Vanessa's POVThe entire morning was hectic, because I had to spend a few hours with my fitness trainer and an extra hour with my beautician who worked hard to get rid of the puffs that had formed around my eyes overnight.Last night was just so taxing. After that crazy incident with Rodri, and me running up to my room to cry my eyes out, only to find out that my mom had been hiding the fact that dad had been constantly showing up at the house… Everything was just too much strain on my emotions.Now, I felt better, and my eyes were no longer swollen, thanks to my beautician.But I was still besides myself with worry. I grabbed my phone and dialed mom’s number. She didn’t answer it. I dialed a couple more time, with anxiety bubbling up inside me with each unanswered call.Finally, she picked up, sounding a bit different and nasal.I was immediately alarmed. “Mom? Are you okay?!”She cleared her throat. “I’m fine, I’m fine, honey. It’s just, I decided to take a walk around this morning
Vanessa's POV“I will check your vitals, then we can head outside for a walk.” Samira smiled, taking out her equipment from the bag.“I don’t think I’m up for a walk.” I sighed.She glanced up at me. “Is everything alright, Miss Sterling?”I shrugged. “I’m just a little tired.”“That’s alright. Instead of a walk, we can go stay by the poolside, breathe in the fresh air, don’t you think?”I nodded. “That sounds better.”After a moment, she led me downstairs and out of the house to the massive blue pool. There were pristine white lounge chairs decking the area around it, with soft, green grass covering the ground. I knew it was beautiful, since I had seen it many times.But now that I was so close to it, I realized how massive it was. It was very impressive.“You’re right, Samira.” I smiled back at her, taking in a deep inhale of the fresh air. “I feel more relaxed out here.”She smiled, ushering me to a lounge chair. I lay down on it in the shade, quietly watching the blue pool. She me
Trinity's POVWho said I had to stop living my life if I got pregnant?Sure, I was carrying a billion dollar baby. A heir to the massive Darnell fortune. A child whose sole purpose in life was to secure my spot first, as a part of the Darnell’s, and then later, as Rodri’s wife, lover, anything.I do not care. As long as no one else has him.I am the perfect example of a woman living her best life. I have multiple sexual partners, even if my number one would always be Rodri, I party a lot despite being a nurse, I look pretty all the time.Because I knew I could get any man I want. I was able to become Rodri’s fuck buddy before he stopped talking to me, and I was able to sleep with the fucking chairman of the Darnell group. Why would I stop doing all that simply because I was pregnant?I laughed and blow dried my hair in front of the mirror, running my fingers through my beautiful, long, bronze tresses. I secretly enjoyed the fact that Vanessa lived like a prisoner in Rodri’s mansion.
Rodri's POV“The Limo is ready, sir.” The chauffeur informed me with a respectful bow of his head.I nodded, and glanced back at the main door of the house, which immediately opened to reveal Vanessa, being led out by her beautician. My entire body was suddenly filled with instant heat as my gaze raked down her body in the dress.She was goddamn beautiful.And so fucking sexy.The jet black dress matched my jet black suit, rolling down her curves in a streamlined motion. The straps hung over her shoulder, while the low neckline dipped into the most luscious, soft and bouncy cleavage I had ever fucking seen.The skin of her waist was exposed on either side by two slender spaces in the dress. It curved over her wide hips and flowed down to her legs. As she moved down the stairs, a high slit in the dress revealed her smooth, tan legs in black heels.I tried to control the surge of desire swelling inside me as she stepped closer. Her brown hair fell down her bare shoulders in waves, and h
Vanessa's POVThe beat of the music thumped through my ears and reminded so much of the old days, when I and Estelle would go to clubs almost every Friday night to party, drink our problems away and dance to the amazing club music.I missed it so much.I missed hanging out with Estelle like a normal twenty three year old, where all I had to think of was my annoying job and bills to pay.But this party made me feel way better, since I brought me happy memories, so I had enough of the non-alcoholic wine, and joined the women on the dance floor. My hair swayed around me as I swung my hips to the beat, feeling a familiar feeling of euphoria course through me.Now that I was on the dancefloor, with my eyes closed and a smile on my lips, I realized how tense I have been for the past two months. How suffocated I have been… but for now, I could forget them.After what felt like a few minutes, the song changed into another one, and I stopped to catch my breath… only for my breath to get stuck
Vanessa's POVI was desperately holding the upper part of my dress to my chest, cheeks burning with humiliation at this disaster. Blossom nearly tore my dress off my body, in front of the entire crowd at the party. Thank goodness the reporters were not allowed into the hall, or I would become the laughing stock of the entire internet tonight.“Get us another exit away from the cameras, and tell the chauffeur to bring the Limo closer.” I heard Rodri give orders to his security, still shielding me from the crowd and leading me away from the scene.I had tears burning my eyes, because I did not deserve to be humiliated for no reason like this. Especially when I did not do anything to Blossom. I never even remembered her name, until Rodri said it.My breath was stuck in my throat, as a tear rolled down my cheeks. Maybe, I did deserve this? She was right. I did not belong here. At such an extravagant party with all types of wealthy and powerful people in attendance.I did not even deserve
