Hazel’s POVMy heart raced when he popped the question and I just couldn’t get my eyes off the beautiful ring. It’s the exact ring I’ve always wanted except he made sure that it had a Diamond on it.I’ve been waiting for this day for so long and I should’ve known that they were planning something like this because of how sneaky they’ve been for the past weeks.“Incase you haven’t realized,” Damian started as he cleared his throat, jolting me out of my thoughts and daydream.“You haven’t given an answer yet.” He laughed and the rest joined in as I looked at them. I was so happy and whatever I wanted to reply with was stuck in my throat.The butterflies in my stomach had gone berserk and I could hear my heartbeat thumping away as I tried to get the words out of my mouth.“No.” I breathed and the sound of laughter that filled the air suddenly stopped.“No?” Damian asked, looking at me with wide eyes and raised eyebrows. I knew how long it took him to finally muster the courage to do this
Hazel’s POV“Damian, do you take Hazel to be your wife? Do you promise to be faithful to her in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love her and to honor her all the days of your life?” The priest asked.The hall fell silent as Damian took my hands and stared into my eyes, “I do.” He responded and that answer loosened some kind of knot in my stomach.“Hazel, do you take Damian to be your husband? Do you promise to be faithful to him in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love him and to honor him all the days of your life?”“I do.” I replied without hesitation, my eyes fixated on his lips and I just couldn’t wait for the priest to ask him to kiss me.“Now that you both have committed yourselves to your holy union and the sharing of rings, I now pronounce you husband and wife,” The priest affirmed and I could hear Alesha’s loud shriek from the audience.“You may now kiss the bride.” He added and that was just the moment I was waiting for. I closed my e
Hazel’s POV“You’re fired!” I heard my boss roar and all that I had in mind was running away. The blood gushing out of the side of his head was terrifying and what was more terrifying was the fact that I’d done that.I smirked as I hid my fear under a fake bravado, he could decide to press charges but I knew he wouldn’t, he had just tried to touch me inappropriately so pressing any charges wouldn’t really end well for him.“Good, because I fucking QUIT!” I yelled as I made my way out of his office, I could feel the eyes of my colleague following me but I didn’t care, I had bruises at the side of my lips from the slap I’d received from him for not cooperating.I should’ve seen the signs, I should’ve known something like this was bound to happen, I noticed him staring at me sexually and many times he would pass sexual advances to me, I didn’t think it was something to be worried about and that was where I got it all wrong.I walked to my car and decide to drive back home as fast as I co
Damian’s POV“Don’t shoot! Don’t fucking shoot!” I yelled, the room was foggy from the teargas they’d released and I could barely see. My house was under attack from the rival gang and they’d met her inside the house.She was pregnant and my life flashed right in front of my eyes when I heard the sound of gunshot followed by the revving sound of vehicles driving off.“No, no,” I crawled to her side and there she was, covered in her own pool of blood, she was laying there cold and my blood dried as I stared at her.My world stood completely still. Nothing moved. Not even the sound of the receding car and the footsteps of the man that had just pulled the trigger made a sound as they all left my compound. Colors faded as I felt my chest tighten in pain, anger and my blood boiled with revenge.A cold, shivering wind blew on the back of my neck and ears like the touch of cold fingers. Suddenly, my whole world seemed unnaturally dark like all the lights went out when Mia breathed her last b
Hazel’s POV“I just can’t do it, Alesha. Stripping in front of hundreds of eyes is against my moral standard.” I fumed as I paced about the sitting room.Alesha had just gotten off from her shift and had told me her club was in need of a stripper, I know she saw nothing wrong with it but I do. I’m not just prepared to allow those hungry men see me naked.“You don’t have to pull the whole thing off,” she explained and my eyes widened again, “you could still leave your bra and panties on if you’re not comfortable with pulling it all off.” She added and it was as though a bell was ringing in my head.“JUST LISTEN TO YOURSELF, ALESHA. DO IT IF YOU WANT TO! I’M OUT!” I yelled as I picked up my phone to leave for my room. I really am desperate for a job but not that desperate.“You don’t think I’ve tried? I work as a waitress there already, it’s not open for people like me anymore. Besides it’s going to be in the VIP room, no one is really allowed in there asides the big names.” She added a
Damian’s POV“Kill him.” I ordered as I cracked my fingers and turned my back at the man that was already bleeding profusely and at the verge of death but still somehow begging to not be killed.“Please, Boss. Please, I promise I would stop working for them and—““So you admit you’re working for them while also working for me?” I asked, not turning to look at him as I spoke, he’d just ratted us out to our rival gang and he had the nerve to deny.He’d just shot himself in the leg when all I did was just a little bit of torture.I turned to look at him and I was satisfied at the realization he had on his face, he didn’t know when he blew his own whistle.I looked at his hand on the table and even that sight too was also pleasing, I’d only chopped three of fingers off, I wanted to do more but I had a dinner date with my mother, keeping her waiting was one thing I detested doing.“Please boss. They offered me a lot of—“ I didn’t let him finish his statement when I pulled the trigger, shoo
