Six years ago, It’s official, I’m in love. Is it a little cliché, yes but that’s the only way to describe the way I feel about him. He’s so dreamy and I get to call him mine. I was resigned to the fact that I would never fall in love and I’m glad to have been wrong. The past six months have brought me so much joy and satisfaction and Carter has been at the helm of it, he’s made me deliriously happy and has exceeded all that I thought that I knew about love. I can finally say that I am living the wattpad life. My alarm rings and I flinch in surprise, I can’t believe that I am daydreaming again but truthfully since I started dating Carter, this has been my life. I check the time and it’s 6:40, barely 30 minutes before my best friend gets here and that girl is overtly punctual so she’s going to be here on time.

CHAPTER ONE

Present day Valerie p.o.v Today is going to be a good day, I can feel it. The weather is perfect, the sun is not too heavy and I’m signing the biggest deal of my entire career today. It’s practically a done deal and the investing company just needs to sign on the dotted line and I will have enough funding to officially break into the fashion industry. It’s been hard trying to do this especially as a single mother but my son has been the biggest inspiration, his birth gave me a purpose to live for and since then it’s been two of us. About three years ago, I graduated fashion school and have gone on to successfully create a good brand. My work gained popularity almost immediately, and since then it has been a really good time and I have sold my work anonymously with my identity being a mystery. Truly anonymity has helped to build my brand especially as I dabble in eccentric pieces. But now is the time for me to step into the limelight. It helps that I am nominated for a pr

CHAPTER 2

Carter’s p.o.v 2 weeks ago The sun is far from rising up when I wake up, I look at my bedside clock and the time reads 4:30. Another wasted effort at sleeping seeing as I only went to bed two hours ago, trying to get more sleep would only disappoint me so I stand up and go into my office. I finish off some work and check my mails, I am about to go to the gym when my phone rings. I look at the caller id and I see that Daniel is calling, he’s supposed to be in Paris for his honeymoon so what’s so important that he’s calling. I pick up the phone, “What’s happening Cole, I thought you’d be so far up your wife’s ass that you wouldn’t be reachable for the month”. “Ha ha very funny, I’m calling with a very important issue.” My hackles rise up the more he’s silent………. “Out with it Cole some of us have work to do”. He sighs and replies “I have found her”, then it’s my turn to remain silent and after a few seconds he says “can you hear me”? And I almost nod before I remember t

CHAPTER 3

Present day Carter’s p.o.v The day I’ve been waiting for has finally come. I get to see Valerie today. I have planned everything and waited patiently till this day. I’m nothing if not efficient, which is exactly why I threw in the idea of us handling the funding of the collaboration. Nobody refuses free money not even the wealthy ones. I go through my morning routine as usual and I go to the kitchen to get my breakfast. On my way down, I stop by the office to get my phone and as soon as I open it, so many messages flock in, so much so that one would think that I was a child on his first day of school. This is why I don’t like family members being involved in my affairs, all they do is nag and try to make your business their own. Being the head of this family does get tiring. Since I found Valerie, I’ve had to field calls from everybody including my own parents, somehow they found out about her and since then it has been an onslaught of various things. The most annoyin

Chapter 4

Valerie p.o.v My life is ruined. “How is this real life?” “What's happening right now?” “I pinch myself to confirm that I'm not dreaming and the sharp pain that registers in my brain confirms that I am officially fucked.” “How did this day turn out to be the worst day of my life?” “Who did I offend that would wish me such luck?” “I am sure that I look a mess with how much I'm blinking but that's all that's stopping me from crying or laughing hysterically.” “Why does my case always go from best to worst in the most dramatic way?” “I'm sure God must hate me, because if he didn't why would I be looking at the one problem that I have no answer to?” “What is Carter doing here?” I see Arabella's lips move but she might as well be speaking a language I don't understand because I can't take my eyes away from him. “How is he still so handsome?” “How dare he look so good?” “I try to feel for my chair but I can't reach it, only then do I realise that I'm standing.” “I'm not prepare

