Ethan's POV "Are you cheating on me, Cupcake?". "F*ck! Where is that coming from?" "You had a woman's perfume on you. Tell me. Who is she?" "No, I can never cheat on you, sunshine. And there is no one. At least, she is nobody you need to bother yourself with. You're more than enough for me. I promise ". I sincerely told her how I felt. She is everything I want or need in a woman. Her magic fingers were still roaming around my scalp, and it was relaxing my nerves. "Please, keep going sunshine. I want to feel you more".I begged. She doesn't know what she's doing to me. I crave her more and more and I don't think I can stop tonight. "I know you're hiding something from me. Yes, or no? If you lie. We're done. But, if you tell me the truth. I will give you all of me tonight and as long as we can go. The choice is yours, cupcake". Now, this is crazy. How can she do this to me__ "aaaahhh". I moaned. She is moving her hips again. "yes, yes, sunshine, keep going, yeah__f*CK! Why d
Emma's POV I was scared. I thought I was losing him. I thought I wasn't enough for him. Some women have been texting me lately, but I kept the information away from him. Ethan is not the only one keeping a secret. I am also as guilty as him. We're all keeping secrets. I don't mind it. But then, I was scared. What if there is another woman? I won't be able to survive it. Ethan is everything to me. He is a good husband and a lover. He is also a good father to Eli. I can't lose him to another woman. I suspect that Magdalene of a woman. It can only be her. After everything he said last night. And everything we did. I know that I can never let him go no matter what happens after. He is mine. And, he will continue to be mine. I am ready to face any obstacles that might come our way. I will fight for my love. I love him so much. It will kill me if I lose him. So, I've decided to get a secret investigator to watch him. I will help him to fight whoever is troubling him. I know it'
Ethan's POV I felt a wet and warm substance on my face. I opened my eyes to see the beautiful hazel eyes of my wife while her soft lips were all over my face, showering me with feather kisses. I smiled grabbed her head from behind, and smashed my lips to hers, not minding the morning breath. And she giggled in my mouth. I kissed her with so much passion before I let go. "Good morning sunshine". I said. "Morning cupcake". She blushed. And I chuckled. She never ceases to amaze me. "Did you sleep well?". I asked. Last night was intense. I know how I drilled her. Even I am exhausted. She pulled away from me and sat on the edge of the bed. "I had to wake early to make you breakfast". She said and I was stunned. "You did?". And she nodded. I was awestruck. She went all the way to make me breakfast? Wow. "I want you to go in there and freshen up so you can eat. You need it". She pulled me out of bed and winked. I was still teasing her when I realised that she almost fell. I grab
Emma's POV "Ethan, please". I stood up from the sofa where I sat and relocated to sitting on the edge of the bed. "Do you want me to throw up again?". I scowled and folded my arms across my chest. Ever since the doctor confirmed my pregnancy. For three weeks now, Ethan has been feeding me with soups, porridge and vegetables. I no longer eat the things I like. It's like a torture. I can't do this anymore. Dealing with morning sickness is so tiring. On top of that, I wasn't allowed to eat the only things that I like eating. "Sunshine, please. It's for the__" "Baby. I know". I completed his words for him. This is what we're told. "I want my cupcakes and nothing ". I deadpanned. "Ok. I will get you some but promise me, you will take the soup and the vegetables?". He bargained. I scoffed and nodded anyway. "Yes, I promise". Then, I pouted. He left the room immediately. He always goes to the office late these days. It is either he doesn't go at all, or he goes late. Things he sho
Emma's POV "We're here ma'am". Albert Informed me. I climbed down from the van as Alvero opened the door for me. I looked around the neighbourhood. One person caught my attention. Zack? I saw Zack coming out of a building and walking across the road. Which only means one thing. My husband is here. "Which building are we going into?". I asked my bodyguards who were still looking around. They didn't see Zack, though, and I am so grateful for that. If Zack had seen us. He wouldn't let my mission be successful. Alvero led the way and I followed behind him. Albert was behind me, looking out to protect me from any threat. We made it to the floor and the right door according to Alvero. "Are you sure this is her place?" I asked for a confirmation. I wouldn't want to embarrass myself if we got the wrong apartment. "Yes, ma'am. This is the place". He confirmed it. I breathe in and out preparing myself for whatever I'm about to discover. Whatever it is. I will deal with it. However
Ethan's POV Five years ago. My grandfather arranged my marriage to Martha, his best friend's daughter. I loved her. I gave her my everything. She was the first woman I had ever loved. Our wedding was magnificent. We were so in love with each other. One day... I got back from France. My accountant informed me that a significant amount of money had been transferred to a private account. And they were unable to track down the money. I asked how much it was. And he mentioned two billion dollars. That was a lot of money. So I told them to investigate further. When I got home. I overheard my wife talking on the phone. What piqued my interest was her mention of two hundred million dollars. She had transferred the money to the person she was speaking with. From that moment on, I knew she was the one stealing from me. I was unable to proceed inside. Instead, I went back and slept out. When I woke up the next morning. My accountant gave me a call. Another two hundred million
