The Contract Bride: Falling For Fury Under Arrest
Ciara stared at Johnway’s dead body in his pool of blood in utter shock. She could not believe what she was seeing. She bent over slightly to take a look at him and she realized that his throat had been slit. His blood had congealed, and the slit on his throat did not seem fresh at all, which only means that he wasn’t recently attacked. Also, he had already begun to smell; the exact smell Ciara perceived when she stepped into his apartment.So with such retching smell, Ciara’s stomach rumbled again and she threw up, right beside Johnway’s body and blood. Ugh, she was very disgusted now, and everything just seemed to be very irritating. If Johnway is murdered barely twenty-four hours after attempting to help her, then someone knew she was in her hometown. Ciara’s first instinct went to Samuel Fury, but in as much as she knew that he was brutal and ruthless, she did not think he was that heartless to take someone’s life in cold blood. Besides, she already suspected him of something rel

Samuel held his mother’s weak hand tightly, but also tenderly at the same time as the doctor examined her.After what she had told him, his mother had slipped into unconsciousness. Samuel had quickly called his doctor and asked him to come over to the house for a medical examination. With his mother’s condition, there was no way he could comfortably transport her to the hospital, or maybe Samuel’s fear was that she would die before he even reached the hospital. Samuel continued checking her pulse to ensure that she was still breathing every second before the doctor arrived.“Should we take her upstairs to her room?” Samuel had asked immediately the doctor stepped into the main house.“She has been lying here, hasn’t she?” the doctor asked.“Yes, I did not want to lift her up and get something wrong in her system by doing so, so I just left her here to rest while waiting for you,” Samuel explained.“Then I will examine her here first and see what is wrong,” The doctor informed Samuel.

“I did not murder anyone!” Ciara yelled from behind bars.Her heart was pounding. Her breathing was faster than normal. Ciara feared that she was having anxiety attack, and of course, PTSD. Then there was the worry about her baby, but the cops were more hostile and adamant than Ciara had ever known.“Please!” Ciara called out. There was no way she could tolerate going to prison for the third time in just a couple of months. She did not kill Johnway, and it would truly hurt Ciara to go to jail for something she was completely innocent for.Again.“This is a capital offense, ma’am,” one of the cops told Ciara harshly. “Johnway was a decent hardworking citizen whose life you snuffed out gruesomely.”“I swear, I have no hand in it. You can confirm from the hotel I lodged. I got there barely an hour before the cops arrived, and Johnway has been dead hours before that,” Ciara explained frantically, but the look on his face shows that he was obviously not buying her words.“I suggest you sa

Ruby flipped through the medical file of Ciara’s mother, a wicked smile playing on her lips as she sat on the comfortable couch in the rented apartment in Ciara’s hometown.Colt and Linda were also present, as well as Hayes and Martin.“The little wench thought she was smatter,” Ruby said. “How dare she begin to dig up matters that have been buried already?” Linda looked at Ruby with pride. She could not be more proud of her mother than she was now. Ruby was fearless and fierce, and she handled issues with vigor. The moment Colt had received a call from Martin that Ciara was snooping around, she had swung right into action, and also, in the next couple of hours, they had all arrived at the hometown. According to Ruby, in taking care of Ciara, they needed to be closely within range to avoid matters running out of control.But when Linda turned and looked at Hayes and Martin where they stood before them, she noticed that Martin was shaking and sweating.“What is wrong with you?” Linda

“I cannot leave without that file,” Ciara said stubbornly as they drove out of her hometown. She had been saying these exact words to Samuel for the umpteenth time, but he was deliberating ignoring her and pretending not to hear what she was saying.“Please,” Ciara begged. She was hundred percent certain that when she was arrested, her mother’s file had been in her backpack, and now, they were not there. “It is not enough that you are having an affair outside our marriage and you even had to murder him, now you are talking to me about going back? Do you have an idea the strings I had to pull to get you out of there?” Samuel’s voice was taut was anger.Ciara was taken aback by the tone of his voice. “I am innocent,” Ciara said even though she knew that it was as good as pointless.“Why, Ciara?” Samuel eventually turned to her and asked.It was the first time that Samuel was calling her name. It was the first time that Samuel was actually calling her name without yelling or raising the

“That cannot be true!” Ciara cried out. She could not believe her ears. She was here barely twenty-four hours ago, and she was certain that Lottie had been the one who had attended to her, so what the heck was she saying about not knowing Ciara?“I don’t want a scene here,” Lottie said. She was struggling to keep her voice from trembling. “Perhaps there was another receptionist on duty when she came here?” Samuel asked. He was growing impatient as the seconds ticked by.“No sir, I am the only receptionist who has been working here all week,” Lottie said.“But it cannot be true that you do not recognize me, Lottie!” Ciara was confused and perplexed, and she deliberately mentioned her name so that she would know. How is it possible that a hotel, even though it wasn’t a luxurious one, would hire someone with dementia? Lottie’s gaze darted sideways again. Something was making her agitated, and now that she had denied Ciara, she could see that Lottie was a bit uncomfortable and restless.

“You are toast, Ciara.”Ciara could not get those cold words from Samuel out of her head. Everything had fallen more apart than she had anticipated. She had lost everything more now, and what was worse, she might end up in prison again, and this time around, forever. Nobody would be there to save her, and since she saw Samuel, he hadn’t said anything about his mother, Aunt Mary.Indeed, Ciara was toast.As they drove back to the city, Ciara could not help but think about how pathetic her life was. She was in a deep shit, and just when she thought she was doing any better or making headway, something just comes up and ruins it. Maybe she should have just let sleeping dogs lie when she realized that she did not even know what made her mother sick, but then again, she could not fault herself for letting curiosity get the better part of her.This was her mother they were talking about.The same woman that made her do the dirty thing she did with the supposed dying man as negotiated by the

Ruby had returned after taking the call and hearing Ciara’s frantic cry over the phone about her mother’s failing health and she had rushed Ciara’s mother to the medical house in Ciara’s hometown.“Why not a hospital?” Ciara had summoned courage and challenged Ruby when they had arrived at the medical house. With the worsened condition of her mother, she had thought that Ruby would take her mother to a big hospital where she would get better treatment and bounce back to life in no time. Ciara had been so worried about her mother’s health that what she saw on their living room table had almost evaded her.Before Ruby arrived at their house, that glass of liquid hadn’t been there at all, which then made Ciara think that that could be the reason why her mother’s health failed drastically. Granted, her mother had been sick, but she was still going about her daily activities, but after that visit on that particular day, she had just completely almost turned into a vegetable.“This is where

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
