CHARLOTTE'S POV:-The sound of the door being unlocked made me open my eyes again. I sat up on the ground, and looked around. At first, I was confused because I couldn't remember anything. The door opened and Benjamin's tall figure entered the bedroom, holding a few bags in his hands. He walked into the bedroom and it was locked again, from the outside. I rolled my eyes at him. Benjamin placed the bags on the table and walked toward me. He crouched down on the ground in front of me. I was rubbing the sleep off of my eyes. "Did you fall asleep on the ground?" He asked me in his gentle tone. That very tone that used to melt my heart inside my chest.I gritted my teeth in anger as I stood up. "Like you care. You are the one who locked me up in this room." I growled at him. As I was about to walk away, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me. I gasped loudly as I thought I was about to fall on my butt. But instead, I fell on his lap. My breath hitched as I felt something hard beneath me, pokin
THIRD PERSON'S POV:-In the morning, Charlotte woke up and her heart skipped a few beats. She found her arms wrapped around the man she thought she hated the most. Her legs were tangled up with his. His arms were wrapped around her, keeping her secured on top of his chest as if he was afraid to let go of her. She pushed herself up and went to take a bath. No matter how hard she scrubbed her skin, she couldn't get rid of his scent that lingered on her body.She felt betrayed when her own heart refused to listen to her. She felt broken when her heart wanted to be with the man she was supposed to hate. She was still soaking in the warm water when Benjamin stepped into the bathroom and walked toward the shower cubicle. Charlotte's heart started drumming erratically inside her chest as Benjamin stripped the only piece of clothing he had on. His back was facing him, he couldn't see her drooling over his naked body. Benjamin suddenly turned his face and Charlotte was caught red handed. She
BENJAMIN'S POV My eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as I watched her in horror. She was lying on the ground. She looked extremely pale. Her lips were not just chapped, they were bleeding. It looked like she was not breathing at all. My heart was stuck in my throat as I fell on the ground beside her and placed my two fingers on her neck. My soul came to ease when I felt her pulse. She was weak but her pulse was very strong."Charlotte, stay with me, baby." I whispered in her ear as I scooped her in my arms and carried her bridal style. I took her straight to my car and we drove off. Joe was driving as he was that one person who could drive faster in case of emergency.She shifted on my lap and whimpered my name. As if it was the only thing on her mind. "Hey! Stay with me. Don't fall asleep." I whispered in her ear, trying to get her attention. She finally opened her eyes and looked at me. Her eyes teared up as she tried to touch my face."You are okay?" She whispered in a qu
BENJAMIN'S POV:-My eyes widened as I watched Charlotte running. She pushed me as she ran. My heart sank in the pit of my stomach at the thought of her leaving me. But soon, I frowned in confusion. Instead of running to the main door, she ran toward my bedroom. As soon as she was inside, she locked herself in. It took me a moment to finally realize what actually happened. She ran and hid just because I called our son.It didn't make any sense why she would run and hide from our son. For years, she was once raising that poor child all alone. And after some crisis, when the child actually wanted to meet his mother, she was hiding in a room like a coward. Charlie came downstairs and as he found me standing alone, his face fell. The bright smile he had on his face was long gone. I took a deep breath to calm myself down. My heart was still pounding when I saw her running. It felt like I was going to have a heart attack as I watched her making a move to get away from me."Where is mama, da
BENJAMIN'S POV:-I was staring in her eyes in disbelief. She was in tears, her hiccups were nonstop and she was breathing heavily. Charlotte had told me the whole story of that night. Whatever happened to her, was horrible. My heart shuddered as I imagined her going through that hardship all alone. She was all alone. She had no one. Her bastard brother took away everything from her. He even took away the money that didn't belong to him. Her mother had her own business. Her brother took over that business as well. He was the greediest man I had ever seen in my life. And as far as I knew, he was only bankrupting both companies. He just wanted to have everything so he could continue to gamble and he also got addicted to the drugs.I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her to my chest. My heart wanted to jump out of my rib cage, as if it could comfort her in such a way. She wrapped her arms around my torso and buried her face on my chest. “I never knew you went through all that. I can'
CHARLOTTE'S POV:-I opened my eyes and my cheeks burned at the sight. Benjamin was lying on the bed and I was on top of him. His arms were wrapped around my body, keeping me on top of his body. I felt the tingling sensation between my legs, his hand was cupping my ass. He was sleeping so soundly, it almost felt like a sin if I moved and he woke up. Licking my lips, I tried to move as slowly as possible. I suddenly gasped as he squeezed my ass and it woke him up.I gasped again as he deliberately squeezed my ass again. “Ben! Stop it!” I tried to scold him but those damn butterflies in my stomach…Benjamin let go of my ass and dragged his fingers upward. I was barely breathing at that moment. “Ben, please! Stop it.” I whispered through hoarse. He pulled his hands off of me.I sat up and was about to move off of him. But he grabbed me by my hips, stopping me on top of his abdomen. I turned my gaze toward his. He was staring at me with a smile on his face. It brought back memories from th
