“Really? You are around?“ Leilani smiled widely as she looked around the premises.

It was time to leave already, and she was just about to call her driver as she had not heard anything from Lorenzo yet.

“I’m almost there. You’re going to see the car now,” he said, and she nodded her head, giggling softly.

She rushed ahead to her friends, Caleb and Anna who were walking ahead of her and then the woman asked, “Your driver is not here yet?”

“He is not coming. Someone else is coming to pick me up though.”

“Who? Your friend?” Caleb asked.

“No,” she shook her head and then glanced at Anna.

“My husband,” she added.

Caleb swallowed hard and tilted his head to the side gently.

“Your… husband?”

Anna laughed gently and then cleared her throat. “I’ll get going. My driver is here.”

“See you tomorrow!” Leilani waved her hand at the woman who scurried away.

“You didn’t know I was married?” She turned back to ask Caleb.

He had his doubts.

There was no way she was married yet, he had thought.

    All through the journey back home, Leilani wouldn’t stop laughing and all Lorenzo did was look out of the window, in silence.He had thought that he loved to see the woman smile, or laugh, but at this moment, it was literally annoying.She kept picking on him and wouldn’t stop laughing just by saying nothing.“I have heard you. You’re not going to another institution. Fine, can you let me breathe?”When he had said that, the woman had only laughed harder, telling him that he had transitioned from being jealous to being pained and he could only watch again.God, this side of the woman was really not pleasing.It was not cute at all.She was bringing out the sides he didn’t know existed in him and she was still laughing at them.First, why on earth would she let another man touch her?She was married, had she forgotten.“I remember how Ariana or whatever her name was had touched your chest. I didn’t even say anything.”“It was not my chest, Lani. She touched my shoulder.”“And that man

    “Who did you say was here?”Lorenzo asked, stopping halfway as he walked to the closet in his room.“Your stepmother, Agnes,” she said again, waiting patiently for the man’s reaction.Lorenzo turned around gently, his hands leaving the button of his shirt and his brows furrowed together.“Why? What did she do to you?” He covered the space between them and grabbed her arm gently.“Nothing, come on,” she said and snatched her arm from his grip gently.“Tell me the truth, Lani,” he said again and then picked up her arm.“She didn’t hurt me. She didn’t do anything. She was just here.”“She must have been here for a reason, Leilani.” He breathed out lazily.“I have warned the securities to never let her in. God, I am going to—”“Chill, big guy. I said she could enter when I was asked. I didn’t know there was such an order, I am sorry.”“You don’t have to be. Did she touch you?”“Yes.”He growled in an instant and she laughed, “Your stepmother hugged me!”“Stop calling her that, and wait, w

    “Mrs. Lorenzo Byers!”Anna exclaimed, sneaking up to her from behind.“Don’t do that, please,”Leilani rolled her eyes.“Don’t do what?” She chuckled, settling beside her.“Don’t call me that. My name is Leilani.”“Are you denying that name too? I thought you were married.”“Of course, I am not denying it. But, would it not be better if you called my name?”“No. I will not stop calling you Mrs. Byers.”“Why? At this point, everyone will know my marital status.”“Are you hiding it?”“Of course, no.”“Ooooh, you bad girl. You wanna flirt for a while before you run back to your husband’s arm?” She asked, tickling her which caused the woman to laugh out loud.“Jesus, no! Stop it, Anna!” She laughed uncontrollably.“Tell me the truth. I can keep a secret. I’m not gonna tell him. You want me to link you up with a man?”“Don’t be naughty, I have a husband,” she rolled her eyes and Anna laughed.“Do you, really, baby girl?” She asked, patting her butt like she was patting a baby.“Can you sto

