That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game A Wedding In Two Days.
NATASHA. “ Natasha Caspian, calm down! I have done all I can, yet you are still up about this.” How do I calm down? How can I? It feels like a part of me has been snatched. How do I relax when I know he's going to be in someone's arm by Friday? “ Mom is that all you have to say or do? Are you for real right now? I should calm down? What do you think Jason's father would say if he was still alive? Are you going to sit here and fold your arms?” “ What do you expect me to do, Nat? What do you expect me to do? Should I drag Jason over here and have you both married myself?” She rolled her eyes at me and went on scrolling through her phone about the news of Jason's wedding to that little girl. “ Yes! As a matter of fact, I expect you to march to his office and give him a thousand and one reasons why he can't marry anyone else asides me!” She sneered. “ Like it's that easy, hahaha. Are you even listening to yourself? Are you? At this point
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game “Past 4pm, Sir.”
Jason. “ Sir, it's past 4 pm.” Zoe had taken it upon herself to come over to the office and chastise me for still being in the office working my fingers off. With my fingers moving at breakneck speed, I answered her. “ Okay? What's the issue? It's not yet time to close up, or is it?” The company closes at 5pm, but I hang around till 7pm. She steps into my office and stands like a mom ready to scold her son. Without taking those eyes off me, she proceeded to remind me. “ It's Thursday, sir.” I get it, Zoe. I get all the hint, but I'm not planning on making it easy for her. “ Okay? And so what? What does the day of the week gotta do with what time I close from work?” That simple statement earned me a death warrant. “ CEO Jason Black, I came here to remind you that the time is past 4pm and it's a bright, sunny Thursday. Shouldn't a groom-to-be be home early so he can get as much rest in anticipation of his big day tomor

MADELYN. “ What's rightfully yours? I think there's a mistake somewhere, cause this handsome man over here is mine sweetheart. Or wait a minute,” with mouth agape, I turn to Jason and ask, “ Didn't you tell her, darling?” This was so much fun. I loved teasing Natasha. I always loved how she reacted towards the bait I always use. It's so sad to see a pretty young girl of her age running after a man that would never look her way. I wonder how love-starved a person would become, for it to get to this extent. I genuinely felt sympathetic for whoever birthed such a desperate, shameless lady. “ Madelyn or whatever they call you, I'm just here to sound a warning. Whether or not Jason is getting married, he still belongs to me. I will be back to claim him. Do me a favor would you, enjoy this while it lasts. I assure you it's not going to last for long.” “ Really? Oh no, I'm scared. Jason, did you hear that? I'm so terrified. Please Natasha, please spare
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game The Night Before My Wedding
MADELYN. The night before my wedding was a memorable one. Jason and I had agreed on the no bachelor and bachelorette party. It would just be us spending the night awake with our kids and Grandma. That's if she doesn't fall asleep though, that lady loves her sleep! “ Mommy, you and daddy are gonna be married?” With the excitement building up in them, they never bring their selves to believe it. It's more like living in denial of it, and being pumped up about it, at the same fucking time. “ Yes princess, your mom and I would be getting married tomorrow. Wanna tag along?” Jason winks at me and our kids didn't find it funny. Seriously? Tag along? Like shut your mouth dude, we gonna be there and watch you both get married. If we ain't there, there's gonna be no wedding. He always addresses our daughters as princesses. It's heartwarming to see how much he loves and dotes on them. They can tell him anything, and everything. I like how he has ma

NATASHA. I sat on the couch in the living room, watching one TV show or the other and sulking like a miserable loser. “ You are still awake I see. Mind telling me why?” She knows the reason why. It's Thursday night for heaven's sake. My man would be getting married tomorrow. Not to me, but someone else. Y'all don't really expect me to sleep. “ Listen to me, I know for a fact that Jason and his wife are sleeping peacefully at their crib right now. But guess who can't shut her eyes? Natasha Caspian.” I rolled my eyes at her and stuffed the popcorn in my mouth. I have been doing this for hours now; watching TV shows, stuffing popcorn in my mouth and wiping my tears off with tissues. “ Can I go get you more tissues?”My mom volunteered and I gave her a go-ahead. She was no doubts feeling sorry for me at the moment. I look like a mess, I do know that. “ Crying or counting how many hours till dawn won't help, Natasha. Take it from
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Surprise!
It's finally that moment I have been waiting for. That warm, soul-filling and heart-fluttering moment when you realize the wealthiest, drop dead gorgeous CEO Jason Black wants to spend the rest of his next six months with you. Few hours more and I would be in my white wedding dress, under the white arch surrounded by my favorite white lilies. I think the best part of it being your wedding day, is that you get a free ticket to be genuinely happy. No regrets, no negative energy, no past incidents that you have to reflect upon. Just undiluted happiness that runs deeper than what's displayed on your face. It runs deep into your veins and is circulated around your entire system. Nervous? Not at all. I wasn't tensed or having this fear of what would happen after today, I was just extremely cheerful. My wedding is set to begin by 12pm at noon. Yes, as early as that cause Jason wanted me to get enough rest before the after party which would start around 5pm and probabl
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Love Fever
CARA. “ Well, what do we do next dad?” That question was asked days ago and I recall his reply, “ We attend your sister's wedding.” Here we are. Jason made it much more easier for us. He reached out first before dad could get to him. We actually planned finding our back into her life through the apology we were going to render. “ Dear Madelyn, please accept my apology. It's from the deepest part of my heart.” “ You fool. I swear on mom's tomb, if I was Madelyn and you offered me such bullshit as an apology, I'mma stay angry with you for the rest of my life. That's 0.05 out of 10, Craig. Do better!” The idiot had one knee on the floor with his hand stretched. “ I even skipped this part, why are you on your knees like that? You sure should go ahead and add another ring to her finger!” Dad had placed me in charge of the apology rendering section, which is hilarious by the way, but I also cannot afford to screw it up. What I was more pissed abo

