His Reluctant Bride Uncovering the Truth
Aira Stared at the woman before her as she smiled coyly. She was wearing a tight fit shirt and jeans in black with leather high heel boots. Her long hair was much like Vincent’s and her eyes were a deep green that made her wonder if she was his long lost sister. And her smiling lips painted red made her look like a predator who just finished eating his prey.Except that she felt like she was the prey and she had yet to be eaten. Because there was no mistaking it, despite the resemblance, there was no denying who the woman who stood before her was."Hello there, Nice to meet you.” She said before Aira said anything, “I'm Carla Valory," She said with a smile.“Nice to meet you, Carla. You must be one of Vincent’s cousins.” She answered.She’d only seen these kinds of things in scenes in soap operas. When the wife and the mistress meet. Or should she say the fake wife and the mistress?“You must be wondering what Vincent’s cousin is doing here visiting you like this,” She said.“I’ve ask
His Reluctant Bride Cold Anger
Vincent parked his car in the driveway trying to fight the weariness that was creeping up on him and steeling himself to go into the dark silent house once again.Before Aira moved in, he never thought about returning to his townhouse while empty as something tedious. Now it was something he dreaded.Looking up, he spotted Aira’s black beetle parked in front of the house and he perked up hurrying up the stairs and opening the door.He entered the house and spotted Aira on the counter through the dark, then looked down at her luggage by the door. “You’re really here. I saw your car.” He said then added, “Did you need something?” Wondering why she needed this much luggage in the first place.He stepped inside removing his tie and he looked back at the luggage still thinking about the luggage. He was already having a hard time without her, if she tells him that she was prolonging her stay at her grandmother’s he was going to ask her to let him stay with them.“Why are you sitting here i

Warning: This chapter may contain some explicit content. Please read with caution. “I wanted you,” Aira wanted to reach out to Vincent when he said that. Her hopes perked up, but she tamed them down as her cynical side won over her emotional side. “I know that too. You needed me to accomplish all this. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to accomplish any of this,” She said repeating what that cynical voice whispered in her head breaking her own heart with each word. “I was told several times that you were a manipulative person. And I thought that I understood what they meant back then. But it turns out that I didn’t,” She said, “I never understood to what extent your manipulations could run,” Vincent’s silence was like a spear through her heart. She wanted him to reach out and swear that he didn’t do any of this. That this is another misunderstanding. Another one of his family’s schemes. “No, Aira. You don’t understand,” He said, not denying anything, he simply clarified, “I

Warning: This chapter may contain some explicit content. Please read with caution. Vincent knew that he should stop. He knew that he was supposed to pull back. That what he was doing is wrong. But he couldn’t. It was as if a veil had been covering his mind, a red veil of anger, passion, and… fear? He was afraid that he was losing Aira. No, he knew that he had already lost her but he refused to let go of her. Even if he has to tie her and lock her up somewhere where no one would find her. No one but him. He watched as she moaned in pleasure bneath his touch, she was beautiful. her face was flushed with desire, but her eyes burned with something that looked like anger, betrayal and hate. She probably hated him by now. He would hate himself by now. But still, Vincent couldn’t stop. It was as if the beast that he had been trying to hold back since he met her got unleashed and there was no controlling it anymore. The first time Vincent saw Aira, he remembered something primal moving w
His Reluctant Bride Regrets and Resolve
“Wha- Vincent….” She said her voice heavy with panting as she looked at him with horror. What was he going to do with her phone?Without answering her she taped on the screen of her ringing phone answering the call. “Hi, Ian,” he said as a way of greeting and blood drained from her face at the realisation that her brother was calling her at this time.That’s right, he was supposed to visit their grandmother that night. “She stopped by to pick a few things up,” Vincent answered, “she seemed tired so I didn’t let her drive back today. She will be there tomorrow,” She wanted to scoff at that act he was putting on. He was so good at those that she almost believed him. That damned man.“Alright man, I’ll let her know when she’s awake,” she said.She glared up at him as he finished the call and threw her phone back on the pile of clothes.“Untie me,” she defied but he only smiled at her.“What are you doing?! Untie me already!” She repeated and he smirked this time.“You think we’re done
His Reluctant Bride Pain and Deception
Aira told her grandmother everything. From the contract to their relationship, how he had made it like her father was going bankrupt.She had clicked her tongue at that cursing her father for being a stubborn old goon.After telling her the whole tale Aira’s hat felt lighter. It felt extremely light and freed as if she had been holding it all down for so long.“If only it hadn’t been for that stubborn father of yours,” Her grandmother sighed at one point, “But my dear, I would have expected nothing less from you. You’ve always held your family dear since you were young no matter how much they hurt you… How much WE hurt you,” She muttered,“Grandma, I told you to stop beating yourself up about that,” She said wiping her tear-swollen eyes.“Oh, what is it that I have left if it’s not for my lamenting and wallowing? At least let me wallow about it for a while…” She said and Aira smiled at her grandmother’s antics.Her grandmother smiled back and covered her hand with hers.“Honey, I know
