LOIS'S POV
The cool breeze fell on my face, through the open window, as Oliver drove in high speed. I was happy, so happy, genuinely happy at last. I got the happily ever after I wanted. No misunderstandings, or regrets.
I looked at Oliver, who seemed so calm as he drove at such a speed.
"Babe"
"Yes, my Love"
"I love you" He put his right hand on my laps, and used the left hand to control the steering.
"I love you moooore" I smiled, put my hand on top of his, and gave a light squeeze. I could see the beach far ahead, and then in few seconds, we came to a stop.
"The Beach?"
"Yes the beach" he replied, as he went behind to open the car booth.
"You said we were going for a ride"
"Yeah, we did go for a ride. Didn't say were we'd go after that" He winked.
He brought out food, fruits and drinks, all packaged in a basket. I went over to help him with some of the stuff in the car booth.

LOIS' POV. Someone wake me up, because I got to be dreaming. I just heard the biggest joke of my life. I'm getting married. And then, they threw the BOMB. I am getting married to OLIVER. "Oliver Grant? Mom did you just say Oliver Grant!!?" I asked, completely bewildered. "Ye...sss baby"she replied unsure "Hahahaha. You're joking right?" "No I'm not" she said, looked guilty. "Dad is this true?....... Why am I even asking? It's not true. Of course it's not. It can't be." I smiledhopefully, though I had a feeling that this was more serious than I thought. "Yes princess, It's true" Dad replied, quite unperturbed. His demeanor sent chills down my spine. "What's going on Dad? I'm really finding it difficult to understand things here" I was already close to tears, not because I thought they were serious, but because of the fear of them being serious. They would not do such a thing to me. "My princes
LOIS' POVI was so glad, when we alighted the car. Derrick and Harrison didn't stop teasing me about my dilemma.Atleast I could have some fresh air now. My brothers could be a handfull.Jake wasn't able to make it, because he had a business dinner with a client today. Mum and Dad were so relieved when I returned home. Mum was already contemplating calling off the wedding, Until I told them my decision.Yeah, I accepted the damn wedding. Dad and Mum were really relieved and happy. Deep down I knew that was the best decision I made. I had to fulfill my Grandparents' wish and make my parents happy. We were family by the way, withor without this marriage pact.We walked towards the very familiar garden. It's been a long while
Lois povIt had been two days since the dinner at the Grant's mansion, and I suppose I heard Oliver say 'please be there by 3:00pm', over the phone when we spoke yesterday.We were to meet at Belle for the ring shopping, as agreed two days ago over dinner. But it seems Oliver would take pleasure in wasting my time today.I was already seated on one of the chairs at Belle's reception. One thing that I loved about shopping there. A place to sit and relax. For God's sake it's already 3:25pm, and he is not here yet.So much for promptness!I subconsciously rolled my eyes.Iditched Dr Reynolds at the theater and left him to carry out the operation on the young girl with hynea, alone with the two new interns. So bad of me, and now Oliver is wasting my precious time."I'm not usually so late" I looked up, of course it was Oliver. I gave him a needle piercing look. "I'm sorry, ple
OLIVER'S POVI was standing at the altar, directly opposite the officiating priest. I had been standing for close to 45 minutes, and the bride was not forthcoming.Different imaginations played through my mind. I just hoped what I was thinking wasn't the case. She couldn't have ditched me at the altar.No no no.... It's just 45 minutes. Be calm Oliver. She wouldn't do that. She wouldn't drag our families' name to the mud. I tried so hard convincing myself.*News headline*Popular Billionaire Bachelor Oliver Grants, jilted at the altar.......No no no, I would be totally and completely done for. I definitely wouldn't hear the end of it from Eva. I would be the
Lois's pov "At this point, I really wish I could just say it out loud and be like 'Yes I do! Of course I doooo! Oliver I dooo!!' My thoughts were interrupted when I heard sounds of laughter. What happened? Why was everyone laughing. I opened my eyes which I didn't notice were closed until now. Oliver's face was something else as he was trying his best not to laugh and I really didn't think his endurance could last longer, but why on earth was everyone laughing? It seemed like they were all laughing at me because everyone was looking at me while laughing. I was the center of amusement but what happened? Oh my God. It just dawned on me. Did I just shout it out loud? I wasn't just thinking about saying an 'I do', I was actually thinking out loud. Lawd! I have never been more embarrassed in my life. I looked towards the congregation and Aunt Ashley winked at me. JESUS!! I forced a shy smile at her. Harrieth came forward with the wedding ba
LOIS' POV I would be a big liar if I said I wasn't tired at the moment. We were all sitted at a large table at the wedding reception. Mom and Aunt Ashley next to me by my right hand and left hand side respectively, while Oliver sat directly opposite me. After the kiss at the church, he's been oddly quiet, not that he was talkactive on a normal day. I frowned my face due to the ache I felt on my ankles. My foot were as sore as hell. How did I ever come across this Loboutins? God!!! "Hey Lois, are you alright?" Aunt Ashley asked."Yeah I'm fine. It's just that my ankles ache alot" "Oh? Sorry, You must be so stressed out" she said sympathetically. I quickly caught a look on Harrieth's face that disappeared almost immediately. Was that a look of hurt I jus
Oliver's POV My heart beat accelerated when I laid my eyes on Eva. I really didn't want to see her, but thanks to Lois who got carried away in her victory and invited Eva to the wedding. Sincerely, I was still hurt from what Eva did. I was already so into her and all she could was to cheat on me with none other than Nathan Black. I really detested that guy. He took everything I ever wanted. He's the reason behind this whole mess. Because of him, I lost all I wanted, which made me start dating Eva for the wrong reasons. Along the line, I fell for Eva. She was just so similar to what I wanted, which was until she cheated on me with Nathan. I really did feel bad for dating her out of spite, anger and jealousy. But then I began to compare her to what I ac
LOIS' POV. It's been two weeks since the incident, two weeks since my only companion in this big mansion has been Becca and her daughterPaige, two weeks since I slapped Oliver. I really didn't mean to slap him, but I just couldn't contain my anger. It was the second time I slapped him in just a span of 24 hours. I could still recall the misunderstanding we had. I was given a leave period at work for our wedding and I was seriously bored there in the big mansion all alone because Oliver had already left for work, not like I would have had a chit chat with him after our quarrel the previous night tho. I decided to have a sight view of the mansion. I met Jason the Gardener who took it upon himself to show me around. He was a very good looking guy around th