MADELYN. Sweaty palms, rising anxiety and a whole different heart beating wildly in my chest. Before arriving at the wedding ceremony, I was sure that nothing would go wrong. I had on the brightest smile, not because of the pictures to be taken for the media, but because I was genuinely happy. People might find it strange that I choose to be happy about getting married to someone who I wasn't in love with, but there was just this joy that comes with being a bride. Whether or not you are getting married to a man who is going to sign the divorce papers after six months, the excitement would still be there. My father led me down the aisle. Craig was looking superb in his tuxedo which almost stole the spotlight from the groom. Dad looked really nice in his suit, and my lips happened to be hurting from smiling too frequently and too broadly. Did I leave out my little diamonds? Not at all. They all looked stunning in their suits and gowns. Jason couldn't

That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game A Bad Feeling
Madelyn Cara had called me on her way to Nicholas's house. After what Jason had said yesterday, I came to the conclusion that something was wrong. Maybe he had found out who it was that Cara always met with, or perhaps he was going to change the plan. “ I'm sorry. Jason found out on his own, I never told him. He's right beside me, you can ask him yourself.” Cara bellowed, “ I believe you. I and Jason are not best of friends yet, I don't want to to talk to him. Anyways, I will keep you updated on whatever happens at Nicholas's house.” I had a bad feeling, but I couldn't just say it out. I wanted to ask her to come right to us. Why not end this game and seek protection from Jason? I'm sure my husband would do anything I ask of him, even if it included taking my sister in. “ Be safe, Cara. I don't feel good about this.” She tried to lighten my mood. “ Have you eaten? You will feel much better when you eat, Madelyn.” “ You will be pregnant someda
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Pick Your Type Of Death.
CARA { Warning: Content unsuitable for young readers. This novel is R-18.} Before I could make up my mind about what I was going to do, Nicholas jerked me against him and claimed my mouth in a fierce kiss that made me gasp, then tense. His tongue slipped between my lips, and without wanting to, I opened up for him, parted my lips, wrestled his tongue with mine. My hands found their way into his hair, tugging, raking, wanting him closer and at the same time wanting to shove him away. We always had good sex, but he always made it excruciating. It was either I get whipped during sex or after it. Slipping the vibrating phone into his pocket, he picked me up. My sister called a thousand times before she gave up. Nicholas's dark eyes watched me, something hungry and furious gleaming in their depth. “ I don't want to hurt you, Cara, but you brought this upon yourself. You could have patiently worked with me, after today you would have become a free woman. I would ha

