I looked at myself in the mirror one last time to make sure that I at least looked presentable. The makeup was subtle, thank God, I didn’t want to look like some tramp. Sultry, and soft was exactly what I was going for. The dress was a deep burgundy, cinching at the waist and flaring out from there.

He knocked again, and I knew I had to hurry up. Aiden didn’t like being kept waiting. I doubted he’d hate it if it were Odessa. I banished the thought from my mind and focused on the task at hand. We were going to the hospital to get this whole thing started. All I had to do was get pregnant.

I packed my small purse containing a pad of sticky notes so that if there was anything I needed to put down when speaking to the doctor, I could do it. I also put in a pen, my earphones to listen to music on the way so that I didn’t have to hear him speak and get into my head, a pair of photochromic glasses and my lip gloss.

He must have been about to knock, because his

    Scarlett's PovI followed quietly behind Aiden and several thoughts ran through my mind as I began to doubt if I wanted to proceed. “I do not have a choice anyway. I’m sure he doesn’t care about me. This is what's best for me at the moment.” I said inwardly.We entered the hospital and Aiden approached a nurse. He was farther from me so I couldn’t hear what he said to her. She looked through his shoulders at me and smiled. I approached them with an uncertain look on my face.“You’re welcome. You can come with me to the waiting room while I get the doctor for you.” She said with a warm smile and a great gesture. I wondered why she seemed so happy.Aiden and I followed her into a room that had a nice ambiance. I was not interested in whatever was around. I just wanted to see the doctor and get down to business. “You should take off your earphones.” Aiden tapped my thigh and said to me. I shrugged and arched my brow at him. I

    Scarlett's Pov I looked at Aiden as he gazed back at me. I could not understand why he would think I would decide to have sex with him. I wondered why he would even choose that. I mean, it's not like I meant anything to him.I began to reminisce on the sex we had in the pool. I snapped out of it and reminded myself of how trashy he treated me. “You mean nothing to him. This is just a contract so get it together,” I said to myself. “I would rather have an implantation. I have no reason to experience sexual excitement. It's just a contract and it should be handled as such.” I said aloud without looking at Aiden.“I can not have my sperm removed from me. I do not want to have to masturbate.” Aiden interrupted me. I looked at him and asked, “So what's that supposed to mean?” “You will just have to have sex with me because I can not masturbate. I won't.” He said firmly and I knew there was nothing I could say to make him change hi

    Aiden’s POVI did not know what to do to make Scarlett feel better. I was exhausted by the attitude she was putting up. I stretched my hands over to her face and removed her earphones from her ear.She grumbled and frowned at me before she yelled, “What?” She looked so paranoid and I couldn’t understand what all the attitude she was giving me was all about.“What is it again? You’ve been so quiet and I don’t like how you are blocking your ears. I don’t feel like you are here with me and I’m not pleased.” I said to her sternly.“I do not want to talk to you and I don’t have anything to say to you. I just want to go home.” Scarlett did not care to look at me. She just spoke and kept her gaze out the window.“Anyway, I want us to eat out tonight. I know a very nice restaurant that we can go to.” I felt that could make Scar feel better or cheer her up. I mean, who wouldn’t like to eat something nice? “I want to go home. I’m not

    Scarlett's POVAiden approached with the hot coffee in his hand and I wondered if he wasn't going to drop it before finally getting to me.“Well, I'd say I'm interested in both but it depends on you.” He placed the coffee on the slap and pulled me closer to himself. He pulled off my shirt and put his head between my breasts.He had not placed his lips on them but I gasped. My body was ready for his touch and I craved it like an addiction.He raised me and placed me on the kitchen slab and pushed the cup of coffee off. The cup fell and the coffee spilled all over the floor. I just sat down waiting anxiously for him to suck on my boobs.He stood in front of me and pushed his hands through my thigh before pulling me forward to himself. I could feel my body hair standing. His process was slow and it made me anticipate what he was going to do.Aiden licked all around my boobs, I gasped for air and put my hands on his shoulde