His Reluctant Bride Relapse
Aira ran up to her grandmother’s room as she barked orders to the butler to call the doctor. Another seizure? So soon after the first one?!Aire made her way to her grandmother’s room where her health monitors were beeping. Her heart had stopped beating.Without hesitation, she made her way toward the bed fixing her position and beginning to perform CPR.With each pump, Aira felt her heaving breath as fear and adrenaline gave her the strength to push again and again until she was on a rhythm. But to no avail.The machine was beeping loudly telling her that she should make more effort.But her arms failed her and for the second time that week, she felt really weak and defenseless.A sob escaped her lips as she looked down at her grandmother’s pale face.“Grandma, please,” she said with a pleading voice as she went on not stopping her compressions and just as she was about to give up. Or more like as her hands were starting to dive way underneath her, she heard the cheerful beep of the
His Reluctant Bride Regrets
Vincent woke up the moment he felt Aira move in his arms. She had fallen asleep from exhaustion as soon as he let her go. He had leaned on top of her and watched her for a while memorizing her sleeping face, her body, everything about her.Then taking her into his arms he fell asleep wondering what he was going to do tomorrow when they were both awake.But he didn’t have to worry about it. Because Aira slipped out of his arms as soon as she woke up despite barely being able to wake because of how hard he drove her body to its limits last night. Then she pulled her clothes on and left the room as quietly as a mouse without looking back at him.Opening his eyes, he stood up pulling his pants on, and made his way to the window watching her get into her beetle and drive away from the house without a single look back.One night…His fists clenched as his anger and frustration rose. There was no way that one night was going to be enough. A lifetime isn’t nearly enough with her. He wanted he

His Reluctant Bride The End
Vincent pressed Aira against the door kissing her face and neck frantically and she chuckled upon the contact her melodious laugh making him relax and smile back at her as if she was the most precious thing in the world. "Are you really here with me?" He asked cupping her cheeks and she smiled up at him and nodded. "I really am here with you. Vince. I'm not going anywhere," She said looking him in the eyes and he nodded his eyes looking vulnerable, "This feels like it's another dream," He said and she circled her arms around his waist leaning into him. "Did you have a lot of those? The dreams I mean," She said and he simply nodded. "Since the very first day that I met you. I had been dreaming about you since that day," He said looking at her with a serious look in his eyes making her wonder if that was really the truth. It can't be... He must be pulling her leg. Before she could think about anything, she felt Vincent pull her up against him and kiss the daylight out of her as he
His Reluctant Bride Confession
Aira stood at the side and watched as the crowds all dressed in lavish black, circled around the huge gallery. She was standing to the side wearing a tight-laced black dress and black string high heels which made her feel both exposed and a little bit uncomfortable.There was something about dressing like this while attending an event alone. It made her feel as if she was being followed around by the gazes of any man hoping to get an easy lay tonight.Her only consolation is that this was a family event. A memorial for her grandmother.She wanted to laugh at that. This was more like a full-blown exhibition. The exhibition of the century.Her mother had went and outdid herself again with this event.Both her grandmother and Paul had been working nonstop on this. They even employed interior designers and event planners to coordinate everything to make sure the event was what their grandmother had hoped for.The woman sure had a fancy taste.Aira had been mostly working on the painting m
His Reluctant Bride Waiting and Wondering

But a sudden turn of events makes us wonder if that assumption is going to be proven wrong.Today, Warren Valory had been arrested for no disclosed reasons closing the chapter of a long battle that had been going on for years since the young CEO took over the company in his early twenties being one of the youngest entrepreneurs to reach such a position at such a young age.In answer to our questions this morning, Vincent Valory revealed that his uncle was only getting what he had always deserved. He said that the days when he would cover up for his uncle because he was family were gone and that the limit was set at hurting other people and committing real crimes.Other sources revealed that the real crime Mr. Valory was talking about was the attempt his uncle had made to harm his beloved wife in a hit and run causing her car to almost roll up
His Reluctant Bride The Will