CHARLOTTE'S POV:-Gathering all the strength that I had in me, I walked up to him. “What are you doing here?” He asked, a stunned look on his face.“After all those promises, you had to lie to me. And you expect me to believe you. How can I believe you when you lie to me all the time, Ben? I asked you many times in three days, and you said you were fine.” I kept my voice down because we were in a hall where everyone could hear us. I didn't want to create a drama in front of everyone. Benjamin grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckle. “I didn't want you to feel pressured about the offer I made. I have forced you to do everything I wanted. This time, I wanted you to make a decision freely.” At least, he didn't lie to me again.I was standing by his bed, staring at him while a million thoughts went through my head. He suddenly offered me his hand, as if asking me to come even closer. I didn't know it at first but a smile appeared on my face as I placed my hand into his and walked toward hi
CHARLOTTE'S POV:-I pulled away from Benjamin after a while and tried to get up but as I turned, he pulled me back in his arms, caging me in his arms. Gulping hard, I felt myself melting in his arms yet again. “And where do you think you are going, Tinkerbell?” He asked me, his tone now was laced with tease and seduction that made my breath hitch.“Ben! Let go of me. We are in the hospital.” I tried to yell at him but I couldn't. Yes, we were at the hospital and he was actually holding me in his arms. But that's not why half of my voice was stuck into my throat. He had buried his face in the crock of my neck and I could feel a bulge in his pants, poking me from behind.“Let people see how much I love you. Let them see that you belong to me.” As always, his words were laced with the possession. I closed my eyes and licked my chapped lips. Memories from the past were flashing like true dreams. I didn't want them to stop. I wanted to remember all those memories that we made together.Aft
BENJAMIN Once we left Montreal, I made a mental note to finally pay a visit to her brother. It had been a while since anyone had gone to check up on him. Charlotte might not be interested in business anymore. But her mother's businesses were her birthright. And after how her brother kicked her out after we divorced, he didn't deserve anything that belonged to Charlotte.As soon as we got back, Charlotte got busy with her first case as an ADA. I had added it to my diary to visit the court on Friday. I just wanted to be there with her because she had been very nervous about the whole thing. I knew my wife was a champ and she would do great in her work.Charlie also got busy with his assignments. It was the perfect time for me to visit the bastard. I had Joe follow the bastard while I waited for him in his office. I watched him walk inside. He was half drunk, half hungover. I couldn't help but shake my head at his lazy ass. Charlotte's mother built that company from scratch, without any
CHARLOTTE Benjamin cupped the back of my head to tilt my neck. He then buried his face in my neck. When he started sucking my skin, I already knew where this was going. “Ben! Ben, wait!” I whimpered, trying to pull away from him. He looked at me, a hurt feeling crossed his eyes.“We are here for something important. Let me do that first. And what would Nana think?” I tried to knock some sense into him.“What else to think here? We are married.” He tried to argue. But I was already pulling away from him. Benjamin laid down on my bed. His hands were under his head. He had a dreamy look on his face.“Let me hear your thoughts, Benny. What's going on in your head?” I asked while rummaging through my stuff.“I am dreaming about having sex with you in this room. Making you scream my name while I hold you down and fuck you hard.” Whatever I had in my hands, fell on the ground as he spoke his dirty thoughts out loud. He started laughing as soon as he saw me in a shocked state.“You are ignom
CHARLOTTE I stepped out of the house, carrying a bunch of sauces with me. Charlie and Benjamin were done grilling the fish. Although Charlie never liked to add veggies on the side, because of Benjamin, Charlie didn't argue. “Something smells delicious.” I spoke out loud, making my way toward the table they had set for us. I didn't have to do anything at all. Boys did everything for me. When I met Benjamin's gaze, he had his mischievous glint in his eyes. He pointed his finger at me and mouthed quietly. “You!” My eyes widened as I knew what he was referring to. I didn't know how to hide my embarrassment. We all sat down on the table. Benjamin grabbed the first bite on a fork. He carefully blew on it then held it against my lips. My cheeks burned at the princess treatment. Smiling shyly, I opened my mouth and accepted the bite. My gaze went to my son who was staring at us with such admiration. I saw pride glinting on his eyes for his parents. “And that's, how my son, you take care o
