Sitting beside the sassy looking one, is another member of the family, giving her a deceitful look.Angela recognized her as the one who came and introduced herself as Riley Antonio's sister, then threatened her to leave the Montero's mansion days ago."You're finally here, please have a seat,you two".Grandma Elizabeth cuts into her thoughts and gestured at the empty seats preserved for them.Angela sat at the dinner table, surrounded by Antonio's family. Her heart was racing more than ever.Courtney and Antonio's sisters were seated on the opposite side of the table.Angela could feel those two sisters were devouring her with their eyes,as they got them fixed on her every damn move she made.Damon and his other brother Alex were seated opposite her too but they don't seem too concerned about her presence.While mama Elizabeth, Antonio's grandmother, was seated at the head of the table, a benevolent smile on her face.Antonio sat at the other end of the table, his eyes constantly da
“I…I…I..what! Did cat cut your tongue?”Riley mimicked.“Excuse me?"Angela said slowly calculating an answer to give,but none seemed to be in her head at the moment."It's a shame that a responsible looking young lady like you could stand so low to take part in this, I know my brother very well. We are not old like grandma, everyone knows you are only after a price, tell me have you ever lost someone dear to you,if yes then you will know how important a bride of Antonio is to our Grandma, a real bride who he loves, you are so heartless to deceive a poor old woman, now tell me how much were you paid?"Judy asked, triggered.She was desperate for the truth and already losing it.Angela's lips trembled, her feet frozen to a spot, she was about getting roasted alive by all the two of them. The accusation was direct nothing like she expected.Her eyes shifted to Courtney,she was silent for a while now, listening also Antonio has been silent and refused to bail her out of this situation.
“Tomorrow we will be meeting with the diviner” Grandma announced drawing everyone's attention to her.Including Alex who had been completely out of place since the whole thing stirred up.“A diviner?”Angela gasped in confusion and stole a glance at Antonio curiously.The name doesn’t sound like a big deal to hear but his expression proved her wrong, so she wondered about the need for a diviner.“Why do we need a Diviner Grandma?”Antonio tried to control the panic rage in his voice.A Diviner can tell if their relationship is real or not, it is very bad news for Antonio and he needs to act fast and smart.“It’s the family's tradition”.His Grandma smiled.“But the past generations of Monteros did not make use of a diviner,”Judy protested.“Well, they did, in every third generation apart, so it’s Antonio’s generation to involve the Diviner and also since you all have your doubts about beautiful Angela, I will have no choice to invite her, if she is his soul mate, I won’t worry about th
Angela could tell that he is really at his limits. He is a sex addict. If he didn’t get a way to get a whore, he might turn her into one. A man like him, ruthless and experienced, and strong Angela won’t stand a chance to stop him.“Now..?”Her lips trembled.Antonio stood up and gave her a paper bag.“Put those on,” He commanded. Angela quietly observed the two pieces of see through net fabric, a strapless top with a bum short. She looked up at Antonio, who was watching her expectantly. "What is this?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly.“Do you need glasses?”"I'm not wearing it. It's far too revealing.”Angela said slowly.“Well you will, right now in front of me,I told you so”.Antonio's face darkened, his eyes narrowing.Angela stood there helplessly,unable to make up any more excuses.She pulled the towel off her body,trying not to tear up. She started dressing up in front of him.She could feel his intense gaze on her,it made her nervous and embarrassed. She was expo
She regretted asking that question immediately. Grandma went pale as though she had lost all the blood in her body, worst she had a shock and won't move, Angela panicked. "Grandma?...are you okay..?" She shook Grandma but she didn't even blink. The door opened and Antonio stood there, his eyes went from Angela's face filled with sweat beads and tears to Grandma white as a corpse.He came back earlier than expected.That look on his face, Angela knew she is done for, tears rolled freely down her cheeks.“I didn’t mean to…”Antonio rushed to Grandma Elizabeth and shoved her aside, ignoring her.“Grandma,” he yelled and shook her hard.No response.“Grandma!”His voice growled this time.“I …am fine…”Grandma gasped and blinked severally.Antonio sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair in relief.Grandma turned to Angela, who was only soaked in tears.“Sorry for scaring you my dear, it wasn’t intentional, what was that you asked me again?”“I think you need to rest Grandma,