Aira sat down beside her mother and looked at the members of the family around her.Her uncle sat back on his chair looking as if he still believed his mother would walk into the room and announce that this was a joke. His wife sat quietly beside him as he clenched her hand in his offering him all the comfort he needed.Grace sat on the other side of the sofa leaning against paul her eyes red-rimmed and Paul held her close gently patting her shoulder while Ian stood be her side looking down at her from time to time looking worried.It paid to be the youngest member of their family.Her father on the other hand stood behind her mother his hands on her shoulders comforting her the best way he could.Aira on the other hand sat there alone as everyone wondered where her so sweet and loyal husband went at such an important moment.They were about to know why.The lawyer who sat before them cleared his throat as he pulled a piece of paper out of the envelope that he had been holding linking
His Reluctant Bride The last goodbye
There was one thing about goodbyes that Aira knew very well. And that it was a form of closure that people seek in order to make peace with the person they were never going to see again. And also with the part of them, that was attached to that person.Aira now was saying goodbye to both. And she knew that it was going to be hard, but she didn't expect it to be this hard.Standing before the coffin and away from it enough for her not to see the insides of it she remained rooted in place for a while fear gripping her heart like a vice.Her mind was like a rollercoaster of emotions and thoughts and she even started trembling again.But then she remembered."I am proud of you." That's what her grandmother had said back then.As if her mind calmed down all of a sudden from the turbulence of a storm to the calm of a sunny morning by the beach, Aira slowly stepped toward the coffin where her grandmother was laying peacefully looking like she was simply asleep. And maybe she was, but her sle
His Reluctant Bride Funeral
A few days later, Aira sat down in the second row as she watched her mother present her eulogy. She felt drained and cried out. In the three days since her grandmother died, Aira had been doing very little.Other than painting or staring at the painting, she spent half the time crying and the other half trying to suppress her tears. Her family was grieving and each time she found her mother sitting in a corner crying by herself, she felt her heart break a little more as she went to try to comfort her.She was tired. So tired that she felt like she was going to sit anywhere and fall asleep as soon as the funeral was over.She felt a hand sneak around her waist and pull her sideways against a muscular chest. Grateful for the support, she didn’t tell Vincent anything. She didn’t need to.He had been hovering over her since that day but she couldn’t say that his presence bothered her. Sometimes she barely noticed his presence but most of the time, he would always be in the right place at
His Reluctant Bride Struggles
Aira opened her eyes after a few hours from her nap feeling rested and peaceful for the first time since she discovered what Vincent had done.Jumping out of bed, she could barely fight the urge to take the brush into her hands. So without stopping to think about anything and like a lunatic with an illusionary fire chasing after her, she changed into her jeans not bothering with a new shirt, and made her way toward the workshop.Opening the door. She headed toward the untouched painting left as she had left it before the butler had come to get her.A bang in her chest sobered her but she still made her way toward it and stared at it for a few moments before she picked up a new brush and started mixing the colors and preparing for everything.After a while, she was already painting the rest of the painting unaware of what was going on around her.Vincent came barging into the room at some point and she looked at him absently wondering why he looked so worried. Then he sighed in relief
His Reluctant Bride Truce
Vincent stood by the door and watched as Aira’s family fussed over her. Her mother and sister were hugging her tightly as they cried and her uncle stood away awkwardly as her father spoke to him clearly giving him a piece of his mind about what he said to her.“Thank you for finding her,” Ian said as he came up to stand beside him, “Amongst all of us, she is the one who has the hardest time.” He said.“I know. They were pretty close together,” He said with a smile his eyes never leaving her.“They were. Which is probably why she sold the mansion to you. She wanted Aira to have it one way or another.” Ian said and Vincent remained silent for a while not bothering to answer that comment.“She told me that you had a fight. She seemed upset over it, I was wondering if she would agree to come with you.” Ian added and this time Vincent looked at him.“I was wondering the same too. To be honest, I screwed up pretty badly this time and I wouldn’t have been surprised if she had refused. I had
His Reluctant Bride Running Away
Aira stood there in front of her mother and uncle staring at the table.“Honey, I know how hard this-““No. You can’t do this to me,” she muttered.“You have no choice, Aira, you’re an artist, you need to finish that painting. It was her last wish,” Her uncle said in a hard tone.“No!” She screamed and they were both taken aback, she took a step back startled at her own outburst.“No… I- I mean…” she stuttered taking a few steps back feeling stares on her piercing through her skin.Suddenly she felt overwhelmed, dizzy, and out of air. She wanted to throw up.“Aira, honey, are you okay?” Her mother asked looking at her with concern Aira took another step back when her mother reached out for her.“Don’t touch me…” she said dazed and her uncle stood looking at her with confusion.“Are you like this because we asked you to finish the painting?” He asked and she felt the mocking tone in his voice.“Don’t talk to me,” she gritted out glaring at them, then she turned around to find everyone l
