Nortia's POV

Just like Alexis had said, when I was awake, they were right out there waiting for me. He hadn't even taken so long to find them, I thought it would take some time to do so but it seemed I had been wrong.

I didn't want to think about how exactly last night had gone because he had looked so pissed but I knew I couldn't just move in with him. He wouldn't be able to make me have a change of heart and it was going to take more than just a plea to make that happen.

“ Let's go,” I said to them. The guard sat at the passenger seat while I had to sit at the back.

I guessed he was trying to make sure that I didn't go with the doctor, he was trying to cut off my communication with him and I didn't know if that was jealousy as well.

“We will be going shopping later in the day,” the guard announced to me.

“Will you be chanced, madam?”

“ I wouldn't be”

I guessed I had to get used to being called this way, I didn't know what my coworkers would say and how they would look at me

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Deceived

    Nortia's POV Amend? That was like the last thing I was expecting to hear and there was also no way I was going to believe that. I scoffed, making sure that it was loud enough for him to hear, I could see his fist clenched before I answered. “ The last thing I think you will do is make amends, I don't believe an iota of what you just said” Samantha had her hands underneath her boobs as she gazed at me, eyes piercing through me. “ I know what you are possibly going to say, but you should know as well that there is no way we are going to give you anything else aside that, beside…” her shoulders went in a shrug. “ We are being lenient with you, who exactly would be able to do that with you if it isn't us?”“Stop it” her father admonished, giving her a gentle nudge on the arm as he did so “ Nortia, I shouldn't have treated you in such a way and I have only realized my mistake now, and it wouldn't happen ever again” he apologized. I couldn't sense the sincerity in those words he had

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Fury

    Nortia's POV The click of the door sent rage down my spine as I flipped my head round, taking a good look at him. “What do you think you are doing? Did you really trick me into coming here? Using your grandmother, is that how low you can go!” I raged at him, waiting for an answer when he chuckled, inching closer. “I knew you would be this way, but I am glad I got you here. Now tell me Nortia, why is it Alexis? How could you even get married to him? What exactly about him did you find so different that you had to end up with him?”“ Because he is better than you, for a start, he doesn't cheat and…” tiny ripple of cackles rented the air at what I had just said. “ You think he is better than me? Really? Can't you see? He saw you as someone easy to get and you fell into his trap, it's a trap Nortia, one that I can help you get away from, all you have to do is come back to me, I know there's no way you are married to him and…”“ I'm married to him” I answered, looking straight into hi

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Move in

    Alexis's POV My eyes went to the ruffled shirt she had on and the hand that wrapped themselves around her tightly and I gnashed my teeth. I hated how she was trying everything in her to piss me off when she wasn't supposed to do such, I seethed in rage which shimmered above me before my feet sauntered over to her. “ What's wrong?” I could see she was close to tears and she was trying hard not to let them fall. My gaze travelled to the doctor as I wondered if he was the one who had just her but I couldn't deduce anything right now. I swallowed, yanking her to myself, I asked again.“ What is wrong?” I waited for her to give an answer when they ran down her cheek, in torrent they did. “Back off, leave. Now!” I ordered, my voice booming across as I said to them. They scampered away, the doctor, the guard and her driver as well. My anger evaporated when she squeezed my shirt, grasping it so tight that my hands fell to her lower back. I shook my head, trying so hard not to think ba

    Nortia's POV I never knew it would come back to bite me, the pain I felt was forgotten for a while as my mouth fell wide agape. “You can't do that, I can't move in with you, that wasn't in the contract and you know that as well” I accepted the blazer he threw over my shoulders, my heart warmed at what he had done, before I chided myself, getting that behind me. “Then there is no way I am going to come with you to your uncle's place, there has to be something that would be enough to get you to concede to what I want and although I hate that I have to do this, it is the only way I can get you to move in with me, I hate to be petty but you are leaving me with no choice than to do this”His hands rested on my shoulders while he stared at me. “ I know this isn't what you want, I do know, but I have to get you close to me somehow, I need you where I can protect you, where I will be able to sleep, walk knowing that you are fine, Nortia” his words came in a rush at me. “ Look at you” he

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Revenge

    Alexis's POV Her eyes widened at what she had just said, her voice muffled as well while she peered at me with eyes so tender that it had me at a loss at what to say or do. “ Is something wrong?” I had thought I was doing something worthwhile while doing this, but it seemed like I had done something I shouldn't have done. Her tears lightened as she sniffed, dragging them in before she said to me;“ I have never had anyone do this for me, no one has ever made me feel this way, feel cherished at all”she bared her emotions at me. My hand hung above her head while I was left thinking about what I was to do in such a situation, was this a good thing or a bad one? “ I can have it renovated if it isn't fine by you, the decorators will be here in an instant and you no longer have to worry about it” I answered her.Letting her know that I was fine with it if she wasn't at all. I had been wrong, should have asked if she wanted to do so before I even started off at the beginning. “ No, t

