In love with a heartless billionaire ~36~
~Laurel~"Are you two still together?"I sighed. Wondering if mom knew already. "Yes. We're still together. We're just going through the usual.""Which is?"I lifted my legs on the table and ran my hand through my hair. "Mom, there is no need for you to worry. I've told you. We're fine."She stared at me in disbelief. "Are you stupid or too blind to see that he'll hurt you after this?"I was already getting angry. "He won't."She touched my arm. "Laurel--"I flared up from my chair immediately. "Mom please! Can everyone please stop telling me what to do? I'm sick and tired of everyone thinking they can just bend me however they want. I'm sick and tired of it! I wish I can just disappear to a place where I can be whoever I want without people telling me what and who to be." I said and started for the stairs."Laurel!""Mom please just leave me alone!"~*~I turned and twisted on my bed. It was nine in the morning but I didn't feel like getting up or even taking a bath. I want

~Laurel~"Mrs Hyde, I have no intention to hurt your daughter. At least not on purpose."Mom's eyes flared up. "Oh so you do want to hurt her then?""Mrs Hyde...""Aunt is fine.""Okay Aunt...""Listen here Kurt. You have no right, whatsoever to hurt my daughter. I know she won't stop defending you neither is she going to tell me what really happened but I need you to promise me. Promise me that you won't ever hurt my daughter again?"Kurt placed both hands on his knees. I knew that was a promise, he wouldn't be able to keep. As Kurt was concerned, hurt was a thing that came naturally with him. "I.. I can't promise you that, Aunt. I'm sorry. I know I should probably say I promise but.. I would be eventually lying to you. So it's better if I don't say the word. But I do promise that I'll try.""Good. At least you gave me something. Anytime you think about hurting her, just remember that you made me a promise to try not to hurt her. Is that okay with you?""Yes Aunt.""Good. And Laurel?

~Laurel~"Come for me. Now."And that was all it took for hell to break loose. I let myself go over the edge for him as he stilled, jerked a few times before climaxing into a pool of release.When the effect of the orgasms had washed away, Kurt rolled to his side, snaking one hand around my waist to pull me closer. I felt numb, brain discarded from my head and I couldn't help but ponder on the fact that Kurt was the reason behind it. He sure as hell could drive a woman crazy."How many of those have you had?" I couldn't help but let my inquisitiveness get the better of me."What?""Women. How many have you taken to bed, commanded and made feel this way?""Before or after you?"I returned him a blatant look which left him chuckling. "Kidding. Just one. I didn't actually date her," he shrugged off the mere sense of it. "But she also meant everything to me. Then."I swallowed the disgusting feeling in my throat. When I gestured to get up, he pulled me back down. "Laurel. That was then ok

~Laurel~"Oh my goodness!" I exclaimed, screwed the cap of a water bottle and downed every single content in it. "Oh my God. I am never getting on that thing ever again." I said, still shocked of the rollercoaster ride as Kurt handed me his handkerchief to help wipe my sweat."I warned you, didn't I?"I stared at him. Surprised by the fact that he didn't even flinch. He didn't scream during the ride, he just held on and kept squeezing my hand. Like he was encouraging me to be strong; me who couldn't stop screaming till I heard blood pounding in my ears."Have you been on a rollercoaster before?" I asked him as I crossed my arms over my chest."No.""You're lying, aren't you?" "Maybe it's just because my life has always been a big rollercoaster ride."I laughed. "Silly of you to think that way. Come on." I took his hand and started pulling him in the direction of a claw machine. We watched a couple try clawing out a toy and successfully, they did."Wanna try?" I asked him, taking a p

~Kurt~I stared outside my office windows, hands thrusted deep into my pockets as sweet memories of Laurel and I, completely took over my thoughts.I never imagined life with her to be so sweet and different. Being with her, I thought she would intimidate the lesser class with her money and influence, I was wrong. The woman was kind to the roots. And so beautiful. A girl with a heart of gold. My girl...with a heart of gold.I moved round to plop on my chair before picking the remote on my desk and turning on the news channel.Headline_Sean Daniel, on the edge of bankruptcy!Millionaire Sean Daniel, just lost bulks of goods to a fire that took place in Germany, the place where the goods were being shipped from.

