Bryant's pov"I have tolerated this nonsense for far too long… "I sat down cross-legged as I looked at the older woman that had introduced herself to me several weeks ago as my grandmother waking up without my memories had been so unnerving but I could feel the warmth that had come from this woman the moment she landed her eyes on me how it had been so painted with such sincere worry it was almost impossible to believe that we didn't have the same blood flowing through our veins.But as she loved me I guess she also had similar affection for the man that I had just thrown behind bars. How unfortunate.I had moved back into the house that she had been inviting me to for so long mostly to spend more time with my wife and also to be seen as a peace offering but she only saw this as a chance to plug my life complaining viciously that I should release Oscar.Now in the early hours of dawn, she had marched into my bedroom without pushing the door open and demanding to speak with me. I shou
Anna povThis has to be some kind of joke.I have repeated that phrase to myself so many times since Bryant lost his memory that it is almost becoming a mantra for me at this point.If I knew that things would have deteriorated to this point I would have never told him to marry that useless whore.Getting a signal from my GPS I turned around a few more times before I arrived at a respectable but secretive hotel. I glanced at my wrist watch and then I walked out of my car, opening the door and keeping my sunglasses tightly fixed to my face.I had even brushed my hair so roughly that most of it would be covering my face like a curtain. It earned me a funny look at the receptionist's office but I couldn't care any less as I headed up to my destination on the top floor grinning from ear-to-ear.All the tension that had built up for me this week would finally be released, I got into the hotel and then started setting the mood for the other person that was going to join me playing slow musi
Kiara pov"You probably already know why I called you here," Anna asked me as she crossed her legs on the dining table, the table that I was setting so that my husband could have his breakfast. I looked at her unable to hide my distaste and she caught on to my expression quickly. "Are you glaring at me?"She demanded to know slamming her open palm on the table and propelling herself up to her feet.I was backing away from the eggs that I was supposed to be cracking for an omelet.I mumbled that I wasn't glaring at her which was just basically me lying right through my teeth because that is exactly what I was doing a moment ago. Putting up with her nonsense was becoming more and more intolerable everyday and now I was becoming more self-conscious because my husband was living with us once again.I had arrived at the kitchen with a big smile on my face and now it has been turned upside down because of this annoying person."You should know your place…"She said to me in a twisted t
Kiara's povThe silence that entered the dining area when Anna said that was louder than an exploding bomb and I just looked at her, my jaw now running to the ground, my eyes skipped over to my husband.Panic immediately ran through every fiber of my body when I noticed he was rushing at his former fiancee."What did you just say to my mate?" He growled from the bottom of his throat and I watched as all of the color in her face immediately washed off. I would have been scared too if I was in her position.I was sitting across from her but hearing that sound was enough to make me feel cold all over even if it wasn't directed at me.My husband's eyes were obviously hot with rage and I was afraid of what he would do if he acted in this anger-and how it will be conveniently blamed on me- so with a movement that was swift as a breath I was standing next to him and my arm interlocked with his own."Bryant, she didn't mean it like that!" I never thought that a time would come when I would b
Bryant's povEven though I kept a straight face throughout the rest of the day, deep down inside I was troubled.Even though I was not expecting my wife to jump through the roof when I told her I wanted us to live alone. I wasn't expecting her to look like someone that had just gotten a blow straight to the gut.She quickly burnt the idea, until it was nothing more than ashes.I have not pressed on with that idea because she didn't seem comfortable about it and at the same time, as I looked at her going through her duties for the day, I was dying to ask why it seemed so unbelievable I wanted to live alone with my spouse.Before I had hoped that without the burden of our official positions in the office, we would be even closer to each other under the same roof, but it seemed as if as many people walked through that door we became nothing but strangers to each other.Even though I have not brought it up because she would go viciously out of her way to avoid me when we were under the sa
Kiara povDo I really overwork myself? With my hands crossed, and my eyes darting around the elevator I asked myself this question over and over again. Maybe I did.Then when my heart goes back to how my husband had saved and touched me earlier I can't help but blush. In fact, my entire body still has the awareness of his hand all over me and his manly scent in the air.Gosh! My husband is freaky handsome and all no wonder other girls always want him to notice them. I was slightly grateful for the privacy I had in the empty elevator, and as I started going down every floor I thought it would remain that way until somebody suddenly stopped and a pair of long nails pushed the door open again, or and somebody else joined me.Following her was a thick waft of perfume that almost evacuated all of the oxygen inside of the elevator, I turned around to recognize the person that had joined me."I should have expected that I would see you here lazing around, where are you going to?"My lips
Kiara's POVI was waiting for a taxi and at the same time battling not to cry waving my hands and the only thing I could think about was the image of the two of them looking like a perfect couple as they walked out of the company.Well, they were the perfect couple.A cruel voice told me in my head, but as heartless as the voice was, it was telling me the truth and nothing else. They have been destined to get married to each other and me being mated to Bryant must have been nothing but a mistake.It was foolish of me to think that just because of a convenient circumstance he was going to fall right into my lap and fall in love with me. I was just the one deceiving myself he didn't have his memories yet and yet look at how Anna so naturally wrapped around him.Part of me wanted to crawl up on the pavement and burst into tears but the little strength I had was still keeping me on my feet until a taxi finally stopped for me, the only other occupant was a young male that had headphones on
Bryant povI shouldn't have called her, I told myself over and over again but then a voice inside of me asked me if it was far much better to leave my wife worrying about my whereabouts for the rest of the night definitely not but at the same time I don't think that I eased her mind by just vaguely dropping that I was in the hospital and ending the call there.But I felt like this was something that was better explained in person she might come to the wrong conclusion if I told her over the phone one thing I have learned about my wife was despite her beauty and competence and the fact that I only had eyes for her she refused to do anything else but compare herself with every woman she came across even people that were clearly not up to her standard she would bring herself down and compare her worth to theirs.Every time she did this she left me in stupefied shock because in my eyes nobody could compare to my wife they couldn't even hold a candle to her and yet she couldn't even see ha
