Getting him Jealous I was already growing horns, but I managed to keep them slim. Watching them talk about random stuff and Violet laughing at everything was enough torture for me. I didn't even touch my food, who would think of food at this time. I was just staring at them quietly, I didn't even have any energy to throw glares anymore, I was exhausted. Jade took a part of her meat and she smiled out her heart, leading him on in all ways while I am here nursing my heart, I was at the verge of losing it and those two didn't even care. Jade was so comfortable, wasn't he scared of my presence, or he thinks I can't hurt him? I finally decided to eat them. When I tasted the grilled pork, it was heaven. Was this ordered? "I really enjoyed dinner, thank you, Violet." I heard Jade say and I spun my face around to look at them. He finally decided to take his leave, Humph "You're welcome Jade, I really enjoyed your company." She replied. He stood up and as usual helped her up, and they
"C'mon Violet, speak to me, say something! You ain't leaving me are you?" I shouted, banging the door one more time. "Stop it Barry, you're scaring me, please stop banging…" "Until you give me answers I won't." "What do you want to know, huh? Ask me!" She shouted across the room and I fell on the door, putting my anger on my lips. "Are you still giving me a second chance?" I asked frailly and she heard her sniffle. Is she crying? I'm so sorry Violet, I don't mean to yell at you, but you're the one pushing me. "Yes! I'm still giving you a second chance but if you continue like that, if you continue been violent I might not give you that anymore." She finally replied and that healed a little part of my heart. At least now I'm certain she's still mine. "The date, you should have told me before setting it, we are a couple and before any of us do anything we should inform the other." "Okay, fine. I'm sorry, I promise never to repeat." "And please don't bring Jade here again." I fi
BOND A SHOCK Violet's POV We get to the club, and it's more crowded that I thought it would be. Unconsciously, I hold Barry's hand, feeling a bit nervous. This is normal, I say to myself, trying to calm my nerves. Normal people go clubbing, it's no big deal. "Are you alright?" Barry asks me. "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I ask, smiling. "Well, your hands are sweaty, and you have a death grip on me." I quickly pull my hands away from his and pretend not to hear him over the loud music. "What did you say? I can't hear you" He repeats his question and I tell him I'm okay. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve for this night. I can't wait to see Barry's reaction. I look around, taking the scene in. The music is so loud, I can feel the groove in my chest. There are some people at the bar drinking, but majority are on the dance floor, gyrating and dancing to the music. I can't help but notice there are a lot of cute guys here, and most of them are ogling me already, their stares giving me
Stay off her, she's my wife" Barry spat with anger. I felt a conflict of emotions. Happiness that Barry actually loves me so much that he's jealous over me dancing with some other guy, and worry that he'll do something stupid "Alright man, take it easy." The guy says, raising his hands in surrender. "She didn't say she was married." He says and walks away. Barry looks at me, clearly very upset. I act like nothing happened and continue dancing. Another guy makes his way over to where I am, and before her gets too close, Barry is already in front of him, making him go away. I smile internally. That's it, mark your territory baby, I'm only yours I say to myself. The urge to go dance with Barry is so strong, but I hold myself back. His jealousy is so sexy, I'm having fun taunting him. The way he clenches his fists like he's going to punch someone, and gives them a hard look. I notice another guy looking at me, and I give him a sultry look. He takes that as a signal to come over. Just as
Chapter Barry's POV The ride home is filled with heavy silence, so heavy, like someone draped a big black cloak over us. I tried explaining to Violet back at the club, but she wouldn't listen. How could she even be upset with me? All I did was talk to a lady. She was the one grinding on guys and telling them she was single, yet I'm the bad guy? I don't understand what Violet wants from me. I'm trying so hard for our relationship to work, but it's beginning to feel like she's purposely trying to frustrate my effort. Does she not want the marriage anymore? Since the ride started, she's been looking out the window. The way she's seated, it feels like she'll rather be in a romantic relationship with the door of the car than with me. The windows are down, and the cool night breeze is blowing, but my chest still feels tight, making it hard to breathe properly. I take a deep breathe and push my luck. "Look, Violet-" "Barry, save it. I told you I don't want to hear anything you have to
