Please don't beat me at the end of the chapter. 😁

[ Nicholas ]

"Oh no, it has to start now." I groan looking out through the windows as the rainfall took more fierce shape. It's raining like cats and dogs accompanied by loud thunderstorms.

"Nick, let's stay here for tonight." I hear Rain's faint voice.

"No, Rain, I have to prepare for tomorrow's meeting and the files are in my study room." I tell her and it's true.

"The meeting can be rescheduled for tomorrow." Mom reasons.

"No chance, Mom. You know me and my working style." I roll my eyes.

"Nick, I think you should stay here for tonight. The rain doesn't seem to stop anytime soon and it's already ten." Dad says and as much as I want to run from my parents' suspicious eyes, I think he's right.

It would be a suicide trip if I even think of leaving in such weather.

"I'll ask the maids to change sheets and blankets in your room." Mom says and leaves to prepare my old room even before getting a response from me.

    [ Rain ]I don't remember when the last time I felt my heart hammering at this pace. I can't figure it out but the void is there, constantly sinking my heart in it's depth as I stare at Nicholas laying on the hospital bed. His face turned pale and lips blue yet he manages to look handsome as ever.My heart squeezes seeing him in such condition and partially I blame my parents for it and mostly his parents.The conversation I had with his father keeps playing in my mind on repeated mode. The whole reason behind our last minute marriage was planned out.The letter, Roselie running away and my parents to beg me and I agreeing on marrying Nicholas. It was all pre-planned by Nathan Blackwood. If he really wanted me as his son's wife then why all such lies and drama? He could had arranged it between us."Ma'am, please take some rest. You haven't blink your eyes since the last night. I'd inform you if Mr. Black wakes up in your absence." The soft voice of the nurse who is assigned to monitor

    [ Nicholas ]I tried to open my eyes but as soon as I half open them, I squeezed them shut as the bright light hit my sensitive pupils. A throbbing headache and stiff body muscles were killing me."Ahh.."I groaned as I tried to move my hands."Nick, Oh My God! You're awake." I hear Nicole's voice which makes me open my eyes after a lot of efforts.I spot Nicole, my parents and my friends circled around my bed with worried expressions."Relax guys, I am not dead." I rolled my eyes. They are treating me like I've gone through a brain surgery."Nick, my baby. How are you feeling now?" Mom caresses my head as her eyes give up. Her red eyes are clearly evident that she has cried a lot."Like a complete shit." I answer honestly and avoid my best to ignore my father's presence behind her. She smiles faintly and kisses my forehead.He is worried sick for me but he's the one to be blamed for everything that happens last night or with my life."You scared us, Nick." Mason hits my shoulder."Eas

    [ Rain ]I give up on my hope to see my husband as Nicole strictly ordered the guards to not let me go inside. I feel completely helpless. His parents consoled me before leaving. They also feel ashamed of their deeds. They should be but why am I being punished? Does he really think that I am also involved in this sham?I have no right on my own husband.Am I really married?All these thoughts created a mess inside my head. I can't see my future in the mist of deception and uncertainties."Rain."Xavier's soft voice snaps me out of my trance. I spring up from the chair and rush to him and Mason who just walked out of Nick's ward."How is he?" I ask him the same question I asked his parents.Instead of answering my question, Xavier pulls me into a hug and rested his chin on the top of my head."He is fine, probably gets discharged by tomorrow." He tells me. Nothing new."I mean how is he dealing with the-"I pause not having the courage to remember the bitter truth of our marriage."He

    [ Rain ]"Nicholas."I can only whisper his name as my emotions become a whirlwind. I see his handsome face getting blurry as my eyes welcome fresh set of tears."Rain."My name comes out his mouth like the music from the bard of heaven. It pulled every single string in my heart and reached my soul.I feel his thumbs wiping my tears and I let myself lean into his touch. For several moments, none of us say a word and only feel other other through the medium of silence."How are you feeling?" I decide to break the silence by asking about his health.He retreats his hand from my cheek. I feel sudden coldness overtaking the warmth his touch provided."I want to get out of here. This hospital smell, it's more sickening." He says with a disgusted look on his face.A smile stretches on my lips,"I can hardly smell anything here, Mr. Blackwood. So, stop making excuses. You have to stay here until the doctors give you permission to go back home." I say."I am just sick not wounded and I can als

    [ Nicholas ]I feel guilty after Rain left. I can't erase the image of teary face. I hurt her for sure but she has to understand from where I am coming. It's not easy for me to trust people now, at least the closest one around me.She has feelings for me and it's not unknown to me but what I feel for her is beyond the vocal description. It's more than mere infatuation, perhaps the first stage of falling in love but again the bitter truth eclipses the feelings. Our marriage has been a play directed by my parents, including hers.How can I decipher my love for Roselie after knowing that she was mostly innocent in this charade. In fact, a victim just like Rain and I.The creaking of the door brings my thoughts to an abrupt halt. I raised my head to look at the intruder and a smile automatically appears on my lips as I see my only source of happiness rushing towards me."Uncle Nick." Breece climbs up on my bed and throws her tiny arms around my neck. I wrap my hands around her small fram

