"Hello my sweet coconut." A familiar husky voice came on the line and Laura gasped.

"G-Greg?"

Laura immediately felt Lizzy's excited gaze on her as she listened with ardour with her hand tucked beneath her jaw.

"The very one, baby." Greg replied, his voice laced with amusement.

"H-how did you get my number?"

Laura asked.

"I have my ways darling, how are you?"

"I'm...fine?" She voiced out, still shocked that he called her.

He chuckled. "You're not sure if you are?"

"I'm fine...fine thank you."

"I promised to call you the next day."

"Why tonight then?" She asked regaining her composure.

"This is almost 1am, Miss. I made that promise yesterday." He replied triumphantly and she said nothing, in embarrassment. "And I didn't expect you'd be up at this hour. Or did my call wake you from your beauty sleep?"

She rolled her eyes. First Lizzy, now Greg.

"No I am not sleeping yet." She replied quietly.

"Mm, someone is missing me."

Greg purred.

"What? No way! There's nothing there to miss

    "Your father called this morning to tell me to permit you to go to a dinner date with a man." The two girls froze as they looked at each other, eyes wide as a result of the just uttered words that came from Celina."Hello? Are you there?" Celina asked from the other end of the line. "Yes, yes I am." Laura replied breathlessly. "Who is this man, Laura?" Celina asked in a creepily low voice. "I...I don't know what you are talking about." Laura muttered. "Don't play games with me, child!"Celina exclaimed harshly. "I'm not playing any game with you!" Laura exclaimed as well. "Then tell me who he is!""I just told you, I don't know!""You are a liar!""I don't know why you are saying this but dad didn't even call me!"She heard Celina take a deep breath. "Get back to the house immediately."Celina said. "But...""Now!"And the call ended. "That witch." Lizzy commented. "Now she's been all bossy.""And it seems I have no choice but to obey the boss." Laura said with a grimace.

    Laura stood before the full length mirror gaping at the reflection that gaped back at her. She couldn't believe her eyes. The ordinary Laura had been transformed into a very glamorous and gorgeous Laura. Lizzy had always been a good makeup artiste. "I look..."She was lost for words. "Extremely beautiful, I know," Lizzy finished for her. "Gorgeous, sumptuous, delicious, luscious, glorious, lustrous-""Lizzy!" Laura rolled her eyes. "You sure have a way with words."Lizzy grinned. "I know, right? But really baby gurl, you look extremely...hawt!""Thanks." Laura smiled warmly. "And all thanks to you my love, your handwork made me look this way.""You're always welcome sweetie, just make sure you do more than just slaying him with your looks."Lizzy winked. "Lizzy! Oh my God, how did I ever end up with you?"Lizzy grinned foolishly and pretended to be in thought. "Because you love me, and can't do without me, and..."Laura rolled her eyes. "Yea right."She turned to the mirror once m

    Laura didn't want the night to end. She was having a great time with Greg who was very good company and was, surprisingly funny. She had been laughing her heart out as their dinner progressed and she had wished she didn't have a family to go back to, that she lived alone, so that she could go back home whenever she liked. After they finished their meal, they went out to the large balcony with their drinks and stood, taking in the wonderful view of the city in comfortable silence. "Beautiful, isn't it?" She asked softly, gazing down at the vibrant lights coming from various beautiful buildings in the city, as well as the cars on the road that looked like moving light bulbs and the street lights adding more to the view. "Yes, beautiful." He murmured and she turned to him. He was looking at her and then it was obvious that he wasn't referring to the city's view as beautiful. Blushing, she looked away and cleared her throat. "You know," he continued and she looked up at him. "I've a

    "It's Greg, Lizzy."Laura stared at her phone like it had suddenly grown a face. "Then what are you waiting for? Pick it up!" Lizzy squealed. "No!""What?""No!""Are you crazy?""Yes! I mean no! I - Oh God, Lizzy stop it!"Laura buried her face in her hands in frustration. "But why Lau?" Lizzy asked softly, this time. "Why don't you want to talk to him?""I can't." She replied. "I don't even know what to say to him. I...""It's not as hard as you think, Lau."Lizzy reasoned. "Just take a deep breath and talk to the guy.""I can't see him again, Lizzy." Laura whispered. "I can't. It's bad enough that we went that far last night. For God's sake if Sam ever found out...""You don't owe Samantha no explanation." Lizzy snapped. "You don't even know if they're really dating.""But you know my step family, especially Samantha. Even if they aren't dating, the fact that she likes and wants him is enough reason for her to do something rash and stupid."Lizzy sighed. "I understand that you