    “He said he is going to take a while before he arrives and that I can go ahead to have dinner without him,” she informed Martha as she entered the dining room.“Oh, really? Do you want me to dish your food then?”“No, no. I’m not very hungry at the moment,” she answered.Wondering where the man could have gone to that he had not returned home even though it was past 8, she breathed out and then unlocked her phone.Her sister-in-law, Mia’s message came in at the moment, and she smiled before she opened the message.“Do you have any tips on how to kidnap and rape a man?”“What?!” Leilani burst into laughter as the message read and then stood up.She placed a call to the woman immediately, laughing.“I knew you were going to call!” Mia grunted and she could imagine the lady rolling her eyes rather dramatically.“Why are you asking me for such tips?”“Because I need to kidnap Jason, and sleep with him forcefully.”“God, are you still on his matter?”“Of course! He has threatened to file a

    Lorenzo got back from his outing and wheeled into the living room, he looked around and then asked Martha who walked towards him.“Has she gone to sleep?”“Your wife? She has been out there for the past hour.”“Out where?”“It’s on the premises, calm down. She is with Ella and John.”“Leilani?”“Yes. I went to confirm, and they are together.”“And it’s been an hour?” He asked again.“Yes.”“Martha, are they drinking?” He asked and then the woman chuckled, raising her brows.“You bet.”“God,” he shook his head and then wheeled back outside, the woman trailing closely behind him.——“Is that… her?”He stuttered as he continued wheeling while he stared at the woman who was… dancing.Leilani was dancing.He did not even need to reach there fully before he knew that she was drunk.And not a little. Madly.“Really?” He groaned as he got to where the couple sat, clapping for his wife.“Boss,” they chorused and then stood up.“You gave her alcohol?” He frowned.He was not offended, they could

    Arriving in the room and dropping her on the bed, the woman curled around swiftly and then wrapped her legs around his waist.“What are you doing?”“Anything to see your face better, Hubby.”He relaxed a little, leaned closer to her, and then shook his head.“Do you know what I cannot wait for?”“What?” She drawled.“The walk of shame and the look of shame that you will have on you for the rest of the week.”“Me?” She moaned while she stared at him through thin eyes, smiling.“Of course, and I am here for it all.”“Are you here for me too?”“Of course, Lani,” he said softly and then moved the strands of hair that fell on her face.“You are so handsome…” she yawned at his face and he shook his head.“You reek of alcohol, Jesus.”“Do you want to kiss me?”He raised his brows at her question and then shook his head.“You are being wild. Is it the alcohol or have you always had it in you?”“Hubby, trust me, I am wilder than you know,” she wriggled underneath him gently and then struggled

    She stirred in her sleep, groaning and whining like she was in massive pain.Her hands found their way to her head and she pulled the bun of her hair gently before she scratched her head.Leilani hissed as the ray of sunlight that had crept into the room through the curtain settled on her face as if she had asked for it.“Fuck,” she groaned again and then pulled the bun of her hair as the throbbing headache hit her again.“Fuck, what’s going on with me?” She cleared her throat, and without opening her eyes, she sat upright, and then stretched lazily, yawing at the same time.Finally, she stood up from the bed and prepared to move to the window to close it shut, she became conscious of what she was wearing and then bent down instantly like there were some pairs of eyes in the room, looking at her.“What is this?!” She whispered energetically and then looked around again.This was definitely not her shirt.She thought as she stood up.Not only was it overly high for her, but her hands w

    Twenty minutes later, Leilani was still sitting on the floor of the room, talking to herself in the most crazy way like she had indeed gone insane.“There is no way all of this is real!”“Wait. I kissed him?!”“HUBBY?!”“God, what have I done to myself!”She whimpered and covered her face again.Finally, a knock came on the door and she sprang up.It was Lorenzo, and she knew he could come in if he wanted to.That was why he was giving her cold shoulders this morning and it was justified!She had puked on the floor, in front of him, and she knew he must have cleaned it up himself.God, she was not feeling embarrassed by the fact that he had helped her undress and worn something else for her, but the embarrassment she was feeling by the drama she had performed could swallow her whole if care was not taken.“Let’s have breakfast, Lani…” the man said gently.She stood up and then breathed out.“I’m c—coming, I’m inside the bathroom!” She yelled and regretted it instantly.Bathroom?Oh, s

