"Why?" She stuttered."Because you won't be able to eat. Right sweetheart?" Julienne said as she leaned closer and placed a seductive kiss on my cheek, lingering for a bit longer."Well, I don't care." She said dryly, looking away.I was surprised by the tone she was using. She is normally soft-spoken or that's what I think."Okay, number four for this lady please," Julienne said with a sweet smile before I could stop her from ordering. The waiter flustered and then noted down."So Zuriel how's Brielle as a wife?" Emma asked me ridiculously batting her eyes.I heard Samuel groan and I don't blame him since all we were doing was talking about her."There's a room for improvement," I replied bluntly, it's true though she could improve.She glared at me and I smirked. I'm sure she is using all kinds of 'sweet' words for me. Before she could say anything the waiters arrived with our meals. They placed in front of us and Samuel told them to refill everyone's flutes. I took a look at her pl
Brielle POVI knew something was off tonight, that's why I didn't wanted to go at all in the first place. How stupid of me to think nothing would happen tonight. From the moment he invited me I knew it. And yet I trusted him like a fool. I never ever felt so humiliated in my entire life. I agree I am not as rich as they were but that didn't mean they had to make me feel like trash.'I had it coming.' I felt like laughing but ended up crying more.I kicked an empty trash on the road furiously. I felt pathetic crying my eyes out for people like them. Ever since I left from there I kept thinking that why is god so kind to people like them? Why did he had to blessed them with so much money but didn't even bless them with a soul.Am I that pathetic that they had to insult me?Is my fault that is decided to marry him to save my dad's company for which he worked so hard for.Or was it my fault to believe maybe he is different. I really thought maybe he is hiding himself from the others. Mayb
Shit.I chose to ignore it. What if he tried something else? I don't even have my pepper spray with me and there wasn't even any houses around I could ask for help. I started to pick up the pace."I will pay you twice.""Get lost." I managed to say between my clattering teeth."Okay I will pay you thrice." This sentence made me rile up. I turned around and the driver stopped the car immediately."Listen you desperate prick... just go away." I cut my sentence when I realised it was Zuriel's friend, Samuel, who was grinning at meHe leaned over the passenger side and opened the door. He gestured me to sit inside. I stared at him not knowing what to do. He is after all his friend that I barely know but looking at the situation I was in I couldn't decline either. There was no sign of any other transportation."Thank you but I will manage." I replied him politely.He laughed at me loudly. What the hell? My deathly glare managed to stop him laughing."He is right. You are stubborn, even in
I went upstairs, not caring how awkward it must be for the two. As I was about to enter my room, I saw my reflection in one of the mirrors and grimaced at myself. I look like shit. No kidding, I had panda eyes from all the crying and my hair was fuzzy. I have to give credit to Samuel for not saying anything. I quickly took a shower and joined them. Surprisingly, Samuel and Analia were getting along perfectly. After some time, Samuel decided to go home."Isn't he just beautiful?" Analia muttered dreamily when he left, and I just laughed.She asked me about my night, and I told her everything. We never hid anything from each other back there in high school, so why now? Let's say she didn't take it in a good way. It took me one hour to explain that I was really fine and to make her get rid of the baseball she had in her hands.As I rested on my bed, I couldn't help but think about what Samuel told me. He said he had been through a lot, and I could tell by the way he would switch his mood
As soon as we came out of my car, I helped him to get inside the mansion.He can't even walk properly in his drunken state, so, after a debate with myself,I've decided to drop him off towards his room.It will be the very first time for me to go to my husband's room. We've already loved in separate bedrooms as this marriage is nothing but a contract which was destined to end after 19 months.I just don't know what happened to me, but this thought makes my chest squeeze, making me feel so uncomfortable aroundI was supposed to be very happy that, finally, I would be able to get freedom from him after 19 months, but then also, my heart was so hurting with this thought of leaving him.My feet involuntarily moved with his. He led me into his room and shut the door behind me.If you thought his living room was cool, wait till you see his bedroom. In the middle, there was the biggest size bed I've ever seen in my entire life. Adorned with black and grey sheets and cushions, There were few b
"In the kitchen, downstairs," I said loudly, letting her know where I was.It took her five minutes to find the kitchen, and by that time, I was making coffee for myself. I took a long look at her appearance, and I busied myself so I wouldn't get caught staring at her. Her dress was riled up to her thighs, offering me a view I could enjoy all day. Her hair was open and all messed up, giving her a sexy morning look. How strange is it for her to be in my place looking like she has just been fucked up without us even doing it? The icy blue eyes were staring at me in shock."Morning." I greeted her softly.She gently smiled at me first, and then her smile turned into a scowl, as if she remembered what I did to her, and she glared at me deathly. Her face was set in a frown as she looked around for an exit, I suppose. I knew I quickly had to do something, otherwise she would never forgive me and the guilt would eat me alive."Let me explain... please."Her face was deadpanned but she made n
"Bad enough to live with you even after you scared the hell out of me." She smiled, but it didn't quite reach her eyes."Do I scare you, Brielle?" I asked her, momentarily stunned. I know I can be intimidating sometimes."A bit."I can't do this. I can't take advantage of her weakness.Do you want the money and investment? You don't have to work for me. I can help you. " I offered herShe looked surprised for a minute but then resumed eating the ice cream."Thank you but no thank you." I'd rather pay back myself. I don't need any more favors. "Jesus, she is so stubborn."I mean it, Emberly." You don't have to pay me back immediately. Take your time. " I tried once more."Am I that bad? I will try my best. " Her voice was so low, almost a whisper.I sighed deeply, feeling pity for her.Pride and stubbornness are her dangerous qualities."So how are we going to make this work?"What was it about her that compelled me to learn more about her?"I don't know. You are perfectly fine when y

