~Camila's POV~

I woke up grumbling because I didn’t feel well. I stretched my legs, hands, and body as I welcomed the beautiful morning. I could feel my heartbeat getting faster and faster. I could also feel the anxiety rising within me, which made me want to vomit all of a sudden. Within a split second, I was already tearing through the hallway in the direction of the restroom. I felt bile rising in my throat, and I started to continuously throw up while holding the side of the toilet bowl. I wiped the inside of my mouth with the palm of my hand and then sat back down on the floor of the bathroom. I am so tired and exhausted by the amount of food I threw out, not to mention that I haven’t eaten anything yet. I used my hand to push the loose strands of my hair away from my face. I tried to use the ground for balance, but I fell back down as I tried to get up. I remained motionless in the same spot because I had no idea what to do. Even the effort needed to make a phone call to ask for

  • His Second Wife   She's pregnant

    Christopher’s POV "Um, Buddy, she’s pregnant." I turned to look at Henry, who is not only a good friend but also a family doctor. He doesn’t know that Camille is still my wife. He looks so concerned that she is pregnant, but what my friend doesn’t know is that the baby is mine. I was rendered completely speechless as I stood there. I want to celebrate, but if I do, I will blow my cover.Fuck it! I cracked a smile. "She’s pregnant? How long?""She's about to enter the second trimester now. Going to 12 weeks." My eyes went wide. Shit! When I took her to the dungeon, she was already several months along in her pregnancy. I was far too rough that night, and the baby could have been seriously injured or even killed as a result. Is the baby still okay?After making some sort of throat-clearing noise, I looked over at Henry. "Is the baby all right?""In good health.""Does it mean she knew?" I inquired my friend, but Henry gave me an odd look when I did so. I paced back and forth, rubbing

  • His Second Wife   Kidnapped?

    ~Camila’s POV~I have no idea what’s going on, but not only am I gaining weight, but I’ve also been feeling a little off lately. I don’t know why. My son, along with the rest of the family, appears to be treating me as though I were a fragile egg that could crack at any moment for no apparent reason. The house is constantly guarded. Luke has been looking after my CAMMY for two weeks now, and he is dangerously killing it. Luke, I need to find an excuse to leave this house, and that excuse happened to be Luke. I decided to give Luke a call, and as soon as I pressed the button to connect, he answered right away. I told him to come up with an excuse for me to leave the house. Knowing Luke, I knew he would come up with something to tell Chris. Whatever it is that I am experiencing cannot be considered typical.After like 20 minutes, Luke told me the coast was clear. I didn’t know what to anticipate, so I asked him to come to the hospital with me to make sure everything went smoothly. There

    ~Camila’s POV~The thought kept popping into my head, and as it did, I felt myself becoming more helpless and agitated on the inside. I couldn’t help but wonder why Luke and I would be taken hostage in the first place. Is Luke the one who did this to me? No, Luke wouldn’t do this to me. No, he cannot; after all, he is my friend.No, Camila; Luke dated Mark. What if they are in this together?There was a voice inside my head that murmured something. “Shut the fuck up!” Shut the..." I had just started speaking when I was interrupted by the sound of someone groaning. “Luke...Luke is that you….”“The fuck, Camila, I can’t even be kidnapped in peace,” he groaned again.“What? Are you fucking kidding me?”“Hey, you just found out you’re pregnant, and you know that cussing isn’t healthy. There is a baby.” I feel like slapping him right now.“Where are we?” I asked.“I should ask you that considering I just woke up and my head is spinning,” he laughed, “do we call for help?” I realize he is p

    ~Camila’s POV~There’s more to this than meets the eye. I have been going through a significant amount of paperwork from both companies, and I noticed that there was something wrong. The Coopers are not acting on their own. Someone within the family has been betraying the family, and that started way before my husband, Chris, started his own firm.Who brought the Coopers into the family? Who was it that suggested the Cooper family should have a 6% ownership stake in the family business?I think this should be my first task, finding out who linked the family to the Coopers. I do not want to involve my husband in this situation because it concerns his family, and I believe it will hurt him more than it will hurt anyone else. Chris was hell-bent on finding out what the Coopers were after. I doubt he has any idea if there is a mole in the family. I reached for my phone and dialed the number of the one person I knew who might be able to assist me with this situation. The phone didn’t ring

    ~Camila’s POV~Robin: Ma’am, the boss, just asked me to look into the family members. It’s possible that he is fully conscious that there is a mole, but I highly doubt that.Camila: It’s fine; just keep investigating and let me know how it goes. Find out the answer to the question that I asked you. Have you gotten any leads from Chris’s conversation with you?Robin: No, ma’am, he just asked me to follow his brothers.Camila: There is a strong possibility that it is not the brothers because they were merely pawns in this game. Do what I asked you to do; I strongly believe we will have a lead from that.Robin: Yes ma’am.After Robin hung up, I went into the room. It was already some minutes after 7. I headed to the shower. Chris and I haven’t touched each other since he found out I was pregnant. He still doesn’t know that I know that I’m pregnant. I mean, I don’t have a bump, but I can feel the changes.

