My face blew up with his statement and the staffs present chuckled at his statement. If he cared, he didn’t show and strolled towards me.“Where is the nurse?” he looked around.“She left,” I got out of the bed and started towards the food, finding every thing so appetizing.“She left?” he questioned. I didn’t bother turning back to him though because I was now looking at a lot of delicacies I wanted to try. We had everything. It was a breakfast for goodness’ sake. Yet it looked like a whole menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Including desert and appetizers. He was over doing it. But my stomach growled again, telling me it was ready to consume just about anything.“I am perfectly fine, so she left,” I responded and looked down at the sea food in front of me with interest. All sorts of fishes were in it, but the huge crap in front made me think of the headache I would face to eat it. That thought was only forming in my head when I found a chocolate fountain coming into the room. How
JORDANThe loud ringing sound had a familiar ring tone, reminding me that it was my phone. It had been ringing for a while and it wouldn’t stop. My sleep had been disturbed because of it, but because I was unwilling to let go of this very peaceful moment, I had with a certain woman who was still naked in my arms. I shut my eyes tightly, like the phone would shut up if I did that. However, it didn’t. And the caller did not stop to call not even once till I snapped my eyes opened and thought of smashing the phone.A soft groan came to my ears as Genesis snuggled against me and that thought disappeared immediately. I might wake her up and that phone was doing it already. With great control, I allowed her snuggle to a comfortable position in my arms before I moved, slowly, gently and slipped out of her arms, before I picked the phone. I still had intentions of smashing it against a wall but I had to go outside to do that. or I could just throw it inside the bathtub. Though water would do
“If you didn’t invite him over, who then did?” I growled at Aiden, feeling rage and panic swelling from inside me as I paced to and fro in my studies.“I have thought that your mother might have sent him the message. I only just received mine,” he explained calmly and I froze. Realization dawned on me and I realized how foolish I had been to have thought they would invite Nathan over for dinner after I had told them what had happened between us. They would never do that, not to me or my new found happiness but since mom did not know, she might have gone ahead to send him an invite. I groaned, regretting why I didn’t inform her of the new issues that arose between us but who knew that Genesis would have wanted dinner and mom who was not in good terms with Nate would go ahead to invite him over when she could not stand the sight of him?“You should not have yelled at me that way, Jordan,” Aiden mumbled and I sighed realizing how wrong I was to have wanted to rain nothing but thunder and
Mom waltz in, not realizing who she brought with her or what she had done. But my heart ached at the sight of him and at a split second, I was disliking Nate so fast. He caught my eyes and smirked at my direction, before he looked away and Tiffany and Tiana walked up to him. Mom and the Connor’s started speaking and I turned my attention to Aiden who was staring at me with a wary look. I sighed and started back down towards them and found my mom. She pulled me into a hug and eyed me from head to toe in assessment before I turned to Nate.“You came with him,” I began dryly.“Yes,” she turned to Nate and flashed him a wry smile.“I found him at my door step and had no option,” she turned to me and I smirked. He knew that I was going to chase him out the moment he came, and he had decided to go to my mom because with her beside him, my guards would not dare. How wonderful?“Don’t you look amazing,” Mom entered, still accessing me and I frowned at her.“I always look amazing,” I retorted
GENESISA smile appeared at Nathan’s lips when my mom turned to him and my heart skipped instantly. I could feel eyes on me as well and I looked around to find Tiffany and Tiana staring back at me with worried gazes. My lips curved into a smile, or rather a smirk when I saw the worried look on their faces. Where they worried about me? how could they be worried about me when, this was all them? They had no right to look at me that way when it had been them all along. It was too hypocritical to stare at me worried when it was just a day ago, they hid Nate in their room to have a conversation with me. I looked away from them, seeing no need to speak, not like I had spoken to them at all when I came down. I noticed that the twins were staring at me with worried gazes too, however, I was also very angry at the both of them, so I looked away without offering a smirk. It was pay back time. I turned to Nate instead whose gaze were on me and he had what I could say was amusement within them. a
Dinner had turned to a disaster in a matter of minutes and Nate was dragged out while he suddenly fell unconscious. I could feel my parents’ eyes on me and I could perceive the tension that had suddenly clogged the air. Jordan had the worse look so far with his gaze turning hard and his eyes burning anger so brightly, it was bound to frighten anyone.“What is going on? What was he talking about?” my father’s voice rang loudly, breaking the silence that fell over us. I gritted my teeth and slowly turn my gaze to him since it was inevitable. Nate had said what he needed to say and it was left to me to either lie or tell the truth, the whole truth. Where was I supposed to begin from, the recent one or from the very day of my marriage to Jordan? I could not afford to imagine what it was like for him, the gaze, the look, the way my parents would perceive Jordan from now on.“Will someone say something?” Father growled when it I gave him no reply. I could hear the anxiety in his tone and th
“Wait. What?” I entered with my thoughts running wide and my heart racing at the very thought of leaving.“We are leaving,” father got up on his feet, his words sounding so harsh and cold and leaving no room for an argument or protest.“I can’t leave,” I retorted and turned to my mother with pleading eyes and fear.“Yes, you can, dear and you will.”“This isn’t a marriage, its prison, it’s a cell, its dangerous and we are really sorry we brought you into this,” she came closer to me and took my both hands in his while she stared at me with pain in her eyes.“No..” I pulled my hands away from her and shook my head as tears came running down my eyes as well.“Its not a prison yard neither is it dangerous for me,” I kept protesting.“Samantha is gone and yes, I can be put in danger because of the family’s past and position, but Jordan is here and he would keep me safe. I trust that he would.”“He had not kept you safe the first few times you were taken or attacked,” father entered, his e
Jordan had fallen asleep in my arms the previous night, while clutching onto me like his life depended on it. It was strange to see him so clingy and his constant request that I do not leave him was beginning to bother me in as much as it made me understand that he wanted me.I opened my eyes, since I could no longer sleep. It was morning and I was supposed to be out of bed already. But the morning was extra ordinarily cold and I liked being cuddled by him than being away from bed.“Do you still want to sleep?” his voice suddenly came from behind me as his hot breath fanned my neck. I smiled, loving the sound of his voice first thing in the morning and adjusted myself to turn around so I could look at him. His eyes were sparkling and it made me crave for coffee so bad or hot chocolate and his smile had returned to his face, easing my heart.“How long have you been awake?” I asked and he scrunched his nose.“Morning breath, wife…” he began and I paled. My face heated up immediately aft
