KAMARIA POV

"I am not." My Angel opened her eyes and stared directly into mine as if to prove her point. I chuckled inside because even though she tried not to look scared her voice betrayed her by trembling as the words came out from her.

Instead of arguing I reached out to take her little hand in mine.

"What are you doing mum?" Her nose scrunched up in a cute little frown, a puzzled expression on her face.

"I am scared," my expression was serious even though I was smiling inside. She didn't buy the excuse and rolled her blue eyes dramatically at mine failed attempt at Subtlety.

Her grip in mine tightened to the point of bruising as the plane rose to the air. I decided to distract her by talking. I started telling her stories about my parents, her grandparents.

I have never talked about my family with her because I had been scared of her asking more. Of her asking about her father.

The first time she asked about him I had panicked and told her he was dead, and I have never foun

I think running after being told you'd basically be kept like an incubator and then torn away from your child and thrown out like trash would be a common reaction... staying away for 10 years? seems a little excessive. Look forward to seeing how this progresses

    KAMARIA POV A little tension settled between us as we took each other in. My daughter stood awkwardly beside me watching my best friends with curious eyes while waiting for someone to do something. The person was Jonathan who broke the rigid tension between the three of us. "Come here girl!" He closed the distance between us and pulled me into a bear hug. "I have missed you so much, Ria!" His arms tightened like knots around my waist. I slowly let go the two suitcases in my hand and raised them to wrap around him. Though his face still remained handsome as ever, Jonathan have gotten a little thicker around the waist. I don't know how long we stood in each other's embrace before he pulled back to regard me with those twinkling grey eyes. "You look very stunning Ria." I blushed, before paying back the compliment. "You too." "Hrmph!" He scoffed as if my words were falasie. "Fat is what I have gotten," he mocked patting his slightly protruding abdomen. I chuckled shaking my head

    DAMIEN POVThe change in her attitude puzzled me. I looked down to my watch wondering if I have the time to deal with this . My eyes swung from my watch to my wife like a ping pong as I quickly debated my next action. Leaving without addressing this could put me on the naughty list and then it will be dry spells for weeks. Yep, Lily has done it before. Deprived me of sex for weeks just because she was mad at me for not remembering her birthday two years ago. It wasn't my fault, work was hectic and I was trying to keep my father's company from being bought out from under my nose. Still trying. I decided on dealing with this even if it will mean few more minutes late to work. When I got to the bed she has her back towards me. "Did I do something wrong?" I asked as softly as I could possibly sound so as not to piss her off further. When Lily is like this she becomes passive aggressive and anything I do tends to piss her off. She ignored me for few seconds before desiring to give me

    DAMIEN POV"I don't like the way you smell," I rudely cut into her run down of my itinerary for the day. "Huh!" I looked up to her shocked gaze, my expression freezing. "If you wear this perfume tomorrow I will sack you." Her pale blue eyes dilated in fear as she nodded her head like a lizard. I returned my attention back to the computer screen and let her finish what she was doing. She dismissed herself when she was done because I didn't bother looking up from what I was doing. "I want a cup of coffee and a breakfast," I told her just before she got to the door. "On it," she said like some eager puppy and almost ran out the door. I tried to work but my mind wouldn't stop thinking about the fight with Lily. What was that all about? That I couldn't figure out what went wrong this morning was making me restless. I was so glad when ten minutes later my secretary interrupted me with my coffee and breakfast. I ignored her as she placed them down on my desk, and then quietly left.

"I love you, and what happened between your father and I is in the past, I don't want you to ever think that any of it was your fault. Okay?" She nodded wiping her eyes. "Will you tell me what happened between you and dad?" "Maybe someday, but not today baby, you need to get ready for school." She nodded before throwing herself into my arms. "I love you, mummy," she said softly before withdrawing to get out of the bed, her cheerful mood returned making me sigh inside with envy. While my daughter went into the bathroom to take her bath, I decided to head downstairs to the kitchen to start breakfast. I turned on the coffee machine and while that was brewing and started on the breakfast and lunch package for my little girl. Today is our first days and I want everything to go smoothly. I start at my new place of work today, and Davina at her new school. We might have started on a rocky st

The voice on the other end was puzzled. I cringed when I realised that I have made a blunder. "Hello, Bobby," I said into the phone flushed bright red from my mistake. "Who sent you flowers?" Bobby asked in a teasing tone. "No one," I rushed out like a teenager the blush on my face deepening. "Mmm hmm," he sounded like he didn't believe me, but didn't ask any more questions, and that is my best friend for you. Always patient enough for when you are ready to speak. "Called to wish you a good first day. Are you already in the office?" I nodded, then realised he couldn't see me. "Yes." "How is it?" Another big smile appeared on my face. Just like he did with the house, Reign didn't spare expenses with the office. "Beautiful" "Mmm, maybe Jonathan and I could drop by sometime for a tour" I could feel