CHARLOTTE Benjamin was still asleep. I couldn't tell when and how I opened my eyes. But the moment I opened my eyes again, I was awestruck by the beauty of my man. I couldn't remember when I was able to look at him for this long. I watched the darkness of the night brighten up as the sun rose up in the sky, all on his face. Then all of the sudden, he turned his face to me. My eyes widened in surprise and I held onto my breath. “Don't look at me like this. You'll fall in love with me.” My cheeks burned as I heard him. Smirking at me, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me on top of his tall figure. “How long had you been staring at me like that?” He asked, making me giggle.“Longer than you can imagine.” I replied in a low tone. Benjamin then sat up on the bed with me in his lap. “Let's shower.” Benjamin announced and before I could say anything, he was already walking into the bathroom with me in his arms.I waited for him outside the cubicle as he adjusted the water temperat
CHARLOTTE Something was not right. Ever since we had sex in the hospital room, Benjamin was suddenly quiet. He brought us out of the hospital. Joe was waiting for us outside. “You can go, Joe. I'll need to take my wife somewhere. Please, pick up Charlie from school.” Benjamin ordered Joe. Joe nodded his head then walked away. He opened the passenger side door for me. Once I settled in, Benjamin hopped into the driver's side. The car ride was awfully quiet. “Ben! Where are we going?” I asked, while playing with my fingers on my lap. I was nervous. For some reason, it felt like I had done something wrong.He might have seen it. Because the next second, his free hand was on my hand. He gently caressed the back of my hand with the pad of his thumb. When I looked up at his face, he had a gentle smile on his face.Usually, he had that smile on his face whenever he was either with me or with Charlie. It was kinda embarrassing that sometimes, it made me feel jealous. Sometimes I was jealous
CHARLOTTE It was Friday. As Benjamin wanted me, I had applied for Ada's job. I was stunned to receive the interview letter the very next day. Benjamin was the happiest and the proudest ever since I got the interview letter. As if, he won some kind of lottery. “Babe! I am not a child. I know how I am supposed to dress up for the interview. And it's not my first interview.” I tried to argue with Benjamin when he had literally placed my whole wardrobe on our bed. He was looking for the perfect dress for me to wear for my interview. I was grateful to my father in law for taking Charlie away from the house that day or my son would have definitely experienced us arguing in front of him as well. He had seen the most horrifying moments in between Benjamin and I. Especially when I was giving up on my son.After everything he had faced in his life because of our stupidity, I wanted him to live his best life. “I am just helping you to look better on your big day. What's the problem with that?”
CHARLOTTE I opened my eyes again and found myself wrapped around his body. I was practically on top of Ben's tall figure. He had one of his hands buried in my long locks, massaging my scalp ever so gently. While with the other one, he was stroking my back gently. I looked up at his face, and earned a soft peck on my forehead. “Did you sleep well, my love?” Benjamin asked in a soft voice.“Yes!” I replied, smiling widely. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my forehead again. As if he couldn't keep his hands and lips off of me. “You know, you are the most beautiful thing that ever happened to me.” Benjamin whispered in my ear. His words were laced with so much love, I could barely hold my tears at bay. I just buried my face in his chest.“Are you sore, Tinkerbell?” He whispered softly and my cheeks burned. “What else to expect. A little.” I was annoyed. He was treating me as if I was a kid. “Don't feel offended, my love. I must care for you afterwards. That's all. Do you want
CHARLOTTEThe car stopped right in front of a five star hotel. Of course, I couldn't expect any less from the man I had married. He stepped out of the car then held his hand in front of me. Smiling, I grabbed his hand and pulled me out of the car. We walked into the hotel where the manager was already waiting for Benjamin and I, to take us to our room. Once we were inside the elevator, Benjamin pushed his hand up his blazer that was covering my naked body. I was grateful that I was still wearing my underwear. Benjamin had his hand all over my ass. I had to bite my cheek to keep myself from moaning.Once we arrived at the floor, he wrapped one of his arms around my waist and pulled me out of the elevator. The staff opened the door for us. Before we got in, Benjamin took the key card from them and bid the staff goodbye.I was inside the room, exploring. “Do you like the room?” Benjamin asked me as he wrapped his arms around me from behind. “Yes! It's better than when I have imagined.”
CHARLOTTELicking my lips, I spread my legs wide for him. I closed my eyes as I didn't have the strength to look him in the eyes as he watched my body. I was completely naked in front of him, and completely vulnerable. Yet, I didn't feel like I was threatened by him in any way. After all, he was miraculously the father of my child. “Look at me, Tinkerbell. There is no need for you to feel embarrassed by me.” Benjamin whispered softly when he noticed how uncomfortable I was.I looked at him, my heart thumping loudly against my rib cage. His eyes were the darkest shade of blue when he was actually devouring me with his eyes. “Oh my God! You are the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen in my life. Tinkerbell, you are just perfect, like a goddess.” It was a compliment. It was supposed to make my heart flutter with happiness. But instead, I felt jealousy burning my heart. I grabbed his face with one of my hands and pulled it closer to mine. My eyes were blazing with jealousy, I could feel
