Mara

I was so shocked to see Dylan here and by this time, he almost startled me. He was drop-dead handsome and his lips, gosh! I was left drooling harder.

Tessa did say he was the flirty type and he hardly commits to women for anything serious, I might as well fuck him and move on. And yes, before you say anything, I'm naughty and flirty as well, and I guess that makes the two of us then.

"I'm here to see you," he said calmly, snapping me out of my reverie.

"Me, Why?" I questioned curiously.

"I'm- I'm… I want us to talk, what's your weekend like? I would want us to talk over dinner" he said, stuttering this time, leaving me confused.

"Like a dinner date?" I asked with a smirk plastered on my face.

"Yes, a dinner date, that's if you don't mind" he muttered.

Did he just ask me that, of course silly, I obviously don't mind, I can't possibly turn down his hot ass, I wanted this as much as he does and what does he want to talk about? That question kept lingering in my head.

    TessaI gazed at the stars from the balcony of my room, the peaceful ambiance gave me warmth. I was much more relieved after speaking with Mara, as crazy as she can be, she just knows the right things to say to me, to make me feel better.My mind slowly drifted off to Aaron, the tension in the room earlier when he came to check up on me and during dinner was crazy, I've tried to control my emotions but I can't just help but always stare at him.All I've ever wished for was to love and be loved in return but sadly I'm head over heels for a man who only sees me as his substitute wife.I never thought I would be caught up in a one-sided love but here I am, drooling over a man that doesn't give a flying fuck about me. It's funny how men drool over my beauty and my body whenever I step out and then there's Aaron who doesn't.Though I noticed that Aaron has been unusually calm and gentle with me for some time now, he no longer gives me those death stares and he talks to me these days unlike

    Aaron I had accepted to work with Alexander Cooper, but after much hesitation, I finally made up my mind to let him work with me.I still couldn't shake off the night I saw him dancing and holding Tessa, knowing fully well that Tessa was drunk, he always takes advantage of people, that was the same thing he did to Lisa, he drugged her and almost raped her.He knew I was going to come for him, so, he ran out of the country and left his businesses behind, I bet he lost so many deals at the time. And now, he's back to spite me.After Lisa went missing, I thought he had a hand in Lisa's disappearance, my men went after him and after all the investigation he wasn't the culprit. Then if he's not the culprit then who is? And why haven't my men been able to find her? Did Lisa intentionally go missing because she didn't want to get married to me like Dylan said? No, of course not, Lisa loves me and wouldn't do anything to hurt me. Then why can't I find her?I was going crazy about the situa

    Alexander I was surprised when Aaron agreed that I handled his construction project, I had doubts that he would accept initially but he freaking accepted.I never thought that my plans of getting close to Tessa through Aaron would be this easy, I smirked and gulped down the content in the glass of wine that I was holding.Aaron had just paved the way for me to go after his wife without even knowing, I can't wait to see the look on his face when I finally make Tessa mine, he claims to be powerful and ruthless but yet he's easily blinded by love, he made a great mistake when he accused me of trying to rape that silly girlfriend of his, he made me go into hiding because he made everyone believe that I was a rapist, he even went as far as accusing me of her disappearance.He choose to believe that lying, and a cheat of a woman, who doesn't care about anyone else but herself, I easily lured her to my bed all because of money, greedy bitch, Aaron was the richest man in the city, who is env

    Aaron I came back home and didn't meet Tessa in the living room waiting for me like she always does."Welcome home sir" I heard Leilani's voice as she walked into the living room. "Hmmm," I hummed and made to take my leave but stopped and turned, facing her."Where is Tessa?" I asked softly."She's been waiting for you but she's in her room now, she said I should let her know when you get home, I will just go and let her know that you're back now," Leilani said calmly.I nodded and left.I got to my room, took a shower, and changed into something casual. I was working on my laptop when I heard a knock on the door, I raised an eyebrow and let the person in.The door cracked open and Tessa walked in, looking ravishing in the nightwear she was wearing, my heart was racing faster than l could imagine.It has always been like that these past few months, my heart would race faster whenever Tessa is around me, I don't know what this is but I can't control the way I act whenever I see her,

    TessaI hurriedly left Aaron's room and entered my room, he didn't say anything, he just stared at me till l left.A smile crossed my lips as I lay down on my bed, I didn't know why I ran off like that, it just felt so surreal that Aaron would kiss me and honestly I wanted it too, I enjoyed every bit of it."Gosh! What was I thinking, I shouldn't have run off like that" I screamed inwardly. I wanted this as much as he does but I didn't want to be just a rebound girl to him, I wanted more and Aaron obviously sees me as his substitute wife that he will definitely toss away when he finds the woman he loves. But then again, he had a sincere look on his face when he kissed me, he looked like he had waited all his life for that moment but he doesn't even like me, gosh! I don't even know what to think anymore. I shrugged back to my bed and my mind went back to the kiss, it was magical and it felt so good, I knew Aaron was not as mean as he acted, the way he laughed with me back there in hi

    Tessa"Wait what?" Mara screamed, staring at me."I know, I shouldn't have but it was a lot to take in at the time, plus I just don't want to be his rebound girl or something, I want more, Mara," I said outrightly.Mara gazed at me, bearing an understanding look, she stretched out her hands and took my hands, patting them softly."I know T, and I understand. Don't worry I'm sure he doesn't know how lucky he is to have you as a wife, did you guys talk about it?" she asked, flashing me a smile."Well, I haven't seen him, I woke up late and by the time I did, he had gone to work but then he gave Leilani a note to give me, he booked a spa section and lunch for me" I retorted, my face beaming with smiles. "Oh! That's so sweet, these two best friends are obviously the sweetest, I mean, Dylan had an outfit delivered to me and then Aaron booked you a spa section and lunch, gosh!" she half screamed, placing her hand on her chest in the most dramatic way I've ever seen which elicited a chuckle

