“I am twenty-six years old baby, Saying twenty-plus makes it sound so bad; Well, about last night, compared to what you told me when you did yours, mine was much more amazing,”I told her. “Bro, that’s certain, Jayden and I were teenagers and we were each other’s first, I mean, you might not have experience but your lover does so don’t mock us, We sure have gained a lot of experience through experimenting for years, I mean, we even made a new human together,”Rose bragged. “Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know that fact baby girl, stop rubbing it in my face or I won’t tell you everything,”I threatened. “You will not dare me love, I will hurt you down and get every detail,” She threatened and I didn’t take that threat for granted, my miss ma would do that just to get the juicy details from me, and I told her, everything from the moment he pushed me against the door and kissed me to everything that happened between us the night before, of course, I had to stop a couple of time because the stea
Kendrix I checked the time, I shouldn’t be spending so much time at the office today as I had told Ariel that I would be back early even though I was sure she would not even remember, I smiled at the memory of how she had hugged me in her sleep and asked me not to leave, even I didn’t want to leave but I had to because there were some things that I needed to put in place that couldn’t wait till Monday. I was almost done anyway and would probably be back home with her before three p.m. I just finished what I came to the office to do and was gathering my stuff to go home when my phone buzzed. I checked who was calling and it was the person I placed as the head of the new company I established in Dilgem, the company whose main focus was the production of wine was still young, less than a year old but was striving, I haven’t gained anything from the money I invested but I was sure that by the end of the year, I will gain something. I wondered why the head was calling me, it wasn’t time
Arielyn I glared at the phone after I dropped the call on Kendrix, I knew I shouldn’t be mad at him. he was working but for some reason, I was kind of pissed that he was out of the country and might not be back until the next weekend, this wasn’t how I pictured today would end, I spent the whole day sleeping in hopes that he would be back and we will continue from where we left off but now, I have to wait for a whole week before I can see him again. So not what I wanted and I couldn’t even pretend that it didn’t make me feel sad and unwanted, he could have delegated duties. “Of all the times to get a reason to travel, of all the times for an emergency situation to occur,” I let out with a pout, now that I slept throughout the day, I might not be able to get any sleep, which made everything worse for me because now I would spend the whole night pinning for him while he was all the way in Dilgem, he would probably be too busy to even think of me. I should not be acting like this, I a
Kendrix I spent the whole of the week in Dilgem, I barely had time to rest or do anything, I couldn’t even call Ariel to tell her how I was doing and she called me a couple of times but I was always not there when she called and when I finally got the time to go through my phone, it would be too late to call her as she would already be sleeping. It was my last day in Dilgem and everything was finally sorted out. I was currently seated with some of the people I spent the whole week working with, we decided to have a few drinks since it was my last night in Dilgem and we had finally been able to sort out the troubles in the vineyard and winery so I suggested a night out to thank them for putting so much effort into making sure that the issues surrounding the vine, tomorrow, I have to be in O-when because Ariel’s best friend’s wedding was the next day and I promised her that I will attend with her. I already know she would be beyond mad at me for not calling her since I got here but I
Kendrix “Yeah, I did, I wasn’t supposed to show myself to you but I have something important that I need from you,”She said and I wondered what it could be that she was willing to blow her cover for. “What are you talking about?”I was still trying to figure out if this was just a very realistic dream but the more we spoke, the more it was clear that it wasn’t a dream. “I have something that I need your help for, if you don’t mind helping me for old time's sake,”Veronica said. I was still in shock at the fact that the woman I loved had been alive the whole time I thought that she was dead, I tried to not let the fact that she stayed away from me get to me, she was right about not wanting to remain in a place where she was constantly at risk of being killed but she knew me enough to know that I would have moved with her if she had told me, I would have moved my whole life away from O-when to where ever she wants to be. It dawned on me that she might not have trusted me the way I t
Kendrix“Why? I know you told me your reason already but why did you end things with us? I was inconsolable for years after you left, I blamed myself for failing to protect you,”I told her. She looked remorseful. “I am sorry, Ken, but I did what I had to, it wasn’t my first time leaving a place behind and I didn’t know if it was my last, I didn’t want to drag you with me,”She explained. “I understand that now and I am glad you are okay, ahhhhhh,”I let out, letting go of the guilt that I had felt for years, she was okay, she was never in the fire and she was doing fine and running a successful business. I turned to see her watching me, our eyes met and there was a sudden shift in the air, I saw her lean towards me and stayed put, not doing anything even when her hand fell on my lap and we were practically face to face, I knew she was going to kiss me and I didn’t stop her. Our lips met in a tender kiss and held, I inhaled deeply, her lips, even though it has been years, I didn’t f
