HUH?!โ I turned in shock I was so confused. My wife was right in front of me and we were having a good time together so who would dare come right in front me and ask her for a dance. To my best knowledge she has no male friends matter of fact she has no other friend asides Claire and even if she did who DARES talk to her where I am. I could feel my blood getting hot and my eyes burning. I was ready to give whoever that person was a punch. I turned so fast to see who the voice belonged to. โOh Godโ I exhaledโJASPER??!!!โ I was bewildered I couldnโt believe my eyes. My favorite cousin that I hadnโt seen for almost ten years was right in front of me with a smile on his face. โI missed you manโ I leaned in for a big reciprocating hug โI havenโt seen you in foreverโ he said with his ever knowing and soft tone and a sweet smile. Jasper was my favorite cousin in his late twenties, we grew up together, he was like my brother not just my cousin. He moved to another country and we tal
I froze on seeing a shadow in my room. I couldnโt breath although it was a secure house I couldnโt just pinpoint why I was that scared to my bone marrow. I gathered all the courage I have in me and shouted โWHOโS THERE?โ Flipping the light switch on I saw that it was Jasper shirtless on the bed I gasped heavily out of fear and shock from his body He was so hot. I couldnโt believe my eyes. He looked so much like Felix. His chest down to his structured stomach that was divided into six down to his waistline and waistband. I FROZEโฆ.. I was brought back to myself by his soft voice โOh my God. Did I scare you?โ He asked softly standing up from the bed โIโm sorry. I just entered the room and I thought I could just sit in the dark to get my head straight. Itโs something I always do. Iโm sorry I made you scaredโ he said smiling obviously forgetting that he isnโt wearing a shirt โI couldnโt breatheโ I giggled nervously โBut why sit in the dark to get your mind in the right place.

Having to work as a writing editor is the most interesting thing to ever happen to me. I never thought Iโd have this happiest part of my life. My so-called marriage was going well; no drama, no problems whatsoever and I was killing at work it couldnโt be any better. โIโll see you after workโ I said to Felix โWait. A friend of mine is having a party tonight and weโll be going over for itโ he said with a warm tone โWeโll be going shopping so Iโll come get you later on. I suggest the driver takes you to work today to make things less stressfulโ he said โOh, I didnโt know that I have to work late today so I donโt think Iโll be able to attendโ I said โWhat do you mean by that?โ He asked with a bossy expression โI have to work late because I have some work to get done before the weekend starts and thatโs tonightโ I said with confidence โIโm not asking you, Iโm telling you. Iโll come pick you up and we get whatever we have to get and we go for the party whatever work you have to do s
Danaโs POVAs I sat down on my couch, sighing and thinking of my life and how God decided to make things difficult for my twenty four year old self I was brought back to life by my ringing phoneโWhere the hell are youโ my only friend and coworker, Claire yelled through the phoneโIโm on my way, thereโs a lot of trafficโ I lied โBe fast or else you know whatโ she said almost yelling I ran through the door as fast as I could knowing Iโm putting my job at risk, I hailed a taxi and got in telling the driver the address, looking at how the crowd outside bubbled and the lights as beautiful as ever I only thought one thing โWHY ME?โMy life was going the wrong way and I knew my ruthless boss at work might either fire me before I entered or yell at me throughout the night. Although quitting would have helped my peace a little, itโll be the worst decision of my life because thereโs nowhere I could run to I got down from the taxi and took a deep breath Whatโs the worst that can happen I
Felix POVโNo mom I donโt necessarily have to get married to have a child, I just need a childโ I said all blunt giving my mom the โleave me alone lookโ. I was sick and tired of my mom pestering me for a wife, I mean after everything my dad put her through she still expects me to get married?I mean itโs not like Iโll put my wife through hell like he did but I have a phobia for marriage and commitment. I canโt even picture myself in one โCommitment is a waste of timeโ I always say to myself โYou need someone to look after you my darling, someone special who will let you loosen up a bit and not that girl whatโs her name again?โMayaโshe spluttered with disgust and annoyance Maya was my ex-girlfriend from almost a decade back but we still โplay aroundโ from time to time. My momโs undying hatred for her makes her look very ugly even though she has nice curves and a fine face but truthfully an irritating personality. โCan I go to work nowโ I said walking towards the door I love my mo