Antonio stood by the tub, looking tall, breathtaking and intimidating, his hands sunk into the pockets of his suits, a locker necklace hanging on the open collar of his white shirt, giving a clear view of his hard chest.To make matters worse to Angela, she was stark naked, she so much wished she could disappear that moment.She swallowed heavily as heat flooding through her was coming from more than just the hot bath, she knew for sure that she was in big trouble here. Those deep green eyes wandered to her bosom, dark and lustful.Angela noticed, she quickly sank into the water, splashing more water over the rim, until her chin touched the bubbles.She kept one arm tight across her full breasts, which unfortunately covered only the nipple centre because of her massive size, exposing pale flesh beneath and the other to shield her private region.“How is grandma?” she managed to ask.“Sound, you need not to worry,”he replied.A minute of awkward silence, she took a deep breath of cour
Antonio had tried every possible way to discourage his grandma from proceeding with the family tradition but was not successful of getting a diviner but no avail.“Grandma there’s nothing like seeing the future, they’re all swindlers, faking predictions”. “Don’t be silly," Grandma Elizabeth gently chided. “I don’t believe in these things, there's no way that woman that always wears a turban and horrible rings on her fingers can predict the future”. Antonio persisted. “Not just predict but she will also give her advice as a life coach”. Antonio rolled his eyes annoyingly. He was sure convincing her wouldn’t be possible and also the Diviner is even more difficult than her. Yesterday after the family introduction he reached out to the Diviner to bribe her concerning today’s meeting but she bluntly turned him down no matter the amount involved saying it will affect her spirituality.“I could have offered her a night stand instead, no woman would reject that” he said to himself
“What is wrong dear?” Grandma cuts in.“Your grandson here doesn’t believe in love and offered me a price to fake their compatibility because he was afraid, you will be disappointed, in all my years no one has disrespected my gift, I don’t make fake predictions”. Antonio cursed her in his heart with so much hatred that if not for Grandma he would definitely put her in her place by feeding her meat to the wild beasts.“Antonio, why do such a thing!” Grandma scolded with a frown and shook her head in disappointment. “But on a brighter side, they are compatible,” Madame Fefe announced. “Thank heavens” Grandma proclaimed in relief.“What!” Angela and Antonio snapped, ignoring Grandma’s present. Madame Fefe looked up and met Antonio’s raging eyes “She is your saving grace and completes you, tames you in a way beyond ordinary”.Antonio scuffed in disbelief, he was worried about getting bursted by this woman is as fake as his emotions. What a win!She turned to Angela, who quickly
She turned to Antonio, who was still smiling softly, watching her with Junior in his arms. "Did you... did you know?" she asked, her voice still shaky.Antonio stepped forward, gently taking her hand."Found out only weeks ago. It was Leonardo," he explained, nodding toward his best man. "He planned the fake death. Took care of him. Kept Jace safe and hidden, when he was under Damon's control. We all thought it was best to surprise you today. All Leonardo."Angela's wet eyes gazed towards Leonardo.She ran and hugged him."Thank you," she cried. "Thank you for saving him. You don't know what you did for us....thank you. How will I ever pay you back!"Leonardo was unsure if it's okay to hug her back, but the look in Antonio's eyes warned him. Antonio gently pulled her away from Leonard's to his chest."You can cry on my chest instead".He whispered, then turned to his best man."Thank you, Leonardo".Leonardo, still flushed from Courtney's earlier kiss, simply nodded. "It was the l
The guests, still applauding and cheering for them.Antonio's Mexican parents, the fisherman, and his wife, were clapping and cheering proudly while his wife dabbed at her eyes, overwhelmed with joy.Even Hinata, who had been watching quietly, joined the applause, her smile bittersweet but genuinely happy for the lovebirds.Grateful to Angela for her life.******The joyous wedding celebration reached its peak as Angela prepared to toss her bouquet. Laughter and chatter filled the air, the guests eager to see who would catch the symbol of future love. Angela turned her back to the crowd, lifted the bouquet high, and with a quick glance over her shoulder, threw it into the air.The bouquet arced beautifully, and with a soft thud, it landed right in Courtney's hands without her trying.Gasps and cheers erupted from the onlookers. Courtney, with a mischievous smile, turned and walked toward Antonio's best man, Leonardo, who had been watching the scene. Not actually the scene but Court
She nodded and smiled back at them before heading out of the room.As she waited to be walked down the aisle, a guard approached wearing dark sunglasses. He looked very young too."A guard?"Angela asked Doris."He's Antonio's most trusted person to walk you down the aisle. Let him take you". Doris whispered reassuringly.*How come I haven't seen him before, maybe the shades*Angela thought.Reluctantly, and with a deep breath, she finally agreed, allowing the guard to step in and take her father's place.As Angela made her way outside, the female guests were already waiting with anticipation to see the wedding gown. When she finally appeared, gasps filled the air. Eyes widened, and phones came out immediately."She's stunning!" One woman whispered, as several others frantically snapped pictures of her gown, each trying to capture every detail of the intricate design.Many women exchanged envious glances, their smiles genuine but tinged with the smallest hint of jealousy."I need t

