Bryce was seated at the restaurant with a coffee in one hand as he stared outside the window. He had just finished a meeting with his staff and decided to sip on his coffee as he waited out here for someone. Part of the reason why he hasn't returned back home was because he wanted Hera to enjoy her little freedom before he arrives.With a deep contented sigh, his mind rolled out the events that had happened the past week. So far, Hera has been discharged from the hospital and was given intensive care at home. Most of the time, they had ended up arguing over a couple of things like her personal space which was no longer hers anymore.He had been watching her like a hawk watching over its hatchling. He had been overly protective of her but with good intentions too. Hera on the other hand believes that he was doting on her too much and wanted to do some things on her own but he wouldn't allow it. God forbids he does. There's absolutely no way in hell that he'd do that. He never lets her
"What do you think of this?" Bryce asked Max who was busily flipping through the papers on his desk as if his life depended on it. He had noticed that his best friend has been incredibly busy these past few weeks with work and business travels that he couldn't help but pity him. Regardless of his whore side, Max had always been a hard worker and takes his job seriously. "Do you think that Hera will like it?"Max looked at him wearily but his face is quickly replaced with shock, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets when he saw what Bryce was trying to show him. It was a goddamn engagement ring in a beautiful jewelry box. Max couldn't believe it. "Y-You want to propose to Hera? You want to get married?"Bryce smiled cheerfully when he noticed that he had gotten Max's full attention. "Yeah. I've spoken to the sisters at the convent and I've made my intentions known to them. They gave me their blessings too.""This is a huge step Bryce, even for you." Max reminded him, standing up
"Yes please make sure that everything goes according to plan and smoothly tomorrow night. Don't forget to keep me updated on everything. Okay bye." Bryce disconnected the call as soon as he came out of Hera's ward. He had accompanied her and Mariam to the hospital for her checkup and while they were at it, he had excused himself to take a call in regards to Hera's birthday surprise. So far, he was utterly and totally stressed but it was worth it.With a smile on his face, he dipped his hands into his pockets to reveal the small box. For some reason, he has been carrying it everywhere not wanting to put it down even for a second. He opened the box and stared at the beautiful engagement ring resting there. He carressed the ring with his finger as he imagined how beautiful it would look on Hera's hands before putting it back into his pocket.He was trying his very possible best to have everything under control before tomorrow evening so that he would be fully prepared to celebrate Hera's
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" Hera snapped her eyes open the next morning to see Mariam standing there by the side of the bed as she stared at her with a face full of smiles. She forced herself up with a smile to hug her. Feeling like she was forgetting something, she turned to look at bed in hopes of finding him asleep but he wasn't there.There wasn't a sign of him. Mariam wouldn't have walked into the room if he was there so where could he have gone without telling her? He always informed her before going anywhere so she was a little surprised that he wasn't here to wish her a happy birthday. He had promised that he would spend the day with her. Did he lie to her?"Ma'am, did Bryce leave for work already?" She asked innocently. "He promised that he'd be at home today.""I'm so sorry Hera but Bryce got an urgent call from work so he had to leave quickly." Mariam informed her. "He wanted to tell you but you were sound asleep and he didn't want to wake you up. He felt really bad and that's why he a
NINE MONTHS LATER....Hera sat up on the bed after her long rest. She and Bryce had both decided to officially tie the knot after her delivery which was due anytime soon. She stared at the ring on her finger and the images from that night flooded her memories. She could clearly remember that day as though it were yesterday. Bryce had gotten down on one knee and promised to marry and love her forever.She guessed that's all there was on marriage and soon after the baby is delivered, they will be joined together as man and wife. She had been feeling down that she would bring a baby into this world without going about it the right way but he had assured her that her fears were valid and had decided to do it right way. The godly way. The thought of that day approaching had her grinning from ear to ear.Christina and the sisters had paid her a visit as well during the latter stages of her pregnancy. Christina was very ecstatic about being an aunt. She couldn't wait for the day she gave bir
"Christina, are you fully packed yet?" Sister Martha called out to her from outside her bedroom as she placed the last pile of clothes into her box and zipped it shut. She had made sure to pack her things for today's journey since last night so how come she's still struggling to finish last minute? What else was she forgetting?"Just five more minutes sister Martha. I'll be down in a bit." She answered back as she tidied up her room in a hurry, putting the rest of her stuffs away from the bed and stashing them up nicely inside the closet.Today was finally the day. She had waited a whole year for this and now, it was finally happening. She was moving to the big city at long last. She had passed her papers and a few weeks back, she had been accepted into the college of her choice. Everything was finally falling into place thanks to Bryce's help.She made to pick up her bags when a familiar portrait caught her attention. Slowly, she walked over to her dresser and picked up the framed eng
