I grabbed her arm in an iron grip. And she sucked her breath when I tug her and swirled her into my chest and held her progressively like she was going to fade.She stood rooted to the ground, frozen because of my sudden movement. I was holding her wait possessiveky and our body was pressed against each other with her hands on my chest.I leaned to her just let myself drowned into her intoxicating and pleasant scent. I could hear her harsh breathing. I kissed her head so passionately, that I forget everything around us. That only matter is us. She snuggled into my arms even more. Taking in the overwhelming comfort it gave me, it felt like my heart is about to explode. I felt so secured. It felt home. She is my home.I pressed my lips so passionately against the top of her head. "You are my home, Sunshine." I murmured softly. I blink my eyes and pulled her a little, her heart pounding loudly in my ears, overwhelming joy flowing through out me. I made a stepped back to looked into he
Claire's pov Yesterday night was different. It was not like our usual passionate love making, it was kind of rough. Like Brandon wanted to tell me or himself that whom I belong too. He doesn't have to say it or show it. Without his any demand I have surrendered myself to him in his love. Because he took me back to life, so he has all the rights in my life.Yesterday when he asked me about my past life, it had two aspects. One I don't want to remember and another I miss many times. I miss going out by myself, I miss seeing the bright sky, shining sun, people, gloomy flowers, going to the mall, meeting new people and my friends. Thinking about my friends….I am still thinking about Grace, ...how is she? What must she be doing? Maybe she has kids by now?Is she also blaming me for what happened with her family?Truth be told, I sincerely think that there’s no getting over losing a best friend, especially a best friend whom you’ve loved so much, was there with you through the best and
I dialed Brandon's number again but he was not taking my calls. I don't know why I'm not feeling good. I kind of feeling nervous, a kind a fear in my heart. Or it just happens everytime I saw the same dream or the same nightmare. One can never get his past behind him because the memory of the past is always in someone's mind.Soldiers who have fought in various wars many years ago occasionally dream that they are still fighting in the wars because the memory is still in their mind.People who have gone through bad childhoods and bad marriages still have the memories of them and would like to erase those bad and painful memories but unfortunately they cant.As long as you have those bad memories of the past that bad past will always be with you because it is still deep inside you.I think all of us wish we could get rid of these painful memories but unfortunately they are there to stay.We may try our best not to focus on them but they are still there and often come up in our sub - consci
Author's pov Shina saw her wardrobe, her dresses and the expensive jewellery collection she has. She is the owner of the huge mansion and Brandon, a multi-billionaire, whom everyone feared and obeyed wants her, only Claire.Any girl would get jealous seeing her life and luxury, and Shina felt the same. Because she has tried many times to get Brandon's attention, but she always fails. Before coming to Claire, she used to feel she had some chance but after their marriage, Brandon has stopped looking at any other woman. She looked at Claire who was not saying anything but she realized Claire must have felt bad about her comment."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel bad." She said to her, faking her apology. Claire didn't reply to her. She took her dress from her to change."It's very normal because of his fan following between the girls, it used to be the hot topic that who would be the girl in his life when he will get married…." She kept on blabbering to her. "Hmm.." Claire sa
Brandon was looking out of the glass window of his cabin toward the busy city, lighting and everything. He was trying to keep himself away from her, to control his emotions. He knows he has anger issues, and he will explode in front of her then it will create another problem for them and he doesn't want to hurt her. Still, even if she has hidden about her past from him. He wanted to confront her directly but what if everything turned out to be some dirty game by Jason or any other person who wanted to create some misunderstanding between them. That's why Brandon is taking every step very carefully. Even when She called him in the morning, he didn't pick up on the first call. But seeing her continue calls, he couldn't stop himself anymore so he picked it up and when he finally heard her sweet and melodious voice, he closed his eyes in satisfaction. His expressions changed instantly from stressed to reflexes. She is his medicine after all. She sounded distressed, why?She was callin
So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday." ― Nicholas Sparks ….He settled myself back on the armchair before he dropped on the floor. His whole body was trembling with random emotions. It's consuming him. He felt like inside he was dying."Why Sunshine? Why did you kiss him back and gave me so much pain? Why did you give me that much love and in the end only to hurt me the most In a harsh way? You took half of me. More than losing anything." He mumbles while drinking his next glass of alcohol. He wanted to drown himself in the alcohol tonight, maybe that's so he could forget the pain he was feeling right now. He wanted to forget what just happened. Free gave him the call records he asked for, mostly her calls were very limited only to her family and him but a strange number took his attention, when he found that it was re
