"Are you even listening to me?" Is it because I was not as tall as him? I knew many short people don't get taken seriously but damn. Is he trying to use his height as an advantage against me now? I was so frustrated that I found myself pulling my hair and the bun I placed it in loose, making it spill like a torn dress. I can't do this."I'm sorry," I said, keeping my voice low, perhaps this tone will get it into his thick skull. "I am not like other women who love being claimed by you, that shit irritated me.""Is that so?" His voice was low and husky, completely different from how it sounded before. His sudden change of tone made me remember what I was putting on. I had stood up abruptly as our argument grew heated. I didn't even realize I was only in my underwear and a t-shirt until I felt his unwavering gaze on me. My hair was loose and cascading down my back, and I could feel his eyes lingering on my curves. This scene, this idiot may take it that I was trying to seduce him to
Jason's POVI am such a fool!! I am such a fool!! Am I possessed? This is a possession right? Is it an hidden sickness? Why would I kiss that girl and like it? I don't like her, I can barely even tolerate her, I love Jade. Why do I love the feeling of her lips on mine though? Why can't I stop thinking about it?I decided to take a shower to clear my head but if anything, it made my feelings worse. I can't seem to get her out of my head. Every time I close my eyes, I see her face and feel the softness of her lips on mine. It was just a kiss, but it was a kiss that I can't seem to forget.I know I shouldn't be feeling this way. I love someone else, and have been planning to make things work between me and Rachel for a long time now. But there's something about the way Violet looked at me, the way she smiled, that just made my heart race.I remember what happened earlier this night perfectly. Am I a type of guy that will get turned on by a shirt? Was it her hair? Did she charmed me? Why
Rachel's PovI can't do this. Every single second I spend away from Jason gives that b***h an opportunity to get closer to him. This wasn't supposed to be how I envisioned it. I came back to claim him to be mine again. Jason had always been mine from the start. I wasn't going to let any woman come to take him away. Although I trusted Jason's love for me, I was wary of that woman. Violet seem like a sneaky one.I was prancing in the kitchen like I was crazy. I was going crazy, I had to think of something. If I don't, she would win over Jason's heart. I have been thinking about it for many days now and I still have no idea on what to do. It is not as if I can burn down my house or something?Or could I? My eyes widened at that thought as it fell on the gas cooker opposite me. Burning down the house wasn't going to be easy. But it was a risk I was willing to take so I could have access to Jason.If he was truly in love with me still, he would come for me. Crying was easy for me. Growi
Clara's POVA popular brand just launched a private showcase and as a fashion lover that I was, it was not surprising that I got an invitation. I was already dressed, in a flowy silk dress that was sure to make everyone else look second place, my nails were done, hair on point, lips popping.“You look gorgeous, Miss,” the stylist gushed. I inwardly scowled at her praises. Who was she kidding? Of course, I should be beautiful, after all, I spent lots of money to look this beautiful.“Thank you. Could you please wrap it up?” I said, impatiently.I was already in my car, ready to start the engine, when I got a call from one of my so-called friends.“I would rather not bear these people babbling today.” I sighed, rejecting the call with no hesitation. The person called back and I ignored it. On the fifth call, I picked it up with an angry sigh. Was this girl dumb enough not to know that if you call a person twice, and they don't pick up, they probably don't want to talk to you at that ex
Clara's POVI threw anything my hand could touch at Jason while screaming at him, “I hate you! You are such an asshole!! You don't deserve to be my brother." He stood up from his chair and held my hands to stop me. I tried to free myself from him and in doing so, I noticed a strange red light blinking. Jason followed my eyes and met the light blinking from the intercom.“Clara…”“You are so cruel, Jason,” At first, I was angry but now, I was just disappointed. I felt chilled to my heart, I can't believe that Jason, my blood brother, will do this.“So this is why you purposely called me to your study?” I asked, dragging my hands away from him, “You wanted to use one stone to kill two birds.”“Clara, you are thinking rubbish. “ He said, “I did not leave the intercom on purpose.”“And you want me to believe that?” A harsh laugh left my lips, “Jason Clarksville always does things on purpose. Since Rachel is here, you want to reassure her that you still love her at the expense of Violet
Joe's PovIt's been a while I went out so going out like this makes me feel great and I was even feeling greater when I came here. I was smiling faintly when I heard a voice behind me. There was a secret hidden deep in my heart and I have tried several times to take it off but it always end up fruitless. The only way I could make it less was to go out and even that always end up disastrous.I tried to hook up with several girls to clear off those troubles hidden deep down but I always come out with a broken heart each time. Today was another day I wanted to give a try to my heart again. So far, it was going smoothly and I wished it would continue. I was standing outside a small cafe waiting for my date of the night to come back from the bathroom. You don't know how hard it was to score a date even with that perverted Derek following me about. Thinking about that demonic nurse, I felt an immediate headache popping up. Why on earth would he be stuck on me? Can't he get the message tha