NICHOLAS It's the D-Day. That was all that ran through my head as I took a cold shower. I was more happier for the birth of Madelyn than she was for herself. My outfits were laid out on the bed and though, it was still too early to set out, I went through the list of things we needed, to make sure that we didn't skip a thing. The main reason I was up early was to think about my next move. I knew something was off with Cara, but since I haven't caught her yet, I couldn't accuse her of snitching on me. I knew she was seeing someone yesterday, my men had said they saw her with a strange lady whose face they weren't able to make out. I decided to come see what she was up to, but I was late and those dumb fools said they didn't know when the strange lady left. They saw her make her way for the bathroom, but that was it. She never returned to her seat. She made use of the backdoor. How smart of her. I bumped into Cara on her way out. She wasn't surprised to see m
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Contagious Love
Madelyn It's my birthday, today. What is it people usually say? Something like the day God brought me into the world for y'all. My husband was up early. When I woke up, he wasn't beside me. Where could he have gone to this early in the morning? Jason was one patient lover. He took his time to explain everything to me yesterday. I can now agree that I'm naive. How come I never thought that plans could be changed? “ Who is it?” someone knocked on the door. I was still in my nighties and I still haven't left my bed. “ Grandma Lorelei asked that you come with me, ma'am Madelyn.” I quickly checked the mirror to see if I had drooled in my sleep. I straightened my hair and strolled out. “ Good morning, Laura.” The maid greeted me with a warm hug. Yes, I hug my maids. At first, they were uncomfortable with it. I knew just what my husband was capable of doing if he found out I was hugging our maids. But, they are humans too. They deserved to be loved and respe
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game The Mastermind Behind All This
JASON I hurried home and waited for Madelyn. I noticed she had been going out more and her movements were usually discreet. Whenever I asked where she was off to, she would smile and say she only needed to check out some restaurant in town. At first, it was understandable since she was always craving food. But today, I noticed how weirdly she dressed. It's like she was trying to disguise. Over the week she became a very huge fan of scarfs and sunshades and over sized clothing. I knew something wasn't right, so I decided to follow her today and find out where it was she always went, or who she always visited. I have never thought my wife would ever cheat on me, but that was the first thought that came to mind. She didn't have any friends in the city, so who was it that she always visited? I followed the cab she was in. She would never know it was me cause I went on bike, and I had my helmet on. Madelyn stopped at a restaurant just as she had told me,
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game A Day To The Big Day
CARA A day to the big Day. I was running around making last minute preparations. I have to meet with Madelyn today to inform her of all our plans. Or better still, I could call her. Nicholas asked that we all meet at our usual spot. Natasha called to let us know she would be late, her mom had fallen ill. All Nicholas could ever think of was how we should make this work and not about some sick person. “ Listen to me, I don't care if your mom is dying. I want you here on time, we can't have you mess up our big Day. Is this what would happen tomorrow? What? You call and inform us that your mom had a heart attack? See you by 12pm, Natasha.” That was harsh but it would be better to see this two turn against each other. They were the ones calling the shots in this game, and I needed a sort of division between them. “ Do you think she's trying to bail at the last minute? It might be that she doesn't want to go ahead with this, that's why she keeps bringing
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Weird Cravings
JASON A week later after the incident with Black's body, it was my wife's birthday tomorrow. As excited as I was, I was frightened something might go wrong at the party. “ Birthday girl, you look stunning, wife.” Madelyn walked up to me, her smile widened with each passing second. “ It's been a long, long ride Jason. I'm glad we came this far.” “ Do you want a massage? Are you having any of those weird cravings of yours?” I didn't know being pregnant came with a lot of responsibilities. We were just three weeks gone, and I have never been more at loss for the perfect words to describe this whole new feeling. Was this what men went through at the hands of their pregnant wives? Wasn't it a bit too early for her to start having weird cravings? Madelyn never spared me at all. She would wake me up at past 2am and ask me to go get her some sea food. Who the fuck wants seafood at that time of the night? Was it the baby who was demanding for all this or was it my
That One Night, Mr. CEO; A Lifetime Game Beginning Of The War
Rebecca ( Natasha's Mom) Continuation of flashback.It seemed like the end of the world for Caspian. I could have sworn I saw him shed a tear. He looked lost. I should look the same too considering I had just broken up with my boyfriend who I thought I'd be getting married to, but, no one felt much pain like Caspian. Grandma Lorelei warned me. Caspian had a raging temper. He had been in and out of a rehabilitation facility. She said he was just starting to make progress when Melissa came into his life. Over the last couple of months, his anger issues has been kept on check. But now, Black ruined it all. The furious, venomous dark creature made a mess of his room. We could all hear the noise coming from Caspian's room, but neither his mom or brother could dare trying to stop him. “ We should go check on him, grandma. No one deserves to be in such..” Lorelei grabbed my hands and made me promise I'd keep my distance from Caspian, for now. “ When he's like t

NATASHA'S MOM I hurried home after I saw Grandma Lorelei leave. I was heartbroken. It's clear she was the only one that visited yesterday. Why couldn't anyone find a clue, a hint, anything at all? “ Argh!!” I yelled, almost ripping my lungs out as I threw something to the wall. I have been getting more fiery these days and I threw objects more frequently too. If I continue at this rate, I'd have broken almost every object in the house. “ Why have you been so angry the past few days, mom?” My daughter asked from the dinning table. I didn't even notice she was there all throughout. It was just 8am. She was not yet dressed, so I guess she's taking the day off. I had a quick flashback about how last night ended and I felt nothing but guilt for the way I treated her. It was not the best thing to do. I know that too well but I couldn't keep it in no more. She needed to hear a few unkind words, maybe it might help faster. She was too self-centered, and cared abou
