd come up with a plan to charm Isabella and get her to say yes. But then his plan got thwarted because a little birdie told him Isabella was coming to LA that day. He had wanted to pass out when Anna called him saying Isabella was arriving that day. He wasn't ready! Heck, his mother hadn't brought the flowers yet and Isabella's mom was struggling to hang balloons on the wall of the living room. "Gahhhhh!" He yelled, yanking at his freshly combed hair. "Stop that right now! It took me an hour to make it perfect!" Nate yelled from behind him and Seth shot him a glare. "How about you focus on ironing the suit instead?!" He replied."How about you iron your suit yourself! I'm not some fucking Valet. I have
"Shit! Shit! Shit!" Seth muttered when he heard the door to the house open. She was running off! Again. And it was all his stupid fault. What the hell had he been thinking?!He hadn't even been thinking at all. "Fuck!" He yelled, pounding his fist into the bed. Who could blame him?! His brain had been mashed up in the affair, he hadn't his wits around him. Saying that had been the most natural thing to do. Well, congratulations! You've managed to repulse her. He groaned, dragging a hand down his face. He had meant to mess things up. He had just wanted to make her feel special, nothing more! But instead, he had blown his plan to bits by jumping the gun. His chest hurt, and it felt hard to breathe remaining in bed as his head replayed the way she had looked at him as if the very thought of marriage disgusted her. Rising out of bed, he searched for his shirt. Or was it the very thought of marriage to him? Seth paused, a deep frown etched onto his face. There was no way she was repuls
"Hot damn," Seth panted, his head lolling against the sofa. "Fuck Bella, that was intense," Isabella smiled proudly, staring up at him. He looked so sated and quite adorable with the way his green eyes snapped open and closed at different intervals. His voice had grown thick and hoarse from groaning and she giggled. She liked this. Knowing how helpless he was to her touch. Knowing he felt intense pleasure when he was with her. Knowing that she could drive him crazy as much as he drove her crazy. "Come here," he ordered, spreading out and patting his thighs. Biting her lip, Isabella climbed on him, sighing when his semi-hard member lay against her core. Seth buried his face in her neck, kissing her at intervals while fondling her breasts. His hands found her nipples and pinched them. Isabella squirmed, getting wetter by the second and moaning at his ministrations. Beneath her, she could feel him get turgid again. "You ready?" He asked, green eyes burning as he stared into hers. "Y
When Isabella woke the next morning, Something soft and warm was pressed to her nape. She shook her head, trying to shake it off, but it simply slid down her neck in the most sensual way possible causing her to sigh deeply. "Oh that feels good," she muttered subconsciously. "Yeah?" A deep masculine voice penetrated the sleepy haze that surrounded her. She frowned. Where the hell had that come from? "Relax baby," the voice said soothingly and she found herself relaxing into the bubble of passion that encased her. She wasn't stupid, she knew who it was. She knew it was Seth, and that she was supposed to be mad at him. But oh she couldn't resist. The wonderful feel of his tongue on her skin drove her crazy with desire, setting her loins on fire. The night before, after they had both done the dishes. He had offered to watch a movie with her and like the dumbass she was, she had fallen asleep. When she woke up, it was Seth carrying her to her bed and telling her he would sleep right ne
CHAPTER 149"It was madness," he whispered. To hear him clearly, she moved closer to the door and placed her ear against it. As if he sensed her, she heard him drop to the floor and place his head on the door. Seth closed his eyes, trying to recall how he had felt while he was in a coma. "I couldn't move. And there was this thick darkness as if I was suffocating with nothing in sight." He sighed and listened in to hear her soft breathing on the other side. So fucking adorable. "It was you, you know? You kept talking and singing and doing all that shit and it was soothing. I told myself that at least if I was lost, I was lost with you. And I was fine with that Bella, you know? I was fine with just being with you. I couldn't even hear half the things you said but it was good enough for me to know you were around." Isabella blinked and tears slipped down her cheeks. Sniffing, she wiped the tears away and listened more. "When I awoke and you avoided me, I felt pretty stupid. And angr
"What are you still doing here?!" Isabella yelled at the wide-eyed man who stared back at her, the stupidest grin on his face. She had stalled at the office, wasted time like no man's business, all in hopes that he would have left by the time she got home. But in all honesty, a part of her was thrilled to see him. That part was even more delighted to see he was dressed in her apron and no shirt underneath. Her body stirred with a rather heavy need to hump him and that spurred on anger. Why the hell did he look like he belonged there?! His hair, blonde and touseled playfully fell over his green eyes. His muscles flexed and contracted as he walked towards her, smiling. "You're home," he grinned, leaning forward to pat her hair. As if she were some five-year-old in need of fucking reassurance. It was all too much! She had left him just for a day and he had turned her apartment and life upside down. He was making fish broth! Fish broth! She couldn't remember the last time she had mad
Her house was quite serene, Seth mused as he wiped the kitchen windows with a soaked napkin. The house was quiet and peaceful and he wasn't sure he could remember the last time he had lived in such a quiet environment. He had to admit, the scenery was beautiful. All green, with tall trees that swayed from side to side. I could stay here forever with her, he thought with a stupid grin on his face. After finally seeing her, after all the many days he had to spend without her, he could live in a fucking igloo as long as she was there. He would need her fire to keep warm. "And God knows she has too much of it burning inside her." He muttered to himself, inspecting the cleaned window, and nodded. That was the last window to clean on his window-cleaning journey. It wasn't like he had anything better to do than to wait for Isabella to arrive from work. Another grin wormed its way to his face and he chuckled. It was quite ironic, she was at work and he was cleaning the house. Like some hou
Dash it! Dash it all to pieces, Isabella thought as she walked into the company. She was mortally exhausted and it had everything to do with the blonde in her house with sparkling green eyes that made her legs jelly. His stupid grin, his infuriating smirk, and his deliciously hot chest drove her crazy! Isabella tossed her head in a groan, trying to get rid of the image of him in her head. How the hell was she supposed to do so? He infiltrated her senses and drove her insane with desire and anger, it was madness! All she could think about, all that had kept her up all night was the feel of his mouth against hers. Hard and demanding. She ought to have kicked him out immediately when he stepped into the shower with her. Scratch that, she should have thrown him out the minute he stepped into her house. But Isabella had yearned for him, every minute they were apart. Every fucking second was a torture she felt she had imposed on herself. When he stepped in, discarding his clothes until he
Isabella turned in her bed the next morning and groaned in pain. Pressing her hand to her head, it hurt a little.“Maybe it was the wine," she thought, getting out of her bed.Strangely, she had dreamt of Seth. Remembering it, she felt disgusted and excited at the same time.“Thank God it was only a dream," she said as she left her room. Stepping into the living room, Isabella noticed Seth curled up in a blanket. He had passed the night on the couch. “It was not a dream, after all, fuck this hangover.” She said, rolling her eyeballs.Memories of the last night came back to her, and she remembered walking out on Seth during dinner when he refused to tell her why he was there. With the way things turned out, she expected that Seth would be gone, but there he was sleeping peacefully on the couch. “Am I admiring him now?” Isabella thought to herself. She had stood there for some time staring at his face.She walked back to her room quietly and sat on her bed. Checking the time, it was b
