Jocelyn’s POV “I don't get why you're so worried about this, Amelia,” I huffed as Amelia and I entered my office. “It's just work. Nothing more.” “While I trust your judgment, I don't exactly trust that Eduardo Lopez. What if he tries to do something weird since you will both be alone?” Amelia countered, and I sighed, mulling over the possibility of that happening. Right now, Eduardo was the person I hated most in my life, and I would be the stupidest woman on earth to allow myself to get carried away by his suave charm. Like hell no, I didn't care about him in that way at all. I didn't spend my free time thinking about how larger his biceps had become or how sexy his undercut was. Hell to the fucking no. Get it together, Josie and stop thirsting over that man, I chided myself harshly. The reason why Amelia was so worried was because today was the day that Eduardo and I would decide on the official name and concept of our joint business venture, and Eduardo had offered
Jocelyn’s POV “You look absolutely ravishing, babes,” Nancy beamed as I trekked downstairs. “Damien will not be able to take his eyes off you throughout your date.” A dull yet wrenching feeling crept into my heart at her utterance but I pushed it down and returned her smile. “Really?” I asked, twirling around. “Yes, the teal really compliments your porcelain skin,” Nancy reassured. “And the diamond earrings were made for you and you only. I've never seen a more perfect hairdo than this french bun.” She gestured to my hair. “You're too kind with compliments.” I grinned, to which she chuckled. “I'm being tame with it, honestly,” She responded, holding my hands. “Babes, it's your first date in almost a decade and I wish you nothing but luck. Damien is nothing short of a nice guy unlike that jerk.” I swallowed harshly as the memory of the kiss that almost happened between Eduardo and I yesterday, strayed into mind, sending vibrating sensations down my crotch. As much as I
Jocelyn’s POV Exhaling heavily, I removed the last of the three grocery bags in my car trunk then stood with my hands akimbo, wondering how I was supposed to take them up to my condo.I had called Nancy for help as she was currently at my place babysitting Henry, but she wasn't picking up, so I had sent a text to her which was still left on delivered.“Where are you, Nan?” I mumbled to myself as I raked my fingers through my hair.“Hey, can I help?” The deep baritone of the bane of my existence wafted into my ears from behind, causing me to flap my eyes shut, as my temples pounded with a looming headache.Squeezing my eyes open, I threw him an expressionless look. “No, it's fine. I can manage.”Huffing, Eduardo walked up to me in a casual outfit, consisting of a pair of black sweatpants with a black tank top, leaving his big, toned muscles on shameless display.He had probably gone for a morning jog, my mind unhelpfully supplied, as I noticed his running shoes plus the way the tank t
Jocelyn's POV “Mummy, can I help?” Henry asked, as I swept the floor with a vacuum cleaner. “No, sweetheart. Thank you,” I darted him a smile before switching off the device and returning it to its designated spot, by the door.Today was Sunday–a free day for the both of us, and as usual, my plan was to spend some quality time with Henry.Afterward, I sat on the couch beside him to watch his favorite cartoon, Alvin and the chipmunks, with him. Just then a staggering headache gripped the back of my head, almost snapping it into half, and I winced, as I caressed the site of the ache, while inwardly willing it away.Fortunately, the pain dissipated in minutes and I was able to concentrate on watching the cartoon.“Mummy, can I ask you a question?” Henry suddenly averted his concentration on me, which startled me, but I nodded anyway.“Yes, baby. Ask away.”“Promise me you won't get mad,” He pouted. “It's about Mr Edardo.”At the mention of his name, my heart leapt with something inexp
Jocelyn's POV “How many babies do you want us to have?” Eduardo asked, as we strolled along a beach in Greece, hands intertwined.We were currently there on our honeymoon, and I was having the best time of my life, with the man who loved me more than anything in this world.“I don't know,” I shrugged. “But I want to have chunky and adorable babies.”“Oh, yeah?” Eduardo chuckled, and I beamed, nodding. “That's cute, me too. In all honesty, your choice is what matters since you're the one that'd be carrying the babies. And if you don't want kids too, that’s totally fine by me.”As I opened my mouth to respond, a ray of white light suddenly overshadowed us, and I woke up with a start in a hospital bed.Looking around, I saw Eduardo and Henry sitting on the couch beside my bed, which made me frown in confusion and disbelief.Was I still dreaming?Just then, Eduardo noticed me and his face relaxed in relief, as he stood up and walked over to me.“You're finally awake. How are you feeling
Jocelyn’s POV “How are you feeling now, babe?” Nancy asked, caressing my face, her expression sullen. “I feel good already and can't wait to be discharged,” I said, and she sighed. “I'm honestly fine, Nancy. You don't have to beat yourself up over nothing.”“This isn't nothing, Josie,” Nancy argued, shaking her head in negation. “What if that jerk wasn't around to help?”“But he was and nothing bad happened,” I countered softly. “It's all in the past now. Let's just focus on the positive side, alright?”Heaving a huge sigh, Nancy nodded. “Alright, Josie.”Just then, a knock came on the door followed by Henry's heartwarming giggles.“They are back from the canteen,” I uttered, as the door creaked open and Damien walked in, holding Henry 's hand.On seeing me, Henry's smile widened. “Mummy!”Making grabby hands at him, I smiled back. “Welcome back, my love. What did you eat?”“Mr Damien and I had rice with buffalo stew,” He explained, sitting on the empty part of my bed. “And it taste
