Groom For The Day It Can't Be
He knew something was wrong.He just didn’t know what exactly was wrong.She didn’t change towards him.At least not in any hostile way.For the four days she spent in Abuja, he wasn’t able to talk to her once.He had not been able to speak to her after he woke up that weird night. Meg always said she was busy and couldn’t come to the phone.She didn’t try to call him back at all either.Not only that, he had heard on the news that Martinez was also in Abuja during that time and some were wondering if it was just a coincidence or not.All his messages went unanswered as well.He thought she would get back in the evening of the day she was to arrive, and he even cancelled the last shoot he had with Laureve that day so he could go pick her up and surprise her with the local delicacy she told him she loved.But he was surprised when he came downstairs that morning and found her in the living room.“Tanya? You are back?” he asked in surprise, wondering if it was the dream he was having ab
Groom For The Day Only The Rich Can Afford Passion
Ayo was shocked by what he saw on his author’s dashboard.He couldn’t believe that the website he had signed up on almost a year ago would finally yield something this much for him.Still, in disbelief, he clicked on the withdrawal button to withdraw the $49984 from his account.He got a notification almost immediately that the withdrawal had been received, and he would get the money in his account very soon.“Am I dreaming?” Ayo wondered as he went back to check on the book’s data.“What?!” he shouted in surprise when he saw that the book had more than fifty million readers already and the comments were just so crazy.People were even asking if the author had a social media handle where they could follow him because they wanted more stories from him.Some asked that he should develop the stories of the other side characters too.Tears ran down his eyes when he remembered how he casually started this story back then.He had just finished washing Mr Tomori’s car and when he went to giv
Groom For The Day Unlike Some Liars
“Good day to you too, Melinda. Please, step out of my way. I have a business to attend to” Ayo said gently.“What business does a man like you have in a bank like this?” she asked innocently, then before Ayo could sidestep her, she raised her voice again. “Oh? You are here to withdraw the money your sugar mommy gave you? Oh, you should have said that before.”“What the fuck is wrong with you?” Ayo said through gritted teeth. “Get out of my way.”He tried to move around, but she suddenly shouted as she held her hand up, “Ouch, it hurts! What did you hit me for? Is it a crime that I stopped to greet you?”What? “Wait, what are you yapping about? I didn’t even touch you and…”Big, fat tears rolled down her face as she looked at someone behind him, “He hit me! Darling, I have bruises on my hand. I just stopped to greet him, and he hit me!”Ayo turned around to see James looking at the two of them with a hooded expression. “What is going on, young man?” James asked in a monotone.“I told
Groom For The Day We Are Done
Darlington Palace was the most majestic palace Ayo had ever seen.The fact that it had no main gate, which made it open to the people, did not reduce the beauty of the impressive walls decorated with intricate designs and tall towers.Beautiful gardens filled with colourful flowers and lush plants surround them. Wide steps lead up to the red-brick main building. With its open doorways welcoming visitors into its grandeur.A uniformed valet came to meet Ayo as he stepped out of his car, “You are welcome, Prince Consort,” the man said before he raised his hand for the key.Ayo almost looked back to be sure the man was talking to him.“Prince consort? Me?” He wondered for a second before he realised what it meant.“Oh, because I…oh, okay,” he said with an awkward smile as he gave the man his key.“Your car will be well taken care of, consort,” the valet said with a bow before he entered the car.“Consort? Can you believe that?” Ayo wondered with a smile as he thought of what his sisters
Groom For The Day Can't Have That
Everyone was dressed so tastefully that he was a bit embarrassed by his casual wear.“Who does he think he is, coming here dressed like that?” a prominent sneer showed on Dowager Charlotte’s face as he entered.She was seated close to the head of the table with a boy on her lap. The boy, who was showing her his car before Ayo entered, turned his curious eyes to him, just as the other guests turned to look at him too.Ayo could count at least two kings whose faces were familiar and other prominent people that he had no idea who they were.The Darlington’s idea of a private dinner was definitely far from what he had imagined.“Mother,” King George called his mother quietly, then he gestured to Ayo in welcome. “Welcome to my home, Mr. Taiwo. Come join us.”Charlotte scoffed as she sipped her spitzer.“Thank you for having me, Your Highness,” Ayo said in greeting.“Your Majesty,” Charlotte said immediately, “You address the king as Your Majesty. If he doesn’t even know something as simple
Groom For The Day Her Brother's Blood
“Then you have to give a toast too. It is a family thing,” Brianna said with a wink.Ayo’s smile bloomed as he looked at her," You are right, Bri.”He wasn’t going down without a fight. All he did wrong was that he didn’t keep his heart in check. If he was rejected, at least he needed to try.Brianna smiled and said, “You are up next,” Then she laughed as George’s best friend tossed in some embarrassing details in his toast that had the king groaning out loud.Ayo laughed as well and turned around to see Tanya looking at him. She turned away when he looked back.He took a step towards her just as the friend wrapped up his toast with a boast to beat the king the next time they got into the ring together.“In your dreams,” King George said as Brianna whispered, “Your turn,”********“That was such a great toast you gave,” King George said as he followed them outside.“It definitely can’t beat that of your friend, your Majesty,” Ayo said.King George laughed, “That scoundrel. You should
Groom For The Day Nobody Wants You
Even the sky wept on the day King George was buried.The heavy clouds opened with a continuous drizzle that started while they were in service by the graveyard.Dressed in black, the people who came to pay their last respects to the well-loved king filled the royal cemetery to the brim and beyond the gate.People tried to hold back their sniffles and cries as the pastor spoke about the eternal home which awaited the righteous.Ayo kept looking at Tanya, who stood rigidly beside her sister-in-law while her bodyguards held umbrellas over them.“I wish she would hold on to me like that,” he thought when he saw the way she held Brianna’s hand tightly.He could see how their shoulders shook occasionally even as they stood strong without making a sound.He wanted to comfort her. He wanted her to turn to him at that time of her life.He wanted to share his grief with her.He had only known George for a little while after all, but still, he couldn’t help but feel the magnitude of the loss.He
Groom For The Day She Chose Him
Just like that, they stayed talking until morning.“I have to go,” she said as the shaft of light brushed the sky.“Okay,” Ayo said even though he had a lot more to say.“Yeah,” she said without disconnecting the call and they both grew quiet again, each listening to the breathing of the other.“I miss you,” Ayo said suddenly. “I wish I could have been there with you. I hope I can help you through this. I want to be there for you.”He heard the catch of her breath before she said in a low tone; “We need to talk. After.”“Okay, but…”“I need to go. The queen… we are having a meeting with the councils of kingsmaker today. They say it's a condolence visit, but I don’t think it is that simple. So, yeah. I need to go. To prepare and stuff.”“Can I come and see you?” Ayo asked hurriedly before she could disconnect the call.“I will be busy,” she said before the call was disconnected.Ayo’s heart grew heavy again as he stared at his phone. At first, it seemed like things were better between t
