CATHERINE ... With the responsibility to take over Dad's position, I turned busier than ever. Just a day and I am feeling I just walked out of the tornado. My writing career would be slowed down certainly, or perhaps the pressure of the position might force me to stop writing at some point, but I did not want to let down my father. He trusted me with a responsibility. Although I could deny it at once, I couldn't ruin his expectation. I formed a relationship with him so much later and I want him to ease down from his busy life and tensions. If that cost me my little dream which was a part of my life, I am willing to do it. However, nothing could reduce the point that I am frightened to represent Dad. What if I mess it all up? I thought I was confident enough but the moment I entered Dad's office and faced the board members in the room, I realised that I was all delusional about my confidence. Tired, I went to see my daughter who had fallen asleep in her father's arms made me reali
CATHERINE ... Inhaling a deep breath I watched my reflection through the mirror. Today is the family dinner with Reinfords and I am nervous. Grandpa used to hold a family dinner every week. However, since he passed away, I was gone from the family. Everything changed and I have heard that no family dinner was held for the last five years. Everything had changed now. Past relationships formed newly and some hidden truths came out. I am afraid to lose my patience seeing Danielle and her sister. Although I promised myself to not react for the sake of my husband, I was frightened that she would break my tolerance limit. And knowing her, she was an expert in causing drama too well. Hopefully, everything goes well tonight... I muttered in my head and twirled around, checking myself again and again. I don't know what exactly I was checking though. Perhaps, my nervous mind was trying to calm down itself. "I won't let you get hurt, not again." Edward's magnificent tone startled me. My eyes
CATHERINE ... Seeing Jayden beside May was the last thing I expected... May went to him and held his hand, "Guys, this is Jayden... The love of my life. And Jayden, this is my family." She introduced us. He greeted her parents first and then turned to us. Edward and he already met in Italy. Finally, it was me. He gave me his charming smile, "we met again as promised." All eyes turned to me with a questioning gaze and I could see suspicion in Danielle's eyes. Although it was awkward, specially the way he said it and not to forget our last meeting in the lingerie store. I gave a slight nod, "Yes indeed." It's good to play cook when I wasn't on the wrong side. "Wait, you guys know each other?" May asked, eyes turning to us back and forth. "Ah yes, we do. Your sister-in-law happened to be my college mate, isn't it, Mrs Reinford?" Jayden asked. "yes, he is right." I agreed and Edward seemed to remember it too. Jayden bent down to Della and gave her a box of chocolate. "Hey, little P
EDWARD ... The dinner went surprisingly well without any drama. I did not expect Mom to join us though. She was silent and more focused on her to be son-in-law. I am glad she chose to behave sober in front of a new member of the family... The ending was unexpected but brought immense joy to all, hearing the news of Catherine's pregnancy. Even mom was happy, although I did not know whether she acted to smile or not. She adored me but did not reciprocate her feelings with Catherine. Catherine did not mind her either. And I couldn't blame her. In fact, I praise her strong and kind heart th even knowing mom was a part of hurting her mother, she was able to hold herself till now. However, I found her absentminded time to time, but she managed it well. Not sure if it was because of Mom or something else troubled her though. I noted in my head to find out once we returned home. The night hits and soon, Jayden says his goodbye. We also realised it was time to return though Dad asked us to
EDWARD ... Since childhood, I have been taught to take over the family business as the only heir of the Reinford family. I was expected to grow as the head of the family to take over duties and guide them. However, no one ever taught me how to deal with uncertain emotions after learning that the people you loved the most caused hurt to others... Others who meant a great deal to you. I wasn't taught to be discreet about those emotions but always had to close myself off and that's the main reason I had never learned about love until I met Catherine. In our first two years of marriage, I was always cold and distant to her... To those emotions which grew within in an indiscreet manner. I feared that unusuality and thought something might be wrong with me. Why would I always think of that woman? Why always she would be in my senses? Why always do her smile and those Cerulean eyes precisely send shivers to my heart? Why do always I want to hold her close after making great love to her? Wa
EDWARD ... Life takes drastic turns once or twice in general. But for me, it became a never ending saga. I don't know how to react to the fact that my mother whom I thought was a mother, was never my mother! She took my real mother's place by killing my own mother just because she did not want to get involved in her vicious plan. "Don't worry, Steven. Everything will be fine." I heard Commissioner McColin's words to my father. "I don't know anymore, Rodger." Dad sighed sadly, as May caressed his arms. "My Danielle..." He couldn't help his tears. "I... I could not believe I lost her years ago, living with an imposter and never learned it. I failed her..." I swallowed the heavy lump in my throat. Everything just turned into a crazy mess. Commissioner McColin came to my side, "She will be in the hospital arrest until she recovers and then take her to custody." "Hmm..." "About your aunt, she has already been arrested from her home. Already started a searching operation for Carlos Ba