    ~Camila’s POV~“Ma’am, I have the information you were looking for,” says Robin.Camila: Okay, meet me at our meeting spot.I can’t believe Robin only needed a few days to figure out who brought the Coopers into the family. I discovered a slew of odd businesses that the Coopers have been involved in. And we uncovered a lot of shocking information about the whole family that we were not expecting. I don’t even want to talk about it because that family is so effing crazy. I won’t even talk about it. After gathering my belongings, I made my way to the restaurant where I was supposed to meet Robin. When I arrived at the restaurant, he was already in the private area. While I was being handed a large file by Robin, I placed an order for some water. After going over every little thing, I was so stressed out that I almost threw up on the paper.How could this be?Robin has already uncovered a wealth of information for me, and I can’t believe what I’m seeing.

    ~Christopher’s POV~I sat in my study, watching the disgusting videos of the Cooper family. I thought I was wrong that day, which meant I walked into Mark and his dad banging.Fuck!The thought of that makes me sick. How could they be fucking each other like that, as though they were not related? This is so fucking out of line, and I can’t really understand this family at all. I leaned back in my chair and tossed my iPad away. My screen displays a message.My World: Family meeting at 2 p.m.Strange, why would my little wife call a family meeting, and what exactly does she want to say? I mean, she is pregnant, even though my family doesn’t know yet, but when they see her today, they will know. I mean, her bump is now big. And God, did I mention how good she looks? She is the most beautiful woman on earth. I was afraid to sleep with her, but Camille would always jump on me and do me. I couldn’t allow her to do that anymore. I have just learned to be gentle with time. Camille loves sex,

  • His Second Wife   Bonus Chapter 1

    Flashback part 1 A man stood on the balcony and watched as his eldest son brought home a woman, or rather, a girl, that he had been sleeping with for the past years, to his family house. Not to mention that the lady in question just had the steamiest night with him last night. As she smiled innocently, he was convinced she would win the heart of his eldest son. “Just as planned.” He muttered to himself as he walked away from the balcony, holding a cup of coffee. “Honey, Joshua just came back home with a girl. He never brought a girl home; that’s new from him, don’t you think?” The man looked at his annoyingly talkative wife and didn’t answer. The woman was used to his cold way; she then carried on, “Do you think father and mother would approve of the girl Joshua brought home?” She asked as she hugged him from the back. “It doesn’t matter if Father approves or not. If Joshua loves the girl in question, he can go ahead and marry her.” The man said as he broke free from the woman’s em

    “Mom, you don’t have to do this just because he said so. I am your son; yes, I have been a victim of my father’s assaults so many times, but I cannot sleep with you. You birthed me.” The woman sat on top of the bed, crying. She felt empty. She didn’t know what she was going to do. She had been forced into this lifestyle, but she never wanted it. Her son wiped her tears and then covered her.“You know he’s going to punish us if he finds out nothing happened in this room.” The woman said this as tears streamed down her cheeks. She didn’t want to be called all sorts of names. Her husband sent her to sleep with another man, and when he discovered she was pregnant, it was a gain for him. But something died inside her that day.I met with someone who can help us. She is kind; she knows I am a Grayston." The woman’s eyes shot open as she turned her focus to that of her son. “I have been giving her information. All she wants is to meet with you and that you go and testify about father’s wrong

    When the man learned that Camila had managed to escape, he sighed with disgust and let out a long sigh. The moment he set eyes on the little girl, he had an instantaneous intuition that she was going to be his downfall. Even though she looked youthful, there was no mistaking the fact that she was not someone to be pushed around. He then turned his attention to the woman sitting on the seat next to him and spat on her.“You were given a simple job. A ridiculously easy task: to fuck Chris till he loses his mind, just like you did the first time you met him, but you failed! “As a display of his annoyance, he spat on the floor while simultaneously throwing a glass on the ground and breaking it. “Do you know how that could expose all of us? Do you have any idea what’s actually at stake here? If you had been good at fucking that boy’s brains out, we wouldn’t be here.” “Mr. Grayston is right, Carmen; what went wrong?” The question was posed by Mr. Cooper to his daughter because he, like th

