Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After getting home, I went straight up to my room, ignoring anyone's attempt to talk to me, taking off my damn dress (I was angry, so I couldn’t careless about a dress ) and got into an oversize t-shirt and shorts, which I love more.
I finally plopped into my bed, remembering everything that had just happened a few hours ago and the fact that I would be getting married three weeks from now.Ugh!Great!just great.There won't be any engagement party according to Adeline due to the fact that my so-called husband is too busy to even have the time, so I was given an engagement ring, which was also a family heirloom passed down from generations. It is huge and very breath-taking and definitely causes millions.My phone rang, snapping me out of my thoughts, not bothering to check who was calling."What?" I said, and immediately pitied the person at the receiving end."Whoa whoa, what got your pants in a twist?" my best friend replied, lifting my spirits.“ I'm sorry Vicki, I'm just not in a good mood right now.”" How lame was the dinner. What happened?" she said, turning serious."Turns out I'm getting married three weeks from now."" Wow, that fast."“ Yeah, it's been decided and I totally wasn't expecting it to be this early." sighing, "as much as I don't want this wedding, I need to think about my family and Adeline seems like a nice person."" Who is Adeline?""Adeline Reeves, my husband's mom, since he was too busy to show up."" Oh my gosh, are you getting married to Giovanni Reeves?" She asked excitedly."Yeah", I answered her in a bored tone.Wait a minute... How did she know his name?" How did you know his name?" I asked sceptically. I didn’t remember telling her."Are you kidding me, who hasn't heard of the Reeves, the almighty Giovanni Reeves?" she exclaimed dramatically." I won't ask if I knew, would I?" I answered, rolling my eyes at the process." Where exactly have you been living, Roy? You have been to those fancy dinners your parents go to," she said, talking to me like I was an alien.It is not my fault. I hardly pay attention to anyone at those dinner parties; it's way too boring for my liking and filled with rich, arrogant, snobbish princes and princesses." Your point exactly is what, Vicki?" I asked with a little bit of sassiness." The Reeves are one of the richest families in New York, if not the world," she gushed. "And don't get me started with Giovanni Reeves."Holy shit!It all made sense now, why Adeline looked so familiar. I was so stressed out that I didn't even recognize their name.I can't believe my parents are marrying me off to the richest family in our society and I'm only finding out now.Cue the freaked out scream." Boo, you're so lucky! He is the hottest bachelor on the planet and every girl's dream." I could imagine her drooling."And yet he didn't even bother showing up. What a douchebag". I said angrily." A very hot douchebag," she answered." Who doesn't show up for something as important as this” i rant." I understand, boo, but God! Is he hot?. Where can I find me a hot Giovanni Reeves?" she said, exaggerating a bit, I think, since I haven't really seen him yet." You need to stop calling him that." I snapped a little bit." Absolutely not!. Hot doesn't even begin to describe how good he looks; he is more like a Greek god," she sighed dreamily.I laughed at her craziness." That reminds me, I am going to send you a pic of my engagement ring right now," I said, turning to my camera as I took a pic of the ring and sent it to her."Eeeeeee," my best friend screamed, and I laughed at the precision, but also had to move my phone a few meters away from my ear in order not to go deaf." Is that the Reeves family heirloom, girl?. That ring cost like a ton of money, like tons of millions," she said enthusiastically, wishing I had a little bit of her enthusiasm." I know, but I can't help but feel like they are all hiding something from me.""What do you mean?"" I don't know, it's just a feeling. I’m sure it's nothing. "“That aside, I know how stressed out you are about this wedding and I'm definitely sure it's taking a toll on you. I just want you to know that I've got you boo. Given how stressful today was, why don't you get some rest? I promise you'll feel slightly better in the morning."" Thank you so much, babe. What would I do without you?" I playfully ask her." Nothing, not a single thing, babe, now get some rest. I love you".“aww, Victoria.” I answered in a sing-song voice and laughed as I imagined the scowl that I knew was already on her face. I knew how much she hated being called her full name."I take that back, I completely despise you," she snapped back, and I burst out laughing.I'm so glad I have a best friend like her. She's the only one who gets me." I love you too," I said, and I knew she understood the meaning behind those four words." Whatever , get off my phone, Camilla." I cringe at the mention of my middle name." Touché Vicki, touché."Her laughter was the last thing I heard before I finally hung up.I dropped my phone on the dresser beside my bed, and I was pulled into the wonderland of dreams.Related chapters

