PEARL’S POV~“Yes Tilly, just until he regains his memory,” I said, “wait hold up, look I've got a man, and I dont think he’d understand I have to pretend to be someone else’s wife” she complained.I scoffed, “didnt seem like that earlier” I whispered, with a little jealousy.“Excuse me?” she asked trying to understand me.“it's just for some time, we already know the truth but he doesn't we need to keep him in this reality until he figures it out himself” I stated.“Im not comfortable with any of this pearl, you saw how he was acting with me earlier, he thinks im Lola!” she spat.“Tilly im sorry you are going through all of this, but I assure you it will be over in a few weeks tops, right?” glancing at the doctor.“Give or take, as long as he isn't stirred forcefully to remember, it should be fine” he finished before walking back into Nico’s room.“Im honestly not okay with this pearl, how exactly am I going to deliver this role? What do I do when he wants to get intimate?”I paused
PEARL’S POV~Tilly and I rushed over to the company as quickly as we could, I called Adam on the way and he couldn't believe such a thing had happened.“What do you mean? Didnt they inform you they were coming? Are you trying to tell me all this stuff they are doing is illegal?” I asked.“I assure you it's very illegal, no warrant nothing, this is Jeniffer Beacon’s doing,” he said.I was annoyed, “what exactly did Nico do to this woman to be so pissed off,” I asked.“I can't go into the details, it's confidential, im on my way over to the company, the new outlet has caught wind of this, they are already there,” he informed me.“Shit!” I cursed under my breath, “And Logan? What the hell is he doing to stop this, this is his company I can't believe that asshole” “I have no idea, look I've got to hang up right now, my assistant’s on the other line,” he said before hanging up.“What’s going on? I thought we already quelled the raging heads of industries” Tilly asked scrolling through soc
PEARL’S POV~Kenji sneaking in was the last thing I saw coming, “are you surprised to see me? Did you think I had died, or better yet hoped?” he asked, wheeling the chair around before settling back in front of me.“What do you want?” I asked in a shaky tone, he terrified me, memories of Kiko lying on the table shot to death formed in my thoughts.“Where’s her son?” I asked before he could get a chance to speak, “im sorry what?” he asked.“Kiko’s son, where is he? You killed his mother, you have killed him haven't you?”He laughed, “dont worry about MY son, he is safe and where he will be raised to be a strong warrior, my ultimate right hand” he smiled.I imagined the horror the young boy would face growing up, brainwashed, forced to protect the man who killed a mother he never got a chance to know.“Then why are you here, look if I'm not down in 20 minutes they are going to know something is wrong,” I said before managing to fold my hands.“Im not going to hurt you Pearl at least not
PEARL’S POV~We got to Tilly’s not long after, she slid the key into the lock as I leaned on the door tired and worn out from a toxic and terrifying day.“I could almost die from exhaustion Tilly, can't wait to have a long nice bath,” I said with a groan.She gave a small laugh, “Well you got me this apartment, take all the time you need soaking away” She smiled as she pushed the door open.We stepped in and the image before us terrified me instantly.A young able-bodied man lay naked on the couch, a puddle of roses covered his private parts and the entire floor, and a rose clenched between his teeth.“Oh shit!” he exclaimed, grabbing a pillow to hide his huge junk, I quickly turned away.“Oh my God babe! Why are you here, I told you I was working late tonight” she yelled rushing to cover the rest of him.“I didnt know you were bringing someone over I wanted to surprise you, shit, who is she?” he inquired, I turned seeing he had covered up with sheets.“Hi” I smiled stretching my hand
PEARL’S POV~ I froze in my step, “Um this is not what it looks like, I was just on my way to ask about you” I started, whispering as the couple moaned in pleasure.“If I'd known there was going to be a show I'd have come in a little earlier” he smiled, I pushed him away from the way and took a step forward when he pulled me back.“I think this is the right spot to talk about our merger” he stated, I turned to him.I could hear pounding sounds coming from their room and they moaned in pure pleasure.“Right here?” I asked.“Yes, right here Miss Cavill” he replied.“Pearl please,” I retorted, “this isn't appropriate August” I continued, “Maybe it's not the conventional thing but im interested in how this courting turns out, so tell me, what else do you like to do apart from watching people fuck, im guessing this isn't you're first” he smiled.I was embarrassed and my cheeks flushed in shame, “No I dont do this! Look like I explained im…”“Are you a prude? You used to be married right?”
TILLY’S POV~Jason pushed his dick deep into my pussy and I moaned his name, he grabbed onto me and I clung to him desperately, “oh Jason yes” I moaned loudly, clinging onto the sheets.But my eyes were wide open, I thought about that brief eye contact with Angelo, the way his eyes ravaged me.“ are you sure you want this?” he asked.“Yes!” i exclaimed.Bur am i?Do I really want Jason right now, or do I want something else?His dick was doing just fine. I just didn't know if it was what I wanted right now.Do i not want jason.“Are you sure?” he moaned again before plunging it deeper and deeper.“Yes” I moaned, “I want it” I whispered before licking his ears. But i couldnt stop thinking about that moment, what if, just what if pearl and sophie werent in the room that day.And it was just nico and i.In that room alone, and he had looked at me like that….What would happen?I pushed against his dick as he pounded me, “ yes Jason go deeper” Id seen it one day, Nico’s dick in passing.
