OVER-THE-TOP GENEROSITY

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-18 04:17:20

Lara's POV

I already knew. Of course, I knew. But hearing him say it, watching the words form on his lips, felt like a slap in the face. My nails dug into my palm as I forced a neutral expression.

“Why are you telling me this now?” I asked, my voice low but steady.

“Because you’re important to me,” he said without hesitation. “I don’t want you to feel left out or blindsided.”

His words should have been comforting, but they only fueled the fire burning inside me. Important? Left out? Was that all he thought I felt?

"But why so soon?” I asked, my voice sharper than I intended. “Why is the date so close? What’s the hurry?”

He raised his brow, throwing a question gaze at me.

I struggled to give a reasonable excuse.

"I-I mean, both you and Elena are still young for marriage . why are you in a hurry to get married?"

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    MUST BE PRESENT

    Elena’s POV I stood near the refreshment table, trying to calm the storm of emotions brewing inside me. My fingers tightened around the stem of my champagne glass, and I took a slow sip, but the unease didn’t fade. The weight of the evening pressed heavily on my shoulders. Guests filled the grand hall, laughter and conversation blending into a hum, but all I could think about was Aiden’s absence. Where was he? He should have been here by now. The thought of him not showing up sent a cold shiver through me. I couldn’t let anyone notice my worry; I had to keep my composure. The last thing I needed was to give anyone a reason to gossip. “Father,” I said softly, pulling him away from a group of his business partners who had been deep in conversation. “Are you sure Aiden will show up?” He gav

    Lara's POV The moment we stepped into the grand hall, all eyes turned to us. Aiden’s palm rested firmly on my waist as he guided me through the sea of guests with practiced ease. I could feel the stares—admiring, curious, and some judgmental—but I lifted my chin and focused on the man beside me. I couldn’t help but notice her. Elena. She stood at the edge of the hall, her sparkling evening gown clinging to her like it was designed to remind everyone she was the star of the evening. Her sharp gaze flickered toward us, narrowing slightly as her eyes settled on Aiden’s hand resting firmly on my waist. I pretended not to notice her obvious disapproval, focusing instead on the grandeur of the room. Glittering chandeliers hung above, casting a warm golden glow over the elegantly dressed crowd. Soft music played i

    Lara’s POV The world seemed to tilt as Jake spun me, my breath hitching from the sudden motion. But when the spinning stopped, I realized I was no longer in Jake’s arms. Instead, I found myself pressed against a chest that was far too familiar, strong, and unyielding. My uncle, Aiden. I froze, feeling his hands steady me, one firm on my waist, almost possessive and the other lightly brushing my back. His piercing gaze locked onto mine, and the air between us grew thick—too thick. My heart raced, and a strange chill ran down my spine, making my body tense against his. I blinked in confusion. How had I ended up here? A quick glance to the side revealed Elena in Jake’s arms, her eyes wide with disbelief and her body stiff. It was as if the dance floor had momentarily swallowed everyone else, leaving the four of us trapped in a strange, unintended exchange. "Uncle," I breathed, my voice barely audible over the music.

    Aiden's POV The sight made my blood boil. Jake stood too close to Lara, his posture casual, but his presence invasive. Lara looked pale, her wide eyes snapping to me as the door opened. “Jake,” I said coldly, stepping into the room. My voice cut through the tension like a blade. He turned to me, his expression calm, almost smug. “Aiden,” he greeted smoothly, as if my interruption was nothing more than a minor inconvenience. Lara looked like she wanted to say something, but she didn’t. Her lips parted, then closed again as if she couldn’t find the words. Her silence unnerved me. Jake gave me a nod, brushing past me without another word. “I’ll leave you two to it,” he said, his tone maddeningly nonchalant as he exited the room. As the door clicked shut behind him, my gaze fell on Lara. She lo

    Lara's POV The car ride home was suffocatingly silent. Aiden’s grip on the steering wheel was firm, his knuckles slightly pale. I sat beside him, my hands clutching my dress nervously. The tension in the air was thick, and I dared not speak. When we finally reached home, he stepped out of the car without a word. I hesitated, watching him walk toward the front door, his posture stiff and unyielding. Gathering my courage, I followed him inside. The moment the door closed behind me, Aiden turned, his piercing gaze locking onto mine. "Go to your room," he said, his voice low and commanding. I froze, the authority in his tone making my heart race. "But—" "Now, Lara," he interrupted, his eyes narrowing dangerously. I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of his unspoken words. Without another word, I turned and ascended the stairs, my legs trembling with each step. Once in my room, I shut the door and leaned against it, my mind a tangled mess of emotions I couldn’t untangle For t

