Isabella spent the entire night taking care of Shania. It seemed she and Christian argued. Her friend never drank alcohol to the extent of getting drunk.“Is she okay?” Isabella heard Christian's voice, and when she turned around, she found him standing away from the bed.“She hasn't woken up yet… I'm sure she'll only suffer a hangover,” Isabella said and slowly walked to the other side of the bed while Christian took the left one and carefully sat beside Shania. “It's all my fault,” Christian muttered while caressing Shania's face and hair. “She had too much to drink, I'm afraid she might sleep for a while,” Isabella said, sensing how awkward the atmosphere was. “Don't worry I'll stay with her, thanks for taking care of her” Christian whispered as he glanced at Isabella. “She's my friend, I know it's hard to understand her…but please just know Shania is special,” Isabella said faintly, Christian nodded because he was aware of that“She's stubborn but trust me…she's going through
Isabella finished up her things and decided to see what Shawn was up to. Since morning, she didn't set her eyes on him.“You didn't see him, not even in the morning?” She asked the room service lady questionably. It was strange that Shawn was ghosting everyone. “No ma'am, when I came to clean…sir was not around,” the lady replied with a bow. Isabella was at a loss, this wasn't happening. It seemed Shawn was another person.“Okay, thanks,” saying that, Isabella decided to go to the bar where Shania was. After a hot afternoon at the beach with Kenny. Isabella was too tired, hence had decided to see Shawn. Unfortunately, she had no choice but to go to the bar and have a few drinks.“Sure… I'll be right there,” she said over the phone and pressed the elevator button to open. Shania was already at the bar downstairs. The elevator doors slid open, gutting Isabella's attention, looking up, she was stunned to see someone she wasn't expecting. “Shawn?” She called him and the man looked up, h
Shania smiled from ear to ear as she chatted with Raymond. The night was quite blissful. She was enjoying the time at the bar. Watching the live band play and the sexy girls dancing.“I didn't know you were into this?” Raymond chuckled as he took a sip of his drink and focused on Shania.“Wait…who is your all-time crush?” Shania asked mischievously. Since Raymond was asking a lot about her past life. Shania decided to have fun.“Well, that's a tricky one…considering that you are…” he said hesitantly while scratching the back of his head. Shania frowned, knowing full well he was acting up. Raymond noticed her cute pout and burst out laughing.“Spill it… I'm sure there has to be that one lucky girl…” she coaxed him to talk, Raymond chuckled and gulped down the entire drink from his glass and let out an exhalation.“But don't laugh,” he threw her a glare. Shania chuckled and nodded mischievously. She was going to laugh either way.“I won't,” she showed him her pinky finger. Raymond see
Kenny's feet were rooted in one place as he watched the two people he trusted lying in bed naked. The fact that they hid something so serious from him, hurt his feelings.“So, I've been a fool all this time…a fucking fool!” He yelled angrily, Isabella shook her head and tried to get up. On the other hand, Shawn tried to keep calm. Kenny didn't stay there as he stormed out of the room furiously. “This is bad,” Isabella panicked and left the bed, Shawn didn't mind. As he took his time to get out of bed. He saw how Isabella was so worked up.“We did nothing wrong,” Shawn said, getting Isabella's attention. She glanced up and arched her brows at him.“Shawn, we made a deal…your contract…it's not fair that…” Isabella tried to say, but she couldn't even finish her words. This was a mistake, she read through the terms of their contract and it was clear. She was not allowed to sleep with either Kenny or Shawn separately unless both were. “It's not your fault… I'll talk to him,” Shawn said a
“That fool will pay for this…he kidnapped me,” Shania said while drying her hair. It was pointless calling Christian names when he got away with whatever he wanted. She was done taking a shower. She settled for a bikini with denim shorts. To be honest, she loved the designer of the yacht, it was so luxurious. But of course, Christian was a Kingston. They knew how to spend their money. After making sure she was done, Shania decided to see what Christian was up to. The sun was about to set, Shania walked up the stairs and was finally headed for the top of the deck. To her shock, she found something unexpected. “Took you long enough,” it was Christian who said and tossed what looked like an apron away. Shania's eyes darted around the place in awe.“Can you tell me why you love wasting your time,” Shania said, ignoring the beauty of the place? She looked at Christian and the man was smirking at her.“Baby, for you, I'll do anything…this is nothing, just some useless thing,” Christian s
Shania's hands intertwined with Christian's hands. The man was on top of her, thrusting hard and deep. With the cold breeze blowing, her eyes turned blurry as she leaned on his shoulder and dug her teeth into flesh.“Ah, Ace…” she moaned while trying to catch her breath. The intensity of their lovemaking had her whimpering.The man seemed to be lost in passion as he kissed her more softly. Nibbling her lips and sucking on her tongue. “Y-you fucking…take my cock so good” Christian groaned, shivering as if he had been left in a furnace to burn. He couldn't handle it, making love to Shania was like he was doing it for the first time. Shania's body moved with his nails digging into his back as he slowly ground his hips, being sure to hit every spot of pleasure he could find. Hearing her moan and feeling her grip on him tighten pushed him to want to please her even more.“I'm… I'm so close…oh god yes,” “Damn it, sweetheart,” Christian moaned as he withdrew for a while and rammed back in
