ADRIANNA

“What is going on Ethan?” I asked, confused, as Ethan had one knee on the floor while he looked at me.

He had his head down for a few seconds before he finally brought them back up.

“Adrianna,” he began.

How many times does he want to call my name? I laughed at that.

“On the night of your wedding, when I saw you at the club, there was just one thing on my mind. Who was this beautiful lady? I wanted to talk to you by all means, that i even hung up the call with my best friend that night” he said, as he began laughing.

“From the moment I saw you, I knew there was something special about you. The way you smile, the way you laugh, the way you make me feel when we’re together…it’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before”

Ethan’s eyes were locked on to mine, as I looked at him.

“At first, I tried to brush it off, to not fall for you, but as time went on, I just couldn’t go a day without thinking about you,” he said as he took my hand and gave it a gentle rub.

“I…i know that the

    ADRIANNA I cracked my eyes open, as the morning sun hit my face. I could hear the lovely birds chirping behind my window. I gave my body a light stretch and slowly sat up from my bed.I took my hand to my eye, giving it a little scratch, and trying to remember what had happened the night before.My lips slowly curled up in a smile, as the image of last night slowly came back.The kiss!“Uhhh!!!” I screamed, covering my face with both hands as a deep blush spread across my cheeks.“What’s all this Adrianna?” I asked myself.“You are not supposed to be feeling this way” i added as I spun around my bed.“I can't, I can't,” I said with a smile.“I need to stop thinking about the kiss, it was just a kiss” i said as my fingers trailed my lips.“But his soft plump lips!” I said in conflict, as the image of his lips on mine came flooding right back.“Nope, not going to think about it anymore!” I said, shaking my head, as I stood up from the bed.“I need to go take a shower, I stink!” I said

    ADRIANNA “What are all these?” I asked Ethan, as he brought out shopping bags of different sizes.There had to be close to 20 bags, if i wasn’t mistaken.“Hm. You can check it out” he said as he pointed to the bags.I took one of the bags and opened it up, and in it contained two pairs of pants. I looked up at Ethan, confused.“Pants?” I asked.“Yes,” he replied with a smile.“I got lots of them,” he added.I stood there confused.“But why?” I asked, my face laced with confusion.“Well, now you have lots of pants to wear,” he said as he moved closer to me, giving me a hug.I let the shopping bag fall from my hand as I reciprocated the soft and gentle hug.“And I made sure that they would not be tight for you” he said as he released me from the hug.“Well some might be big though” he added and we both laughed.I looked up at him, my eyes holding excitement. No one had ever done this for me before. No one had ever gone out of their way for me.“Thank you” I said, as I tried to blink ba

    ADRIANNATHREE DAYS LATER“Yes Ethan, i would finish packing up everything in like two days” i said as i dropped a box down.“Okay bye” I said as I ended the call.I looked around, and my whole place was a mess. I was currently packing all the things I would need when I started living with him, and oh they were a lot.Clothes, shoes, basically everything.I took the box I dropped up, and walked over to where the other ones were and dropped it beside them. I took out my phone from my pocket to check the time.“Oh shit! I need to start preparing” i said as I walked over to my bed and dropped the phone.I needed to go see Raymond to collect the divorce papers from him. I really hoped he had signed it, because I wanted nothing more to do with him. The memories of that night still haunt me like it was just yesterday. How could he do this to me? After everything? I shook my head, trying to get it out of my head. I didn’t want to think about it anymore, because anytime I did, it always hurt

    ADRIANNA “W…what are you talking about?” I managed to say, after standing still for a few seconds. I tried to pull my hand from his grasp, but he was just too strong.“Whose is this?” He asked, as he pointed to the ring on my finger.“Let me go Raymond!” I said as I desperately tried to remove my hand from his.“It is none of your business,” I said.“What do you mean none of my business?” Raymond growled, as he looked at me, his eyes holding anger.It really wasn’t his business, so why all this?“Please let me go Raymond, you are hurting me” I said, as I tried to blink back the tears that threatened to flow down my eyes.“What is going on?” I heard Jasmine ask, and immediately, I felt Raymond release me from his grip. It was as if he had previously forgotten that Jasmine was with us, and when he realized he quickly let go.I brought my hand closer to my chest, and started rubbing it gently to soothe the pain.“I…it’s nothing Jasmine” Raymond told her, as he gave a smile.“What do you