NICO’S POV~Is Langdon threatening my wife again? Who the hell was that on the phone? Is she safe?My mind kept reeling over and over, I dont know what the hell happened to me but the last thing I remembered was kissing Lola goodbye before leaving for a business trip so how the hell am I in a hospital?Worse still who is that strange woman who keeps challenging me like she’s my boss?No one is the boss of me no one! I was entitled to one phone call a day and a guard was stationed outside my door all day like a prisoner, “Hey!” I called, he turned to look back and I gestured for him to come in.He shook his head and continued, “Hey! Are you deaf? What kind of soldiers does Lorenzo have guarding me!”The man shook his head again and came in, “Are you deaf or something?” I asked.“No” he replied briefly, I was shocked, what the hell gives him the right to be bold enough to speak to me like that?Something is wrong and I can feel it.“I want to walk around can you get me a cane or somet
PEARL’S POV~I looked at his face, confused, something about him felt oddly familiar and that kiss.Why has everyone chosen me to spar for a kissing contest?First Nico and now August.I stepped away from him, and in the corner of my eye, I saw Jason storm out of the house.He glared at me for a while before stepping closer, a look of dread hung over him.“Watch out for that bitch up there, she’ll cut you off when you no longer hold value” he hissed before spitting close to me.August quickly pulled me away from the thick plemgh marinating in the sand.We watched him storm away before he turned to me, “what the hell was that about?” he asked, his hand still holding mine tightly.“I have no idea, but I have a feeling I'll find out soon” I replied looking up at where Tilly’s room lay bright.Did I make a mistake bringing Tilly in? Wrapping her in all this mess with Nico?And now im going to ruin her relationship with her boyfriend.I soon heard footsteps hurrying out, we turned and it w
Pearl’s POV~I was awakened by a clinking sound.I blinked and looked back at the side of the bed my husband used to sleep in, he wasn't there.At first, it felt too real and I believed it to be a dream, the type which leaves you immobile and aware, just gawking into space. Like an out-of-body experience, featuring me but not me all at once. Then her voice came to me. A voice I hadn't heard in what had been a blissful full month of my life.I turned and there she was sitting by the table in mine and Nico’s room.Camille…."Oh, don't wake up on the account of me I see you still need your beauty sleep, I wanted to stop by to say hello to the new Mrs D’angelo, I've lived here since Sophie was born to do of course I'm familiar with the room, hope you don't mind me popping in”I sat up and straightened myself on my bed. What the hell is she doing here, my heart pounding out of my chest I faced her, her eyes quizzed in curiosity as she glanced back at the space on the bed.“Don't tell m
Pearl’s pov~I turned all night, I couldn't sleep, I had to make sure Sophie was okay, but At 2:34 a.m. it arrived. A message, no words just a pictureMy husband Nico, in bed his hair was not like he left, in disarray, his belt loose, and his shirt unbuttoned. And of all the women he had to lie to me to lay with it was FBI Agent Jenny Fucking Beacon.The only FBI agent who has made our lives a living hell from the inception and Nico had found a way into her bed. The same woman who had it out for him, Nico, had been harassed by the woman for months, and now I'm thinking, has it all been a lie? Is there a secret affair between them that I've been blinded by?That was the person who intimidated me in that chilly interrogation room, tried to make me give him up and all this while he has been fucking her!I can't believe this!Her lipstick was smeared, and her lips curled arrogantly, She was fully clothed beside him her fingers trailed his back, as if she had a claim to make. I was ha
Nico’s pov~Four weeks….In that blissful month, I experienced sex like no other.There was an unspoken passion between Pearl and me…Something I once felt with Lola, this raw energy to own each other's bodies in that moment.Unmistakable pleasure.And there came the Peaceful mornings, dinners full of laughter, and kisses that lasted longer than they should in public.It's been hard trying to keep this newfound connection away from staff seeing as Camille was still gone.DM Holdings was finally in a good place and that had shocked Logan as well. August Winters became the latest head of industry at DM Holdings.His technology caused a shocking stir in the market, and different investors started flooding in. Finally, I was back to power and we became the power couple of the business world, soon my old clients all started to reach back to me.New ones came too and so did my reputation in the mafia world grow.Nico D’angelo was untouchable, somehow they found out I'd been in a coma and