Christina's plane touched down at the airport hours later. After clearance and getting her luggage, she made her way past security towards the arrival section. The sisters at the convent had told her that she'd be picked up at the airport upon arrival.She looked around the airport, waiting and hoping patiently that she doesn't run into that man and that she leaves before they both spot or come in contact with each other again. She had caught him having sex against her will. Who knows what he might do to her if he finds out that she was still here. She had already rejected his advances once and he might think that she was onto him.God! She just wanted to get out of here fast and call it a day."Hey kiddo!" Someone called out to her and she darted her eyes towards the direction of the voice that waved at her. A wide grin broke out on her face as she rushed into his arms, hugging him tightly. It was Bryce."Big brother!" She squealed in delight. She wasn't expecting him to pick her up
"Hey man." Bryce's voice filtered from behind her as he came to greet Max at the door and Christina shifted from the door to the side when they shook hands and made her way back to the dinner table without uttering another word. What could she possibly say anyways?That his friend was the one who had assaulted her at the airport. He had made rude and nasty advances at her? Maybe she should just go ahead and tell Bryce that his friend continuously made a pass at her and offered himself up for tasting if she was interested in joining him on his bed. That would be quite a story to share with them over dinner wouldn't it?Somehow, She couldn't stop thinking about how Bryce was friends with the type of man and the fact that her sister calls him family. Does Hera know about him or was she oblivious to the truth? The more she gave it some thought, the more anxious it made her."Christina are you okay?" Hera had asked when she noticed how quiet she had become. Usually, she would've been askin
Cherry swallowed hard at Max's firm dick. Her jaw almost dropping to the floor. She had seen him naked countless times, a whole lot of time but it still doesn't make it any less scarier than before. He was huge and loaded. He scared her."You have that look on your face every time you see me naked. I'm beginning to think that you're scared of me. Should I be worried?" His lips curled up in a sinister smile. She looked at him and for a split second, he saw the terror that flashed through her eyes but it went as quickly as it came. It somehow made him proud that he was able to make her react this way."I am not scared of you. I'm simply shocked that's all." She mumbled to herself."Right." Max answered with a nod. "Well, if tonight will be too much for you to handle then you can go—""No." Cherry protested almost immediately forcing him to look at her. Go? She wouldn't dare even if he begged her to. She loved this man and she was willing to do anything for him. She was willing to go the
Max arrived at his hotel after leaving Bryce's house. He wasn't exactly sure why he was upset with what that Christina lady had said to him but he just couldn't bring himself to take it all in.So what if he said all those things? It's not exactly his fault that she was from a convent now was it? He had no clue that she was Hera's sister and it's not like he hasn't said those kinds of things to a woman before. They love it when he says something like that and it was her fault for not getting it and making it seem like he was the villain who had made the worst mistake in history.Pushing his hair backwards, Max alighted his car and treaded towards the reception of his hotel."Welcome back, Boss." His receptionist, Nora greeted him with a curt bow of her head. "How was your trip? Was it better than you anticipated?""It was alright." Max wasn't in a mood to say more so he just left his answer as simple as it should be. "Is the guest house ready for me?" He asked and she nodded with a pl
"Is everything okay?" Hera asked Christina worriedly as they cleared up the table together after dinner. Bryce was somewhere around the house with Max and Christina had offered to help Hera out even though Hera had told her not to worry about it."You've been awfully quiet ever since we sat down for dinner and it's crazy because you are never quiet Christina. You love to chat and talk about a lot of things. Are you okay? Is something bothering you?" Hera pressed on while Christina only managed a smile."Of course, sis. Everything is okay." She beamed in reply. "I just wasn't feeling chatty during dinner and besides, you used to scold me whenever i talk during meals so what changed so suddenly?""I know." Hera breathed out. "I just want you to feel comfortable here so i don't mind if you're chatty. I know that it wasn't easy coming all the way here and i just want you to settle in nicely.""I am settling in nicely." Christina assured her sister. She definitely wasn't moody because of di
Max stared down at the little woman that looked at him with a cold expression, standing in front of him. What are the odds that the woman he had encountered today at the airport would end up being his best friend's sister in-law. For the life in him, this wasn't exactly how he had mapped out his evening to go.But can you blame him? Lots of women had played out the supposed 'bumping into him' trick just to get him to notice them so how could've he have known that she was genuinely telling the truth about not wanting anything from him?Women always wanted something from him and they went through great lengths to get it as well. It's a well known fact at this point. If he wasn't filling their cunt with his dick and making them scream out his name at the top of their voices then he was satisfying them in other necessary areas.They always wanted him and it's not like he was complaining about it. It's always a win-win situation for both parties at the end of the day which was why he had a
