The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury In The Lion's Den
Ciara arrived at the Luscious home and parked outside. Then she sat still in the car and waited. What was Ciara waiting for exactly, she could not tell.Her mind went back to the shock on Samuel Fury’s face when she had boycotted him and Kingston, entered his car and driven away. Ciara found herself satisfied with how she had played everything.Maybe if she had been this strategic and bold, she would have been able to figure out a lot of things about herself long before now. Instead, she had relied on fate to bring justice to her.Ciara snorted at the thought of that.Fate had never been kind to her. Fate had never played in her favor. Fate had never showed her exactly what she wanted. All that Ciara had gotten from life had been misfortune, woes, and tragedy, and she was sick of it. Ciara was sick of being treated like trash all the time and have words that broke her spirit thrown at her so casually.If she hadn’t relied on Samuel, she would have gotten to Rudge before Linda and she

Ciara could not place where exactly she had heard the name Hayes before, but she had an unsettling feeling about it. Even though she struggled to recall where she had heard the name, she knew without a doubt that the name was associated with something terrible.Ciara just couldn’t remember immediately.She was still thinking about it, and the exact words of Linda to this Hayes guy when Linda stepped out of the bathroom, and they met each other, their gaze locked; Ciara, determined and Linda, shocked.But Linda recovered from the shock almost immediately. Ciara did not move an inch.“Ciara?” Linda asked, disbelief in her eyes.“Yes, it is me, Linda,” Ciara said, holding Linda’s gaze. “What are you doing here, you wretch?” Linda recovered from the shock and confusion of seeing Ciara standing in her room so late in the night. “And how did you get in?”“None of these questions are important, Linda. I have questions of my own to ask you, and you have no choice but to answer them,” Ciara s

Ciara ran like she had never done before, knowing that it was now or never. She could feel and hear the man chasing her.Ciara had caught sight of his face when he wanted to grab her, and oddly, even though it was dark, she knew that the face was familiar, and at the same time, it wasn’t one of the bodyguards in the Luscious home.So who was he?First, it was the mention of a name that brought shivers on Ciara, and now, a dangerously familiar face. As Ciara ran, she continued to ponder on it. She knew now that she was not as skilled at this as she had thought, because if she had been, Linda would not have been able to call someone on her while she stood right in front of her, threatening her. Ciara ran down the stairs, taking them four at a time. She could hardly believe that she possessed such strength and agility despite being pregnant, but Ciara hadn’t been this determined to escape danger like now. As Ciara dashed down the stairs, she heard the man also dash down the stairs. Fort

Ciara froze when she heard what Quinton told her. The words were as cold as though they were coming from Samuel Fury himself.“He is very upset with you, and I will advise you stay away for now,” Quinton said. She talked in whispers, which made Ciara suspect that she was making the call secretly. Ciara opened her mouth to ask Quinton a question, but the line went dead. Ciara stayed there, parked by the side of the road, confused, alone in the dark, dazed. First of all, she could not get over the shock of Aunt Mary’s death. That was the only person that ever truly loved her and looked out for her after she lost her mother. And now, Aunt Mary had passed on and Ciara did not even get the chance to bid her farewell.Ciara knew that Samuel would be furious with her. He would blame her for his mother’s death. Heck, Ciara felt responsible for her death as well.Ciara wailed loudly, the sound of her bitter cry echoing in the dead of the night.It was all her fault. Samuel Fury had saved her

Samuel walked back downstairs after cursing, and threatening, and weeping, and grieving, and reminiscing.He was tired and exhausted, but he was also restless. His heart was heavy, and at the same time, he wanted to unleash all of it on Ciara Summers. Samuel realized that Ciara had played him for a fool. She had used emotional manipulation to make him lose his guard around her. Knowing her and her ability to always indulge in incriminating acts and always looking for escape routes, Samuel should never have fallen for her antics.In Samuel’s entire existence, no woman had ever played him, until Ciara Summers. All his life, nobody had ever messed up with him and went scot free, and Ciara would not be different. Samuel gritted his teeth in annoyance. Granted, he had vowed to his mother to protect her, love her and make her happy, but right now, all Samuel wanted was to get hold of Ciara and make her pay.His mother would have to forgive him, because he was about to break his vow to her.

