SCARLETT.

    "How are we going to get ourselves cleaned up, huh?" I asked as I walked towards where my dress lay on the floor. Beads of sweat ran down my body and my hair was plastered against my back. I couldn't find the scrunchie I had used in tying up my hair. 

    Finn was busy searching for it. I stopped and stared at his naked body as he searched the room for it. My eyes darted to his flaccid cock and a small smile filled my face. 

    "I should suck you off right now, Finn,"

    "Fuck no," He said with resolve as he kept searching for the scrunchie. "You must have forgotten that you are the boss and someone might be searching for you right now?"

    I closed my eyes and facepalmed. "Do you know I totally forgot?"

    SCARLETT. As soon as he left, I knew today was going to be a useless day for me. Immediately, I picked up my purse and phone and walked out of my office. I stopped by Abigail's office to tell her I was going to be unavailable today. From the way she looked at me, she must have known that something was wrong but she didn't ask. She only nodded and wished me a nice day. I walked out of her office and made a beeline for Finn's cubicle. I pushed his door open to see him reading the same magazine I had met him reading this morning. "Is this what you do here all day?" I asked as I flung my purse into the chair before placing a hand on my hip. He shrugged. "Yeah. No one brings any tasks to my table, so I use this time to educate myself and broaden my fashion and cosmetic knowledge." "Impressive. Never took you for a book nerd," He leaned back against his seat and shrugged. "There's a

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   56. Tired Of Waiting

    FINN. After waiting for over five hours for Scarlett to return, I became worried. I didn't know how to find her and it seemed she had turned on the do-not-disturb feature on her phone. She seemed upset when she came into my office and I hadn't had the time to ask why.Well, I had the time. I just wasn't in the mood. Once the clock struck half past four, I decided that I was tired of waiting for her. I had to find her or something. Going towards the elevator, I met Abigail. She was talking with Omar. "Hey, Abby," I stopped. "Have you any idea where your boss went? I haven't seen her all day." Abby shook her head. "I have no idea. She told me she's going to be unavailable for the whole of today," "Have you tried calling her?" Abigail laughed. "Calling her is like pouring water on a rock. Whenever she says she's unavailable, she always is. Calls don't go through and texts

    FINN. Engagement, huh? So they were getting engaged soon. That was why she has been acting weird. I dropped her phone back on the couch and followed her into the laundry room where I pulled off my clothes. I took a clean towel and wrapped it around my waist before stepping out of the laundry room. The rain had stopped but from the way thunder rumbled in the distance, I knew it was still going to rain again. I found Scarlett standing in the living room with her phone in her hand. She looked really upset. It had to be that text her father sent to her. Sighing, I walked towards her. I pulled her into my arm and kissed the crook of her neck. "You smell really nice. Forgot to tell you today," She smiled and slipped her phone into her pocket. "You smell nice too. In a masculine way." "Hmm... You look upset. What's wrong?" "Upset?" She laughed. "No, I am not. I'm just really tired and all. From everything that happened today. Kelvin and his impromptu visit."

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   58. Come Back, Finn

    SCARLETT. I woke up to my phone buzzing on my lap. It was still three am in the night and I wondered who could be sending me a text by now. Picking up my phone, I turned it on to see a text message from none other than Kelvin. Why the fuck was he texting me? And just like that, my mood turned sour. I gently pulled away from Finn's hold, hoping that somehow he wouldn't wake up. He didn't. I climbed out of the bed and padded my way across the room. I gently unlocked the door and left the room to the living room. He had sent this text minutes ago so I knew he was still awake. I dialed his number and he picked up after the third ring. "Hello, future wife," I heard the thick sarcasm in his voice and my fists clenched. I wished I had actually learned boxing when my ex-boyfriend back in high school suggested it. It would have come in handy right now. But no, I had chickened out because I believed it was a masculine thing to do. "Can you stop addressing me