Nico’s POV~With Camille strangely gone, It was quieter than usual in the house, my daughter Sophie spent the night with us and we had managed to take her back to her room without her knowing.And now it was just Pearl and I in the room, there was an awkward silence between us ladened with memories of the event preceding us.I looked up to see her beautiful face but all she did was look away.There were unspoken words that neither of us was prepared to confront. Pearl was wearing one of my dress shirts, her hair still wet from the shower, and she sat by the fireplace in our bedroom. I could see that she wasn't reading even though she was leafing through a book.She kept sighing so many times, and I thought to myself how can I unburden her?But my pride won't let me, the moment she sees my weakness she walks away.Lola did and I'll never forgive myself for giving her that chance.But Since the rescue, she has remained at my side.I watched her for a while as her body softened by the
Camille’s POV – The air stuck in my chest and im unable to breathe. Staring at my reflection, my hands trembled aggressively as I held onto the edge of my vanity. I picked up my brush and struck it at the television.“Fuck I want her dead!”My chest is pumped faster and faster as my eyes bulge out with hate. My flawlessly painted lips are pushed into a narrow line. My mind keeps repeating the headlines. ‘A Love Like No Other: DM holding owner, Nico D’Angelo and his new wife, his appointed Ceo Pearl Cavil, Survive Another Attack!" I want to yell, scream the roof down!I should be Nico’s wife not that bitch who just strutted in like she owned the place. This was meant to be handled by Kenji, but he has done a pathetic job of killing her!Simple clear instructions!Kill her and let the child Go!Pearl should be dead and decaying in a ditch, out of sight and out of fucking mind. Rather, she is alive and absorbing all the pity while draped over Nico like a tragic heroine. Oh Go
Nico’s POV ~Mr Winters is a charming man, isn't he? Suddenly logan was no longer my competition, it was a strange-looking man.Making Pearl my wife in the way I did, without raising suspicions or making Camille so on edge that she’d release my documents to my enemies was the perfect plot.It took the grace of God in me not to snap his neck in two the day I married her.He dared to kiss my wife!I've been surveilling him, scratch that've been surveilling everyone Pearl has been in contact with, forgive my obsession but I can't help it.Some have soon disappeared overnight and she would never know.Camille, I had plans for her, I just can't come through on them yet, I'll hurt anyone who hurts my wife a thousandfold and only I know that.As it prepared to take off, the private jet's engines hummed as it sat shining in the sun. August had pulled all the strings to ensure Pearl and Sophie enjoyed a sumptuous three-day getaway.Reasons I'd never know but I knew my obsession would soon urg
Pearl’s pov~Something happened last night, something I had to remember.Nico averted my gaze now and again but there was this smile that lingered too often.I excused myself to go to my room when he cleared his throat, “I had them put your things in my room since we are now married….”“No!” I interjected, “I will not be staying in the same room as you, I w…”“Then you shouldn't have said I do” he interrupted.“We share a room now and that’s final” I looked back at him, unable to understand what he was thinking.I fumed and raced up the stairs to my room.I couldn't for the life of me understand what I'd put myself into.I'm married again!I sobbed, picking up the snow globe from the dresser, I stared hard at it.I shook it and The globe whirled. I couldn't tell if the sluggish, creeping haze clouded my mind or if the wind rushing past me was to blame. I was unable to release my fingers from the around the round object, I fixated on it like my life depended on it.My mind let loose
Pearl’s POVThe D'angelo Residence had turned into an endless battlefield fought with whispers, sidelong glances, and carefully sown seeds of doubt and confusion rather than the typical swords and bloodshed. Camille was an experienced warrior in matters of this nature.She was a natural-born Amazon displaced from her people. Although Sophie had always been a bright and self-reliant child, something felt strange tonight, it lingered in the air and I could taste it. I didn't come out from my new room until later that evening when I was in there thinking about the worst.If this is a fake like Camille said then have I just destroyed my chances with August forever?Sophie, sat across from me at the dinner table, frowning and picking at her mashed potatoes, stabbing them with her fork, as if she were punishing them for something. "Not hungry, sweetheart?" I asked, attempting to sound light, she’d noticed I'd been distant all dinner long.“I overheard Aunt Camille talking,” Sophie admit
Am I in a dream or is this real?I was drifting…. My body felt weightless, stuck in a dream that didn't feel like mine, it felt like I was watching another version of me getting her happy ending.A part of me that wanted Nico too, somewhere between truth and illusion. Like a scene from a movie I wasn't sure I had agreed to star in, the wedding played out in front of me, I saw myself shocked beyond reasonable doubt, my mind in endless fractions, imagining and reimagining scenarios.Nico was in front of me, something I couldn't quite put my finger on smouldering in his black eyes. What was it that covered his beautiful hazel eyes as he gazed upon me?Love? Want? Lies? As he spoke his vows, his smooth and deep voice enchanted me.And I still couldn't believe what was happening. "I knew” he started, touching my lips softly, “from that night I saved you from that car wreck I knew you were going to be my wife” he smiled.What were these words flowing out of his mouth?“ I recognized som