    ADRIANNA I woke up the next day, a little tired, but still had the strength to do something. I had to go to work today, since I missed yesterday. I stood up from my bed, my eyes closed and still wanting to sleep more. I searched the bed for my phone, and when I found it, I opened it to find a message from Ethan. He had replied to the message I sent yesterday.“I would just reply to him later” I thought as I started walking towards the bathroom.I took off my clothes as usual, and walked into the bathroom to have my bath. I came out when i was done, and dried my wet body with my towel.I wasn’t really in the mood for something fancy, and out there, so I just opted for something comfortable. A long beautiful gown.I quickly dressed up, and did a light make up on my face. I picked up my purse, and walked out of my door, locking it behind me. I stopped a taxi and hopped in, giving him the address to where I was to go. I immediately brought out my phone, and replied to Ethan’s message.Hi

    ADRIANNA “Adrianna!” He called my name, as he slightly waved at me with a smile. With shaky legs, and sweaty palms, I walked over to him, and leaned forward a little.“What the h*ll are you doing here Raymond?” I asked, as my face formed a frown.“Sit down, I came to see you,” he said, as he signaled for me to have a seat.I shook my head immediately to signal a no. “Why are you here?” I asked, as I straightened my back, and crossed both hands to my chest.“I missed you Adrianna, i desperately wanted to see you” he replied, with a smile on his face, which only disgusted me.“How did you even know where I worked?” I asked, my brows raised in confusion. He leaned forward, his hand on the table, as he played with the menu card.“Well, that wasn’t hard for me. I just asked around, and I got it” he said, with a shrug.“What do you want from me Raymond, we have nothing to do with each other anymore, i have given you the divorce papers to sign, i want nothing to do with you anymore” i said.

    ADRIANNA Raymond stood in front of me, with a shocked expression on his face. He looked like he had heard the most shocking news ever, and it had left him so shocked that he couldn’t move.“Ethan?” He asked, after a few seconds, regaining his composure.I moved back in fear, scared of what he might try to do again, like grab my hand all over again.“Please just let me be Raymond” I said, as I tried to blink back the fresh tears that threatened to fall.“My brother?” He asked, as he pointed to himself, with a shocked expression.“You were cheating on me with my brother?” He asked.My eyes widened in shock, at what he said immediately. I instantly shook my head. “No, no, no, what do you mean?” I asked, as I stood in front of him with a shocked expression.“I never cheated on you! Never!” I screamed at him.“You never cheated on me huh?” Raymond said, his voice laced with confusion.“But you have his child growing in your belly? How the h*ll is that possible?” he asked, as he started to

    ADRIANNAI smiled, as I saw the familiar car park downstairs, as I came out of my apartment building. Darka was finally here. I walked over to the car, and greeted him after he opened the car door for me. I hopped in, then watched him shut the door, and walk over to the driver’s seat.“Good day ma’am” he said, as he started the engine. I gave him a smile, in response to his greeting. The ride started shortly after, and we were on our way to Ethan’s company.We arrived in a short while, and I came down from the car immediately after it stopped. I waved goodbye to Darka, as I watched him drive away.I took a deep breath, as I began to walk towards the company entrance. I walked in, and towards the reception, to meet a beautiful lady which I guess was the receptionist.“Hello ma’am” she said, with a wide smile on her face. “Hello” I replied back with a smile.“Are you Mrs. Greene?” She asked, and my cheeks instantly became very hot.Mrs.?? That was too soon!“Y…yes” I replied almost im

