Eva stood behind the floor-to-ceiling window that was in their bedroom in her bathrobe, admiring the trees as usual. Looking at the beautiful flowers on the trees, a sense of love for the entire world enveloped her. She began to wish Julian was there with her, admiring the wonderful view with her. She became grateful to the universe. A feeling of satisfaction took over. Eva picked her phone up when it beeped as a result of a text that came in. She checked her phone, and the text message came from Julian. She tossed the phone aside. Julian told her to get ready for a video call with him. He also directed her on how to switch some pixel diffusers mounted in the bedroom on. Eva followed his instructions and switched the lights. Since Eva noticed he admired her a lot, she decided to give his eyes the best view ever. She walked into the closet and chose one of her best nightclothes. The see-through spaghetti straps off-shoulder nightgown was quite a see-through. She s
Eva drove out of the mansion the next day to her father's pharmaceutical company. ReM pharmaceuticals was formerly known as ReX pharmaceuticals before Richard changed it to ReM, bringing in the initials of all the people in his family. Eva proceeded to the elevator after pulling over at the parking lot. Her father was not in his office when she walked in. "He is in a meeting with some stakeholders," Jessica, the secretary, said behind her. Eva looked at her and sighed. She had not forgiven her for trying to seduce James the day he followed her to her father's office. That day was the first day James followed Eva to her father's office. He sat on one of the seats at the front desk, waiting for Eva who had gone inside to inform her dad about James's presence. Eva came out of the office and caught Jessica sitting close to James with her fingers between her clavicle and her breasts. She went back to her father's office and reported her, however, her father did n
Eva waited in the car for some minutes when she pulled over in her garage. She did not want Hazel or any of the girls to notice she had been crying. She wiped her eyes out before alighting from the car. She perceived Julian's perfume in the foyer immediately she walked in, however, to avoid questions, she waved at Carlos who sat on one of the sofas in the lounge, and headed straight to the staircase. "Eva!" Carlos called. Eva waved again and continued climbing the stairs hurriedly. She put her thumb on the optical scanner and could not wait to get into the bedroom. She needed her favorite view so badly to calm herself down.Eva was taken aback by what she saw. She trembled and halted in the middle of the room. Julian lay on his bed with his eyes fixed on his phone. He just got out of the bathroom and the smell of his soap filled the room. She began to take steps backward. "Where did you go?" Julian asked with a quiet tone that held some undertone o
Eva could not stand his nearness anymore. Julian's vitality and compelling eyes overwhelmed her. She noticed a sudden feeling of excitement overtook her when he responded swiftly to her kiss as though he had been waiting for her to make the move.She began to quiver at the sweet tenderness of his kiss. The longing for the fulfillment of his lovemaking took over. Julian stood up and helped her to her feet. He pulled her closer to his chest. Eva crouched on the warm lines of his body."Let's go to our bedroom," Julian whispered into her ear. Eva shook her head. "Are you still mad at me?" Julian asked. "No, but I want to clean this place," Eva said"Your girls will do it tomorrow. Just come with me." "I'm heading to the kitchen; I'm freaking hungry." "I'm coming with you. I had the worst dinner tonight. I guess that is also the reason why you threw the food away." Julian said. "I could have managed if you hadn't sent leftovers from the dishwash
Eva closed her eyes and took in a long breath. Julian gave out a great peal of laughter. "I know you will like it," he whispered into her ear, putting his arms around her waist. "I love it! You blew my mind away!" Eva screamed as she began to move closer to the best indoor flower garden that was graciously mounted close to the window. There was a grow light and automatic watering. The scent from the flowers filled the bedroom. Eva found it quite soothing. She kept taking in a long breath as she walked towards it ploddingly, dragging Julian who was holding her waist along. She sat beside the garden and admired the beautiful flowers with a smile on her face. Julian sat beside her. "You can sit here and admire the garden at night and visit the main garden during the day," Julian said, drawing her closer to his body. Eva did not pay attention to what he was saying. The beautiful sight in her presence had blown her mind away. "Flowers are beautiful," Eva smile
The weather was nice and particularly pleasant with the invigorating freshness of the morning frost in the air. Eva slowly pulled out of her husband's arms to avoid waking him up. She sat on the bed and fixed her eyes on the indoor flower garden. Julian pulled her back. "Do you ever get tired of staring at flowers?" Julian whimpered. Eva shook her head. "Good morning," she greeted. "Call your girls to make breakfast, I want you to stay with me," Julian said, holding her tight. "No," Eva grinned trying to break away from his tight grip. Julian let go of her. "I have much work today. I'm going work on the garden and stadium this morning before the sun comes out." "Eva, don't try it! Dave is going to send another landscaper. I talked to him yesterday." "Thank you, but I really don't like what you did to Rowan." "He disobeyed me. I warned him to stay away from you." "Julian, do you know you are a jealous husband?" Eva said with hands aki
