The meeting

Sapphire's POV I was swirling the drink in my glass as my friends chatted away. Evelyn was screaming about something her boyfriend did to her as always while Rebecca kept flaunting her new necklace. The only thing I could think about at the moment was my sick mum and also about myself who was completely useless. You may be wondering who I am. I am Sapphire Richardson, daughter to a struggling family but also first class scholarship students at one of the most prestigious universities in the country. I was pretty much just a typical girl with typical issues and one who stayed out of trouble including men troubles.After my father ditched my mother when she got sick years ago to elope with his female boss, I closed every possible chapter called relationships. Guys were horrible. After all I had friends and I've seen how they always cried truckload of tears on my shoulders now and then because of the heartbreaks they got from their boyfriends. I couldn't bear all that emotional stres...

A date
Sapphire's POV My heart stopped when I read the letter in my shaking hands. It felt like my world had stopped and been tossed into a trance. My scholarship had been withdrawn! I looked all over the letter maybe for even a valid reason but I couldn't get any. What…what the hell was this? My scholarship was the only way I could secure a good future for myself and my mother. If I lose it then it's over! I slipped into my dress faster than lightening and before I knew it, I found my way to the admissions office where I was redirected to see the vice chancellor of the university who had initiated the withdrawal process.I was ready to do anything he asked me. I couldn't lose this scholarship but then his next words had sent my brain exploding into a billion pieces. "I'm sorry miss Richardson but it's out of my hands. Request for your withdrawal came directly from the new owner and director of the institution. There was nothing I could do" He said looking really remorseful and I frowne

Get ready
Sapphire's POV Even with the AC turned on in the private jet, I still felt like I would suffocate. I gripped at the hem of my dress as I stared out the window. I had never been in a plane before but now I was in a flipping first class private jet! But unfortunately, I was on my way to a forced wedding. How the hell did my life take such a drastic turn in three days? I saw Lance come out of the inner cabin, sauntering into the room like some demigod. He was dressed in casual, his shirt was slightly unbuttoned. I saw him take the seat on the other side of the plane, a tablet in his hand which he delicately operated. His facials couldn't get any more hot. His brown hair looked more soft like sheep's wool. Damn it, Sapphire, this man is your flipping kidnapper! He's literally forcing you to marry him! Why the hell a man of his caliber would force me to marry him is something I couldn't understand. But then again it was hard to resist looking at him. "If you're going to drool, you mig

His hot brother
Sapphire's POV A group of people were waiting just outside for us. Exotically dressed people. One sexy looking Prima Dona decked with gold came catwalking towards us with a wide beam and I could swear her beauty was blinding. She stretched her hands as we approached. "Oh, Lancy! She exclaimed and I stifled the urge to snicker. Lancy? I saw Mr. Pretty man give a soft smile. One which almost looked sincere. He released his hold on me as he embraced her. I was grateful. I didn't know how much more I could take him holding me that way. "Lancy, how many years has it been? Ten? Fifteen? Wow. I can't remember the last time I saw you" "You don't have to call me that, Aunt Kathy. I'm not twelve anymore. Lance will do just fine" I saw her give a sweet smile. "Wow. My boy's all grown up into a man. You're just as handsome as your father" She gave a slight pause and turned to me. I froze for a moment as I didn't know if I was supposed to say something. "Em…morning ma'am" I managed to st

Welcome to the family
Sapphire's POV "Do you, Miss Lauren Dennis take Mr Lance Clawson to be your lawfully wedded husband? The priest's voice came and I felt the words stuck in my throat. I looked to Lance. He had this blank and unreadable expression in his eyes. I felt my legs quaking beneath my $1,000,000 wedding dress. I still couldn't believe I was getting married to this man. I wish I could run away. Only yesterday we arrived he had locked me out of our room and made me sleep on the balcony instead in the freezing cold. According to him he liked space and I was in the way. Was this the way I was going to live the rest of my life? "Miss Dennis? The Priest called and I gasped gently. Lance squeezed at my hand with a raised brow and I gulped. I forced a smile. "Ye....yes...I do" "Do you Mr Lance Clawson take Miss Lauren Dennis to be your lawfully wedded wife? "I do" "You may now kiss the bride" My heart froze. What? I looked to him as I saw him inch closer and I flushed. I closed my eyes in unce