I was awoken by the bright ray of sunshine on my face, and I groaned loudly when I realized I didn't put the curtains down before going to bed.Now that I was awake, I couldn't help but think how my life was over since it was my wedding day. I decided to freshen up and wait for the makeup artist and those involved in getting me ready.The makeup artist had done an amazing job on my face, and even my gown couldn't look more beautiful and stunning, but I couldn't bring myself to be happy, even a tiniest bit.After getting ready, I was left alone in the room.The wedding was taking place at the Reeves family Church and the reception was at the Hill's Hotel, which happens to be one of the biggest hotels, and I didn't expect less since they were all against my idea of having a quiet wedding.My mum and Adeline wanted the best of the best for me.I was interrupted by a soft knock on the door." Hey munchkin," my brother said, walking into the room with a smile that I was sure made girls mel

It was finally time for me to go in as the song, "Can't Help Falling in Love with You," was played. I locked my hands with my father before we marched down the aisle with my face down.Unknowingly, I clenched tighter into my dad's arm and only when I felt his warm hand on mine did I look at his side and realize what happened.After whispering " I love you" and hugging me once more, I was handed over to my husband.I had been avoiding any form of contact with him, but when I finally looked at him, I did a double take. I was beyond stunned. Victoria's description did him no justice. He had the most intense blue eyes that I had ever seen and a firm jawline. His chest gave a new definition to broad and his suit fitted him perfectly in every area, and for a moment I wondered how he looked without a shirt.He was beautiful.I know it sounds weird when you call a man beautiful, but I was at a loss for words to describe him.I gave him a small smile, but instead I was met with his emotionles
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER EIGHT
It was silence on the trip from the hotel to his place. I continue to stare out the window, trying to take in the vista of New York City on this beautiful, sunny day.Giovanni breaks the silence near the halfway point of the trip by saying, "You'll meet my son later."I look his way as a result of that.“He had intended to go to the wedding but was prevented from doing so by a school trip.” He claimsI grimaced. Son? That surprises me. I was unaware that Giovanni had one. From what Vicki told me about Giovanni, I recall that neither she nor my parents or his mother mentioned having a son. That is very unusual to me.“ I requested that your parents and my mother not tell you.” He added, as if he knew what was going through my head, "I wanted to be one to tell you.”Why didn't they inform me about something this crucial? Instead, I started by asking, "Is he back now?"Giovanni nods. “ Yes, and he is extremely pleased to meet you”.Due to the fact that I will be residing with them, I made
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER NINE
I was shown to a large room with a magnificent view of the garden by Giovanni. It appeared stronger and more like Giovanni's. Still following him, I said, "Excuse me," as I entered the room further.Giovanni showed me to a large room with a magnificent vista of the garden but the more I looked round the room the more it appeared be muscular and more of Giovanni's taste."hmm, Excuse me," I said as we walked further into the room. my eyes widened when I saw my beauty essentials already placed on the desk. “ Why are my things here, you ask?” I asked Incredulously.Giovanni turned to look at me with a sly smirk on his face. He tilt his head as his smirk stretched. “ What....” I could see the amusement in his face and could tell he takes pleasure in seeing me become irritable. “ Yesterday was an exception, "I see no reason why we shouldn't share a room since we are husband and wife."“ Well bravo to you, you know how to crack a joke. I don’t see us that way and I don’t plan on staying in
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER TEN
Although irritated, I still followed her. I still wasn't prepared to deal with that haughty, domineering man, but I was terribly hungry and I needed food like now. When we arrived at the dining room, Giovanni was already there with Alexander. When he notices me, the boy's face cheers up and a broad smile begins to form on his lips and my mood is somehow lifted by the sight. I gave Alexander a gentle smile and sat down next to him with Giovanni sitting across from me who appeared upset about our brief argument earlier today.Suddenly, i feel a resurgence of my anger. What precisely did he anticipate? Despite the fact that we are married, I cannot just share the same room as him. It's best to ignore him. I think to myself, letting out a sigh.Our dinner, fried pasta with chicken, was served by a maid and i was unable to help but drool at the sight of the meal because it was so delectable, which may also serve as a diversion from Giovanni.We three sat down to dine in silence until Giova
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER ELEVEN
Vicki called to cancel, so our plan fell through. Apparently, something came up with her secret boyfriend whom she refused to tell me about and I didn't have time to question her about it. So we decided to catch up another time.Since I was essentially jobless, I spent my time going around Facebook and Instagram, watching amusing Instagram videos to pass the time, but I ended up dozing off in the process.The soft knocking on the door jolted me out of my sleep. "Roy, may I enter?" From the other side of the door, Alexander's voice could be heard." Come in," I said, sitting up on my bed and the door opened with Alexander walking in."Hey, little man.""Hi Roy," he said, climbing onto the bed to sit beside me.“ How was school today?""It was fine, we had outdoor activities today, so we went to the park," he said excitedly." Really, did you enjoy yourself?" I said in a cheerful voice and he nods.“ I had a lot of fun. I love school. "" I also did like going to school but I doubt not
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER TWELVE
Something heavy was constricting me, causing me to open my eyes and be welcomed by the beautiful features of Giovanni’s face close to mine. When I looked down, I noticed that his hand was on my waist, mine on his too, his foot crossed over mine, and his front touched mine.His body was so close to mine that there was no room between us, and my cheek started to warm up at this.Then, as fast as these giddy feelings hit me, they were gone.Wait a freaking minute! Why am I here?Alexander and I were both sleeping off on the couch in the cinema room, so how did I get here? I couldn’t possibly walk to his room because that would be so embarrassing.My breath hitched, and I snapped out of my thoughts when I felt Giovanni's hand start to move around my body. My eyes widen, and I turn to peek at him and discover that he is still asleep.His hand was perilously close to mine tits, then he did it, cupping my breast and began caressing it. I bit my lower lip and groaned. It didn’t help that I w
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER THIRTEEN
The walk from Giovanni's to the main street of the estate had been a great distance, since his house was the only one that stood in that vicinity, despite this being an affluent neighbourhood.I walked for over thirty minutes before I was able to see other houses and sights, touring the neighbourhood and taking in the beautiful sights. I wasn’t sure for how long I had walked around the area, but after a while, I settled at a park, watching as little children played around with each other, and a smile slowly began making its way up my lips.The sight of it was amazing, making me think about...Okay, snap out of it, Royalty. Right now isn’t the time.I stayed in the park for another hour or two before making my way to the cafe for some coffee and a snack before returning home.Walking into the cafe I had first seen, I let out a sigh, noting how nice it was coming out of the scorching sun. Despite having enjoyed coming out of the house, I was beyond tired; it isn’t easy walking on heels.

