Pamela's p.o.v"I'm not following," I said as I shook my head."Girl, do you remember the document you signed on your birthday?" She asked.Right. I did sign a document that evening."Yes," I said and she nodded."And you know how I helped your mom because she was drunk?" Mia asked. I did ask her to take care of my mom."Oh my god you got her to sign the documents and transferred ownership to her!" I whispered.I'd never been more grateful in my life. This meant that Royal couldn't have my company because I never gave it to him to begin with! My signature on his documents were useless."Yep" Mia said and I cupped her cheeks and stared into her eyes. Tears welled up in mine."I am literally forever indebted to you, girl. I owe you my life," I said."Woah, don't be so dramatic!" She smiled and I wrapped her in a tight hug."Too tight, I can't breathe" Mia choked and I let her go."Sorry" I apologised. "I don't think you realise that you saved an entire company's ass, you might as well
Royal's p.o.vPamela had the guts to play a Markinson. She hadn't realised who I was and what I was capable of doing yet. What she needed was a reminder.I didn't know why I hadn't thought to look at those designs before that day. Maybe because I trusted her. I'd been a fool.Not only did I display the worst possible designs in the entire world and got humiliated for it, I had lost some of my biggest partnerships. None of them were responding to my calls so I decided I'd let the heat die down and reach out to them later with my own original designs. I was a genius, there was no way they would turn me down.I planned to sell Pamela's company to a friend of mine. That was only the beginning of what I was going to do to her and it was all going according to plan until my lawyer called me at five fucking am in the morning."Max, it better be good" I said, half asleep."Uh…it's quite bad Royal" He said and I immediately frowned."What is?" I inquired."The company, it doesn't belong to yo
Charles' p.o.vI launched my designs the day after Royal's launch party like I always planned to do and that was all because of Pamela. I wouldn't say I owed her anything because she literally caused the fucking mess but I was grateful that she didn't give Royal my designs. I guessed she did care about me after all but that didn't mean that I had forgotten what she'd done.Neither Royal nor her were invited and I wanted it to be that way. It was aggravating enough that three of us were at his launch. Thinking of both of them together always made me lose my patience.All the plans I had for her birthday were cancelled and I promised myself I wouldn't call her at all. I needed time and space to sort out the thoughts in my head that were drawing me towards her.Reflecting on that night, I hadn't been more confused in my entire life. I thought that I'd be leaving the launch enraged and cursing Pamela but the opposite happened. I left calm and collected and all my thoughts revolved around h
Pamela's p.o.vMia called me two hours after I'd texted her and I didn't pick up on the first ring because I didn't have my phone with me."Pamela?" She called. I could hear how scared she was in her voice."I'm here" I replied and she sighed."Don't fucking do that! You literally just sent me the scariest text ever then I call you and you don't answer" She yelled and I chuckled.It warmed my heart that she was worried about me. I was worried as well, I'd been anxious and paranoid since five am with no shut eye."I'm so sorry" I apologised as I sat on the couch."What are we going to do about this?" She asked. "We should involve the police" She said."But we don't have evidence," I said."Girl, the fact that he wanted to defraud you is enough evidence that he is a bad person, that and his threats are enough" She pointed out."Have you told Charles about it?" She asked."Not yet" I said."Pamela, for your information I will not get murdered-""Relax Mia, no one is getting murdered" I s
Pamela's p.o.vThe door opened and Royal walked inside in a blue suit that looked good on him. I probably shouldn't care about how good he looked in a time like that. I watched him closely.Royal smiled as he put his hands in his pocket."You're up" Royal said and I scrunched my face."And you're insane," I snapped. He chuckled and bit his lip."Feisty" He said as he carried the rocking chair from the corner and placed it in front of me.Royal sat down and crossed his legs then smirked at me as he rocked back and forth."You're having a fucking good time aren't you?" I asked, nodding and smiling at him.I couldn't believe this was the guy that I was falling for. Charles would never do this to me."What the fuck is this, Royal? First you kidnap me then you cuff me to a fucking bed in a cabin in the middle of freaking nowhere!" I screamed as tears welled up in my eyes."This doesn't call for screaming, Pamela, you're only going to wear yourself out" He said calmly and I clenched my jaw.
