"Theo" her voice cracked as she felt her nose tingle with the onslaught of conflicting emotions. When Theo saw her standing just in the threshold between the dining area and the living area, his anger, tiredness and irritation, everything evaporated. The only thing he felt at that moment is being content. As if his entire world is standing right in front of him. Her eyes looked moist, her lips were parted. Her gaze dancing over his features, as if she is thirsty for him. He also noticed that she is leaning forward a little, trying to make the pain in her stomach feel bearable. He erased the distance between them in a few long purposeful strides and hugged her tightly, making sure not to hurt her stomach. He is taking in all of her body weight to ease her pain. "Baby" he whispered while taking a deep breath filled with her unique scent which is not polluted by any deo's or perfumes. When he called her 'Baby', she blushed. There is a video which is trending on the internet, whe
"Why did Silas wanted to kill me?" Nina wondered outloud. Theo wanted to find out the same. "Nina, how was your relationship with your step brother after your father married your step mother?" he inquired. He already understood that William Davis favoured his step family over Nina. Unless and Until William thinks that Nina is useful, he wouldn't bother to notice her or remember her existence. And Barbara lived up to her title as Nina's step mother. But what is confusing Theo is the fact that Silas tried to kill her. He wanted to know what happened between them to make him hate her to this extent. Nina was quiet for a moment. She doesn't have a relationship with Silas at all. It's not that he never tried, he tried so many times to develop an inappropriate relationship with her, which she never encouraged. She tried telling that to her father, who scolded her saying that she is overthinking it and Silas is not like that. "He wanted to become more than my stepbrother. And I always
The next morning, Nina woke up in Theo's arms. His warm embrace chased away the cold around her, engulfing her in his warm cocoon. She is yet to open her eyes, but still she can tell that he is awake. He is hugging her from behind, her back to his front. One of his arms is cushioning her head, while his other hand is sitting just over her bare hip bone, making sure not to cause any discomfort to her by putting weight on her injured stomach. After his promise to own her last night, he checked the dressing of her now healing wound and insisted that she wear one of his T shirts to bed. 'It will be comfortable' he reasoned. His t shirt is loose on her frame, almost slipping past her shoulders. It reached just till her upper thighs. This is the first time she is exposing so much skin infront of him. She never wore anything like this before. Her collarbone is on display, and her legs are bare. She blushed a bright shade of red when he saw her dressed in his clothes. His eyes turne
After his call with Ryan, Theo is upset. They know Silas is behind Nina's Kidnapping, but he is unable to take any legal action against them directly. 'Well, if I cannot take any legal action, then I can still make the Davis family go bankrupt. If William Davis is ready to beg on the streets, then so be it' he decided. Nina heard the one sided conversation, but she didn't understand anything apart from the fact that someone is dead and Theo is not pleased about it. "What happened?" she asked him softly. He looked at her and stroked her cheek. "I told you that we have taken Stella in, right?" he reminded her. She nodded her head. He indeed told her that Stella already confessed about the involvement of Silas. "Yes, what happened now?" she probed. Theo is not at all pleased with what happened, but he cannot do anything about it now. "Someone killed her" he revealed. Nina was stunned to hear that. "What?" she gasped. Theo shared everything which Ryan shared with him, leavin
"Mr. Morrison, the autopsy report of Stella came out. The report shows that someone stabbed her four times repeatedly in the stomach. Stella lost her life because of excessive blood loss" Ryan shared the details of Stella's autopsy report with Theo. The Morrison heir is still trying to suppress his displeasure about this issue. "It's not it, the most confusing thing is, Stella was stabbed by a woman. And it looked similar to the way Mrs. Morrison was stabbed" Ryan shared. Until that point, they thought Stella and Silas kidnapped Nina and Stella might have stabbed her out of anger. But now Stella is dead, but she was also stabbed similar to that of Nina. "What? That means, there was a third person involved in this case, and that person is a woman?" Theo understood what Ryan meant. Ryan on the other hand was equally shocked when he realised this. "Yes, it looks like it. Silas is not alone. He has a woman helping him, or he must be helping that woman. Whatever it is, there were
"Nina, here, I bought some gifts for you" he pointed at the items he carefully selected to please her. Nina gave the said items a fleeting glance. Everything is neatly arranged on the table in front of the couch. William already opened all the boxes to be made sure that she could see the items inside the boxes and get dazzled instantly. He picked a few pieces of diamond jewellery and expensive branded leather handbags. She would have loved all of these gifts if he would have gifted them a few years ago. But now, she doesn't feel anything when she is looking at those gifts. Her heart feels empty for the man sitting in front of her. "Dad, these are not nessasary. You took your time to come and see me, it's more than enough" she spoke with a hint of smile. But what she is not verbalising is that, all she ever needed from him was his time and affection, which he never gave. William ofcourse didn't understand what she meant. He thought she is still the same Nina who used to do anything
"Dad, don't worry. I cannot look at you like this. I will try to speak with Theo today. I will try my best to change his mind" Nina promised William. When William heard this, he looked at her with hope. "Nina, if you could do this, then this would be a huge help for our family. Dad will give you whatever you want as long as you can pull this off" he promised. He wanted to please her and push her and try her best to change Theo's mind. Nina gave him a forced smile. "You know me and Theo are not in good terms with each other. I cannot promise that I will succeed. But I can promise to try my best" she spoke up, clarifying that he is still not out of hot water. William gave her a huge smile. It's not a secret that Nina is beautiful. And as a man, he knows that a woman can charm any man if she wants to. "Nina, as Theo's wife, it's your duty to please him in every way possible. Please him first, and then try to persuade him" he advised her to woo her husband in bed. This is the kind
"You don't have to worry about me, worry about yourself" she whispered and winked mischievously. "If you say so" he replied. His voice is husky with anticipation. In this one year that they have been married, never once did they touch each other intimately. They didn't even share a room. So many misunderstandings created a wall around them, making a relationship seem impossible. But now, this feels like a dream. A very beautiful and hot dream. Slowly Nina removed his tie from around his neck and tied both his arms together behind his back. The knot is loose and he can break it if he wants to. And she wants him to break, so that she can stop this. She leaned closer to him when she was tying the knot , intentionally seducing him. Never once did they lose eye contact. "Are you ready?" she whispered over his lips, just a whisper away from kissing him. "I thought you already started. Is it not started yet?" he countered with a challenging smirk. She pressed her lips to his and