I have a caring, loving husband with beautiful children.My mind drifted to my best friend, and I smiled. Vicky and Richard got married two years after Giovanni and I got married. A year later, they gave birth to their beautiful baby girl, Cassidy. Five years ago, she gave birth to their youngest child, Ace.Ariella. Giovanni's mom also found a man of her own, which was kind of weird at first. Giovanni really didn’t like the idea of her dating, saying he didn’t want her to replace his dad, but after Ariella and I had sat him down , explaining to him that she wasn’t replacing his dad and just wanted someone to love her. Giovanni had no other option than to agree, giving his blessing to his mom and Lorenzo , Ariella’s husband.Since Lorenzo has children of his own, a boy and a girl, Giovanni had gained siblings and was protectiv
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER EIGHTY
It's been a week since the baby shower and gender reveal party. Giovanni has been AWOL, always disappearing every single time I set my eyes on him. He wakes up before me and comes back after I have gone to sleep. I didn't know what to think about it and thought of confronting him, but all he said was "I need you to follow me somewhere this evening. Dress formally" before leaving the room.I didn't want to think much about his secretive behaviour, but that didn't stop my mind from running wild. Was it because I had added weight and I didn't look as sexy as I was for him?sighed.!I got up from bed to get ready. I walked to the bathroom, turned on the shower, and immediately hopped in. I had an hour and thirty minutes to get ready.I walked back inside the room once I was done showering and dried off my hair and body. I walked into the closet to look for a dress, shoes, and other necessities, keeping them safely before taking my seat in front of the mirror to have my makeup done.I did

" It's time for your hair and makeup." Vicky said in a song-song voice. I walked into the room with a group of makeup artists.I don't know what she was up to. I haven't left the room since the morning because they won't let me. It's been a week since she came over to visit, and we have been hanging out a lot lately. She and Alexander helped keep me company whenever Giovanni wasn't around.But today I had no idea what was going on. When I woke up this morning, Giovanni's side of the bed was empty, and before I could step out of the room, I saw Alfred standing outside the door. He refused to let me pass, saying he was ordered to keep me inside the room for a few hours, which turned into a whole day because it was five in the evening.Anything I needed, be it breakfast or lunch, was brought up here by a maid. I tried calling Giovanni, but he wouldn't pick up any of my calls, and now Vicky was trying to set me up. But for what exactly?" What is going on?" I asked. Vicky shrugged, not re

