Jacobs

He cursed loudly and threw the glass at the wall. “Why the fuck?” No one had the answers but the doctor.

He waited in the drawing room, pacing from one corner to another, waiting for the doctor who was checking up on Natalie. The foolish girl had actually slit her wrist. And that too with a scissor.

He had intended to scare her, but not this much. Did she really want to die?

He closed his eyes. He didn’t want to know the answers.

The doctor came out and told the maid about her meds.

“How is she? Was it severe?” Jacobs was impatient.

Dr. Knight knew Jacobs and had hidden several secrets of this businessman, but it was the first time that he was handling a case of suicide for Jacobs.

He motioned for Jacobs to sit down. Jacobs’ breath was uneven. He was hell bent on revenge, but he didn’t want Natalie’s death on his hands.

“She is fragile. Her cheek had a bruise. She is hurt in the leg already. I had told you that her injury was delicate, and yet it was bleeding again. Will you ca

    TheodoreHe sat in his drawing room with the legal team, when Benjamin barged in, cursing, “What in the fucking hell you think you are doing, Theodore? Are you out of your mind?”He came in and Theo saw that he was not alone. His father, Jonathan Gilbert, followed his elder son, and entered his younger son’s house.Theo sighed. “Why are you screaming for no reason?” He was calm.William sat on the other end of the couch, his hands crossed, and clearly not in a mood to indulge in Theo’s stupidity. He had tried to, after telling him everything what had happened at Hanson’s house, and Theo had made a decision.Theo’s eyes travelled to William who didn’t look away and confirmed Theo’s suspicion that it was William who had told Benjamin and Theo’s family of his plan.“For no reason? You are set to put fire to your years of hard work, and you think I should be calm.” Benjamin was heaving and throwing daggers at Theodore. Indeed, Theo’s plan was reckless. But he was not going to back down.H

    NatalieNatalie looked at herself. The dress had arrived and Natalie had donned it.Her eyes were dark and she had no light in them.Being a bride wasn’t something she had ever dreamed of. Yes, she wanted brides to feel the best on their most special day, but when it comes to oneself, she always wanted to be with someone who will make her smile, who will make her happy, who will understand her, and yet, she was stuck with God knows whom, with her life not in her control.She thought about Theodore. She had never planned a future with him, but now all of her thoughts were wandering to him. She had betrayed him, in one or other way. When he wanted her body, he had been honest. When he wanted more than that, he had told her. He told her a lot many times that he loved her, but she never believed him.Now the result was that she was among people who couldn’t be trusted at all.She was feeling like a puppet. The maid came and Natalie was taken downstairs. The ceremony was going to be in the

    TheodoreTheodore knew that they will find reluctance while entering Jacobs’ place, and it happened. William wanted to accompany Theodore, and so did Benjamin, but they weren’t going to be any help. Still, they were there with Theodore.Theodore just wanted to reach as soon as he could. He hadn’t even shaved. He was still in his last night’s clothes.When Jacobs’ men stopped him, Theodore didn’t stop. “Your boss is awaiting my arrival.” He spoke, and didn’t even wait for them to confirm, because he knew the answer.He entered and found that only a few minutes and he would have lost Natalie. His breath was hitched when he saw her in a wedding gown. That gown wasn’t meant for her. It was an off-the-rack dress. She deserved a custom wedding dress.“I object to this wedding and I don’t even have to give a fucking reason.”Everyone turned around to see him and his men. Natalie had tears in her eyes. Theodore’s eyes narrowed when he saw the bandage on her wrist. He looked at William for an

    NatalieHe must be joking, Natalie thought. He can’t do that, Can he?“Now, you are talking.” Jacobs smiled and Natalie wanted to reach out to Theo and stop him. She stood up, but William’s hand on her shoulder tightened.“What the hell are you doing?” Nicholas Archer was getting restless. Natalie wanted to stuff her shoe in his mouth. The man was like a pebble in all of their shoes. If it had not been for him, Jacobs would have never entered the scenario.“Let’s talk…. And see what else Theodore has to offer in lieu of this whore of a woman.” Natalie closed her eyes at his crude words.“He will regret.” William whispered beside her. Natalie was confused that why everyone was so relaxed.Everything was running like a haze in front of her eyes, Theo had cut it very fine. What if he had been five or ten minutes late? Why is he offering everything he has? Why isn’t his brother saying anything?She sighed. Her life was getting dramatic by every minute.It was second time that Theodore had

    Theodore Theodore spoke calmly, “I had an ace up my sleeve, Hanson. You have lost.” Eight hours ago Theodore was ready to sacrifice everything if he had to, to get Natalie freed. But when he was talking to his father, he thought about the entire trail. From where it all started. It had started four years back when he had slept with Jacobs’ fiancée, Tara. It was an instinct that Theodore called his private investigator, and asked him to search for this particular person. Apart from that night, he had never seen Tara, but he knew a few things about Hanson. One of them was that he was worse than even cavemen when it came to women. He wanted his women pious. In fact, a few years back, one of his girlfriends had filed a suit against him, because he was very dominating, possessive, and even domestically violent. He had broken her hand for shaking hands with another man. It had sown a thought in Theo’s mind. “What would have Jacobs done to a woman who was engaged to him and yet had sle