CATHERINE ... "Where is Della?" May asked slowly as I held the spoonful of soup to her mouth. "She is safe and fine. Don't worry about her and take this." I assured her. "You did not eat anything since last night." May sighed slowly before parting her lips and drinking soup. She holds my hand. Her lips wobbled and she cried again. "M-om..." She choked on her breath. Keeping the tray aside I hugged her and let her cry. Her wound was scarier than mine. Yes, I did lose my mother but at least I have got to know her. However, this poor girl suddenly found out that all her belief was a lie. I watched my husband from the other side. It's the same for him. And Steven, Poor man. He kept Sighing day and night and blamed himself for not recognizing his wife. That woman not only deceived them but broke their self-esteem and faith. "Catherine?" May called. "Yes?" "I want to see Della. Perhaps spending time with her would help me." She requested and I caressed her head. "Hmm, I will send
CATHERINE ... I entered our room in Greenhill Mansion. For the last three days, we have been staying here with Steven and May. Jayden too comes in the evening and spends a few hours before leaving. Last three days, I did not feel any discomfort from him. It seemed he was concentrating on his girlfriend more which made me happy. Could it be I was wrong about him and was trying to solve a puzzle that only existed in my head? I discussed his behaviour with Liam who kept his eyes on him always and returned with no flaws. Perhaps, we were wrong and it couldn't make me happier. Edward was trying his best to not break in front of his family. Although at night he cried in my arms which made me feel both sad and happy. At least, I was successful in giving him security to reveal his true self to me. Steven was still in regret and Dad was trying his best to become a friend in his grieving times. Some things only Could be shared with friends who had the same level of sorrow more or less. Sig
EDWARD ... "Uhmm-mmhm." Moaning, she arched her back to me, trying to be touched by me more. But, I was not giving her what she wanted. When it comes to playing like this, I love doing this to her. She looks so beautiful and erotic in her every action. Kissing, sucking, and marking every inch of her neck and collarbone, I finally went down to her amazing handful of breasts. I held one in hand and took one in my mouth. Catherine's eyes closed shut in pleasure. I licked the brown bud and then took it in my mouth, sucking it as if it would milk out. While grabbing the other one tightly, I left my handprint there. With a pop, I let go of the nipple and then took the other one in my mouth. Giving the same attention to both of them I finally let go. Looking down at them I drooled. Her round tits were glistening with my saliva and covered with my mark. Still looking at them I suddenly landed a slap on her pussy. This was another thing I loved doing to her. She turned so erotically vulner
CATHERINE ... The entire month passed by after the weekend and my husband even arranged a honeymoon after we returned. It was an amazing moment in my life. He took me to Maldives Though I couldn't do any sightseeing because as per my husband, 'Who goes out on honeymoon?' So, yeah... Practically we were mostly tangled with each other the entire week. Surely, I would have been impregnated if he didn't choose to vasectomy. I am glad he did it. Call me selfish, but giving birth is painful as fuck. It comes with a cost and I wouldn't like that feeling again. Anyway, back to the present... Currently, I am in the library, reading a book. Both our children were asleep and my husband was in the study. I was waiting for him. I yawned and again concentrated on the book. Or, at least, tried. My eyelids were heavy and sleep almost consumed me. However, suddenly I jerked out from the drowsiness. Confused, I looked around to find out the reason. It felt like I woke up to a loud shriek. "What t
CATHERINE ... I always wondered how life really works. Standing there, I saw the newly wedded happy couple or the couple that were fighting with a romantic tension going on within, which eventually took them to bed... How these pairs were made? And how they ended up together after such drama. Everything was a mystery of life. Perhaps, I would never understand. "Did you see May?" Liam came beside me and almost startled me. Yeah, by the way, I was talking about the weird couple and it was them, Liam and May. God knows how they ended up together! Most times I see them fighting and hear their complaints and in the next second, they would be found tangled with each other! On top of that, hiding whatever going on between them? Oh God, These two keep me on my toes more than my children do! It all started when May went to live with us after Jayden drama. Our dads were fond of travel and both me and Edward didn't want her to be alone, so she moved in with us in the Oakenhold mansion. Now,