    FINN. I woke up as early as five the next morning. Scarlett was still asleep but as soon as she noticed I was no longer on the bed, she whined and called after me. "Where are you, Finn?" I smiled and walked back to her bed with my shirt in my hand. "Here, Scar. I am getting ready to go back. I'll get changed and return before eight." She opened her eyes and turned to face me. She looked so beautiful even with her sleepy face. Her hair fanned out behind her and her arm fell on the side of her waist. She was effortlessly sexy this morning. The duvet sparsely covered her body. Her feet peeked out from underneath the duvet, showing off her cherry-red toenails. She stared at me with a small smile on my face as I drew my slacks up to my waist. Just as I was about to button up, she spoke. "Take them off," I stopped for a brief moment. "Are you being serious right now? You just watched me put them on and now you want me to take them off?" She threw back her c

    SCARLETT.I was happy today. I knew why. I welcomed it. I didn't know settling things with Finn could bring this much peace. Yesterday, I had felt really uncomfortable, like there was a heavy weight in my chest and as soon as he agreed to come back, it was lifted off immediately and I felt relieved.Today was a really busy day for me. To take my mind off my problems, I immersed myself in work. During lunch break, I stayed back to make a few calls and after lunch, I decided to take a break. Finn was still in his office, reading a book. I went in and snatched the book from his hand before dumping it on the table beside him. He sighed and looked up at me. "What's up, Scar? I was just reading a very juicy part of this magazine. History of fashion or whatever it's called—""We're going out for lunch.""Huh?" He asked with his brows raised in askance. "You heard me. We're going out for lunch. I missed lunch,"Nodding he folded the page he was reading into a dog eat and stood to his feet

    FINN. I was still in the cubicle, waiting and wondering what was taking her so long when I heard a knock on the door. It had to be Teyanna. She was the last person I wanted to see right now. I had told her several times that I wasn't interested in anything she had to offer. It wasn't Teyanna standing before me when I opened the door. It was Scarlett and she looked terribly upset. "Scar, what's wrong?" I asked with concern as I pulled her into the office and shut the door. I made sure to lock it before pulling her into my arms. "Something went wrong, right?" She began to sniffle. Her fingers dug into my suit and she began to sob. "Hey, hey," I whispered, pulling away for a few seconds. She was really crying. I led her to my desk and took a seat before turning her face to look at me. "What's wrong?" "They're serious. I thought it was just something they were using to scare me. But I am really getting engaged to Kevin! I feel like my chest is going to expl

    FINN. Throughout the drive to the boutique, Scarlett chattered about everything and nothing. I knew she was doing it to stop herself from thinking too much about whatever was going to happen and I also engaged her while cracking some jokes. It got to a point where she went eerily silent, staying quiet for as long as five minutes. I knew she was deep in thought but I said nothing. "I wonder where she's taking me to," Scarlett said as we drove into a boulevard. I followed his mother's car down a street filled with different luxury shops. She stopped at the last shop at the far end of the street and swerved into the parking lot. I slowed the car down into a cruise before turning to look at her. "Are you sure you want to do this, Scarlett?" She laughed. "Like, I have any option? Let's drive in, please. I have no say in this as it is." Nodding, I drove into the parking lot and parked right behind her car. Just as I shut the engine and stepped out from the car, Sca

    THIRD PERSON’S POV "You know, it would do no damage if you told me where you were going that night," Scarlett asked as she leaned back on the lounge close to the pool area, hands on her belly, watching as Finn flipped steak on the grill. It had been three months now and that question had gone unanswered. No excuse for the lie Finn told could exonerate him. He turned towards her and sighed. "If you worry less about that night and more about the babies we are to have in less than six months, it'd be a good thing." She sat up. "Really? My husband sneaking out of the house late at night when he's supposed to fuck me the next morning doesn't deserve an answer?" Finn blew out a heavy breath and flipped the steak again before he turned to look at her, both hands on his hip. He looked really funny in the apron he was wearing. "I am starting to believe that the only reason you keep asking me this question is because I should have been fucking you instead of sneaking out of

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   159. Married To Finn

    SCARLETT. Worst day of my life. I didn't want to think of how things had gone this morning; how I had cried several times and ruined my makeup. How I had yelled at everyone, not minding if they were just there to do their jobs. None of the bridesmaids were my friends. I had told my friends I didn't want them to be bridesmaids when I was getting married to a man I hated the most. Wasn't it weird to be married to another man while going through a heartbreak from another to whom you had confessed your feelings to and he had done the same? Things were only going to get shittier from here and my parents were to blame. I hadn't spoken to either of them and as my father curled his arm for me to slip mine through, I cursed the day I was born into this family. I should have been poor and less privileged. Maybe Finn and I would have gotten married. I wondered what he was doing now. Happy with his family, on his way to falling in love with another woman who wasn't as problematic as