    NatalieNatalie remembered how she felt leaving Theo alone. His father and brother were there, but it was dangerous for him to be here.“What about Theo?” She asked William as they were exiting.He looked at her with a puzzled expression. “Do you really care? Or is it just your guilt that you have put all of us in danger?”Natalie didn’t retort, because Willliam was right. She had indeed been selfish. It was one thing to run away from Theodore, but it was different to run in the arms of his enemy without knowing the truth. Not that she knew about Jacobs, but it was reckless of her to believe the first man who told her that he was going to help her.The gates opened as the car ran on the driveway, out of the cage, and Natalie’s first emotion should have been to be happy, happy because she was free, but she was not. Her mind was only thinking about the man who had given her this freedom.She rested her head on the headrest and tried to sleep. She had a lot many questions to ask, but she

    NatalieNatalie woke up with a caress on her cheek, and immediately sat up. In her dream, it was Jacobs who was touching her. She immediately sat up and screamed, “Don’t you dare touch me.”Her eyes opened and she found William seated on the bed. Concern was written all over his face.Natalie was sweating and her heartbeats were racing. She was still feeling prickly all over, dreading Jacobs’ touch. “Nat, You okay? Did the bastard do anything?” William asked in a soft voice.Seeing her brother so worried made her heart clench. “I am fine.” She spoke, and drank some water.She sat beside him, and let the silence surround them. She was tired as hell. She had no idea how much the tension of the past few days was burdening her shoulders. When she found the safety of home, she couldn’t feel anymore relaxed.“Will you tell me how come you landed in Hanson’s lap?” His question was not well-worded but Natalie didn’t want to fight William. She told him everything, how he had sown the seed of

    TheodoreIt was over. Everything was over.Theo was back home with his father and Benjamin.Natalie was safe. Jacobs was gone. Theodore had already settled everything for Luke Thompson.Now that he was back home, he looked back at the past few days. He had lost, he cried, he begged, and even prayed to God in the few days when he didn’t have Natalie by his side.Time had really played games with him. One morning, he was happy. The same night, he was a beggar. His heart had been shattered. And by whom? The woman he loved.He had taken a great risk yesterday. God blessed him that his hunch paid off. Else what? What would he had done? Yes, he would have freed Natalie at any cost. But what if he had been late? It made him shiver, just thinking of her as someone else’s bride.The picture of Natalie in a wedding gown was imprinted on his mind. It was the second time, he had seen her in a wedding dress, and she wasn’t beside him.The idea of making her his bride was exciting. It made him smil

    Author's POV“Please, please, please, say yes.” It was Theo on the line and Natalie was looking at the fabric for the tables at a wedding.The news had been spread that Shane McCartney had hired “We Do” for his ceremony and the orders were piling up. Natalie was drowned to neck in work.“Sorry, baby. I have so much work.”“It’s just a weekend. We will fly to Paris on Friday…” But Natalie cut him off.“Sorry, baby.”Theodore sighed. “Ok, did you have dinner?”Natalie refused.“OK, then. I am bringing Chinese.” He spoke, and Natalie asked. “Will you feed me?”Theodore smiled. “Of course, I will.”Natalie was smiling as she hung up. Theo was the most supportive man she had seen. He never complained about her work but encouraged her. He himself worked odd hours after all.It had only been a month and he had made her move in with him. Her father had no objections to their dating now. Theodore’s family had come onboard too. Ashley was a little icy, but Natalie knew that she will win her ove

    NatalieDesire was heavy in her belly.She was losing herself as Theo’s expert mouth kissed her neck and made love to her breasts. He always liked her breasts and when he sucked on them after so long, Natalie came violently. She couldn’t help it. She was hot all over and he was not helping her at all, by kissing her breasts and fucking her with his finger at the same time.“Please fuck me, Theo. Please. I need you.”She almost sobbed and Theo obliged.She saw him with hooded eyes as he carefully ran the head of his cock against her wet pussy lips. Their eyes met, and he pushed himself inside her warm channel. She felt full to the brim as his large cock invaded her pussy.“Ahhhh……” She moaned and closed her eyes.Her hands reached for his and their fingers entwined.“It feels good, Theo. It feels so good.” She opened her eyes and he bent over her to kiss her.He started moving inside her and Natalie couldn’t help but moan as his cock’s girth rubbed on her pussy walls, making her squeez

    TheodoreThe place was dark. He had not turned on any lights. The only lights he could see was at the LA’s skyline and the sparkling stars in the sky.He sipped the whiskey and let it burn.He was drinking since the moment he had dropped Natalie back at her place. It had taken him great self-control to just sit in the car and not walk her to the door. To not ask her to let him enter and push her against the next wall. To not take her lips in his and kiss the hell out of her, kiss her so bad that her mind will remember only one name and that’s Theo. To not tell her that the wait was killing him and he couldn’t bear it anymore. To not tell her how much he loved her.Theo had controlled. He had come here, because the last night he had spent here with her was all he had.He had come here with the hope that her scent must be lingering. But it was gone. The place was cleaned.The time spent with her today had been pure torture. He had to act like a stranger to her. His fingers were twitchin