Eduardo’s POVHeat stirred in my groins as Jocelyn whimpered into the kiss and flapped her eyes shut, melting into the thrilling bliss of our lips dancing the age-long dance of passion.Restraining myself from taking things a notch further, I withdrew from the kiss and gazed into her eyes, searching for a sign of anger.However, it had now been replaced with a fiery fire of lustful impatience as she stared back at me, eyes big and brown, and lips pink and moist.Before I could utter a word, Jocelyn drew me close and sealed her lips over mine, hands clinging onto my chest for dear life.The heat in my groins had now caused my cock to harden painfully in my pants, and I was immensely desperate for a gratifying release.At that moment, holding and kissing Jocelyn felt surreal, however the hardness in my pants said otherwise.“Fuck,” I muttered into the kiss as Jocelyn moaned.Pulling away from the kiss, I sealed my lips to the soft skin of her neck and littered passionate kisses down her
Jocelyn’s POV “You know I still can't believe you have a joint venture with Mr Lopez.” Amelia whispered to me, as Eduardo and his subordinates entered the conference room.“Come on, Amelia. It's been almost two months, you need to start believing it now.” “Okay, ma'am.”“Hello, Miss Roswell,” Eduardo flashed me a charming smile as we shook hands. “How are you doing today? I hope you are all better now.”“Yes, I am,” I nodded. “Thanks.”After a week of recuperating at home, I had finally resumed work. Eduardo and his team were currently at my company to discuss our upcoming product launch dinner.The moment I smelled his musky cologne, my mouth watered with unbelievable lust, as the memory of that fateful day wafted into my thoughts.Almost a week had passed yet I could barely get it out of my mind.It was probably because it had been a while since I last felt such addictive pleasure. Gosh, I could still remember how good his fingers felt inside me. How perfect his lips had been on
Jocelyn’s POV I inhaled shakily as I stroked my fingers across the framed picture of Henry and Olivia on the nightstand.In a few hours time, my babies would turn six and ten years from now on, they would be in high school.Another two years later, they would be in college and before I knew it, they would have their respective families.Of course I knew a day like that was still several years away, I couldn't help but feel a sort of bittersweet emotion at the mere thought.To think about six years ago, they and their brother in heaven, had been in my belly, wrapped around each other, small, tiny, pink, and completely helpless was so heartbreaking yet heartwarming.“Come on, Josie. We promised to focus on the positive part, didn't we?” I chided myself, using the back of my hand to wipe off my tears.Just then, the bathroom door creaked and Eduardo walked out.“Babe, what time are we picking up the cake? Ivy s-” He began to say but stopped when he sighted me.Sighing, he closed the di
Jocelyn’s POV “Ivy, you know I will never judge you, right?” I asked her.“Yes, I know. Where's this coming from?” She replied with a question of her own which made me huff.“Cut it out, Ivy. It's been three weeks since you told me about whatever happened between you and Brian at the wedding,” I said, and she sighed. “Ever since then, you have been seemingly avoiding coming over to our place. What is going on, Ivy?”There was silence for a couple of moments that I almost thought Ivy had hung up on him.As I removed my phone to check if the call was still ongoing, she sighed again. “I will tell you everything in due time, Josie. It's kinda a serious matter.”“Are you pregnant and he's refusing to accept it?” I blurted out the first question that came to mind.“No, of course not,” She replied, sounding amused. “We had sex that night.”“Oh,” I said, suddenly at a loss for words.I mean, it was very evident, given the sexual tension between them that something like that may or may not ha
Jocelyn’s POV “Is everyone ready?” I asked Amelia as I swiped my lipgloss across my lower lip.“Yes, ma'am,” She replied. “Alright then. Let's be on our way,” I replied, stowing the lipgloss away into my drawer. “This meeting has to end in thirty minutes. Forty five max.”“Oh, are you going somewhere, Miss?”“Yes. Today is Sports day at the kindergarten and my children will not forgive me if I fail to show up,” I divulged. “I already missed their final practice last week because I had to close the Braxton deal.”“Perhaps we should just postpone today's meeting then.” Amelia suggested, and I shook my head in negation.“No, we can't do that. I have been postponing this meeting for three months now,” I replied. “I want to get it done and over with. Plus work starts at the sight in about a week from now.”The meeting was to discuss my latest area of investment; the wine industry.I had taken an interest in the industry after I mistakenly made a bottle of grape wine. On the day, Henry a