Two years later ...EDWARD ... "Oh Fuck!" She purred under me when I slammed inside her slick folds. "Oh, Edward..." She screamed in ecstasy. "Yes baby, say my name. Let the whole of Italy know who you belong to." Growling, I kept pounding inside her as our sweaty bodies slapped against each other. "Fuck! Wife, how are you so tight still? Fuck, yes! I love this naughty pussy of yours! Squeezing your husband's cock harder, huh?!" She turned wetter. My words working on her like magic. With her tied hands, she was so vulnerable under my control. It was making her so needy and confident at the same time, while she desperately wanted to touch me. And I was obsessed with her. She looked so fucking beautiful under my mercy. I hold her legs and spin her on her stomach, Bending her on four and again slamming inside her, wrapping my fingers on her throat. We were fucking like two addicts with no sense. It was more like a punishment to her because she turned very naughty these days! We came
CATHERINE ... I woke up with my daughter lying on my chest. My movement woke her up. With her fluttering cerulean eyes, she watched me and immediately her eyes widened in excitement. "Mommy!" She hugged me and I smiled, holding her close. "Yes, my love. Mommy is awake." "Me and Papa missed you, Mommy." She muttered, hiding her face on my chest. "I know, I missed you both too." I kissed her chubby little face. "Okay, that's enough. Mommy needs rest now." Edward picked her up from me and set her on the couch before he sat beside me. "How are you feeling?" "Hmm, good." I leaned to his touch and closed my eyes, "feeling a little tired." "I know, you need proper rest." He said. However, I didn't go back to sleep again. I need lots of things to ask, "Is he alive? Jayden I mean." Edward nodded, "Yes, he is... I won't let him die." Edward was mad at him and I don't blame him. He was right in his place. Jayden needs his punishment. Especially, how he hurt those innocent people and May
EDWARD ... I couldn't care about our surroundings but my wife only. She fell on the sofa, tightly grabbing her belly. That was exactly what I was frightened about! "CATHERINE!" I rushed beside her. She already lost her consciousness. I picked her up and ran out of the room, leaving Jayden with Addison. I placed her in the car and Yelled at my driver to drive to the hospital. Her face was pale and her brows furrowed as if she was in pain. "Hurry up!" I groaned again. Soon, the car stopped in front of the R.Ford hospital and I rushed in with her in my arms. Doctors hurriedly attended ther as I was asked to wait outside. I did not want to but her doctor wouldn't let me in. Outside the emergency room, I was almost running mad! I shouldn't have let her go! I fucking should have stopped her! Don't know how long I waited, getting restless with each passing second, Dr Helena finally came out of the room. "Dr. how is she?" She nodded and smiled assuringly, "Don't worry, she is fine no
CATHERINE ... I exhaled a nervous breath, standing in from his apartment door. Hasty footsteps were heard and next, he opened the door. Jayden McCoy. A shiver ran down my spine recalling me I was standing in front of a psychopath who could do anything he wanted. "I am here now, so let go of May. Where is she?" I did not wait for a second to demand. He leaned against the door with a smirk plastered on his face, "Have some patience, love. You just came here." He moved aside, "Come on in." I swallowed hard and followed him Inside. I was a little surprised to see his place. I half expected to see some dark theme furniture and a messy environment, but it's all normal. "Have a seat." He pointed at the sofa and I had no choice but to oblige. "At least tell me how is she? Please tell me you didn't hurt her.".He squatted in front of me and held my hands as if we were long-time lovers! I wanted to snatch my hand away but the fear of hurting May I did not. "Calm down, Catherine. As long
CATHERINE ... "Ma'am, you are very famous among general people, including Elder Reinford because of your kindness and continuous charity." Our advocate Mr Wilson said. He was one the powerful and worthy advocates who worked with Roullard, also Dad's friend. So his advice would be much more positive and sensible, unlike Advocate Shane. I nodded, "Yes, I was involved quite much with Grandpa." I agreed, recalling those days although I don't know what benefit it would bring now. "Yes, and after your death announcement, people were so mortified and sad. You might not know but they had prayed for you for a very long time." He added. "Since then your husband, Edward has always done the charity in your name. People accepted it and they had a good overview of it." "Hmm, I have heard about it." "If I am not wrong, you have started your charity once you're back again. People accepted you wholeheartedly and even prayed for your family's safety... This is low-key a big achievement over the ye
EDWARD ... "The next thing is to do a formal apology in public, accepting all blame. The apology should be heartfelt, and a promise to take care of all those who had suffered in the accident." Advocate Shane spoke as I stared at him. "Then we will release fresh news of what happened to your wife and your lost child. This way, the public will start sympathizing with you and your family while moving on from this scandalous accident on the site... What do you think, Mr Reinford?" "Well, you're practically asking me to accept what I never did intentionally and then drag my wife and child into this mess?" I asked calmly even though I wasn't calm at all. He nodded with pride. "I really don't have any idea how Grandpa hired a pathetic jerk like you." "Excuse me?" "Yeah, you heard it right. And before I smack your head into this closed wall... Leave." I clenched my fists, trying to control myself. Thus fucking proud bustard was asking me to trade my years of dignity and my precious fami
