Meeting The Family

Oh! Right. She was one of Eric's acquaintances. Our eyes met across the room, and she smiled at me. I returned her smile. In addition to Elaina being here, It also felt good to have Jessica show up.

"Isn't that Jessica Lawn, the famous fashion director slash designer?" Elaina asked when she first noticed Jessica by the door.

"Yes, that's her," I answered.

"She just smiled at you, are you two acquainted?"

"Not until this morning."

"Wait! Tell me she made your dress."

Tilting toward her, I giggled at her expression. "She did. My makeup as well and my hair." I replied and watched Elaina run her accessing eyes on me.

"Single-handedly?" She asked and I nodded.

"Wow!" She said, "He must really love you to hire a professional as Jessica Lawn to dress you up, and that too, single-handedly. Is this love that I'm seeing?" Elaina said dramatically.

I smiled and looked away from her, she already believed that it was love. If only she knew that the marriage was simply the result

    First ExperienceI was about to take a step away from where I was standing, I felt a tug on my arm and when I turned around, my mom was boring her eyes into mine, and shaking her head sideways."Don't do it." She muttered to me. "It's your wedding party, you can't let Rayne see a confrontation between you and them."She was right. Now that I'm married, certain things are going to change. But I never knew so much would change in the space of a few months.I took in deep breaths of calmness then strolled towards the men in suits."Eric!" The poised dark-haired man in their midst called out to me. "There you are." My father, Mr. Lawn said when he noticed me approaching. Then he turned to the men he had been speaking with and excused himself. As I walked away with him, Salvatore Ferragamo, one of the men narrowed his eyes at me in a death stare.We strolled out of the large hall to the balcony."You didn't tell us about your intentions of getting married." He said after a long silence tha

    A New Development"Rayne dock!" He screamed and dragged me into his body. The force of his pull made my head spin and I blacked out.I blinked my eyes open and the first thing I noticed was the alluring radiance of my favorite color. I looked around and noticed the slightly familiar items all around and I realized I was in my room at Eric's house. I tried to get up m, but it felt difficult. My head ached and I felt dizzy. I shut my eyes back close, allowing my brain time to register that I was fully awake. Then I opened them again and heard my door creak open, and Elaina walked in wearing a worried expression."Oh my goodness, Rayne, you're awake." She said, hurrying toward me and I couldn't help but wonder what had happened. Like an awakening, Eric's light chuckle rang in my head, then his scream of panic came afterward. Like that, all the memories came all at once, flooding my head, and reawakening the headache I had been trying to control.Elaina took my hand in hers and smiled and

    Not a GentlemanERIC's POVI paced around the room resisting the urge to knock on the bathroom door. She was taking a long time to come out and I was getting worried. She wasn't crying again in there, was she? Almost twenty minutes and she was still in there. How could she take that much time with such a little body?The door finally opened and I turned around and watched her step out in a towel around her chest and head.Mmm... not bad, she looked cute. I looked up at her and saw her blushing so hard with her head bowed. She wasn't expecting me to leave the room for her to get dressed, was she? Because I've never been a gentleman."Come here, wife." I beckoned to her and watched her take those slow steps toward me. I lifted her chin once she was close to me and searched her cat-shaped hazel eyes for any visible sign that she had cried again, but there were no signs that she had teared up. I for one was surprised, but then again, it felt good knowing that she hadn't.I slid a hand int

    ERIC's POV"Come sit with me, wife," I told her, abruptly stopping her from taking the seat opposite from the model. Then, with her eyes pinned to the ground, she walked up to me and tried sitting on the chair beside me, but I stopped her yet again."Not there, wife, on my lap," I said, patting my thighs. I expected her to give me the innocent look with silently pleading eyes, but she didn't. She simply nodded and sat on my lap. It was surprising that she did, but that surprise was soon replaced by something else that got awakened immediately after she sat on me. I felt her weight on me, stiff, like a statue. She was nervous. The dishes were soon rolled into the dining room and distributed on the table. All done, the maids turned around in a file to leave but I stopped them."Remain there." I had always preferred to eat alone with no one standing in front of me, and they were my servants, they knew that, so, it was a surprise to them that I wanted them to just stand there when they cl