    ADRIANNAA ring woke the tired me. I frowned. I didn’t like being disturbed while I was sleeping. My eyes were still closed, too tired to open them. I stretched my hands around my bed to find my phone.It had to be on the bed or something. Or maybe on the nightstand?I groaned. I slowly sat up, with a grumpy face. I stretched my hand towards the nightstand, my eyes still closed, and then I felt something. I knew it was my phone so I brought it close to me.I didn’t even bother checking the caller id as I was still very sleepy, so I picked up the call and took it close to my ear.“Hello?” I said with a huge hint of dissatisfaction, to let the person on the other phone know that I didn't appreciate them disturbing my sleep.The other side was silent for a while before they spoke. “Adrianna?” The person said, and my eyes immediately snapped open.I knew that voice. I instantly took the phone away from my ear, checking the caller id. My eyes darkened.Jasmine? What was she calling me for?

    ADRIANNA My eyes fluttered shut as Ethan’s lips met mine. I swear I felt butterflies in my belly at that instant. It was breathtaking. Both of our tongues fought for dominance but I eventually submitted and gave in.He sucked on my lips and I moaned. It felt so good. His lips tasted sweet like strawberries, and his scent, oh my gosh.He smelt like citrus. He smelled wonderful, and I could feel my mind spiraling out of control. Ethan kissed me so passionately that my legs instantly became weak, and I felt like a puddle. I could stand straight anymore. If not for his hands on my waist, I was sure I would have fallen flat to the ground right now.After a few seconds, Ethan broke the kiss, our body very close to each other and panting heavily. We were both out of breath, our chest rising up and going down.It was a lot. “I_i_i” I tried to speak but was totally out of breath.Ethan moved his hand to my face, and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Breathtaking Adrianna” he said, his

    ETHAN“Oh my gosh! Ethan this is so cool” i watched Adrianna splash the water with her feet. Her golden features shine bright like the sun or even better.She looked so beautiful, with her hair falling in front of her face as she jumped around the ocean, excitement evident in her face and body movements. Never had I been with a woman as beautiful as her.She was breathtaking, and could pass as an angel.I was so happy and satisfied that I had brought her here. “Come on!” She waved at me to come over. I walked closer to her admiring the beauty that was my wife.I couldn’t wait to actually get married to her. I wanted her to be mine. All mine. I wanted her to walk around high and mighty while the was called the name Mrs. GreeneI wanted to be around her every single hour, minute, second. I wanted her to be all up in my skin.I wanted to give her my attention twenty four hours, seven days a week.And most of all I wanted her to call me her husband. The thought of it excited me. To wake

    ADRIANNA About twenty minutes passed. Ethan and i were all chatty and laughing, then the waiter walked in with a platter. Two other waiters followed behind him. He dropped the platter on the table, and the others followed to do the same, arranging them in order.I marveled at the dish before me. My eyes and mouth watered. It was then that i actually knew i was hungry, as i heard my stomach growl.“This looks delicious” i looked up at Ethan with eyes that spelled hunger.Ethan chuckled. “I’m glad” he nodded to the waiters and they bowed and turned around to leave.“Will it taste as delicious as it looks” i said to myself as the aroma of the delicacy in front of me traveled straight to my nose. I looked up at Ethan to catch him staring at me. My cheeks instantly became hot.“Wh_why are you staring?” I asked, blushing as I looked back down.“Hm, let’s just say I love to stare at my wife’s beautiful face,” he said, and I looked up to find him smirking.“Let’s eat” he added and right aft

  • Betrayed by my ex, Loved by his brother    76: DOLCE ITALIA

    ADRIANNA Ethan held my hand as we walked out of the building. Eyes were on us, but I couldn’t care one bit as all I cared about was his soft but firm hands that held me so tightly, like he never wanted to let me go.We walked to the parking lot, and Ethan brought out a key from his pocket, which I figured was a car key. He held it towards a car, and it made a beeping sound. Ethan walked me to the passenger’s door, and opened it for me, watching me as I entered before closing the door. He turned around and walked to the other side. He entered, and I muttered a thank you.“You’re welcome” he smiled and started the engine. He drove out of the parking lot, and we were on our way to whatever Ethan had in store for me. *****A large building came into view. It was painted in a cream color. A gigantic signboard was hung at the top of the building. It read ‘Dolce Italia’. I stared at it for a while, trying to figure out what it meant. The word Italia sounded like Italy, but I couldn’t fi

