The flight would have been a smooth one, that's if Caryn wasn't by his side. So far, he had tried his best to keep his distance. But she wasn't giving up anytime soon. She was reluctant and he didn't seem to be interested in having a conversation. After working for an hour on his laptop, he decided to take a break. His eyes were shut but he wasn't asleep and she knew. All this was just a plot to ignore her but he wouldn't be able to, at least not for long regarding the fact that she's right beside him. “ Nathan? Are you up?” she called softly and proceeded to touch him but she withdrew her hand. His breath became deeper as he shut his eyes tightly. Didn't she take all this as a clue? That he wanted nothing to do with her? Why was it so difficult for her to comprehend? “ Nathan? C'mon, I know you are awake. Let's talk, you can't shut me out for too long.” “ What do you want?” Nathan blurted and rolled his eyes at her. “ You don't have to act that way, I know you loathe me but hea
“ Good morning handsome. Last night was awesome. We should do it this frequently.” she whispered the moment he roused up. He was still half awake and for a moment, he thought he was in his room and probably on his bed. What happened last night and why did his head pound loudly? He jolted up the moment he had flashbacks. He was kissing someone passionately and they made love. It was too much to recall so he didn't see the person face. “ What is it? Are you okay? Does your head hurt? Should be from the way you banged me hard yesterday. I must say I'm very impressed, never knew you had such sexual prowess.” she smacked and winked at him. The memories came flooding. Every single bit of it. Guilt and regret crept in and he had his hand on his head. He was dead. “ No, no, no. What have I done? What have I done? No!!” “ Calm down Nathan, why are you acting like a toddler. Don't tell me you didn't enjoy it cause you were screaming so high that I'm quite sure
Eerie silence. That bitch! She probably broke the news to Ava. What was he going to do, not like there was any thing he could say that would prove him guilty. “ Ava, I swear on my life I didn't mean to. It was that scoundrel who led me on..” His countenance was grave and he sounded weak. He was on the verge of loosing the only woman he loved. “ What are you talking about? I only called to ask how you could ignore my calls yesterday without a reasonable explanation for it.” Oh did she? He swallowed a lump of saliva and exhaled. For some reasons, he had been holding his breath. Had he spilled too much? He could take it back. “ Oh, that. I'm really sorry. I was really tired yesterday and I had to go to bed. I will make it up to you, okay?” “ Are you alright, Nate? For a moment, I thought I heard you say something about being led on.” “ No, no. You heard wrong, Aviva. I have to go now, I have a meeting with my client this morning.”
[ Warning: This novel is R-18. I know you already saw the tag but I would like to remind you just incase you missed it.] “ No, no. This is wrong, Caryn. You have no right to do this!” She smirked and whispered seductively with her breath fanning his neck. He would been rock hard by now with the way she her tongue was almost touching his earlobe but he wasn't thinking straight. His heart was racing fast. How could this happen under his watch? How?? “ Says who? You underestimate women, Nathan and for a man of your caliber, it's shocking. A woman would go any length just to have you and I'm no exception. I have never been known for giving up.” “ Why are you hellbent on ruining my life? Cause yours isn't as perfect as mine? Or because no one would want you?” She released a sigh and with her drink in her hand, she walked slowly and touched the masterpiece on the wall. It was perfection, a beauty that needed to be seen by the world. It was her moa
“ What did he say? He doesn't know Caryn is in charge?” Ava asked, obviously weak ever since she heard Caryn was there in the same city as Nathan. “ He doesn't have any idea, Ava. But relax, he will sort this out.” She sighed and pinched her brows. “ I'm not worried about the deal, Dean. I'm more concerned about Nathan. Regarding the fact that Caryn is over there and I'm over here..” a small tinge of sadness flickered through her eyes and she waltzed her way towards Dean. “ Is that how lowly you think of Nathan? He would never do such a thing, Ava. This, I'm confident of.” Dean vouched for Nathan and she had no choice but to accept her fate and just wait for her Nathan to be back. “ Believe me, Ava.. He would never do anything of that such to hurt you.” “ I don't feel comfortable, Dean. Leaving him all alone, gullible to Caryn and her temptations. I pray he overcomes cause I would live with the scars for the rest of my life.” “ No one is
“ Sir, please fasten your seat belt. The plane is about to take off.” the flight attendant whispered politely and he did just that. It was Wednesday morning and he was on a flight back home. After he had that conversation with Caryn, he decided to end the madness and booked a flight. Deal or not, he would go back to Ava. It'd had just been a day apart but he felt he would go nuts if he didn't hurry back home. It was 6am. He would be in V by 4pm. He was excited and looked forward to seeing Ava. She would be so surprised to find him back home by evening. As for, Caryn, he would look for ways to get her out of the way. He would trying offering her a huge amount of money so she would stay away from him because he was certain, she was also doing this for the money. If she tends to pose as a threat to him and Ava, he would be left with no choice but to eliminate her. He worked all through the journey and never for once shut his eyes. Around 10am, a
