Kim paced in her room like a soldier on a mission. She had had it, more than had it with Damon and the situation itself. She was worried too because Damon wasn't as receptive as before.This wasn't how she envisioned her plan going during their last meeting. Her plans had definitely gone a few steps back which infuriated her. She and Damon had only met once since the fight and she had a sneaking suspicion that he was keeping her at arm's length.And at the moment, she stared at her phone like it was the cause of all her troubles.She had called Damon so many times in the past hour that it was a miracle she hadn't been blocked yet. Some of the calls had gone through, others had gone straight to voicemail. She sighed deeply as she stared at her blank phone screen. He didn't pick up. Again.It was always a battle just to reach him on the phone and she disliked that fact. She didn't know if he was purposefully ignoring her calls or simply that he wasn't aware or wasn't getting them. She k

"Why did you show up here?" Damon asked her. She could hear the anger in his words but still chose to ignore it."I wanted to see you Damon." She told him and the frown which she thought was already quite visible deepened. Damon shook his head lightly and gave her a pointed stare."You really have lost your mind." He muttered while he still shook his head."No, I'm perfectly sane." She stated. She felt annoyed at the way he stared at her like she had done something completely wrong."I came because you've been avoiding me Damon. We haven't had a proper conversation in so long and I don't like it. So how about we skip this place and go somewhere to catch up?" She suggested with imaginary crossed fingers. She silently prayed and hoped he would agree."Here we go again." He let out then gave her a disapproving look."Can't you get it through your head that I'm not going anywhere with you. We aren't even dating so you must be delusional to suggest that kind of thing." He told her.Just th

FEW MINUTES EARLIERRuby and Jaxon made their way out of the office with huge smiles on their faces. They walked into the elevator and Jaxon smirked as the door closed.Ruby gasped as he pulled her into his arms, he grabbed her ass and placed a sweet kiss on her lips. Ruby’s face heated up as she softly kissed back.She wrapped her arms around his neck and moaned softly as he massaged her ass. “Jaxon, stop it, the door can open any moment now,” Ruby said in between kisses.“It doesn’t matter Gem, everyone is busy at their workstations anyways,” Jaxon whispered and deepened the kiss. Ruby moaned into the kiss.She felt out of breath and tapped Jaxon on the chest. Her chest was heaving up and down as they separated and Jaxon smiled as he looked at her flushed face.“No more kissing,” Ruby whispered.Jaxon groaned as he placed a final kiss on her lips and pulled away. Ruby smiled up at him as she quickly tried to adjust her gown.The elevator made a ding sound and opened. They both walke

Kim had her face pressed into her pastel pink pillow as she cried. She felt like she was suffocating as tears kept falling from her eyes.Kim felt like the whole world was against her happiness, why couldn’t she be happy like everyone else? Why was she always left behind? She felt deserted as she cried bitterly.She felt shattered. She felt like a lost soul as the pain of her broken heart slowly ate her up. She didn’t know what she did to deserve such treatment from Damon.Was it so wrong for her to want something with him? Was there truly such a thing as no strings attached? She should have known better. She should have known that the strings always end up getting entangled.She felt used.It was as if nothing good ever came her way. Everyone always leaves and she’s tired of this roller coaster. More tears streamed down her face as she flipped over.Kim cried harder as she thought about all the events that took place that day. She wondered why Damon did that to her. Was she not good

Kim let Ruby hold her as tears rushed down her eyes in slow streams. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jaxon who had come with Ruby and she was suddenly reminded of why she had gone through so much trouble to be with Damon. And it had all been for naught. It wasn't fair, what did Ruby have that she didn't and why was she the only one to get a rich man?Kim stood frozen as her tears continued to fall. She was so occupied with her thoughts that she didn't notice on time that Ruby had tried to get her attention several times."Kim?" She heard a gentle voice whisper close to her and she was quickly reminded of where she was. Ruby had managed to remove her from the daze she had been and her eyes darted across Ruby's. Kim then glanced over to Jaxon who had remained quiet, then her eyes unexpectedly ran into Ophelia's who stared at her suspiciously. Unlike Ruby who seemed sympathetic."What is it? What happened to you?" Ruby's questions brought a fresh set of tears to Kim as she remem

The tears that had stopped flowing from Kim's eyes resumed their descent down her cheeks. Her tears though, were not from being sad but served the purpose to guilt trip Ruby into doing what she wanted."But Kim, you can't really mean that," Ruby put in then gave her a worried look."Of course I mean it. You are a bad sister who never takes her younger sister's side. I just wanted you to talk to Damon for me, I didn't ask you to build a rocket or something." She fired back with an annoyed look.Her eyes searched Ruby's and all she could see was the hurt in them. Not what she was going for but she could make it work, Kim thought."You couldn't even have said just no and ended it there. No, you had to tell me all the reasons why you said so and that made me feel inadequate and childish." She told Ruby in a whimpering voice.Kim wasn't happy with the way things had been playing out so far. First, she and Damon had argued and then he had unexpectedly ended things with her. And now, Kim fou