    “No, no, no, this is not possible. This cannot be possible,” she shook her head, taking multiple steps back.“Where is she going?” Mia rushed over to her and took her hands in hers.“What is wrong?”“I can’t… I can’t take this. I can’t… no, no,” she sniffed, yanked her hand gently from Mia’s, and then wiped her tears with the back of her hand.“This is too much. I can’t…” “You know what, guys,” Martha clasped her hands together.“Let’s leave the two of them for a while. We will return to celebrate with them,” she ushered them out and then turned to leave too.After they were out of sight, with the door closed, Lorenzo stood up from where he sat, covered the space between them and then pulled her into a hug without saying anything.“I know this is going to overwhelm you. I know it does,” he said, as he patted her back.“Lorenzo, you can’t do this… again. No, please.”“Why?” He bore his eyes on her as he broke the hug.“I don’t… I don’t deserve this.”“How? In what way? Talk to me.”“

    “I can't find Lorenzo in the room. Did he go somewhere?” Leilani asked Martha as she descended the stairs.“Enzo? I think he’s somewhere in the perimeter. Do you wanna go to him?”“Yes. Could you tell me where he is?”It’s been three days since she resumed her class and so far, it was better and together with Anna, they had been staying back at the academy for two more hours just to practice as the competition was fast approaching.If it was up to Anna, she really doesn’t need to be staying back as she could do all the practice that she needed at her space. Unlike her.“Let me take you to him,” Martha stood from where she sat and took her hand in hers.“You do not need to bother yourself, Martha. Just tell me where he is.”“Come with me, really. We could have a little chit-chat while we walk also, don’t you think?”She nodded her head and chuckled gently, “I agree.”Together, they exited the living room and then started to walk slowly around the house.“How has it been?

    Mia glanced at their grip that was both on the bottle of apple cider, looked up at the man again, and then snatched it from him.“Thank you,” she raised the bottle gently, and then dropped it in the basket in her hand.She turned around and moved away from him to continue with her shopping, but then, she felt his movement behind her.“Mia…”She ignored it and kept trailing her fingers on the goods on the rack.“It has been… a while.”“What?” She turned around swiftly and beaded her brows.“I mean…” he swallowed and smiled.“I haven’t seen you in a while.”She looked at him from head to toe, chuckled dryly, and then shook her head. “Oh, please.”With that, she walked away from where he was and moved fully to another compartment.Jason stood still in his position for almost a full minute before he exhaled and shook his head.He had just been disappointed.He had expected that the woman would flash him her usual wide smile and then call his name the way she used to.But, he was wrong.Sh

    “Setting it up? A new workspace?” She raised her brows.“She needs somewhere to practice and paint. I know she is not gonna ask after what happened to the previous one, but it needs to be done.”“Aww, brother,” she sniffed.“You’re gonna keep it a secret from her till it’s ready. Can I trust you on that?”“Of course! I would be so glad to be part of this with you.”“Good. Since you’re in on this too, all you have to do is meet with Martha. I have talked to her too so you both should get started.”“Okay. And… Thank you for this.”“Okay.”“I really appreciate this, Enzo. You have no idea how much…”“Can we leave the cringe part and get back to business, please?”“Ah, you’re a killer joy!” She exclaimed and then he laughed out unconsciously.===Leilani kept walking awkwardly till she arrived at her space, settled on it, and then buried her head on her table.They wouldn’t stop looking at her with pity in their eyes and that was one of the things she hated the most.Anna was not around y

    “Oh, come on. It’s been two weeks already,” Leilani shook her head gently and groaned.“You’re not completely healed,” he said.She was sitting on the bed, and he knelt behind her, her bare back facing him.Leilani tightened her grip on the blanket that she used to cover her chest while the man applied the ointment to her wound.This had been their normal routine every morning and night since they had removed the bandage on the wound.At first, Leilani had insisted that Mia would be doing it for her but the man had disagreed, telling her that it would seem weird if she did that for her while she had him around.Still, she had tried to prove stubborn before she eventually agreed that he did it for her.And so far, it was okay.It was as if that simple ritual was making them closer as the two of them always had something to talk about while he applied the ointment and massaged the area of the wound.“I truly believe this is gonna heal so fast and won’t leave a scar,” he smiled softly, s