Shania stirred in her sleep, to realize the lovely sensation she was feeling.“Mm, Chris,” she mumbled as she shifted around until her face connected with something solid and fleshy. Rubbing her eyes a little, her lashes flickered open. Trying, certainly, to adjust to the lights.“Morning baby,” it was Christian who said, immediately Shania was awake. Glancing up, she met the man's sinister gaze.“You don't stop, do you,” she said, flashing him a disdainful look. Of course, Christian only chuckled and pulled her up until she was lying on top of him. Seeing up close. Shania hated how he looked handsome. He had the looks and ways to charm a woman in his web.“How do you feel?” Christian whispered while caressing her face, Shania leaned more to his touch. Waking up to something so warm and beautiful had Shania feeling free.“I'm okay,” she muttered as her eyes flickered open. Christian was bewitched by her beauty, her big gorgeous eyes. He couldn't help but cradle her in his arms.“Let m
“Wait, was it a honeymoon?” Isabella chuckled while adjusting her dress and carefully lay down on the small wooden beach bed. The sun was up. The beach was filled with half-naked men and women enjoying a blissful afternoon. “Don't be ridiculous,” Shania chuckled shyly and continued applying sunscreen on herself. She wouldn't call it that, but two nights away from everything and just bonding with Christian was different. “Just admit it, the man has his best interests at heart,” Isabella threw her a side glance. Shania had nothing to say. Even if she had to admit everything. Nothing would change the fact that her relationship with Christian wouldn't be accepted so easily.“I'm not sure Isa… What if…”“No, what if…just follow your heart… I've seen him and I know he wants you and only you,” Isabella remarked, arching her brows, I was taken aback by her words. She made sense, but she didn't know what was happening. “Enough about me. I don't see the guys hovering around you anymore,” Sha
Shania and Christian had finally arrived in the City of London for their honeymoon, a destination they had both always dreamed of. As they walked through the bustling streets hand in hand, they felt a sense of joy and excitement that they had never felt before. “What about your friends,” Shania reminded the man about the three friends they met the last time they came here? “We are here…for us, not them,” Christian replied with a smile, and they came to a halt. They explored the city's historic landmarks together, admiring the stunning architecture. “I didn't know you were into such things,” Shania chuckled, but Christian only shrugged. He wanted to do something normal. He would take her shopping later and enjoy her company in the evening. “I sensed you wanted something quite refreshing,” Christian said with a click of his tongue. Shania couldn't help but smile. Indeed, Ace had different sides of him. He was wild, careless and at the same time gentle. “What happened to ripped pan
There was nothing Isabella could do. She surrendered to Shawn. The man who aroused unimaginable desires. Their lips met in a fiery and passionate kiss. The world around them seemed to fade away as they lost themselves at the moment. His hands found their way to her waist, pulling her closer as her fingers tangled in his hair, deepening the embrace. Their bodies pressed against each other, as the intensity of their desire grew with each passing moment. Their hearts beat as one, the heat between them rising with every breath they took. At that moment, nothing else mattered except the fiery passion of their kiss.“Tell me, you don't want this” Shawn muttered breathlessly as he took his time stripping off her clothes. Isabella was in heat, her body set on fire by Shawn's touch. His soft kisses and vulgar words.“You want me…only I can make you feel this way,” he added as he tossed her panties away, she was lying beneath him naked. Her tender breast brushed against Shawn's hard chest each
In the soft glow of candlelight, Ace and Shania sat across from each other at a small table in Christian's cozy villa. They gazed deeply into each other's eyes, their hands intertwined on the tabletop. It was a moment that seemed to last forever, suspended in time, as their love for each other filled the room.“Finally,” Christian muttered as he took a sip of wine, it was a lovely evening. After a busy day. Everything was settled. Kenny and Isabella had gone to their hotel. Christian took Shania away to his villa for some alone time.“It's lovely, I love the surprise,” Shania whispered shyly, she didn't expect the man to make such beautiful arrangements. “I made all your favorite dishes,” Christian remarked while showing the table full of her most liked delicacies. “Looks delicious,” the food was mouthwatering. They had barely touched them as their attention was solely focused on each other. Shania reached across the table, her fingers gently brushing across his cheek as she leaned
