SCOTT

A whole week with Maya in the same space and alone?

Cheers to a lifetime of fresh mistakes.

This felt like a trap right from the moment I read the details of our travel in the email she sent me. I would have protested if not for the “media” clause she referred to.

It all feels like they – Maya and my dad – are both trying to cage me under their wings by bringing up my mistakes and finding solutions to them that I have no say in.

Left to me, I would have stayed in my usual hotel suite.

It is even more conducive and yeah, it feels like home too.

Somewhere in my heart I know the real reason why I want to be there – it is closer to Camille, and the chances of our paths crossing while I am there is higher than this place.

But then it won't make any sense to be in New York with my bride to be and not be in one of her family's large network of hotels – an extension of their fashion empire.

The good thing is being here does not stop me from going to all the good places. Las Vegas sounds

    CAMILLESo he is the lucky man Miss Thompson is doing lingerie and sex toys shopping for.I wouldn't say I was surprised, the guy already proved the kind of man he is – the kind who only finds pleasure in fucking women.Being in the same room with him again made me feel conscious.And it didn't help that I could feel his gaze on my back, watching each step I took.I know for sure where his eyes will be settled on.It felt so good to see him again, yet so annoying as well – and jealous.Here he is in New York again, with another woman. One who is more successful and prettier than I am – I must admit.I guess I was just one his temporary pass in the absence of someone better, something I will never let myself be again.It took me a while to locate the bedroom, I dropped the sheets in the closet and the shopping bags on the bed.At least now I understand why two people who just got to the hotel will be requesting for new sheets, and I can't help but feel a little bit of jealousy at the f

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    I NEED HELP

    SCOTT.The intercom beeped again and I wondered what she had forgotten.Or is she just coming back to apologize too?To be fair I am not the only person who messed up, somewhere along the line she seemed to have forgotten that she also never told me she was married. Don't I have the right to be mad too?Why do I have to take all the blame now? Fuck her and fuck what she thinks of me. Maybe I am better off without her by the way.Then when do I feel this pain all over again instead of the peace that should come with finally letting go?No ring came before the elevator doors slid open.It was not her.'Hey, you look like you were expecting someone else'.I really was, but now you are here.'Are you okay?' She stepped towards me and looked at me with concern, and all I could see in the eyes that looked back at me at that moment was Lucille.This time I wasn't hallucinating, I was sure it was Maya standing in front of me, but I let myself think of Lucille while I stared back at her.Why d

    CAMILLEIt was 7:22 pm and I could not sleep.Not after today?I never thought I would see him again, even come so close to him. All my fantasies about him had ended in my mind and in the endless reels of pleasure it gave me almost every night.Yet, After all this time I finally see him again and he is with another woman who he dares try to lie to me about.Who does he think I am?He must really consider me to be a fool who has no idea what business and pleasure means.What were you thinking Camille? That he will keep chasing you? Remain faithful to you like you are not already married to another man?So stupid of me to harbor the flicker of hope that the times we spent together must have meant something to him – the way he looked at me back then like I was all that mattered to him-, hope that he will come around and apologize for the pain he caused me.But then he is just a playboy, a guy who fucked his own cousin's wife. What other good did I expect to come off him?I don't exactly

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    LOVE ISN'T REAL

    SCOTTThis is the first time Maya is actually avoiding me.Strange but true.And it says a lot about how far I have gone to mess everything around me up – I guess it's in my DNA.Worst thing is that I have nothing to say to make things right, but nothing I would say would make sense or make her feel any better.I had thought I could start something with her when she returned to the room, create a spark somehow and build something significant with her, leave my pass behind me and accept her for what she sees me for, but i couldn't. I was so stuck up on the memory of someone else.She had assumed that her only rival was Lucille. I can only imagine how she feels now after finding out that all this time she was trying to replace her sister. Meanwhile I was already groveling in the memories of another.If she is disappointed or mad at me, she wouldn't say,but I know it is either one of the two, maybe even ashamed of me too. It might also be that she is even tired of my games.I don't blam

    CAMILLEI woke up to bright lights and a beeping noise.James.Is he alright? When did I get here?I tried to get up but soft firm hands held me down and a gentle voice assured me that I was fine.I tried to pretend that I actually do believe her, meanwhile I wondered what had brought me here in the first place.Why am I the one in the hospital bed instead of James?Oh no! I remember the blood, the woman in the white dress, the noises...My baby.I sprang up immediately, shrugging off the firmer hand that tried to pull me back to the bed – not this time.'My baby, is my baby alive?' I asked everyone in the room who my eyes met, looking for someone who would be sincere to tell me what happened to my child. I didn't care who the boss was at that moment.'You are in safe hands Mrs Parker, and so is your child' a doctor replied and handed the files in his hands to a nurse beside him. My mind seemed to be at ease by his assurance and I laid back on the bed.'You just need to rest for a wh