  • LOVE BY CONTRACT    Chapter twenty six: Make up sex

    DAMIEN POVFor the past few weeks I have been picking up on some weird attitude from Lily. She gets angry easily with me, doesn't want to talk and the only thing she seems to want from me is sex, all the time. We never talk anymore. "The morning incident few days ago," I kept my eyes on her. She has yet to look in my direction, which is another thing I have picked up on. Lily avoids looking at me directly as if scared of what I might see in her eyes, like she is hiding something from me. "There is no need, I have already forgotten about it." Her causally muttered words shocked me, and made my eye brows raise in disbelief. This is the first time I have ever heard her use these words. "Oh," I mumbled clearly lacking words to say. "You are right." "Am I," her sudden change of character is keeping me off balance, and making me lack any reasonable come back. My not so intelligent response sounded funny to her that her lips stretched into a soft smile making her pretty face shine and

    DAMIEN POVI lifted my lips off her nipples and stared transfixed for a few seconds at them. They looked so ripe and wet that I was tempted to continue feasting at them, but my cock protested needing a relieve of its own. I quickly did away with the rest of her clothes and mine and then picked her up to deposit her on the bed gently. I raised her legs, spreading them wide to grant me a glimpse of her pussy. I inhaled sharply at their wetness and readied my cock to thrust in. I was so swollen that I was already dripping. "Wait!" What? My lust clouded mind couldn't process her words clearly. Does she want me to stop? Clearly I had her wrong. I looked up at her, my eyes questioning. "Condom." My gaze sharpened on her. She is not serious, right? But the look in her eyes says otherwise. "I thought you are on pills," I wasn't happy with her request and you can hear it in my voice. "I am, but you know they are not 100% safe, this is my ovulation period, we can't take any chances. I c

    KAMARIA POV "Your mother is right, Davina. We love each other very much, but nothing romantic. You could say we are soul mates," Bobby smiled at me, and I smiled back agreeing with his words. "Shouldn't your soulmate be someone you are in love with?" Davina frowned at Bobby. "Not necessarily. Come on guys let me introduce you to my wife and kids. Jonathan and his girlfriend are here too," he added as we trailed through the short corridor leading into the living room. "So I am meeting your significant others at the same time, cool," I said sarcastically making Bobby chuckle. "Don't worry, I am sure they both will love you." I nodded hoping that his words are through. "There she is!" Jonathan made a bee line for me as soon as we walked into the room. "Hi, Ria," he smiled before pulling me into a hug. "Hi, Jon," I smiled as I hugged him back. I could feel someone's eyes on us and quickly patted him to let go. "Hello, Davina," Jonathan greeted my daughter excitedly, raising his h

    DAMIEN POVA lot have happened these past few months. Where do I even begin. Lily’s trialIt wasn’t a long process because all evidence were against her. The guy she hired to do her dirty deed confessed to everything and Lily didn’t bother to deny it.In a moment of insanity I visited her because I wanted to know why she did it. I still found it hard to believe that she was capable of murder. This was a woman that I loved in the past. Had she been this devious from the onset? If she was she hid it very well. Back to my visit to her in jail before she was transferred to the prison. This was after the judgement from the judge found her guilty. The guard on that day was kind enough to provide us a small room to talk in with no one disturbing us. Lily waddled her way in, and paused briefly at the sight of me. Her pregnancy was beginning to show now. “Didn’t think I will ever see you again,” she said taking the seat across from me. She looked tired. I wanted to feel pity for her situa

    KAMARIA’S POV“You may kiss the bride,” the priest officiating our wedding ceremony said with so much gusto, as if to infuse some excitement into the tensed and rigid atmosphere in the small room. I felt Reign stare intently at me, his expression nervous and questioning. He wanted to know if I wanted him to kiss me.I smiled to say yes. His green eyes immediately brightened with joy and relief, but as he leaned in to kiss me a sound echoed in the church drawing everyone’s attention.We all looked towards the door, and there he stood. The man I love. I should have known Damien couldn’t resist not coming. I felt Reign stiffen beside me and reached out to touch him. “I am not going to change my mind,” I said softly. “In fact is too late,” I smiled up at him. His green eyes searched mine for any signs of regrets. He is not going to find any. I might not be in love with him but that doesn’t mean I regret marrying him. “I love you,” he mumbled and closed the gap between our two lips.

