“Jacqueline Meyer is your cousin!.” Lola half-whispered and half-yelled on seeing the woman who had just walked into the large drawing room of the Sanchez mansion. They had driven over directly to the Sanchez’s ancestral mansion to meet Ava’s cousin who also happened to be on her way there. “Thought you mentioned that her name was Gold..” Lola whispered again.“Yes, she is. Gold or Jacqueline, any is fine.” Ava responded with a smile and got up from her seat to melt into Jacqueline’s waiting embrace. Lola and Maria watched the two women from aside with both surprise and fascination in their eyes. Lola wasn’t the type to fan up to celebrities or designers in this case as she had no much interest in the fashion industry, but she could recall coming across one of Jacqueline Meyer’s wedding designs in a bridal magazine some years back and it had left a deep impression on her mind. The woman was ridiculously talented.She observed Jacqueline’s one-colored theme outfit from a distance a
“Hello Aria. How’ve you been?.”~“I’m good.” Lola heaved a sigh of relief on hearing Aria’s reply. “Good.” She said.The line went silent once more, no one hung up, no one spoke, and each of the women waited to hear what the other would say next.“Why are you calling?.” Aria finally asked, breaking the silence.Lola sighed once more and her hold on the phone tightened as she stared out of her bedroom’s window. Aria might have revealed her identity to the media and confessed that she had feelings for her, but no matter what it was that had happened between them, she could not help but still feel a sense of attachment to the only woman who had stood by her and grown up with her since they were only six years old. They were both girls who had paved their way through life together and that at least, had to mean something. “I’m officially getting married this weekend, Aria… To Noah.” Lola started.“Oh… congrats, then..” Aria replied with an indifferent tone.“I know a lot has happened be
“Do you mind telling me where exactly we are going to Xena? We have a party to attend in exactly three hours..”“Ssshh.” Xena hushed as the chauffeur came around and opened the car’s door to let them out of the vehicle. “You are ruining the fun, miss bride-to-be.” She joked.Lola stepped out after Xena and looked around the familiar place. They were at the same mall they had come to purchase Noah’s birthday gifts some months back. Why were they here again? “Come on, let's go,” Xena said and hooked her left arm with Lola’s right one and led her directly into the mall. The two women passed by many stores including the one they had been to the last time they came with Aria, but Lola did not bother asking any more questions this time, since Xena appeared to know exactly where they were headed.Their destination turned out to be a lingerie store at the far end of the hallway and the store’s manager who seemed to know Xena well enough ushered them in with a smile on her face.“It's so good
Breaking News!Good morning Rosewoods. We’ve just received the most shocking of notices from an anonymous source. The city’s most eligible and most sought-after bachelor would be getting married in less than a few hours. And yes, you guessed right. The dashing CEO of Infinity Companies, the fastest rising conglomerate in RoseWoods and beyond, Noah Sanchez. Well, we don't know who this lucky bride might be but one thing is for sure, we would be getting all the scoop before the end of the day.To all the beautiful ladies of Rosewoods, it's time to take your eyes off the prize for the incoming Mr. or Mrs. Sanchez. And hey, do I hear the wedding bells ring already?~“Thought we all agreed to keep this ceremony as private as possible? Just how did this manage to get out?.” Richard said in a rush as he scrolled through the pages of his phone. Notifications kept popping up and they all had the same topic, Noah’s surprise wedding.“And at the right time too,” Andy added with a frown on his
(Song Recommendation: Bruno Mars~ Marry You.)Noah tried to stay still as he stood waiting, but even he was as anxious as ever to see his bride. His polished shoes shifted impatiently on the carpet and he rubbed his palms together from time to time to keep the nervousness at bay.The bridal procession song started and everyone turned to look back at once in anticipation. The wedding location was The Penthouse, which was the largest, grandest hotel in Rosewoods and it belonged solely to the Kings family or more specifically, to Richard Kings. The main wedding venue was out in the open air in a large area that had a beautiful lakefront view. The photography team worked relentlessly to capture the beautiful moments from start to finish and the single media house which had been granted an exclusive contract to cover the event began to click away on their cameras. The bride finally showed up and amidst the gasps in the area which was filled up with only their guests, Noah felt his heart
Tyler’s gaze darkened as he watched Xena avoid making eye contact with him once again. He had tried to start a conversation with her multiple times today but she had been acting strange. If he didn’t know better, he might have thought that she was shy, but that was ridiculous. He knew Xena Sanchez from when she had styled pigtails for preschool. Xena was anything but shy.“Boss.” A bodyguard called out, just as he watched Xena walk away and meet up with a group of her friends at the far end of the hall.“What is it?.” He asked and forced his eyes to look away from Xena and face the man who was standing in front of him.“She left the hotel grounds after congratulating the bride.” The bodyguard informed. He was one of the men assigned by Tyler to keep an eye on Aria.Tyler’s eyes narrowed for a second but he nodded with slight satisfaction. He had no idea why the girl had truly come but he was glad to have her gone without having to do much. At least, Aria knew better than to cause troub