    Christopher Grayston was tired. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d been so drained. A wife, carrying a child who might be his brother. He was so drunk, and now he had to call Henry to come and check on her since she had fainted. He chuckled to himself. The last time he was this tired, he was probably in his early twenties and had consumed copious amounts of liquor in a Bourbon Street nightclub. He looked at Claudia and thought, “I really don’t have the energy.”He pulled up his phone and called one of his best friends, Henry, to come to his house. Henry was a family doctor, so he was always a phone call away. When Henry arrived, he checked on the woman and told Chris it was just a panic attack and she was going to be fine. Chris looked at the sleeping woman and then at Henry. A tear slipped from his eye, which made Henry wonder why his rude, arrogant friend was crying.“What’s going on, man?”“She’s been fucking Joshua. All this time, I didn’t know. She tricked me; all of this wa

    “Well, well, well. Would you look at that? My brother in flash!” Joshua laughed. “You know what’s funny, Chris? What’s funny is that I still fuck her, and yet she’s married to you.” Chris was unable to control his rage; he did not realize when his clenched fists made contact with Joshua’s jaws. His anger was uncontrollable. He tried to control it, but Joshua kept pushing him to his limit.Joshua continued while coughing up blood and asked, “What, did you think that if you married her, she would forget all about me?” Chris had the intention of throwing another punch, but then he turned around and saw that people were still dancing and that no one was paying attention to them.However, if he continues to attack his brother, people may start paying attention to them instead. “You are such a loser; I fucked her even yesterday; she is mine, big cock or not; she left all that big tool for my small one, you know why? What Claudia and I had was real love, and you just couldn’t stand that. You

    Chris had the impression that someone had poured a bucket of ice-cold water over him, which soaked him thoroughly and robbed him of all his strength. Leaving him with a lot of unanswered questions. Questions that could only be answered by his wife. Since Joshua was the first to introduce Claudia to the family, his brother doesn’t believe he didn’t know she was his woman. But the fact of the matter is that Chris wasn’t there, and he was also clueless that his grandfather disapproved of their relationship. Now, not only does he have to deal with a burden, but also a pregnant wife who is almost certainly plotting something. The question that his grandfather had asked him was still running through his thoughts and mind at the same time: “Are you sure it’s yours? Chris, I’m sorry, but I don’t believe a word that comes from that woman you call your wife.” “Am I sure?” He muttered to himself incoherently. He was a disaster in human form. His life had been carefree, and he had never been th

    Flashback Christopher Grayston has never been one to settle for less than what he deserves, as evidenced by the fact that he is capable of snagging any lady he desires. He couldn’t take his eyes off the lovely woman who was sound asleep next to him. He couldn’t help but let out a chuckle as he thought about how, throughout his life, women had always been vying for his attention, but he had never been the object of a woman’s ardent affection. He had always treated those who hurled themselves at him with disdain. There was something strange about her that he needed to find out, and he needed to find out as soon as possible. For some reason, he felt like the intimacy might cost him so much. Sure, the woman was a good fuck, but nothing was more important to him than building his own empire. Not even a woman. He was the boss. No one in San Diego challenged him. Especially not a woman. But the woman in his hotel suite right now had approached him and initiated sex. She certainly gave o

    As Claudia stood by the window of her hotel room, taking in the fresh air of the new country, a breeze of clean air blew through the space. The hotel exuded a heavenly aroma and had a taste that was reminiscent of luxury. The very same luxury that she is clearly trying to acquire by courting the haughty billionaire.The curving location was surrounded on all sides by tall evergreens and aspens that rustled in the breeze. Each sprig of greenery was pointed in the direction of her room. The thought of starting over was very appealing to Claudia. A new beginning with the younger brother rather than the one who is the eldest. She remained motionless by the pane of glass as she looked around desperately for the man. After what seemed like an eternity, she found the person she was looking for, and she smiled broadly as she did so while humming an upbeat tune. After that, she looked off into the distance. One could say that the hotel had a siren because there were no signs of thunder boomer

    Flashback 2 There was absolutely no way that Joshua would have put a woman ahead of what he had labored so hard to achieve. Although he loved Claudia, he did not love her enough to risk his job as CEO for her. He dialed Claudia’s number on his phone, and she answered almost as soon as he did, giving the impression that she had been waiting for his call. The man had just started breathing on the other side of the line. How should one break the news to a woman to whom one has just proposed that one has prioritized one’s career over the other? He expelled a long sigh before beginning to speak. Joshua: It is necessary that we meet.Claudia: Time and place.Joshua: I will text you. Joshua ended the call, texted the woman the location where they needed to meet, and then left almost instantly. When he arrived at the restaurant, all the tables were taken, and it looked like there was a party for a prima donna. When Claudia arrived, she looked gorgeous, but he had to prioritize his work bec
