EMILY’S POVLiam might have called it a masquerade party but the truth is, I didn't actually put my hopes up. Maybe it was because I actually believed nothing could come out of this.However, the moment we walked inside, my jaw dropped when I saw the interior design of the hall. Different artworks were actually painted in another part of the hall while a stunning chandelier hung on the ceiling with different spectra of light coming dispersed out of it A gush of confusion flooded my veins when my eyes took in everyone's dress. It felt as if we were all thrown back to the season of Halloween. “Can I?” Liam asked with his arm curved up. His gaze brought me back to earth and I hooked my palm around his arms.Everything seems to stop when we walk in as if I am the only pretty girl in here. We were even putting on masks and I could barely recognise anyone through the mask if not because they spoke.Was it actually true that it's where a gentleman will probably propose to his wife? I can't
I knew that name because it was on the list of the shareholder's father.Liam's father was the second on the list, while a foreign name occupied the third one, and Andrew Jones was the fourth person.Rumour has it that he is from Texas, but who knew he already came down here to Los Angeles?”Why are you asking about Liam when you knew who it was.”You seemed to be in love with him which is not something I am concerned about. I need a favour from you," Andrew said, and I wondered what it was.”Which is?" I asked.”Will let you know when I am done with you?" He said and pushed his length all the way in.With each thrust, I moaned loudly. He was attached to playing with me at first but now he is devouring me whole like a beast.I rest my hand on his shoulder, giving him more access to devour me. ”I am cumming" I said, my eyes half open. I salivated and my body shook when my body finally found the release. I moaned loudly, but he didn't stop.Andrew fucked me through my orgasm and I foun
EMILY'S POV “I'm done with you, Emily. I never knew you could stoop so low. Bringing a bastard child into my home to claim it's mine?" I felt air suck out of my lungs when my husband, Liam, uttered those words with rage in his eyes. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I held on to the front of my dress. My baby bump couldn't let me stand well but what broke me more was the look Liam gave me. It was filled with disgust and hatred, which made me doubt whatever I was going to say was going to change a thing. "Liam, please, this is our child..." I began but my voice faltered when a slap suddenly landed on my cheek. My gaze became blurry as more tears threatened to escape my eyes. It stung but the person who slapped me was none other than my fake sister. She was the princess while I was nothing but her shadow. “How could you lie to my face?" My sister yelled in front of me with pure hatred in his eyes. She cleaned her hand with a handkerchief as if I were a rag before stomping the handker
EMILY'S POV My heart kept pounding hard as I made my way to the car while Liam's bodyguard got into the driver's seat. “Take me back to the penthouse," I said with bloodshot eyes as soon as I locked the car door. I took a long deep breath, trying to tame the anger that threatened to burst any second. There were three knocks on the car window before I finally heard Liam's voice. “Emily, tell me what is wrong," Liam asked, but I didn't bother to look at him. I was pissed to see him with my sister again after everything he has done. I don't even know how my sister got to know I was in the hospital. I want to leave this place right now. “Won't you get this car out of here right now?" I said to the bodyguard with my voice octave at peak. He stepped on the pedal and drove out of the parking lot at the speed of light. I watched Liam stand in the parking lot through the mirror, but I didn't bother to have any ounce of regret for him. I remember sharing the good news with him in my pas
EMILY'S POVMaybe I heard wrong because Liam suddenly stepped back only to sit on our matrimonial bed. He crossed his long legs over another and undid the tie around his neck.“What do you mean Liam? Why a month?" I asked with uncertainty. The chandelier cast its soft glow on Liam, and he appeared even more attractive.“Just like you said" Liam began and undid the next two buttons of his shirt. His taut muscles caught my eyes and butterflies seemed to flap their wings in my stomach.This was one of the reasons women wished to bow their feet at Liam's feet. He is just too perfect and too handsome and I wasn't an exception to not get affected by his charm.Liam's next words seemed to bring me out of my world, and I shot a glare at him.“We were both forced into this marriage, Emily, and I won't stop you from leaving." Liam declared with confidence.Good. Liam wasn't going to deny the claim about my sister which is fine. I was right all along.“Then why after a month?" I asked without a
LIAM'S POVI rested my back against the Porsche while I occasionally glanced through my wristwatch. It's already past 6 P.M. but Emily hasn't come out since I stood outside. It's unlike Emily to get this late at dressing up because she has always been quick.Everything about Emily today has been full of surprises and it makes me wonder if she somehow hit her head against the hard floor during the car accident.I wasn't even sure if this was Emily's way of paying me back after the fruitless marriage of two years we both had or because of the loveless marriage.She even accused me of cheating with her sister which was something I couldn't deny because Aysel has been trying everything possible to make me send me green signals.I will do anything for Emily but not divorce. Divorce is never an option and not having sex with Emily...No, I won't call it sex. Making love to Emily is something I will never get tired of. Sex with Emily has always been amazing and it took me a great effort not
EMILY'S POV The time seemed to stop the moment Liam crashed his lips over mine. Maybe I was hallucinating but I wasn't sure either if this was an illusion. Though it felt so real. His mint smell enveloped me, throwing me into a whirlwind of emotions while my heart pounded loudly against my ribcage. Goosebumps spread across my exposed skin, and I shivered against his tall frame. His free hand rested on my waist and I felt so small, so powerless and fragile against Liam's chest. Liam would never kiss me. He never did except when we were having sex, but what changed? I shook the stupid thought that filled my head, almost making my head fuzzy away. I pressed my hand on his chest, trying to push him away but Liam didn't bulge. Who am I kidding? Liam has spent most of his leisure time in the gym. There was nothing he was not good at, even the kissing part. My hormones took charge, and I moaned into the kiss like molten magma. The sound that escaped my lips scared me because Liam sudd