Violet's POV As Barry holds me and tells me those words, I can't hold back the tears any longer. He loves me. He really loves me, and all this time I've been doubting him and causing him pain. I really didn't mean to hurt him, that wasn't my intention. I was just looking out for myself. As much as I want him, I didn't want a situation where things go south at the end of the day. I don't want to have to nurse a heavy heart. I don't know why I didn't just tell him how I felt sooner. We would have been able to avoid all this. I suddenly wish I could take back all I've done and the hurtful words I've said to him these past few days. I honestly didn't mean any of what I said. But seeing him with that lady tonight really upset me. The jealousy I felt, the rage, I couldn't control myself. Now I imagine how he must have felt seeing me dancing with all those guys and telling them I'm single. That was a very selfish thing to do. I feel so terrible and ashamed of myself. If I could turn back tim
ReconciliationViolet's POVI wake up to find myself in Barry's arms, I couldn't believe it at first, but last night's escapades replayed in my head making me giggle softly.It is quite a wonder that I played in my own game, quarrelled and later romanced. I never believed Barry to be so sweet and romantic. Sweet chillings! I've always known Barry to be caring and cute but not this romantic.Last night was wild, we couldn't get enough of each other, we were busy ravishing each other, he even ate my. ohhh butterflies…Can I ever get enough of you, Barry?That I'm not sure of, though I took the first kiss but did I know how sweet his lips were? Not until he took the second step that I know what love really portrays. ``kiss me again, Violet`` I can still hear his hush words, his soft breathing, his lovely eyes filled with all the emotions in the world - his soft hands that grazed my tender skin softly, trying not to break me, his tousled legs wrapped around mine sending chills into my sys
"Are you ready for the day?" Barry asks, and I am starting to miss him already. I sip my tea and reply him."Yea. Mum will be here in about a minute-" I have barely finish talking when the doorbell dings. "She's here!" I squeak, he wiggles his brows and I shuffle out of the seat and rush to open the door."Oh my sweet Violet, you're looking so bright this morning, trust you had a great night?" She says in one breath, and I am forced to look at Barry who pulls out an innocent shrug when he catches my glare."You know right mum," I blush, "please come in, we are just having breakfast." I tell her, and we walk to the table together.While on the table, Barry keeps staring at me, even when I catch him staring he won't look away, I am getting so nervous already and Mom is starting to notice it."Are you okay? You look shy." She says softly, and I look at Barry immediately, she follows my gaze and sees its Barry, only then does Barry look away. "Baby, are you sure you want to go home?" My m
SexivversaryWe rented a private beach house in the center of the sea, it's a warm and Earthly place and I feel that's what we both needed, somewhere cool and serene and as I smile at her beautiful face I am the happiest man in the universe."This place is so beautiful.." she cooes, slipping out of my grasp. I nod my head slightly and she slaps my shoulder, winking at me. And that's her, my Violet, troublesome and lively. "Last to get to the sea is a fish!!" She squeals and we start running. I would have surpace her but I let her win and she starts jumping around, splashing water on me."Fishie.." she says teasingly and I frown my face, walking towards her. "Call me that again and you're a dead meat!" I tell her but she's not scared, she splashes water on my face and starts laughing. I get annoyed and do the same but she's not stopping, we continue splashing water on each other, laughing heavily like little children just then my hand braces her lap and she stops. Time slows down and
She made a fuss about how I should have told her earlier that it was an easy thing and I shouldn't keep such things away from her next time. Of course, I was baffled, she's not someone who can help in such situation, but she gave me so many reasons to trust her. So I hired my friend to work as a secret investigator for me. Every weekend she will sit around the table and laugh over what's going to happen to that slutty CEO and here's what we did.Natasha rigged in her private affairs, and we discovered she's always been that way, sleeping with cute men before signing a deal with them, but we are going to put an end to that. Luckily for us, she always takes a picture while in the act with aim of blackmailing them if they refuse to get to her demands, see who's going to face sorrow, haha. My joy knew no bounds when Natasha showed me those pictures, she said she got them from her boyfriend who was a broker, great news right? Having Natasha around me was the best thing that happen to our
