“ Take off your cap.”What should she do? Why was Eve all out for her? She was making her uncomfortable already and ever since Ava walked in, Eve's gaze never for once left her. With her scrutinizing eyes, Eve tried so hard to catch a glimpse of her face. “ Please, just.. just call Mr. Nathan.” Ava stammered. “ And tell him what?” She snarled and shifted her gaze to the computer screen. Ava was definitely not ready to see Nathan, if she was, she would take off her cap. Minutes had passed and Eve had totally forgot she left someone standing. “ Can I go now?” Ava asked. “ Go where? If you do not want me to humiliate you, please leave my sight.” Her rude outburst was still a shock to Ava and she couldn't comprehend why she got such lashing. Did she say or do anything wrong?The old Ava would have broken down in tears or bolted out immediately but she clearly remembered what Dean had said the day before. This girl right here, was clearly jealous of he
Dropping her carefully on the chair in his office, he asked if she wanted anything. “ Do you want something to eat?” She had been clutching onto the food flask and it was only now his undivided attention went back to it. “ No.” she nodded her head and with his eyes fixed on it, he asked, “ Why are you holding a flask? You brought food along with you? I can take you to the cafeteria if you want.” Silly! Who said she came here to eat? “ I brought it for you. I know you leave quite early for work and...”He smiled genuinely. How thoughtful of her. None of his previous women ever brought food for him. They instead visited and ate in the cafeteria or insist they go to any fancy restaurants nearby. None of them could cook. “ Thank you, Ava. Now, what was that scene you put out there?” He asked and watched keenly as her face went pale again. Her priceless reaction left him grinning from ear to ear. Of course she didn't think he was that dumb! He knew it was an
[ Warning!

He had been a beast to his wife this past months, he couldn't explain why. Or he could. He had caught her in a hotel that cold night when he drove in to get a room for his client who was new in the country. He stood frozen to the exact spot as he saw a drunk man wrap his hand around Lina's waist and staggered while Lina who a bit sober paid for their room. He could remember the loud laughs as they barely managed to reach their room. A tear slid down his face as he watched another man hold his wife intimately and his whole world came crumbling when they made out in the elevator. He had been there. He saw it all, he saw Lina smile at him unconsciously. She didn't seem
[ Warning!This Chapter Contains Mature Content Not Suitable For Young Readers. I know you guys already saw the tag but I would like to tell you again that this novel is R-18. Thank you. ]They weren't supposed to be doing this, but they still went ahead to. Delilah on the other hand was happy things were going her way while Alex was doing this just to feel better. This wasn't lovemaking, this wasn't because he loved her, this wasn't lust either. He just couldn't explain what it was. Delilah noticed it too but she ignored it. While Delilah was moaning out of pleasure, Alex was getting flashbacks of another man riding his wife and her screaming. With every episode he thought about, he thrust in harder and Delilah was shaking from pleasure but the man inside her was hurt beyond repair. He was going wild. Her screams of pleasure gradually turned into cries of pain but Alex was far gone to notice the whimpers from the girl underneath him. He was hurting her but he didn't
His attitude changed and from that night, he never wanted anything to do with her. He would stop her from trying to touch him and would leave the house quite early to avoid seeing her. Alex avoided her like the plague; a deadly one. Ever since that day, she was unclean in his eyes. The images never left his head for once, they kept coming back and he was started to loose his sanity bit by bit. Carolina had noticed. She noticed the sudden change in how he treated her. What could have gone wrong? She remembered it all started from that night. Yes, it was definitely since that night. She had stayed up waiting for him and immediately she heard the car horn blare and the sound of screeching tyres, she jumped on her feet and ran to the door. Her husband was never known for keeping late nights. He would come home early usually around 7pm or before. What had she done? Cause she watched the love and admiration in his eyes slowly get replaced with disdain and disgust. How co
Everyday, she lived with that guilt. The guilt of selling her baby to the wealthy lady whose baby had died during delivery. The moment Robert stepped out, an idea rang a bell and she asked the nurse about the lady who had just lost her child. “ She's quite wealthy ma'am. She's a regular here. She had been looking for a child for the past ten years. Her husband is running out of patience and might just get another wife soon.” Such was life. She had all the riches in the world but that couldn't buy her a child, unless she bought one literally. She had given birth more than five times but she always gives birth to a stillborn baby. Amelia concluded that lady's case was more critical than hers. Gotten pregnant several times and after giving birth, you get a dead body? That was totally unfair. “ That's so sad. I feel so sorry for her.” Amelia said while Chloe's little mouth found it's way to her mother's breast. She noticed Carolina barely ate, Chloe was more of a glu
The steward rolled in the cart and Amelia was left speechless. Just one drink here could change her life forever. She had been here several times but she had always asked for juice. “ Ma'am, what would you want?” He asked placing the glass cup on the table with the lemonade Layla had asked for. “ Nothing John. I really don't want anything..” Amelia masked her anger with a deceitful smile. “ I think you try this. Domaine Leroy, Musigny Grand Cru. ” He said picking a bottle of wine off the cart. “ This is Pinot Noir wine.” “ Pinot Noir?” Amelia asked, she wasn't family with stuffs like this. “ Yes, Pinot noir is one of the worlds most popular red wines. It's made from black-skinned grapes that thrive in a narrow spectrum of cooler climates.” He explained and poured a drink for her. “ Now, Domaine Leroy, Musigny Grand Cru. Deep ruby-red color. The wine has intense cherry and raspberry tasting notes accompanied by subtle aromas of coconut and black tr
It was late in the evening when Ava arrived at Nathan's residence. She had taken a cab and didn't bother to inform Nathan she was coming over. “ Welcome ma'am.” The security personnel greeted and took her bag after Ava had insisted several times. “ Thank you.” she said and walked slowly, staring at the beautiful mansion. The last time she was here, she didn't get the chance to check it out. She would definitely do so tomorrow. “ Ava? I didn't know you would be coming. You took a cab?” Dean exclaimed as they collided in to each other. “ Hi, Dean. Yes, I took a cab. I didn't want to bother you plus I decided to surprise Nathan.” she replied sweetly as she engulfed him in a bear hug. “ It's nice to see you.” He was about stepping out when they bumped into each other. He paused and called after her, “ Uhm, Ava...” “ Yes?” She tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear and waited for him to say whatever he had to say. “ I- I- nothing Ava. Just
[ 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
