*BENNETT*

I was too furious to watch more of what was captured on the cameras.

I pressed the telecom and asked Esme to meet me in the media room.

“Good evening,Mr Graham.”She began walking in.

For a moment,I just stared at her in disbelief.

“Shouldn’t your loyalty to me come first before anything else?”I asked.

She blinked.”What do you mean,sir?”

“I know it was you who messed with Maliyah’s cooking that day and who broke my watch.”

Her face paled, instantly.

“Who made you do that?Charlotte?”

She shakily nodded.

My fists clenched.”More than anyone,you know how severe my allergy is,I could have died.And more than anyone,you knew how much that watch meant to me…”

She broke into tears and fell on her knees.

“I am so sorry.I did not want to do it,I did not want to do it but…but I…I already…”

“How long have you been telling on me to Charlotte and my Grandmother?”

“When…when you moved out of Madam Valentina’s place, she asked me to always keep an eye on you.Back then,I…I really thought she w

    “Charlotte,my dear!”Madam Valentina exclaimed in joy.“Grandma.”Charlotte beamed and hugged her.“I was delighted when I was informed you were in my house.I wasn’t expecting you.”“Well,My tour had to come to an end sooner than I originally planned.”“You mean, you’re back home now?”The old woman asked as they both sat down.Charlotte nodded and sighed, deeply.”Well,I was expecting a grand welcome from Ben,but he gave me a grand surprise instead,he’s actually suggesting we break up.”Madam Valentina frowned in disbelief.”No…no,he wouldn’t say something like that.”“He did.I kinda made a tiny mistake and now he wants a break up.”The old woman shook her head.”He didn’t mean that.I’m sure he’s only just angry.You know how he gets when he’s mad.Also,there’s not a single reason acceptable for you two to ever separate.”Charlotte pouted,sadly.”Are you going to talk to him?”Madam Valentina ran a hand through her hair.“Yes.I’ll talk to him.He’ll get a divorce,asap and you two will be toget

    We were in Ben’s office now, the movie totally forgotten about.He was at the other side of the office making some calls while I was sitting on the couch in his office,I brought out my cellphone and browsed about Gary Frasier.What I found out had me fidgeting.He was a very wealthy man.He had his own conglomerate and he was also one of the major shareholders in Imperial Group,Ben’s company.Dread filled me to know that I had offended such a powerful man.Gosh,I had created yet another mess for Ben.I wished I could turn back time.I should have just hurriedly got off the elevator instead of hurting him.A knock sounded on the door and I saw Ben’s secretary whom he had earlier introduced as Simon walk in with two cups of coffee.He placed it on the table in front of me and left the office.Ben dropped his phone on the table and walked over to me.“Little Dove,have some.”He said,handing me a cup and sitting beside me.”You must be very shaken.I’m sorry.”I blinked.Why was he apologizing?

    I really wish things wasn’t like this.I wish more than anything that we were good for each other.That we could give each other what we both want and needed.But I had to stop.It was time I let him go.Even if it was so hard to do,even if I didn’t know how I would live without him,I just can’t be his other woman anymore.*You’re special to me,Maliyah.I can not share you.*As I recalled these words,I knew exactly what to do to make him divorce me as soon as possible.I got my cellphone and gave Alonzo a call.“Hello,Maliyah,it’s such a pleasant surprise to get a phone call from you.”He rattled out.I fought back my tears and murmured.“Will you be chanced tomorrow?I’d like to stop by your house.”“Yes…yes.I’m chanced.”“What time will you be home?”“Anytime.I’ll be home all day.”“Okay.I’ll be there at noon.”And then,I shakily hung up.******************That evening,I sat at the dining room alone having dinner.Ben comes home late these days so I wasn’t really expecting him to join me.

    *MALIYAH*“Alonzo…stop.”I murmured.“Do you want to continue living with him?“I swallowed,feeling so uncomfortable with how close he was to me.It felt as if I was cheating on Ben already.*I’ll make the phone call.I’ll get a divorce from Maliyah.I stand to gain a lot by being in-laws with the Watsons.It’s a decision I made a long time ago,I will marry Charlotte.*These words ran through my head and tears pricked my eyes.How can I cheat on someone who was never really mine?I was doing the right thing.For him.For myself.“Kis…kiss me..”I bit out.“Give me your cellphone.”He whispered,still holding me.I handed it to him.“Relax and close your eyes,okay?”I released a shaky breath and closed my eyes.His lips pressed against mine and all I wanted to do was to push him away.I felt him take hold of one of my hands and placed it on his chest and then he deepened the kiss,taking nibbles and more nibbles of my mouth.I felt appalled.As soon as I heard the camera click,I opened my eyes