Eduardo's POV “Thanks, Jocelyn,” Brian said as Jocelyn put a jug of tea in front of him. “You are welcome,” My wife replied. “Would you like anything with the tea? Some crackers or dates perhaps.”“No, it's fine. Thanks again.” He replied, before pouring himself a cup of tea.After spending two splendid weeks in Chile, Jocelyn and I were finally back to America.About a week ago, Brian also finalized his relocation to America.Today was saturday, which meant the three of us were free from work, so we had time to just lounge and talk about everything.Currently, we were sitting on the balcony and having tea and snacks.As Ivy was on duty at work today, she couldn't join us. But according to Jocelyn who she texted some hours ago, she would join us if she managed to get off work early.“So, how's America treating you, friend?” I asked Brian as he placed his cup on the table.“Surprisingly nice,” He replied. “I've managed to finalized a lot of deals in a week. Very profitable deals at t
Jocelyn's POV “As my lady pleases,” Eduardo said, before placing me on the floor. Arousal pooled within me, mixing up with my blood and flowing through my veins as Eduardo knelt in front of me, his arms hooked around my waist and his lips pressed to my navel. Instinctively wrapping my hands around his head, I threw my head back in pleasure even though Eduardo was yet to touch me. The pure, undiluted sensation of his skin on mine was enough to send me tipping over the edge. Repressing the urge to have a premature orgasm, I fluttered my eyes open and looked into his, melting at how sexy his lust-addled grey eyes looked. Pressing another kiss to my navel, Eduardo ran his hands from my ass cheeks to my back down and rested on my ass before he stood up, lifted me bridal style and pressed a kiss to my forehead. Thereafter, he placed me on the bed, intense arousal glinting across his grey eyes as he withdrew from the kiss to plant a kiss on my boobs. Looking into my eyes, he moved do
Eduardo’s POV “Are you really still not going to tell me where we are headed?” Jocelyn whined, as we headed into the hangar, where we were to board my private jet to our honeymoon location.Ivy and the kids had come to see us off minutes earlier and were probably on their way home now.“You really don't want this to be a surprise,” I huffed. “Guess where we are going.”“France?” She said, tone set between a question and an utterance.“You suck at playing the guess game,” I teased her, and she hit my bicep. “Okay, I'm sorry.”“Tell me already, Ed.” Jocelyn whined again, and I sighed.“We are going to Chile.” I replied, to which she gasped, hands clasped over her mouth.“You are joking.” She whispered, and my heart cut as I couldn't make out her expression at that moment.Fuck, what if I had chosen the wrong place?I had opted for Chile because some time ago, Jocelyn told me that she'd like to go on a vacation there one day, and since we had gone to all her dream countries, I had picke
Jocelyn’s POV “Bye, Jocelyn. Bye, Eduardo,” Ivy waved as my husband and I entered the car. “We will see you soon.”“Alright, thanks. Don't forget to call us right away if the kids are too much to handle.” I said, to which she scoffed.“Come on, Josie. I can look after my babies very well, so don't think about anything and just focus on having fun.” She said, winking, which made me blush.“Bye, Ivy.” Eduardo said, cinching his seatbelt. “We will be sure to take your word and have a lot of fun.”Thereafter, he drove off and I watched Ivy wave after our moving car, through the sideview mirror.“My beautiful wife,” Eduardo said, taking his eyes off the road to look at me and take my hand in his free one. “I still can't believe that you are mine even though we exchanged rings a couple of hours ago.”“Are you drunk?” I asked.“Do I look drink?”“No,” I replied. “You are just cheesier than usual.” I teased him, and he chuckled before pressing a kiss to the back of my hand.“But honestly spe
Jocelyn’s POV “You look pretty, mummy,” Henry said, as he and his sister observed me from where they were sitting as the makeup artist worked on my face.“Is that so, baby?” I asked, to which he nodded.“Thank you.” I said, darting him a smile which he returned.“Mummy, can I also get makeup like you?” Olivia asked, as the makeup artist put finishing touches to my lips.“You can only get lipgloss, baby,” I replied. “You don't need make-up because you are so pretty already.”“You are pretty too, mummy, but why are you using makeup then?” She frowned, which made me smile.“Because today is mine and your dad's wedding.”Today, I would become Eduardo's wife again and he, my husband.For some understandable reasons, a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts were currently swirling in my mind, however, I decided to focus on the positive part of them, just like Ivy had advised.I had woken up that day feeling very excited to walk down the aisle and get hitched but as soon as the stylist walked i
Eduardo’s POV Exhaling sharply, I regarded my reflection in the mirror, a small smile curving my lips as the thought of what today was struck me for the umpteenth time.I was finally getting married to the love of my life, Jocelyn, today, and I couldn't be happier.Damn, I couldn't wait to see her and profess my love for her in front of our loved ones, under the bright sky of Italy.As the pleasant thoughts swirled in my mind, a knock came on the door.“Yes, come in.” I said, averting my focus from the mirror to the entrance.The door creaked open and Ivy walked in with Henry and Olivia. A grin latched onto my lips as I crouched and opened my arms wide for a hug with them.“My babies,” I said, as they ran into my arms, hearty, childlike giggles emanating from them.“Hi, daddy.” They said in unison, as we disengaged from the hug.“How are you, my prince and princess?” I asked, to which they nodded, their smiles not disappearing for a while.“Daddy, you look hamsome today,” Olivia sai