She got a call. She had been pacing frantically all over the room. Why has Nathan not come to her yet? She had knock several times on his room but no response. “ Hello ma'am, I'm calling to inform you that Mr. Nathan didn't show up today. Do you have any idea if he has left already?” Just then, an idea flickered through her mind. What if he had really gone back home? Just like he had threatened yesterday? Caryn pursed her lips and clenched her fists into tight balls. Try as she might, she could not contain herself. Within seconds, she erupted like a volcano. “ Thanks for informing me. I will place a call across and let you know where he is.” she managed to say. The call ended and Caryn was like a raging storm. She paced around as she had been doing all through the day and decided it was time to ruin things.. She held the phone and with every hard breath, she waited patiently for Ava to answer the phone. But it rang end
“ Have I done something wrong?” Done something wrong? Far from it. He wanted to know how it would like having a taste of his ripe fruit. He had been so patient. He watched this seed grow. It went from a mere seed buried underneath the earth and watched it germinate. He was elated when she had her first bloom. Nathan watched her go through all stages of growth and he was excited when a fruit finally emerged. Took a long while waiting for this fruit to ripen. He could have hastened the process but he wanted her to get comfortable. To feel safe around him, to love him just as he did. It was harvest season but she was still a bit inexperienced or maybe she was just claiming to be. “ Ava, what do couples do when they finally feel comfortable with each other? Not like they weren't but you know, in cases like ours.” Ava wasn't naive. She knew exactly what he wanted.. She had prepared for this day and she knew it would come but she didn't think
[ Warning! This Chapter Contains Mature Content Not Suitable For Young Readers.] He gently unzipped my dress and the gown fell to ground. His gaze was causing more bad than good. It made me crave him more. I stepped out of it, our gaze still locked. In the past one second, Nathan has stared at my body in awe countless times. And here I was in the middle of some airplane, half naked with just my panties on. What if someone walked in? “ I will go change now. Hey, stop staring at me like that. It makes me want you more.. you have to promise to be a good boy and behave. We will have all the time in the world to worship each other's body when we are off this airplane.” “ I never said I planned to be a good boy, Aviva. Maybe I was but I changed my mind the moment I saw your smoking hot body. I really can't promise to keep my hands to myself, princess.” And he was being honest. I could make out the hunger in his voice as he spoke. I had starved this man
Hi, lovelies, I'm so excited to be back. I took a break but now, I'm are back fully. I'm so sorry for the delay. Ava and Nathan's love story is about to end.. We have just a chapter or two more to go.. And also for this last part of the book, I will be making use of the first person POV. Enjoy!! ***** “ Do you, Aviva Alexander, take Nathan Lewis to be your lawfully wedded husband?” Silence. The buzzing hall was now as silent as a graveyard. I'm sure you could hear just how loud one's heart pounded if you listened keenly. I smiled at Nathan, he had tears running freely down his face. Today, he dropped the “ Strong, arrogant CEO who doesn't give a fuck about anyone” and in it's stead, was a handsome young man who was capable of loving someone. In him I saw someone who was tamed to love, someone who doesn't know just how much love he's capable of giving because he has never given it a try. “ Uhm, I don't know if you noticed fluffy bear, but they are a
“ Nathan!” What was she doing here? It's a modeling audition for crying out loud. Nathan and Aviva folded their arms and watched her yell and whine about him being married. “ Caryn, can you slow down? By the way, who's married to you?” he asked and all eyes were fixed on them. This would serve as good entertainment while the judges were away tabulating the scores. “ Nathan Lewis, I will not have you humiliate me this way. I won't! Now, get up and let's go home.” she ordered like some boss who was passing out instructions to her employees. “ I'm not going anywhere, just yet Caryn. You can either have your seat and enjoy the show or you can choose to leave. Whichever works for you, my lady.” “ Are you being serious here? You're doing all this because of this, this ugly, classless girl? Are you not ashamed being seen with her? I'm pretty disappointed in you, Nathan. We have sophisticated, elegant and smart ladies in this city but you choose to chea