The Clawson family
Third person POV Elisa Clawson stood fixated at a corner , a glass cup in her hands with her eyes resting on the newly weds who at the moment were having their first dance. For some reason she couldn't help but feel so uneasy. "You're troubled too, right? She heard a voice behind her and she spun round to see her cousin Alfonso who was draped in a quality cream colored tuxedo standing behind her. He gave a sly smile. She didn't even know when he arrived. "What are you doing here Alfonso? She half yelled and he gave a shrug. "I came to meet my sweet cousin of course. Besides didn't you miss me? You barely call these days" He said as he slipped his hand around her waist. She frowned and slapped his hands away. "Behave yourself. we're in public and my husband is around here somewhere " She said in a whisper and he scoffed. "It must be tiring sharing a bed with that oaf. Honestly at times I get jealous. I wish you didn't have to tolerate him. I wish he didn't have to have acce

Sudden Tragedy
Sapphire's POV I moved past the halls hurriedly, my heart threatening to tear right out my chest. Someone was planning to kill Lance. I couldn't tell who. I couldn't recognize their voices either but I couldn't sit back and do nothing. Who could it possibly be? The thought of all of this was frightening me. I could just let this happen though. If Lance died maybe I would be freed but then ...why ....why was I moving? He was a horrible person but I....I couldn't just sit back and let this happen. I was rushing through the hotel lobby when I crashed into someone. I staggered and nearly fell but he held my hands. I gasped and looked up. It was Ronald. He gave a wide smile. "Hello beautiful. I was wondering where you were" His voice came as he gripped my wrist gently. "Mr.....Ronald...em... , I just went to use the bathroom earlier. Em, I didn't see you at the wedding earlier or the reception so I thought you wouldn't come." I forced a smile. Within me, I wished he would let me go.

Sexy eyes
Sapphire's POV I pried my eyes open with a groan. I was on a hospital bed in a private ward. What happened? I suddenly remembered what had happened. How I had stopped Lance from getting poisoned and had gotten poisoned instead. I groaned and clutched at my chest. I was alive. For a minute, I could have sworn I was seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. The door flung open the next minute and the doctor walked in along with Aunty Kathy and Mrs Elisa, my mother in-law. Aunty Kathy gave a heavy sigh of relief clasping her hands together while Mrs Elisa had this somewhat insincere look of worry on her face. Her eyes betrayed her.Why did it seem like she was disappointed? "She's awake! Thank goodness. Lauren how are you doing? Who would do such a horrible thing? Aunt Kathy moved to my side and touched my cheek softly. "Are you alright? Her gentle voice came and I forced a smile.Of course I wasn't fine. It was obvious but her niceness was so pure and bewitching. She was differ

Murderer?
"Don't....don't tempt me Sapphire, you won't like it" His husky voice came and my eyes widened. It was one of the first time he was calling me by name. Why did it sound so sexy when he called my name? It was so... But then suddenlyi saw him sigh. He pulled away, got up and turned to leave without sparing me a glance. Wait what..... He stopped in his tracks halfway across the room. "I'll have my personal assistant Travis take you round town for shopping when we get back to the mansion as a recompense. I don't intend to remain in your debt. Keep that in mind" It felt like a block had been dropped on my head. Why was he acting like he hadn't just rushed at me like a wild hound few seconds ago? Why was he acting like nothing had happened between us? Did he just do that to tease me? I flushed in embarrassment when I realized if he hadn't pulled back, I would have probably let him have his way with me like some cheap tramp. Sapphire, what the hell is wrong with you? He left witho

I'll show you who's boss
Sapphire's POVThe light rays hit my face and my eyes pried open. I looked around. I was at the resort suite. On the bed.On the bed? I gasped, sat up and flung the duvet away. How did I get on the bed? If I could remember right, aunty Kathy had come pick me up from the hospital. She helped me to the suite and I sat outside on the balcony bench till I fell asleep.I slept outside last night so how....... Or was I dreaming?The bathroom door was flung open that instant and I saw a half dressed Lance come out. He was still wet wearing a white robe which was left open, exposing his muscular upper body and a white towel was wrapped around his waist. He wiped his hair with another towel. I couldn't help but notice how hot he looked with his hair roughened and his ripped body on full display. His cold eyes shot to my direction all of a sudden and I looked away with a gulp. I suddenly remembered how he kissed me yesterday and I flushed.Wait, was he the one who carried me to the bed? Did he d