A dream of mineVioletI step into Rich living Education, and I am wowed. The building is so big and gigantic, the company is the talk of the town, and I am here to send in my resignation letter.Funny right?I have been working as an instructor in this huge organization, and it's been quite a chase. As a philosophy teacher it's really difficult to think about others aside from your job and students, what you want to talk about next, the trending news. I've been working in Rich Living Education for two years now, and I'm so proud. As the saying goes, you might not know what you have until you lose it. Well, it is happening now. I'm just coming 5o realize how beautiful this place is.Making the choice was a difficult one, family crises here and there, leaving Barry to go to California and here I am, happy. Fulfilled. If for anything then it's me making the best choice, I need to be something, I shouldn't just depend on my husband. I can still remember his face when I told him I was lea
I stand at the foot of Victor's grave and just stare wordlessly. I don't even know what to say. "If you were here, I know you would be so happy for me." I say, sitting down on the grass."I miss you so so much." I feel something on my chest, I check and then realize that it's my tears. I'm crying. Who wouldn't break down?"Thank you for bringing Barry into my life. A lot of times, he behaves like a replica of you. He loves me, cares for me, protects me just like you would. At it's you I have to thank for that." I sniff and wipe my tears with the back of my hand.Today is the date I lost my brother. I woke up feeling gloomy, and I just knew it was time. It's been so long I visited this place. I get home and see Barry on the floor, crying too. I quickly move to his side and see he has a picture of Victor clutched in his hand. His shoulder quakes as he cries like a baby. I go to his side to hold him, crying again too. I try to make out the words of what he's saying, but the sound incoh
University don't leaveBarry's POVSince after the party Violet threw for us, my parents have been bugging me to bring her over for dinner. It's been almost two weeks and I've been giving them different excuses. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want to take Violet to dinner with them, it's just, I don't think she's ready for all that. Meeting my whole family. I know it's going to be overwhelming for her. I haven't even told her yet, but it's looking like I'd have to tell her today or tomorrow. My mum called again this morning. She's beginning to feel like I'm avoiding her. It's not like Violet hasn't met my parents before, she has, on several occasions. But all those times, her parents have been there too. This time, it'll be just us. I know Violet well enough to know that her nervousness would be over the roof. I look at the work left I have on my table. I need to round up and head home soon. If I'm not home on time, Violet would get worried. I push the distracting thought
Barry's POV"Seriously Violet, you are always so full of antics." I tell her, and she just makes a silly face at me. It's Saturday today, and I just wanted to spend the whole day indoors with Violet, but she forced me to dress up, that we're going somewhere, but she has refused to tell me where. It's funny because I'm the one driving. She just keeps giving directions like a boss. The past few days she's been acting weird. Not in a bad way, I just feel like she's hiding something from me. Every time I look at her, she has this mischievous smile on her face. I wanted to ask her about it, but I decided to just let her do her thing. Violet is crazy, but it's what I love the most about her. I have a feeling that where we're going has to do with all that being coy lately. Maybe it's why I didn't make so much fuss when she started forcing me to dress up. I just really wonder where we're headed because she looks so hot too. When I saw her in her dress, I couldn't resist kissing her. She loo
Chapter 38Seeing Jade made me think about everything all over again, but this time, I'm no longer sad. Barry has forgiven me, and I've forgiven myself. We all make mistakes. What we should do is learn from them and move on. I've learned from my mistake, and I'm moving on. A small smile plays on my lips as I think about moving on. I'm reconciled with Barry. We'll no longer fight, and even if we do, it'll be because we're both imperfect human beings with differences. Not because we hate ourselves or are unsure of our feelings. As for Jade, I hope for his sake that he is able to move on and find love somewhere else. I almost thought he was going to cause me trouble, but all he said is that he'll always be there if I need him. His words touched me. Jade is a really nice boy. Whoever ends up with him will be so lucky.I step into the house and Barry is seated on the couch watching a movie. He looks up at me and flashes me a beautiful smile. My heart flutters in my chest. Will I ever get u