Arielyn Friday night, time, ten fifty and that man wasn’t back yet when he told me he would be back for Rose’s wedding, the wedding was by morning and I was currently at Rose’s house as we decided to spend the night together so that I can help her get ready for the ceremony, I kept checking my phone to see if he called but not a missed call, not just that, all week, I tried calling him but he never took my calls neither did he return them, it was starting to look like I was desperate for his attention so I decided not to call him again on the fifth day of him not picking his calls. “Why are you frowning? Is it because your man is not back yet?” Rose asked. I tried to mask my sadness but it was so hard to do when we had an agreement and he broke it, he told me that he would be back but he hasn’t answered my call since and now he wasn’t back, I was both worried and mad at him, he should have at least sent a text if he was so busy with whatever took him to Dilgem, this radio silence w
“Good morning people, I came to get the bride, the stylist and make-up artist will be here soon, we don’t want to be late,”I said when they woke up. her mom and dad said hi while Rose judgingly followed me, she wasn’t much of a morning person which was understandable. The pregnancy made it worse. Everything about the preparation for the ceremony went well, before ten am, the bride was ready and it was just for everyone to move to the chapel where the wedding ceremony was to be held. I walked out of Rose’s room talking to a guest who was finding their way to the chapel and giving directions when a familiar voice called my name from downstairs, I didn’t want to assume so I walked faster towards the stairs and there he stood at the bottom of the stairs, waving at me and smiling. “Hey, Arielyn,”He called, I stood there, hoping that I wasn’t imagining things, I called Raul earlier and he didn’t mention him being back so I wasn’t so convinced that he could just be back now, except Raul k
Arielyn “Oh my, Kenny,”I let out when he went on his knees in front of me, I hadn’t been expecting him to do that, we have been together for almost a year now and our love grew stronger every day so it was kind of expected but I thought he would do it towards the time he has to take over from his dad. The way he planned it all on his own, even did the decorations on his own, so spontaneous and so my Kenny. I couldn’t help the tears that escaped from my eyes just looking at him. Every new day, I fell in love with him a little more. Every day with him has been a blissful experience. “You had this all planned out and I didn’t even know?”I asked but it wasn’t even a question. More tears fell from my eyes as I walked slowly to him. “Yes, baby, I think I took a little too long to do this, the other night at your family’s cookout, I didn’t like that my sweetie was the only one without a wedding band, I had to correct that fast before someone thinks you are not taken and steal you away f
KendrixHer siblings and her father have done a good job so far trying to gain her trust and favor. We both stood there watching the women have fun, his other brothers and Jayden Win-rose’s husband joined us, because of Arielyn, I not only got the throne that I always wanted, but I also got friends and a family. I had better relationships with people now and even my mom confirmed that I was a better man now. I had my baby to thank, she came into my life and gave me everything I wanted and everything I never thought I needed and I wanted it to be forever. I wanted to make her my wife soon and the queen of my heart. Even though I wanted to ask her as soon as possible, I wanted something special for her so I went for a custom-made ring which had both of our initials engraved in it. I didn’t get the ones for the wedding as I wanted her to have a say in what we would get. It took about a week for the ring to be ready and delivered and while I waited for it to arrive, I made preparations f
Kendrix I watched Arielyn talk and laugh with some women who were at the cookout, some of whom were her brothers’ wives and their friends. We were at a cookout that her older brother was hosting at her family’s resort. I looked at their fingers and realized she was the only one not wearing a ring, I knew it was time to fix that. The past seven months have been nothing but blissful for me. Arielyn was and is the best thing that ever happened to me, I couldn’t stay away from her for long, I took her everywhere with me and she willingly followed me even though she sometimes had to work, I made sure our schedules never crashed to the extent of me going away without her, the only time I traveled without her had been hell so I ended up sending my jet to go get her. she talked about me being too obsessed with her and I accepted it whole-heartedly and told her I was making up for all the times we couldn’t be together because I had been blinded, if Veronica had not done what she did to me, I
