Leo's POV “Stop it, can't you see that Aiden is here?” Allison scolded me, as I slotted my hand beneath her shirt to cup her breasts.The three of us were sitting on a sofabed in the private sitting room of my beach house in Turkey. Three days had passed since I proposed to Allison and we officially became a soon-to-be married couple.The rest of our family were currently at the other side of the beach house. I had designed the building of the beach house in such a way that my little family and I could have our own private time whenever we wanted, without any disturbance.“But his attention is fixated on Mickey mouse. He can't see us.” I argued, sliding my hand in between her legs which earned me a smack on the shoulder followed by a glare.As I made to defend myself yet again, my phone vibrated with a message.Reading through the text message which was sent by my mum, I smiled. “Mum and Dad are going for a walk downtown and they want to take Aiden with them.”“A walk with grandma an
Allison's POV As I stepped out of the bathroom after taking a refreshing shower, my phone pinged with an incoming call.On seeing that it was Tasha calling, I smiled before answering the call and pressing the phone to my ear.“Babe, you have to come to the balcony right now,” Tasha started with a tone of urgency. “Something happened.”My heart did a back flip as goosebumps instantly crowded my entire body. “What happened? Is Aiden okay?”“Just come quickly, alright? We are waiting for you.” She said, before hanging up.Swallowing harshly, I flung my phone on the bed before making my way to the closet to grab a casual outfit, while hoping everyone was alright.Fuck, I genuinely hoped nothing bad had happened on the eve of my wedding.That would be a sign of bad luck and I didn't want that. I just wanted to have my happily ever after with Leo, Aiden, and possibly our future children.We were currently lodged in a hotel in Las Vegas, as that was the destination of our wedding.Leo, his
Allison's POV“And I'm done,” Ophelia announced, after giving my face a final dab with the beauty blender. “You look ravishing, Allie.”Clasping my hands together to tame my nervous excitement, I breathed out. “So can I open my eyes now?”“Yes, most definitely.”Inhaling sharply, I flapped my eyes open and gasped on seeing my beautiful reflection in the mirror.Ophelia had hearkened my choice and instructions to the very least detail and had done a great job with both my face and hair.My makeup was a natural, dewy look that accentuated and drew more attention to my facial features rather than having a huge slab of foundation pasted on my face while my hair was tossed in a sleek, french bun with a diamond brooch inserted beside it.I looked like a princess who had just stepped out of a fairytale book, and I could barely hide my excitement as I assessed my face, a huge smile plastered to my face.“I look gorgeous,” I said. “You did a wonderful job, Lia, and I don't know if I'm ever gon
Leo's POV “You have a message,” Liam announced, gesturing to the gift bag he was holding, as he entered the room.Today was D-day. After many years of challenges, trials, and tribulations, Allison was finally going to be my wife just like I had always wanted.I had to pinch myself thrice when I woke up that morning, in order to be sure that I wasn't dreaming and today was really happening.“From who?” I asked, as he handed me the bag.“Allison.”My face softened with a wide grin as I retracted a burgundy velvet box from the bag.“I wonder what this is,” I muttered to myself, as I flipped the box open.My grin widened, to the point where my eyes creased when I saw the contents of the box; it consisted of a golden wristwatch, a pair of golden cufflinks to match with a golden pen.On the three items, my initials–LDS–was intricately inscribed on it.I couldn't help but feel warm and touched by her thoughtful, sentimental gifts, so I decided to forgo my initial choice of cufflinks and wri
Allison's POV “Where are you taking me?” I asked, cuffing my hands around Leo's wrist, as he led me out of the house, with his hands placed on my eyes, obstructing my vision.“It's a surprise, baby.” He said, and I could almost see him grinning mischievously.Three days had passed since our wedding, and in another three days, we were going to leave the country for our honeymoon in Greece.“Here we are,” Leo said, taking his hands off my eyes. “Have a look.”A gasp forced itself out of my throat when I saw a new black Mercedes Benz parked in the driveway, with a white bow taped to the trunk and the headlights.“How do you like it, my love? Is it to your taste?” Leo asked, as I gazed at the car in surprise.“It's perfect,” I whispered, shaking my head in happy disbelief. “I love it.”“I'm glad to hear that, honey,” Leo said, hooking an arm around my waist. “You love the color, right? Or would you like me to get someone to paint it to your desired colour?”“No, I love it like this,” I b
ONE YEAR LATERAllison's POV “Dinner is ready,” I announced, bringing out the tray of rotisserie chicken from the oven. “Leo and Aiden, are you done setting the table?”“Yes, baby.”“Yes, mummy.” Father and son replied in unison, as they entered the kitchen.After our wedding, Leo bought a mansion in Canada, and it was there that our little family lived now.He had told me that he decided to make Canada his permanent place of residence because of me. Mu close friends were here, and he didn't want me to be apart from them.Plus, my winery was also here. About a year ago, I finally reisgned from Leo's company and took over running the winery.So far, the experience had been quite exciting and rewarding, albeit challenging sometimes.“Hmm,” Leo closed his eyes and nodded in approval. “It smells so nice in here, my love.”“I eventually made the rotisserie chicken,” I replied, to which Aiden cheered. “with fried rice.”“And I bet it's gonna taste nicer than anything,” Leo said, walking up
