HIS SECOND CHOICE Lost And Found
Asher didn't have to search too hard for the receipts. He found them crammed up in the drawer of his dad's work table. He read the buyer's name and realised his dad sold everything to one person. After taking a quick photo of the receipt, he put it back inside the drawer and left. Did you find out?The message was from Serena. He had just woken up and checked his phone in hope of finding a message from Shanice. But there was none except for Serena's. With disappointment, he typed a yes. She then told him to meet her at the bus stand. Asher sat up to type as it was going to be a long text. He tried to dissuade her from coming as he didn't want her to skip classes but Serena was adamant. Eventually, he had to give in. Serena was perched on the bench, looking fresh and bright like usual. A smile found its way on his lips at her sight. He pushed his glasses up and lengthened his strides. "What a beautiful morning, isn't it?" Serena sprung to her feet and chirped. Asher could see her e

"No one," Serena tried to snap up her phone from his hand but in vain. It was impossible to free it from Asher's angry clutch. "Who is it, Serena?" he asked again, sounding like a ticking bomb that can explode any moment now. "It doesn't concern you. Now give me my phone back," she told him."If you won't tell me then I will find out myself. I am calling the person," he put in her passcode, causing her eyes to grow wide in horror. She was truly regretting sharing her passcode with him right now. He thumbed the number and the screen changed into calling. It prompted her into action. Without wasting a second, she reached out to cut the call but Asher prevented her by raising the phone out of her reach. Serena pleaded with him with her eyes but he didn't relent. "It's Deshmond, okay. Just cut it," Exasperated Serena, annoyed by his unyielding nature. Why does he have to know everything about her? Serena loved this boy with all her heart but sometimes she just wanted to hit his head

Everyone's attention was centered on the gorgeous couple in the basketball courtyard. Reed was whirling a girl by holding up ass while the girl was laughing her melodious laughter with her arms locked around his neck. She was staring lovingly into Reed's eyes. Just like she used to stare into Asher's. Everything slowed down around Asher as he watched Shanice cuddling with another man. Denial was his first response until he couldn't deny it any longer. It was her. She was clearly enjoying herself wrapped inside his arms. The sight made his insides ache with a searing intensity and yet he couldn't tear his eyes away from them. As if sensing his gaze on her, Shanice suddenly looked in his direction. Their eyes locked and her smile faded instantly. She paled as if seen a ghost. Their stare-down stretched on for a long moment until Asher decided he had enough. Clenching the wooden heart tight, he spun and stormed off. "Ash....Ashe..please stop," Shanice implored him, running after him.

"Why are you ignoring me?" Serena blocked his path and demanded. Today, she had come to the lake where he worked to get the answer to her question. "Why are you here?" he questioned sternly. Serena's face visibly fell. His callous tone made her want to cry but she put it together and lifted her chin. "To know why are you ignoring me," she answered persistently. His jaw twitched in irritation. "I am not ignoring you. Now leave. It's my work time," he answered and was turning away when Serena grabbed his hand, making him stop. "Did you have an argument with your dad? Have I done something wrong?" she asked softly, desperate to know why he was so sad. Asher balled his hands into a tight fist. She noticed that but it didn't waver her determination. She stepped around to face him. Her gaze warm and tender as it wandered his face, expressing profound fondness. If he could see himself through her eyes, he would know how precious he was for her. "You can share anything with me, Asher. I
Last Updated : 2023-10-01HIS SECOND CHOICE Rejection?
Serena was thinking about skipping school today. For one, her head was aching as she couldn't sleep whole night and secondly, she was nervous. Mind-numbing nervous. Today, he will either accept or reject her, and either way her life will take a drastic turn. It all happened at a super fast pace. She had no idea what came over her yesterday that she blurted it all out. She didn't mean to spring it on him, not when he was already stressed out. He must have felt attacked. What if he rejected her in his overwhelmed state? The possibility of him breaking off their friendship too was scaring her the most. She didn't want to lose their precious friendship. "Get a grip, Serena," she coached herself, feeling her anxiety shooting up. If it was some other situation she would have called Asher as he always knew how to pacify her but here he was the source of her anxiety. She decided to call Shanice. Maybe, talking to her would calm her down a bit. Shanice didn't answer her call. She then reach

His mesmerizing green eyes were centered on her. Serena gulped. Her heart was running miles per second, close to ripping out of her chest any second. His undivided attention felt too heavy to bear right now. She would have stood up if not for her wobbling legs. Shanice and others were eyeing him, intrigued. It would be a real shame if he rejected her in front of so many people. Serena wouldn't have a face left to show then. "Asher," Serena breathed through the knot in her throat. Her eyes were wide in surprise, her lips slightly parted, and her brows slightly up. She was afraid of being rejected in front of everyone. He wouldn't do that, would he? Her last BF had slapped her in the face and called her a worthless whore in front of several students as revenge after she broke up with him. Years had passed but the things he had told her were still embedded into her brain. He said she should be happy that he was dating her for she was too ugly to attract attention from boys. That no one