    SCOTTI haven't seen her in a while...Since the last time we met in the suite.I was worried at first that she might have resigned or that Maya figured out about her and fired her, but then I stopped thinking about it, remembering my promise to Maya when she finally confronted me about the whole situation.It was a day before she was to introduce me to her business associates, we were having dinner in the restaurant downstairs like a normal couple when she finally brought it up, causing me to choke on my drink with the suddenness.'What?' I asked,trying to lower my voice and act normal in the midst of everyone walking around or sitting close by.'You heard me right, Scott, when were you going to tell me you were already fucking another woman' She looked so relaxed as she asked the question, resting back in her chair with a magazine in one hand and a glass of sparkling wine in the other.I wondered if the drink was the secret to how well she guarded her emotions – or maybe there was r

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    SHE TOOK MY BABY

    CAMILLEI didn't know what exactly to tell my boss when I resumed my job three days later.Telling him I had almost suffered a miscarriage because I was overworking myself is the last option. I need this job for several reasons, but most especially to keep my mind occupied and away from the whole load that threatens to explode in there.I had already said I didn't have any kids and even though it hadn't come up, I know very well that I should have let them know during the interview about my state.I sat in the soft and very comfortable chair opposite him which on any other normal day I would have relaxed into, but now I drummed my fingers on my thighs while I waited for him.He was out in a very important meeting with new partners and I silently prayed that whatever the meeting was about, he would come out in a good mood.The last thing I need is an upset boss coming in to listen to my flimsy excuse about why I missed work for three whole days without impromptu notice and within just

    CAMILLESomething about that meeting made me want to see Scott.I can't really place what but I was suddenly moved to confront him and tell him the truth about the baby I am having and about everything else.It felt oddly strange that I will be seeing someone in my dream, or should I say passing out phase, just after a day of merely delivering her order up to her room. The weirdness of it replaced my detective qualities with a new obsession – a good one too.A strong need to keep my child safe from any more threats. Miss Thompson might not be the threat but someone out there might be, and I felt like telling Scott about it.If James was awake I wouldn't mind at all, but in the absence of any other male presence in my life, I felt insecure and in danger. I need a man to just stand by me during this time.I trust myself and my instincts, and right now my instinct is telling me that something is off and something very devastating is about to happen. I could feel it in every inch of my bo

    SCOTTSeconds passed by, and to me it felt like hours, it felt like ages.'How can you even say something like that? She was the love of your life for how many-' 'And she went ahead and slept with my own little cousin just a week or two after I got hospitalized? Tell me Scott, how long did you both know each other, tell me how long you guys had been fooling me for''But you can't just take her life for that mistake, what if she is happy? What if-''I do not want to remind you again Scott, I still hold the gun' he wiggled the gun in front of me to proof his point and I raised my hands in surrender, and all the time I just tried to keep my anger at bay and not end up doing something we were all going to regret.But I had to do something either way. There were not more than seven steps between us at that moment, and if I took very slow steps towards him I was sure he was not going to notice.'I am sorry about your pa and your wife. Damn, I didn't know there was some level of hate moving

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    I PRAYED FOR A MIRACLE.

    CAMILLEI didn't understand anything that was going on , but I was damn sure that whatever it was was taking a hard toll on Scott.I watched him recoil when the blindfold was taken out of his eyes, and no expression or reaction of his missed my notice.I just wished I could hold him, I could at least get close enough to him and feel what he was feeling then. But then I already had a lot to deal with to worry about what someone else felt.But still.I was trying to make sense of their discussion, of what Maya was trying to say to him, but it all seemed fucked up and each revelation only made him even more withdrawn and definitely furious.And then his father.Okay, well, technically not his father, but how could he do such a thing to a son he raised as his all these years.I was trying to figure out how all that had anything to do with me until she called the name “Lucille”. I knew I had heard that name, somewhere, probably from...Yes, from Scott.That asshole, that was the name he ke

    SCOTTI just sat there on the floor and watched her pace the room with the gun in one hand and a baseball bat in the other. She looked just like I always knew her to be – the real thug.'You know you all kept tossing me around and making me look like a messed up shit''That's because you are Maya, you are a crazy woman''No I am not Scott. You are the one who is crazy, you are the one who keeps thinking I am the evil one who killed my own sister and who still tried to come for your family. I am not crazy, but trust me you are such a foolish asshole,' she screamed and I couldn't help but laugh at her craziness.'I have known you well and I know you love to manipulate people into falling into your plans. Is that what you did to my dad too? Is that how you got him to get you pregnant and put it on me?''Well I am glad he is here and you will find out everything Scott''And you think I will be too foolish as to believe whatever you are going to say now when you have got us all under ropes

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    THIS IS WHERE IT ALL STARTED...

