Ruby had been in bed for the past week, but all she could do was smile, unlike most sick patients who got tired of being bedridden after just a few days.Hers has been an amazing experience so far. Even though the pain could get unbearable at times, Jaxon was always there to make it all better.For the past week, he has taken some time off from work and has been taking care of her every need. She feels like a fragile doll that is unable to do anything by herself because of how much he dotes on her.He was always around from when she woke up to when she would go back to sleep and she couldn’t help the sweet smile that made its way to her face.Jaxon was always more than willing to do anything within his peer to help her get better. He personally prepared all her meals and acted as her crutches whenever she wanted to stroll around the house.They have had so many peaceful moments and have created so many amazing memories within this short span of time.Ruby didn’t know what good deeds s
The weather was lovely today. Clear skies, warm sun, and mild traffic. It was the perfect day for spending time out in the sun and doing outdoor activities. Too bad Kim was in a sour mood and the last thing on her mind was anything fun. It irritated her that even the weather seemed to be in a happier mood than she was.It had been two weeks since Ruby fell down the stairs and broke her leg, and then, she had thought everything was going in her favor. They weren't. In all the time that passed, her plans had been futile and no matter how hard she tried to get the ball rolling, it remained where it was.She had never known frustration like this existed. But these weeks had taught her it did, along with some virtues. Kim had not thought that patience was a word that would ever be associated with her but she had continued to surprise herself.She had patiently tried to get closer to Jaxon but no matter what she did, it would not happen. The whole reason why she had planned the accident
Jaxon had told Kim he knew she was the one behind the accident. Kim had thought long and hard of how that could be and the only thing that came to mind was that Ruslan had told him something because he was the only other person present at the time of the fall. Could he have seen the oil?Kim didn't entirely believe Jaxon because if he knew she was responsible, why leave her in his house where she could potentially do more harm? It didn't make sense. So she decided to believe that he was calling her bluff and didn't exactly know if she was the one responsible.He had also told her to stay away from him which she was not going to do. He'd yelled at her too, but she did not let it deter her because she knew she hadn't made him fall for her charms yet. When she did, she would be sure to make him apologize. With a little material gift of course. A million dollars wouldn't hurt anybody and it certainly wouldn't hurt his bank account.She now knew, thanks to the fiasco that morning, that
Ruby was feeling so much better as she snuggled closer to Jaxon. She smiled at the warmth that was radiating off him and Jaxon smiled as he gently massaged her back.He applied slight pressure in his palms as he massaged her sore muscles, and Ruby smiled at the soothing sensation; it felt so refreshing, and she wanted more.“Do you like that?” Jaxon asked softly and Ruby moaned in reply. Jaxon smiled as he continued to work his hands on her back.“It’s so nice, it makes me want to take a walk,” Ruby mumbled.“Why do you want to take a walk out of nowhere?” Jaxon stopped what he was doing and tilted his head to the side.“The weather feels right, I want to stretch my legs and breathe in some fresh air.” Ruby smiled happily as she sat up on the bed.“Baby, your legs haven’t healed up completely; let’s just stay in bed, okay?” Ruby’s smile morphed into a blank stare as she glared at Jaxon.“I want to take a walk babe. Are you coming or not?” Ruby asked blankly.“Fine, but you won’t go a
Ruby had a soft smile on her face as she happily mixed some vegetables in the pot and Kim couldn’t help the anger and jealousy she felt at that moment as Ruby spoke about her husband while preparing food for him.“I can’t even explain how or why he loves me so much! I seriously feel like I’m the luckiest woman alive.” Ruby exclaimed as she added spices to the vegetable mix. A cloud of steam rises from the bubbling pot on the electric stove and a sweet, savory aroma filled the room.“I’m happy for you.” Kim gritted out through clenched teeth. Ruby was clueless to the change in Kim’s voice as she continued rambling.“I’m happy too. After everything that happened, I’m finally happy with the man of my dreams! I can’t wait for you to find your own Mr. Right.” Kim felt like gagging.“I can’t wait to get the right man too,” Kim smirked as she brought out a tiny sachet from her pants pocket and brought out a small white pill.She walked towards the glass of freshly made juice that Ruby had b
"Jaxon," Kim whispered softly. If Jaxon hadn't been in a sorry state, he knew he would have strangled her. Something was very, very wrong, he could feel it. And seeing Kim dressed in an even more scandalous nightwear than last time, he was positively sure she had something to do with it."I'm here if you want to, you know..." She told him, then trailed off. Jaxon couldn't believe his ears. How could one be so shameless to stoop to a level this low? From the way he was sweating, and not to talk about how hot and bothered he was, he knew she must have slipped an aphrodisiac in his meal. A powerful one at that, because he was in dire need of a woman and he was seriously fighting the urge to drag the nearest woman upstairs and have his wicked way with her. That said woman being Kim somehow deterred him and reeled in his senses."Come now Jaxon, I know you want to. Look at the way you're so sweaty, and let's not talk about what's going on ..." Kim boldly put her hands on his chest then
Jaxon had to hand it to Ruslan. He had gotten the driver, and they would come straight to the house and get here in no time. He was surprised Kim hadn't looked for him because he'd been gone for at least ten minutes. Or did she think he had gone to get some "toys" to play with her? He hadn't missed the comment of her calling him kinky when he blindfolded her. He simply chose to ignore it and let her believe whatever it was she wanted because he definitely wasn't going to sleep with her as she thought.The door opened and he looked up to see Ruslan and the driver enter. The driver was a decent-looking young man with an average build. He was fairly tall and coupled with the fact that Kim was blindfolded, he was positive she wouldn't be able to tell the difference because he was taller and broader than the driver.He signaled the driver to come closer and the man rushed to his side."Sir, you called?" Jaxon nodded in response then went straight to the point."Go upstairs and head tow
Jaxon’s blood was boiling as he recalled the incident that occurred the previous day. He was filled with anger and hatred.The only thing that was rolling in his head was different ways to torture and kill Kim for even thinking of drugging him.He felt disgusted. How could she ever think of doing that to him?He has had his suspicions about her since Ruby fell down the stairs and the drug incident proves that she was guilty of that.He couldn’t wrap his head around how one could be so selfish and cruel to one's own family. He felt heartbroken for Ruby. How would she feel when she found out that the sister she loved and doted on was the cause of her pain? How would she feel when she found out that her only family wanted to snatch her husband from her?Jaxon could not stand to be under the same roof as Kim or he might end up killing her out of anger.Ruby was surprised when Jaxon suggested that they should travel out. She didn’t want to at first cause she felt like she had been holding