Ruby was worried throughout the ride home. She felt helpless that there was nothing she could do to ease her sister's pain.She knew how painful and draining it was to be left behind by someone we loved. She had almost gone crazy the day she thought Jaxon would be getting rid of her, so she could just imagine what Kim was going through.She sighed as she stared out the window. Jaxon glanced at her dejected look and shook his head. He placed his hand on her lap and Ruby turned around to face him.“Stop worrying Gem, she is going to be fine.” Ruby sighed as the warmth of his hand slowly dipped into her skin. She placed her hand on his and intertwined them.“I know that but I can’t help it. This is the first time I’ve seen her so distraught and hurt over a relationship.” Jaxon gently squeezed her hand and Ruby smiled at the comforting feeling.“A relationship?” Jaxon’s brows furrowed. He knew his friend long enough to know that whatever he had with Kim was not a relationship.“She should

Ruby felt anxious as she lay down on the bed. Jaxon was taking a shower and she was left alone with her thoughts. She kept looking at her phone expecting a reply from Kim but there was still nothing from her side.Ruby started to feel worried. Her heart started beating faster and she could feel the anxiety increasing. Her stomach started to form tight knots, she didn’t want to be negative but she felt like something was wrong with Kim.She hurriedly opened her phone and dialed Kimberly’s number, the phone rang and Ruby felt like her heart would beat out of her chest as the phone kept ringing.Her thoughts are a whirlwind of the worst-case scenarios, her imagination running wild with images of doom and disaster. She closed her eyes to clear her mind.She dialed the number again and her chest tightened with a sense of foreboding, her heart beating erratically like a trapped bird fluttering against the cage of her ribcage.She anxiously bit her nails and just as she was about to give up

Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Epilogue
Epilogue."Avery, be careful with your brother, he's still too small to do that," I told my five-year-old daughter.Her brother, Jeremy was a bustling toddler who was a few weeks away from turning a year old, but even a bouncy castle was a bit too much for him."Mom, what if he goes on for a little while.""How about you both go play in the playpen instead, hmm. Where's Emerald?" Her sister wasn't anywhere I could see but I had an idea of where she could be."With Dad," Avery said then guided her brother towards the playpen.Sure enough, just out of my line of sight, Emerald was playing with Jaxon. A smile tugged at my lips as I watched them, I didn't bother interrupting and strolled back into the villa to get us some lunch.Five years might be a long time for some people but to me, it had gone by in the blink of an eye.If I had told my younger self that she would get married to one of the richest men in the country and go on to have a beautiful family, she would have probably called

"Jaxon, they are so beautiful," Ruby whispered to him as they watched their daughters sleep. It all still felt unreal to her. Just a few days ago, she still had both of them in her stomach and she had been as large as a whale. But now, she had two little humans who she called her own children.They were both their father's daughters. They had the same slightly tan skin as Jaxon with blond hair. They were identical with the exception of their eyes.One had really deep blue eyes like her and the other had lighter blue eyes like Jaxon."They are." He said."Shh, be quiet or you'll wake Emerald up," Ruby hissed as she glanced at the thankfully still-sleeping baby. Emerald was his mini-me, her eyes were the same shade as his and she had a knack for waking up at the slightest noise. Ruby knew it had been a nightmare to get her to go to bed the first two nights they had come home."Are you sure Avery won't be the one to wake up?" He said, then pointed towards the baby who was moving a lot i

The food Jaxon and Ruby were having for dinner didn't sit well with Ruby. Nothing seemed to entice these days. She was really nauseous and if she took another bite, she was sure she was going to throw it all up. Her stomach was basically at her throat so eating had become quite the hassle. And the pain she was feeling didn't help her feel any better."Something wrong with the food?" Jaxon asked, a brow raised as he popped a piece of meat into his mouth."Everything is." She sighed. She had been pushing the food around her plate for a few minutes now."So you want something else?... Are you okay, you look a bit unwell, is it the meat?" The space between Jaxon's brows furrowed as he asked her."It's not... Maybe... I don't know. I'm just feeling a bit of pain in my stomach." She told him, and as if to make a point, a sharp pain stung just below her belly button and she leaned over and expelled a deep breath."Gem?" Jaxon's voice wobbled out."Just... Give me a moment." She took deep br