Warning: mature content in this chapterOLIVER'S POVI wasn't sure Lois was ready for this, I was willing to wait though. I didn't want her feeling forced or obligated to do this. Once I got enough assurance from her, I wasted no time in locking my lips with hers."You are all mine" I growled in between kisses"Yes, I'm all yours. Take all of me my love" She replied. Her love. She called me her love. I think that was the most beautiful moment of my life. I felt on top of the world. Not just that, but lucky to have a woman like Lois, Love me.I thoroughly kissed her mouth as my hand moved under her blouse and caressed her warm naked skin. My efforts fueled up as I heard her moan my name so passionately. That was more than enough encouragement for me.
LOIS' POV I was undoubtedly speechless. What was Oliver saying? What did he mean when he said he had always loved me? I was emotionally drained, and really wouldn't appreciate him toiling with my mind. "Oliver, what are you saying?" "I have a confession to make" He replied looking so serious, he was certainly not joking. He pulled me towards the bed, and asked me to seat. He squatted before me, making me look down to his face. "Oliver what's going on?" I asked "I have always had feelings for you Lois. From the start, it has always been you and nobody else. I know you wouldn't believe me, but trust me, I'm being sincere. I never knew how to approach you and tell you without being embarrassed or scared of your rejection" "Whhat?" I asked c
Oliver's PovI was beyond shocked when I walked down from my room to the sitting room downstairs, after hearing the commotion, only to see Eva. I hoped she hadn't come to mess things up for me. I didn't need this kind of confusion in my life. Especially not now.I kept hoping until Eva said it. I stood rooted in my ground, as I looked towards the only person, whose opinion about me mattered the most at the moment. There was a long silence in the room. It was as if everyone was trying to let what Eva said, sink in.After a while, Lois looked like she was finally coming to terms with her newly gained information. I had to explain it all to her. It wasn't intentional, I was fucking drugged and didn't know what happened next. I only found myself in bed with Eva later that night."Babe" I called in the lowest voice possible. She looked at me, like she was trying t
LOIS' POVI woke up optimistic today, I was in a very light mood. It was finally a full house, everyone packed in yesterday. Oliver showed everyone to their rooms and the men made themselves comfortable in the boys quarters.Truth be told, I was still suprised. I couldn't believe we were in a situation like this, I thought of how much things had changed in my life within a short while. Being part of a Mafian family was a lot to digest, but I was trying my best.I joined Paige and her mum, to set the dinning table for breakfast. I hummed happily as we worked together, while Paige used the opportunity to catch up on different stuff. I thought of Oliver and a smile curled up my face. He was fast becoming the center of my world, my happiness.I had made up my mind, I was gonna tell him that I had fallen in love with him today. Wow!! I and Oliver had come this far, and I

OLIVER'S POVIt had been a long long journey. A total of 11 hours, fifteen minutes to get to America from Italy. We got to the guest house by 1 in the morning. As we walked into the reception, Laura the all time receptionist, did the favour of allocating rooms to everyone."Mr Grants" she smiled at me, your usual suite is ready, just call if you need anything."Yes we will be needing something" Lois cut in."Excuse me?" Laura replied, rather haughtily. I was about to talk, but Lois stepped on my toes, sending a silent message that she could handle the situation."I need a Rose water bath, please make it available soonest" Lois replied politely."Okay, that would be prepared in your room, and you are?"
THIRD PERSON'S POVI immediately left miss Lois when he came over. I quickly walked in to the mansion and made my way to the kitchen. I tried my hardest to always avoid him. I was confused. Was I supposed to remain angry and bitter towards him because he was the cause of Zac's death? But on the other hand, Zac willingly gave his life for him.Zac adored him to that extent. He gave up his life for Luca, not considering the fact that he was leaving me behind and alone. I was supposed to be angry at Zac too, but I couldn't. He gave me a reason to live life again. I had nothing!My parents were murdered, and I was just a lucky girl, who happened to survive after being raped and seeing her parents brutally killed by her rapist afterwards. I was broken, half dead on the streets, when a guardian angel in form of a man came to my rescue.Zac was my savior. He rescued me from the possible hazards of the street, he s
Oliver's PovI had to leave quite early this morning due to some issues I had to take care of. Apparently Marco was biting more than he could chew. I had to look for a way to handle Eva fast, before things got out of hand.I think it was just the right time to let Lois know the whole truth. Yes, there were still skeletons in my closet sadly enough. I couldn't help but think how things would have turned out much differently, had I confronted my demons head on.I only had two options.Tell Lois the truth, or loose her when she finds out. And I knew it wouldn't be long until she did. I was already deep in, I had fallen in love with her again. She always had my heart all along. Somethings never change, and I learned this the hard way.All the high school bullying, the emotional bruises I tried giving to her, when I found out Nathan Black had been making pa
