RICHARD'S POV

Startled a bit, I reflexively looked back to know whose hands were those only to see Kamara – one of the best strippers and dancers at the club. We sometimes have a good time together but with no feelings attached. We were just friends with benefits. The only thing between us was sex. Nothing more. Nothing less.

“Easy there tiger,” she chuckled seductively. “It’s just me. You know I don’t bite unless you want me to.”

Realizing it was her, I sighed and relaxed back in my seat. Her fingers slid to the valley of my shoulders, and she began to massage them gently. I purred. It was a good feeling, making me realize just how much I needed a full-body massage session. I couldn’t remember the last time I went to a spa for one.

“You like it when I massage you, you sexy devil?” she teased.

“Yeah, I do,” I breathed out.

After some time, she stopped and said. “Why don’t I do it somewhere else?”

Without waiting for me to respond, she appeared in front of me, spreading

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Pain and Hurt

    Chapter 59 BIANCA’S POV I stared at Bernard’s message for the hundredth time as I left the private elevator and walked towards the entrance of the penthouse. I know Nina warned me to steer clear of Bernard and his talk about Richard’s past relationships, saying it was all in the past and forgotten. But he seemed cool and friendly, and I desperately wanted to know who the girl was and what Richard did to her that made their relationship end badly, as he mentioned. And judging by Bernard’s expression at the coffee shop, Richard and the girl's relationship seemed like it ended very badly. But at the same time, I didn't want to do anything that would cause another problem between Richard and me. I had already caused enough damage. I needed to apologize to him for falsely accusing him and not believing in him. I didn't know if he would forgive me. It would be tough, but I would give it a shot.Letting out a frustrated sigh, I turned off my phone and put it back in my purse. I took out t

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   The Unknown woman

    Chapter 60BIANCA’S POV I couldn’t sleep properly last night so I woke up early. Gideon brought in the luggage I asked him to bring in yesterday, so I spent a good amount of time unpacking and organizing my things. Last night, I threw my toi et moi ring onto the vanity mirror but I didn’t bother to search for it this morning. I don’t think I will ever search for it or even wear it again. The ring symbolises mutual love. Eternal connection. But at this point, I don’t think Richard and I connected any longer. After I finished unpacking and organizing my things, I headed to the kitchen to prepare something to eat. I was sure they hadn’t woken up yet since their clothing and accessories trails were still as they were last night all over the place, and Gideon hadn’t arrived to tidy up. I thought of picking them up and arranging them, but to hell with that idea. I finished making coffee and toasted muffins. As soon as I placed them on the kitchen counter to eat, I saw her coming down the

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Aftermath

    Chapter 61RICHARD'S POVAt first, I heard the sound of something like ceramic shatter downstairs, probably from the kitchen. As I was getting dressed to go check it out, a shrill followed. I hurriedly put on my clothes and went downstairs, finding B with a mix of confusion, anger, and shock on her face. The stripper girl from last night looked upset and frightened, wearing one of my favourite shirts that was now ruined with coffee stains. I wondered why an adult like her would spill coffee on herself. I hate it when random girls who don’t mean anything to me wear my clothes when they spend the night at my place – it’s one of the rules they should follow, but I forgot to mention it to her last night.Hold on… is that blood on her face? I widened my eyes to make sure I saw it right, and indeed, it was blood. Her nose seemed a bit off from its usual shape. It was…broken. Broken bits of ceramic were scattered on the floor beneath them. The scene resembled the aftermath of a fight. What

    Chapter 62 RICHARD’S POV Luckily, Linda’s nose injury wasn’t severe and something to worry about. The ENT specialist at the hospital said procedures such as closed reduction, where the bones in the nose are manipulated into place without external incisions or surgeries aren’t required. He just realigned the broken bones and cartilage back to shape skillfully with his hand, which made Linda want to scream the entire hospital building down. Then he bandaged it up, telling her it would take about a few weeks before it could heal completely. Linda didn’t want me to drop her off back at the club, rather than in her apartment. According to her, she can’t be seen in such a state. It was too embarrassing for her. That meant she’d had to be coming up with excuses to keep her away from the club till her nose healed completely. That was none of my business. As long as I have paid for everything like I said I would and tripled her pay, all that wasn’t for me to worry about. As I headed back to

    Chapter 63BIANCA’S POVI can’t believe his response after I bared my heart and soul in apology to him. I know I messed up big time. I didn’t trust him, and I hurt him. I didn’t know it was to that extent. But I’m truly sorry for what I did. I have realized my mistake and I’m willing to make this marriage work again for the better. I’m putting my best in all this but he wasn’t making it easy for me. How can someone be so stubborn and selfish? What more do I need to do to prove to him that I love him? Haven’t I done enough already? Is love and marriage supposed to be this hard?As I watched him disappear out of sight and slam the door to his room shut, a painful and angry teardrop escaped my eye. I wiped it as quickly as it escaped. I couldn’t keep crying all because of a man. I had to be strong so as not to let him think he had the upper hand in all these and prey on my emotions.He said I had to do more to earn his forgiveness and rebuild our love and trust.