Charles' p.o.vI arrived at the police station and went in to see the chief of police who was a friend of mine.An officer led me to his office."Mr. Adkins, you have a visitor" My arrival was announced and I walked in to see Nate Adkins."Charles Murray, long time no see" He grinned as we shook hands. "Why do you look like shit? You lose a Ferrari?" Nate joked."Have a seat" He gestured and I shook my head."This isn't the time to sit Nate, my girlfriend, Pamela Riles has been kidnapped" I said and the amused look on his face was replaced by a serious one."What?" He asked. "When?""About an hour ago, I believe she was taken from her friend's place a few hours after she was threatened by Royal Markinson" I said and his frown deepened."I'm sorry, the Royal Markinson we all know?" He asked.What kind of question was that?"I don't think you know any other Royal Markinsons, Nate" I snapped. "I need you on this case right now, he has threatened to kill her and I don't have a clue where
Charles' p.o.vWe were led into the living room by one of the servants and waited a good ten minutes before Mario came out from wherever he was.On Mario's approval, Nate's team started searching the house while Nate and I talked to Mario."It's a pleasure to finally meet you in person" Mario smirked as he brought out his hand for a handshake and I only looked at it before I glared at him.He looked so much like Royal without that evil touch to him but I had learned the hard way that looks could be deceiving."I'm not here to shake hands boy, where is Royal?" I asked, taking a step towards him and Nate patted my back."How am I supposed to know my big bro's every move? Like he'd even tell me anything" "And why are you people searching our family house? I know we're not the best people but we haven't done anything that serious at least from all I know and Royal barely stays here" He said.He didn't know anything about his family if he could make such a statement."I'll handle this, Ch
Royal's p.o.vI had it all planned out. Abduct her, take her to the cabin, talk to her then kill her or set the place ablaze whichever decision would be the most bearable for me. I'd changed my plan at least a million times before I'd settled for this one. Initially I'd wanted my men to kill her at her apartment but I couldn't get myself to pass that instruction.The hold this woman had on me, I didn't kidnap people for vacations. I properly tortured my victims but I decided I wouldn't do that to her, I couldn't.I wanted her gone as soon as possible which was why I sent my men to her place that morning and took her, they were not to hurt her no matter what. Of course I knew where she was staying as well. As long as she was on the face of the earth, she couldn't hide from me.I arrived at the Cabin after my boys had informed me that they had her but she was passed out. I told them they could put her out because I knew Pamela would put up a fight, it was one of the things I loved about
Pamela's p.o.v"I really want to go to the bathroom," Charles said when he came out of his closet in just his briefs and tank top. He looked utterly breathtaking with his muscular arms and legs. All of that was mine, I was a lucky girl."No" I yelled from where I was lying on the bed, waiting for him."I want to pee," He argued."That's why you have a house with multiple bathrooms, go use any other one" I said and he sighed."Fine, I guess I'll just wait till you actually want to show me" He said and I nodded."That's right," I said.Charles smiled as he walked to the bed and lifted me up by my waist and I giggled."What are you doing?" I asked as I latched unto him, wrapping my legs around his waist and my hands around his neck, looking down at him with a smile."You're extraordinary, Pamela Riles,"He said and I placed a kiss on his lips."No, you are extraordinary," I said. Sometimes I paused to wonder what Charles really saw in me to make him still love me after all the heartbreak.