    Laura kept looking up at Ronald, until she heard the snaps from camera and felt the blinding flashes of light on them which caused her to quickly wiggle out of his hold and straighten her dress as she glared at the paps that were taking pictures of them. Ronald took her hand in a firm grip and took her out of the area and it was a hold that she welcomed at that moment. And he actually took her to a less secluded place, from where she could see some couples already dancing to the slow tune of music. "I'm sorry about that," he apologized genuinely, which actually surprised her. "Those buffoons never know their boundaries. I thought the celebrants ordered that they be locked out for the meantime, I don't know how these ones managed to get in. They probably snuck their way in."She gave a small smile. "It's okay. It's not your fault."He grinned sexily, making his face appear more handsome. "I wasn't expecting to see you here."Laura shrugged. "Let's say I've decided to crawl out of my

    "Greg are you there?"Greg cursed under his breath as he recognized Sophia's voice. He had told the girl that he wanted to be alone, so why the hell was she looking for him now? "I...I have to go." The beautiful woman in his arms said nervously and started to get up but he held her back down. "You are fond of saying that, Carrot."He drawled. "But I really have to." Laura said breathlessly as she adjusted her clothing. "Whoever she is, I don't want her to see us like this."But he wouldn't budge. "Please Greg, please."Greg looked at her beautiful face. She was right though. He wouldn't want Sophia to start plotting against her like she had with some other women that had gotten with him in the past and that was bound to happen again if Sophia saw them together. He released her reluctantly and groaned as her soft body and heady scent left him. After one last look at him, with eyes still filled with desire, she turned to go but he stopped her. "Carrot?"She turned to him. "Yes?"

    Laura opened her mouth in shock when Greg told her the reason for his odd attitude that morning and showed her the newspaper on the coffee table. She tried to speak but no words could come out of her mouth. Greg stood up and paced the room. "Do you actually know the reason for my anger now?" He grounded. "It's not the fact that a picture of you and I in an intimate position is in the papers, it's the fact that you connived with your minions to have it put there! You of all people! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't called that stupid publishing company."Laura flinched. "What? Aren't you going to deny it?" He snapped angrily. "You wanted fame and you got it! You wanted the paparazzi at your heels and you're gonna get your wish!" "Greg I...""Shut up!" he growled in anger. "Not another word from you."He took a deep breath, turning away from her and said calmly. "And I had thought you were different. I thought you..." He slumped his shoulders. Laura took a step close to him.

    Lizzy's words kept going through Greg's head and he wondered if she was telling the truth about Laura or was just trying to cover up her friend's unacceptable deed. He desperately wanted to believe that Laura was innocent but how could he be sure? The girl had not even tried to contact him since after that day of the confrontation and that had made him believe that she really was guilty. If she wasn't, why didn't she call or at least text him again after that day? He sighed heavily, as he paced the space of his vast bedroom. His eyes kept drifting to his phone, as if telling him to pick it up and call her. But he couldn't. She had to make the first move since he was the victim here. He paused. But what if she really was the victim here? He sighed heavily again. He would need to hear from her own side. ❤❤❤Laura was quiet after her father had angrily asked about what he saw on the net. Someone had told him and he had confirmed it when he saw it on net, then wasted no time in call

    She placed her hand on her protruded tummy and smiled as she watched her husband and son, their heads bent in concentration and with cute matching frowns on their foreheads as they went through the book before them. They were so similar, both in appearance and in character. She sighed in contentment.It had been a very blissful three years. Too blissful that she found it terrifying. It all seemed too good to be true at the initial stage but when she thought about everything she had gone through, she realized that she deserved every happiness that came to her. Her husband, her son and the baby in her womb who, she always felt couldn't wait to come into the world and meet it's family.A small cloud of sadness settled on her face as she thought of her step mother, Celina.

    "No way!" Celina boomed pacing up and down the living room."It is what it is, mother."Samantha said tearfully as she sat on the couch with a mug of tea in her hands, legs tucked in. "I will not allow this to happen!""It already has!" Samantha snapped in annoyance. "Greg already knows that Sydney is not his son and asides that, I believe he has regained his memory. It's over mum.""No it's not!" Celina said stubbornly. "This can't be over, not after everything we did to get you to that position.""Mum you don't understand," Samantha said wearily. "I already confessed to Greg that Sydney is not his! And there's no way he's gonna take me back after catching me in bed with that moron!""Well you are as much of a moron as that fool he caught you in his bed with." Celina snapped. "How could you be so stupid and careless? Sleeping with another man in his house, in his bedroom! What kind of stupidity is that?""I wasn't expecting him until in the evening!""And so what you foolish child?