    Chapter 64BIANCA’S POVAbout an hour later, I reached Mr. Sam’s place, following his directions since I had never been there before. It was in the city centre and not too far away.It was a pretty simple duplex surrounded by a colourful lawn and garden. The walls had a nice light colour, and the roof had charming overhanging edges that gave the house character. Big windows let in lots of sunlight, and lively flower boxes were decorating them. The front porch was friendly and had a cute quaint swing. Overall, it was a nice and cosy home with a warm atmosphere, perfect for raising a family.I pushed the doorbell and waited. About a minute later, a brunette with freckles and large hickory eyes opened the door. She must be the nanny he told me about yesterday at the coffee shop.“Hi,” I offered a smile.“Hey,” she did the same, her freckles looking like they were multiplying.“I’m here to see Mr Sam. He’s around right?” I asked just to be sure because Mr Sam said I should come in thirty

    Chapter 65BIANCA’S POVShe sighed in frustration as she walked to him and carried him. Her words filled little Alex with more remorse and pain and he started to cry loudly enough to alert his father. She patted his back to calm him, apologizing on his behalf.“I’m so sorry, madam. He was eating quietly in his room before I came to open the door. I didn’t know he’d come rushing like that.” She looked extremely concerned at my dress, considering it was an expensive designer Nina got me last year for my birthday along with the shoes. They were some of my favourites. But not to worry, I couldn’t be mad at little Alex for just a dress and a pair of shoes. I was looking forward to meeting him, and couldn’t help but laugh inwardly at such a messy way we had to meet.“It’s okay,” I said. “He’s just a child.”I smiled at Alex. That quietened his cry a bit as he looked at me confused like he was trying to understand my expression. Maybe he expected me to scream at him or be mad like the nann

    Chapter 66BIANCA’S POVI had to wear Jessica’s clothes since they were the only women’s outfits in the house. Unfortunately, they were too casual and didn’t fit me well, as she had a larger bust, and I was taller. But I had to make do with them. I won’t be wearing them for long.After cleaning off the chocolate stain on my body, changing, and returning to the living room, Mr. Sam was already sitting at the dining table.

I took a deep breath, preparing myself. Whether the info about him was good or bad, I needed to stay calm and not break down in front of Mr. Sam.He glanced up as I came closer, our eyes meeting. I smiled, pulled out a chair from the table, and sat in front of him. I cleared my throat a bit to shake off the nervous lump and feeling.“Where is Alex?” I asked, looking arou

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Getting her back(The End)

    Chapter 174 RICHARD’S POV Approaching B’s family house, I saw B stepping out, but the moment she saw me, she ran back inside. My heart hurt from seeing how she was avoiding me. “B please wait. Hear me out first. I have something important to tell you. The pregnancy was fake…I know everything now…” I said as I rushed out of the car and chased after her. But I didn’t think she heard me as she quickly slammed the door shut down on getting inside. I banged against the door, screaming for her. Apologizing. Pouring my heart out and letting her know how much I loved and missed her. I didn’t care if I was constituting a nuisance or being absurd, I just wanted her forgiveness. I wanted her back. But it all fell on deaf ears. No one opened the door for me. I wondered if my dad had come like he promised. Maybe he hadn’t yet. I wondered if her parents were around. Surely, they won’t approve of my behaviour and I didn’t even know how to explain the whole situation to their understa

    Chapter 173 RICHARD'S POV By the time I made it back to the apartment, it was almost dusk. Heather’s parents had the heart to forgive her for lying to them. Despite all she did, they still loved her as their one and only daughter and were willing to take her back. After they left, my father noticed how troubled and unhappy I was, and I couldn’t help but tell him everything that happened. I needed someone to talk to. Someone who could understand and advise me. And right then, my father was the only one I could turn to. He advised me to be patient, to give B more time and not act rashly to avoid losing her completely. He also promised to go see her parents intercede on my behalf and convinced me to head back to the apartment and rest because I really needed it. As I was approaching my apartment from the elevator, I noticed the door was left ajar. I didn’t put too much thought into it because it was probably Gideon. I had seen him earlier that morning before stepping out.

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   The Truth

    Chapter 172 RICHARD’S POV I wasn’t sure where B could have gone, but the only place that came to my mind was her family house. I just hoped she hadn’t gone to any other place. It’ll be hard finding her if she did. No matter what, I had to get her back. I want her back. Not only is she the love of my life, but she’s also carrying my unborn child. She will be the mother of my children. Rushing into the room, I hurriedly pulled out the drawer of the nightstand, searching for my car keys. I couldn’t remember where last I kept it but I think it should be in the drawer because I usually left it there. Instead of finding my car keys, I found something else. My brows drew in curiously as I took out the paperwork. Going through the contents, terrible regrets assailed me as I shook my head in agony. B was pregnant. All these while, she has been carrying my child but kept it from me. All these while, I have been hurting and treating her badly not knowing my seed was growing inside her.