Ruby and Jaxon entered the doctor's office hand-in-hand, their anticipation was not hidden as they waited for the moment when they would learn the gender of their unborn child. Ruby was vibrating with excitement and she felt like she couldn’t stand still anymore.Jaxon was no different but he was doing a great job concealing his excitement as he stared at his smiling wife.The doctor greeted them with a smile. She guided them to the exam table and started arranging the equipment for the ultrasound.“Please lay down on the bed Ruby and lift up your shirt.” Jaxon helped her to gently lay down and lifted her beautiful maternity gown. He smiled down at her and sat beside her.Ruby excitedly squeezed his hand that was in hers and Jaxon placed a soft kiss on her forehead in return. The female doctor smiled at their interaction. She could feel the love rolling off them in waves and she felt happy for them."Are you ready to find out the gender?" the doctor asked, a hint of excitement in her

Months have passed and Ruby couldn’t be happier. Things have been going well and life has been good and most importantly peaceful. It was everything she had ever wanted and today was a special day. They would finally know the gender of their baby and Ruby was excited. She couldn’t wait to know if she would be having a little prince or a beautiful princess. She smiled softly as she caressed her protruding baby bump.Ruby’s eyes were filled with a maternal glow, a soft, radiant light that speaks of the joy and anticipation that filled her heart as she gently caressed her stomach.She was standing before the large mirror in their room wearing black shorts and a sports bra.Her lips curved into a smile as she turned sideways and admired the size of her stomach, she couldn’t believe she had life growing within her. Ruby was grateful for this gift. She continued to gently use her fingers to trace her stomach as if she was touching her child. She gazed into the mirror with a look of wonder

Jaxon removed Ruby's hot mouth from him because he didn't want this to be over so soon. He wanted to do so much more.He helped Ruby to her feet and his hands immediately found her plump cheeks. He grasped them tightly, his fingers digging into her flesh then pulled her closer to him until she straddled him on the bed.His lips settled on hers again and Ruby opened her mouth to accommodate him. His tongue clashed against hers over and over again in a duel which he won. He licked around her mouth and Ruby opened it more to him as she let out a loud moan which he swallowed. He bit her bottom lip and sucked it lightly between his lips and Ruby hissed in response.His tongue, teeth, and lips all worked in unison to bring Ruby to a quivering mess of nerves. He pulled away long enough to admire the way her lips were pink and swollen. She looked very flushed, her cheeks colored and eyes glazed over in passion or need. Maybe both, since he couldn't quite tell.He placed a barely there kiss on

The clear sky had faded to a dark blue as the city shifted from day to night life. As Jaxon drove through the roads, he could see some night clubs that had started to open and some people on the streets were dressed elegantly for dinner.Jaxon was calm, or as calm as one could be after he had successfully dealt with the situation concerning June. He didn't want to think of it any longer, all he wanted to do was go home and be with his Gem.He pulled up outside the house and strolled in with the intention of surprising Ruby. But that plan changed when he got a whiff of a heavenly scent coming from the kitchen. Was that steak? The scent of roasted vegetables wafted through the air as well and he wondered what was going in the kitchen. And was Ruby making dinner?He was the one primarily in charge of cooking because Ruby didn't do so often. And he couldn't blame her either because she had a strong fear of fire and it would be cruel of him to put her in a place where she would frequently

June shivered in fear and her heart beat accelerated as she looked up at Jaxon’s darkened eyes. He looked livid.June felt like she was about to faint under his harsh eyes, he was glaring at her with so much anger that she felt light headed from the intensity of the look. Her heart was beating so wildly that it felt like she was running a marathon.June closed her eyes and tightly clasped her hands together on her laps. She took a shaky breath and gathered the courage to repeat herself.“I apologize for locking her up in the restroom on Keith’s birthday… I just wanted to show Keith that I was the better match and she was a disappointment.” June muttered and Jaxon’s nose flared up in anger. He felt like punching her right now.He had accused Ruby of lying to him that day and they even had a fight all because of her. He angrily slammed his hands on her table and June’s eyes started to fill with unshed tears as she shivered in fright.“So it was you! It was all you! How dare you! How cou

"When did you find out about the contract?" He asked and June stilled."I don't -""Don't start with that bullshit talk of you not knowing what I'm talking about. You know exactly what I'm saying and I'm not going to repeat myself." He said annoyed."I- I" she stammered and Jaxon's nose flared in irritation."Oh, and I don't have all day so don't beat around the bush. I would advise you to stop acting like a weak lamb because I know what you did. I know about Serena." He told her and watched as June's eyes widened in shock. June remained silent for a while and her mouth kept opening and closing like a fish."I-i can explain." June let out slowly after she managed to find her voice."Knock yourself out. Don't leave out any details when you're "explaining" yourself, and just so you know, I'm not going to take things lightly with you. Not after what you did. And be careful how you answer this question because your life and company are at stake here.” Jaxon warned.June was taken aback, h