Emma's POV I am not sure what to think anymore. The only person I ever trusted decided to betray me. How did I go wrong by trusting him? He granted me every wish that I could have asked for. I felt so loved by him. Before I met him? Before meeting him, I had never been in a relationship, but ever since we exchanged vows, he has been the greatest man I could have asked for. Why would he do that to me? Did he not have enough trust in me to tell me about his ex-wife and mother? I assumed marriage was about trust and companionship. I don't know what else to think. A knock on my office door broke my train of thought. "Come in," I said. The door opened, and Alvero entered with a quick, long stride. He was holding an iPad. I furrow my brows at him. I understand I sent him on an errand. But what is with the iPad he is holding? "What is it?" I inquired, my gaze drawn to his hand. He smiled as he held my gaze. "Everything you need to know about the Boss and his ex is right h
"Mr Williams, please" "Stop calling me that!" he yelled at me. "You do not have the right to yell at me, Ethan," I said, standing up to him. I have tried to avoid this confrontation, but it appears he will not let me. I got up from my seat and approached him. "You have no right to shout at me. Is there anyone who has the right to shout? That would be me." I locked eyes with him, glaring at him because I was so angry right now. He grabbed my hands with his own and slapped himself repeatedly. I struggled to free myself from his grip, but he would not let go. I was weak. I am not strong enough to fight him. I just want to be left alone. He knelt and hugged my hips, pleading. "I am sorry, Cupcake. I never intended to hide anything from you. Trust me. "I wanted to deal with it myself." He began to explain himself while sobbing. I was also in tears. But it also hurt. And I am jealous. How could he? I am angry not just because he kept his problem from me, but also because he was with
It had been four years since Alvero passed away, and Emma still missed him deeply. His absence weighed on her, but there was nothing anyone could do to change the past.Liam had been in prison since then, with no hope of ever being released. Ethan had made sure of that. The family, however, was now at peace and thriving. Arabella, who once struggled to adapt to her new life, had found her place. Her love with Prince burned with a fire that refused to be quenched.With their wedding around the corner, Arabella had taken time away to visit her parents. She wanted to spend precious moments with them before her big day. The wedding preparations were in full swing, and Arabella, for once, let others take charge. She was content knowing everything was under control. Her relationship with her father had also blossomed over time. He had finally legally married her mother, and they now lived together as one happy family, united by love.Meanwhile, Prince was growing restless. It had been seven
Liam denied all the allegations presented against him. But during the interrogation, the evidence was played before him, and his jaw dropped.He had been assured that all evidence against him had been destroyed. How did the police get their hands on this one? he wondered in disbelief.The room fell silent. Liam couldn’t find any words to defend himself. His silence was taken as a confession, and the police wasted no time in locking him up. His court trial loomed ahead.---Ethan visited Liam after ensuring Emma had returned safely to the mansion. He wasn’t sure what he hoped to achieve, but he needed to speak to the man who had wronged him so profoundly.Standing before Liam’s cell, Ethan was granted permission to see his criminal friend.When Liam saw Ethan, he chuckled bitterly and rose to his feet. "Very thoughtful of you to come see how I’m doing," he sneered. "But let me tell you, my dear friend, locking me here won’t save you from me.""Why?" Ethan asked, his voice steady but ti
Ethan sat in his office, his hands trembling as he watched the video clips. The images played over and over in his mind, each frame burning deeper into his heart. He couldn’t believe it—his childhood friend, Liam, and his assistant had gone this far. For money.Liam, his brother in everything but blood, had been envious of him all along. Ethan thought back to all the years they’d shared; all the trust he’d placed in a man who had now turned out to be a snake.Prince, his son, had always disliked Liam. Ethan dismissed those feelings as baseless, but now he realized how wrong he’d been.And Emma. His wife. She had suspected Liam all these years. Ethan clenched his fists. She had been investigating Liam in secret, keeping it all from him to protect him. It stung deeply that she hadn’t trusted him enough to confide in him, though he understood why. If he had known, he could have handled the matter himself. Instead, she carried this heavy burden for twenty-five long years.“I’m sorry, sir,