A day later~Laurel~I called him again for the sixth time today but he didn't pick up. It was as if he had been purposely ignoring my call since yesterday and he had every right to. How could I have brought Jason to spend the night at my house, yesterday?But what could I have done?I couldn't ignore that call that came in, telling me that Jason has been in an accident and he had been detained for drunk driving. Even though we were no longer together, I couldn't have just ignored him. He was my friend and he had always been there for me. Although, like he said, part of the reason why he hasn't been himself lately was because of me. He was shattered by what I did to him. I couldn't blame him. I only blamed myself for leading him on.And now, my relationship with Kurt was paying the price for it.Fuck. Me.Gripping the bottle of hard liquor in front of me, I downed the remaining contents in the bottle and staggered over to where my fridge was, pulled out another.With a packet of cigar

~Laurel~With a smile on my face, I got down from my car, clutched my purse and walked into the Hall.The never-ending flashes of camera nearly made my sight go numb but I managed to walk through without having people jump on me. I didn't want to ditch on Freya since it was her engagement party today and she was getting married to one of Hollywood's most famous award winning actors and hundreds of celebrities were on seat. Freya was also very popular in the industry, with face and body to match. Not only that, her parents owned one of the biggest malls in the world. As soon as I stepped in, all eyes dawned on me. I wasn't nervous, not even in the slightest bit. The short silky mid-thigh red gown I wearing, hugged my curves like second skin. It had a deep V-neckline in the middle, showing off the curves of my breasts. Matching off with a black Chanel purse, were a pair of black Stuart Weitzman suede pumps. My new bronde hair was elegantly combed in a side part and tucked behind the ea

~Laurel~I was putting on my lipstick when the door opened and I saw from the mirror, the person that stepped in."I told you I didn't need help.""I never mentioned you did." Kurt said and stepped closer to me, hands thrusted into his pockets. "You're taking longer than expected.""None of your business." I spun round to face him. Without saying a word, I slowly tucked my lipstick and powder back into my bag. An awful twenty seconds of silence swept by before I spoke up. "Diana, the girl you told me about. She's here." I raised my gaze to meet his."I know. It's not rare to meet one or two past acquaintances at a party."When I didn't reply, he continued. "Tell me you're shitting me right now, Laurel.""What?""You're jealous, aren't you?" His face was void of any emotion but his voice held amusement. "I never thought there would come a day when you'd have to be so possessive of me.""Who's possessive of you? Who me?" I said and faked a laugh."Am I talking to someone else in the ro

*One year later*~Genevieve~"Hey. You ready?"Mason asked me as he walked into the room."Do I look okay in this dress?" I said, referring to the floral gown I was wearing. "I feel... really heavy, you know. I think this baby is using my energy to do kicks, don't you think?" I asked him, placing my hand over my eight months and two weeks old belly.Mason smiled and walked over to me. "You look beautiful, darling. And besides, I'm always here to lend you my strength whenever you feel too tired to carry our little Gael." He knelt before my bump and caressed it over the skimpy dress I was wearing. "Hey buddy, don't give mommy a hard time, okay? We know you wanna come out so badly but patience, little buddy, patience." He looked up at me and I smiled. Then he got up and closed his mouth over mine. "I love you, Genevieve Kenton King."I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him. "I love you too.""Now come on. Before we arrive late for your dad's birthday dinner." He held my hand as walked o

~Genevieve~Just like that. I couldn't believe it. She was gone.Gone forever. We weren't going to see her ever again.Some of the soldiers that had ran into the smoke, came out few minutes later with Gonzalez men. One was half-dead, the other was injured but very much alive. They put them both in the van and walked around to see dad. He was saying something in low tune to dad when another set of military men walked out of the already burnt and collapsed building with a burnt, unrecognizable body that seemed to have ropes attached to it. A body that was perhaps tied. Then I recalled Mirabelle being tied up before Ryder threw me out."No! My Mira...." Mom was already shaking in tears as they placed the body on a stretcher. Dad dropped to the ground in tears, mom was wailing profusely, Mariano remained stiff and unable to move, Mason had tears rolling down his eyes...none of us could even touch the body. It was Natasha who mustered up the courage to run to where the body was and embrace

~Mirabelle~"What are we going to do? He's going to kill her!" Mason exclaimed out of frustration as he plopped down on the couch, running his fingers through his hair. Mom has been trying to calm him down ever since. But it seems all her words of assurance were falling on deaf ears."My men are searching the entire city as we speak." Dad who had been on the phone came back few minutes later to the living room and said. "They couldn't have gone far. We'll get them in no time.""Hey," Mariano knelt in front of me and places his hand on lap. "Are you alright?"I shook my head."Belle, listen to me, this is not your fault.."I was trying to hold back my tears. "Yes, it is.""No, it's not. Gonzalez has been planning his escape from prison for a long time now. And it so happened to fall on the same time period of your return so none of this is your fault, okay?""Grandpa, are you going to give me to him? The bad guy?" Natasha who was in mom's arms asked Kurt who had been restless."Of cour