    You're right, Colly B ;)[ Rain ]The moment I step down from the cab and look ahead of me at a residential building in the most expensive area of the city, I begin to doubt my decision of even coming here. I would be caught by anyone and next day, my image might be tarnished in the tabloids and all over the media."Ma'am, I'd advise you to call your friend before going inside as this area is strictly prohibited for who haven't their identity and relation to the residents verified first." The cab driver says.I crane my neck to look at him with gratitude, he hasn't left even if I paid his fare."In case you want to go somewhere else." He says as if he reads my mind."Thanks." I nod at him in gratitude and with a deep sigh, I dial Xavier's number as I stand outside the entrance gate of the building.He picks up in a few rings."Hey, Rain." His deep voice comes from the other end."Hi, Xav." I answer him in a low voice while playing with my rings, how am I supposed to tell him that I'm

    [ Nicholas ]Mason drives me back to my home and I have this sinking feeling that something isn't right but I can't point why. A very excited Breece is jumping on the backseat of the car to meet her Cinderella.On the other hand, I'm dreading to face her after the incident at the hospital."Come on, Nick. Rain isn't one of those clingy wives who'd be waiting for you at the doorstep with a broom in her hand to beat your ass up. I bet she'll forgive you if you talk to her nicely and explain her your state of mind and why you snapped at her." Mason says. He isn't one of those friends who talks of serious subjects. In fact, he can never be serious for more than five minutes."My sister's effect is quite visible on you, bro. You're talking like a grown up man now." I smirk at him who has a slight blush on his cheeks."Agreed. She doesn't like me behaving like a clown all the time." He air quotes the word clown."She's my sister." I state proudly and again the same uneasiness settles in my

    [ Rain ]I don't realise when the time flies. Xavier gave me a good company throughout the day. We talk, watched movies and play chess. I show him more of my photos I took from my phone and also discuss my plans with him.The clock finally stuck seven in the evening. I glance at the sky through the curtains. The dawn has fallen, slowly transforming into a beautiful shade of grayish black color."I should be leaving now." I say to Xavier who just enters in the living room with two mugs of tea.His smile drops which has been constantly plastered on his face since I came here. Nevertheless, he doesn't say a word and handed one of the mugs to me."Thanks." I sip the content and I should say he makes the best tea I ever had."You want to go to Nick's house. Sorry, I mean your house?" He asks me to know whether I'd be living with Nicholas or find a new place for myself."I will be heading to his house. Initially I thought to stay with Candace but then I thought for how long I would run fro

    Five Years Later...I woke up by the wet kisses in the valley of my breasts and a hand slowly massaging my already sore pussy. I arched my back as pleasure rippled through my cells."Umm...Nick please." I moan my husband's name and the lips which are slopping on my belly travel upwards to claim my lips while he comes between my legs, his hardness poking on my inner which which is enough to send me to the edges all over again."Good morning, love." He whispers in a deep husky voice, his morning is handsome and sexy inviting me to claim him as mine."Good morning, husband. You didn't had enough last night?" I caress his cheeks."I can never have enough with you, Rain, you know this." He smiles and kisses my palms while positioning himself on my entrance."It's too late and Nolan might be up. He will throw tantrums if we don't go to him." I remind him about our one year old son, our lifeline, the fruit of our love."Well, he's my son and he knows that Daddy needs to be pampered first by M

    [ Rain ]Nicholas's fuming face reflected what he witnessed and his sister's face has a horror expression. My own heart leaps in fear as well as uncertainty.I just hope he didn't listen to our conversation. I do not want him to get hurt by his closest bond, his sister whom he practically worships.He takes predatory steps towards us, his eyes glaring at his sister who looks everywhere except at her brother. She was caught red handed and there's no way to escape unless she gives him a good excuse."Why did you slap her?" He asks her in a very calm tone but both I and she can sense the raging anger behind the calmness."She was misbehaving with me, Nick. I swear, I did nothing. She brought up Michael and mine past. What could I do? She scratched my old wounds." She starts crying but the tears are fake.My heart sinks. He will definitely believe her over me so I stay silent preparing to hear from him but what he says next, stuns me."Stop pretending, Nicole because we both know that he

    [ Rain ]The conversation I had with Maa keeps replaying in my mind. She and Dad knows everything since the start but kept Nicholas in dark for his own safety."Rain, you're scaring me now, please tell me what happened there? Did someone say mean things to you?" Nick's worried voice reaches in my ear and I feel his hand squeezing mine.I tilt my head in his direction and meet his concerned eyes."We can talk once we reach home?" I point at the driver and his bodyguard because right now, I can't trust anyone except myself and him."Sure." He nods his head but his expressions still shows puzzlement.The rest of the drive went in silence. I desperately want to reach home and tell him everything but it's not easy. He trusts his sister more than his parents. Our relationship has always been hanging on a loose cord and if I tell him what I learnt from Micheal and his parents, it may backfire on me and probably put the last nail on the coffin of our marriage.But I can't let Nicole play with