Emma had been hospitalized ever since the incident. She had grown close to Alvero, considering him like the little brother she never had. He had been her confidant, the one who supported her investigations into Liam when her suspicions began to grow. Alvero had been the first to take her fears seriously, guiding her with patience and care.But now, he was gone.The weight of that realization hit her like a wave. She could have been in that same car. Her mind raced to her driver—her driver who had betrayed her. Panic surged through her, and she bolted upright in bed, weak but determined."Ethan!" she screamed, her voice trembling.Her husband was by her side in an instant. "I'm here, sunshine. I’m here with you," Ethan cooed softly.She clung to him, her tears soaking into his shirt. "Shh, it’s okay, baby. I’m here," he whispered, gently patting her back, his voice a soothing balm to her breaking heart."My driver," she choked out, her voice raw. "Has he been caught?"Ethan sighed, nod
Emma sat in her office, her eyes fixed on the screen as the video played. Liam’s face appeared, his voice cold and calculated as he gave orders. Her hands trembled, and her body quivered uncontrollably. Tears streamed down her face. Two accountants—two innocent lives—had been assassinated on Liam’s instructions.She wanted to stop watching. Every instinct in her screamed to turn off the video and look away, but she couldn’t. There were more clips—more evidence she had to see. If she wanted to protect her family, she had to endure this.She had always sensed Liam wasn’t a good friend to her husband. There was something about him—something slippery, something false. But never, not in her worst nightmares, had she thought he could be this dangerous. He was a murderer, a viper in their midst that needed to be stopped.Alvero, her trusted bodyguard, sat across from her, silently observing. He noticed her shaking hands and the devastation on her face. He knew what was coming—dark secrets sh
The two lovebirds were at it again, as if their desire for each other could never be quenched. Their passion burned brightly, unyielding, just like Prince Desmond’s parents, Ethan and Emma. Even in their older years, their love for one another remained fervent, an untouchable bond that time could never erode. Desmond had always admired their connection and quietly wished for a love like theirs. Now, with Arabella, he believed he had found something even deeper—a love that threatened to surpass theirs.Arabella was everything to him, a woman crafted for him by the heavens. She drove him mad in the best way, her presence a constant, magnetic pull on his soul. She had no idea just how much power she wielded over him.Tonight, as they moved together, he was utterly lost in her. She was made for him, her body molding perfectly to his. Her cries filled the room as he pushed deeper, her voice a soft, sensual melody that made him ache for more.“Desmond,” she gasped, her voice trembling with
Arabella slipped into a silk nightgown and sat at her vanity, tending to her skin. Her fingers moved mechanically, but her mind drifted elsewhere.She thought about her parents. Now that her life seemed to be settling into a new chapter, their absence felt heavier than ever. They had already given their consent to everything, but guilt still gnawed at her. She should have called them.Her behavior over the past weeks felt wrong, selfish even. She needed to go home, to confront the chaos she had left behind: her father, her mother, and the fragile new relationship they were trying to forge. She needed to face it all and find peace with it.Her thoughts shifted back to the present. She was still grappling with the reality of being part of the Williams family—something she had never dared to dream of. Yet, here she was, living in their world.It was overwhelming. Adjusting to their lifestyle wasn’t going to be easy. Fame was a heavy cloak to wear. Everywhere she went, people stared. The
[WILLIAMS MANSION]The Williams family mansion buzzed with lively chatter and the clinking of glasses as family and friends gathered to celebrate. The maids moved briskly, ensuring everything was perfect for the occasion, while the warm aroma of delicacies wafted through the air, hinting at the feast awaiting everyone.Emma’s father and his wife were among the crowd, as were Ethan’s mother and Elizabeth with her husband and two children. Laughter and conversation filled the air as groups of people sat or stood in clusters, catching up on life and exchanging stories.By the pool, Genna’s daughter splashed around with her two friends and Elizabeth’s children, enjoying the sunny day.

PRINCE ETHAN'S POVThe soft sensation of wet kisses woke me, making me squint against the morning light. A lazy smile spread across my face. My girl was busy showering my face with affection. I never realized she loved me this much. Last night, she completely surprised me."Want more?" I teased, my tone playful.Her eyes widened in mock disbelief. "What? No! I'm sore. Besides, you almost killed me last night, and you know it."I chuckled, the memory making my chest swell with pride and a touch of guilt. I'd pushed us both to the edge, exhausting even myself."I'm sorry, baby," I said softly.Her brows furrowed, but her eyes sparkled with curiosity. "For what?""For going too far. It's just... I can't help myself when it comes to you," I admitted, my voice thick with sincerity.Her cheeks flushed a deep pink. My sugar girl. My world."I wanted it too," she whispered shyly, her voice barely audible."Does that mean we can go another round? I'm already rock hard just thinking about you,"