    *MALIYAH*I stood still,basically immobilized for a while.Perhaps not knowing how to make this sink in.How to accept what I had just done.I felt numb as I finally moved and picked up my cellphone.The screen was shattered and it wouldn’t turn on.I slowly stuffed it into my bag.I moved around in a daze packing all the things I could think of.I didn’t pack most of the clothes because I didn’t deserve to wear them anymore.I took off the wedding ring from my finger and placed it on top of the dresser and then my eyes came across the key necklace.I should return that as well but I didn’t want to.I just wanted something,something to always remind me of him.So I took the necklace with me.As I walked out of the house,I found Drew standing beside a car.He walked up to me and tried taking my big bag from me but I declined.“I…You don’t have to take me home.I can get a cab…”“It’s late,ma’am and I have strict orders to take you home.”Not having the strength to argue with that,I let him t

    “Oh Alonzo,she’s practically living like a ghost right now.She barely eats or sleep.I just don’t know what to do anymore.”Joan lamented to Alonzo.Alonzo sighed.She hardly even respond to his calls and messages.Was she going to sulk over that man forever?He won’t allow that.“Perhaps,she needs to get distracted.I think being home all day does her no good.Does she have anything she wants to do?”“She wants to go to college but college applications aren’t out until a few months time.”“Then she should start up something.A business perhaps.”He suggested.Joan nodded.”That’s a good idea.I’m sure Felicia and I can come up with something.You’re such a good friend,Alonzo.”Alonzo offered her a small smile hoping he would be called her ‘boyfriend’ soon.He felt he was making progress already.Her mother and her aunt were fond of him already.He just needed to make her like him,romantically.Joan stared at Alonzo wishing Maliyah had fallen in love with him instead.He seemed to be such an easyg

    *MALIYAH*There was no way I had heard that,correctly.“I’m not pregnant.”I argued.The doctor blinked at me.”You are.”He stared at Alonzo then at me.”I think I should give you and your boyfriend some time to process things.”He let out,obviously realizing that this wasn’t good news for me.“He’s not my boyfriend.”I murmured.“Well…em…I’ll give you a minute.I’ll be back soon to inform you of your treatment plan.You need to stay healthy for yourself and for the baby.”With that,he left the ward.My mind was in turmoil.I wanted to believe that this was a mistake…that the doctor had read someone else chart to me but I knew that kind of mistake rarely happened.And I had also mentally calculated the timeline.I had conceived this child that weekend on the yacht.Damn it!I should have told him I wasn’t on the pill.I shouldn’t have had sex with him that carelessly.And foolishly thinking I might not be overly fertile.But I can’t be pregnant.I just didn’t want to accept it.I glanced up at

    *MALIYAH*I moved in with Ben that day because I just couldn’t spend another day away from him.The following day,I got to the office super late.It had been hard for Ben and I to go our separate ways to work this morning.He had dropped me off at the front of Mobilotech and it was another struggle to get down from his car.He had to walk me into the company’s lobby hand in hand and we eventually let go of each other,promising each other that we would close from work early.“Look who finally decided to show up.”Timothy teased when I walked into his office to submit some documents to him.“I’m sorry…I was stuck in traffic.”That made him laugh,because it was an obvious lie.“My God,look at you,you’re glowing.You two are so in love.I was watching from my window…he practically walked you into the company,I thought he might just start work here because of you.”I laughed.”I’m missing him already.Tim,can I close early today?”“No.”He chuckled.“Please…”“Maliyah,look at the time…you’re very

    “You’re always in my head.”He said to me.I was going to go up in flames.“You’re in my blood.”I let out a shaky breath as he continued thrusting into me with the vibrator.“You’re in every one of my fucking veins.”Oh I needed him,I needed him right now.“Ben…Ben…wait…I need…I need your cock.”I panted,trying to control the movements of my hips to prevent myself from coming.“I want you inside of me when I come.”I murmured.He grinned at me.I gasped as the bulbous head slid from me.He knelt on the bed,positioning himself between my legs,nudging my legs wide with his powerful hair roughened thighs.I tried to catch my breath as I looked up at him,I tried to calm the thundering of my heart,the roar in my ears, but all I wanted was to feel his weight on me…in me.He was poised against me,I could feel him.One push and he’d be inside me.He leaned down over me, his legs opening me wider,his forearms resting next to my head as he looked straight down into my eyes.His jaw flexed before h

    *MALIYAH*I tried to ease my tensed muscles,to calm the erratic breathing,the roaring of my blood,but only managed to gasp again as he rocked back and forth once more.“It’s okay.”He groaned.”Relax”I swallowed at the blunt pressure,squeezed my eyes shut and tried to do just that.I shifted my hips a little on the bed in a futile effort to ease his way, for a better angle,to help alleviate the feeling of fullness.“Easy.”He ground out.I was holding myself taut in anticipation of his next retreat and entry.I could feel it,but my muscles wound tighter,nerves strung taut.My body just wouldn’t cooperate.It felt as if he was breaking into me all over again.He moved completely out of me and I quickly held his hand.“No…please…don’t stop.I…I just…it’s been awhile since I…”I paused,not sure if I should talk about the men I had tried to be with in London.“I don’t want to hear about your sex experience with other men.”He informed me,calmly.“Does that make you love me less?”I asked,my heart