    Alexis's POV “ You don't have to do this, you can't do this to me. You know who I am, you know who my family are and they aren't going to like this” A scoff left my lips at what he had just said before pushing him until he had his back against the wall, fidgeting against the chair. “ And you think that I will be scared? What exactly do you think will happen after what you did to Nortia, that I will pat you on the back for a job well done?” I was trying to keep my anger from escalating because all I wanted to do was strangle his neck until he was unable to take in air. I sniffed in, waiting for him to give an answer when the scent permeated the air. “ You peed on yourself? Are you even a man?” I held out a hand, accepting the taser which I had been given as I stroked across to him. “ It was wrong of me to do so, I shouldn't have done that in the first place, please don't ... .help me apologize to her, let her know that I'm sorry, it is the last time and it wouldn't happen anymo

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Tingled

    Nortia's POV Falling asleep was taking more than I had expected, I didn't know why but I will be attributing that to the fact that I was in a new environment and so, I had to get used to it. I tossed again, before laying upright, looking at the ceiling, the net towered over me. I had been glad when he had said that, not minding the fact that he must have looked into things he wasn't supposed to, but a side of me wondered if it wasn't too early, and if I really deserved anything I was getting right now. A stroll down to the walk-in closet had shown me a different tale than what I was expecting, it was hard sort of to believe that they were for me. They fitted just right, in every single way like I had imagined, the slam of my heart told me I wasn't overthinking, that indeed they were mine and I was supposed to be glad about it, but I just couldn't help it What if I got used to leisure such as this and when we finally part well, I find it hard to cope? So I was having double thoug

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Glammed up

    Nortia's POV He left me deep in thought as he walked up the stairs, with shoulders slouched as he did. I wondered what he had meant by that, but shoving it off my shoulders, I decided not to worry myself about that. I was going to take it as one of those words that he must have said because he had been thinking of countless things, which didn't have anything to do with me. “ By the way” he said as he turned to take a look at me. “ There is a bedside fridge in your room, but I guess it should be empty, I will have the housekeeper stock it up tomorrow” he gave a subtle nod before strolling off. Picking the items back into the first aid kit, I placed them in carefully, making sure that it wouldn't lead to any one of them shattering. With hands holding the cotton wool soaked with blood, I pondered on how tomorrow will go but on a second thought, I decided against it, it would be better if I let tomorrow worry about itself. *************An ache tore through me so persistently and n

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Ring a bell

    Alexis's POVMy feet glided across the pathway, eyes heavy as I sauntered through waiting to know what exactly had prompted such a behavior. My father wants one who will do something as such, he wasn't one to take action impromptu, and as such I needed to know why he had done so. My feet halted just across the driveway where he stood, a back against me. “ What do you want? What have you over here and at such an ungodly hour?”“ You sold our shares?” “ Did I?” He turned to me, his face blank while he was mute. “ Don't you know what is happening? You ought to have known about it, the shareholders, you really have no clue about it?”A heave left his lips, so deep that I heard him before I bridged the gap between us. “ I didn't even know that he would do such, your uncle wanted it and he came to me and…”“ He sold it?”“ He did” I could tell the regret that laced his lips, the one that made him wish he hadn't been so soft toward his family, the one who he had gotten from getting mar

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Explaining to do

    Alexis's POV I could tell by the way she glanced at me that all she was thinking about was how I must have messed up when I haven't even done such a thing. A sigh left my lips as I made to touch her shoulders which she evaded, taking a step backward. It hadn't even gotten to that yet. “ I'm listening” she whistled, hands tucked behind her as she did so. “ Say what you intended to say,” she added, still waiting. “ It's nothing big, your phone” I could tell by how the light kept going off that she must be having countless messages at the moment, I had seen her take pictures of the decorations and the flower bouquet and she must have posted it. It had been no biggie as I had seen it online, seen how most Ladies swooned over it and I thought I should do the same and when her eyes glowed, I knew I had made the right choice. “ What is it about her?” She pulled me out of my reverie, bringing me back to the issue at hand. “ You said something about Charity?”“ You haven't seen it yet?

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Littered

    Nortia's POVMy life on the line? I held a snort at what I had just heard, wanting to make sure it had been a mistake because it had to be that as there was no way he would have been right. I know I hadn't gotten the time to gloss through, but even at that, I didn't expect that there would be anything in there which would put my life at risk. I wasn't going to lie, goosebumps trailed my arms but I kept my thoughts back down, not wanting them to come up. The ones that I would be ruining things before I even started or rather before we even started. “Where did you get this?” Alexis asked again, this time his voice firmer than the last, he was putting it back into my bag, still looking around like he was trying to make sure that no one was looking and no one had noticed. “ I am fine” I assured, not wanting to look at what was going on, it was all too natural to me. I had seen it and had taken it because I knew it would be vital which also wasn't enough reason for him to act this way

