I sat nervously on the couch in the sitting room while watching my favorite movie series. Though, at a glance, it looked as if I was concentrating on the movie, the truth is I was nervous, and I couldn't stop thinking about how tonight was going to be.

Liam didn't promise to come home straight and we aren't even chatting. I looked at my phone, checking for his message but what was I thinking? He wouldn't even text or call me and I doubt whatever plan Chelsea has taught me is going to work.

“Wear that sexy night dress and wait for him in the sitting room. I am sure he wouldn't be able to push you away if he saw you." Chelsea's name replayed in my mind.

One thing I didn't tell Chelsea is that Liam is interested in my body but not in my heart. I want him to fall for me, not to lust after me, but Chelsea already assured me to remain calm.

The car honked loudly outside, which made me spring out of the couch. I tiptoed to the giant window and pulled the curtains aside slightly.

    “Tell me, Emily. What games are you playing?” Liam's voice dripped with sexiness while his large, calloused hand traveled down my thigh. I knew what he wanted, and a sense of pride filled me, knowing that Liam wanted me, but too bad this was only going to be a game.Involuntarily, I moved Liam's hand away from my neck and escaped from his trap but I don't think the devil is ready to let me go right because his forehead formed deep creases when I turned to look at him.“You must have a tired day, Mr. Nolan. I would like to retire to my room," I said with a look of tiredness.Liam's gaze traveled down my body as he ruffled his hair with his hand. I took a few steps back momentarily but the devil took two steps towards me.The atmosphere grew tense and the only sound that filled my ears was my rapid breathing.“Come here," Liam rasped in a low voice. Seeing the look in Liam's eyes, I made my way to the staircase, but that was the only fucking mistake I shouldn't have made.I felt the d

    My knees wobble as I lean towards the staircase railing. My breathing still came out uneven and a lone tear escaped the corner of my eyes.“Oh, good Lord," I whisper with a shaky breath. I wiped the tears off my face with the back of my hand before making my way inside my room. I locked the door with a click and switched on the light in the room. My phone vibrated on the bed, prompting me to check who just messaged me.A smile spread across my lips when I found out it was Chelsea and not only that, Aysel also messaged me.Sitting on the bed, ignoring the wetness in between my legs and the aching need, I clicked on Chelsea's message first.“Tell me, did it work?" Chelsea asked with a crying emoji.Out of frustration, my fingers worked fast on the keypad of my phone.“It fucking worked, you bitch, and now I'm going to sleep with an aching body," I replied before letting out a sigh.Chelsea's reply came almost immediately. “Go girl. Let's hope you turn the tables around. I will be waiti

    A bitter smile graced my lips as I walked forward to take a closer look at Liam's trousers. Aysel resumed what she was doing while mocking me with her eyes. I took a deep breath in before parting my lips.“It's fine. I actually came here because I was getting some things around here. I will let you be," I said with a faint smile. I turned my back towards them and made my way to the door.“Emily wait," Liam called in a cold and stern voice but I didn't turn back. This is definitely what I want. Aysel has promised to get Liam to his side and I'm glad he is taking my warning seriously but I haven't caught them yet. It was only my assumption.“Let me go after her," I heard Aysel say before I walked out of the room in my high heels.The door was pulled open and then shut. Aysel's footsteps echoed behind me as she walked briskly towards me. She stayed in my line of steps and walked to my front, blocking my view.“What are you doing?" I demanded in a cold tone while looking at Aysel.The

    The butler ushered me the moment I got to the doorstep. After leaving Liam's company, I stopped at a restaurant before driving to Father's place.I wasn't surprised when I saw Aysel’s car in the parking lot. She must have run here after I already destroyed her phone. Now that the video will be nowhere to be found, I can't help but sigh in relief. The people I called my family were already sitting in the sitting room and I believe they were probably waiting for me because of the heavy atmosphere in the room. I took off my heels and wore the slippers before making my way to them.“Good evening, Father. Mother," I said with a bow while waiting for his reply.“Emily, how was..."Slap!The sound echoed in the room as I lifted my hand to rub my cheek. I was expecting mother to slap me but I didn't know it would be this fast. Maybe I underestimated her.“How could you, Emily? Why would you slap Aysel and also hurt her hand in the process?" Laura yelled and raised her hand again but this tim

    “You knew you caused all this ruckus, Emily. Tell me. What has gotten into you?" Laura asked, seething with anger.Her hand held the fork in a spoon in a tight grip as if she was going to bend it before throwing it at my face.I swallowed the lump at the back of my throat, knowing fully well that I would never give Laura the satisfaction of seeing me weak again.Without replying her, I picked up my phone from the table, including the small purse containing my small makeup.“I will transfer the money for a new phone to Aysel after leaving this place. It will be through bank transfer," I said and I rose from the chair.I heard Aysel scoff before focusing her attention back on me.“And you expect me to believe that? You this fool," Aysel barked at me like a feral dog ready to take a bite.”I told you I would pay for the damages, just like Father said. I don't have any reason to lie," I replied hastily, but before I could turn to leave.Aysel gripped my arm into a tight grip. She was alre

