Dominic POV

I sat in the conference room, trying to focus on the presentation in front of me. But my thoughts kept drifting back to Charlene. She was a constant distraction, even though I hated her. There was something about her that I couldn't shake, no matter how hard I tried.

The kiss that we shared yesterday was something I never expected would happen. I was supposed to hate this woman for everything she had done to me but instead, I was thinking about her.

I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. I couldn't afford to let my emotions get in the way of business, especially not when it came to Charlene. She was a thorn in my side but that thorn was starting to become a rose.

"Mr. Maximus, I have Charlene on the line for you," my assistant said, interrupting my thoughts.

I opened my eyes and nodded, reaching for the phone on the table in front of me. "Put her through," I said, my voice sounding gruffer than I intended.

I replied, trying to keep my excitement contained.As I walked around the room, I noticed Mary headed towards me and when she reached my side, she smiled at me. "Hey Mary," I greeted her, and she didn't reply instead, she moved closer to Zenobia and grabbed her hand. "We have something that we would love to show you," Mary announced.

It was the final rehearsal before the festival that was going to take place the following day, and I wanted everything to be perfect. As their teacher and mentor, I had been working with them tirelessly for weeks, and I wanted them to do their very best. "Are you all ready?" I asked them and they all nodded their heads at me.

  • Married for Revenge    The Dance festival 1

    Charlene POV The dance festival was finally here and I couldn’t be happier because I was able to teach the children for three weeks and bond with all of them. I never expected that someone who was rejected by society's few backs was starting to get back on her feet. I had thought that I wouldn’t be accepted by anyone but the accident that brought Zenobia and me together changed everything. It made me feel like a different person and I was grateful for that. ‘’I am so ready!’’ Zenobia shouted to Jackson as they both stretched. I smiled as I watched them and then I looked around me to see how the children were conversing with one another. The ballerinas had pink dresses on and the hip-hop dancer had a jean and white round necks on. They were all ready to dance that night and so was I. I joined the girls in dressing in a pink dress and it was the first time that I was going to dance on the stage again after five years. ‘’hey miss Charlene,’’ Jackson walked up to me.’’I am so gratefu

I nodded in response and rubbed my hands together anticipating those we were about to see on stage. ‘’please make welcome, the children who will perform a dance of both ballet and pop for us. They refer to their dance as the Dance of love,’’ my heart started racing as Dominic made the announcement. I heaved a deep sigh and bite my lower lips as I turned to face the children. ‘’let's do this!’’ I shouted and they all cheered. I moved backstage as the music started playing and gasped when I saw that thousands of people had come to watch the dance according to what Dominic and Edward had told me, it was being broadcast around the world since the prime minister was in attendance.

    Charlene POV I couldn't help but smile as I finished dancing with the children on the stage. They were all so adorable and full of energy, and it was a pleasure to see them having fun. The audience clapped and cheered as we took our final bow, and I felt a sense of satisfaction wash over me. This was what I lived for - bringing joy to others. As we stepped off the stage, the Prime Minister himself came to greet us. "Bravo, bravo!" he exclaimed, shaking our hands. "You three have truly outdone yourselves with this festival. It's a wonderful thing you've done for the community." Dominic, Edward, and I thanked him, feeling proud and honored to have received his praise. Then, he presented us with an award, and we posed for pictures with him. After the Prime Minister left the stage, Edward handed me the award with a smile. "Congratulations, Charlene. You deserve this more than anyone." I held the award in my hands, feeling a surge of happiness and gratitude. "Thank you, Edward. But th

    Dominic POV ‘’how could you have been taking the shots without stopping? Are you out of your goddamn mind!’’ I screamed at Charlene who had been drinking nonstop ever since I left her side. During the dance, I never expected that she would reveal her secret to the world and I had thought that she had found out about my secret but when she didn’t mention the victims, I was glad that she had not found out about them. I was going to tell her only after I have gotten my revenge but now, it was hard to get revenge on her. I helped Charlene towards our room, feeling her weight against me as she stumbled and swayed. She had had too much to drink, and I was furious at her for losing control like this. As we walked, she suddenly vomited all over me and herself, and I couldn't help but scream at her in anger. "What the hell, Charlene! How much did you drink?" I shouted, trying to steady her. "I'm sorry, Dom," she slurred, leaning against me. "I didn't mean to ruin your shirt." "You didn't m

