Jocelyn’s POV

“Mummy, we are back,” Olivia's voice came from the sitting room as I stacked stick meats on a plate.

“Welcome, baby,” I said. “Where's your dad?”

Olivia and Eduardo had gone to the supermarket to pick up some groceries and wine.

Henry had opted out of the trip to watch cartoons and periodically come to the kitchen to help me run some errands.

“He's coming,” She replied. “Mummy, what are you making?”

“I'm making a special type of salad,” I divulged. “The one your dad likes.”

Being the weird person he was, Eduardo loved eating coleslaw salad with egg and peanut butter. Before I met him, I had never known such an absurd food combination to exist but after I did, I started to embrace his weirdness.

“Mummy, can I help?” She asked, to which I nodded.

“You can climb the stool and help me add chilli to the stew,” I said, moving out of the way, so she could climb the stool.

“Okay, mummy,” She said, as I handed her the pepper shaker and stood behind her to watch her work.

    Eduardo’s POV “Rafael, come to my office,” I said into the intercom before diverting my attention to the mountain of paperwork on my desk.I was going on a leave next week, so I had to take care of the high-priority businesses before I did.Although I trusted Rafael to run my company well in my absence, taking care of those stuff by myself was the only way I would be reassured.“You sent for me, sir,” Rafael said as he walked in.“Yes, I did,” I replied then motioned to the chairs in front of me. “Have your seat.”“I am going on a two weeks leave next week,” I began. “So I am going to entrust my company in your hands. Before the week runs out, remind me to forward the quarterly sales report to you, alright?”“Alright, sir.”“When is your leave again?” I asked.“In three months, sir,” He replied.“That's good,” I said. “You may leave, that's all I called you for.”With that, he exited my office while I returned my attention to the paperwork.It had been a week since I proposed to Joce

    Jocelyn’s POV “You look so fuckable right now, baby,” Eduardo said as I checked the tiny pimple of my forehead in the mirror.I was currently donning his hoodie with nothing but my panties underneath, as we had spent the whole of last night fucking like rabbits in heat.My back still ached blissfully which filled me with a sense of lustful nostalgia.“Well then come fuck me,” I said, staring at him through the mirror, my lips curved with a suggestive smirk.Eduardo was up and standing immediately in nothing but boxers. His sweat-glistened muscles were as sexy as ever, flexing as he walked up behind me and grabbed my waist, littering kissed down my nape.“I could live inside you forever,” He said, his hands weaving underneath my shirt to cup and fondle my boobs, turning the moaning switch within me on.Holding onto the edge of the dressing table for dear life, I tilted my neck sideways to give him full, unwavering access to the skin there as he moved fervently, eager to taste me.“W-W

Doing nothing but making love to my fiancée who I loved the most in the whole world was the best way to spend our vacation in my opinion.Jocelyn was the one who wanted to take a stroll because left to me, I didn't mind spending the entire day inside her.“We can move here if you want,” I said. “We will just find a way to move our kids and businesses over here.”Gazing into my eyes with her doe, brown eyes, Jocelyn giggled–a high,

How are you all doing?”“We are doing great,” Ivy replied then turned to the kids. “Am I right?”“Yes,” Henry and Olivia chorused. “That's great,” I replied. “I miss you all.”“We miss you too,” Ivy said. “I hope you are both having a nice time in Mauritius. Why am I even asking? You both look great which clearly means you are having a great time there.”Chuckling, Eduardo said. “We sure are.