Samuel sat still for a while after the doctor made the shocking announcement.“Are you okay, Mr. Fury?” The doctor asked when he sensed that Samuel was speechless and unmoving. Samuel stared into thin air, and his mind went blank for a couple of minutes. It was the words of the doctor that brought Samuel back to the present.“What did you say?” Samuel asked. He had heard the doctor, of course, but he wanted to be sure that he hadn’t heard wrongly, because it could be that he was still recovering from fainting, and his senses were yet to respond or perform actively.“Your wife is pregnant,” the doctor repeated.“Ciara?” Samuel asked. He had to ask, because some weeks ago, they had been at the hospital with Linda and her parents for a pregnancy test, and the doctor had confirmed that Linda Luscious was pregnant, so he was probably mistaking Ciara for Linda.“Yes, of course. She didn’t mention it to you? She was confirmed pregnant by me in this very hospital,” the doctor responded.“When

Ciara drove like a wild beast around town as the police van chased her. Soon, another police van appeared in front of Ciara in an attempt to block her, but Ciara was quick to swerve to the other side of the road. Fortunately for her, he had tried to round her up at a place when there was a space to turn around quickly.Ciara was more than grateful that it was the dead of the night, and as a result, the roads were quiet and scanty, making it easy for Ciara to navigate through. Ciara was surprised at her agility and skill to drive Samuel’s expensive car. She hadn’t driven a car in so long, and even when she did, it had been a couple of times, so she hadn’t even really mastered it, but then again, she was under so much pressure and danger, and such emotions could bring out something that Ciara didn’t even know she possessed.The blaring siren sounds of the vans chasing Ciara increased, and even though the windows of the cars were up, Ciara could hear it loudly. Ciara increased the speed

Ciara drove towards the dimly lit cabin, a small smile on her face. As she approached it, the features of the cabin, illuminated by the light in the cabin Ciara wondered what such cabin was doing in the depth of the woods, but she was deeply grateful that such a house existed. Ciara drove the car beside the cabin and parked. She got out of the car and winced as a sharp pain cut through her waist. Ciara released a muffled groan. She almost fell to the ground, but she held the door of the car to steady herself from falling. Then Ciara felt a trickle of blood down her thighs, and she began to sob painfully.“No, I don’t want to lose my baby,” Ciara sobbed. She willed her baby to stay put. Ciara managed to get her backpack where she had most of her belongings, locked the car and kept the key where only she would be able to reach, because henceforth, Ciara knew that she had to be extra careful, and also, the car was the only thing that would keep her moving. Supposing the cabin wasn’t wh