    SCARLETT’S POVI had come to accept that my thoughts were haunted. Else, how else could I explain that one individual is the one that consumes all of my thoughts and has suddenly become the essence of my being? He consumed my thoughts, he consumed my essence, and as much as I wanted to convince myself that I hated it, I knew that deep down, I LOVED it! And I hated myself even more for loving it, everything was an endless myriad of emotions that I didn’t even know I was capable of feeling.I had not seen Aiden since last night and I was hoping I wouldn’t bump into him as I wrapped my robe around my body and headed downstairs to grab a coffee. One could think I was some sort of burglar as I tiptoed my way down and looked over my shoulders to make sure I did not run into Aiden. Everywhere was silent and I assumed that he probably had to drop by at work pretty early or he was busy in the gym, whichever it was, I was just glad tha

    CHAPTER 87AIDEN’S POVI knew that something was totally off about Scar when she walked out on me last night.It was very unlike her and to be honest, she has been quite off for the last few days, I hate that I couldn’t read her, I hate that she’s mad at me and I can’t seem to figure out how or why. ‘Damn! Why did she have to be so difficult?’ I thought to myself."Sir, I have prepared your ride," Donald's voice interrupted my thoughts. With his hands outstretched, he was giving me the keys to the bike."Oh, yes please," I said as I collected the keys from his grasp.I knew I had to do something to clear my head, it seemed like I had totally lost it lately, because what else could explain the recent thoughts I have been having?Why should I be bothered that a lady is upset with me? Let alone my contract wife.That is what Scarlett is to me, “A contract wife”, I had to say it out loud for me to convince myself and believe it.***************"you should enter into professional bike ri

    SCARLETT’S POV I uttered the words right there and then. “Yes, I’ve been acting that way because I’m in love with you, as much as I wished that it weren’t true,” I finally admitted. Aiden’s eyes widened, and he looked at me in so much shock, almost uncertain of what to say; I saw his mouth open and then his mouth closed again almost immediately. It was almost like he had a lot to say but then he didn’t have anything to say. “I saw you with Odessa, I saw the both of you together, I saw how you guys were, and I know that you are in love with Odessa,” I added. Aiden just stared back at me in unbelief as I poured those words out of my mouth. “You don't have to say anything,” I remarked. “I got jealous, I knew I shouldn’t have but I did,” I continued. “It's the reason I was acting all weird, but s

    AIDEN’S POV Very weirdly, I almost couldn’t forgive myself. “I love you,” Scarlett’s voice echoed in my thoughts, and it consumed me. “Sir, here are the papers you requested.” I was brought back to reality by my assistant. “Okay, just leave them on the table” “Alright, Sir”. Donald said as he made to leave. “Um, excuse me, have the investors called back yet?” I asked in earnest; we really needed to kick start the NGO in earnest, and there was already too much time gone. “Feedback from the investors is contained in the file I just brought, Sir, you can go through it, and I will place all your calls and make the necessary arrangements that you want me to,” Donald said with a face of apprehension. I couldn’t always read Donald’s facial expressions because he always had an air of professionalism in his gaze and outlook

    AIDEN’S POVIt felt surreal to me.I never could have conceived the idea that I would one day be getting ready to marry the absolute love of my life.It felt like a little dream come true, a dream that I probably never conceived in my wildest imagination.Yet, I felt nothing but happiness and a sense of fulfillment and happiness as I looked on into the future with a sense of hope and happiness.“I see that you’re having cold feet, Son,” my Dad’s voice came through as he walked into the room.I had been standing right in front of the mirror, trying out solid affirmations and reassuring myself that I had made the right choice for myself and my life.“No Dad. I’m very excited, just a little bit nervous,” I tried my best to say, even though my voice was cracking.“She’s so perfect Dad, what if she’s too good for me? I have always been so selfish, what if I’m not good enough for her and our kids?,” I continued.

Of course, it didBut would I pass on the idea of getting married to the absolute love of my life? Not.I was in my room, looking up some of the interior design samples that the decorator had sent to me when I felt his shadow over me.“You need help with that baby girl,” Aiden said, towering over me and leaning in for a kiss.“No, but I may need your help with other things,” I said, smiling and reaching out to kiss him.Every day, I fell more and more in love with this beautiful man.“Oh, I sure know how to help with that,” he said, as he scooped me up and planted a kiss firmly on my lips.I squealed.He lifted me and then dropped me carefully on the bed, all the while kissing me fervently like he was parched and thirsty for me.We had been frequently having