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Life is on the line

    Nortia's POV I wasn't one to dig too deep but I knew I couldn't let this go, there had to be something that I had to do and whatever it was,I needed to do so fast. The gray color splashed on the wall of the office and the leather chair only confirmed what my uncle had said, I didn't have any power in there. I was relegated to the background and what had he called me? ‘A figurehead” A hand clasped around my mouth as I tried to muffle the cackle when my assistant walked in with bulks of documents which he dropped on the table. “ What's that?” I questioned, turning my attention to look at what it was when he glanced at the folders, the manilla files that filled the table. “ These?” He glanced at them before storming out without giving me an answer. I tapped my feet on the marble tiles thinking of how I was to take this in when my eyes caught the manilla file which contained financial reports of the previous year. I tried to keep my hands to myself but damned it on the second tho

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    figurehead

    Nortia's POV The glances on their faces told me they weren't expecting me and I knew that they had planned something else behind my back or rather, they were about to. Taking the seat just across from my uncle, I paid no heed to the scoffs and whispers as I did. My uncle gnashed his teeth beside me but that was only going to be the first, because I had numerous things in mind to make him pay for. Hopefully, my presence here will make things better. If he decided to do anything contrary to what I was expecting, I would have a great time thwarting whatever plan it was they had. “ Well” I glanced around, making sure everyone met my eyes before locking both hands together. “ What was it that you were talking about that had you chatting so amicably?” I threw it at them waiting for an answer but it seems they were all tongue tied. I didn't expect my uncle to change so soon, na, the devil will always have his spit and my uncle was no different, but even at that, I had expected him to ke

    Nortia's POVThose words, the one where he had urged me to go ahead and conquer was something I hadn't been told, I knew everything about him felt so different. It was difficult to place my hand on these emotions, the different ones that filled my mind but I nodded anyway, listening to what he was saying. I guess this was what it meant to have a father, that space in you that outweighs every single thing, I was tempted to have him in my arms, let him yank me into his while patting my back, and as hard as I tried, I couldn't make the move to do so, so when he approached, grasping me closer to himself, my hand fell limp by my side. “ Thank you” I mouthed out in gratitude, chewing on my lips before I added. “Father” He yanked me away immediately, placing tender kisses on my forehead before he looked above my shoulders. “Will you be going with her?” He directed at Alexis. “ No, I can handle this myself. He has a company to tend to and I wouldn't want to disrupt anything” I explaine

  • Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman    Make things right

    Alexis's POV I watched, all of the discussions, a hand draped across my wife's waist as I listened to her interaction with Samantha who obviously had lost what I would have termed as shame. One would have thought that being caught on camera would have them standing back and staying out of the public but I guess you can't beat the shameless. She looked like she was going to lurge toward my wife and I waited for her to do so, I wasn't going to fight but I knew Nortia was no pushover either. She might have been before me but not anymore. Now, she was a woman of herself, one who could handle them by herself needing little or no help from me. “What did you just say?” Maxwell was the one who had asked while Samantha's eyes fell to the ground before she held Maxwell's. “She killed who?” “George” Nortia's voice reverberated, bouncing off against the wall as she repeated, her lips curled into a smirk. Maxwell's face flinched before he turned to Samantha demanding. “You killed him? Not

    Nortia's POVI didn't know where I had gotten the nerves but I sat still, peering at him as I pondered on what he would do. He slammed his lips over mine, sliding his tongue in between my lips as he kissed me, a hand wrapped around my waist. “Alex” I muttered, racking a hand through his hair as I did, throwing caution to the wind. His hands ran through me before he knelt, lips on my boobs and he sucked, flickered, and licked it. My toes curled as I threw my head backward, the tension weaving through me while I tried to muster out the words that had stuck in my lips. A bit on my boobs sent tiny jolts crackling through me before I let out a heave barely trying to grasp him onto myself. “You look….” He had pulled away, taking a proper glance at me as he did. “Astonishing” My clit pursed at his words, when he slipped a finger in-between my legs, still maintaining his gaze at me. Nudging me gently against the bed, a yelp left my lips as he straddled me before positioning his cock i

    Nortia's POVI had a hand wrapped around myself as I peered outside, glancing so hard against the vast greenery which laid in front of me while envisioning Alexis walking up to me, wrapping a hand around my waist before snuggling against my neck. The hand tightened even closer before I let out a sigh at how desperately futile everything would turn out to be. The presenter spoke in the background, William's shares were stabilized while the Louis kept depleting with each moment that passed. I knew I had decided to meet with Samantha but I had a second thought at the last minute, she should be made to suffer even if it was a tiny bit on what she had done. She had killed someone, one who didn't hold anything against her and I would be stupid to go right now, telling her not to fall into her father's cocooned lies. To think those were all sentiments, he was the last person I thought would hurt her, because I knew he loved her so well, so why would he want to make her pay for this? M