"Why are you going alone? Where is Asher?" Shanice asked, feigning nonchalance. If not distracted by the question, Serena would have noticed implicit spite in Shanice's tone. Her smile dimmed for she didn't know where was Asher. He hadn't even said anything about their date. "He had some urgent work after school," Serena replied. Shanice hummed. "Bummer! I thought he would take you out on a date. I mean Boys usually want to be with their girls as much as possible. I wonder what could be more important than you?" Shanice remarked, staring ahead at the road. Serena was just as clueless. Asher hadn't told her why he left today earlier than usual. If she didn't know better she would think he was ignoring her. But why one would ignore someone right after asking them out. Makes no sense. She really was also expecting some together time after school. Even a walk to bus stand together would have meant a lot for her. So yeah, it had disappointed her a lot when he left school without eve

"Isn't it too revealing?" Serena asked, gazing down at her dress with a small frown. The dress was loud red and its sweetheart neckline was low enough to expose the beginning of her swell. "Honey, you are going on a date not to offer prayer in some church. The shorter it is, the hotter it is," Shanice dismissed her concern and got back to the task of applying blush on her cheeks. "Actually, Asher doesn't like short dresses," Serena shared her concern with Shanice. Shanice's forehead puckered. Asher doesn't like short dresses? That was new. He never had qualms with her wearing short dresses. In fact, the shorter her dresses got, the more pleased he became. She was convinced Serena was making up excuses to get rid of the dress. "So, you wanna go on the date in a white robe, carrying a bible? Would he like that?" Shanice questioned while applying the mascara. Serena shook her head. That would be extreme too. "No, but this dress is.." a loud sigh from Shanice cut her off. Shanice dro