    HoneymoonRAYNE'S POVWhile Eric was away all day, I remained in the room with Elaina, just as a huge-bodied man in a black suit and glasses had instructed. It was obvious that the order had come from Eric. Elaina and I stayed in the room chit chatting and gossiping about a lot of things, including the happenings around the modeling industry to which she belonged, and while these chats helped momentarily take my mind away from my problems, there was a distinct budging deep inside my heart that I couldn't understand. And at night I strangely couldn't sleep alone, so I asked Elaina if I could share her room.ERIC's POV.... Morning...I returned to the house and headed first into Rayne's room, but surprisingly, she wasn't in bed nor was she in the bathroom. I dashed out of the room to the model's, banging desperately on her door. My blood had already started to boil and a certain rage was building up within me. More infuriating was that the model wasn't opening her goddamn door. I was g

    FredRAYNE'S POV.After we had finished having breakfast, we walked out of the restaurant, but just when we were almost close to where the car was parked, Eric's phone rang and he excused himself to go take it."Go wait in the car." He said and walked away into the car lot and I continued towards the car when I heard a familiar voice call out my name. I stopped and turned around to see Fred standing right behind me, looking as well groomed and handsome as the last time I stood face to face with him.It was a shame seeing him looking great while I stayed at the receiving end of his infidelity. Seeing him only reminded me of my hurts and what I had seen and heard that night. But I also couldn't help but wonder what he was doing there.A part of me wanted to run to him and give him a big hug and tell him how much I missed him, whereas the other part scolded my foolish thoughts and reminded me that I was now married and betrothed to Eric.But, for what reason was he there, had he been fol

    StoryERIC's POVI stopped in my tracks and turned around to find Rayne standing with someone, and something knotted in my chest when I saw it was a guy. I could read the surprise in her expression when she turned around to look at him."I'd call you later," I said into the phone and ended the call immediately. I wanted to go to her, but then I decided against it when someone else showed up from behind the masculine figure. It was a girl, a brunette. Then she also said Rayne's name. It seemed she was acquainted with these people. But, I could tell something was amid. I never saw a smile on her face while she talked with them. She instead had a look of perplexity on her, as if she was trying to comprehend something. Her eyes were locked on the couple's intertwined arms. I could only wonder who they were and what role they played in her life before our wedding.I quickly took a snap of them and sent the photo to one of my private investigators. "Get me information on the couple in that

    Beauty and The Beast.ERIC's POV"Beauty and the beast." She said and I couldn't help but chuckle at her reaction. Then I got up and strolled towards the wardrobe, at the back of it, I inputted a pin and the bookshelf drew out of the wall. I bet she didn't know that a shelf for books existed in her room, cause she had a surprised look on her by the time I returned with it."The model said you like books, so I got you an in-house library." I sat next to her, then flipped the book open. I have never liked literature and novels and other works relating to fiction. Reading about things that did not exist. But, I was now married to a little woman who loved them, hence, it was my responsibility to read her bedtime stories.RAYNE'S POVWhen he returned with the book, I could tell that he barely wanted to read it. I mean, things like reading bedtime stories weren't something a man of his Calibre would want to do.He flipped through the pages of the book with a bored expression. I could tell h

What did they possibly have to say about Rayne? The FBi and my men were on the case even though it hasn't had any progress or trace. "Sit." was my stern voice.I hadn't forgotten so quickly that Bianca was the reason Rayne left.Bianca handed me a piece of paper "That is the map showing the location I think Rayne would be." she said. "Not think, she's there." Sarah said I wasn't ready for their shenanigans today and not now I wasn't in my frame of mind. I looked at the information in my hands, it was a map leading to the boundary of the town.But what would Rayne be doing there, and why would Sarah want to help me find her. "You don't have to trust me but you can assign your men to go there in search of her." Sarah stated. "Let's go, I told you he doesn't believe us." Bianca said, trying to drag Sarah along.

I heard the secretary greeted me."I want to see your boss." I stated."I'm sorry ma'am but he has been off for a few days now." she replied politely.If Fred wasn't in the office and also not at home could it be that he has been with Rayne all through.I felt that sting of jealousy in me as I walked out of the company in annoyan