Lola heard the front door open. She hurriedly grabbed a small bag from one of the suitcases and rushed into the closest bathroom. Noah was back. She laid a hand over her troubled belly and swept her other free hand right through her lush red hair in deep frustration. The ache was painfully familiar. How could her period choose to start on such a day and time? What was worse was the fact that she had been foolish enough to not check it out on her calendar in advance. The resort they were visiting was on a low-lying coral island in the Atlantic Ocean. It had a tropical escape along Crystal Bay, a long stretch of sugar-white shoreline that’s regularly named to be among one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. For their honeymoon, Noah had booked the most outstanding suite. A penthouse, with detailed furnishings. It had three bathrooms, a powder room, a foyer, a living area, a dining area, a television room, a kitchen, and an expansive exterior terrace. Yet, she had ruined her weddin
Rose Woods City, New York.One might have expected that the gossip surrounding the sudden marriage of the city’s most eligible bachelor and their famous dance muse would have died down after a while, but this was not the case. After the news of the young Sanchez couple’s marriage had been made public, the netizens who found it had to believe that the two people had such a relationship started to dig and pull out hints that might help them understand how the relationship between the two had come about. Many gossip columns and TV shows also used this medium to promote their businesses. Luckily, for Lola, they found no way to trace back the success of her dance career to Noah and therefore disbanded the rumors that she might have succeeded because of her secret relationship with the business god.Random photographs of the two taken together in public places in the past months started to surface miraculously and the media houses and netizens eventually concluded that the woman in the rece
Grandfather Sanchez let out a hearty laughter as he watched the good old Boyd’s family mansion come into view. It was just yesterday when his granddaughter-in-law had put to bed and the joy that came with carrying his great-grandchild in his arms escorted him on this short trip.He had not only gained a great-grandchild but also his father’s prized possession would be returned to him very soon. His prized golf club.The security guards at the mansion’s gate saluted him as the car was allowed to cruise up to the entrance of the mansion where a beautiful old lady waited.“Good day, Old Master Sanchez.” Samantha, Old Boyd’s wife greeted politely.“Samantha.” The old man acknowledged with a slight frown on his face. “Where is your husband?.” He asked with a raised eyebrow.Samantha let out an awkwardly tight smile as she spoke out. “I apologize, Old Boyd is unable to receive any visitor at the moment as he is currently indisposed. But I assure you, I am an excellent host.”“Would you like
It was late into the night when Noah’s eyes gradually opened.His eyelids continued to flutter until they finally adjusted to the lighting in the room. When he tried to turn on his side, his back hurt, and his entire body felt numb so he lay there for a while, unmoving.~Her bed was warm and Lola felt more comfortable as she snuggled against her huge pillow. She remained there until she heard her phone vibrate and her tired eyes reluctantly opened up.“Ah..h!.” Lola jumped off the bed with a scream as she realized that the pillow she had been hugging was a real person. Who would dare?...Noah, who had been pushed off to the edge of the bed groaned at the slight pain her roughness had brought to his still-recovering body.Now widely awake, Lola was in for a double shock as she stared at the person in hospital clothes who she had pushed away. “Noah!!!.” Lola screamed with joy and a rush of excitement overtook her as she jumped back on the bed to return to her husband’s embrace, comple
SEVEN WEEKS LATER,Lola clutched the test results in her hands tightly as she rushed into the hospital’s restroom. Finally, alone, she let the hot tears that she had been holding back stream down freely on her face. She was pregnant, and yet there was no way to tell him that he was going to be a father. Her phone started to ring in her purse and Lola inhaled sharply to clear her voice before she picked up the call. It was Maria. “Mom.” She managed to say in a clear voice. “Honey, you should come home today. Let me take care of you while you get some rest...”“I will be fine, Mom. Trust me. You know I’m a lot stronger than you think.” Lola said, even though her supposed strength was a lie, she refused to be swayed from her responsibility. “Besides I have to be there for when...” she insisted. Maria let out a long sigh at the other end of the line, her daughter was stubborn as always and she wondered who it was that the girl had taken after. Richard.“If you say so.” Maria finally sa
