Chapter 53: Even if it hurts

*Melissa's POV*

~Flashback to two nights ago ~

The Uber had dropped me at Williams' estate. I stepped down, paid for the ride and the man gave me a momentarily gaze before he zoomed off again, leaving me standing there alone.

Though it was already very late at night, I wasn't afraid, I was aware there were securities around the vicinity, making it safe.

My gaze darted around and I wrapped my arms around myself, rubbing my skin slightly to help ease the cold.

"What am I even doing here?" I thought aloud, suddenly feeling like it wasn't the right place to be at the moment.

I felt like I was walking into a potential disaster, but I couldn't stop myself. My legs were moving on their own, and soon, I was standing an inch away from the giant gate. The only thing separating me from Williams' compound.

My hands trembled slightly as I stretched it forward to ring the intercom, but paused midway.

"What if I see him with her? Can I handle that?" I questioned

He attempted to kiss me inside an elevator.Since then, I've tried my best avoiding any circumstances that would have both of us together in an enclosed space, alone."Sir, Roselia..."He interrupted me."I need you to make a delivery," he said without breaking his focus away from his laptop."Oh...um... okay sir," I replied, wondering why he wanted me to do that when the company had its delivery men."Take that," he ordered, pointing his finger towards a direction.I dragged my legs towards the direction he was pointing and I saw the thing he wanted me to deliver.A collection of suits. About five of them, different colors. They looked like the ones we s

    Chapter 55: Wedding of the year ~ flashback cont'd ~ *Melissa's POV* 9:00 AM, Wedding Day. I gazed out the helicopter window, my heart racing with anticipation. The private villa below was buzzing with activity, guests arriving in their numbers for the wedding of the year. I scoffed, wondering why they chose such hidden location for it when this number of people were still invited. My team, Williams men and I were perched in a secluded spot, to avoid detection. Gregg, our mole, had come through with crucial Intel last night — the wedding would start at 10:00 sharp. We had an hour to observe, blend in, and get into position. Max, our inside man, was already in the hall, posing as a guest. The wedding was strictly by invitation and we had managed to get him one. His role was to object to the union, causing a scene and drawing attention away from the real mission. I took a deep breath, my mind racing with different thoughts of what could go wrong. Some of our other securities,

It appeared she didn't want to let go, even for a moment and I felt the same way too, so I just held her tightly to myself.Finally seeing her again after about a week made me feel things I couldn't quite explain with words. I had missed her so much that I was beginning to lose my mind.Now, thinking of the fact that I was about to marry that whore, just so I could be allowed to go back to my wife, only to be saved by her."My bunny," I whispered, resting my head on her hair, inhaling the scent and kissing it."I missed you," she finally spoke. "So bad.""I'm here now, baby."With my hand, I gently lifted her chin to look at me. The sadness I saw in her eyes made my heart throb and I swore to make my grandpa, Alice and anyone else who was behind my kidnap pay.She looked somehow thinner and her eyes appeared to had been lacking sleep, obvious from the eye bags.

"I'll always be here to protect you, no matter what it takes."I knew that was a huge promise, but I was going to try. I was going to make up for all the times I've hurt her.She nodded, her eyes traveling to my lips again and I decided to make the first move this time.We kissed for a little more time before my lips trailed to her neck, suckling on it, then to the valley between her moulds."Hmm..." She moaned softly into my ears. My member was now rock hard, and I felt like just raising the small gown she was wearing and fucking her all six ways to Sunday. But no, I was going to keep my need aside for now and be gentle with her in every way."Don't leave me again," she spoke in between moans, her emotions evident in her voice."Never, baby. Never!" I responded, my tongue giving her breast a sleek lick and

Truly, there was a meeting, but Mark had been standing in my place since I was gone. He was going to continue until I settled the heat around me. I arrived at the family mansion, demanding to see the old man that was bent on making my life go exactly how he wanted it. But, a guard told me he was out. The guard didn't want to disclose his exact location at first, but after a few threats, I found out he was in his penthouse. "Why was that hard for you to say?" I asked, glaring at him and he cowered. I could tell he was scared, perhaps because I had tried to choke him before he gave me the answer I needed. Not wasting any more moment there, I made for my car and sped off. It was a relief that Grandma wasn't around in this period — she had travelled again to see Aunty Beatrice, her eldest daughter.

But after a second thought, I figured the lively environment was a perfect choice to provide me the distraction I badly sort.I reached the entrance and showed my card to the men in black, and they step aside for me to enter.
