HIS SECOND CHOICE Nigh Shift
"Shanice, try Cinnamon rolls. I've made them, especially for you since you like them a lot," Serena nudged the tray towards her. "That's so sweet, Rena. But I am avoiding Sugar," Shanice said, making a sorry face. "Not even one?" Serena asked, her face withering in disappointment. She had woken up earlier than usual to make them for her.Shanice shook her head, "sorry." "No problem," Serena smiled despite feeling disheartened. Asher noticed the dejection hiding behind her facade. He reached out with his hand. "Give them to me," Asher snatched the tray from her hand and placed it in front of him. He picked one and chomped down on it. Serena gave him a surprised look. "Are you going to eat them all?" she asked, eyes flickering between the plate and him in confusion. "Yes," Asher confirmed with a nod while chewing on it. He wouldn't let her hard work go in vain. Serena was quick to realize what he was doing. She couldn't help but smile at her adorable husband. "You don't have to
HIS SECOND CHOICE Grief
Serena was in her bedroom, staring at the jewelry boxes in front of her, wondering which one to wear. She was getting ready for Kim's son's birthday party. Even though she had no will and energy to attend any party after her late night shift, she knew she had to make an appearance. Asher had outrightly refused to attend the celebration. But one of them had to be social and maintain relationships. He, for some reason, wasn't fond of her friends either. He hadn't said it outrightly but she had felt the vibes. The only person he liked among her friends was Ayleen. Her thoughts were interrupted by the opening of the door. "You ready?" Shanice asked as she entered her room. She was wearing a plain black bodycon dress that hugged her curves perfectly. "Yeah, almost," Serena replied, before picking up a necklace of ruby from its box and draping it around her neck."Wow. This necklace is a stunner. Where did you get it from?" Shanice asked curious, moving closer. "Asher bought it for me
HIS SECOND CHOICE His Comfort
A wave of anger washed over Asher when he spotted tear tracks on her cheeks. He strode towards her in quick, long strides and held her face up to examine her eyes. As he gazed into her red-rimmed eyes, his jaw clenched tight with vexation. She had been crying. "Who made you cry?" he demanded in a dangerous tone. Who dared to hurt Asher Carter' wife? He will rip the person responsible for her tears to shreds. Serena couldn't help but feel even more horrible after seeing his concern for her. She launched herself in his arms and let it loose. Asher quickly held her, confused as to why she was crying like this. "What happened, sweetheart," he cooed in her all the while stroking her back. Serena shook her head against him but said nothing. Asher was growing anxious with each moment. He couldn't understand what happened to his sunshine."Baby, you are worrying me now," he whispered, feeling restless. Every tear she shed felt like a stab to his heart. He hated it when she cried like thi
HIS SECOND CHOICE Mending
He put on his shirt and trousers to go and check what was wrong with her tap. Before leaving, he walked over to sleeping Serena. Leaning over, he gently pulled her arm from underneath her with a shake of his head. This woman does gymnasium in her sleep and then complains about her aching arms and legs in the morning. After making sure she was tucked in from all sides, he pulled the cover up to her chin and planted a soft kiss on her forehead."I'll be quick," he whispered, nudging his nose with hers. He didn't know in which guest room Shanice was staying but as far as he knew his wife, he was certain she had allotted him the best of all. The room was lit too, confirming his doubt. He stood in front of the door and knocked on it. Hardly a moment had passed when the door opened and Shanice appeared. She was drenched from head to toe. Her see-through nighties barely hid anything. She smiled her most charming smile at Asher and tucked a strand behind her ear, expecting him to check her o
HIS SECOND CHOICE Arguement
Serena was looking for Asher everywhere and finally found him in his mom's room, sitting on the floor with his legs crossed, surrounded by his mom's belongings. Serena leaned against the doorframe and watched him as he gently caressed each of his mother's possessions with a serene expression on his face. Serena was captivated by him. Taking advantage of his oblivion, she quietly took out her phone and snapped a picture of him. He was so lost in his own world that he couldn't sense her presence. Smiling, she pushed off the doorframe and approached him. When she was close enough, she crouched down and hugged him from behind. "I was looking for you," she kissed the side of his forehead and murmured. He gently brought her forward by holding her hand on his lap. A tender look in his eyes as he gazed down at her. She responded with a sweet smile. "Thank you," his voice was heavy with emotions. If not for her, he would have lost his mother's belongings for good. She was a thoughtful an
HIS SECOND CHOICE Making Up
"Are you two arguing because of me?" Shanice questioned, her gaze darting between Asher and Serena. Asher averted his gaze from Serena and stormed out of the bathroom without acknowledging Shanice's presence. "Oh God, I am feeling so terrible right now. I am so sorry, Ren. I shouldn't have asked you to let me use your bathroom," Shanice put a hand on Serena's shoulder and apologized, faking a sorry tone. Serena quickly wiped away her tears and shook her head. "It isn't your fault," she replied lowly without meeting her gaze and made her way out of the kitchen. ....Asher returned home at 1 in the night. He stepped in through the door, carrying his jacket in one hand, only to find her waiting for him in the living hall. Asher halted in his pace when he saw her. Serena locked eyes with him and slowly got to her feet. The air between them was stiff and cold. Serena walked over and stood in front of him. She rose on her tiptoes and sniffed him. Asher rolled his eyes. "I am not dru
HIS SECOND CHOICE Slip
Shanice stared at her reflection in the mirror, a scowl plastered across her face. How could he ignore such a pretty face? How could he be so unmoved by her charm? There used to be a day when he would admire her beauty but now he wasn't even looking her way. She had already sensed his presence when he got inside the bathroom. It was no surprise as she had kept the door unlocked on purpose. She had expected him to give in to her seduction and get under the shower with her but he left. The disappointment she had felt was huge. And he also ignored her when she walked in on Serena and him having an argument. The more he was avoiding her, the more she was tempted to win him back. Her morbid obsession with him was becoming more and more fatal. She needed to move Serena out of their way. She was proving to be a bigger distraction than she had expected in her mission. Asher was his and it was time she claimed what belonged to her."Everything is fair in love and war," Shanice whispered to he
HIS SECOND CHOICE Attempts At Winning Him
Serena fiddled with her fingers while eyeing him with a hesitant look. Her endurance power had crossed all its limits. She needed to go to the bathroom to relieve herself. She couldn't help but feel a little ashamed to ask him to take her to the bathroom even though he had made it clear that he didn't mind carrying her anywhere. She cast another uncertain glance at Asher, biting down on her lip, contemplating if she should disturb him or not. He was sitting behind the desk, eyes centered on his laptop screen. Asher had decided to work from home today to ensure that his clumsy wife was well taken care of and kept safe."Asher," she called. Asher turned his attention towards her. "I need to use the bathroom," she told him, voice laced with hesitance. Asher got up from his chair and strode over to her."Why am I detecting hesitance in your tone?' He asked, hoisting her up in his arms with ease. Serena locked her arms around his thick neck, an apologetic expression on her face. "I am