    [ Nicholas ]I knock on my Dad's study door nervously and wait for him to open. I don't know how am I going to face him after what happened between us and how harsh I was with him. I practically cut him off from me and now I begin to regret it.He is my father and he has given me the best life. He was an ideal figure for me when I needed an inspiration. He never really forced me for anything except to continue the family legacy, our business."Come in." Comes his deep voice from the other side. He sounds depressed. I just hope it's only work.I slowly open the door and slip inside. I spot my father sitting behind his large oak desk reading a classic novel by Hardy and opera playing on the gramophone.Shit! He is tensed about something because he reads his favorite author and listen opera whenever something bothers him. He's too engrossed in his reading that he doesn't sense my presence."Dad..." His pupils dilate and he shot up his eyes to look at me. He looked shocked to find me in

    [ Rain ]"Relax, Nick." I squeeze my husband's hand who is looking nervous as our car stops in front of his parents' house. He doesn't show it to me but I know him. If it wasn't for the emergency in the business, he wouldn't have come."I don't know what to say to him. It's been a really long time, Rain." He shares his dilemma with me which makes me smile. He's cracking up to me."He's your father, Nick who loves you very much. I am sure he'll forgive you if you apologize to him sincerely." I say.He tilts his head to glance at me,"Why should I apologize to him? I admit, I went a little aboard but he's at fault." He argues. He is still stuck there."Look, Nicholas. I know it's not easy for you to move on from the bitterness of the incident but you have to let this grudge go at some point. Life is too short to miss the love and companionship of our family and loved ones. Let's enjoy our time together because we don't know what the future holds for us.

    [ Nicholas ]I stare at the sleeping figure of Rain cooconed under the duvet which covers her perfect breasts which are rising and falling with her breath. Her face glows in the early morning rays.I broke my promise to her last night and made sweet love to her. I couldn't forget the melodies moans she let out when I devoured her beauty. She's shy and bold, a perfect combination. I admire how mature and independent she has become in our months together.My hand automatically reaches to touch her face and remove the hair strands from her face which are blocking her face's view.Her eyes flutter open feeling my touch and a smile twitches on the corner of her lips."Good morning, Mrs. Blackwood." I brush my fingers on her cheeks."Good morning, Mr. Blackwood." She wishes me in her sweet morning voice."You look more beautiful in the morning." I inch closer to her and wrap my hand around her naked waist and make circles on her smooth skin.She places her soft palms on my bare chest. It is

    [ Rain ]"Do you think, it's an enough proof to side Maa and Papa on our side because going directly to Nicholas wouldn't be a nice decision right now." I say to Roselie staring at the manila envelope in my hands."A try won't hurt either. They love you and I am sure they'll try to understand your point, besides they have to save their son's marriage rather than supporting their psycho daughter. Moreover, they owe you an apology for keeping you in the dark regarding the 'deal'." Roselie comments."Don't remind of that." I sigh."Sorry but it's true. They're nice to you but it doesn't mean their hands are clean. The least they can do for you to keep their daughter out of your personal life." She says."I will talk to them tomorrow. I am tired and I need rest from this life." I yawn and it's true. The day has been very hectic for me and I don't know what else we'd witness since Nicholas warned his house staff to tell him the name of the mole."You must seduce him so he can forget about

    [ Rain ]"Rain, I am telling you, this isn't a good idea. Let's go back. Nicholas will kill both of us if he finds out that we're here to meet his sister's ex-boyfriend." Roselie begs me as I park the car outside the garage/auto parts store in the poorer part of the city where we can be mingled in the crowd without getting caught by the hawks called paparazzi."We came here for nothing?" I roll my eyes at her,"Come on, don't be a chicken, Rose. I learnt to be a brave person from you now you are backing out.""I am not backing out but this is a dangerous bet, Rain. They're rich people who would do anything to us if it comes to hide their old skeletons in the closet." She reasons and somewhere she's right."I know but we don't have much to loose, Roselie. Let's go inside before someone catch us. You should thank me that I haven't taken one of Nick's cars which have GPS tracker installed in them. I took Elle's husband's car to cover up." I tell her."Smart move, now let's get done with t

    [ Rain ]"It's unbelievable, Roselie. No, it can't be true." I shake my head and stand up. My head started spinning with all the revelation so far."I know, I know, Rain. Initially I too believed that it was a misunderstanding until one night when I heard her conversation with her ex-boyfriend. It changed my whole narrative about her." She says which forces me to turn my face to her."Tell me the whole truth, Rose." I say firmly."First sit down. You need to calm down as it may hurt your innocent heart, Rain." She helps me to sit again."Don't worry about my heart, Rose. I have learnt from the time." I chuckle dryly."Good to know, Rain. I always wanted you to come from Dad and Rainard's shadow. Now when I look at you, I see a confident and strong woman who can decide for herself." She smiles and it looks genuine.Am I judging her so fast?"Nicole's boyfriend and Breece's father left them or I say betrayed her. I hope you know this story."I nod my head.
