After an awkward conversation with Castro who I thought would make things hard. He surprised me when he played a familiar hit song and I ended up singing along. He too did the same and I was again Bewitched by his charisma. He was different despite being a great businessman man and once we reached the Ellison mansion, it was 8:15 PM "Wow...did this place always look so glorious" Castro made remarks as soon as he helped me out of his sports car and I chuckled and balanced on my feet"Yeah, it looked polished as if it was something…."I added to his comment but stopped when something hit my mind. I glanced around and felt like banging my head against the wall and beating myself to death"No no...this can't be happening," I said as I made a small run for it to the entrance of the mansion recalling the lunch thingy Monica told me Victor was having earlier"Hey wait up...don't run so much!"I heard Castro shout after me but I was already inside just as I came into view. I was greeted by a f
(Vivienne)I thought I was on cloud nine. Everything was so perfect that I knew the night wouldn't end just like that. Was I seeking for something special to happen? The hot breath tickling my flesh and me rolling my eyes as ecstasy built in my body rendering me uselessHis words, his voice was so intoxicating and fruity that I couldn't help but wrap my legs around him. I still had my clothes on only he had taken off his shirt"S...sir please stop...you are…"I said with heavy breaths stopping Victor from making a big mistake. He was so drunk that he could barely hold himself up to talk or open his eyes. He broke our pact, he wasn't loyal to our agreement because he went back to drinking alcohol. I felt like smashing his head against the wall however when I was about to sleep away from him, something else happened"What!?" a loud shocked exclaim left my open mouth when he dared to throw up on me "eww gross...how could you"I said when he threw up all over my belly and grabbed the back o
(Vivienne)I didn't even know when the water turned from ice cold to hot. I shivered as the hot water slapped my vulnerable skin-soothing me as I held onto Victor's strong arms. I was delirious as I threw my head back as Victor rained kisses all over my throat and neck. I couldn't hold back moans as they escaped, erupting as my voice started turning hoarse. He was in control, for a second I thought he was drunk but I confirmed he was sober enough to know what we were doing"Stop me now...or forever become my addiction" I heard him murmur as he gripped the back of my neck tightly. His desperate mouth found mine as he tilted my head forward. The water fell on me blurring my vision, making it impossible for me to see him but he wiped my face with his hand pushing off the water. I watched him, his lips red and part. His gaze was soft and his eyes filled with lust. I didn't know why his stare gave me chills. Like he wanted to eat me alive and I held out my gaze"As long as you know who you
Victor stopped immediately when the woman beneath him screamed out to be left alone. His eyes narrowed as he fixed his gaze on her. her eyes were shut and watering. He didn't understand a thing as he stayed there watching whatever was going on."Did something happen...who was it?" he said but ended up yelling, not sure why he felt a gush of anger rise in his chest. She flinched as her eyes flew open. He saw as she blinked a few times and more tears rained down her face such that the sight of it made him angry"Sweetie, did anyone try to hurt you!" he now agitated as he moved to her side and cradled her in his arms. She didn't say anything but buried her face in his chest and the way she gripped his shoulders scared him he didn't feel good seeing her so frightened that he tilted her head up by her chin"It's nothing...I'm sorry...I have to go" she said with small sobs and tried to get away from him. Victor was helpless as he looked at her crying and wiping her tears. She wanted to go a
(Vivienne)Even in my sleep, I could feel my body was in agony, I tried to stir or even adjust to a comfortable position. My hands moved around until I touched something hard and a heartbeat. I guessed it was a heart area."Mm" my eyes flickered open but immediately I opened my eyes I closed them shut when the bright lights blinded my eyes causing me discomfort"Turn the lights off Julia"I mumbled in my sleep and moved my legs around. Unfortunately, I stopped. I felt something hairy and hot. I rubbed my eyes and this time I took my time opening them and when I did, I felt better that I shifted my head hoping to get up however just as I was about to move my head"Ahh," a low gasp left my mouth when my eyes met with sharp brown piercing eyes staring intensely at me. For a second I thought it was a dream but that wasn't it when the man was staring at me without blinking. I looked at myself and gasped again when I found myself naked. My shoulders were exposed and I was tangled up in the p
(Vivienne)I failed to understand Victor one bit. After everything that happened between us, I didn't think he was supposed to avoid me. I was restless as I sat there digging my nails in my flesh. I found out I had this habit now because Victor made me think to the extreme. I secretly glanced at him and he was sitting there busy scrolling on his iPad that I felt like thrashing him, however, I decided to do the unthinkable. I scooped closer to him, putting away my phone and purse, and grabbed his arm. He didn't react even when I hugged him halfway. He seemed to have noticed my approach hence he shifted a little and I got access to his chest.Carefully, I rested my head on his chest and fixed my eyes on the screens. Like I thought he was going through his work. I was bored since we were in a moving car with the driver's attention focused on the road ahead. With or without the driver I decided to do something naughty"Stop" he mumbled hoarsely before I even reached his necktie. I was a