  • Married for Revenge    The truth

    Charlene POV I rubbed my head as I fluttered my eyes open. I rolled to the other side. I noticed that it was empty and surprisingly cold. My head pounded as If I was hit by a hammer. I stood up from the bed and looked around hoping to see a sign of Dominic but he was nowhere to be found. ‘’Dominic,’’ I called for him but his presence was no longer in the room and it seemed that he was nowhere to be found. Even though I had a drink like a maniac last night, I could still remember a few things about what had happened between us. Dominic and I had made love and that was the first time he had shown his passionate side. Our past sex couldn’t be considered as something romantic because each time we always have sex, he never allows me to touch him and would continue to say crazy things about me but last night was special. I had confessed to loving him and I was glad that I did. I stood up from the bed and stretched as I headed toward the bathroom. Because I couldn’t find Dominic inside th

    Charlene POV After we finished taking the pictures with the directors and the children, I headed towards my room to pack my luggage as Dominic had informed us that we were leaving the orphanage that evening. I was in rush towards my room while also thinking about the envelope sent to me that I didn’t notice that I had collided with someone. ‘’I am sorry,’’ I apologized not realizing that the person I had apologized to was Alexa. It was until I raised to face her that I realized that she was the one in front of me. ‘’if you knew who was standing in front of you, I doubt that you would say something of such,’’ she said as she grinned at me. I heaved a deep sigh, my heart beating fast as I raised my head to face her. ‘’what the hell do you want from me?’’ I asked him frowning at her. Alexa laughed and then she started circling me. ‘’didn’t you get the message that I sent to you this morning?’’ she asked and I gasped out loud knowing that she was responsible for the envelope.

    Charlene POV The Party, 08:30 pm I stepped out of the black limousine, Guards flanking me on both sides. I wore a red glittering dress that hugged my curves, and my hair was styled in loose waves that cascaded down my back. I looked around, scanning the area for any signs that the plan had begun. The night air was cool and crisp, and the sounds of the city echoed around me. I could hear the honking of car horns, the murmur of people's conversations, and the distant sound of music coming from a nearby nightclub. It was the perfect cover for what we were about to do. Tonight is the day we would attack and take back everything that was taken from us and then it will belong to us. There was no time to waste and so, I walked towards the entrance handing the invitation card that was given to me. It was the one Maria had given to me to use since I was going to perform as a ballet dancer. ‘Welcome,’’ The bouncer bowed his head as he collected the invitation card. I had come under the dis

When we got in, almost all of the children were seated in the hall while waiting for us.‘’Miss Charlene!’’ The miss who was in charge of the children greeted us as we stood in front of the children.‘’hello Miss Christina,’’ I bowed my head as I greeted her. ‘’it is so lovely to see you,’’ s

    Charlene POV Two days left, I sat beside Dominic and across from Edward while Maria was seated opposite Dominic. I could feel the tension in the room as they both stared intently at each other. I cleared my throat to gain their attention as to the reason why we all had gathered there. ‘’Listen up,’’I mutt ered and nudged Dominic on the shoulder. Dominic faced me with a questioning look and heaved a deep sigh as he lowered his head. ‘’fine,’’ he muttered under his breath. I was glad that he acknowledged me and also that he got to accept my request. While I had tried to convince him for two days about What Maria had told me, he had ignored me for a few hours while refusing to let Maria join us but after calling Edward and Informing him, he was able to help out and with his help, I got to set an appointment and we all gathered at our home in Dominic’s office. ‘’Your sources are right about the party and I also love your plan,’’ Maria spoke up after Edward told her about their plan. ‘

    Charlene POV I groaned and forced myself out of bed, feeling exhausted and nauseous. I stumbled into the bathroom, where I brushed my teeth and splashed cold water on my face. As I stared at my reflection in the mirror, I couldn't help but feel a sense of dread wash over me. I knew that today was going to be another tough day. I rinsed my mouth again for the umpteenth time that morning after throwing up. My baby wouldn’t let me rest and I wondered if he was reacting to the fact that I ate something bad or maybe because I was avoiding Dominic. According to what I heard from doctors, babies tend to understand how their mothers are feeling and they react due to what their mothers are facing. ‘’my baby,’’ I muttered as I rubbed my stomach. ‘’Can you understand the pain that I am going through at the moment?’’I asked my baby and even though I didn’t get a response, I knew that my baby understand how I felt. After I walked back into my room, I got a message from an unknown number. When I