The water trickled down my hair to my shoulders and back in the same manner. I washed away the vanilla scented soap off my hair as it stuck to my body. After turning the water off, I stepped out of the shower with a towel wrapped around my body. Things have been going smoothly for a month since I was discharged from the hospital.I stand in front of the mirror, wiping off the fog from it to get a better look at my reflection. I looked at the tiny, hardly visible scar on my forehead andYou could hardly see it except if you were close to me, and my hair plays a major part in covering it up.I walked out of the bathroom and to the closet, looking for a comfortable shirt to put on. It was in the afternoon, and I had already had my lunch. After dressing up, I walked out of the closet to the bed to lie on it. I took out my phone and went through my message box, replying to the messages sent by my mom and brother.I chatted with my mom for some time before she went offline since she had to

Royalty's Pov.My head was aching, and my ears were ringing. I started to move my head slowly. It was still a pain to move. I could hear the voices of someone talking, but not too clearly. I opened my eyes just to shut them back down due to the sun sipping in. I took in a deep breath before opening it again, looking around the room, trying to figure out where I was.The image of the accident replayed in my head. I immediately placed my hand on my tummy. I looked to my side to see Giovanni's familiar dark hair, which seemed to have grown on the bed beside me, while his body was on a chair. He looked fast asleep.I moved my hand slowly, lifting it up to his hair, running my fingers through it, and he groaned in satisfaction." Giovanni," I said, but it was barely a whisper, making it difficult for him to hear. I used my tongue to wet my dried lips before trying again. " Giovanni."His head snapped up so fast, I was surprised it was still attached to his neck. His eyes showed how shocked

2015- Feb-7ROY'S POV“Are we there yet?” I ask again for the thousands of hours while still taking in the scenery.Giovanni chuckles at my question, amused by my curiosity. “ Almost.” He says he is still not going into details as to where he was taking me.He had only told me he wanted to show me something but wouldn’t tell me what it was, despite the fact that we had been driving for at least two hours.We travelled further until we arrived in front of a mansion. The view was breath-taking. I couldn’t stop gazing at the castle-like estate as we pulled up to the house and entered the foyer. We both got out of the car, making our way into the house, and I was once again blown away by the view of the living room. It was beyond lovely. Floor-to-ceiling windows were present. The fireplace and the wall both convey grandeur.“Why are we here?” I ask before I get carried away by my own fantasy.I notice the wooden floor planks have been arranged in a herringbone pattern, which gives the wh

2014-August-23My eyes flutter up, straining at the door, when I notice a shadow lurking outside of it. I got up with a start, wondering if someone had broken in. My parents aren’t at home, and my brother was over at his girlfriend’s place, leaving me alone.Well, not technically alone, since the house was crowded with securities, which was all the more reason to be frightened. How had this person passed through the securities and gotten right at my door?Looking around, I picked up the lamp from beside the bed, slowly making my way to my door, but before I got there, the door knob twisted, and the door opened. I saw a figure walking in and was about to let out a scream when I was able to make out who it was standing in front of me. Giovanni.What is he doing here?How did he get in?“I’m guessing that is for me.” A deep voice asks as the door clicks shut.Since our little escape at the party a month ago, we haven’t spoken much, although he always acknowledges me when we pass each ot
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER SEVENTY FOUR
Standing enthralled with the man in front of me once more, I could not resist his allure and pull. I stood there admiring his broad shoulders and his back to me.The shirt he had on was snug across his broad back as he leans down and rests his forearms on the stone balustrade in the little walk-way path. There is a white cloud of cigarette smoke that rises and is carried away by the wind, but some of it hangs around him, seemingly unwilling to go.I could spend the entire night watching his back, but now is the moment to act. That’s what I’m here for. I can't back down now. I move in closer, making a loud sound as my heels strike the grey slate flooring. My legs feel unsteady, and my heart is pounding almost as loudly. However, I am capable of doing this.I just wanted to say hello. It is not that critical. I force myself to swallow my anxiety and say the first thing that occurs to me, understanding that I need a reason to be here in the first place. "Hello," I murmur. “Can you spa
HIS DEEPEST DESIRE CHAPTER SEVENTY THREE
The heavens!.Giovanni Reeves was even hotter than I remembered him to be.I mean, he’s always had good looks. He’s tall and dark, and he’s quiet in a way that makes him seem intriguing—like he’s got a lot of mysterious things buried inside, just waiting to be released.I’ve always wanted to be the person he shares his hidden thoughts with. That would be such a privilege.I still yearn for that privilege now.He’s older now, obviously. He was eighteen and fresh out of high school the last time I saw him, which had been five years ago. And now seeing him again stirs my heart in a way I never knew possible.I can’t pinpoint exactly which parts of his face have changed because he looks exactly the way he always has, and yet he somehow appears different. More mature. More dignified.His voice has grown deeper, as I realised as I watched him greet a couple of friends.He definitely looks like he belongs under the spotlight, with his solid figure, his strong jaw, and his high cheekbones.Bu
