Tessa

My days with Aaron have been blissful so far and I really hoped it would remain that way, sometimes I wonder what will become of me when Aaron finally finds Lisa, I can't even imagine how everything is going to turn out, Aaron has been nothing short of sweet, loving and kind to me but it just felt like I was living the life I've dreamt so much about in a borrowed time.

What happens when Lisa returns?

Why do I feel like I'm going to get hurt at the end? Do I hold back my feelings for him just because of my fears?

I shrugged back to the couch as many questions ran through my head, and then a smile suddenly crossed my lips as I reminisced on how sweet Aaron had been these past few days. He even went as far as making breakfast for me this morning before he left for work, he followed me to my grandmother's house, and even my grandma was quite surprised to see him that day.

He's just an intentional man and he always sweeps me off my feet whenever he does these things.

My mind slo

    Aaron"You cooked?" Vanessa asked surprisingly."What? Am I not allowed to cook for my wife?" I said in my defense."Did you just call her your wife Aaron? Whooah is this my brother? What has she done to you? Like how did you go from hating her to loving her this much?" Vanessa asked, grinning from ear to ear."Love? I don't know about that Vanessa, I just care about her way too much, I don't know if is love yet but what I do know is that there is Lisa whom I used to love and I think I still do, it's crazy" I lamented."Hmmm," Vanessa hummed."Well, I'm sure you know what's best for you and all I can do is support you, I have a confession to make though, but before I say anything, you have to promise me that you won't be mad at me for too long" she said."Out with it already" I responded."You have to promise Aaron" she insisted."Okay, fine. I promise" I said calmly."I spoke with Tessa," she said and paused.I rolled my eyeballs as if l could see her."I know, I know you asked me no

    AaronI couldn't believe my eyes, that Lisa I was looking for over a year was standing before me"Li….Lisa" I called out faintly. She smiled and walked to where I was still standing in shock and engulfed me in a warm hug.I had a lot of things going through my head as she hugged me, I was supposed to be happy that the woman I've been yawning to find for a year was standing right before me and in my arms but no, I had a mixed feelings about her return. She gazed at me as she splitted from the hug."Are you not happy to see me after this past months" she said, bearing a sad look.I glared at her and replied "Of course not Lisa, I'm just overwhelmed and at the same time I have a lot of questions to ask you, I need answers Lisa or don't you think so?" I queried.I watched as tears rolled down her cheeks instantly, she walked slowly to the chair in front of me and sat down."I left because I didn't want them to hurt you, I love you so much Aaron and I can't stand any evil befall you or y

    Tessa I waited patiently for Aaron to come back home, he had promised to be home on time as I requested, I paced around the dining table making sure everything was in order, I made varieties of food, his best meal and some dessert. I smiled in satisfaction as everything was neatly placed in order. I walked back into my room and entered the jacuzzi to have a warm bath, after a few minutes I was done. I had bought a perfect gown for the occasion, a strapless short red gown, and by the time I was done dressing up, I was looking too gorgeous as usual, I smiled as l stared at myself in the mirror. I kept on checking the time and peeping through the window to know if I could see Aaron's car driving in but he was nowhere to be found, I got anxious but decided to calm myself down, maybe he had tons of work in the office, I kept reminding myself. Aaron had promised to be home in two hours like I had requested and he had always kept to his words this past few weeks, he literally does eve

    TessaI woke up the next morning without Aaron lying beside me and I found a short note on the bedside, my face beamed with smiles as I read the note."You look so gorgeous and peaceful when you sleep, I couldn't stop staring baby, now relax and wait for my culinary skills, I will be back shortly"I smiled as I felt butterflies fluttering wildly in my stomach. "Why is Aaron so sweet" I muttered inwardly and then my mind slowly drifted off to what we shared last night, it was intense and magical, more like we both I've waited so long for it.Aaron worshipped my body with so much love and affection, he made love to me while always staring deep into my eyes. That was the best sex I've had, no one has had that kind of effect on me during sex and the way he reacts to my touch, it was something I can't get off my mind.I kept blushing as I thought about how intense our love making was last night that I ended up yawning for more and then the door cracked open and Aaron walked in, carrying a