After informing him about Maria, I set up a meeting in my office to speak to him about what I thought about, and when she got there, we both sat down and stared at each other.‘’Are you going to keep staring at me?’’I asked him when it looked like he would not say anything. ‘’I heaved a deep sigh and rolled my eyes when he didn’t stop staring at me; instead, he was looking around. ‘’Edward!’’ I shouted his name. ‘’what Is happening?’’‘’why are we in your office instead of your home?’’ he asked and I wondered why he couldn’t see that I wanted alone with him.‘’Ever since Maria came to my house, Charlene had been avoiding me and she wouldn’t even talk to me. The only thing she ever said to me was that everything was fine but aside from that, she wouldn’t even say anything else.’’Edward tapped his hands on the table and heaved a de

    Maria POV My heart was pounding as I stumbled backward, my hand flying up to my cheek where the man in the black mask had just slapped me. I heard a scream and realized it was my own. I looked up to see the man advancing on me."You bitch," he snarled, grabbing me by the arm and pulling me close. I could smell his foul breath, feel the roughness of his grip. ‘’you were given a job and that is getting rid of the pest around him but you failed.’’ Caroline stood up and walked towards me. She raised her hand and slapped me hard across the face. ‘’you were given a job to do but yet, you failed because you couldn’t deliver well!’’ she yelled at me and pushed me backward. "You attacked my son instead of going after Charlene," she hissed, her hand tightening into a fist. ‘’I saved your pathetic life years ago because I believed that you would be useful to me but it seemed that you are nothing but a piss of shit!’’ I tried to explain that I didn't mean to hurt him, but the words caught in

    Dominic POVI never imagined that she would come to find me. After finding out that she was alive, I even hid it from Charlene because I didn’t want her to worry but Maria found her way into my home expecting that I would run into her arms. I dragged her out of the house when she was starting to get on my nerves by acting as if anyone wanted her back. I took her to Charlene’s studio and we both stand there staring at each other without talking for a few minutes.I folded my arms while waiting for her to say something, and explain her reasons for returning back but instead, she looked around the room chuckling as she pointed to the mirror and the couches that were in the room. ‘’I never thought that you would marry the woman that was responsible for my death,’’ she told me and scoffed. ‘’here you are acting as if everything is alright when I died and I lost my child Alexander.She was right about that because I never thought about him.

    Charlene POVI burst into laughter as Dominic woke up and rubbed my stomach. ''hello baby!'' he said. It was morning and I didn’t get much sleep the previous night because Dominic and I had a round of sex that I couldn’t even count. It was an amazing night with him and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. ‘’Dominic!’’ I screamed out his name as he grabbed my hands and pinned them above my head then he kissed me on my lips.‘’I want to be with you today with no worries and I…..’’ he stopped suddenly when we heard a knock on the door. ‘’who is there!’’ he shouted at whosoever was at the door. My thoughts were that the person who was at the door would be none other than Miss Donna. She was the only one with us in the house.‘’Mr. Maximus, you have a visitor!’’ she announced.A visitor? I exchanged looks with Dominic because the last time that I checked, we were not expecting Edward until evening and Dominic was working from home so I couldn’t figure out who was at the door.‘’Do you know w

    Charlene POVI wiped my lips clean as I threw up again. One of the reasons why I had walked out on Dominic and Edward was because I felt nauseous and also dizzy. I had been having been facing insomnia lately and could barely sleep but I couldn’t tell Dominic because we were all faced with a lot of problems I would have loved to tell him but at the same time, I hated the fact that he was trying to remove me from joining them.I washed my mouth and stared at myself in the mirror. My reflection was not what I expected from someone that had been finding it hard to sleep. I had expected that bags would be under my eyes but instead, my face was glowing. I placed my hand on my stomach and heaved a deep sigh. ‘’my baby,’’ I closed my eyes. ‘’I am going to protect you, Zenobia, and also Stella. The three of us are going to live forever until the end,’’ I chuckled as I whispered to my child even though I knew that he couldn’t hear what I had said.