"Shine your soul with the same egoless humility as the rainbow, and no matter where you go in this world or the next, love will find you, attend you, and bless you." ― Aberjhani 2Claire's povHe didn't have to tell me to kiss him back. When he touched me, I knew I wanted to taste his lips again. I always fantasize about him at night. The drunkenness I felt suddenly became more potent not because of the alcohol but because of his kisses. His touch made me intoxicated. He sat on the couch making me sit on his lap, I held him for support. I have not forgotten what he said to me earlier, but the way he kisses me, he touches me, his every touch made me forget everything around us. I was sitting on his lap facing him with my legs either side of his body. He was kissing me voraciously and I'm responding with the same intensity. I felt his hand on the back of my head, then grabbed a handful of my hair tugging it gently as his kisses trailed down on the hollow on my neck making me moan wit
Words can hurt people in several ways. One is, that it can seriously affect their self-esteem. That person may feel that he/she is useless. He/she may think that every bad thing that happened was because of him/her. Words can cut to the very core of a person, poison societies and cripple Nations. Words have such influence and power over us. They govern our world, control our behaviour and dictate our emotions. We don't even recognize the impact words have until the damage is done. Brandon's words hurt her more than his actions caused her pain, she never imagined that he never said this to her. He has always been so gentle with her, that's why she couldn't understand his behaviour tonight. She couldn't understand what happened to him suddenly. He was kissing her, loving her a few moments back. Now he is getting angry with her, is it because he is under the influence of alcohol? "Ahhh….you are hurting me." She whispered in pain when he held her hand tightly. "What about the pain yo
As we approached the house, I noticed that the fences around it had a lot of climbers with different colors of flowers hanging on every fence. The gate was changed to a big arch iron gate with a lot of alba together with rosa paul's Himalayan musk scramblers hanging on it. The combination of the white and pink colors of their flowers mixed with their heavenly scent were making the whole entrance look homey and welcoming. I thought I could see Brandon there as soon as we finally entered the house but he was nowhere to be found. Cross' mother welcomed me with a warm smile like the first time I came here.."Mr. Rodriguez instructed me to let you rest first" She informed me. We're currently in the room where Brandon and I occupied before. I wanted to protest and ask her more questions but she already left after telling me to rest before we eat lunch.I was about to sit on the bed when I noticed a note at the center of it. I gingerly took it and I felt so relieved when I read what's writt
Claire's pov "I want you...now" He whispered in my ear and teasingly bit it which sent an electric-like wave coarse through my whole body. He kissed me again like he couldn't get enough of me. Yes, we got back together again but we haven't been intimate because of his condition."B-But you're not totally healed yet" I answered when he finally let go of my lips.He smirked and to my surprise, he swiftly pulled me onto his lap. My breath went ragged when I felt his raging manhood poking through his mesh shorts. His hands landed on my butt and guided me to grind my center against his raging hard-on. I instantly felt the wetness between my legs as I complied and voluntarily moved my hips to continue grinding on him. He was so hard and it felt like he was about to burst any moment now. It's been so long since we last made love and I would be just a hypocrite if I wouldn't admit how much I wanted him right now. Just feeling his warmth like this is making me surrender to his touch.But th
Claire's pov A splash of ice cold water was thrown on me making my eyes fly open, a loud unpleasant gasp slipped from my lips. My head felt heavy, my muscles tense and sore. I blinked several times trying to open my eyes from the water that was irritating my eyes.I heard a dry and cruel chuckle when my ear suddenly worked and there was not an echo of a wired sound in my head. I peered my eyes open only to be met by darkness, a lamp hanging above me as it gave a small view of the room. A shiver ran through my body as my eyes gazed around the room.Suddenly the damp light became stronger and stronger until it revealed more of the room I was imprisoned in. I looked in horror at the stone cold four walls. There was no sign of one small window. The room was cold. Extremely cold, it made the shiver on my skin appear. My nose cringed at the horrible musty smell, it made me want to vomit."And our beautiful Claire is finally awake." A deep voice was heard from behind the shadows.My eyes ca