VIOLET'S POVI entered my room and shut the door, falling to the floor. My fingers tingle as my heart races faster, pounding in my chest like a drum. I can feel the hot tears brimming behind my eyelids and as I take deep breaths to try and regain control of myself nothing seems to help. I focus on trying not to alarm those around me but it feels impossible for all these overwhelming emotions be contained within one person. My vision starts closing in on itself and suddenly everything was spinning so fast that cannot comprehend what's happening anymore.I want this feeling to go away so badly - the tightness in my throat; the way time moves differently when I was drowning in my own state of depression. I wondered what I was thinking all these while about Jason. Was it worth my fleeting emotions? I tried taking in more breaths to control my emotional panic. You know the feeling of trying to sound fine when it was obvious you are probably having your own panic attacks - but end up feel
Jason's POVI fucked up. I don't even know how I made such a low class mistake like leaving the intercom on but because of that little mistake, Clara and Violet have not talked to me for two days. At least Clara was in her house and I know I could pacify her anytime soon. But Violet was an entirely different case. I can't seem to even find a trace of Violet even though she stays with me. Usually, she reminded me to take drugs but now, she was like air. To her, I must be a plague she desperately want to avoid. I don't blame her, I know that it was all my fault. Nonetheless, it hurts to feel her indifference. I was still her husband even if it was just a deal! I know that I was very mean in speaking just so I could get rid of Clara's weird thoughts but I never knew there will be such a terrible coincidence and she would hear it. I don't know why I felt hurt seeing her hurting you are not a weak man, neither are you a proud man. I will go and apologize to her. I made up my mind to d
Violet’s POVWaking up knowing your best friend is dead feels like a whole part of you has been taken and you just feel numb and in denial.I've spent the last forty two hours convincing myself that a miracle would happen and Clara would come back to us, smiling and hugging me again.My entire world shattered the day Rachel put a bullet into Clara’s chest, hitting her far too close to her heart, no chance of survival, what the doctor said and it’s been replaying in my head for hours.The agony in my chest feels like a thousand knives, each one deeper and more excruciating than the last every breath I take is a cruel reminder that she no longer takes any at all and it was all my fault.Her absence is a gaping wound that nothing can heal. The memories, once a source of joy, now feel like a cruel joke played by time. I remember the warmth of her smile, the sparkle in her eyes, and the way her laughter could light up even the darkest of days especially when I’d come to her about Jason .
Jason 's POVI was on edge. Violet had been kidnapped for the third time. I don't even know when those people would stop.I already had a team working on finding her location while I tried to calm the fuck down, which isn’t working out for me.Pacing around, I finally got informed that they had found her location. When it came to my wife, my rational thinking was considered non-existent and I quickly rushed over to the location.I went into the small building which looked like a closed down bakery on the outside but was very different on the inside.I went in alone and followed the sounds of people talking in the distance.My feet led me into a room with not so much lighting but I could see two figures standing opposite the door.Camille and Rachel . I fucking knew it.They noticed I had arrived “Ah Jason welcome, we’ve been waiting for you y’know? Took you long enough.” He said while relaxing his elbows on a table nearby.I quickly observed the room and noticed a small door in som
Rachel 's POV“Why would you do something as insensible as this?!” Camille asked the boys who helped us kidnap Violet and her best friend, who was also my ex boyfriend's sister.“When the task was given to you, I asked of only Violet . Not anyone else. Can't you all do a clean job?” Camille continued his scolding. The boys shuddered in fear, honestly I didn't know why Camille was behaving this way. His reaction was annoying, I was happy to get Violet. Clara was a bonus, that bitch never liked me even when I was dating her brother. “They were together boss, it would be unprofessional on our path to take only one of them sir. The other one would have raised an alarm immediately and it wouldn't be this outcome sir.” one of the boys which I assumed to be the leader said. “Bullshit!” Camille retorted angrily. “Calm down Cam, their reasons are factual. Besides this is a bonus for us, Clara was always an obstacle on my part.” I said to him.Not that I forgot the escapades between Camil
