Anessa's pov"Soo Nessa,any news concerning both you and Xander" Renna whispered, while winking her eyes in my direction,and taking a sit beside me.It's been two weeks since I agreed to be Xander's girlfriend publicy and about thirteen days since I resigned from the office,so it would not be like I was bridging office policy,by dating my boss, especially the fact that he was supposed to be setting examplesBut it was funny the internet was still buzzing with the news of the proposal even after two weeks,I had expected it to be like every other news that would be dropped after a week but it seemed it was not the case."Well....he asked me on a private getaway this weekend" I said grinning from ear to ear while feeling a flush crept upon my cheeks,as I watched Reena to see her eyes widened."Ohhh my God"she exclaimed while looking at me with utmost shock as I gave her a definitely confused expression.I was still trying to wrap my head around the reason why Reena always
Xander's pov"You really are crazy to think of carrying of this stupid plan of yours"I heard Andrew continue to rant over and over again which made me roll my eyes.It's been over an hour i had told he about the contract and the fake marriage I was planning towards Anessa and he couldn't stop telling me how foolish I was to let my father use me as a puppet once again in my life."I mean,you really don't have to decive her into having a fake marriage with you,you have used her enough" I heard him continue while staring daggers at me"I really do not have a choice as it is Andrew,my hand are equally tied as it is"I replied slightly frustrated at the situation at hand."Ohhh come on Alexander stop with the bullshit already,we both know you could deal with it yourself if you wanted to" he exclaimed while rolling his eyes at me and throwing his hands in the air, something I noticed he always did when he was angry, frustrated or rather irritated over a certain si
Aneesa's povI was currently in my room scanning through my dresses to get the one which would fit in perfectly for the date I had with Williams later in the day"Renna do you think this one would do?" I replied pointing a yellow pleated dress to her direction,and I watch her narrow her eyes in disgust at the dress I was showing her.I was honestly having a 2nd thought about going for this date, because Renna was not making it very easy for me,I had shown her quite a number of dresses and she didn't seem to approve of any."What about this one" I said as I pointed another dress towards her direction, hoping she would approve of it already.This one of the problems between Reena and I which was definitely dominant,we definitely had totally different tastes when it came to fashion and all the thoughts that came with dressing up."Okay,fine....that should work" she said while glancing at it slowly before taking her direction back to her phone,in which she had been scrollin
Anessa's pov."Are you really still going on this weekend vacation and leaving me here all alone?" I heard Reena say while sulking for like the umpteemth time.I was packing my bags for the weekend getaway I had with Xander,as he was supposed to come pick me up later in the day,and Reena would not stop making it known to me that she was not cool with the idea of the weekend getaway."Don't worry,I'll be back before you know it"I said trying to convince her further but failing miserably,as she gave a even sadder expression.Just then I heard my phone beep indicating a message coming in,as I picked up to see it was Xander notifying me that he was already outside my door."He his here"I announced aloud grinning from ear to ear, while packing the last of my luggage and making my way out the door, only for Renna to run past to me towards the door, intending to get to Xander before I had the chance to."Be nice" I shouted after her, hoping against all odds that she wouldn't take the frustra
Aneesa's povI stared in shock with Xander in front of me, looking dashing as usual,with his black tuxedo and his hair gelled to the back neatly,as he knelt down on one knee,with a ring in a box pointed towards me, repeating the same question that I had seen beautifully written on the huge sign behind him."Will you marry me Aneesa?"I heard him ask again,when he saw I was still in shock of what he had just asked me earlier on.I didn't know what to answer to him instantly,I mean I never in my wildest dream expected that there would come a time that I would see Xander kneeling before me proposing marriage to me,it all felt like a dream.Do I answer to him?I'm I really sure that I am not dreaming?I know I love him,but I'm I sure if he does the same too?"You don't really have to if you aren't sure about it" he assured snapping me from my little train of thoughts, while smiling and beaming at me adoringly ."Of course I will" I replied exhaling a breath.I knew I looks kind of rushed,b
Xander's povI was sitting behind my office desk, looking at all the articles that was paraded all over social media,all have different catchy headings,but still attributed to the fact that I was engaged to Nessa.Scrolling through the news section,I saw a particular heading which seemed very annoying,as to the fact that it read: Aneesa Copper who is a gold digger has finally been able to get want she wants by getting married to Xander Weston for his money.I suddenly tightened my fist across the table,I know it didn't make sense for me to feel this way,but I couldn't help it as regards the fact that my conscience constantly pricked me about the fact that I was indeed the one intending to use Aneesa.Shutting my phone cause a lot of headlines also read the same,I decided to pay attention on my important things that concerns my work,but I couldn't help the fact that my mind constantly trailed to the horrible headlines.Suddenly,I heard the door leading to my office burst open, revealin