Claire's pov I grew up thinking that life should be lived in a certain way. I was taught like that. Love was defined for me. So were friendships. I was told that you should love only after settling down. And then how you should get married to the love of your life and live happily ever after. But I have lived long enough to realize that all that is bullshit. That’s not life. That’s just a user manual created by society. They define what’s right. They define what’s wrong. It’s all just about them and their forced guidelines on you. Honestly, I am sick of living as per their standards. I want to break free. And I have. I don’t decide right or wrong by their moral compass. I think for myself, and I do it. And I do it only when I feel like it, only when it makes me happy. I have just one reason to do anything in my life, happiness. If it makes me happy, I will do it no matter what. And if it does not make me happy, then do whatever the hell you want, but I won’t do it.Let’s talk about l
It's been almost a month since that horrific day and I still couldn't believe what happened. I never thought I would feel such kind of fear in my life. That time while they were reviving Brandon, I thought I was going to lose my sanity and didn't know what to do. Just thinking about losing him made me want to take my own life too.If it wasn't because of the support of Mrs Davis and my mother, I would've really lost it."Hey, what are you thinking?" I was pulled out of my reverie when I heard that voice. I looked at him and I still couldn't believe that we're together again. Thankfully, he survived and now, we're here at the penthouse again; happily living together. I looked at him. He's still using a crutch but at least, he's almost healed completely. The bandage on his head has been removed too. He still has some visible scratches and all but at least he's out of the hospital now.His left foot was the only part of him that needed extra care because it was still not healed yet.He
Tears kept on falling from her eyes while sitting there silently. Oh god! Please save Brandon. I wouldn't be able to survive life without him…She kept on praying hard. Her hands were entwined together tightly. Her body trembling because of fear and worry for Brandon. "Don't worry, Claire. He is going to be fine.*?" She heard Mrs Davis say this to her. She bit her lower lip when a whimper escaped her lips."This..is my fault." "What are you saying??" "You don't understand …" she cried on her chest for she didn't know how long before she finally pulled herself together. "Are you sure you are okay?" Mrs Davis asked her as she stared at her belly."Don't get too emotional, Claire. Think about your baby. You know this is not good for you. You need to be strong." Her hands atomically went to her belly and caressed it."I'm sorry baby, That Mommy's like this." She cried. But then she quickly wiped the tears off.Branson was still inside. They didn't know how long they had been waiting f
Claire heard Fred's words and she ran towards her room while Fred was calling her from behind. She realized she had to be careful with her baby also, so she slowed down and walked to the room and saw the most dreadful scene in front of her eyes. Brandon was lying on the bed, his shirt was covered with blood, and so were his hands, some blood was still oozing out of his leg and a man was trying to tie a bandage, he had his eyes closed. Everyone was so scared right now, they have never seen their boss in this condition. With trembling condition, she entered the room but couldn't say anything. She was just standing there quietly looking at him, constantly. Soon Fred entered followed by a doctor, Mrs. Davis also came with Shira and she gasped to tears seeing his deathly condition. The doctor examined him, and he has been shot in 2 places, one is on the chest and the other on the leg. It was a regular thing to witness blood, guns and these fights for them, but Brandon always got out saf
Claire's heart stopped and she felt her life being shattered, but Antonio pulled her back before she could touch the ground. She felt a harsh pull and she sat on the couch, breathing heavily. Her eyes brimmed with tears, and she was looking pale. Her hand instantly went to her belly, feeling her baby to know that her baby is fine. Before she could recover from this shock, Antonio pulled out his gun and put it on her belly, grabbing her arm hard."What are you…" She winced in pain, he pulled her harshly. She was feeling so humiliated and disrespected. Brandon and his whole man group has always treated me with so much respect, this is so different and not acceptable for her."Did you like the teaser…of what I could do??"He asked her."If you said a single word….A fucking single word then I'm going to chop your brother in pieces and your this child too…."He hissed in anger to her. "I'm Brandon's wife, be in your limits…If he gets to know about it.." She was talking and they started to
"Claire agreed" As soon as words slipped from Grace's mouth, Antonio punched hard on the table and laughed evilly seeing his plan succeed. Now Brandon's most trusted person will betray him, and break his trust. That's going to be fun! "I can't wait to see her crying as I did, as my family did…" Grace said feeling anger and hatred in her heart for Claire. She was always a good friend to her, but because of Claire, her family was destroyed. Brandon kills her father and brother, and she is happily living her life with that criminal.No, with their plan Brandon and Claire both ruin each other, and that will be the perfect revenge for them.Grace knew that Antonio is an enemy of Brandon, by Jason. So she herself contacted Antonio to help her to take her revenge. She can't sit calmly knowing the murderer of her father and brother is living his life full of fun and enjoyment. So then made the whole plan to manipulate her against Brandon. They lied to her about the kidnapping of her family