Chapter 5

Arabella's p.o.v The meeting does not go as planned, Valerie took one look at my brother's face and turned into an actual ghost. There was pure fear on her face and it was so heart-breaking to watch. Her reaction makes me wonder if there is more to their separation or my brother is just that scary. All our previous meetings have gone extremely well and it's so disheartening to watch all our efforts go down the drain. Especially since this is my project and it is something that I have been working on for a long time and my brother does not know this but I found Valerie a long time ago. I've worn her dresses and I have anonymously bought even more. I figured that would be my little way of getting to know her. I orchestrated using the fashion awards to bring her out of her hiding place. None of my family members know that I am on the board of directors for the most prestigious fashion school. I use an alias and so far nobody has come close to figuring out my secret. You might

Chapter 6

Valerie p.o.v I don't know how many traffic laws I break before I reach my house. I stumble in with unsteady feet and quickly run to the toilet where I throw up everything in my belly. After I rinse my mouth, I undress and tuck myself into bed where I spend hours reviewing the events that happened today. “How does he still affect me so much, its been six whole years. I should be over him” But I can't deny that my heart skipped a neat and I felt butterflies when he said my name. Carter has always been good-looking but now, he looks like people were sacrificed in order for God to get the required mix for his creation. I imagine that this was how beautiful Greek gods were. I feel my whole body tingling as I imagine the scratches that will be left on me from his beard if he kisses me, then I further imagine his hands paying attention to my body. I'm so lost in thought that it takes a while to register that the loud noise is coming from my phone. I quickly pick up the

Chapter 7

Valerie p.o.v On Monday morning I can't get out of bed fast enough, however immediately I raise my head I'm hit with the biggest headache and I immediately regret all the drinks that Janet and I had over the weekend. I can't believe she made me drink that much. We definitely took advantage of the fact that George was at a sleep over and had a vampire diaries marathon and that movie is best enjoyed with a lot of snacks and wine. That wasn't the wisest decision as I precisely have less than an hour to sober up and be present at the Sullivan group for the official contract signing. The thought of seeing Carter again sobers me instantly. I can't believe him. “How dare he show his face after what he did to me”. I haven't told Janet that I ran into Carter or that it's his family that I'll be working with. I'm sure that she would advise me to drop their company and search for another one. I don't want to involve her in this drama and I'm also hoping that Carter will not pay

chapter 8

Carter's p.o.v Checking the time on my wristwatch I see that it's past 7, a slow smile spreads on my face as I quickly turned to the monitor that has all the feeds from the cameras in my company. I scroll past several videos until I get to the conference room and my eyes immediately find Valerie. She looks exceptionally stunning in the green dress that she has on. She looks so free as she smiles with my sister. I watch as Arabella pulls her into a hug and she sports a content look on her face. I imagine her looking at me like that when we wake up in the morning. The thought makes me pause, I ponder on it for a little while and my heart does a little jump as I come into the realization that I want Valerie. I know that I wanted to have her again but this image has made me realize that I want her long term. I don't like that she's giving my smiles to someone else, yes the someone is my sister but still. It's annoying that she's this happy when I'm not around. I'm a little

Chapter 9

Valerie's p.o.v Lunch with Arabella was great. We discussed fashion, our favorite designers and trends. I left feeling fulfilled and we promised to keep in touch with each other. I can't believe she's a Cole, she has such a calming presence and is literarily so down to earth. She made me feel so comfortable and I almost confessed everything about George to her. As soon as I get home, I open a bottle of champagne in order to fully celebrate with Janet and I go upstairs to shower, I'm in a good mood so I'm making coq au vin for dinner today. it's something traditional and a fan favorite in our house. I prep the ingredients and go upstairs to take a quick shower after which I return back to cooking dinner. I'm just about to bring the food down when the door bell rings, before I open it I hear the telltale sound of keys in the door and I relax knowing that it's Janet and George. The both of them always come home together because Janet teaches the high school where George