***We walked out of the bar and I instantly noticed a black shining car that shined brighter than my present life and I couldnโt help but widen my eyes and scream when the โhandsome manโ beside me opened the car with a small remote in his hand. He truly is wealthy as he looks I said to myself We walked towards the opened car and as I got in I sat on the most soft and comfortable seat ever, although a car seat, it was as soft as a five-star hotel bed. After about twenty five minutes of driving without saying a word to each other, we got to a fancy restaurant. He was a gentleman and he opened the door for me, I felt ashamed because I wasnโt dressed for dinner at a fancy restaurantโWhy didnโt you say we were coming to a place like this, Iโm not dressed for this placeโ I couldnโt even look up because of how I shy and ashamed I was โIt doesnโt matter, you look okayโ he said without any emotion and I couldnโt even blush at his compliment because it sounded like an insult. I looked at
I felt very uneasy as I heard his deep voice on the other end of the line, after hesitating I had to answer because my life depended on my decision and the powerful billionaire had no time to waste. โUhhh Iโve made my decisionโ I said barely speaking โI need this so Iโll go through itโ I said nervously On my way to my momโs house, the only thing that was on my mind was how to explain to her the whole situation I found myself in. I didnโt want to make her worry nor did I want her to think itโll be a contract marriage. I got to her place, she looked and felt better than she was the last time I saw her and although happy I was shocked.โHey babyโ my momโMrs Annabel Joseker said smiling as she always does whenever she sees me โMama you look different from two days agoโ I said with a smile but with utmost concernโI called you to tell you what happened but then you said you were coming over so I said to wait for youโ she said, still smiling. โA young lady brought me my complete medica
Felix's car stood in front of his exquisite mansion and everything I saw was intriguing from the gates down to everything in the compound of the mansion. I gasped when I entered inside I had something to say about every single thing I saw from the furnitures to the chandeliers. The lighting was the nicest Iโve ever seen. While day dreaming about how my life will be in the mansion I was brought back by a deep soothing voice,โMake yourself comfortable Mrs Baileyโ he said with an unclear tone leaving me confusedโHave I done anything wrong?โ I asked myself โIโll be showing you to your room since itโs your first time hereโ he said walking towards the stairs without looking at me โWhy do you mean โmy roomโ?, we are married I thought weโre supposed to share a room so why do I have a room of my ownโ I looked at him with curiosity and confusion and all the excitement in my face faded awayI had all these images of our wedding night in my head and here this man was telling me about having

I walked into an exorbitant, most beautiful ballroom filled with gorgeous art and music, the lights were breathtaking and the chandelier sitting in a warm embrace shining bright like a diamond. Perhaps it was made of diamonds? I walked into the ballroom, my red dinner gown that swept the floor, my exquisite diamond stones on the dress complimented my diamond handbag which drew so much attention and stares. Felix had earlier gotten me a set of jewelry, bag and shoes all diamonds to match my red dress. Walking side by side with my husband, my arm in his, I felt somewhat protected and safe from everything. Although it was just to showcase how โincredibleโ our relationship was and how โamazingโ our marriage was going. I never for once imagined myself being in a gathering with people I see on the news and the ones I read about in articles. I felt important to be distinguished as an โEliteโ. โYou look amazingโ Felix whispered into my ear I could feel the rush in my adrenaline, my face
I canโt believe Iโm still having these feelings. Iโve tried so hard to erase them, Iโve tried so hard to make her hate me but itโs not working. Sheโs not making it easy for me. โWhy did she have to see me in that position?โ I sighed heavily. โIt might be for the betterโ I tried to console myself Walking into my office and seeing Maya made me hate myself even more. How did I accept this girl back into my life? She only brings problems to my life. These feelings are just escalating and itโs making me sick. But I canโt fall in love โNOโ I screamed out loud causing a scene. I managed to boycott every question and stare that came with the scream. โWhat was she doing here?โ A tiny voice that was supposed to sound soothing asked and I only got annoyed and pissed at the situation I found myself in. โWhat if I had just shown how much she makes me feel would we be living happily together?โ I asked myself โNo that wouldnโt have happenedโ I said out loud again thinking it was my inside voi
A huge figure stood in front of me with a deep voice he said โCome downstairs for dinnerโ. I walked down the stairs to a set table for two. I managed to stop my tears and get myself together moreover, what was I expecting from a stranger and a feared one at that. Immediately, I knew that I was on my own and I had to be careful in the house. I woke up with a good feeling and as I opened the curtains, I knew it was going to be a good day. I proceeded with my breakfast, ignored my so-called husband and walked towards the front door. An almost soothing voice from behind calledโฆโWhere are you going?, donโt you think I deserve to knowโ โIโm going to my momโs and Iโll be spending the day with her and my friendโI saw my mom after a few days of my wedding and we had a lot to talk about because it was a new experience to me. Leaving out the rash part of being married to Felix Bailey, I told my mom everything and we had a nice time together. ***I staggered into Bailey's mansion, my sho