Vanessa's POVWhen we finally got to the mansion, I was disoriented and lightheaded from the heavy make out session I had with Rodri. I had somehow ended up straddling his thighs, with his hand cupping my ass through the dress while he kissed me senseless.I was barely breathing, but his raging desire was implacable. He covered my lips with his, grazing my bottom lip with his teeth. I shivered against the hard wall of his chest.That was when I realized the Limo had stopped moving. I broke the kiss, trembling with strong arousal and at the same time, anxiousness that things between him and I escalated too fast.“Rodri..” I was about to tell him that this was wrong… because I was not the good person he thought I was.I was nothing but a cheap fraud only here for money. I was nothing like the women he had been with before. He would be disappointed in me too fast if he knew what my true intentions are.He would not look at me the same way with so much desire in his hazel eyes. The only
Vanessa's POVI could not believe this was really happening. But there was no time to think. My mind was in disarray and my body was on fire. Rodri’s hand was still holding my wrists tight together, and his other hand was pulling brazenly, decadently grabbing at my ass cheeks so hard.It felt so sinful, but I was loving every moment of it.His mouth was warm, wet and naughty as it moved across my skin to the flesh of my breasts. I whimpered, belly coiling tight in anticipation. Then he took my nipple into his mouth, rolling his wet tongue over it and sucking hungrily.I jolt, as a moan ripped out of my throat. My toes curl in pleasure, as I squirmed against the wall. He released my wrists to palm my other breast, and I grabbed his strong shoulders to balance myself. My touch made him look up at me, and my breath cuts off at the look in his eyes.Wild with lust, dark with need and dangerous with desire.He straightened up, never breaking eye contact with me, and he started to shrug off
Vanessa’s POVRodri walked out of the bathroom with water dripping from his head down his body and I just sat in the bed and watched him clean his body with the towel.A freaking towel touching my man’s body? Parts that should exclusively belong to me.I made a mental note of getting rid of that towel as I tiptoed to where he was standing and grabbed his nipples from behind.“Babe…” he turned to me and I immediately took one nipple with my mouth and the other with my hand.Immediately his moans filled the room as he grabbed a handful of my hair in ecstasy.I raised my head to look at his face and stole my lips with his. Kissing and sucking my tongue like his life depended on it.He ripped off my transparent nightwear and started sucking my breast.I threw my head backwards, giving him full access to my body. He pushed me till my back was against the wall then he raised one of my legs up and inserted a finger inside me.“You’re wet baby… you’re wet for me.”“Ohhh.. yes.. just for you.”
Estelle’s POV “Mo, this is not the way to the hospital.” I said as Moses drove through a very unfamiliar route. “You didn’t believe me when I said we were going to the hospital to see those kids. Did you?” I gave him a questioning glare. “Come on babe, don’t you think it’s too late to go to a hospital to look for kids you don’t even know personally?” “So…” I was still glaring at him and it somehow seemed funny to him as he laughed like he just heard the joke of the century. “I’m sorry babe but I was pulling your legs.” “I thought you wanted to go to the hospital to be sure I wasn’t lying to you.” “Why will I ever doubt you?” He placed a hand on mine while still concentrating on the road. “I will never doubt you babe. I trust you and I love you.” My glare slowly turned into a little smile with puppy eyes. “Stop it Moses. It’s so cringey.” “I can’t stop loving you so you have to manage my cringiness.” “Is there any word like that in the dictionary?” I asked, la
Rodri’s POV I didn’t believe I’d feel the way I felt when I saw Benson at the hospital looking all pale and white. It was the doctor's assurance and Vanessa’s support that helped me overcome that day and the other days that followed till he became well again. “I’m ready babe.” Vanessa’s voice dragged my strayed attention. I got up and gave her a forehead kiss as we left the bedroom together. We went to Rainn’s bedroom to see him and his grandma that was always with him. “Morning mom.” Vanessa and I chorused. Vanessa turned to me and smiled, giving me a slight tickle on my waist. “You know you are the overly ticklish one and you’re looking for trouble.” I whispered in her ear and she giggled in response. Rainn chuckled too in his cradle like he could hear what I was saying to his mother. I walked to where he was, carried him and started throwing him up. His laughter filled the room giving me a kind of satisfaction I never thought I’d ever have. I gave him a ki