  • LOVE BY CONTRACT    Chapter 119: I lost her

    DAMIEN’S POV “Mmm!” I moaned at the softness of her lips, pressing my body hoarder against her softness as my lips ravaged her. A raging hunger like one I have never known before beseeched my body and my quickly hardening cock begged to sink into her warm welcoming softness. My hands moved up to palm her soft gloves the hardened pick tinging the centre of my palms as I gave it a hard squeeze, eliciting a soft erotic sound from the woman writhing against me with abandon. The soft pitch sound shot straight to my cock causing it to throb harder. My hips shot forward, thrusting against her centre in a bid for some relieve. I kissed her harder, losing all train of reasoning, with only one thought in my mind fucking the woman before me against the wall. I felt her slender hands on my chest pushing, but the motion took more than a second to register through my lust fogged up drain. It only occurred to me that Kamaria and I are no longer on the same page when she roughly snatched her lip

    KAMARIA POV Is been three days since we arrived in London for my wedding. Daddy couldn’t come because of his old bones as he said it, but I think it is his excuse not to admit that he is scared of flying. He was happy for me though and gave me his blessings. Here we are in one of London’s pub on the eve of my wedding having a night out. It is just me and my two best friends. I have done my best to present a brave front to them, to mask my real feelings. I am not regretting saying yes to Reign, he is a good man and will certainly make a great husband, and father. But my heart yearns for another, and for that I can’t help the sadness that creeps into my soul now and then. “To Kamaria, and finally getting the happiness she deserves!” Bobby yelled with a wide grin on his face. He is another great supporter of this marriage. Jonathan is on the fence. I believe he will prefer that I be with Damien, even though he hasn’t said that loud. Unfortunately I can’t. He chose her again. I stifl

    DAMIEN POV “Hey man! What is with the shit look on your face?”Max asked as he took the seat on the other side of the table. I called him out for lunch because…well I needed the company. These days it feels as if I am loosing control of everything in my life. “It is over between Kamaria and I and she is getting married?” I answered with a low sarcastic chuckle, but inside I was in pain. “What!” Max gasped staring wide at me. “Yeah, man, I lifted my coffee cup to my lips and took a sip. The hot liquid did nothing for the sadness I was feeling inside. Maybe I should have ordered something stronger. “What happened?” I hesitated to answer when the young waiter appeared beside our table to take his lunch order. Alone again, I spoke. “I think she is in love with her boss.”“You don’t believe that,” Max said causally. I didn’t say anything cause I don’t know what to believe anymore. Why is she marrying him? Is it just to get back at me for not divorcing Lily. I thought she of all peop

  • LOVE BY CONTRACT    Chapter 116: A painful decision

    KAMARIA POV Earlier today when Reign came around he had asked me to marry him. His proposal though a shock wasn’t out of the blue proposal for him. He gave his reasons at the same time pointed out that there was no future with Damien, not with Lily around. I didn’t want to believe him and wasn’t keen on accepting his proposal no matter how much his reasons made sense so I sent him away with the words that I would think about it. After Reign left I wanted to call Damien, needed to hear him say it. When Damien landed in front of my door without me having to call him, I was filled with so much joy and also dread. Joy at the sight of the man I love, and dread that it might not be enough. Looks like I was right to fear. What hurts most is that he is choosing her all over again. Yes, he makes it all about his kid, and I could understand a little from his point of view. After losing Davina, Lily is another chance for him to have a kid. I know what he felt in the past about kids, but that

  • LOVE BY CONTRACT    Chapter 115: It is over

    DAMIEN POVThings have gotten downright hostile between Lily and I. My home now feels like a war zone with no day passing without us getting into an argument. There is nothing I do that she doesn’t find fault in. Despite the sacrifice I was making for her by staying away from Kamaria out of respect for her and because she was carrying my child there was no pleasing her. I miss Kamaria so bad that my chest hurts. I have been to see her a few times since she was discharged but those times someone is always there with her that we haven’t had time to speak alone. I couldn’t help but worry about what she is thinking. Does she still love me, or does she believe that I will abandon her now that Lily is back. Lily being back makes no difference to how I feel about Kamaria and I think is high time I made her understand that. Jonathan was gracious enough to keep me informed with what is going on with her and that is how I learned that she has moved from her previous apartment to a new one an

  • LOVE BY CONTRACT    Chapter 114: Dealing with a lot

    KAMARIA POV I had believed him long gone. The last time we spoke things hadn’t exactly ended well. It wasn’t just his presence that had me short of words but his appearance too. I couldn’t believe the man I was looking at is my boss. Where did the rest of him go?“Hi,” he said a little awkwardly from the door way. “Hi,” I replied softly. What I wanted most was to say sorry for hurting him as that hadn’t been my intention and the other thing is to find out what is really going on. This time the truth. He closed the distance between us and sat down on the chair my dad vacated. “How are you feeling?” He enquired staring at my face intently as if to spot a lie when I tell it. I didn’t. “Tired, and sad,” I said softly. He nodded in understanding and then looked away as if he couldn’t bear to look at me. And then he shocked me when tears ran down his face. “What is wrong Reign?” I asked a little bit alarmed. “Are you okay?”He shook his head like the words felt heavy in his mouth and t