    ADRIANNA I walked out of Mr. Collins office, slamming the door behind me. I let out a deep breath.“Glad that’s settled” I muttered, and sighed in relief. I began to walk towards the exit of the building, while also bringing out my phone to give Raymond a call.“Hello?” I said, placing the phone to my ear.A voice from the other side replied. “Adrianna” he called, yawning.I guess he was still sleeping. I scoffed, what a fool.“Raymond,” I began.“I have submitted the papers to my lawyer, and we have been instructed to meet in court in four days”I didn’t wait to hear his reply before ending the call. I didn’t want to ruin my mood, I had a date to go to.My lips slowly curled up in a smile at that instant. I was going on a date with Ethan. The thought still excited me as much as it did in the morning.Remembering that Ethan had asked me to give him a call, I dialed his number and took the phone to my ear. “Mi Amor” he said, picking after the first ring. I blushed hard at what he cal

    ADRIANNA I watched him walk out of my room, closing the door behind him.“I’m going on a date!” I let out a little scream in excitement as I turned around and ran to my bed. I jumped on it, careful to not land dangerously on my belly, and screamed into the pillow.“Oh I need to wear something very nice,” I said, as I sat up.“Like a dress,” I added.I stood up from my bed, and walked towards my wardrobe, but stopped.“I need to take a shower first” i said, and with that, i took off my clothes and walked into the bathroom.Not wanting to waste a lot of time, I quickly had my bath and came out shortly after. I dried my body with a towel, applied lotion, and walked to my wardrobe.“Hmm, okay what would I want to wear?” I said, as I searched through my tons of clothes. I also had to consider the fact that I was going to see the lawyer first, before eventually meeting Ethan. So, I had to wear something that was simple, but also unique and cute to go on a date with.I brought out a gown t

    ADRIANNA THE NEXT DAYThe gentle knock on the door made my eyelids slowly flutter open.I tried to take in the background and everywhere, my eyes adjusted to the bright lights.The knock on the door came up again.“I’m coming” I muttered, as I stood up from the bed, and sat at the edge of the bed to get my balance before I moved.I yawned and stretched, before I stood up and walked towards the door. I held the doorknob, and turned the lock the other way to open it. With sleepy eyes, I slowly opened the door, and held my head out to see who was standing outside my door. My sleepy eyes immediately vanished, and were replaced with excitement, as I opened the door wider.“Ethan?” I said, as I took my hand to my eye, giving it a little scratch.“Good morning wife” he greeted me, excitement laced in his tone.“Good morning,” I replied.He walked into my room, and closed the door behind him, immediately enveloping me in a hug, his warmth soothing.He released me after a few seconds, and

    ADRIANNA “Adrianna?” I heard someone call my name.I tried to turn around to see who that was, but all I saw was darkness.Pitch black.“Hmm”“Hmm?”“Hmm” I tried to let out words, but only murmuring sounds came out.It wasn’t until I felt a little push, that my eyes slowly started to open. I blinked at the blur I saw out, and I was starting to see clearly.The corner of my eyes was locked on a figure, and when I slowly turned my head, Ethan was standing beside me, his two hands crossed to his chest.“Adrianna?” He asked, his face laced with worry.“Hmm?” I made a sound, as I tried to sit up.“Aw” I let out a painful sound, as I felt a sharp pain in my neck area.Ethan rushed to me, and held my shoulders, worry evident in his tone and face.“Are you okay?” He asked, as he gently helped me sit up.I nodded, trying to get myself.“I_i guess I slept off, I was really tired,” I said, as Ethan helped me stand up.“I ate a few minutes ago, and I was too tired to move,” I added as I pointe