EMILY'S POVLiam walked away, leaving me and his father outside. I didn't try to stop him because I knew Liam and his father were like a cat and rat. They aren't on good terms and sometimes, I do blame myself and think maybe it was because his father forced us to be together.I was still angry that Liam kissed me right in front of everyone. I know this was part of the rules in the contract I signed in my past life.We are supposed to act like a real couple whenever we are outside but the moment we stepped into the car or got home, everything changed. I wouldn't hesitate to trample on Liam today, humiliating him was part of my plan of coming here.“Liam is still as cold as ever but I am glad he is warm to you. He can be difficult sometimes, but try to understand him," Liam's father assured me in a warm tone. I wished I could tell him things weren't like what he thought because Liam was in love with my sister, not me. “Thank you, Father. I know you will become close friends at some po

Vincent agreed to come and pick me up in the evening after we ended the call. I called Chelsea to take Xavier away to her House because I will be busy which is a lie. I returned the phone to the lady at the receptionist and walked back to my office room. I received a message from Liam to come into his office room. I walked into Liam's office, wondering what he wanted me to do. He was sitting behind his desk, a stack of documents in front of him. "Emily, I need you to pick up some documents for me," he said, not looking up. I nodded and walked over to the filing cabinet. I asked for the particular one he wanted, and he mentioned it, which I helped him to find. As I handed him the documents, he looked up at me and smiled. "Thanks, Emily. By the way, I have a surprise for you." I raised an eyebrow, wondering what it could be. "What is it?" I asked, my heartbeat pulsating with the continuous flow of blood. "We have a place to attend tomorrow evening," he said, his eyes sparkling wi
Avery used every ounce of her strength to run into the woods. She has been running for some minutes, not taking a break for once.She didn't offend anyone, so who could want her dead? She didn't stop running as she occasionally glanced at the screen of her cellphone. Just when she looked back, the three men were already close to her. Judging by the way they dressed, she figured out they were probably a thug or something."What do you want?" Avery asked them, and her chest rose and fell simultaneously. Her hands kept shaking and her leg wobbled slightly but she steeled herself.She had to stop running, knowing fully well that they would soon get close to her. "Tell me, who sent you?" Avery asked with so much bravery but inside, she was weeping silently and praying for a breakthrough. Her heels hurt her feet but she was all alone in the wood. She dialed Sebastian's number and waited for him to pick it up but the men were already closer to her. "Look, she is trying to call someone!"
Sebastian cradled Avery in his arms as he headed towards the back door of the mansion. The lights were already on, which made it easier for Sebastian to walk freely into the spacious sitting room. He walked into his room, shutting the door.Sebastian carried Avery into his bedroom in a bridal style and gently laid her on the bed. Sebastian walked into the bathroom and quickly prepared a hot bath.His blood was still boiling in rage. He didn't want to lose Avery the same way he lost Celine.Sebastian came back into the room and took Avery inside the bathroom.Sebastian placed Avery into the warm water, and her eyelids fluttered open. She shivered in the water as her lashes began to shake.A sign that she was not fully awake. Sebastian took in a deep breath as he watched Avery's face."I...I'm...." She shuttered, not knowing where she was."You are safe. I will take care of you now" Sebastian petted her but Avery's heartbeat began to accelerate in her chest.Sebastian heard every beat
Avery left the room after applying make up on her neck to hide the hickeys. She stepped into the photoshoot room fidgeting.She was embarrassed and shy when she saw few men in the room, decorating the photoshoot room with the necessary equipments."You can get into the bath tub now," The photographer instructed Avery and she complied nodding in affirmation. She sank into the bath, allowing the warmth to seep into her pores. The coldness of the water cradled her, soothing her muscle and calming her nerves. "Please relax and gently rub the foam around your shoulders"Avery complied and shots were taken. After trying different posture and styles, she was asked to stand up holding the soap in her hand. The background music song was played."I think we are done here" The photographer said and the prop applauded Avery.Calhoun walked in just in time to see Avery only in a bikini that exposed her hourglass curves and plump round boobs(note breast, is a turn-off for me)He clenched his han
I sat back down at my desk, trying to shake off the feeling of unease that had settled in my stomach after my encounter with Liam. I pulled out my phone and opened up Instagram, scrolling through my feed to distract myself.Perhaps he was trying to get on my nerves by acting like he cared. I don't know what the workers were busy talking about now but I doubted it could be something else apart from me.As I scrolled my Instagram page, I noticed a message in my inbox from an unknown account. Though my fans message me to praise me about my books and all. Maybe this was also one of them.I raised an eyebrow, wondering who could have messaged me at this time. I opened up the message, and my heart skipped a beat as I read the words on the screen."Hi Emily, I've been watching you. You're a beautiful writer, and I love your work. Would you love to be my girlfriend? I love the outfit you wore today" I felt a shiver run down my spine as I read the message, my hands trembling and I had to put
The phone rang, shrill and insistent, and I picked it up, my heart sinking as I heard Aysel's voice on the other end."Emily, I need to see you," she said, her tone curt and commanding. "Meet me at Father's company in an hour."I hesitated, feeling a surge of anxiety at the prospect of facing Aysel again. But something about her tone made me feel like I had no choice."Fine," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "I'll be there."As I hung up the phone, I felt a knot of tension form in my stomach. What did Aysel want to talk about? And why did she sound so angry?I arrived at the company an hour later, my heart racing with anticipation. Aysel was already there, pacing back and forth in front of the reception desk."Emily, thank you for coming," she said, her eyes flashing with anger. "I think it's time we settled this once and for all.""Settled what?" I asked, feeling a surge of defensiveness."Don't play dumb, Emily," Aysel sneered. "You know exactly what I'm talking about. The co