"Take me, now," I said, breaking the kiss when oxygen left my lungs. Both of us were breathing heavily as he held the sides of my face. I saw how blurry his eyes were and nearly watering and I knew he wanted me as much as I did. He rubbed his hand's thumb over my lips wiping away the moisture. I wasn't in my right sense that I hated myself for this"No... control yourself" he muttered caressing my cheeks but he was making things worse by touching me. My body was trembling from his touch. I wanted him to consume all of me. I wanted him to do as he pleased without leaving any part of me"You know I can't...please just a little, "I said and threw myself on his chest and fisted his shirt. I exhaled and inhaled trying to keep my body in control but that wasn't happening. Victor gripped my neck again and pulled me off him. He looked at me for a while and smashed his lips on mineThis time he was completely ruthless as he assaulted my mouth kissing me in a way that he hasn't before. I was ox
(Vivienne)"So... everything is fine... Ms. Payton, I don't know why you thought the baby may be harmed, "doctor Maverick said as he moved the probe over my belly. I lay there with my eyes fixed on the screen. By now I was used to the doctor. After I came to him. I changed into the loose light blue hospital gown which they made all the patients wore"Well...I just thought...I was doing something wrong" I replied hesitating a little. The problem tickled a little. The doctor just glanced at me with one eye and I knew he had more questions. I couldn't just tell him Victor and I had a wild night despite how pregnant I was. We had sex and that was something new to me. "Okay everything is fine...so should we tell the grumpy man about the gender of the child," he asked and stopped moving the probe. I looked at him for a while, I already suggested doing an ultrasound a few times now but Victor said it didn't matter. I asked him if he would like a boy or girl but he told me he didn't mind hav
(Vivienne)I sat there by the edge of the seat fiddling with my hands which felt too cold like I was sitting in a cold room. The VC was going through some files when I came in and he asked me to wait for a while. Looking at him he wasn't as scary as most students said he was. I met him countless times in these three eyes at his house when Alexis invited me and so far he was a kind man.He looked just like Alexis, especially her black hair although Alexis took her mom's blue eyes. Surprisingly she had eyes just like mine but I shook my head as I waited for him to finish upAfter some time he carefully shoved some files away and closed his laptop and took off his specs and set them aside"Welcome Miss Payton," he said, rubbing his hands together. His voice was low and calm which made me relax as I exhaled silently and nodded with a warm smile"I'm surprised about you...you are wonderful...as you know our school is nothing but the best in the region," he said as he looked at me with a bl
(Vivienne)"Ahh...now I feel worthless," Leo said with a cute pout while holding out a spoonful of ice cream. I laughed hard seeing how ridiculous he looked with such a face. For a 32 years old man. He was supposed to be better than this but the man was still the same. Playful like a child"I saw it...I mean is it real?"I asked again, I had a chance to watch one of the movie scenes he was shooting here. I didn't know the man was such a sweetie sexy seductor"It's called acting...it's fiction... whatever I do has nothing to do with my real self," he said defensively and I gave him the eye. No one would believe it when I saw how he was touching and kissing his co-star. It was so real, especially when they kissed. I felt shy watching him"I don't believe you okay...I saw and believed it"I simply said and ate my ice cream. Leo just looked at me with a blank expression. There was amusement and delight as if he was trying to understand me and I stopped not sure why his gaze made me feel unc
"But that's not what I want…""To work hard and do this yourself...but trust me...my dad is the best...he knows students like the back of his hand and I heard this time...the school will be selecting the companies we'll be going to, "she said and I was surprised. I didn't know that"Really how is that possible" weren't we supposed to choose for ourselves"I heard dad say it...that's why you need to chill I'm certain if it's dad in charge then both of us will get something good...I just hope he recommends his friend,'s company to you too"I heard Alexis loud and clear but I didn't want to get anything just because I was her friend but if her dad was in charge then I was hoping for the best"Our internship will start in a month or two...I'm so nervous okay...three years feels like forever" I said and dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes, the slightly wet grass pricking my back and exposed arms but I didn't care. I exhaled and inhaled the wonderful fresh air of wet grass and open
