Rodri's POV

“I am so honored that you spared the time, to attend my wine tasting event.” Tyler Vines, CEO of Vines International Chain of Wine Producing Companies, said with a shrewd smile on his face. “Cheers to us.”

Everyone raised their glasses, “Cheers.”

Tyler sat back down on his seat at the head of the gigantic golden table, where we were all gathered. An exclusive gathering of billionaires and powerful business tycoons from companies around the country.

It was not easy to perfectly host a gathering like this, but that was what that greasy mother fucker called Tyler Vines specialized in. It was a high profile event, yet simple and direct, that was why I was in attendance.

Not too many people in one room, thankfully, because that would have worsened the dark mood that had been hovering around me for days. It was just a few days ago when Vanessa told me to stay the fuck away from her, using polite language, and that had just worsened my bottled up anger.

Those were the rules I had

    Rodri's POVI parked my car and stepped out, heading straight down the concrete walkway leading to the side of the mansion. After leaving the wine tasting event, I decided to come fucking visit mom like I usually did when I felt too messed up to do anything else.Benson had really fucking ruined my mood, and I could not go back to the house feeling like this, because I didn’t wasn’t to end up snapping at someone.It was already evening, slowly getting dark in the sky so when I saw extra lights turned on at the home clinic, I wondered if dad was in there. Usually, only the lights in her room would be on by this time of the evening.I pushed the door open and closed it behind, me, heading further in to the inner door. But when I got close enough, I heard a voice talking within.I froze, hand pausing on the door knob. Her nurses were under the strict instructions to not talk unnecessarily around her, in order not to cause confusion because the doctors had confirmed that mom could hear e

    Vanessa's POVShit. I was definitely in trouble.Repeatedly leaving the mansion without Rodri’s permission, and visiting his mother without his knowledge. But that was not completely my fault, was it? It was the chairman who brought me here in the first place… but I was the one who offered all by myself.Gosh, I should have told Rodri immediately I returned from that first visit.But I had not even been able to catch a single glimpse of him for two days, and now out of the blue he shows up here? I should not be shocked because this was literally his home, and that woman in there was his mother.I was the stranger here. I should not be meddling in their affairs. But I was still shocked to my bones when he showed up, dark, brooding and drop dead gorgeous in his black office clothes that were rolled up to his veined forearms.And that deep, dark voice of his ordered me to explain.My mind had melted from panic from that point till now.I just wanted to get out of here as fast as possibl

    Vanessa's POV The chairman laughed easily, clasping his hands in front of him. “Did your security not inform you that I’ve bringing your surrogate from your house to mine to see your mother?”I could feel the tension in Rodri’s shoulders. “I appreciate the thought, dad. But moving houses everyday is too much stress for her. I will bring her to visit mom once in a while.” He said with a tone of finality.The chairman only looked him square in the face and said, “Don’t lock her up in her bedroom simply because she is carrying your child. Other pregnant women go to different places everyday and the babies turn out fine. I’m just trying to make her happy. Just look at how happy she is.”I saw Rodri’s jaw clench as his hazel eyes slide sideways to glance at me. I was placed in an awkward position between father and son, and I just wished they could have had this conversation without me present.Besides, a large portion of my mind was still in disarray and panic over that passionate kiss w

This is risky and you’re my boss and I’m just your surrogate! Nothing else. After this contract, I will leave and you will never see me again!”“Who said that’s still fucking true? We stopped being just man and surrogate the first time our eyes met.” He walked towards me, boring into my eyes with those eyes of his. “I fucking want you, Vanessa.”My heart stuttered.This could not be real.“But the rules—““I made them. I can destroy them. I already destroyed them when I kissed you.” He was dangerously close now, but all I kept getting was danger signals combined with the panic, alarm, lust and above all, the guilt.It was killing me.“Stop.” I exclaimed, my voice shaking. He paused in his tracks, and I was mildly surprised that he even listened. “None of this makes any sense! Please don’t follow me.”I was on a verge of having a panic

    Trinity's POVAs I took off my nurse uniform, I spotted a particular blonde haired nurse at the other end of the changing room, straightening her dark blue suit and checking her appearance in the mirror in front of her designated space.I had kept my attention on her all day, doing my research on her and finding out everything I could about her.She turned around and left the changing room, while I hurriedly put on my clothes and brushed my hair out so it’s beautiful bronze strands fell down my back in rivulets. I glanced at myself in the mirror, and my appearance was perfect as usual.Despite the radiant smile on my lips, my amber eyes were filled with so much hate and malice.Picking up my bag, I sprayed my designer perfume in the air and slid it back into my bag. Then, I turned around in my heels and went in the same direction the blonde went.Samira Wiley.

    Trinity's POVShe stared at my Dolphin Hospital employee ID, and stared back at me, slowly closing her laptop. “What are we talking about?”I slide my ID back into my purse. “I’m glad you asked. You recently just accepted a job offer from Mr. Rodri Darnell to be in charge of his surrogate, didn’t you? And you have been to the mansion once, to see her for the first time.”She looked skeptical and wary, staring me up and down like she was unsure if she should call the police on me. I wasn’t fazed, because I knew my direct, piercing and blatant stare was having the effect I wanted on her.“Why are you asking me this?” Samira asked.“I want to strike a deal with you.” I answered. “I was the nurse in charge of the CEO’s surrogate before you were employed.”“Oh.” It finally clicked for her. “But what kind of deal are we talking about?”She didn’t immediately shut down my offer, which was a good sign. My stare on her didn’t move one inch as I answered, “I need constant information on what’s

    Moriah's POVMy entire body almost refused to cooperate with me as I slowly got up from the bed. Dried tears wet my pillow as usual, and I grabbed the glass of water Estelle had kindly placed by my bedside table, and took a huge sip.The cool water washed down my dry throat and cleared my head a little.But the companionable sadness that taking root in my mind could never be shaken. Each time I woke up, my mind was instantly plagued by the years of undying trauma accumulated in my brain. Sometimes I looked at a corner of my bedroom and flinched as if a glass vase would be randomly flying at me.The scar under my hair throbbed sometimes, even though it was an old scar.I got it when Mike, Vanessa’s father, smashed a heavy glass vase on my head when Vanessa was little. She had gone to school, and he had turned me into his punching bag as usual. I had bled so heavily that day, more than I have ever done in my entire forty six years of living. I had thought I would die, and no feeling wa

How many pills had I taken yesterday? I tried to remember. But I lost count. Sighing tiredly, I felt my mood automatically get worse now that the pills I used as a coping mechanism was gone.I moved to the refrigerator to check if I had another bottle of pills laying around in there. But I found none. Also half of the fridge was empty, reminding me that I had not gone grocery shopping for a while.That was the only thing I still had the strength to do, because all I had to do was stare at the list of groceries Vanessa had saved on my phone, pick things from the counter, and drop them inside my cart. Waking around store was distracting, and that was the only time I was around people

    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

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.