HIS SECOND CHOICE Epilogue
Four Years Later After finishing her shift, Serena returned home only to find Asher singing Brianna a lullaby and rocking her gently to sleep. Dream sweet dreams for me Dreams sweet dreams for you...... Her lips curved into a smile as she leaned against the doorframe and watched him lulling their daughter to sleep. Soon tears welled up in her eyes as she realised how perfect their life was going. Bree was lost in her dreamland but it seemed Asher was not ready yet to part from her so he kept singing and rocking her. Wiping away her tears, she walked inside letting him sense her presence. Asher turned around. His eyes lit up when he saw her. "She is asleep," she told him, smiling. His features softened. "I know," he replied. He just didn't want to let go of her. "How was the work?" he asked as he laid little Bree in her cradle. "Same usual," she answered, watching him. "How was your day," Serena asked. She felt so lucky to have Asher. He was working from home for over a
HIS SECOND CHOICE Always Together
The verdict was out. Shanice was sentenced to 16 years in prison for all her crimes. Her career, her life was over. Mr. Cooper broke the news to Asher. Asher felt bad for Mr. Cooper but chose not to pick on his wounds. He thanked the attorney and invested in his firm generously for his help as Mr. Cooper refused to accept a fee from him. After wrapping up his meeting with him, Asher picked up his book on parenting and resumed reading. He leaned back in his chair, put on his glasses, and got to work. The word "excitement" did not measure up to what he was feeling. His wait was almost over. In just a few days, he would be a dad. He will be holding his own child in his arms. It just felt unbelievable. If ten years ago someone had told him that one day his life would be full of joy, happiness, and laughter, he would have beaten the shit out of them for mocking him. His life had taken such a beautiful turn. It was all because of his sweet angel. Serena. She was the source of his happine
HIS SECOND CHOICE Claim Of Love
Their body moved together in melodious harmony, pushing and pulling like a magnet. Asher grabbed her face close and deepened their kiss. Saliva dripped down the corner of their mouth, their eyes closed but their senses hyperaware. He could taste passion on her tongue and by God, he was hooked. The lashing of her tongue against his sent thousands of volts of current down his veins. No matter how many times he fuck her, it was still not enough. He craved their proximity like a man craves oxygen. Her sweet moans, feeble gasps, and innocent response fed his insatiable hunger for her. Time stood still as they explored each other's bodies, their connection growing deeper with every passing moment. Those wet sounds turning louder with his every vigorous stroke. Breaking the kiss, he buried his face into the crook of her neck. Her ass was perched on her study desk and he was standing between her thighs. The day after tomorrow was her viva and instead of studying, here she was indulging in ca
HIS SECOND CHOICE Fight And Love
Serena learned morning sickness isn't limited to the morning only. It continued all day long and on top of that, she had also developed a strong aversion to non-vegetarian food which meant Asher couldn't enjoy them either. Her hormones were like a roller coaster, constantly shooting up and down, affecting her mood. Asher was having a hard time keeping up with her mood swings. One moment she would be laughing, and the next, she would be crying like a baby, leaving Asher utterly confused.The doctor had warned him beforehand about her coming mood swings. She said pregnancy does it to women and more so in her case as her body was working extra hard to keep the baby. He had not expected it to be this bad when the doctor had told him that it would be "bad." The other day she kicked him out of their room only because he fell asleep before her. He had to take refuge in the guest room that night. Her temper is always at the boiling point but what bothered him the most was her physical distre
HIS SECOND CHOICE Hearing
"You don't have to go," Asher tried to dissuade Serena from accompanying him to the court. He was reluctant to take her along as he didn't want Shanice's evil eyes to touch her or their baby. Serena firmed the knot of his tie and angled her head up to meet his eyes. He was looking down at her with concern. "You are worrying for nothing. No harm can touch me as long as you are by my side," she reassured him. She didn't believe in herself as much as she believed in him. She had no concern for her safety for she knew Asher wouldn't let anything happen to her or their baby. Besides, Shanice would be in shackles. There is no way for her to inflict harm on them. And Serena was done being in the background."You've already made up your mind, haven't you?" he questioned with a sigh. Serena's smile widened in response."Yes. I am coming," she chirped, giving a light pat on his chest. ......Mr. Cooper was already at the court when they arrived. The color had returned on his face but it had
HIS SECOND CHOICE Make Up
Serena woke up to something wet trailing down her neck. Even in a half-asleep state, she recognized his soft yet possessive touch. A moan escaped her mouth as she tried to scoot away only to be pulled back into the safety of is embrace. His arms were coiled around her, keeping her closer. She had missed a morning like this. A sense of serenity washed upon her.Her eyes fluttered open, greeted by the sight of a clear, blue sky from the window. The wet sensation was now replaced by ticklish fluff of kisses. She gazed out at the clear sky all the while savoring the feel of his lips against her skin. As he had shattered the door, nothing was stopping the chilly gusts from invading the room. The curtains caught in the breeze fluttered and billowed. However, they remained shielded by the covers- naked and tangled beneath it. "Good Morning," he breathed hotly against her skin, causing her to shiver in delight. His bedroom voice was a huge turn-on. What felt like an eternity, she was finall
HIS SECOND CHOICE Long Awaited Night
In a blink, Asher was in front of her. Before she could comprehend anything, he gripped her hair in a vice-like grip, forced her face up, and slammed his mouth against hers. Biting and nibbling, he mauled her soft flesh with his brutal kiss. He sank his teeth into her sweet flesh, causing blood to ooze. Now that felt like a bloody kiss. The kiss was so brutal yet so intense that she couldn't help but feel delirious. His hand pulled taut on her hair, eliciting moans from her, the sound intertwining with their passionate kiss. Asher devoured her mouth with an insatiable hunger as though he was an addict and her sweet juicy lips were his drug. His free hand went around and unhooked her bra with a sense of urgency. He needed to get rid of all these clothes between them. Impatient for her touch, he seized her wrist and made her rub his bulge through the fabric. An animalistic grunt tore from his throat at her first caress. His cock had suffered the most after his heart during their separ
HIS SECOND CHOICE Teasing Him
An idea occurred to Serena, causing a mischievous glint to enter her eyes. Asher oblivious to the little plan brewing in her mind continued to smoke with his back on her. The familiar scent of tobacco surrounded him. It was after a very long time he was smoking. He wouldn't lie one of the reasons he was smoking right now was to vex her. She didn't like him smoking. The air outside was chilling but as the tobacco bled into his veins, he didn't feel it as bad as it was. A rustling noise from inside caught his attention, causing his ears to perk up. Curious, he turned around only to discover she had pulled aside all the curtains from the glass walls that separated the balcony from the room. He located her at the end of the wall, carrying a suggestive glint in her eyes as she drew aside the last curtain. Asher raised his brows in skepticism, her body language felt different. She coyly bit down on her lip and started walking backward, maintaining their eye contact. On her way, she turn
HIS SECOND CHOICE Letter Of Blood
"Did you write it with your blood?" she asked in disbelief, her eyes bulging out of her sockets. Asher grinned proudly."Yes," he answered. Serena raised her gaze to him. Seeing no expectant smile on her face, his own grin shrunk. "Are you a kid? Why would you do this?" she asked, baffled. Kids do these kinds of stuff in school. What happened to his rationality?A frown settled over his lips. "You wanted it," he answered, unsure why she was unhappy. Didn't she want him to write a letter to her? It had taken him a lot of effort to write it. He literally spilled his blood for it. This wasn't the reaction he was hoping for. His answer set her off. She narrowed her eyes at him. "When did I ask you to write me a letter with your blood?" she snapped, leaving Asher with no defense. Asher was still confused as to why she was focusing on unnecessary stuff and not reading the letter. She looked down at his hand and seized it. With a long sigh, she upturned his hand to find a bandaid on his