    SCARLETT’S POVI watched as Aiden stood up for himself. Being brave against all odds. We all gasped when he said that he wouldn’t be arresting them any longer, knowing that they deserved that arrest, he had been surprising to all of us and even the agents had looked on in disbelief.“You’re sure Mr. Aiden, because we did receive a call that you needed our help getting some people detained, you’re sure that you’re not being held under duress or something like that?” the agent, the one that looked like he was their leader asked, with a questioning glance, as he looked on each of us suspiciously.“No Officer, thanks for your prompt response; but I just made a wrong call due to some confusing series of events, I’m so sorry about that and I apologize,” Aiden said, while trying to look as apologetic as possible.“Alright then Sir, you can always call our office if you feel the need to, we’re always at your service,” The agent leader said, turn

    AIDEN’S POVI would be lying if I said that I was surprised by what Pen said, nothing she did seemed to surprise me that much. I had known her for a while and I knew that she did not play by the rule book, but I was glad to have beat her at her own game, it felt extremely refreshing.“you better start explaining yourself, because I have already called the FBI on you and I’m certain you all are not ready to be arraigned for fraud,” I hoped to God that my eyes were portraying exactly how I was feeling. I wasn’t mincing words and I needed them to know that I had all this under control and they were all collectively going to suffer for even trying to sabotage the security of my company.“You all should better start talking because there was no way I was bluffing,”I could see the look of unbelief in the eyes of Charlie Fox and the bewildered look in Pen’s eyes, followed by the tired look in Scarlett.Scarlett was very tire

    SCARLETT'S POVFor the longest time, I thought I still had a glimmer of hope to hold onto; something small but significant, something that excited the senses even if it burned, something that lingers on in your memory even in the darkness. It was all a facade. In reality, I had nothing. Nothing to hold, nothing to have, nothing to remember, it was all empty, void, and meaningless None of it made any sense, none of it was great, it was all just a sad and lonely facade that I deluded myself into thinking that I had... I had nothing… I watched as Aiden tried to lie his way out of what I had just heard. He had thought me to be a fool all these while I couldn't stand the betrayal that came from knowing all of these. I can't believe Aiden spoke about me in a dehumanizing manner to this lady of all people. At this point, I could say I greatly preferred Odessa sneering at me, not this girl who stood in front

    AIDEN'S POV "Don't talk to me like I'm a child, " Scarlett said. It took me aback and paused me in my tracks. I had a blend of mixed emotions in that moment and I think what I felt the most was pride. I was beyond proud of Scarlett for standing up for herself, but I took a good look at Pen and I just knew that Scarlett might have bitten a little more than she can chew. "What did you just say? " Pen asked while advancing towards Scarlett. I sensed a lot of drama unfolding. Should I stop it? Maybe I should. But am I going to stop it? I don't think so. I'm going to grab my imaginary popcorn and just watch the whole thing unfold. "I said you should stop talking to me like a child, " Scarlett said, even more defensively. She stood her ground and refused to back down to pressure. She was being resilient and I saw a boldness in her eyes that I

    SCARLETT'S POVI watched in utter dismay as the events unfolded in my very eyes. I had felt tremendously nervous to break the news and to top it off, I had to do the revelation in front of all the peering eyes. My nervous radar shot up terribly and I didn't know if I was happy that it wasn't Aiden and I alone, or I was nervous that it was in front of all these people.The whole thing just made me confused and nervous at the same time, I honestly didn't know what to do or how to feel and yet I watched the conversation that ensued amongst them. The back-and-forth that happened between Penelope, Aiden, Odessa, and Charlie Fox was one that I watched with mixed emotions. What truly became of me after they agreed? Did I have anything to win in this situation? I was going to be at the losing end no matter what happened and it just made me wonder what exactly would become of me. However, the e

    AIDEN’S POVIt almost felt like I didn’t hear what Scarlett had said for a moment, and for that, I felt lost and utterly alone. I questioned myself on how on earth I had gotten it all wrong.Did I do something I shouldn’t have?Why did she feel the need to lie to me for so long?And why on earth did it feel like everyone else knew except for me?“Scarlett, what did you say?” I proceeded to ask very slowly. “I said I am pregnant,” she repeated.“When did you find out?” I asked in the smallest of voices, I needed to know for how long I had been in the dark. It at least made sense to know for how long I have been in the dark and for how long she has been lying to me.“Aiden, do we have to have this conversation right now?” Scarlett asked with her eyes glistening with tears, she looked like she was about to cry and I didn’t know if I cared as much.I needed the truth and I needed to know how long