    Laura slid out of his suddenly limp embrace and excused herself, not missing the frown of confusion, curiosity and dread on his face.She went into the bedroom and to Cameron's cot and realized he was only having a bad dream. After calming him down and putting him to sleep again, she returned to the sitting room.He was standing with his back to her staring at a painting. His stance oozed power and sexual appeal and she mentally slapped herself for harboring immoral thoughts."That was a baby, wasn't it?" He asked in a murmur."Yes, obviously." She replied curtly."Whose child is it?" He asked, turning to face her."None of your business." She said nonchalantly.He took a dangerous step towards her. "Laura. Whose. Child. Was that?"She glared at him for seconds then rolled her eyes."Well since you're been insistent, he's my child."Time stood still as he froze at her announcement. Then he vaguely remembered that she did have a son. He had found out when he went through her profile

    She was his.And he'd be damned if he let another man have her.How had things gotten to this? How was he on the verge of losing his one true love? He shook his head as he blamed the accident and loss of his memory for his current predicament.But most importantly. How was he going to win her back?He knew she could be headstrong and determined sometimes but he had to do all he could to get her back. She was the light in his dark world. And without her with him, his life would be empty. He would get her, his angel back.That aside for the meantime though. Right now he had to focus on getting that Samantha West out of his house and his life for good, he thought as he turned his car into his street.When he returned home the previous evening and met her, his subconscious telling him that the woman had been living with him for months in the name of being his fiancee, he was somewhat shocked and at the same time believed that it was true.But what he found difficult to accept was the c

    Laura looked at Dexter with a small loving smile as he waited for an answer, though her mind was muddled and her heart was beating erratically. She sighed.She was tired. Tired of fighting for a lost cause. Who was she deceiving? Greg was lost to her forever. She could never get him back. She didn't even know whether she still wanted him after everything he had done to her. She had been patient. For over a year she had been hoping he would one day come to remember her for who she really was and what she had once meant to him. But all proved abortive and the worst of it all was the sack letter she had received from him after a night of intense lovemaking and worse still, the second dreaded letter that tore at her heart whenever she thought of it.The accident had reborn him into a beast.Anger at him beclouded her heart and she discovered there was no soft spot for him in her heart any longer.He was her son's father, yes. But that was all he would ever be to her.And he would never k

    With an enthusiastic heart, Laura walked into the office building, a huge and radiant smile on her face on Monday morning.She had a reason to be happy, very much so. And the thought of that reason widened the smile on her face.Edna bumped into her when she rounded a corner and gave a wide happy grin of hers."Laura!""Hey Edna, good morning!" "Good morning Laura, you look quite happy this morning."Laura grinned. "That's because I am happy. And you, you look quite radiant and excited this morning. What's up?"Edna smiled dreamily. "Oh Laura, you won't believe this! Guess what?""Oh come on Ed don't keep me in suspense, just spill!"Laura said excitedly."Levi asked me to be his girlfriend, last night."Laura's eyes widened in excitement. "Omg!

    As early as five in the morning, he woke up. He blinked his eyes as he tried to get them adjusted to the little light coming in from the moon through the window. Then he felt softness pressed warmly against him and he looked down to behold her calm sleeping glorious face illuminated by the morning moonlight and everything that had happened the previous night and the early hours of the morning came rushing into his head.They had had sex. No. The better word was, they had made love. He had tried to take it as just casual sex during the deed, but the wave of emotions and passion that flowed between them was so intense that it couldn't be described as just casual sex. If felt so natural. So right. He didn't feel guilty which made him wonder why. No matter how hard he forced himself to feel guilty, something kept telling him that he hadn't done anything wrong.He looked at her again. She was so beautiful. And he wasn't just talking about her face.The sex had been earth shattering and h

    Greg didn't know how Laura West managed to convince him to wait in her house before his mechanic comes to fix his car. He couldn't even find any issue with the car and it had been a long time since that particular car had had any issue.He had called the vehicle tech but the bastard had told him that he was out of town at the meantime but would be with him in the next one hour thirty minutes. One hour thirty minutes! Alone with this woman in a house! He considered getting a taxi and sending someone to come get his car tomorrow but why the hell wasn't he getting that taxi?A slender hand with a glass of water appeared in his vision and he blinked remembering that he had asked for the water."Thanks." He said as he collected the glass from her, making sure to avoid any contact with her. He didn't want want to take any risk."You're welcome Mr Williams."