    “Get in the car, Emily."I am glad Liam didn't reply but a part of me yearns for his sweet words. Maybe he was going to tell me we can start leaving like a normal couple but that is just my wishful thinking.Liam Nolan will never do anything like that. He is never the type of man to go back on his words but he did it once.When he found out about my pregnancy in the past, he told me he would take care of me till I delivered but all those promises turned out to be fake when he suddenly changed towards me.I got inside the car and sat beside Liam in the front seat. He didn't add anything more but his jaw clenched hard.My body jerked to the front when Liam suddenly started the car and was already driving out.“Are you okay?" He asked in a high-pitched voice, filled with concern and care. I almost fall again for his cool voice.

    “Kiss me, Emily and you will have the key," Liam said with a smug smile.I knew it was just a simple word, but it made my heart beat rhythmically against my chest. Just a kiss but I don't think Liam deserves it.He towed my car away only for me to see it at the garage. Liam must have followed me and he already knew I was angry.Normally, Liam knows I want the keys right now. Maybe he already guessed I needed the piano for something important.“What games are you playing again? You agreed to give me the key." I said in a calm tone.Liam shook his head blatantly while he raised his finger in motion for me to stop.”I didn't agree but I told you to follow me," Liam replied me in his calm, deep voice and fuck, he was right.“I only need the key. We are already divorced, and I am still here because of your father. You don't have to keep passing your boundary." I explained with my eyebrows furrowed.My hands are no longer on my hips, but now I clasp my palms together while I look at Liam wit

    I actually thought Liam wouldn't follow me, but the devil was even the one who showed me where the room was. I stepped in without sparing Liam a glance as I walked towards the piano bench in the semi-dark room.The large curtains were drawn a little bit back which made me wonder if Liam came to this room in the past.Liam switched on the light while I sat quietly on the comfy chair in front of the piano. The white light illuminated the room, and I wish I could relish in the beauty of the room, but I know why I came here.I looked behind me to see Liam already leaving the room but I was wrong because he suddenly shut the door.With a sigh, I said, “Are you not going to leave? Aysel is waiting for you." “That is jealous Emily speaking. I owned the house, remember?" Liam responded in a playful tone. He walked towards the couch pushed to one corner of the room and sat down.For real, he is in a good mood, unlike any other day. “You can just give me some privacy," I managed to say before

    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.

    However, the anger she had been trying hard to maintain and curbed suddenly threatened to surface when Avery saw the two people walking her way. Avery didn't bother to get into the elevator when she saw him walking forward with the corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk."Avery," Jessica called, her voice at the peak as she walked towards Avery with Logan trailing behind her.Avery returned the smile faintly while Jessica stood in front of her, her eyes scrutinizing Avery. Jessica stared at Avery from head to toe, and she noticed Avery had somehow changed her style of dressing. "She even appeared to be more beautiful today," Jessica thought, turning to hold Logan's arms while Avery just looked at them."Logan, I forgot to tell you. Avery will be getting married soon," Jessica announced with a pretentious smile on her face, which Avery didn't fail to notice.Logan was shocked to hear this, but he didn't show it. His eyes gaze around Avery's body in lust, but he has a more press

    If Avery thought this guy was a devil before, now she is going to claim that he is a sly fox. Sebastian's voice now sounded more aloof and distant.'How could he bring me to his father's house without telling me?' Avery screamed in her mind. Her hazel eyes throw daggers at Sebastian."My name is Avery, father. Nice to meet you, sir," Avery said politely. Her voice calm and soothing.Looking at Sebastian's father, she could see the resemblance, and the man seemed to be in his forties.So young and handsome."My name is Donovan. So you are the one who stole My son's heart?" Donovan, Sebastian's father said in sarcasm as he flashed a beautiful smile at Avery.Donovan was a charmer when his charming smile graced his face showing those dimples. Avery wondered if Sebastian has dimples too but the devil hasn't smiled before. Avery threw Sebastian a hard glare because he hadn't informed her about how to make up the story about how they met. How could he do that without informing her? But sh

    After trying different types of dresses, including gowns and some skirts and blouses, Avery finally came out of the dressing room again in a stunning cream dress that reached her knees. The gown is an off shoulder dress that accentuates her feminine curve. Her hips came out more prominently, and her full breasts clung to her chest like her other half.Her long and beautiful neck was exposed to the view, but thanks to her long hair, it covered the side of her neck.The dress showed off her shoulders, and some part of her bosom was displayed to the eyes as a feast.A beauty to behold."This is the perfect dress!" Hazel was in astonishment as she walked to where Avery was standing. She pulled Avery toward the mirror."You should go with this," Hazel whispers, her eyes beaming with happiness. When Avery lifts her gaze to the mirror, she doesn't know what to say about this. The dress is indeed beautiful, but it's too open, and she doesn't like clothes like this."Thank you," Avery replie