The royal Montero's guards were chosen
"I love you, Antonio...and I am lucky...to have met you accidentally. It was a disappointment at first, but it's a blessing. You are not a Monster, you are ANTONIO MONTERO incredibly handsome playful caring and sweet in bed...my man".Antonio scoffed and looked away from her."He blushes a lot too".She smiled back at him.Antonio's face turned more red."Stop, Angel, I get it".He looked away then slowly back to her.Angela tilted her head, her heart full of compassion. "You deserve to heal," she replied, her voice firm yet tender. "We both do. And we can't do that if you keep punishing yourself for the past."Antonio exhaled deeply, still maintaining her eye contact.Her forgiveness was more than he felt he deserved, but it was also the lifeline he didn't know he needed. Slowly, he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a tight embrace.Angela hugged him back, resting her head against his chest, listening to the rapid beat of his heart."I love you, Angela...more than you can
"You know Angela, you have a nice voice, the problem is we, the singles, don't want to hear it sweetie!"Courtney's voice came from outside the door."I should have lodged in a suite or something. I just thought maybe Antonio is a changed man now, proved me wrong! Silly fox!"She stormed away.Antonio and Angela looked at each other shocked at what just happened, then they laughed at themselves quietly."I love you".Angela kissed him."I love you more".Antonio replied and held her tightly."About Hinata....can we visit her tomorrow?"Angela spoke against his skin, sandwiched by his chest and arms."Of course....we will talk to my Mexican family too, they are worried about her and dying to meet you".Angela smiled back.****Antonio stirred awake in the middle of the night, his mind spinning some memories he hadn't been able to access for years.The dream he had just awoken from was vivid, like pieces of a puzzle falling into place. He lay still for a moment, his body tense, and his h
He was ashamed to let it go so soon, but it was impossible to hold back.Angela melted down on the bed, then she heard loud hisses and groans. Too weak and drained, she closed her eyes and smiled, knowing what happened.A few seconds, she opened her eyes and found Antonio's face flushed with embarrassment."I ...don't know what happened. I am sorry for this"."It's celibacy, nothing to be ashamed of, honey. Look at that big pool of cream. Five years, did ever you jerk off?" she giggled."I had a lot to worry about".He laughed a bit of relief."My body is so tired, it's your fault, let me clean you up. Come over here, don't be shy".She sounded drunk and put her hair up. No one says an orgasm can make one talk drunkenly.Antonio walked to the bed and offered himself to her."Hey you big boy, we meet again"She bit her lower lip and giggled at his long shaft."You are talking to it?"Antonio asked amused."It's mine, you have any problem with that?"She pouted angrily.Antonio raised
Antonio kissed her again, this time more fiercely, more urgently, as if he couldn't get enough of her. His hands moved to her waist, then lower to the soft curve of her butt. Angela gasped as he gave her a squeeze and grabbed her tightly down there, pulling her even tighter against him, their bodies pressed so close that she could feel his hard shaft poking and getting all excited for her.Noticing that, caused her inside to melt, and her juices started dripping."I can't wait anymore, Angel".Antonio breathed hotly against her ear, then he returned to claim her lips again..With a swift motion, Antonio lifted her, carrying her to the bed, never breaking the kiss. He laid her gently on the bed, his body hovering over hers. "Angel".He whispered her name huskily.Angela's bosom rose and fell with anticipation, her eyes locked on his, waiting impatiently, her lips slightly opened.Kneeling between her thighs, he carefully spread her legs, his hands hooking under her hips, then reach
"When?""You will meet her soon, I know you will love her".He replied to Gabi."We look forward to it, son," Lucas said warmly. "Take care of yourself and your family."*******Standing at the balcony, Angela dialed Yuki, who answered almost immediately. "Angela!" Yuki's voice was bright and filled with relief. "How are you? I have been dead worried, oh my goodness!""I'm okay, Yuki," Angela said with a smile. "Is everything alright over there? How are the kids?"Yuki's voice softened."They're great. Don't worry, they've been asking about you all day. I'll put them on the phone."Angela's heart swelled with relief and happiness as she heard the excited voices of her twins and little Antonio Junior in the background."Mummy!" the teenagers shouted in unison, their joy palpable through the phone.Angela's eyes filled with tears, but they were happy tears this time. "Hey, my babies!" she said, her voice trembling slightly. "I miss you all so much.""We miss you too, Mum!" Lia said. "