    LisaI thought Aaron would be happy to see me after all these months, it's been a year since I disappeared and then I return to meet him being cold towards me, this was not the Aaron I used to know.Aaron trust and believes whatever lies I feed him with, he was too in love with me to even see how manipulative I was.I've always being the only person that mattered most to him, he would literally worship the ground I walk on, even when his best friend tried to uncover who I was, he choosed to believe me, he stood up for me in so many ways and now he wants to throw away all that we shared in the past because of that lady.I had him wrapped around my fingers, he used to love me to a fault but everything has changed because of that nitwit he calls a wife. How could Aaron do this to me.I thought leaving the country with Mateo was the best decision because I thought I loved him but turns out he wasn't as rich as Aaron and I find myself wanting my Aaron back. He was not as loving as Aaron wa

    Dylan "How is it going with Alexander? You barely talk about his annoying ass and the project you both are handling" I asked, gazing at Aaron who seemed bothered about something."He's been out of town for a while now, his assistant has been the one sending feedback to me, though I got his text that he's back and that he would want us to meet up" Aaron responded as he gently sipped his drink."Okay, that's fine" I retorted still looking at him."You look bothered Aaron, what's the problem?" I asked.He shrugged and kept a blank expression, more like he was trying to figure out how to tell me."Before we got here, you said you wanted to talk to me about something, but you've refused to say anything since we got here" I questioned.Aaron said nothing, he gazed at me and then poured himself another drink, he gulped it down within a second and then crinkled his eyebrows at me."You won't believe who showed up at my office weeks ago?" he said and paused."Who?" I asked curiously while sip

    Lisa I've thought about how to win Aaron back, how to guilt trip him into accepting me back and throwing that bitch out of his house. I got his message, saying he wants to meet up in his office, I guess he had made up his mind on what to do and I feel like that decision does not include me. I just feel it in my bones that he wants to ditch me and stay with that wrench of a wife, but if he thinks I can accept rejection without a struggle, then he doesn't know what's coming for him, good thing I was the first person he wanted to talk to after he came back from his trip, I have my plans mapped out, just in case he decides to be an ass. I took out my phone and smiled as I began to send tons of messages to Tessa. I was going to lure her to Aaron's office and then carry out my plans, poor thing, she doesn't know what's waiting for her, she would be so heartbroken after today, that she won't have any option than to pack her bags and leave Aaron's life for good.

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.

Her karma is here.Vanessa and Dante follows the officers out.I glance at Bill, he's still shocked from what has happened.I'm worried for him but I don't show it."I need to start trusting my guts more. 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!"

    Aaron's Pov Lisa's eyes glint with a disturbing calm. "Dylan, of course you don't know that. I saved Aaron that day and he knows," her voice is firm but lacks its usual confidence.Dylan scoffs. "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. Lisa lied about saving me, all for what?My whole body explodes on the inside, hearing Dylan's revelation, my mind actually can't calculate this.Lisa staged an accident, this

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

    Tessa's Pov Aaron hugged me tightly, his hand trailed my hair, stroking them softly.I bury my face in his chest, letting the tears flow. 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

    Tessa's Pov.With Aaron's evidence in hand, I stride into Alexander's company, a surge of anger courses through me, I could feel my blood boiling.The elevator chimes and I walked out heading towards Alexander's office front door, I walked past his secretary and pulled the door open, ignoring her bickering.She follows me into the office hastily, unable to stop me.Alexander raised his eyebrows, surprised to see me. 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. "Tes, I wasn't expecting you,"I arched my eyebrows at him. "The night you came to my house. Didn't you say you left almost immediately?" I queried, my patience wearing thin.He gulped hard and then his expression gave him away."You perv! How didn't I see through you?" I groaned frustratingly. "How could you do such a thing?"

    Tessa's Pov."Tessa!" I heard my name and I turned to see who was calling.The face clicks. 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