**Two weeks later**Two weeks passed like the wind, everything seemed to be going well. Shania was more than happy as they selected a few dresses to wear to Isabella's wedding. Even Madeline was excited. Isabella had been Shania's friend for so long. She was like her sister. Madeline took it upon herself to plan the wedding at the Kingston mansion.“This should do… I can't believe we are choosing outfits on the same day,” Shania giggled, knowing they had a whole Two weeks to find something to wear.“I know right…but who would blame us when we've been busy planning the arrangements,” Madeline commented with a chuckle. “This looks right,” Madeline raised a white long dress, but Shania shook her head.“No white, you can't outshine the bride,” Shania said, which made Madeline nod in agreement. She tossed the dress away.“Come on, Mom, look for something…. I'll check on Isabella,” Shania coaxed her mother to find something. Her room was a mess, but thanks to her daughter. She was able to f
“These Kingston men are like heroes…they see a damsel distressed and hump in to save the day,” Madeline said in between laughter as both mother and daughter agreed. Shania was surprised that her mom was once a stripper. It turned out Christian's father fell in love with her and saved her from such a job.“He was my regular client…although he only hired me to keep him company…his wife died, and he offered to pay all our debts,” Madeline said helplessly, recalling the situation she was in. She had her daughter to take care of. When those thugs wanted to use her. George stepped in and looked like a gentleman. He did what saved her.“I'm sorry, Madeli…mom…” Shania said addressing her by her name when Madeline threw her a questionable look. “I should have known… I hated you for no reason,” she felt ashamed, all this time she blamed her mother for everything when she only did something to save her family.“I neglected my child…but I didn't want you to go through what I went through…that's w
This was a court marriage, Shania was a bit scared, but Christian held her hand protectively. Isabella was a remarkable friend. One in a million, she did a little makeup on her just to look presentable and fixed her hair to fit the veil. Shania was worried this would turn out to be a dream. “Relax now,” Christian whispered, noticing how nervous she was, her hand turned cold. However, Shania nodded and fixed her eyes on the civil officer. “Go on, start already,” an overjoyed Isabella said with cheers, making Shania smile helplessly. Although this was a bad idea, it wouldn't hurt to try. “You look tense, I'll hold you,” Christian muttered and held Shania's hand tightly as they both faced the man reciting the vows. The entire time, Shania's heart was racing rapidly. This was too good to be true. I listened carefully when in reality I was imagining all sorts of this. Was this what I wanted? What if I was making a mistake? “Do you?” The man's voice brought me back to reality when I gla
Emily and Ashley stood face to face, Ashley was still in her wedding dress. Although her face was smeared with makeup from crying. “I can't believe you tried to kill her,” Emily said in pure disbelief, the only thing she wanted was to separate Shania and Ace. But who knew Ashley was a psychopath? “And you helped me, dear Emily …she's lucky to have survived because I would do the same thing over again!” Ashley remarked shrewdly and slowly approached Emily who kept backing away. “You are heartless…how can you do such a thing… I'll make sure Ace doesn't marry a lunatic like you!” She was mistaken to have thought Ashley would be good for Christian. Unfortunately, she was the devil. “How naive are you…that silly girl is going to die… I'll be with Ace and not even you can stop me!” Ashley made a low yell and attempted to grab Emily's hand when she pushed her away. “You are sick Ashley…go and tell Ace what you did…or I will,” Emily warned with a glare, but Ashley burst into laughter.
Isabela and Kenny rushed Shania to the hospital. She was badly hurt, she had a myocardial infarction.“What happened to her!” Christian rushed to the operating room as soon as he arrived. Kenny was there to stop him. Let me go!” He fought to get inside. His woman was there. “Stop it bro…the doctors are in there with her,” Kenny stopped his friend from causing a scene.“This happened last night, and you kept it from me” Christian was not happy as he pushed Kenny away from him and ran his hands in his hair. The entire family had rushed to the hospital after Isabella gathered enough strength. She went to the church to deliver the news of Shania being hospitalized, “It's not like you would care,” Kenny scoffed and fixed his clothes. His friend was already in his tuxedo, which meant he was about to get married.“Isa…don't lie to me…what's going on here,” Christian walked up to Isabella and asked politely. Unfortunately, Isabella was too shaken to say a word. Her friend was hurt and figh
“Are you going to stay here and drown in your sorrow like this,” Isabella said and attempted to take the bottles of liquor from Shania. For days, she had been like this. “J-just leave me!” Shania fought to keep the bottles to herself. She didn't care about anything. All she wanted was to be by herself.“Do you think drinking will solve this problem…go out there and stop that wedding!” Isabella was unhappy seeing her friend in such a state. Shania was the jovial kind but for the past few days. She had been drinking.“Shania, stop it now…leave it!” Isabella had had enough, she gathered all the empty bottles from the floor and took them to the kitchen. On the other hand, Shania was struggling to get up. With every attempt, she ended up falling.“Come, I'll help you run a bath,” Isabella came back from the kitchen and grabbed Shania by the arm. To know she come back from work only to find her friend in such a state.“You know…hiccups… I don't need your help,” Shania remarked between hicc