Modeling Audition, Semi-final & final. “ Nervous? I believe you will do perfectly well. You scaled through the last round remember? You will get through this also. We are rooting for you, Aviva.” “ Oh my goodness, this is the first time I have ever heard you say something positive. Thank you so much, Avery. I love you so much..” “ Girls, they are about to start. Come over.” Alex called out. Avery stared at her sister, she was grateful she had everyone back. They held hands and walked into the hall which was filled to the brim with people. Luckily, Alex had been able to secure seats for them all. “ Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the semi finals/ finals. We are pleased to see you all. After the first round, hundred people were screened out and only twenty were qualified to move on to the next stage.” “ Well, only five people will be taken from this round to go on to the final round where we will pick only two persons. B
“ Mom. I got the money and narrowly escaped death. Someone else has been framed for stealing the money.” she informed her mom on phone and the lady went hysterical. “ You got it? That's my girl. You're just like your mom, Caryn. I'm so proud of you, darling.” “ Thank you mom. I will transfer half of the money to Dad's account. I want his company to be back on its feet for good.” “ Alright love. Your father sends his regards. One more thing Caryn, be careful out there.” “ I will. I love you, I have to go now.” They were outside, with ears glued on her door. They had heard it all, but Nathan beckoned on them to follow him. They tiptoed, to avoid being heard. “ Now that we have gotten concrete evidence, what do we do next?” Hazel interrogated. “ We will let her keep the money. I'm gathering a lot of evidence and by the end of the day, she would be left with nothing. All she stole right now, is the alimony I'm supposed to pay a
“ What's going on?” There was absolute silence. If a pin had fell down, there was every certainty it would be heard. She walked in and met her beloved family in a state of distraught. She was sure they had heard the news already. “ Nathan honey, what is it? Why are you all seated there like some bunch of robots? Talk to me, somebody.” if there was one thing she was good at, it was pretense. She threw her shoes on the floor and rested her head on the couch. If they were not going to talk, then she would let them be. It was difficult to breathe as she felt a sharp pain around her neck. No one had expected it, not even Caryn herself. Nathan held her tightly around her neck, his fingers tightened every second, and his nails dug deeper into her skin. It wouldn't be long before she started bleeding. “ What are you doing, Nathan? Put her down!” Dean yelled but Nathan was no longer in control. He was infuriated and couldn't even hide it. “ N
The dim light in the room made it a bit easy to see. These days she kept her curtains closed and the lamp, off. Today, she felt switching on a candle would be better. She had been in bed all day, doing nothing but mope. Her door moved slowly, and the dim light barely made it easy to see the lady's face. The woman who had birthed her, but now, it felt like they were two strangers meeting for the first time. Lina had walked in, without the tiniest courtesy of knocking. Ever since the issues with Ava, her family treated her like a complete outcast, her dad not excluded. They avoided her like a plague. The only activity that brought them together as a family, was eating at the dinning table. On most days, she would have her meal upstairs in her room. She decided to tag along to Ava's audition, not because she was invited but she felt like going. Rolling her eyes and heaving a deep sigh, she rolled to the other end of the bed. Her back was turned to Carolina,
Now he knew why Dean made that prayer yesterday. He knew she was a bad cook but he didn't think it would be this bad. What happened last night was a mistake that would never repeat itself. Penne pasta with vodka sauce and some parmesan cheese. After the funny but useful prayer from Dean, they all grabbed their cutleries and proceeded to feast on the meal she had made. Dean went first and spat it out the moment it got into his mouth. “ Hell nah, I'm not doing this. I'm not doing this with y'all, I will ask the maid to make me something.” “ But it's really not that bad, Dean. Just close your eyes and chew quickly. Caryn you are such a good cook, no doubts.” Hazel spoke, forcing a spoonful of poison into her mouth. “ Do you like it? I did well, right?” she asked innocently. Nathan nodded, they all nodded. Hazel made Dean take a few more spoons of the terrible concoction she made. And for a sec, they had initially thought it wouldn't be as bad as
“ Why does the room look like someone went through our things.” he inquired after taking a thorough look around the room. Something wasn't right, the drawers had items sticking out. The wardrobe wasn't properly closed, the pillows were wrongly arranged and the bed looked like someone had jumped on them. With a smile of deceit, she rubbed her palms and walked closer. Nervously, she asked. “ What do you mean?” her voice was shaky and her heart was pounding so loudly. “ I mean..” but on second thoughts, there was really no need to engage her in a conversation or questions her, knowing fully well she would deny ever searching for only God knows what, thereby turning the house into a mess. “ Nothing. Hazel is home, she lost her baby. I thought you should know.” he said with his gaze fixed on nothing in particular. “ Poor little thing. I will go check on her later, she must be feeling so sad at the moment.” Playing along, he replied.“ Yeah, she
