"Are you in love with that bastard Camilo?" He finally said the words and she burst out more in tears moving close to him to touch him. He pulled his hand from her pointing a warning finger at her. His eyes were shut as he tried to process the feelings that swarm into his heart. "You're not in love with him Camilo. You're my sister, and he is our enemy." He said grabbing her shoulders and his gaze boring into hers."Theo I swear to you. I tried to fight it...."No! No Camilo! You don't love him, tell me you don't love him!" He yelled panting heavily. Camilo couldn't utter a word again so she fell to her knees letting her tears drench her. "I... I didn't mean to betray you this way Theo. I swear it, I didn't. I never wanted this to happen but I just couldn't stop it, no matter how hard I tried....""Stop talking, just stop talking!" He yelled and went to take one of the stools in the room. He was raging and threw the stool across the room destroying more things."Theo!" Camilo yelle
CassieI took two plates of sealed cookies from the table, one for Knight and the other for Angel. Camilo's comment about my cloth still got me blushing and I thought of how Knight would react when he saw me. I hastened my steps to Angel's office after I was told he had been there all day, poor guy, he couldn't afford to run into Thea now that he had made his decision to let her go. I knew he was deliberately delaying the news so that he could have Thea around a little longer. With a wide smile on my face I got to his office only to be told that he had left a while ago.I sighed feeling disappointed but went ahead to drop the cookies on his table, I left a note on top of it letting him know I was the one who brought it. Let's just say I added 'I love you' to the the note. Now I had one more cookie to deliver and my heart was acting up, pounding loud against my ribcage. I felt my face turn red as well as a blush crept to the surface. My fingers tickled over the round edge of the pl
CassieI turned away with my lips still spread in shock then I shut my eyes giving an embarrassing expression which Florentine got to see. I dipped my head slightly swearing within myself, I didn't want to head back to my room because I believed he would look for me there or maybe he did already. "There you are...." I heard Knight speak and I gave Florentine a pleading look asking her to help me out but she shrugged backing out before I could convince her further. "I thought we were to have the cookies together. I was surprised to see you left already ... Even without telling me." He stressed the last words, laying emphasis. I could feel him standing behind me now and I felt nervous. "You were in his room?" Florentine whispered shocked and amused at the same time. I gave her an eye sign not to speak of it any further as Knight now stood before us. "Cassandra?" He called my name in full and that gave me chills. I cleared my throat getting ready to make an excuse."I didn't tell you
"Seeing me naked, did you like what you saw?"I gasped, my lips parting in shock at his bluntness. How the fuck did that just come out of his mouth? I blinked severely staring at his amused face. He was bold and it was fucking hot. "I..eh...." I shut my mouth back giving up whatever I had to say. The images of his naked body in the shower flooded my head, the way he looked at me and smiled and the way he was staring at me now got me scared. I looked at the door and back to him and his eyes warned me not to think about it. "What are you going to do to me?" I said seeing no choice left for me here. He warned me yet I dared him by coming here. I had myself to blame. "I'm not sure Cassandra. You came here even after I warned you." He said and another gasp leaves my throat and my body tremble slightly. I feel scared amidst my excitement. Simply put, I was overwhelmed that I couldn't take all this heat. "Knight..." I whisper and try to free my legs from his enclosure but he presses his
Knight knelt before me on one knee. Gently, he pulled down my shorts down to my feet and cold air slapped against my thighs making me feel chilly. I stared down at him as he glued his eyes to my naked lower half with nothing but admiration which made me wonder if there was something special about what he was looking at. He loved me and that was enough to get such reaction. Knowing that I heard his heart only made this experience get more exciting. Knight bit his lips and stared up to look at me. I swallowed hard feeling my throat go dry. He took his gaze back to my pussy and it got me shivering. I was naked before him. He had never seen me naked and it made me nervous. Knight soon touched my thighs causing me to stiffen at the warmth that enveloped my body from his touch. He pressed both hands on both thighs and rubbed it such that it aroused me twice as much. "Mmm...." I moaned and he brought his lips closer to my skin. He breathed warm air into it and then he kissed it, so s
AngelThe Casino was tomorrow and here I was sitting with my rival's half sister who was in love with me and her actions the reason Thea collapsed and hated me beyond redemption. I told myself not to blame Lola, that would be too low of me. Seeing her kiss me was the last straw for Thea but I had hurt her in more ways than I did that day so if anyone was to be blamed it was me. We sat opposite each other in a private space which I secured at a top restaurant. I couldn't afford letting Lola come to the mansion after what happened the last time so I let her choose this place for our meeting. We stared at each other for over a some seconds without saying a word to each other. She asked to see me and even though I knew why I was here I wanted her to speak first. "I'm glad you made out time to see me Angel." She said and I squinted my eyes briefly. I was only here because of her text. I wouldn't have agreed to this meeting because I already got her message. I just didn't want her to feel