    CAMILLEI had never experienced a lot of things in my life, and one of them was having a gun being pointed at me.And not just from anyone, but from a woman who looked like a mess.‘Of course I knew he would be here with your sorry ass' I heard her say, above the thumping in my ears. I could not think of anything else but the kids just in the next room.What if they got tired and just decided to come out?Oh God, I just wish they didn't. I can be the reason they have to deal with another trauma.'Hey, hello, h-h-how are you doing?' I stammered as I took several steps backwards until I hit the kitchen sofa.'How am I doing? Bitch I should be asking you that. Because you don't seem to be holding your shit together''Maya, just let her go, she has nothing to do with this' I heard Scott struggle to say while trying to get up from the floor. There was blood on his face, and it wasn't just blood from wherever he had gotten it from before.He was hurt, and it scared the shit out of me.She

    CAMILLE'What the hell are you doing here? I thought we were done for good?' I stared at him with all the hate in my chest, one that melted as quickly as it tried to surface. There was no way I could ever be that mad at him, but I wish I could, at least this one time.I was really surprised to see him at my doorstep, especially since he was supposed to be enjoying his honeymoon with his new bride in London or wherever.He looked really bad with the blood on his hands and the bruises on his face and I was worried that the cobs might trace him down to my house and get me in the open as well.'Please can I come in at least?''The hell no, as a matter of fact I need you to leave' I said but I knew if he turned his back at that moment I would be on my knees begging him to come back.I didn't know how I got there but I knew for sure that was so so fucking in love with that guy. I couldn't stand him walking away yet again, and he didn't look like he was trying to either.'Please Camille, jus

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    MY WIFE?

    SCOTTI sat back in the car for more than an hour, just watching her front lawn and wondering if I should go in – but then I had James to worry about.Everything looked as peaceful as it always used to be when James was in the hospital. I just wish he was never in the picture in the first place, then I would not have made a wrong choice in the woman I walked down the aisle with.I was just about to step out of the car when two men walked out of the house and they both left in a car. One of them was James and the other looked familiar, like I had seen him somewhere.Well, I didn't have enough time to think about that, I had to seize the opportunity and talk to Camille before James returned.I hurried over to the door and rang the doorbell, but no one opened up even after the third ring, and I was getting a little bit tensed up.What if she was out as well? What if she didn't even come back home with James after the wedding?How will you even think that James? She loves that man and tha

    SCOTT'It's a surprise to see you here today Mr Scott' I heard Mrs Judith say and I wanted to tell her the real reason I was in her office after canceling our appointments more than a hundred times, but my lips were sealed shut in shock – just as they had been since after walking in on my so-called-wife riding my dad like a wild beast.'So, to what do I owe this visit today?' she asked again while pouring me a glass of hot drink – just as I always liked it before a therapy session. It always got me loose and helped me say things the way I felt them, but not that day.She didn't look the least bit frustrated with my silence or nonchalance, doing really well at maintaining her professional protocol.She finally set a glass of brandy in front of me and sat on the manager's chair opposite me.'I found out about your wedding to Miss Thompson to the press Mr Scott, and although I didn't have the perfect opportunity to, I still wish you a happy married life' That did it. that unsealed my lip

    CAMILLEA month passed, and yet I still felt the sting from the stiffing blow James descended on me once we were behind doors at George's party.I didn't expect any less from him. From the moment he found out the identity of my child's baby I had only come to realize that the man I knew all my life was only a mask of who he truly was – a masked lion.I had returned to New York that same evening even against his own wish, and I surprised myself too with the courage I showcased. I wanted to apologize to Katherine for how everything had turned out, for not confiding in her, but who was I fooling?It would have been different if I had confided in her first, if I had trusted her enough to tell her the whole truth before publicly exposing her husband and rubbing the shame on her face in the presence of all the guests there who also respected her so much.But the next action she took was one I had never expected and the only reason why I deeply regretted my actions at that moment.It came as

  • Forbidden Love With My Husband's Billionaire Cousin    DAD?

    SCOTTA month had passed since our wedding, and Maya was crazy about consummating it.I keep wondering if she really thought that getting married to me meant that everything between us will be put in the past like it never happened.I always made it clear to her how much of a mistake she was making, and the last thing she would expect from me again is the sex.She had even gone ahead to tell dad about the situation. Didn't she even feel the least bit awkward saying something like that to him in the first place?When I didn't listen to dad either, her best resolve was to delay the signing of any contract or business information that she had to sign since she was still the head of her family's company until the paperwork was done and I became a sole partner and a joint one too, the company's assets.I had tried to convince her about how unnecessary all that was since I knew with certainty that she was only doing that to get my attention even more attracted to her, but she stood firm on