    CHAPTER 171 RICHARD’S POV The news of Heather’s pregnancy hit me like a shockwave. I was so shocked I struggled to accept it. How did it happen? How am I the one responsible for it? As far as I knew, Heather and I hadn’t gotten into any intimate act since she returned. There must be a mistake somewhere. B was so shattered she couldn’t even look at me. But I wished she could just listen to what I had to say before jumping to any conclusions. This was all a misunderstanding. I knew nothing about it. I know I have been cold and mean towards her lately, but that was only because of the way she’d been acting towards Heather. I believe with time she’ll stop seeing Heather as a threat and apologize for her actions. I cared for Heather and promised to be by her side to make up for all those years I failed to protect her from Ben. But that doesn’t mean I’ll go as far as sleeping with her. I made it clear to her that I loved B and only B now. What Heather and I shared was all in the

    CHAPTER 170BIANCA’S POVIt’s been almost a week now. That night I went out of the apartment, I wasn’t thinking straight. I was losing my mind. I had no one else to run to except Nina. She was the only one who could understand me right now and tell me what to do. At this point, I was considering a divorce. Divorce him and move on….He lied about loving you….He never loved you….He only agreed to this marriage because his father wanted him to… you were only a second option, a plan B.Nina advised me not to give up on him yet. She said if he truly loved me then he’ll come for me. She also said I should threaten him on leaving the apartment and if he persisted, then I’ll make him choose between me and Heather. That was a good idea. The only way I could bring an end to this once and for all. It was either her or me. And I know Richard will choose wisely because deep down, he still loved me. That bitch was only putting a blindfold over his eyes, but it’s only a matter of time before I ta

    CHAPTER 169HEATHER’S POVBy the time I was done adjusting myself, getting everything together and reaching downstairs, Richard was already seated on the sofa of the living room watching a movie.Thank goodness he hasn’t brought the drinks. I sighed in relief. That would have ruined the whole plan.While Richard and I were in my room, I heard the entrance door squeak open and slam shut. That meant the bitch has gone out. That makes everything a lot better. I hope she never comes back. I hope she gets hit by a bus or truck or falls off a cliff and her body is never found. As it stands now, that will make things a lot better now.“Hey,” I smiled at Richard as I took a seat very close beside him. “What are you watching?”He looked at me with a smile before looking back at the TV.“I just turned on the TV and found the movie interesting,” he said. He grabbed the remote and pressed the information button to check the title and description. “It says ‘The Idea of You.’”“Ok,” I beamed a smi

I will feel a lot better, and be the happiest woman on the planet when he throws his garbage wife away from this penthouse apartment and our lives forever.“I’m sorry Hay,” he apologized, his voice very gentle and soothing to my hearing. “Please forgive B. She doesn’t know what she’s doing.”“She knows what she’s doing!” I blurted out, sobbing heavily. “She hates me and is out to destroy me. She's dangerous and the earlier you realize that, the better and safer it is for us. Who knows what she might do next and accuse me of?.... perhaps she could stab herself next and say that I did it. Maybe she could come back with bruises and cuts and broken bones and accuse me of hiring hitmen that did it to her…and you might just have to believe her…”I broke down in another outburst of tears, burying my face in my hands. I could tell Richard was extremely worried and cared for me a lot because he

    CHAPTER 167 BIANCA’S POV “Great,” I muttered sarcastically. Ben’s arrest was supposed to be good news. Perhaps the best news ever. He had hurt me and wanted to do very bad things to me, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right. If possible I needed to find a way to question him about Heather. I needed him to tell me everything he knew about her. If they planned her rape story together to deceive Richard. But how do I do that? The last thing I want is to meet up with him after what he did to me. And if Richard found out I met with his greatest enemy, he’d be mad at me and think I was somehow involved with him. Little did he know that bitch sitting close to him was his greatest enemy. “I’m glad he’s finally getting what he deserved,” Richard said, still sounding overjoyed. “Can you imagine he asked to see me?...” But then he stopped halfway, realizing the look on my face. “What happened to your face?” He peered closer, his eyes squinting and b

    CHAPTER 165BIANCA’S POVAfter I threw up earlier today, I started feeling strange. I felt unusually tired and drained both physically, mentally and emotionally. I couldn’t shake off the feeling that I could be pregnant. And the thought of that made me feel worse. I just couldn’t get pregnant now. Now wasn’t the right time at all. Heavens, please…I threw up a couple more times and the whole discomfort deteriorated. I got dressed and decided to visit a lab nearby to run some tests, keeping my fingers crossed that it had better not be what I was thinking.To my greatest shock and disappointment, it turned out to be true. The test turned out positive. I was fucking pregnant.Since I came back, I have been feeling extremely sad.