The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury Just Blissful
Ciara heard a knock on the door and she went to open it without an iota of fear or dread; all her enemies have been put behind bars.Ciara got discharged from the hospital two days ago, and she was yet to make that call to Samuel Fury that she had wanted to make, because she was still dazed about the revelation.“The world is truly a small place,” Ciara had said to herself, breathlessly.Who would have thought that Samuel’s son would be birthed by the same doctor? Heck, who would have thought that the mysterious man that Ciara had spent that night with was Samuel Fury? Ciara trembled at the thought of telling Samuel that her son was his, because she fully believed the doctor even though she was yet to see Samuel’s left thigh, and that was primarily because they hadn’t been really intimate.Ciara almost passed out when she opened the door and found Samuel Fury standing before her. They stared deeply into each other’s eyes for a couple of minutes without saying anything, and Ciara could
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury The Birthmark
It had been several months now, and Ciara was glad that she hadn’t been found, because deep down, she knew that Samuel Fury would be looking all over the country for her. Her bump was big now, and the doctor she had begun seeing already told her that she would be due any moment from now. Ciara wanted Samuel to find her, desperately for that matter, but she knew that if she let Samuel find her without closing this chapter of her life, she would never be complete.Ciara was free now, and she knew this because she was lucky to be present at a coffee shop when Colt and Ruby’s court verdict was read. She wondered why Linda Luscious wasn’t also in the stand, but Ciara pushed that out of her mind.Her only goal and desire right now, before she had her baby, was to see her mother’s grave.“Coffee, as usual?” The coffee server asked Ciara.He was an elderly man who seemed to have seen better years, Ciara almost felt pity for the man, but then again, he seemed to be doing what he loved.“Yes,
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury Acceptance, Finally
“Mr. and Mrs. Luscious, you are both under arrest,” the cops rounded up Ruby and Colt in their home a few days later.“We did nothing wrong!” Colt tried to play defensive, but it was already over for them.“Martin and Hayes have testified against you, Mr. Luscious,” one of the cops informed Ruby and Colt.“What about our daughter, Linda?” Ruby asked.“Mr. Samuel Fury decided not to charge her, but the both of you must answer for your grievous crimes,” the cop told them.Colt and Ruby hung their heads in shame and sadness as the cops handcuffed them and took them away.A month later, Samuel sat in the courtroom, waiting for the judge to pass her verdict on Colt and Ruby. They looked devastated, but Samuel was not moved. As he sat there, he felt relieved that he would be getting the justice he deserved, as well as Ciara Summers. Jess had tracked Hayes down when he was trying to run away, and had handed him over to the cops. A lot had happened since Ciara walked away and never returned,
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury What Truly Happened
“It happened two years ago…” Linda began as her mind drifted back to that day years ago.Linda was involved with a perverted old man. This was all because of how reckless she had been living.“Why don't you show me some love toots?” The old man crossed the line, touching her in ways that were unacceptable.“Stop it...” She did her best to resist the man’s grip and the two engaged in a struggle. Eventually, Linda drove her stiletto heel into his skull. The man plopped to the floor completely lifeless.Linda’s heart pounded as she stared at the lifeless body, “He’s dead.” Linda covered her mouth after realising that she had taken the old man’s life.“Think Linda, now is not the time to panic.” She took a series of deep breaths to calm herself as she wiped off her fingerprints from the heel. “What do I do now?” After a while, Linda called her mother.“Mom...” Her voice was shaky.“What is it?” Her mother asked, a hint of worry was evident in her voice.Linda shared her current predica
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury Another Dead End
Ciara waited patiently for Rudge to show up in the location that he sent to her. She was not agitated. She was not afraid. She just wanted to be fully and completely free. When it would happen, she would no longer live her life in bondage, or under the mercy of anyone, but she would know what happened that exact day, and she would be completely free, because Ciara knew that she did not kill that man. Ciara was not even capable of murder, and what happened with Lori’s baby had been a huge mistake. Ciara hadn’t thought of it before now, but she was certain now that Linda and her parents framed her and caused her to spend time in prison for a crime that she did not commit. She wouldn’t be surprised, because several times, aside from the incident that happened on Linda’s twentieth birthday party, there had been other cases that Linda had lied on Ciara, and Ciara had taken the fall for Linda’s recklessness.The only problem was that Ciara did not know exactly what happened.Once Rudge tel
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury Almost Free
Ciara was still shaken from the whole episode that happened at the cabin. She had been dazed for hours now, unable to react at all. Martin had meant to kill her. He would have driven the sharp knife into her stomach, and then, he would have killed not just her, but also her baby. Martin hadn’t called her to confess a thing to her. Instead, he had tricked her into coming just so that he could avenge the death of Lori and their baby.Suddenly, instinctively, abruptly, Ciara got out of her shock. She looked around frantically; she was back at the penthouse. Ciara jumped up as though the couch she sat on had caught fire.“How did I get back here?!” Ciara asked no one in particular, because she was alone in the living room. “Samuel?” She called out, but no response.She continued to turn around frantically until Jess arrived from the kitchen, carrying a glass of warm water.“Who are you and how did you get in here?” Ciara asked Jess as though she was about to launch an attack on her.“Don
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury We Are All Fucked
“Miss Luscious, this is not a risk I would advise you to take,” the doctor said to Linda.It was still morning, and Linda had left the house without her parent’s knowledge, but she knew that she had to do what needed to be done. Linda was still angry with her parents, especially with everything that was unfolding, and it was beginning to dawn on Linda the severity of the situation.“I have to do something,” Linda had said to herself the night before, “Because I cannot go down with my patients, because I wasn’t even there when they did most of what they did.”Linda had begun to make escape plans. For days now, she had been starving, although she usually sneaked into the kitchen, but it was usually almost futile, because she only met crumbs of canned food. Linda could not make coffee to save her life, because she had helps around the house for those things, but now that they were all gone, Linda could not recall the last time she had a proper meal.“I am too young to go down with my par
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury To Avenge
Ciara entered the cabin, and she was met with an eerie silence that threw her off balance. At first, she thought Martin had tricked her into coming to the cabin, because it looked and felt oddly deserted. “Hello?” Ciara called out calmly, not wanting to be too loud so that Samuel who was outside would not get the wrong signal.It was late and quiet, which meant that any noise at all was liable to travel far. “Is anyone home?” Ciara asked, but she remained rooted in her spot.She could not bring herself to even check the other parts of the cabin to be sure that it was completely empty, because somehow, even though Ciara could not explain it, there was something dreadfully dangerous about the cabin. It did not feel like the cabin that hosted her some weeks ago.“Is anyone home?” Ciara called out again, but she was met with absolute silence.Then her shoulders dropped in disappointment; Martin had tricked her into coming here. When would this ever end? Why did it always feel like Ciara
The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury You Are In Love!
Jess slipped into the car beside Samuel, replacing Ciara, and Samuel jumped in fright.“Jeez, you scared me!” Samuel said after he was able to catch his breath.“What is the fear for? You have been in worse situations, Samuel Fury, so why are you jumpy?” Jess asked and looked at Samuel, and she became more shocked when she saw that Samuel was visibly shaking and sweating. “Damn, Samuel, are you about to faint?” Jess could not help but ask.Jess looked at Samuel, seeing him vulnerable and scared to his bones for the very first time since she had known him, and it dawned on her that Samuel was this way, because Theresa went to the cabin on her own, in danger. There was no other logical explanation to why Samuel was acting as though he was being faced with death.“Oh, I see,” Jess said with a grin.Samuel looked at her, confused. “When you grin like that, you are being mischievous, and now is honestly not the time for that,” Samuel said, angry and irritated. “Don’t you read the room? Did