Arielyn“You are lost in thoughts again, what are you thinking about?”Win asked, bringing me out of my thoughts, I smiled. “I am just thinking about how everything changed for me since I came back to O-when, I never thought my life would be like this when I parked my bags and got on the plane, all I wanted was to come for your wedding and also spend time with you,”I told her. “I know, right, I also didn’t think everything would turn out like this even though I was hoping you would find happiness, all I wanted was for you to get laid but you got more than that,”“You are the main reason all of this happened, this is why you are the love of my life, you bring good fortune to me,”I cheered. “If I am the love of your life, where does that leave your man? I am sure he won’t agree,”“He knows his place, and he is happy with it, he knows I love him and he also knows that I love you,”I answered and we both laughed, we had fun far into the night before we went to sleep. I woke up the ne
Arielyn Kendrix didn’t go back to his house that day, he called his mom who was indeed his darling, and told him he wouldn’t be home, he even got me to speak to her, and she told me that she had been waiting to meet me and Raul too since Kendrix told her about us and I told her we will move back to the house soon. Yes, I know I moved out recently and should probably stick to my home house until Kendrix and I get married but I didn’t know when that would be and I was already used to living with him. For my house not to go to waste, I found a family that was in need of accommodation and gave them the house for free. It was my little way of saying thank you to the universe for giving me a chance to be truly happy. The next couple of weeks went pretty fast for me, time tends to pass a lot faster when one is happy and yes. I was happy, the happiest I have ever been since I could tell what happiness was. For the first time in my life, I had my family by my side and I had the man I love wh
Arielyn Hearing Kendrix say the words love made me feel hot and anxious, I know he talked about working things out and wanting me to trust him again, I just didn’t think he would say the L words, didn’t even think he had that kind of feelings for me, I just thought he cared about me enough to not want someone else, that I was useful to him and his goal, but hearing him say the words I so much wanted to hear from him changed everything but then again, I couldn’t just blindly believe that he suddenly has feelings for me. as much as I love to hear him say he loves me; I didn’t want him to lie about it. “You don’t have to lie, Ken, I already agreed, we can work things out and build our relationship again, you don’t need to tell me you love me when you know that’s not true,”I told him, I didn’t want to be given any false hope. “Ari, I messed up, I understand that you can’t trust me right now but know, one thing, I am not lying to you, Ari, I love you, I really do, I don’t want to talk
Kendrix “No, you are special to me, Arielyn, and I am not lying, I only found out the day you left because I went to confront my brother and found them both together in an intimate position after she lied to me that he was trying to kill her. they set me up and I stupidly fell for it, Jordan called you that night to come and see because it was all part of their plans, Jordan wanted to get back at me for not giving up the throne for him and Veronica hated to see me happy,”I explained. “I don’t understand, what?”She asked. “Yeah, it is a long story,”“Let’s go over there, I am tired of standing,”She said, pointing to the terrace, I nodded and followed her, she took a seat and gestured for me to do the same which I did, I sat there just looking at her, missing her so much, wanting to hug her and be close to her instead of just sitting far from her. she wasn’t even looking at me. “Are you going to stare at me all day or you are going to explain the bizarre story you share?”She ask
Kendrix Arielyn wasn’t looking convinced by my explanation and I was slowly losing hope that she would ever look past what had happened and come back to me, everything I was saying sounded different to her, plan B? That has never crossed my mind. I couldn’t give up, I desperately wanted her to come back to me, the past week hadn’t been nice at all, I couldn’t focus on anything, nothing else mattered, not even when my father made the official announcement, I was just there standing beside him being announced as the heir but I wasn’t there, all I could think about was how to get Arielyn back, I couldn’t even remember what I had said on that day because I hadn’t been focus while speaking, I left the palace immediately I was no longer needed. I couldn’t escape for long because my father called me back, I had to meet a lot of important people and be introduced to them. The whole reason I finally found out where she lives was because I went to see her dad, he didn’t let me in at first but
Arielyn “Arielyn, please come back home,”I couldn’t believe his audacity, how could he show up at my house uninvited and expect me to follow him? “Get out of my house, I don’t want to see you near me, I am not going back with you anywhere, I already told you that day, that I am done with whatever contract we had, there is nothing in it for me so why should I still keep living with you?”I fired at him, I wanted to add; “Especially when you have another woman in your house,” But I didn’t say it. “I am not here because of the contract, it doesn’t matter anyway,”“That’s good then, move your car away from my gate, I need to get into my house,”I warned him as I backed away and opened my car door to get it, he was faster than me because he stopped me from getting into my car, our bodies touched and I had to fight the stupid feeling that built up inside me at the contact. “Why are you harassing me? Do you want me to call the cops on you?”I let out. “I am sorry but I can’t let you le