Julian stood and watched her as she walked close to her. He put his hands on her shoulders to stop her from moving further and carrying out whatever plans she had. "Julian, I want you, please take me," Hazel said trying to move further. "I'm not in the mood for this, please, grab your towel," Julian said pointing at the towel she dropped on the bedroom floor. "Are you going out today?" Hazel asked. "No," Julian responded. "Good, we have enough time. Julian, I want you to spend the morning with me. We can have our breakfast on the bed, what do you think?" Hazel asked, her face beamed. "I'm going to take as much rest as my body needs. I shall resume training tomorrow." "Julian, you have been ignoring me. What did I do?" Hazel said, tilting her head. "Does she makes you happy more than I do?" "Hazel, please stop the comparison. You and Eva are not in any form of competition!" "Julian, we are now. We are competing for your attention. It is ob
"Eva, I'm sorry," Julian said, holding her head firmly on his chest. Eva relaxed and felt like staying there forever. Julian lifted her and lowered her down on the bed. He sat beside her and kept looking at her face. Eva threw her face away. "Tell me the price, I will pay," Julian muttered after what seemed like an everlasting silence. "Price for what?" Eva asked, still looking away. "Eva, I'm your first and I want to be your last. I don't want anyone to come in between. If a price is required before this can be achieved, I'm ready to pay it," Julian said, removing some strands of hair off her face. "Will you ever allow me to talk to your gender?" Eva asked. "No" "Why? You don't trust me?" Eva asked. Julian kept quiet and kept staring at her. "Give me a reason to trust you and I will trust even your shadow," Julian said. "What does she want?" Eva asked. Julian sat upright and took in a deep breath. She looked at her and at the new indoor
Eva and Roy arrived at Julian's lane at 11:05 PM. The four feet high driveway luxurious gate had been closed. The logistics office was also closed. Roy blasted the horn for more than five minutes, and none of the logisticians on night duty came out. The rain was quite heavy, so the horn was not heard. "Let's go back," Roy said, switching the ignition on. Eva grabbed her clutch bag and opened the door. "Seriously?" "I'm going in," Eva responded and came down. Roy came down too. "I'm going with you." "No, go home," Eva said walking towards the gate. Roy continued following her. She raised her long gown and crossed the gate. Roy did the same too. The rain was quite heavy, but Eva did not mind. Eva never knew the distance between the entrance and the mansion was a bit far until that day. The road seemed endless. "Roy, please…go…back," Eva sputtered as a result of the cold and shivering that had taken over her body. "No," Roy continued walking beside her. A torchlight came dire
Julian stood behind the window of the hotel room where he spent the night. He couldn't sleep in his bedroom without Eva in his arms. Everything around the house reminded him of her. It was as though she had gone for long, so he took his bodyguards out and lodged in a hotel. He quickly turned when his phone began to ring and walked toward the small table in his hotel room. He accepted the call reluctantly. His father had called him more than ten times already without positive news."Julian, come back home," Dr. Viraj's voice came in as soon as he picked up the call. "Is she back?" Julian asked with a flat tone. "No, but you have training tomorrow and a tournament on Wednesday. I'm sure you don't want your opponent to defeat you in your home. Please start coming."Julian sighed and hung up. He dropped the phone on the table. He was surprised when another call came in on it. He rolled his eyes and picked up the call. "Julian, did you just hang up on me?" Dr. Viraj asked. "I'm sorry
James liked to spend the weekend with his family, however, Eva was surprised when she arrived at his residence and his elder brother told her he had not set his eyes on James since they left Julian's house. She knew the only place she would find him - his house. He bought the house a year ago. Eva kept wondering why he decided to spend the weekend in his house. She was welcomed by a blaring sound of music and the unmistakable scent of marijuana as soon as she pulled over and alighted at James' garage. There were different types of exotic cars all over the place. Eva glanced down at her wristwatch and frowned. It was 2:09 pm. Some of his friends who were in front of the building when she arrived welcomed her with joy on their faces. She was led to the pool bar where James was with three beautiful blonde female strippers twerking him back and front. He was also touching them sensually. One of the girls was completely nude. Eva stood there, staring at them. James knew she was st