Estelle’s POV After that remarkable night with Moses, I woke up to my head on his firm chest and his strong arms around my body. It was the best night of my life. Though since then I’ve been wondering what we really were and if he was feeling the same way I was feeling. I could only hope I wasn’t losing myself easily again. The sound of my phone ringing dragged back my attention. And as expected, the caller was Moses. “Hello dreamboat, how is my pookie bear doing?” Typical of Moses he’s always having new cute names for me. “Mo…” I knew I sounded exhausted, but I should have controlled it because the man I was talking to would freak out. “Why are you sounding this way? Still at work? Haven’t you closed for the day? Aren’t they…” “Calm down Mo, don’t stress about it. I’m good.” “We both know you’re not.” “Well it’s because I’m mis…” I almost told him I was missing him. I heaved a sigh We weren’t officially together so I didn’t want to seem like I was despera
Vanessa’s POV “Ms Trinity Seaman, you’re found guilty of all the charges against you, therefore, you’re hereby sentenced to ten years imprisonment with hard labor.” The judge ruled the case against her and hit the gavel on the bench. I couldn’t help but notice the look of horror on Trinity’s face when the judgment was made. I saw regrets, fear and pains written all over her. I wished I could turn back the hand of time and not go to her for an abortion. But which other way would I have met Rodri? “My baby…” was the last word I could read from her lips as the prison officers dragged her out of the courtroom. Rodri’s grip tightened on my hand and I turned to see him giving me a reassuring smile. “It’s not your fault babe. You didn’t tell her to try to poison me or drug dad and try to have his child. She doesn’t deserve your pity.” I blinked back the tears that were threatening to fall off my eyes. “What about her child?” I asked him as we walked out of the courthouse. “
Trinity’s POV The entrance of the cheap driver into the interrogation room destabilized me for a split second. I thought he already confessed to Angela and her husband what we had that night and I mentioned him out of impulse, which I was already starting to regret. I didn’t want to say that but I was at a dead end, I needed to get myself off the mess I was in. Though I still couldn’t believe the results of the DNA tests Angela threw at me proved whatever she claimed. The cheapskate driver’s hands started shaking as he tried in vain to open the door and leave. “It’s him what?” Rodri scoffed. I could see the confusion on his face mirror on his parents face. But Vanessa kinda looked indifferent, like she knew what the next thing I’d say. Ugh! I hate this bitch and how highly she thinks of herself now that she has Rodri. I hate her so much that I wish she’d just fall down and die at this moment! “If the result of the DNA test says the child is not a Darnell, which I st
Rodri’s POV We got to the hospital to meet Trinity panting like she had just finished a one thousand five hundred meter race. “You!” She pointed at Vanessa as soon as she saw her. “You betrayed me, you went ahead and fell in love with him against your own words! I will make you regret it.” “Sure you will after telling us.. no, after telling the world how you got pregnant and tried to pin the bastard on my son and husband by drugging and having sex with him.” Mom threw the result of the DNA tests she did at Trinity’s face. Trinity paused momentarily then took a deep breath. “Who.. how.. you…” She was obviously flustered by mom and how her secret got exposed. “Who told me and how did I know?” Mom fired at her. The door opened and two police officers walked in. “Miss Trinity Seaman, you are under arrest for…” “You can’t arrest me…” “I’ll advise you to remain silent for anything you say might be used against you in the court of law. “What about my son, what would becom
Rodri’s POV “I’m coming with you.” Vanessa said as she entered the bathroom after I came out. I would have stubbornly gone to see mom last night after dads call if not for the unexpected rain that showed up suddenly and Vanessa used the opportunity she had to give me a good blow job that if not for much self control, I would have fucked her silly. I saw my face turning red in the mirror. I wasn’t a baby and it wasn’t even the first time I was given a blow job and truth be told, it wasn’t the best I’d ever had but somehow I found myself blushing at the thought of it. “And why is your face red?” I didn’t need to turn to know it was Vanessa. And she was in her birthday suit. The fuck was going on in her silly mind? She didn’t even look like someone that just delivered a child, if not for the little scar on her stomach, no one would know she was ever pregnant. “You’re beautiful...” I heard myself say without my knowledge. She came to me, stole a kiss an
Estelle’s POVAfter Vanessa ran off, I laughed inwardly because I didn’t want Moses to know that I was happy being alone with him, even though I was mad at him.I knew what Vanessa did, she wanted me to settle things quickly with Moses because if this misunderstanding lingers, it could cost us a chance at a beautiful relationship I was hoping to have with him.Still, I told myself to remind myself that I was going to kill Vanessa the next time I saw her for being a traitor and a betrayer.“I like her.” He said, as he started driving again.“Why won’t you?” I rolled my eyes. “…when she’s on your side.”“Just know that I love anything and anyone you love.”I scoffed. What in the name of cheesiness?“Doesn’t matter, I won’t forgive you for lying to me.”He drove to one side of the road and pulled over. Brought out his phone from his pocket and started searching for whatever while I watched him like he was acting out a scene in a movie.“Yes! This is it!” He sounded and looked enthusiasti