    DylanI watched the look on Aaron's face as he talked about Tessa, the spark in his eyes was undeniably visible, this was the same person who couldn't stand Tessa and her guts, I just knew he liked her, just took him long enough to realize it."You both are friends now huh?" I asked with a smirk plastered on my face.Aaron glared at me and gulped down the contents in his glass, he was struggling to bottle up his feelings, his eyes gleaming so hard."You don't really need to answer that, your eyes and expression already gave you away, but what happens to "I don't want her around" I teased, using my fingers to emphasize more on what I was saying.He looked at me and smirked, he poured himself another drink and furrowed his eyebrows at me."She's my wife, Dylan, aren't we supposed to be friends?" he questioned with a smirk on his face."Well, the last time I checked, you couldn't stand her guts and boldness, what changed?" I asked, glaring at him.He gazed at me and smirked without sayin

    DylanThe next morning, I slowly turned, my eyes still shut as a smile crossed my lips, I used my hand to touch the other side of the bed but then, there was no one there, I opened my eyes instantly to discover that Mara wasn't there.I stood up from the bed, I thought she might be in the bathroom, I checked the bathroom and she wasn't there either, that was when I discovered that her clothes that were on the floor weren't there. She's gone, I slowly muttered, bearing a blank expression.I walked back to the bed and sat down, wondering why she left without telling me or even drop a note."Did I do something wrong?" I queried inwardly, I walked to where my clothes were and took my phone from my back pocket to call her, I need to know why she left like that and if she got home safely.Her phone rang multiple times and she didn't pick up, I shrugged back to the bed, worried sick but then my mind drifted off to last night, it was one hell of a crazy night, I've never enjoyed being intimat

How where you able to pull this off without any loopholes?" she asked, unable to hide her excitement."I try," I retorted, smiling back at her.Dylan's face gleamed as he stared deep into Mara's eyes.

Every kid wants a happy family.As we walked to the school parking lot. Zoey chimed in. "Mommy? Are you and Daddy friends now?"Her question throws me off a little. But quickly I recovered and offered a warm smile. "Yes, baby. We're friends. You like that, don't you?"She nods excitedly. "Does that mean Daddy doesn't have to go home after putting us to sleep?" she asked, her voice bubbly.I furrowed my eyebrows, a smile tugged at my lips.

I never really liked her. Now, I know why. Such a cunning bitch," Eleanor breathed, letting out a deep sigh."Aaron, are you alright?" Eleanor asked, her gaze shifting to Aaron.Aaron nods."Don't stress it. I have to go now. Sure you're good?" Eleanor asked, her voice soft.Aaron nods again, giving her a small smile. "Yeah,"Eleanor leans over Aaron and kissed his cheeks. "That's a relief. Talk to you later,"She throws a smile my way before heading to the door."Today sucks!"

"Oh, stop with the lies, Lisa. You're nothing but a two timing manipulative liar,"Okay now, I'm taken aback by Dylan's words. I knew he never liked Lisa and never shied away from saying it but this is new, what is he driving at?Lisa's face contorts with rage, her composure shattering like glass. "You never liked me, of course you'd say anything to downgrade me," she taunted.Dylan turns to me. "Your accident was all staged by this bitch, then she swobs in and saves the day, making it look like she saved your life. I try to tell you but you wouldn't listen," Dylan said, his words clear and direct.I'm really confused.

Damn what use to be.I had invited her over, trying to play her little games. I involved everyone, including Tessa and thankfully she didn't decline.I watched Lisa walk into my living room, on a black hoodie, and a shade, looking like she's on the run, a forced smile on her face. "Aaron!" She exclaimed dramatically, taking a seat beside me.Her face falls flat as she didn't get the reaction she expected. She looks at me, waiting for me to speak up.Wanting to play her little tricks, I managed a smile. "So, how's life treating you, Lisa," I ask, my tone more skeptical than genuine.She got the hint."Oh, please. Don't act like you care," she said defiantly.I smirk

The shock, the anxiety, the weight of Alexander's confession– it all comes pouring out."Everything is going to be fine, I assure you," he whispered into my ears.His words are soothing, making my nerves calm a little, but the shock is still there, bubbling under the surface.But for the first time in a long time I want to believe that everything will be fine.Still in Aaron's arms, my mind raced.Why does he have to smell and feel so good?After a moment, I pulled back and wipe my eyes. Being this close with him it's too dangerous with my feelings for him.I looked at him for a while, his eyes are soft and filled with understanding. My expression faltered. Suddenly I felt the need to apologize to Aaron, for refusing to listen and being so stubborn.I can't even begin to imagine what my stubborness would have caused me. My kid's safety!I didn't kn

Quickly he raises his hand, telling his secretary it was okay and she could leave.As his secretary left, he steps in immediately, beating me to it.

Vanessa, Aaron's sister.I've seen her a couple of times on video calls but trust me, she looked way prettier in person, she's just a female version of Aaron.A man walked behind her as she approached me, I figured out that was her husband, he looked calm and gentle.I didn't know how to react at first, especially when I shut her out too. I've been meaning to reach out to her one of these days but I guess fate beat me to it."Vanessa," I called out as my face lights up a little and then it falters as guilt crept in.Vanessa notices and nudges my shoulder. "Hey, it's fine, trust me I understand," she assured.Quickly she turned, facing the tall man behind her, her eyes sparkling. "This is Dante, my husband," she introduced.Turning to me, she added. "This is Tessa, Uhmm, Aaron's wife—-," she stuttered but quickly she rephrase her sentence. "Tessa, the twin's Mom," she concluded sharply.Dante no