TheaFor the few days Carl had been around I had made out time to stay with him. He didn't know anyone here like he knew me and since he had vowed to stay until Angel decided to let me go, I had to be his best company. I took the cookies to his room, I was proud of myself for helping out with the baking process so I hoped he liked it. It had been up to a minute since I began knocking on his door and I was getting worried as he wasn't answering. Just when I was about to turn leave and call for help, Carl answered the door but unlike the other day he seemed to be intentionally blocking the way. I looked at him confused but he wasn't moving so I gave him the cookies instead. "I made it with Camilo and Cassie. I just thought I'd get some for you." I said breaking the silence between us. "Oh... Thank you." He answered taking it with a smile. "I'm sure I'll love it." He said and I knew something was up with him. He knew I sucked at cooking and never hid his opinion about my skills or ha
Thea I let out an angry sigh returning my gaze back to Leo. "I'm sorry I can't teach you further.""Did your boss say so?" I asked sounding pissed but he remained silent so I brushed passed him and walked towards Angel and Knight who stood side by side. I saw Cassie hurrying towards my side as well. "Thea wait!" She called but I didn't stop until I stood in front of Angel. He looked guilty and not sorry. Why was he trying to rip me of the little happiness I found? "Was it you?" I asked feeling more annoyed now that I looked at his face. "Why are you bent on making my life miserable? Can't I have a little fun at least after everything you've done to me!" I yelled and he wavered as his eyes softened towards me. I hit a nerve and I'll do it a thousand times to see him hurt. It hurt me already that despite everything I suffered I couldn't pay him back as much as I wanted. "I never said a thing Thea...." "So why did Leo back out all of a sudden? It's you! Your very presence intimida
Chapter 4 I thought catching my husband making love to my bestfriend was the cruelest sight I could ever see but the pain that came with him making love to her in my helplessness and going ahead to propose was out of this world. I had no idea how I was able to survive but Miguel and Nicole were not done with me. A week after Miguel had proposed, he made arrangements for me to be transfered to a care givers home where he paid for my treatments and care. Back then, I had wondered how he intended to get married while he was still legally married to me but one day, he returned with a court document that permitted him to file for a divorce without involving the second party. He had knelt in front of me that day, explaining how he needed to move on with his life. He apologized for everything he had done and went on to be a bastard by saying he would have wanted me to do the same if he were in my shoes. He had no idea what it meant to be in my shoes. I had been here for a month now, no
Chapter 3 "It hurts." I could hear my voice echo in my head. My head hurt. I could feel a weight in my eyes as I struggled to pull them open, when I finally did, what I saw were blurred images, I could hardly make out the meaning only the image before me. I tried to move something else, my hand maybe but I had no feelings there. I tried to talk but I couldn't find my voice then I heard someone speak. I listened carefully and could finally make out who the sound belonged to. A familiar pain struck me, one that I desperately wished would seize and never return. It was the pain from betrayal. The cruelest form of it. "I think Racheal has suffered enough Miguel, It's time for us to let her go." What was that witch talking about? I yelled within me, recognizing the female's voice to be no other than Nicole, my best... I swore at myself for almost giving her the title. So I meant, my ex-bestfriend. "I know it's hard to pull out your wife from life support but it's the best thing you c
Chapter 2 Racheal "Miguel! Nicole!" I cried out their names. My voice almost got lost with those two words as the weight of my heartache was carried in my voice. Tears spilled uncontrollably from my eyes. I was still praying that I was caught up in a vivid dream. As if catching them cheating wasn't enough, I saw Nicole open her eyes to meet my gaze, shock enveloped her but then her eyes went dreamy instantly as my husband was still ramming his way through her. "M-miguel... Your wife." She managed to stutter but Miguel wasn't stopping. He made love to her like a wild beast breaking what was left of my heart. " Miguel...." Nicole called again to warn him but he didn't stop. "I can't stop, I'm about ahhh!" He made one last deep thrust into her releasing a deep groan as well. I gasped, panting for air as I couldn't bear the sight any longer. I clutched on the ground hitting my chest as if to stop the pain. It was after Miguel had released inside Nicole did he seem to realize my pr