He was a man seems in his mid-sixties and he has forest green eyes and an ugly scar behind his eyes"So, finally you saw my darling," He asked me and comes near me. He lifted his hand to touch me but, I quickly jerked backward"Don
"You didn't attract from me," He said to smirk while coming towards me I started going backward, soon I bumped into a wall of the kitchen he cage me between his arms his eyes are on my lips, I blushed so hard feeling his intense gaze over me and the next thing he does is very surprisingNext moment he pressed his lips over mineI quickly grabbed the hem of his shirt in a halt with a small gasp, he is kissing me His lips brushed mine. Not innocent, like a tease, but hot, fiery, passionate, and demanding. I want to pull away before I lose myself, but I can't seem to...In this minty moment, my senses have been seduced and I can no longer think straight. "Eternity," he whispers slowly, prolonging each letter as if to savor them. I arched my head back closing my eyes, when his hand reaches my thighs and he clutched my waist so tightly, my heart fluttering at his voice as I clasp my hands on either side of his shoulders and gripped his shoulders. Never before has my name ever felt so wonder
When I saw a shooting star, I quickly gripped the hem of my shirt, I am wearing simple pyjama pants with a shirt, and I have felt that familiar sensation since childhood whenever I saw a shooting star, my insides always felt so light with a strange feeling that everything is going to be alright soon, even though I don't know why, but somewhere I am feeling that soon everything is going to be just fine, I quickly closed my eyes and joined my hands and started making a wish to star."God', I hope that I will soon be able to show my innocence to Aaron so that his hatred for me will disappear; I'm not sure what will happen after that, but I can't stand his hatred,"!!My eyes were closed and I was slowly regressing; I don't know when I bumped into someone, but I gasped as I felt it. As I was ready to fall because of a sudden chill (dread), someone seized me and wrapped his arms around my waist possessively.I slowly opened my eyes and saw the most stunning set of crystal blue deep eyes sta
"Oof!" I yelled.Arron abruptly halted and turned around, his gaze falling on my wounded leg, and he jogged towards me."What happened, are you all right?" he inquired, frowning and lightly rubbing my hurt leg."I slipped off so my leg," I explained to him, gulping and closing my eyes as I winced from the pain in my ankle. A small amount of blood is also on the way."Seriously, girl, why are you so clumsy and silly, huh, you can't even look after yourself?" With wrinkled brows and a straight gaze into my eyes, he remarked, shaking his head.I scowled and let out a little gasp as I looked at him. "It's not my fault, what can I do if I fall by accident, you're acting as if I did it on purpose," I said to him.As my shoulders slumped back, he checked my leg again, rubbing it tenderly, and I closed my eyes, biting my lips and swallowing the anguish in my leg."I'll take you inside your room," I split my lips slightly tasting his scent as he cradled me in his arms, my head resting on his
I noticed that man who was quite helpful, He's the same age as Aaron and is dressed in an Armani suit. With black hair and sea-blue eyes, he is rather attractive, but not as much as Aaron."Thank you," I said earnestly, my eyes crinkling."Anything for a gorgeous lady," he remarked with a grin."Well, my name is Issac Raccio, and I am the CEO of Raccio Communications and Limited Cooperation," he says. He smiled as he spoke to me."Oh, my name is Eternity Grang......, Um Knight," I said.He took my hand in his and kissed it."So, you're Aaron Knight's wife," he said, maintaining eye contact with me.I nodded and shifted my gaze to the way.He spoke to me while squirming and said, "Your name is genuinely very charming, beautiful name of the beautiful lady.""Thank you again for your kindness," I told him, noting that it was thoughtful of him to give me with tissue so quickly; otherwise, a chocolate stain would ruin my beautiful gown, which would be quite uncomfortable.He had said to
Wow, Eter, you are very stunning.Olivia chirped, her fingers splayed and one palm covering her eyes, beaming as if she saw Lilly Collins in front of her.I'm dressed to the nines.The crimson fuchsia high-low dress is cut vertically at the hemline, making it short in some places and long in others. The sheath prom gown clings to the body and conceals nothing.It clung to my body like a second skin.It's stunning.I don't know much about cosmetics or getting ready, so I asked Olivia to help me pick out a dress and apply my makeup for today's banquet party, which I'll be attending with Aaron."Wow, Eternity, you are looking so gorgeous," Amy exclaimed as she entered the room." Aaron is really lucky to have a gorgeous wife like you darling.""Thank you," I replied as I examined myself in the mirror as Olivia styled my beautiful brown hair."Look," Amy said, pointing to a pair of stunning diamond earrings. "Mr. Knight said you have to wear this to the party."I took the box from her and
I consciously opened my eyes from my slumber while lying in my bed, and I felt a soft quilt about my waist.I'm not sure how I ended up on the bed; I vividly remember passing asleep on my room's floor.Then I wiped my eyes, and the first thing I noticed was Aaron sitting on my bed, watching at me with concerned filled eyes. This was the first time I noticed he was concerned about me, and I sat up on my bed, knowing he was the one who placed Oilment and medicinal bandage on my wound."It doesn't hurt much," I told him, expecting to see a glimpse of hope in his eyes that he cares about me.My heart is rushing so quickly as I feel his deep gaze over me, halt at my lips, then my breasts, then return to my eyes."I know you care about me," I told him with a smile.That sweet expression in his eyes transformed back to a cold and harsh one when he understood what I was saying."No, I don't care about you; I only did this because I'm the only one who can damage you; no one else can." He mumbl