Xander's povNot long after Diane had left the office with her empty threats,I saw Williams come into the office,and I suddenly felt my head ache just by acknowledging his presence in the room.I hated the fact that I could not see to run away from the scandal even though it was for a second, being that the news was all over social media,and I was also being constantly confronted by people who knew me personally."So I went ahead to propose marriage to her right?"I heard him say not bothering to hid the obvious anger that he was feeling at the moment, which made him just get as much as a nod from me, being that I knew not the slightest thing I had wanted to say."Well why I'm I suprised right?..... always very fancy of you to take only the things you know very well I want for my self....very typical"he said not in any way trying to hide his pained expression at the moment."I really did not do this to hurt you Williams.....I did not even know you liked her that much"I said trying so h
Anessa's point of view"Heyyy hermosa....you doing okay?" I heard Xander ask from the other side and I suddenly felt my cheek heat up with obvious embarrassment from the name he just called me.Xander had made us decide on pet names not long after I had accepted towards his proposal,I still remembered how I had reacted when I heard him ask for us to have a perfect name for each other."So Nessa what pet name am I allowed to call you?" I heard him say while pecking me on the lips for the umpteenth time, making me blush furiously"Hmmm" I said pondering on the perfect name still blushing slightly, feeling that my face was flushed to a lighter shade of pink."Never mind I think I have the best name possible,I'll call you Hermosa" I heard him say which made my cheeks flush up over again."Hermosa?....you there"I heard him ask further, snapping from my little train of thoughts"Yeah I am" I answered while still slightly blushing."So how have you been feeling as regards the news trending
Aneessa's point of view.What the fuck just happened?Why did I chicken out all of a sudden?I thought I was so happy that he made it back alive,so why do I still feel this uneasy with him around me.What exactly is the problem with me?I mean it is still obvious the chemistry is there,I can feel it like a burning flame which is ready to burn anything that comes into its part.But then why was I reluctant to have sex with him,why does my mind still call me back even though it is obvious that my heart still loves for him?I stay at the balcony while looking through thin air and asking myself series of questions as I could not bring myself to understand why I had suddenly chicken out and ran out on him just like that,but it helped me to realise one thing. Eventhough I badly wanted to forgive him,eventhough my heart was calling out for him and I could not thing of a world without him in it,I was still too scared to be in any sort of romantic relationship with Xander,because no matter ho
Aneesa's point of view. I could not help but feel my heart suddenly tighten at the sight before me at the moment. I saw xander along with a lot of tubes connected to his body,almost looked like he was hanging on them for his dear life.No matter how I tried to reason that it was not my fault, I still could not bring my innermost mind from accusing me causing what had happened to him some moments ago." I'm so sorry, I did not mean for this to happen. I'm sorry for only thinking about myself and not even giving the chance to explain things" I say through sobs as I take my hand in his." But please do not dare die on me like this,cause I do not think I would be able to live with myself if you do" I say again, hoping he would hear me even though I was not sure how it would have been possible for him to do that." it's fine,take it easy on yourself okay?" I hear a voice say from behind me and I look back to see it was Brielle, and i could not help but wonder how long that I had been cryi
Xander's point of view " Williams?" I ask unable to believe the fact that my brother had been responsible for the kidnap in the first place." yes brother " he answered while smiling evily at me." what the fuck is the meaning of this!" I shout at the top of my voice at the moment as all I could see was red." ohhh please shut the fuck up Xander. What do you expect? That I stand and let you take what I want again like you do every fucking time?" I hear him say with total anger.Hell, if I was angry at the moment then he seemed to be in a rage for some reason I do not even seem to understand. " what the fuck do you even mean?" " So now you would pretend like you don't know right? Way to go Xander " he said while laughing sacarastically as he saw the obvious confusion in my eyes at the moment. " okay fine I would make it clear to you. Since we have been brothers, all you have done successfully is take. You fucking take and you just expect me to be happy with it every fucking time. Y