~Mirabelle~"Mama, where are we? What is this place?" Natasha asked me as Mariano pulled the car to a stop. I got out and so did Natasha, who looked inquisitive, looking around the place."Hello, Natasha."She turned to stare at the people standing few metres away, her whole face lightening up. "Grandma! Grandpa!"In a blink of eye, she was running into dad's open arms. "My lil baby. She looks just you, Mariano." Dad said to Mariano who was standing beside me as he ruffled her hair playfully, picking her up from the floor."I'm quite heavy, you know. Mama feeds me with good stuff." Natasha said jokingly."Well then, it's a good thing I have quite the strength then." Dad smiled as we walked into the house."Camilla," I greeted Camilla who was standing with the other servants. "I see you're still here." I said, moving into her arms. "Thank you.""Always, Mirabelle, always." She responded and we pulled away. "I'll make coffee and some toast."I nodded and she walked away. "It feels good

~Genevieve~He wasn't in bed with me when I woke up.I got up, stretched and slipped on his shirt. Then I got up and went on a mission to go look for him.I heard noise coming from kitchen area and do I just decided to follow my instincts. To my surprise, he was standing in front of the cooker, flipping something in a pan, shirtless in an apron and in a pair of sweatpants. He turned around and our gaze met."Hey. Good morning."I smiled as I made my way toward him. "Good morning. You're up early.""Yeah, I got up to make breakfast. Come on, have a seat. Breakfast is ready."I did as he told me and sat put as he served me. Breakfast was bacon, scrambled eggs, pancakes and maple syrup.As I ate, I noticed he was stealing glances at me. "What?""You're very beautiful, Gen. Very very."I snorted, hoping that was a joke. "I'm sure I look like a mess.""You look breathtaking."I met his gaze and he smiled. Then he got up from where he sat and walked around to where I was, then to my surpris

~Mirabelle~A lot of people were hovering over me when I woke up. Mom, Mariano, two women, a man, Natasha...."Natasha." I called out gently and she was the first to notice as she ran into my outstretched arms."Mama! Mama, you scared the hell out of us all." She was already crying as I brushed the tears away from her face. "Mama, we were so worried...I was so worried. Promise that you won't ever make us worry like that again."I smiled and pulled her close, her head was resting gently on my chest. "I'm fine, sweetie. I'm just...scared." I admitted softly."But why are you scared, mama? We are here for you, remember? Don't be scared, okay? Daddy is here for you. I am here for you. Grandma is here for you. Don't ever feel scared, okay? You're my best friend. I wouldn't know what I'd do if anything were to happen to you. I can't ever live without you, mama."I couldn't help chuckling as I wrapped my arm tightly over her. "Oh my sweet little red haired baby. I love you so much my darling

~Mirabelle~I stood there and watched as Genevieve expressed how she felt about Mason to Ryder. Ryder on the other seemed to be furious but he looked as if he was holding back from lashing out all on his anger on Genevieve. The moment he walked out, I decided to stay for a while. This was bad. I should be with her right now. She had just made a life-changing decision that would probably require a shoulder to lean on and here I was, hiding behind the wall.All of a sudden, she stood up. She glanced at the mirror and then stopped. But just before she could turn around, a hand grasped mine, pulling me into the shadows."What on earth do you think you're doing?""Mariano, she's my sister. I should be in there with her right now. I should--""Then what's stopping you?"I stared into his eyes."Go on. Go to her. She's your sister, right? She needs you. You should be with her right now. So why are you here?""I--I don't think that's a very good idea. She's down right now, I can't afford to a

~Mirabelle~The congregation was filled to the brim. The people present were mostly friends, elites, actresses, musicians, business elites and government officials from all over the world. From where I was seated, I could see Mariano, my friends, Gabriel and even mom. Natasha and I were both at the back row. We didn't want to draw much attention so we just hid there.Then there was Ryder at the altar, waiting like the gentleman he was. Although, there was something about Ryder. Something off about him, he didn't seem quite the man for Genevieve anymore.And then, there was the bride. Walking towards the altar with dad's arm strapped to hers. On getting to the front row, she quickly hugged mom and Gabriel before proceeding to kneel in front of the altar with her soon to be husband. After a short prayer, they were back on their feet as they proceeded to the ring part and then the exchanging of vows.Well, now it was time to declare them husband and wife."If anyone have reason why these

~Mirabelle~I was trying out the dresses, mom had brought earlier for Gen's wedding tomorrow. There was a silver splayed gown with emeralds, a beautiful black straight one with deep cleavage curve and split up the right thigh and a pink short one with diamonds stashed all over. According to her, the theme of the wedding was black and pink, if I wanted to fit in to be noticed, I'd wear pink but if I wanted to remain anonymous and hidden, I'd wear black.At first I didn't want to go. Mom and Mariano were the only ones who knew about my existence. Mariano had argued with mom about telling dad about me but she had slid him off, telling him the consequences that would result from my dad abruptly finding out about my existence. According to her, she would wine and dine him after Gen's wedding then tell him about me. As for now, I still have to remain hidden and try as much as possible to apply heavy makeups contrary to my skin tone, wear sunglasses and colored wigs. That way, they would nev
