Theodore Theo was so glad he had not waited for Natalie’s reply. He was so desperate to see her that he had sent her a text saying he will be over at her place with Chinese, because he wanted to spend another wonderful evening with her, not fucking her, but admiring her, looking at her beautiful face, listening to her tinkling laugh, watch her eat, or tie her hair up. He had picked food and was almost at her place when he saw a car full of guys teasing a girl. His temperature rose up. He was quite at a distance and his first thought was to never get involved in this matter, but for heaven’s sake, it was a girl. It’s LA, the city of sin, and he was already a sinner. He had no mood to add one more sin to his name, leaving a girl to a pair of douchebags. But when he was closer, he saw the face of the girl as the two dickheads tried to get her in the car. It was then when Theo’s restraints broke. He had broken them. He was a wild animal now. He just pushed the accelerator and crashed
NatalieNatalie knew that she will have to let Theodore go home even when she wanted someone to desperately to stay with her. She didn’t want to spend the night alone.The mere thought of what would have happened if he hadn’t come was terrifying her. He had materialized like a knight in shining armor and had saved her.The entire time he was with her, he was a complete gentleman. Whenever he was out of that penthouse of his, he was a different man, as if he had multiple personality disorder. There was this gentle side of him, and then there was the man she had met the very first time, the powerful wolf, and then there is him in the bedroom, a total beast who made her wanna lower her head and push out her bottom to spank her or take her or do whatever he wants to do with her.She waved him bye; he kissed her good night on the cheek and left.The next morning, she was ready for work on time, and when she arrived at “Dream Wedding”, the atmosphere seemed different. She felt as if everyon
TheodoreTheo was in the gym waiting for William, and he came storming.“Oooooo, someone’s got a chilli up his arse.” Theodore chuckled, but William’s stride didn’t stop and he stood right in front of Theodore, face red, and eyes bulging, the vein in his forehead was popping out.“Everything okay, Will?” Theodore asked.William had newspaper in his hand which he thrust on Theo’s chest. Theo wanted to punch him in the face for behaving so rudely, but he clenched his teeth and looked down at the paper. Straightening it with both hands, he read the news, and closed his eyes, pinching the bridge on his nose with his finger and thumb.“Explain what you are doing with my sister when every morning I hear another news about your wedding planning.”Theo knew that Wiliam’s anger was justified.“It’s not what it looks like.” Theo spoke calmly, while his mind tried to stir up some story and he came with a plausible one.“Ahan, I would like to hear.” William crossed his hands and urged Theodore to
NatalieNatalie had spotted Kim and Theo and she wanted to keep her distance. It was a relief that Kim had not come pounding on her door. But then it would have meant that she considered Natalie her adversary, which she wasn’t and didn’t want Kim to believe as much.She kept to her corner. Benjie and Malcolm were happy and when they arrived on the floor for their first dance as a wedding couple, Natalie couldn’t stop her tears. There was a couple in front of her who had fought all odds to marry each other, and there is her, who has no one other than a guy who is engaged to marry someone else. Not that she wanted Theo for herself, but this wedding was making her cry more than making her happy.She saw Kim and Theo dancing after a while and wanted to run away, not because she was jealous, but due to the fact that the guilt lay heavily on her conscience.Benjie asked her to dance and she had to oblige him. They were dancing and didn’t realize that they had reached near Kim and Theo.Nata
Theodore He felt guilty as he reached home without Kim. But he didn’t want to stay there anymore. He poured himself a large whiskey and retired to the study. The day was beautiful, and yet there was a cloud of gloom over his head. His mind wasn’t working and he wanted to close his eyes and lie down with his head in Natalie’s lap. That’s the name. Natalie. She is the reason why his life was turning upside down, and after a long while, Theo was thinking that he doesn’t care. He didn’t. These days, he had thrown all caution and care to the wind and wanted to do what his heart told him, and that was to grab Natalie and kiss the hell out of her, squeeze her in his arms, press his head against her bosom, and feel the serenity. His loneliness was disturbed by Kim. Her heels clicked on the hardwood floor. She was clapping. Theodore swirled his chair to face her. “Very well, you made quite a fool of me in front of everyone, Theodore Gilbert. You left me alone.” She pressed her palms hard
Theodore Kim must be stunned, Theodore thought as he hung up the phone after inviting Kim for dinner at his place. He had tried to drown himself in work for the past week and so, and everytime he tried to discover in his heart what he wanted, the answer was always the same. It both terrified and excited Theodore. He was throwing his image away. Until now, he was the youngest, responsible, sensible, hard-working son of his father. This marriage was going to put him on the same pedestal as Jonathan, but now, he was not sure what he wanted to do. Theodore knew nothing about cooking. He had a housekeeper who took care of everything. So, when he was putting the dish on table and Kim walked in on that scene, witnessing him in an apron must have given her a wrong idea. “Did you cook for me?” She was smiling and Theo was feeling like a jerk for what was about to come. “Nope. You know I can’t do that. I just heated up the food.” “Oh, where is Olga?” “I gave her night off.” Theo removed
NatalieNatalie had cleared her exams and even though, she didn’t top her class, she had straight A and A+. When she rung Keira to share the news, she was told that she no longer had a job at “Dream Weddings” because she had broken the policy and had been in an illegitimate relationship with a client. If she won’t bother them again, they will forget it and her misconduct will not be reported.Natalie was shocked, stunned, and hurt, because Keira had promised that she will reinstate Natalie. Natalie wanted to cry but what was the point.She had no one to talk to, because Sammy was at her parents’ place in Nevada and Malcolm and Benjie were on their honeymoon.As for Theodore, he had not contacted her and somewhere in her heart, Natalie was glad. She didn’t want to cause any stirrups in Theo and Kim’s relationship.Being the cause of a breakup or a divorce is the worst, Natalie always believed so.She was sad too, because she was a mere human, and she knew that Kim wasn’t the right girl
NatalieShe cried, thought about her situation, cried again, and thought some more. She had indeed become the reason of someone’s pain. She never wanted to hurt Kim. She had never believed that Theo will fall for her. Wasn’t it the most important condition of their arrangement that they will never fall in love? But what was the point of dwelling on everything when the damage was done?Natalie rubbed her face with her palms and cursed her life. It was 4:32 am and she was sleepless. God only knew what the next day would bring in her life.The next day came and brought with it a flurry of unexpected events in Natalie’s life. Because the gossip section of every LA newspaper bore the big and broad headline.“Gilber-Garcia Wedding No More: Natalie Greene Murdered the Relation”Natalie was not a morning newspaper person, but when the first knock on her door landed at 7:30 in the morning, she grudgingly woke up and opened the door.A man thrust a mic in her direction, and Natalie immediately