Xander's point of view " fuck!" I exclaimed as I punched my hand right into the glass frame in my office thereby drawing blood.I could not believe that I had been so stupid by letting Williams cajole me into manipulating a whole company and to think it had to be Anessa's company of all company there where in the world. I knew I had to do something and I had to do it as fast as possible, but I honestly did not know what it was,cause what could I possibly say or do that would want to make her see me any longer.I just had to mess things up when it just started getting better.I move out of the office in a haste catch up with aneesa to see if there is anything I could do to try to make her listen to me to begin with. Not like I had any reasonable explanation though, but I did not want her to leave me just like that.I go to her office but I did not see any sign of her there any longer,as I moved to her assistants desk."Good day sir. Is there a problem? " I hear her say while smiling
Aneesa's point of viewI could not help the continous tears that kept streaming down my face as I tried so hard to get as far away from xander as I could.How could I have been so stupid? How did I even let him get to me. I should have know a leopard never changes it's spot right?. So how the fuck could I have been such a fool to let him deceive me yet again. I suddenly felt a car trying so hard to overtake me,and I could not help but get infuriated as I wondered what on earth was making the driver drive with so much speed and recklessness, I suddenly stop my vehicle preparing to give whoever it was a piece of my mind,as I get down from my car." what the fuck is wrong with you" I say shouting at the top of my voice,and even a blind man could tell it was merely a wrong transfer of aggression. I was suddenly startled when I saw two men with mask covering there faces and also along with very huge physical build moving towards my direction as I prepared to get into my car and run away
Xander's point of view. I woke up smiling as I look at the very beautiful Aneesa that was currently sleeping peacefully beside me at the moment. I could not help but feel fulfilled that I finally had her all to myself and that there was no restriction hindering us from being together,and then something suddenly hit me as I remembered what I had done to get her to pathner with me to begin with.I knew the last thing I wanted her to do was finding that out,so I knew I needed to do something to urgently stop her from finding that out,and I needed to do that really fast.I felt her stir from beside me,as I watch her beautiful eyes slowly open up as she smiled sweetly at me,which made me remember the events of last night.My eyes travelled down to her nipples which was already stiff from probably being arose and I could not help myself, as I dipped my head down and took them into my mouth,while she moaned beneath me." okay I know what you are up to this morning, but I'm sorry to burst
Aneesa's point of view" you look very beautiful mummy " I hear my son's tiny voice say from behind me as I look at his direction to see him smiling at me.I was still trying so hard to understand why I had agreed to go on a date with him in the first place,but then it was not like I was giving any choice at the moment. " Thank you so much darling " I say while smiles in his direction as I look at the mirror, hoping that I was not looking so overdressed. I heard my subconscious mind speak to me while telling me why I was trying so hard to impress someone I claim to have no liking towards, but I decided to shake the feeling away while trying so hard to ignore it.I hear my phone beep as I look towards it to see xanders annoying name plastered across the screen of my phone." heyyy" I hear his voice say the moment I pick up the phone." I'm on my way" I say simply before hanging up the call,not at all giving him the chance to conclude what he had started to say.I move toward the door
Xander's point of view." heyyy mommy,I had a very nice time with daddy. You should have come with is too" he said happily while grinning from ear to ear,totally oblivious of the growing tension between his mother and I." I suppose you did" she said while smiling and kneeling to his level as she ruffled his hair." of course! dad said we would go out again one of this days,tell me you would come along too. Pretty please " I hear him say to his mother, and I almost laughed because I knew quite well that he was putting Anessa in such a difficult situation and the last thing she wanted at the moment was being in the same space with me." of course darling " I hear her reply through gritted teeth and at that moment I wanted to jump up in the air with joy,I mean it was not my intention to use my son as a ploy to get what I wanted,but that seemed to be the only weak point Anessa seemed to have at the moment. " Thank you momma!" he said while smiling so happily at her" you are welcome. So
Xander's point of view I was constantly patting my legs repeatedly against my marble floor as I could not help but feel nervous about the fact that I got to see my son today.I mean who would have thought that Aneesa would finally allow me meet him and also very easily,considering the fact that she had vowed to do everything in her power to keep him far away from me.I suddenly hear the elevator bell ring as I could not help but take deep breath as I suddenly felt nervous of the fact that I was officially going to stare at my son directly in the eyes,being that the last time I had seen him Aneesa had made sure to get him to avoid me at every way possible. I stood up on my feet still nervous as I saw the elevator open up to one of the two most precious people to me in the world."Hey..yy how a..re you" I say stuttering lightly,looking at the one woman in the world that that made me very nervous no matter how much I try to avoid it." I'm good" she told me with her face clearly ice c