(Vivienne)"Why is he so difficult?"Alexis asked as we rushed for classes. We were so late and Mr. Whitlock was a ridiculous professor. He didn't tolerate late coming and of course, he gave difficult exams...forget tests and assignments which were like he didn't have a heart"It's cool he's just preparing us for our future," I said, fixing my hair. I was a total mess. I was only wearing blue skinny jeans with a blue tank top and some sneakers. My hair looked like a bird's nest because I didn't blow dry it but just washed it and applied conditioner to soften it"Come on, let's hurry or it will be a full lecture on being late which would apply to our resume, "Alexis said sarcastically and I wanted to laugh because her words made no sense. But I understood her unlike me, she was the center of it all. Being the vice Chancellor's daughter wasn't easy. She and to be the perfect example and she was exceptional"Oh thank God" she exhaled in relief when we got to class and it was as noisy as e
"Hey ..hey...no look at me...yeah look at Uncle," Kyan said waving the baby toy in the air and the baby followed his gaze. "Good girl...look at this...her name is... Vivienne or just Vivie" he added and showed a photo of Vivienne. Of course, he didn't know if the baby could even see or recognize the picture he was showing her. She was just three months old"Come on Sky focus," he said, sounding a little coy as he sat there. His niece was in a world of her own. But she looked really cute in her pink romper with pink socks and a cute headband with a ribbon attached to it. She was giggling and moving around with her tiny little hands grabbing things and fighting to get her tiny fingers in her mouth"Okay...we are on our fourth session of knowing Vivienne...she's cute with eyes like yours...not sure why but you have beautiful eyes just like her, "Kyan said, making a thinking face as he looked at a pic of Vivienne then his niece. Of course, her name was Skylar, short for the Sky. Victor na
******Three months later(New York)**(Vivienne)"Can I help you?""Yes, please...I'm new here...can you show me where the library is?"I asked, looking around the place"Yeah down the road...you can take a taxi from here or just walk but it will take a little while" the lady replied showing me the directions I smiled and thanked her before I walked away leaving the fast-food restaurant I was having my lunch atI glanced at my watch and it was getting late and the goofy girl I was waiting for hadn't shown up"Where are you, Alex?"I said and quickly crossed the road to the other side so I could wait for her. It was early in the afternoon, the day was crisp and sunny. Although it was a little windy which made my hair blow around disturbing my peace I didn't mind as I stood there staring at the brochure in my hand. I looked around the busy streets. The lady I asked at the restaurant told me this was where the public library was. I would have used the one at the University but I decided to
**2 Weeks later**"S...sir should I…"Julia asked when she accidentally walked into the room Vivienne used to sleep in but stopped when she met Victor along the way. He didn't know why he came here but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried"Leave," Victor said coldly and Julia didn't even waste time as she retreated away Victor stood by the door for a while then rested his hand on the doorknob. A long sigh escaped his sealed lips as he pushed the door open and walked inHe turned on the lights revealing a neat well-put-together room. His Surrogate's bedroom. This was her bedroom. It had been two weeks since she left him after giving birth. He didn't blame her at the end of the day, they had a deal. She signed a contract which she honored. It was up to her to leave he had no say in her decision but she should have done what was needed of herVictor shook the thoughts away and walked to the bed. It was the same, the room was the same and empty. Her perfume lingered in the a
(Vivienne)"Destination please?""United States," I said, handing her my details as well as my password. The lady looked at me for a while and continued her work"Vacation or…""School" I replied without delay and the woman glanced up then shrugged. I didn't know why she did that but I didn't care as I stood there waiting for my ticket. I was lucky the plane to the US hasn't left yet. It has been an hour since I got here. I had everything ready to go but just needed to confirm the tickets and it was taking longer than I expected"Are you okay Ms?" the lady asked, not sure why but I was fine, just a little cold. I didn't know why it was this cold now of all days. I was wearing black leggings with ankle boots as well as a long-sleeved sweater that reached up to my neck and a brown long coat to keep warm but still, I could feel the wind blowing around"I'm fine please, "I remarked distantly, trying, by all means, to keep her off. I came to the airport early. I wanted to leave this place
(Vivienne)It felt like a dream, I felt empty and aching everywhere. I tried to move myself hoping to stop the pain I was feeling but everything seemed hard. I wanted so badly to open my eyes and see where I was unfortunately they seemed glued and wouldn't open"Ahh!"I tried to shift a little and when I moved my hand. I felt a sharp pain that made me his and kept my hand still. My head was spinning and when I flickered my eyes opened. I could only see blurry visions and it took blinking multiple times to finally adjust to the Bright Light of the strange room I found myself in"Well you are awake" I heard a small female melodious voice and suddenly a nurse was standing before me. She was smiling at me which made me wonder. I was so lost to find myself in the white-painted room which smelled like medicine and a mixture of certain cleaning agents"W...what happened here?"I managed to voice out the words but hearing myself, I sounded so restrained as if I had lost my voice at some point"