It actually feels nice to be outside,” Eduardo said, as we walked down the street. “I'm always right,” I replied, flipping my hair in exaggeration which made him chuckle.“Yes, you are.” He cooed, pressing a kiss to my forehead.Just then, I caught a glimpse of a colorful gathering of people some feet away from us, and curiosity instantly seized me.“It seems there's an event going on there,” I told my fiancé.“Yeah, it does,” He replied. “Do you want to see what it is?”“Yes, please.” I said, darting him a smile which he mirrored before tucking a stray stand of my hair behind my ear.I didn't even need to bat my eyelashes and charm him into going with him.Truly, I had Eduardo wrapped around my pinkie finger.On getting to the colourful gathering, we found out that it was a carnival of some sorts. As the whole event looked interesting and glamorous, I talked Eduardo into us spending some time there before leaving for our place.Only the heavens knew w

    Eduardo’s POV I darted Jocelyn a smile as she stood beside me on the top of the private jet's staircase, looking at the view beneath us.After a five hour long flight, we were finally back from Mauritius to America.Rafael was in the hangar, waiting beside my Range rover, and on seeing Jocelyn and I, he began walking toward us.“Welcome home, sir and ma,” He greeted. “I hope you had a nice vacation.” “Yes, we did,” I replied. “Thank you, Rafael.”When he made to carry out bags, I shook my head in negation. “It's fine, Rafael. We can manage.”“Alright then, sir,” He said, handing me the car keys. “I have to go now. I'm meeting a friend nearby.”“We can give you a lift there,” Jocelyn offered.“No, thank you. I can manage,” He said. “Drive safely.”With that, he was gone.“Let's go?” I told Jocelyn who beamed, nodding.After putting out luggages in the trunk, I proceeded to open the front seat for Jocelyn to sit before walking over to the driver's space to take my seat.Thereafter, I

    Jocelyn’s POV “Have you found a place you like yet?” Eduardo asked, as I did my night time skincare routine.Patting the moisturizer into my face, I shook my head in negation.“Have you eventually decided on the country you want?” He prodded further, and I sighed, capping the moisturizer and putting it in my skincare bag, which I placed on the dresser.Climbing in bed with Eduardo, I said. “A part of me wants France but another wants Barbados, and there's this tiny, miniscule piece of my heart that wants Italy. I really can't make a decision.”“I guess we will have the wedding whenever you are ready then,” Eduardo said. “As for me, I'd rather we go to the courthouse and get married tomorrow without pomp and pageantry. But because I respect your decision, I will wait until you are ready for your dream wedding.”“Thank you, babe.” I said, pressing a kiss to his nose.Wrapping his arms around my waist, he replied. “You are welcome, baby.”Afterward, he clapped and the lights went off be

    Jocelyn’s POV I winced as the back of my head tightened with an excruciating ache, stifling the urge to groan in pain.“The sales memo and the quarterly report were thoroughly reviewed and evaluated by me yesterday, so everything should be perfect,” The team leader of sales department, Micheal Gould, said into the microphone, aggravating my migraine.“Okay, that's good.’ I forced myself to say, balling my hands into fists and placing it on my lap.I couldn't help but wonder why I had such a bad headache that afternoon, as the voices in the conference room blurred, and the sound of my heart thumping filled my ears.My mouth was hot, my lips numb, and my body warm as the ache intensified.I had woken up hale and hearty today, excited for the start of a new work week, and mine and Eduardo's impending dinner that was supposed to happen later today.But given how I seemed to have fallen ill all of a sudden, I knew the dinner would likely not happen anymore.The mere thought of it was beyo

    Eduardo’s POV “It's been less than a year since I left yet it feels like a decade has passed,” Jocelyn said, one hand out of the window and her eyes squeezed shut as the wind tousled her long, auburn hair.Even though she couldn't see it, I darted her a smirk before turning my attention to the road.We were currently in Australia for the week, as Henry and Olivia were currently on summer break.Jocelyn and I had decided to take them to Australia, mainly because we wanted to expose Olivia to the country and stuff.Due to the sick plan Nancy had pulled, she had been unable to spend time in Australia with her mother and sibling.Although that was in the past now, I couldn't help but feel vitriolic anger toward both Nancy and Sofia whenever I thought about it.But as Jocelyn had told me the other day, focusing on the bad things that happened in the past instead of being pleased and grateful with one's current situation, wasn't the right thing to do.I had Jocelyn and my wonderful childre

    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?

    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.

    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

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