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   158. Like My Father

    FINN. I'd gotten to the verge of telling her that I was her groom. It had taken a lot of restraint for me to actually walk away. As I drove towards the warehouse, I stared at the bag she had returned to me and sighed. I hated to put her in this position but that was it. After dealing with Kelvin tomorrow, I was to see the designer in charge of my wedding tux to get it fitted. It was going to be a long day for me tomorrow. As soon as I got to the warehouse, one of the guards standing by the entrance of the warehouse hurried towards me and bowed. "Boss, they are all waiting inside for you." Was I ever going to get used to being addressed as boss and treated like one? Because why did it feel a little weird that this man was treating me like a god? My father must have really had a huge impact on them for them to show me this much respect, age regardless. The warehouse was filled with people. Some worked on cars, and some sat around tables with drinks in front of them,

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   157. The Perfect Gem

    SCARLETT. All day, I waited for Finn to return with mixed feelings. What if something went wrong again? Wasn't he going to see Raya? He was supposed to be back in about three hours. But it was seven hours already and quite late. I had tried distracting myself with movies but then, my father had sent a text, telling me that my wedding dress was ready and would be delivered on my wedding day because he didn't want me ruining it. What the hell was going on? When I sent him a text, informing him that I was no longer getting married and that I didn't care if he was going to take all that I had, I didn't get a response. Calling him was futile because he didn't even pick up my call. I had to call my mother, who informed me that everything happening right now was out of her control. I had been infuriated by her words but that was it, I guess. I had spent the rest of the day fuming and waiting for Finn to return so I could narrate my ordeal to him. I was in the

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   156. Good Progress

    FINN. For someone who I had believed was so powerful and controlling and could do anything he liked, Scarlett's father could really be humbled. After he had asked me to wait, he had led me to his study, his demeanor changing from one of scorn to the utmost respect. It was really amusing to see him humbled. We spoke for minutes and he decided that we had to work together. I hadn't made it easy for him anyway. I kept throwing jabs of how much of a terrible father he had been to Scarlett. "Finn, I know all of these," He had said at one point. "But I had to do certain things because she was my only child. If I hadn't been hard on her, she wouldn't be where she is today." "By that, you mean being aware that she was molested when she was a teenager and you did nothing about it? Going ahead to get her married to the same man who molested her when she was young. That's how you thought you were training her?" I asked, my voice laced with disgust. "You really did a bad job

    FINN. I watched as she slept in my arms. We had talked after our kiss and she'd told me how she'd been at the therapist's twice this week and was getting better. I was so proud of her. She could actually do without me having to be there. She was becoming a better version of herself and I was extremely glad that I was there to witness it. I was never going to let her leave my side. She belonged to me now and it felt refreshing to know that this woman loved me as much as I did and had, in fact, loved me for a long time. Things were starting to fall into place. Meeting her was a miracle. I had to admit that to myself. Ignoring the ups and downs, she was really a blessing to me. Somehow, she has made me a better version of myself to her and my family. With her, I'd been able to afford a whole lot and I found out the truth about my father's life and how he was killed. I couldn't tell her. This was top secret but there was someone else I could tell. Someone who knew

  • The Billionaire's Outrageous Addiction   154. That I Love You

    SCARLETT. I had been pacing about the living room when I caught a glimpse of a black, matte Maserati stopping in front of my house. I had paused, wondering who it was, and when a familiar figure came out of the car, dressed impeccably and looking like he hadn't gone through a series of tortures from the man I hated most in the world, my heart flew. The glass of brandy I had been holding slipped into my hand and crashed to the floor as I burst into a fit of tears while still running toward him. Just as I opened the door, he was there, standing before me with a smile and I just knew, I just knew I had to tell him everything. I just knew he meant a lot to me. We were seated on one of the couches and I couldn't just take my hands off him. I touched his face, searched his hands for any form of bruises, and even had to pull his chest up. I covered a hand over my mouth and more tears slipped down my cheeks when I saw the red marks, he had gotten from being constantly electro