    NatalieNatalie had no trouble explaining as Mindy asked her questions. Shane might be a celebrity player, but they were going to have a modest wedding with only close family and friends.Mindy was very clear about what she wanted and Natalie helped her with it.“Let me call Shane.” Mindy spoke and went out, leaving Natalie alone with Shane’s mother, who had some wonderful insights on the wedding planning. After all, she was also dreaming of her son’s wedding for years.“So, how long do you know Theodore?” His mother asked.Natalie thought about it and then answered truthfully. “A few months.”“And what do you think about him?”The question wasn’t unexpected. After hearing her thoughts at the lunch, Natalie had figured out that his mother wanted them to be an item.“I don’t think I know him enough to form an opinion. You know him much better than I do, I guess. What do you say? Is the guy worth one risking the heart?”It was a bold question and made Shane’s mother smile. “I know him s

    TheodoreNatalie was looking breathtaking as always. Although, she was pale and skinny, and he wanted to know why.But he guessed that it was not his place to ask her personal questions. He didn’t say much about the twinning comment too.The ride to Shane’s place was an emotional roller-coaster for him. There had been many rides in the past with Natalie, but this time, he couldn’t hold her hand. He couldn’t tell her that he wanted to kiss her beautiful lips, he wanted to let her know that she looked elegant in that attire, and that he was losing control.Shane was warm as always. He came from a modest family. He had lost his father to a cardiac arrest a few years back. It was just his mother now. His elder brother lived in Connecticut with his family.Shane and Theodore had been attracted towards each other in college due to the fact that Theodore was reserved. He was among a pretentious crowd, the kids of the families like his who believed that Yale was made for them.Shane was a sch

    NatalieShe hung up and came back to the table where William looked at her with raised brows over his glass of wine.“What’s the matter?”Natalie was red with anger. “That friend of yours. Guess where he is?”“Where?” William asked.“Control. That gentleman is raiding the corridors of Control when I am nervous here. When I am thinking that I wronged the man I love, he is fucking other women there.”“How do you know that’s what he is doing?”Natalie huffed at the question. “What else he must be doing?”She was angry. So much angry and she had no idea why she was feeling that way. She didn’t want to cry but they threatened her eyes. How could he? Has he moved on? Does he not love her anymore? The idea of him touching other women was repulsive and made Natalie anxious. She couldn’t take it. The jealousy was flowing through her blood right now. She blew air through her mouth and asked William, “Did I push him too far, Will? Does he not love me anymore?”“Oh, my fucking God, Nat. Are yo

    TheodoreIt was a Friday night and Theodore had nothing better to do. He gulped down the bitter cognac and looked around but Lionel wasn’t anywhere.In the past few months, Theodore had not visited “Control” at all. First, he loved Natalie and there were no women here now who could interest him.After the first few days after Jacobs, Theo had a faint hope in his heart that Natalie will call him. She will come to see him. But until now, she had not even tried to establish any contact with him. He had tried his best not to come across her. Because if she didn’t want to see him, he will not bother her.It was hard getting over her. For him, she was the only one. Her beautiful smile was the first thing he still saw when he woke up. He had a beautiful picture of hers framed and set on his bedside.Now, he was all alone, and was wondering if she will ever come to him.But then it happened. His phone buzzed. He pulled it out and his heart skipped a beat.It was her. She was calling him. Afte

    NatalieIt had been a month since Natalie was working at “We Do” and she had realized that she was better as an intern than the CEO. There were a lot many things that she had to manage now and she was trying to juggle like an expert.Right now, she was in the meeting because no matter what they did, the revenues were stubborn and stuck at the bottom.“The number of orders is still at a very low point. What are we supposed to do to increase them? Our existing strategies aren’t working.”Natalie was chewing the tail of the pencil, then she recalled how she had come to know about Keira.She spoke out of the blue. “All we need is one celebrity wedding.”Everyone was silent and looked at her. She looked at the expectant faces and elaborated. “Keira gained fame overnight after she bagged Nora Thorne’s wedding contract. All we need is that one person who is a celebrity and set to marry this year. Since our LA is bustling with celebrities, we need to bag just one person from the Stripe and I

    TheodoreThe car stopped and Theo looked at the building. The evening was chilly and dark and there were only a few people lurking around. He took in the shabby building and sighed. This place could never look great even with all the Christmas lights on it.He exited the car and asked the driver to wait.It was a place where Theodore couldn’t leave his Jaguar unattended.He buttoned up his suit jacket and looked around. The silence was everywhere.Theodore was expected here, and he took the few stairs to the building.The guard asked him to enter his details and then guided him through a door.Officer Marshal met him at the desk and stood up to shake Theodore’s hand.“He is right where you wanted him to be.” He informed Theodore and then guided him to a room upstairs. Outside the door, leaning on the wall was everything that Theodore wanted. A thick metal rod, a hockey stick, a baseball bat, a whip, and a cricket bat.“Which one do you need?” Officer Marshal asked.Theodore looked at