Violet 's POVI sat among everyone deciding whether I was ready to do this. I felt my hands sweaty from being too anxious and I had to take deep breaths to calm myself down.This was one of the things I hated, I didn’t like to address people. This was one of the reasons why this position was not right for me. I can barely speak in the presence of a lot of people, it was not just my thing.I knew Charles was very capable. He was outspoken and capable. Besides this was what he had always wanted. “Good morning ma'am,” they greeted as they all walked in. I wasn’t used to this but I tried, I liked to be free. I wanted to be free. Maybe I could tell them not to address me as ma’am.“Good morning everyone. As you must know I am the heir of the Shakesmen property.” I said, introducing myself.I never imagined myself to be in this position a few years back. I had always thought I was going to continue living my normal life. Though it pained me that I could not live with my family. I did not
Violet 's POVJason had just gotten back from work and I welcomed him. He looked hungry. I reached out to kiss him and what he did next shocked me. His right hand, firmly gripped on my hips this time, he pulled me closer as he sucked on my neck area. Using his left hand, he shut the door behind us and locked it rapidly. "Jason ," I called slowly as what he was doing to me was really messing my head up."I miss us baby," he groaned.This time as I was pinned by the wall, he devoured my upper lips and then my lower lips. He did this interchangeably. Soon as I was filled with pleasure, I wanted more and decided to kiss him back the way I wanted.I entangled my tongue with his as I proceeded to use my hands to tease his cock area. I felt him moaning in my mouth which made me feel satisfied.After continuously sucking and devouring each other's lips, I decided to spice up the moment by going naked.I struggled to remove my shirt because he refused to free my lips from his. When he noti
Rachel 's POVI hit the steering wheel angrily!“F**k! This shouldn't have happened.” I muttered to myself. Despite all my tries, it seems Violet just always slips off at the time of death. I was only smart enough this time to have escaped, else I would have also been arrested. The only mistake Violet was making was thinking I was going to back down. I would never back down, I have to kill that wench!Right now I was on the lookout, I had to be careful else I will end up behind bars. The only person that could help me was someone with affluence and power. My parents would never agree to help me. In fact my father, when he heard that I was involved in the case again, had decided to disown me. My mother was mad at me but she was still considerate unlike my father. All these was no one else's fault aside from that bi*ch called Violet. I won't relent until I see her buried six feet to the ground.I also hated Jason with passion. After all I've done for him, he still chose to betray
Jason 's POVViolet walked towards my direction with a smile. The smile that makes my heart flutter whenever I see it. There was just this thing that she does to me, I couldn't explain it. There was a party organized for Violet 's welcome back. Few of the Hughes family were there. They were people we don't even know but they were kind enough and happy to receive Violet .Kaitlyn and her family were still in jail awaiting the court's order. Evidence had already shown that they were guilty of all crime charges. Now no one was going to bother my woman anymore.“Congratulations my love or should I say CEO.” I said, giving her a quick kiss. "I just hope you won't leave me now that it happened that you are far wealthier than me?" I asked playfully “Don't be silly, besides I told you I don't want to be the CEO,” she said.I stared at her with a frown, why would she not want to?“You know that I would stand by you whenever you need help, you don't have to be bothered about it.” I said to
Jason 's POV“Who are you?” someone in the board meeting asked. We had arrived earlier but we had to wait for the right time to strike. I had spoken to Violet a day before and told her all of our plans. Though, I wasn’t going to involve her too much with talking. I had made those plans ahead, I made sure they weren’t going to have to question her right. This was the least she deserved after suffering for years. Those evil doers had stripped her off her right. They didn’t allow her to enjoy her time with her family and now they also didn’t want her to enjoy her wealth. I wasn’t going to allow that Everyone's eyes were on us as we made our presence in the room.I knew they weren’t expecting us. In fact, they had forgotten about us when they got the documents. Their focus changed and that was exactly what we wanted. If their focus still remained on us, it wouldn’t have been easy to get some of the evidence we got today. “We are here to introduce the real heir of this company to you
Narrator's POV Violet and Jason had started receiving threats from unknown numbers about the whole issue. At first Violet was scared but Jason had told her not to be. They increased their security system and kept the evidence in a safe place. They were still pondering on what to do but Jason had gone to see Hughes' private lawyer and told him about the case. They had agreed to keep everything low for now and strike when the evil doers were not expecting it. Rachel on the other hand has agreed to work with Summer and Kaitlyn . She had craved for revenge and there couldn't be any better opportunity than this. Rachel didn't even bother to think things through, all she wanted was for Violet to be dead. Her life had turned miserable all thanks to that bitch and this was her final chance for revenge. She agreed immediately and they all devised a plan to get into Jason ’s house. Rachel knew Violet was gullible enough to accept her pleas if she begged so she went to Jason ’s