Catherine's POV I nervously nibbled on my lower lip as I paced the large expanse of the living room. Sighing, I glanced at the wall clock and exhaled heavily when I saw the time. It was ten minutes past nine in the evening and Alessandro was yet to come home."Excuse me, ma'am," Someone spoke from behind me, and I turned to face them.The head maid of our household, Alice, grimaced as she fiddled with her fingers."Yes, any problem?" "Should I place the food in the refrigerator?" She asked, and my heart cut as a bitter realization struck me.Just like in the past, Alessandro was really going to be absent on our wedding anniversary.It wasn't just an ordinary anniversary; it was our third marriage anniversary and according to what I read on a website some years back, three was a lucky number that signified prosperity.Thus, I had gone over the top by preparing a variety of dishes that I was sure he liked.Since he rarely ate at home nowadays, I had secretly called his grandmother beca
Catherine's POV "W-What are you doing, Alessandro? Please I'm not in the mood," I begged, as he loosened the belt of my bathrobe. He paid no attention to my protests and just smiled wickedly before forcing my bathrobe open, and exposing my nakedness."You are my wife and your sole duty in my life is to ensure that I'm always sexually satisfied," He spat, unbuckling his belt and getting rid of his pants.Interesting. So now, I was his wife because he was in need of a release.As much as I wanted to have the old Alessandro back, I didn't want him like that.He was a predator while I was his prey that was shivering with fear as he pried my legs open.At that moment, I realized that begging him wasn't going to do anything, so I just decided to lie down as take it.He was right.My job was to give him sex whenever he wanted whether I was in the mood for it or not.After all, I lived under his roof and he bore all my responsibilities because I was his housewife.It was my role to ensure th

Three days had passed since I proposed to Allison and we officially became a soon-to-be married couple.The rest of our family were currently at the other side of the beach house. I had designed the building of the beach house in such a way that my little family and I could have our own private time whenever we wanted, without any disturbance.“But his attention is fixated on Mickey mouse.

Allison's POV “Baby, you forgot to tie your shoelace properly,” Leo scolded, as we walked out of the garden to have lunch in the balcony.Along with Leo's parents, siblings, sister in law and Aiden, we were currently at Leo's vacation house in Turkey having fun.A week had passed since the twenty seventh wedding anniversary of Leo's parents, and in all honesty, the celebration had yet to end.After the huge party that happened that day, Mr Alessandro and Ma'am Catherine hosted an intimate dinner among thier close family and friends to mark the occasion.Truly, it was good to be wealthy in a classy manner.I had also gotten the opportunity to meet Ma'am Catherine's best friend, Rita, who reminded me so much of an older version of Tasha.Their friendship was really wholesome and cute, and I could only hope Tasha and I turned out like the both of them in the future.As I made to bend down to tie my shoelaces, a quick realization struck me; I was wearing beach slippers and not sneakers o
Allison's POV “Ophelia called just now. They are leaving very soon, so we have to be on our way now.” Leo announced, as I helped Aiden into his shoes.“Alright, we are ready,” I said then averted my gaze to Aiden. “Right, baby?”“Yes, mummy!” He beamed like a Cheshire cat. “We are ready to meet uncle Liam and Aunty Lia.”Today was the twenty-seventh wedding anniversary of Leo's parents, and so, we were currently in America to celebrate the beautiful occasion with them.To me, they were the most adorable couple that I had ever seen and met.They both loved each other so much and Mr Alessandro always seemed to be worshipping the ground his wife stepped on. He looked at her with so much adoration and love and it was just so heartwarming.“Fuck, I can't believe I forgot,” Leo said, moments later as he parked the car in the driveway of the event center. “What did you forget?” I huffed incredulously, to which Leo smiled before pressing a quick, chaste kiss to my lips.“This and I also for
Allison’s POV “You look ravishing, baby,” Leo complimented as he walked into the room, a smirk plastered to his lips as he regarded my body. “Thanks, babe.” I darted him a quick smile before returning my attention to my reflection in the mirror and putting finishing touches to my makeup. I was clad in a figure-hugging lilac dress that stopped past my knees while my feet were slid in a pair of violet heels and my purse was silver. “What do you say we cancel the date and just stay home?” He suggested coming behind me to lock his arm around my waist. “We can always N*****x and chill, my love.” “I'm sorry, horndog but that isn't happening,” I said, then pressed a kiss to the corner of his lips and eased myself out of his hold to grab my purse from the dresser. “By the way, I thought we were meeting at the restaurant. What changed?” “Nothing, I just decided to come pick you and Aiden up.” He shrugged. “And I don't regret changing my mind because I've got a lovely view of your ethereal
