Pamela's p.o.vIt was cold and I only had a robe on with no phone and no money but I was more scared of the look on Charles' face. I didn't recognize the Charles who said he would do anything for me, it felt like I had unlocked a beast and he wasn't going back to his cage anytime soon.I agreed that it was fair because I was sure he couldn't recognize me too. We had become strangers again, my biggest fear.There I was, pregnant with nowhere to go. The last place I wanted to be was Royal's house so I would rather die on the streets than go to him. I didn't want to seem weak like I had no one but him whether that be true or not.It was probably 12am in New York but cars and people were still on the road. I passed by a couple making out on a bench and a few drunk college guys whom I was extra careful about. I was stark naked underneath this robe.I finally arrived at a small store, one that still had its lights on and walked inside. I hoped the owner wouldn't stare at me the way every si
Pamela's p.o.vI didn't think much about Mia saying she'd take care of things because my mind was more occupied with thinking of how I'd get Charles back just like Grace suggested. The pressing question was if Charles was worth what it would cost to get him back and my answer was…yes. I was finally saying yes to him like I should have two years ago and for the first time it felt right like I knew what I was doing.I just hoped that Charles would take me back for the third time and my chest felt heavy like I would suffocate any minute at the thought that he might not take me back this time.Mia and Felix had a very beautiful house and accommodated me nicely. Felix was in the living room when we arrived and reading a book."We're back in one piece, babe," Mia said as she approached him from behind the couch. He tilted his head and they shared a kiss."Pamela, we were worried sick, how are you feeling?" He asked as he rose to his feet and we hugged briefly."Like shit, hello Felix" I sm
Pamela's p.o.vIt would destroy my company but at least Charles' would be safe."I'm going to ask to have Charles' designs back" I added.Mia's mouth fell open and the popcorn she had in there fell to the couch."Mia!" I whisper-yelled as I stared at the mess she'd made."Oh my god you're head over heels for this man!" She exclaimed, brushing down the pieces of popcorn on the couch."Independent Mia giving up something she's worked hard on to save a man?" She asked placing a hand over her chest and I chucklednervously as I nudged her."Stop being so dramatic," I said as I rolled my eyes."Do you think Charles will forgive you after this though?" She asked and I sighed."I honestly don't care right now I just want him not to suffer" I said as tears welled up in my eyes. I wondered what Charles was doing right now, trying to save his reputation maybe? I bet he wasn't asleep and it was my fault."I want to be less of a horrible person" I said and Mia frowned."You are not a horrible pe
Pamela's p.o.v"What do you mean by that?" I asked.Royal smirked as he opened his iPad and placed it in front of me.I glanced at a few words of what looked like a contract then looked at him."What is this?" I asked."That's the soft copy of our contract, if you bothered to read that which you didn't, you'd know that I own 70 percent of the shares in your company" Royal paused as my eyes darted to his iPad.70 percent? I began to read and scroll through the contract.Oh my god, he did own that much! How could he do this?"Why didn't you tell me about this?" I asked with a frown as I rose to my feet.Royal shrugged, looking totally unbothered."You didn't ask," He said."Because I didn't know that you were a snake! I trusted you with everything and you…you go and do this?" I asked. The more words I spoke, the more tears welled up in my eyes."I trusted you as well now you want to destroy all that we've worked for" He said as he took his iPad back. I shook my head as tears streamed do
Pamela's p.o.vI brushed my hair out of my face as I stared at myself in the mirror. My make up was done perfectly as well as my hair and my black long dress was literally out of this world. We searched far and wide to find this beauty and by 'we' I meant Mia and I.It was the eve of my birthday and the evening of Royal's launch party.I was beyond nervous."Mia, Pamela, you guys are fifteen minutes late already!" Felix yelled.We'd told him to be our life alarm clock otherwise we would be really late."Pamela!" Mia yelled my name and I heaved a breath."We've got this, Pamela" I said to myself and nodded. After one last glance at my beautiful face, I headed out of the bathroom and out of my room to find Mia and Felix sharing a kiss in the living room."Get a room you two" I joked, scrunching my face and they pulled away laughing."Okay, I'm ready," Mia said."Bye babe" Mia said to Felix when she grabbed my hand and he pouted."Don't worry, you can have her back in a few hours" I said
Pamela's p.o.v"...with that, I present to you Markinson establishment's newest designs" Royal announced into the microphone and stepped aside as the people clapped.The hall fell silent and all eyes were glued to the white screen, awaiting the designs which were…terrible?What the heck were we looking at? That faded stiletto looks like it was made by some tired shoe maker from centuries ago.The entire hall was suddenly full of murmurs and angry faces. I was so lost, I looked at Charles and from this angle I could see his brows were creased and he looked confused as well.It didn't look like he did this…then how did…"Stop the slide show, right now!" Royal growled, enraged and the slide show stopped."I wouldn't wear that gown even if it was the last clothing on earth" Mia said and I leaned closer to her."I promise that those aren't Charles' designs" I whispered. The least I could do was defend him."Oh, I know," She said, staring straight at Royal who was talking to one of his men
Pamela's p.o.v"What has he done to your company?" Charles inquired, his brows creased as he searched my eyes and I gave him a small smile."Nothing you have to worry about," I said as my hand flew to my mouth. Shit.I felt like I was going to throw up any minute."I'm just glad your designs are safe Charles and I'm so sorry that I've been utterly foolish all this while" I said and Charles frowned. I was aware of his hand that still rested in my back."Pamela…" He began."Goodbye, Charly" I grabbed my purse and Mia's hand and walked briskly out of the room."What is this rush about?" Mia asked as we came out in the hall, I kept pulling her along as I headed to a restroom."I need to throw up, that's what" I said."Oh…no, we gotta walk faster" She said and we did. We got to the restroom and she held my hair back.The night I came to Mia's penthouse suite, she found out I was pregnant. I didn't know the right time to tell her but when she asked if I'd eat the meal she'd prepared, I decl
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
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
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
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