    *BENNETT*“Kiss me,Ben…please.”She urged,pulling her face close to mine.I caressed her gently in my arms.She was warm and soft.I lowered my head and molded my lips to hers.Fuck!I ran my tongue over her lips and between them.I groaned at the shaft of heat that arrowed down right into my cock and tightened my balls.I dipped my tongue inside her mouth,once,twice, a third time before I pulled sharply back.God I had been avoiding kissing or touching her,because I knew that would wear off the tiny bit of resistant I had left.I took a deep breath in a futile effort to stem the rapid thud in my heart and fight the urge to kiss her again.But when she rubbed herself against me,I gave in again.I pressed my lips against hers.Maliyah nibbled along my bottom lip,used her tongue to taste the shape of my mouth.The soft,tentative moments caused a curl in my gut.I felt her soft breath fan out against my mouth as she pulled back and that sigh was my undoing.Before I had the time to think about

  • The Billionaire's Temporary Wife   I love this.

    *MALIYAH*It’s a Saturday morning and I awoke without Ben in bed.I knew he wasn’t going to work today.Running my hand through my hair,I walked out of the bedroom and went in search for him.I found him at the gym.I leaned against the door as I watched him do some exercises.I nibbled my lower lip watching him do some pulls up.He was bare chested and his muscles bulged with his every movement.I squeezed my thighs together feeling hot and bothered.Oh God,I wanted him to touch me so bad.I stood there,watching until he was done.When he started to gulp down a bottle of water,I finally walked in,trying to keep my hands to myself.“I might just take you by force,Mr Graham.I don’t know how long I can resist this temptation.”I said to him.I could see he was trying hard not to smile.God,how much longer was he going to make me chase him?Not that I was tired of chasing him but I wish he could just give in a bit.He clearly was still very much attracted to me and he’s equally been trying

    *MALIYAH*Things were pretty messy at the office that day.With so many calls,the news of him coming out was pretty scandalous,because it also had to do with a divorce.People were throwing shades,saying whatever they felt about the whole thing but Timothy was unbothered.I could tell he wasn’t fully unbothered though.He loved his family and it would make him happy if they accepted him.But he didn’t really care about what the public thought though.He felt people who didn’t know him personally had no right to judge him.Hell,he had even set up a date with Miles.Miles seemed to like him too but was still pretty hurt by Timothy’s rejection in high school so he was currently playing hard to get.I hope they could get back together soon.At the close of work,I walked out of the office,excited to go see Ben.I frowned seeing someone else at the receptionist stand.My mom.The receptionist had called earlier that she wanted to see me but I had specifically told her to send this woman away.

    *MALIYAH*Since he might not come down for dinner,I’ll bring it up to him.I dished out the meals and headed upstairs with the tray.Getting to his bedroom,I walked in to finding him pulling on a sweatpants.“Jesus!”He seemed,startled.”Why are you still here?”“Let’s eat together and get some sleep.”I announced,setting down the tray.When I turned to face him,he was covering his bare chest with a robe.“You could’ve at least knocked.I could’ve been naked.”He lashed out.I laughed.”So?Well now that you mentioned it,I want to see all of you…I’ve missed seeing you.”I purred and started walking up to him.He walked back.”What is wrong with you?Where the hell is Timothy?I thought I heard the sound of a car.”“He knows I belong here.”“You don’t belong anywhere near me.Get out.”“I don’t want to.”I backed him against the wall.Oh how the tables had turned.He used to be the one chasing after me.Not that I mind being in this position right now.It’s actually quite fun.“Maliyah,go home.Stop

    “I don’t care what happens to me now.I just want to be with him.”“Then don’t give up.Don’t give up on him.He needs someone.He needs love.He’s just scared to say he needs you.You have to show him that he doesn’t need to be scared,okay?”I nodded.”Thank you,Emily.I should have come see you sooner.”She hugged me,tightly.”Thanks for being alive,Maliyah.Drew will be so happy knowing you found your way back to Ben.”I sobbed into her arms.A sound came from the door and I lifted up my head to see a boy and a girl walking in,obviously returning from school.I wiped my cheeks as I stared at them.“Aiden has gotten so much bigger.”I cooed.“He’ll be thirteen in a few days.”“Mommy.”The little girl ran up to her and hugged her.“How was school,baby?”“It was fine.I learnt a poem.”“This is Ava.”Emily introduced.”I was pregnant with her when Drew…passed.”Oh.I hope Charlotte rots in hell.“Hello.”Aiden beamed at me,politely.“Aiden,this is Ben’s wife.”And then he frowned.”I thought she…”“It
