“I am sorry that I kept this away from you but I just wanted to see that look in your eyes,” her husband confessed and she smiled through the tears.
“I had completely forgotten about it. I like it,” she said as she looked around, seeing the decoration but above all the people that had come to celebrate this big day of hers.
“Happy birthday my love,” Sean said as he kissed her on the forehead.
Selena closed her eyes and let the intimate moment linger for a while. Her heart was racing like crazy because of joy, she was glad she didn’t pressure Vivian more about the day. This was one day she will surely never forget.
“Thank you very much,” she said as he looked at her after kissing her.
“Let’s get you inside on a couch, I wouldn’t want you falling down again from shock,” he said jokingly and she found herself laughing.
Sean took her to the couch where she sat, there w
She couldn’t help herself but laugh as she saw how far she had come and how far she was also going. She cried as she saw the day she got married. She couldn’t believe that she was smiling like that. She had never seen that video before. Who took it? At the end of the documentary, there were words appearing on the screen.“On this beautiful day a baby girl was born and brought so much joy in our lives, thank you for being born Selena. I know we met under abnormal circumstances but I don’t regret ever meeting you. Marrying you was the greatest thing I ever did. You brought so much joy in my life as well as those of my family. You taught me to love, forgive and be a normal person who lives freely and happily. Because of all that I just want to say that thank you for loving and be with a person like me. I am very sorry for everything I made you go through but I promise you that I will never let you suffer in your entir
TWO YEARS LATERWho would ever thought that one day she will find herself smiling so brightly like that as if it was just her and her family alone in the whole wide world? She couldn’t hide the joy that was emulating from her as she posed for the month’s family pictorial for the new shop that their company had opened.She was proud of being a mother, a wife but above all a woman who found everything she wanted in this life. She smiled and thanked the staff who had worked so hard for making this pictorial lively as she left the stage where her pictures were being taken.“Mommy!” her daughter Sophia ran towards her and she scooped her two-year-old daughter up carefully as she was already expecting another child.They had been pretty busy; she wanted a huge family and Sean didn’t seem to mind at all.“Are you hungry my princess?” she asked her daughter as she rested well in her arms.&l
HER ROYAL HIGHNESSCHAPTER 1Talia smiled as she looked at the noble ladies chatting and showing off their expensive and luxurious clothes and jewelries. It was the hugest event in the Kingdom of Qarth, the youngest prince was choosing his bride and all noble families had been invited.She wasn’t really from one of those but she was here as a helper, making sure that the place remains clean.Talia was nineteen years old and unlike other children of her age she wasn’t going to school. She lived with her grandmother; she never knew her parents so her grandmother was everything to her. She was sick and she could only work hard to pay her medical bills.“Stop staring,” Jane the woman who worked in the palace and the woman who had hired her said.She smiled at her and said, ‘it’s not every day that I get to see such a thing.”“Indeed, I wonder whom the prince
PROLOGUEShe couldn’t believe what she was hearing at the moment. Was this some kind of joke or what? One thing was for certain though, this man never joked. She had known him for a month and she had never seen him making a joke or smile for that matter.The other staff had given him a nickname, he was known as Mr. Cold because of the coldness he emits wherever he was. She knew that he was a good man; it was just the circumstances that turned him this way which was also one of the reasons why she developed a huge crush on the man even when she fully knew that he will never see her that way.So after all that assessment, why was he saying these words to her?“Are you joking sir?” she asked him as she staggered since she was standing on her two feet.“I am not a person who just jokes. I thought you said that you will help me when I need help. Are you turning back on your word right now?” this man was a professional, how
TWO MONTHS LATERSelena was happy she couldn’t believe that she had passed just after one try. She had been nervous about this exam ever since she started the lessons. But since she had passed and got her driver’s license now she can drive herself. He was going to be proud of her, she could see it.Her husband was the only person who brought joy to her life especially with so many eyes on her. She remembered the day she visited her parents in her small village, the shock they had on their faces when she told them she was getting married.With time she convinced them, she told them honestly that she couldn’t live without him and he was her source of joy. They have always wanted her to be happy so they finally agreed.She was raised in a small village where everyone worked in either the plantation or the factory. Her parents got married after finishing high school and they conceived her. They were childhood sweethearts and
She took a deep breath before shaking her head. She was used to this and she was not going to let anyone continue to push her around. Was it a crime that she wasn’t that good at taking that they all bullied her with harsh words like this?She finally took her four boxes of pizza and a plastic bag containing her beverages, Richard helped her with the food to get to the car. All the happiness she had was now gone thanks to Wendy. One day she was going to get back at her for causing her so much mental stress.Did she have to remind her that her husband was not into her? She was just holding on to that little hope and yet someone was trying to crush it down. They had been married for over a month and yet her husband had never laid his hand on her.They shared the same bed and yet he treated her much worse than one would treat a sister. Maybe she wasn’t attractive enough and that is why he didn’t even bother to consummate the marriage.She wi
“Welcome back sir,” Richard his driver said.“It’s good to be back. Where is she?” he asked.“She locked herself in the room and haven’t eaten anything since morning,” Richard answered. Seeing how she couldn’t even eat it meant she was distressed.“Isn’t she craving anything? I can buy it for her on the way.”“She bought her favorite pizza and gave it away,” Richard answered.That was serious then, he knew how much she loved pizza and if she gave it away then there was trouble. They arrived at the mansion and the staff was no longer there.“You can go home too Richard. I will take care of myself,” Sean said as he got out of the car.“Have a good night then,” Richard said and drove away.Sean walked into the mansion and it was quiet and peaceful. It wasn’t wise for a depressed person to be alone. What if she tries to
She hoped that she will be able to be that brave and bold and start something too.He undressed himself and she looked away, seeing him fully naked for the first time was just so difficult she couldn’t look at him in the eyes.“Look at me dear,” he urged turning her face to his.“I….,” she didn’t get to talk as he leaned in for another kiss again.She closed her eyes once more and let this man of hers take her places she never went before. She was busy concentrating on the kiss when she felt this sharp pain between her legs that she cried out. When did he do that?“It’s okay, just breathe,” he said and she did as he told her too.He poised himself over her and she could feel him inside her. He had broken through that barrier and she was no longer a virgin wife, she was excited that she forgot about all the pain and pulled her husband down for anther kiss.He understood witho