DIVORCED! MARRIED HIS RIVAL Chapter 1 Racheal Who would have thought that an innocent surprise to my husband would turn into my worst nightmare? It was two days to my wedding anniversary with Miguel Elliot, my husband and highschool sweetheart. We had been in love for seven years and were married for a year now. He was my everything, I trusted him more than I trusted anyone. Even though he had promised to be back before our anniversary, I was too impatient to wait so I decided to visit him in the next town where he had a business meeting. I hoped he liked my surprise. "Mrs Elliot, I'm sorry but you can't go in." Maya, his personal assistant said, I could see the way her hands trembled and the way her entire body fidgeted when she spoke. At first I understood her, she was just doing her job but when she kept on insisting that I couldn't see my husband I became annoyed. "Are you sure you know who I am?" "Of course I do, you're Mrs. Elliot but I'm really sorry. My boss instruc
Epilogue Thea was five months into her pregnancy, and as agreed by her and Angel, they were going to do a gender reveal with the entire family. Decorations had been set up for the day, and they decided to use blue and pink as the general color theme, representing the male and female gender.Angel and Thea weren't the only ones with preferences for their child's sex. While Thea wanted a boy who looked like Angel, Angel wanted a girl who looked like her. Similarly, Camila and Caspian wanted a boy so he could be Casimir's age and play with him, while Cassandra and Knight wanted a girl. Cassie wanted a girl she could twin with in dresses, play with makeup, and do other fun things. Knight wanted the same because they already had a boy, and it would be balanced to have a princess too.Florentine kept her preference to herself; one could say she simply wanted another baby in the mansion, regardless of gender.While Louisa and Scott also wanted a grandkid, it did
The joy Angel and I felt when we got the news of our pregnancy was out of this world. We had decided to shift our honeymoon to three months later, so that we could truly savor each other during that time.Before we left for our honeymoon, we had a general gathering with everyone and announced that we were expecting a baby. We had asked Florentine to keep it a secret until that very moment. The entire house erupted with excitement. I had not expected such an intense reaction from everyone. They instantly started debating what gender they wanted, each with their own personal reasons.I thought surprising everyone was all the surprises I had to give until we went for our honeymoon, but Angel had something for me too.Angel revealed to me his new tech company building. I had no idea he had launched an app that had been running for the past four years. I was so proud of him but had questions."Why did he do drugs if he had all this?" I asked. I also wanted to know if he funded all that thr
TheaI was throwing up for the fourth time since four in the morning. I was exhausted, and it was evident through the bags that formed under my eyes. I hated the way I felt. This had started two days ago, but I hadn't thought much of it, remembering that I'd tasted something my belly rejected the smell of earlier. I still felt irritated by the food and thought it had to be the reason, but after throwing up at night and then four times into the morning, it was getting suspicious.Angel hadn't slept at all last night; he'd been there for me, making sure my situation didn't get worse. He'd tried to convince me to let him call Florentine over, but I wouldn't let him.We even missed breakfast, and Florentine had to check on us that morning. That was when we told her about my symptoms. Florentine twisted her lips trying not to smile, she seemed amused. We knew what she was suspecting, but she wouldn't say and only asked us to drop by at the clinic so she could conduct some tests.The oth
AngelAfter our wedding, Thea and I didn't go to our reception immediately, we had agreed to go see my mum like we did after our engagement. To show her that we were finally married, so we drove over to the hospital from the church. Driving to the hospital, I felt emotional but it wasn't sadness that my mum was vegetative and couldn't be with us in our happiest day, It was gladness that I could proudly tell her that I got my girl. "Let's go see mum." I had told Thea and she excitedly nodded, showing off her ring. Once we got to the hospital, I weaved my hand into Thea's hand and took her to mum's room. We sat before her, placing our hands above hers. "Mum...." I called and felt tears sting my eyes. I tried to laugh it off but it kept spilling. I had never cried this much in a day in my entire life and Thea was mostly the reason. "Go on my love. You can do this. I'm sure mum wants to hear." Thea encouraged me and I nodded finding strength in her support. "Oh God! I wish she was p
AngelThe moment I saw Thea step into the church, my entire world froze, time stopped like it never did before. I could hear myself gasp so clearly, the way my heart raced, I could even swear that I heard the way my blood flowed through my veins. That was how quiet the world around me went so that I could concentrate on what matters, on the one person that mattered the most....Thea. She was otherworldly, she was the prettiest human on earth. No one, I meant absolutely no one could compare, no one could beat her beauty in my eyes. Her soul was the purest and her love was the purest form of love I had experienced in a human. She had come into my life and completely captivated me, without my permission, without holding back at how much love she could make me feel for her. She was the essence in my existence. She was everything to me. I was the luckiest man on earth to have her standing before me, confessing her love to love me despite everything. I was the luckiest to have her be my