Eva shuddered when she opened her eyes and saw Nora smiling at her. She was dressed in a very short gown that accentuated her boobs and slim outline and big hips. Eva ran her eyes on her massive cleavage and wondered who she was trying to impress with the devilish dressing of hers. "Nora!" Eva said a bit loudly. "I saw James leaving, he looked sad. Are you guys fighting already?" Nora smirked. "What did he tell you?" Eva asked curiously. Nora had a wide mouth, so Eva was scared James must have told her about her condition. "Nothing, he did not respond to my greeting. He ignored me totally." "It's been long you know…I'm surprised to see you," Eva forced a smile. "You chased me away, have you forgotten? I decided to maintain my space." "I'm sorry…it's quite late, are you going to a party, or are you here to keep me company?" Eva asked, sitting slightly up. "Keep you company? When Julian is alone?" Nora smirked. "Eva, I'm not going to a party or here to keep you company. J
Molly turned and saw James walking towards them with his hands in his pocket. She quickly swiveled him so he would not look at Eva who had refused to dress up. She was only putting on a g-string. Her chest was bare and her big bounty mounted like two watermelons. "James, please, wait in the lounge, she will be with you shortly," Molly said walking him to the door. "Is everything alright?" James asked. He was quite worried. "Everything is fine. Fetch her father at once.""Mrs. Miles…""Please, wait in the lounge," Molly said and banged the door. "Eva, please go in there and pick any of your nightwear""Mom, please let me be, I'm not thinking straight right now," she said, sitting on her bed again. Molly opened her closet, brought out nightwear, and threw it at her. Eva tossed it aside. "Your dad is coming up to see you, please put on that gown now," Molly said. Eva ignored her and continued staring outside through the window. Molly grabbed her bedsheets and wrapped it around he
Eva was turned out by the ringing and childish giggle turning up from her father's exclusive lounge. She wiped her eyes and yawned. The two-hour sleep really helped her. She noticed her strength surged up.There was darkness in her bedroom, probably the bulbs were switched off since no one was using the bedroom. There was a thin reflection of light. Eva shrieked when she first saw it because she did not know what it was. She picked courage and walked toward it. Eva discovered a phone fell off the table and was lying face-down. The light was a result of a text message that came in. The phone unlocked immediately her fingers touched the fingerprint sensor. She was surprised James hasn't relinquished her access to his phone. She sat on her bed when the message reader began to read with an automated female voice. "Hi, James, how did it go? Did you get her back? I wish you luck. I must say, you are indeed a stallion just like my friend said."Eva dropped the phone and felt bad. She was
"I want to remove the word 'blackmailed' from your marriage," Dr. Viraj said. "You can't remove it because I blackmailed her. I told her I would share the CCTV Footage on her wedding day if she failed to call the wedding off and I was going to do it. She knew I would do it and called the wedding off." "If we don't remove 'blackmailed' from your marriage, it will forever be on the lips of everyone. Your name will be associated with blackmail. The next generation is going to continue where we stopped. My family would be known as blackmailers. Julian, I don't want this and I'm sure you don't want it too. You built a good name for yourself, do not allow a mistake that can be corrected to ruin your career," Dr. Viraj said. "What do you want me to do?" Julian ask. "Sign the papers…" Julian stood up from the chair he was sitting on immediately. "Julian, please, sit down and listen to me first." Julian sat down and looked less concerned. "Eva will come back to you. If she does, w
Julian crossed his legs and fixed his eyes on his phone. He was in his house so he was not in a haste. "How are you, Mr. Hampton?" Bruce Daniels asked after twenty minutes of silence. "I'm good," Julian replied after some seconds of silence too, still staring at his phone."Are you aware that you poke your finger into my eyes?" Bruce Daniels asked, keeping the gazette he was holding aside. Julian lifted his eyes and frowned. "Poked my fingers in your eyes?" He tilted his brows. "You called the wedding of James Daniels off simply because his bride's personal maid had an accident six years ago! As if that was not enough, you framed him up for murder because he wants his fiancee back! Do you know who you messed with? James Daniels, my second son! We lost millions of dollars! For what?...""What do you want, Mr. Daniels?" Julian asked arrogantly. "Are you out of your mind?" How dare you interrupt me! Who the hell do you think you are?""Sir, please calm down," the lawyer that sat clo
The long-awaited day had come. Julian woke up with a smile. He could not wait to get James and his people off their shoulders. He believed everything was going to end today. His face beamed as he enjoyed his breakfast with his wife beside him. He wondered why Eva was not excited. Julian led his wife back to the bedroom since she wanted to rest her back on the bed. He kissed her lips and walked out of the bedroom. He began to supervise everywhere to make sure they were perfectly cleaned. His logistic manager walked beside him as Carlos who always kept him company traveled to Johannesburg to see his girlfriend who was a med student in Witwatersrand. A call came on his phone, Julian looked at the phone, it was one of the logisticians at the entrance of the lane. He accepted the call immediately. "Sir, some men are here to see you. Their names are not on the list," a voice said from the other end of the phone conversation. "Hei, Paul, the garden needs more work. You need to clear the
