The afternoon was beautiful. The sun was shining brightly, and the sea was a stunning shade of blue. As I stood on the beach, I noticed that it was empty, save for a few tourists playing in the distance. The Marshall family had sectioned off a part of the beach to ensure privacy, making it feel like our own private paradise.Mother found Kayden alone and pulled him aside. “How are you and Zara getting along now?” she asked, her tone full of concern.“We’re doing well,” he replied, sounding more relaxed than I expected.“Then why aren’t you taking the chance to have a kid?” she pressed, her voice filled with the typical motherly worry.Kayden sighed, “Mom, you can’t simply have a baby whenever you want. We will slowly work hard toward it.”She narrowed her eyes at him, clearly not convinced. “Why not? Are you two really working hard at it? You’re not bluffing me, right?”He looked ahead, his expression unreadable. “Of course, we’re trying. If you don’t believe what I’m telling you, the
POV KaydenAfter a while, I grew tired of swimming and decided to head back to the shore. The cold water had done its job, calming the fire that had been raging inside me. As I emerged from the water, my body still dripping wet, I could feel the sun’s warmth starting to dry me off. I wiped my face, the saltwater stinging slightly as I glanced at Zara.She was standing there, covering her mouth and looking far too excited. Her eyes were practically glowing with admiration as they scanned my body. It was as if she were trying to see through me, her gaze lingering on every inch of me like some kind of lens.Oh no…I could feel it happening again. The very thing I’d just tried to cool down was starting to rise back up, betraying me. This damned woman…She noticed my expression and asked innocently, “What’s wrong?”I sighed, trying to suppress the irritation that was quickly building up inside me. “Who said you could look at me?” I shot back, my voice tinged with frustration.Zara blinked,
As we walked, she moved toward the water again. I quickly pulled her back, “You don’t know how to swim, so don’t go in yet. We can go back to the pool at the resort so that you can learn how to swim first and then come back here to swim.”She looked impatient, but I wasn’t about to let her get hurt. I held onto her until she finally relented.That night, we rested in the villa. Zara was exhausted, falling asleep early. I watched her for a while, feeling a strange sense of peace. When I woke up the next morning, I had some work to take care of, so I left quietly, not wanting to disturb her.Later, as I was wrapping things up, I saw her walking outside with my mother. They were talking and laughing, and I couldn’t help but feel a warmth in my chest. My mother looked so relaxed, so happy, and I knew it was because of Zara.As they walked, I overheard bits of their conversation. My mother was telling Zara how proud she was of me for organizing the family gathering. I almost smiled at that
POV ZaraI was in the middle of discussing the script and filming details when my phone buzzed with a call. Seeing Kayden’s name flash on the screen, I quickly answered, trying not to let my excitement show too much.He didn’t waste any time, his tone firm as always. “Oh right, I was going to tell you that I have a banquet tonight and you’re coming along with me. You should go get ready.”I blinked in surprise. “What banquet is it?”“Just an internal charity banquet. I need to bring a female partner along.”I couldn’t help but tease him a little. “Then take your female partner along.”He replied without missing a beat, “I have a wife. Why would I need a female partner?”His words made me laugh, but inside, I felt a flutter of happiness. “Alright. Then, I’ll… go with you.”On the outside, I tried to act like I was just going along with it, but inside, I was thrilled. Attending a banquet with Kayden… I had never done that before. It felt like a whole new experience, something I’d only s
“Ahhhh!”A sharp pain ran across my lower body as he penetrated inside me in one swift motion. I pant as I try to adjust his unnaturally large member inside me but he shows me no mercy as he begins moving, his breath all ragged mirroring mine.I cry out in pain as he rips through my virginity which I’m sure is going to make me question my life choices tomorrow if I survive this. I grit my teeth as I embrace myself for the pain but he leans in and buries his head in my neck.His hands reach up to my breasts and squeeze them roughly making me wince as he sucks and nips on my neck as if looking for a spot to mark me. These actions turn the pain into somewhat pleasure making the whole process bearable.I start getting dizzy as he picks up his speed. “Ah… Please… don't... slow down… ugh!”I pants and beg the person who is on top of me to let me go. But he shuts my mouth as his lips cover mine swallowing all the words.The man thrusts in deeply making me groan in pain but the effect of the
Pov: ZaraI woke up with my head buzzing as I sat up on the bed. The soft luxurious bed sheets touching my palm were not the usual ones I washed until they aged; the light above my head was also not half-damaged.My body aches badly as if it had been just torn apart by something or someone. When I lifted my wrist, the purplish-green marks were obvious to the eye.I almost screamed when I looked down and realized that I was naked. So last night was not a dream…I covered my mouth to stop making any noise as I lifted the blanket. I scrambled to gather my clothes or rather the remaining of my clothes that were scattered on the floor.While wearing the dress I realize I had a lot of other bruises on my arms, chest, and between my legs. It was a little difficult to walk but I can manage that much. The things I did came back to my mind and from the looks of it, the person who was with me last night might as well have been a beast.Images of what happened last night flashed through my mind as
Pov: KaydenI stare at the strange woman who has skin as fair as snow, a pleasantly-small face, and a pair of big expressive eyes. Her eyelashes fluttered like a deer in headlights, but she glared at me unyieldingly.“The person I wanted to drug was someone else. It had nothing to do with you. Do you even think you’re worthy? I don’t lay my hands on just anyone. You wasted my drug. Return me the money!”Drugged the wrong person? My face tensed and I furrowed my brows as I stare at this woman in messy clothes. Half of her snow-white shoulder was exposed and the purplish-green bruises on it were all the more prominent like plum blossoms blooming on her tender, white skin.The images of the previous night flashed through his mind unannounced. Heat rose to my lower abdomen as I felt the obvious arousal through my body.I close my eyes. This damned woman… How dare she drug me? And with such a potent drug?She took advantage of my lack of focus, jumping around pushes me away, and runs out o
Pov: ZaraI reach back home and see the housekeeper announcing my presence. “Sir, Miss Zara is back.” she looks at me and says, “Sir and Madam are waiting for you inside. Miss Linda is discussing her engagement today, so your brother-in-law is here too.”I look at the housekeeper in astonishment. “Noah is here?”“Yes, he went in right before you.”I ran inside, quite pleasantly surprised only to stop right at that moment. Inside the hallway, I see Linda and Noah standing quite close to each other.Their lips were almost touching. It was a bad time to greet him. I stand rooted, my legs numb and my eyes red.When I finally managed to turn around, a slap came on my face which nearly sent me to the ground. As my cheek burned, Hana, my stepmother grabbed and pulled me into a room.After shutting the door, Hana turned around to glare at me. She pointed her accusing finger at me and said, “You shameless whore. Don’t think I didn’t see what you were up to. That is your brother-in-law. How sha