“Step away from her this moment, Nathaniel!.”Andy ordered as he stared at his wife who looked too shaken to utter a word. He could understand what she was going through, after all, he had been present all along to know just how much Nathanial had affected her in the past.“Stay out of this, Father!.” Ash snapped as he ran his hand through his hair frustratedly. “I am not your father, neither is she your mother. We are not related to you in any way whatsoever. Come to your senses, young man!.” Andy clarified angrily.Ash let out a bitter laugh and he withdrew his hands from Ava’s to stand up to his feet. “In the end, it's those two you want right?.” He questioned, referring to Noah and Xena.Their present denial of him was a huge blow to Ash’s ego. He had been prepared to do anything for them. He had been ready to get rid of the children who had replaced him in their life, he had been ready to kill Noah and Xena Sanchez to have his parents back. He had done a lot of bad deeds to come
Infinity Apartments,The Penthouse.“Boss!.” John bowed as he reached Noah amidst the anxious gazes of Grandfather Sanchez, Lola, and Mr. Henry. The men had indeed discovered something, but it would be safer if only Noah learned of it so he leaned in to whisper to Noah, but he was stopped by Noah who shook his head and ordered. “Speak up!.”John glanced in Lola’s direction with a slight hesitation in his gaze. “Boss, I don't think..”An icy glare from Noah shut him up.“Whatever it is, we need to hear it boy!.” Grandfather Sanchez added and Lola and Mr.Henry nodded in agreement. The old man did not like the way the bodyguard was cautious of Lola’s presence either. She was one of them now and the Sanchez family’s women would not be thought of as weaklings! It was a family matter and they all had to think of a solution, together. John swallowed and decided to speak up regardless of how sensitive the matter might be to the young miss.He looked at Noah directly and reported. “The men m
“They’ve been gone for over six hours. The flight takes three. So how is it possible that they are not yet there?.”An eerie silence settled over the room as everyone suddenly turned serious. Even Lola, who had just walked out of the bedroom after hearing the old man’s voice in the living area was forced to keep the formalities aside and listen in on the conversation, quietly.“I had called the resort before all else sir, they are indeed yet to arrive.” Mr. Henry explained. He had only noticed that something was off when the guards that had been arranged to convey the elder Sanchez couple from the airport to the resort where they were to stay had called to inform him that thetwo people they were expecting, were nowhere to be seen. The bodyguards had been waiting at the airport for a long time before they finally reached out.Mr. Henry was also the one to confirm the booking of their stay instead of Grandfather Sanchez, so it had also been easy for him to get the information that he ne
“Lola…” Noah groaned as his wife’s soft hands tortured his member which did not hesitate to betray him by hardening excitedly in the welcome softness of her warm hands. He had not expected that she would touch it…again.“It’s so big,” Lola mumbled and adjusted her hands gently around his throbbing rod which suddenly jerked again in her hands. Even in the dimly lighted room, it was easy to see the veins around his thick manhood, and its cap which glistened with pre-cum only fascinated Lola the more as she rubbed gently on it and went further to move her hands up and down his dick.Noah ran his tongue over his lower lip as he stared down at his little wife completely helpless. Whether drunk and drugged or sober, how is it that she did the same thing? no matter how sloppy her inexperienced hands on his shaft were, did she not know that her simple action could torture him to madness?Noah wrapped his hand around Lola’s and his lips parted slightly as he guided her at the pace that he want
The lights from down the marina’s pathway cast the most beautiful shadow on Noah’s features, making them look sharper and dangerously more charming. His deep eyes trailed appreciatively down Lola’s body and Lola blushed from his hot gaze that suddenly made her feel so self-conscious... It was almost as if the man in front of her could see the whole of her soul with the whole of his eyes. “Why are you looking at me that way?.” Lola finally asked.It was a little windy and the breeze made a lock of her hair blow toward her face. She made to put the strands back in place but Noah was one step ahead of her, as always.He tucked the red lock of hair behind Lola’s ear and let out a helpless sigh as he draped a coat that Lola did not notice he had been holding around her shoulders to prevent her from catching a cold. “It's even more gorgeous than I imagined it would be on you. But of course, your beauty surpasses it…” He responded in a serious tone and Lola could almost swear that she had
The elevator dinged and the Sanchez couple walked to the entrance of the suite where Noah opened the door with their keycard. A porter, who was helping them convey the packages they had returned with from their afternoon outing walked inside first and Lola followed after him. She suddenly stopped, surprised to see that Noah still standing outside, and even after the porter had dropped off their bags and left, he made no moves to come in after her.“Aren’t you coming in?.” she asked. Noah shook his head in the negative as he signaled for Lola to go ahead. “I had something delivered for you. It’s in the living room.”“Read the note first.” He added with a teasing smile.Lola raised her brows and let out a nervous chuckle. “Okay? That's it?.”Noah nodded. He could read from the curious look in her eyes that she wished to know more, but divulging his plans by words was not his way of doing things.~“What are you up to, Noah?.” Lola muttered as she made her way into the living room Just