    “Hi, guys! I'm home!”Mia exclaimed as she entered the living room, her handbag hanging loosely on her shoulder.Leilani sprang up from where she sat beside Lorenzo and then gasped.“Sister in law!”“She truly came,” Lorenzo mumbled under his breath and then pulled his laptop closer to himself.The two women hugged so tightly like their life depended on it and after a while, Leilani pulled back and grinned.“You really came!”“Told ya!” They both moved to the side as the men entered with her boxes.“Greetings to you too, brother,” she moved over to Lorenzo.Lorenzo glanced at her, rolled his eyes, and then returned his attention to his laptop.“I know you’re not pleased that I am here, but let me tell you two something.”“What?” Leilani raised her brows.“With me here, you don’t need to visit any marriage counselor or whatever. I am here to give advice and my listening ears whenever you need.”“Since when have we announced to you that we need an adviser?” Lorenzo hissed.“You might n

    “W… what is this? What are you doing?”Agnes widened her eyes as she ran down the stairs after her daughter.“What do you mean?”“Where are you going?”She asked.The men who were in the living room preparing to leave the house stopped on their track and then turned to look at the women.“What is going on?” Aaron asked.“I am moving out,” she announced.They all fell silent for a while and then Agnes chuckled dryly.“Is this a joke?”“Oh, come on. Does this look like a joke?”Agnes glanced at the two big bags that the lady had dropped outside.“Mia?”Mia clasped her hands together and then gasped, “I still have more bags up there!”She turned around swiftly and they all watched as she ascended the stairs.“Who knew about this?” Agnes looked around.Shane raised his hands and Arthur shook his head. “No one?” Aaron asked.“Where is she moving to?” Agnes asked again.“I guess we’ll have to ask her,” Arthur nodded his head at the lady who struggled down the stairs with two big bags again.

    “Who do you say is moving in with us?”Leilani choked on the smoothie she was drinking and then raised her head.“Take it easy,” he sighed, moved over to her, and dabbed the corner of her mouth with the handkerchief.Frowning gently at him, she pushed his hand away gently and then asked again.“Mia is truly moving in?”“I hadn’t even agreed before she ended the call, thanking me. But I think she is going to move in. We can just tell her…”“Yippee!” Leilani cut him short with an exclamation and stood up.“You are not excited, are you?” he beaded his brows.“Should I not be?”“No, you should not be. I was hoping that you would be opposed to it and then I can just tell her that, ‘no, my wife is not in support of this,” he demonstrated, shaking his head.“Why would you want to use me to lie like that?”“Lie? Come on. Let's just tell her that.”“No! Let her move in. at least, i can finally stop sleeping in your room and stay with her instead.”After she said that, she dropped the straw in

    Shane raised his brows as the door to his room pushed open and Arthur barged in.Sitting on the couch, he leaned in, crossed his legs, and then tilted his head.“Ah, you have finally come to see me.”“Why? Have you been expecting me?” Arthur walked fully into the room.“I know you, Arthur. I know when you know something. Or, when you have something to say.”“Oh…” Arthur nodded his head and then folded his arms tightly across his chest.“Spill.”“Why don’t you start?”“Why should I? You came in here because you have something to say to me, is that not it?”“Regardless, I would like you to speak first,” Arthur shook his head.“Welcome to the staring competition, then.”“Tch, you asshole,” Arthur smacked his tongue.“What?”He covered the space between them and without saying another word, he pulled Shane up with his collar and then shoved him to the side.“Why?!”“Do you know what kind of pickle you put in?” He pointed his index finger at him.“Me? Pickle? Speak straight, brother,” he f