Charles' p.o.vSome might say that it was too soon but I to me there was no better time to propose to Pamela than tonight.I didn't want to think about it too much because I knew I'd probably change my mind so after my meeting with the board of directors, I gave my friend who owned a jewellery store a call and told him to bring his finest rings to my office.A knock came on my door while I was going through some documents."Come in" I said and Elle, my secretary, walked in. I employed her after I fired Pamela."Sir, Mr. Gregory has arrived" She said."You may leave and send him in '' I instructed. I had her add my meeting with him to my schedule for the day."Charles, buddy!" Greg exclaimed when he walked into my office with a man carrying bags.I smirked as I got up from my seat and went to welcome him."Hello Greg, so good to see you" We shook hands and I led him to a seat."The last time we met you were buying a wristwatch and now a bloody feminine ring?" He asked with an amused ex
Charles p.o.vIf I had known that this was what love could do to people, maybe I'd have never fallen but it didn't work like that. You didn't choose when or how you fell in love no matter how you tried. It just happened and you could either accept it or fight it for as long as you can.My love for Pamela was extraordinary. I didn't think there was anything this woman could do that would make me hate her, she remained perfect in my eyes."Charles…" Pamela moaned as I trailed kisses down her neck. Her eyes were shut as she held onto my neck."This is what you want, isn't it?" I whispered in her ear. I knew she wanted me last night and I wanted her as well but I didn't think we were ready yet. Even at this moment I wasn't sure but I really wanted to touch her."Answer me" I demanded as I reached under her shirt and cupped her breast."Hmm…yes" She cried when I pinched her nipple. "More please" She begged and I captured her lips with mine."Are you sure?" I asked and kissed her again, he
Pamela's p.o.vWhen we arrived at the house, Charles led me up to my room-the room that used to be mine.I looked in the closet and all my things were there, everything was as it was. I couldn't help my smile.I shook my head as tears welled up in my eyes. "I…you're too kind, Charles, I don't deserve all of this-"He placed a finger against my lips and slowly dragged it down."Ssh, we'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm exhausted" He whispered with his eyes on my lips. I didn't know if he meant to say that in a sexy way but it was sexy. His voice and gaze made my pussy throb.My heart began to race. I wanted so badly to kiss his lips but I didn't know if we were there yet but his gaze lingered which meant he wanted to.Charles' lips parted and I couldn't take it any longer, I pressed my lips to his and immediately slipped my tongue in to meet his. He groaned as he gripped my waist and pulled me closer to him. I ran my hands up his torso, it was all hands and tongues and lips moving in sync
Pamela's p.o.v"What?" I asked. How did Charles…oh fuck."Yeah," Mario said. "You can't ever let Royal know I helped" He added and I nodded."I can keep a secret," I said as the officer taking him home got into the car and got the engine going."Uh…I have to tell you that the baby isn't Royal's, it's Charles'" I said and his face fell."So I'm not gonna be an uncle" He pouted. "You know what? It's fine, I saved it and you and that is something" He said and smiled at me."We should leave now if you don't want to run into your brother" The officer said."You heard that, Pam" Mario said and I nodded. He waved at me."The godfather spot is still open if Royal won't have your head, goodbye Mario" I waved at him as the car reversed."I'll think about it!" He yelled.I walked back to Charles who was waiting."Good kid," Charles said."Yeah" I said. I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that he knew that very moment that I was pregnant. Should I talk about it or wait for him to bring it up?
Charles' p.o.v"Are you sure we're on the right path, Mario?" I asked, looking back at him. It was taking fucking forever to get to this cabin."I'm almost hundred percent sure we're very close now, I was eight the last time I was here with my dad but…I did come here when I was-""I don't want to hear about your-""Is that smoke?" Mario asked and I turned."Bloody…" Nate trailed off.There was indeed something burning not too far from us from all the smoke in the air."What the…" My heart began to race, I looked at Nate."Step on th fucking gas, Nate!" I yelled and he drove faster.What if that burning had something to do with Pamela and we were occupied driving like a bunch of kids on the way to a school picnic."Oh my fucking…" Mario began.My eyes went wide as I beheld the sight of the so-called Cabin ablaze. The fire had spread through the front porch."This is chief of police Nate Adkins…" Nate began talking into his walkie. He was instructing the presence of the fire department.
Royal's p.o.v"Royal what the fuck is that?" She stuttered as she scooted back against the wall, eyeing the gun in my hand.I wasn't going to hurt her…yet."Dramatic much" I said as I sat in the rocking chair in front of her.Pamela began to sob. "Please don't do this, I promise you won't hear about me if you let me go-"I put up a hand and stopped her. "Begging does nothing for me," I said. It irritates me and makes me even want to kill them more.She kept sobbing. She watched the gun closely as I placed it on my lap."This is embarrassing Pamela, can you relax?" I asked. Her squirming was getting me nervous.She gave me the middle finger. "Fuck you, Royal, okay?""I want to know how you did it" I said. I didn't know yet how she was so smart with her plan."Did what? I didn't do any-""When did you transfer ownership? You didn't know any of the plans in the beginning or did you find out?" I asked.She didn't know about the seventy percent shares, I made sure and she didn't even bothe