    (Lara's pov) “Lara, listen to me,” my mom’s voice was gentle but firm as she stood by the door. “You need to promise me something.” I turned to look at her, a puzzled frown on my face. “What is it, Mom?” “Promise me you won't give your uncle a tough time,” she said, her eyes softening. “He’s been kind enough to let you stay with him now that you’ve transferred to his city. It’s a big change, and he’s doing this for you because he cares.” I sighed, trying to brush off the conversation. “I know, Mom. I’ll be fine.” She stepped forward, cupping my face in her hands. “I mean it, Lara. Be patient with him, okay?” “Okay, okay,” I nodded, giving her a small smile. “I promise.” She looked relieved, a smile touching her lips. “Good. Now, you should get some sleep. Tomorrow’s going to be a long day.” I nodded, watching as she gave me one last look before leaving my room, closing the door behind her. I sat down on the edge of my bed, staring at my packed bags. It was really happe

    Aiden’s POV “What the f**k!” I yelled into the phone, My voice came out louder than I intended, and the entire room fell silent. I could feel the eyes of my business partners on me, but I didn’t care. Lara mattered more than their opinions. “What do you mean you haven’t seen her?” The driver stammered on the other end, trying to explain. “I waited at the airport, sir, but she never showed up. I checked around, but—” "Why the hell did it take you three hours to tell me you couldn't find her!” I felt my patience running thin. “Lara was supposed to be here by four! Now it’s seven, Damn it, and you have the audacity to tell me you haven’t seen her?” The driver mumbled some excuse, but I cut him off. “I don’t care how you do it. You better find her. And don’t call me until you have her.” I ended the call, slamming the phone on the table. The weight of my worry was slowly suffocating me. " Where are you, baby? Call me. Please.” I sent it, staring at the screen, and waited for wh

    Aiden’s POV I had already been to the airport once, but now I was going back there again. This time, I wouldn’t leave until I found her. My heart pounded with a mixture of frustration and worry. "Damn it, Princess, where the hell are you?" I muttered under my breath, gripping the steering wheel tighter. As I reached the airport, I noticed a crowd gathered near the exit. My instincts screamed at me to check it out. I quickly pulled the car to the curb, got out, and pushed my way through the crowd. My eyes went wide as I saw her—Lara, lying unconscious on the ground. My heart sank. For a moment, everything else around me blurred. All I could think of was her. I rushed over, dropping to my knees beside her, cradling her head gently. "Baby! Hey, angel, wake up," I called out, trying to keep my voice steady, but fear crept in. People stared, their concerned murmurs barely registering as I cradled her head in my lap. I could hardly breathe, my heart pounding louder than the crowd’

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    PUNISHMENT~~~

    Lara POV The room was silent except for the soft hum of the air conditioning. I sat comfortably on the leather sofa, crossing my legs as I watched my uncle behind his desk. He had returned to his work after ensuring I was seated. His pen moved fluidly across the papers in front of him, but I could tell his mind wasn’t entirely on the task. I leaned back, draping my arm along the back of the sofa. My eyes lingered on him, appreciating the way his jaw clenched with concentration. He was in his element here, commanding, powerful, and completely mine. The sound of hesitant footsteps broke the silence, followed by a soft knock at the door. “Come in,” Aiden said, his voice clipped and cold. The receptionist stepped inside, her face pale, her hands trembling slightly. My lips twitched in amusement as I took in her state. Good. She should be scared. She deserved whatever my uncle had planned for her. I leaned further into the sofa, the corner of my mouth lifting in satisfaction

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    LET ME HANDLE THIS

    Lara POV As we entered my uncle's office, I was immediately struck by how grand and sophisticated it looked. The air inside was cooler, quieter, as if the walls themselves demanded respect. The space was wide and polished, with a massive desk at the far end, framed by a breathtaking view of the city skyline. Aiden sat behind the desk, his piercing gaze fixed on a document in his hand. He didn’t even glance up at first, and I hesitated by the door, unsure if I should disturb him. His assistant gestured for me to step forward, but I felt rooted to the spot. This was a side of Aiden I’d never seen before—calm, commanding, and so different from the playful uncle I knew. The assistant cleared his throat softly, drawing Aiden’s attention. His head shot up, and as soon as his eyes landed on me, the serious expression melted away. A small smile spread across his lips. Damn that smile. My heart melted instantly, a

    Lara's POV After school, the driver picked me up as usual. But after a few minutes on the road, I noticed something odd. The car was heading in a different direction—not the familiar route we always took home. I furrowed my brows and leaned forward slightly. “Why are we taking this route today?” I asked the driver, unable to hide my curiosity. The driver glanced at me briefly through the rearview mirror before answering, “Sir Aiden instructed me to bring you to his office after college.” I blinked, surprised. “To his office? Why?” He hesitated before answering. “I wouldn’t know, Miss Lara.” That made sense. Of course, the driver wouldn’t know the reason. Still, I couldn’t help but wonder why my uncle suddenly wanted me at his office.