Damian’s POVI angrily made my way out of the house as I walked to my car, I’d placed a call to one of my men and since I needed to let some steam off, I had him prepare a few things.“Yeah, get her too.” I answered as I hung up the call, I stood for a while to smoke my cigarette and I kicked the little trash can outside the house angrily.“Son of a bitch!” I growled as I walked to my car and got in, I ordered that I be taken back to the apartment set aside for my sex slave.We got there in nothing less than minutes and I found the one I’d tied up still waiting for me on the bed, I looked around to see the other coming out of the bathroom.“You know what to do now, get to work.” I let out in a groan as I got on the bed and took off the blindfold of the other girl, she got closer to me and took in my scent, something about that made my cock kick even harder.“You too.” I whispered as I laid on the bed and the girl who’d just got out of the bathroom came on to join us and help pull my c
Hazel’s POVThe sound of the girls moaning and the sight of them pleasuring Damian was excruciatingly painful, I’d stood to leave but I was stopped by the men at the door, unable to do anything I went back to the chair I’d sat on earlier.“what are you doing?” I said but it came out in a whisper as one of the men starts tying me up, I looked up to see Damian smirk and I could immediately tell that this was his own way of punishing me for being rude to him.I swallowed down hard as I forced the bile at the back of my throat to go down, he’d signaled to one of the girls to come to me.The sight of her juicy pussy and the pinkness of it sent me into a haze, she rubbed it slightly and I could see her liquid drip as she brought her fingers to her mouth to lick it.I felt a slight drip under my panties, I had no idea what that was. I’d never been in a situation like this before, I only watch porn and slightly satisfy myself by myself but this was different, I wanted things done to me and wh

Damian’s POV Everything died down and I finally got a hold of all of my properties. Lucas survived the hit but is still in the hospital under custody. I made sure that Theodore went to jail too because if I had to handle things by myself I would’ve killed him.I couldn’t stop thinking about what Callum said about Hazel having a long list of what she wanted her dream wedding to be like and now I want to make sure that it’s exactly the same way.“Callum!” I called and he came walking towards me, he’s been discharged from the hospital and since he knew nothing much about the outside world I decided to give him a little surprise.“Damian and I have something we’d like to share with you.” Hazel started as she turned to look at me and I nodded slightly as I walked towards him and placed my arm around his neck while we both walked out with Asher behind us.“You’ve been talking about your education and since you don’t want to go to a real school we decided to hire a professional teacher for
Hazel’s POV2 MONTHS LATERThe last two months were horrific for all of us, Damian and I at the brink of death. Asher’s kidnap and everything going on. We were lucky to not have had it all get to the press before it got curbed.“I’m glad it’s all over.” I sighed as I laid down beside Damian and placed my head on his chest.He was mad at me for jumping into the scene and it took a lot more than just apologizing to finally get him to stop being mad at me.“Yeah, me too,” he responded, his lips meeting mine as he cuddled me, “what do you say we go to see Callum tomorrow?” He asked and my eyes beamed.Callum is finally recovering and the last time we went to see him the doctor told us that not only has he been responding to treatment, he’s been able to move his hands and legs slowly too.I couldn’t wait to see him, I had no idea how he’s going to react when he sees me for the first time in almost fifteen years.“What do you think?” Damian’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts as I shifted

Damian’s POVEverything I tried to stop Hazel from crying proved futile and I knew that Theodore and Lucas just wouldn’t stop at only holding Asher hostage.Given the history between Lucas and Hazel, he might try to come for her too and that was why I’d ordered all of my trusted men to guard the hospital and her room.“We have to find Asher, I made a promise that I intend to fulfil and I will not stop until I have both their heads in my hand.” I said through gritted teeth as I paced around.Isaac had laid down bunches of suggestions but none of them seemed to work for me until my eyes landed on the piece of paper in front of me.“I have a plan.” My voice echoed in the silence as Isaac lifted his gaze to look at me with a raised eyebrow while a slight smirk formed on my face.Theodore won’t be able to resist this.My mother had let it out already that Theodore isn’t my real father and the only reason he agreed to get married to her was because of the mouthwatering benefits it came with
Hazel’s POVDropping Asher off at school, I went over to Alesha’s place so that I could give her an update on what had happened between Damian and I.“I told you you both would work things out.” She shrieked and I could tell that she was really happy for me as she pulled me in a hug. I never thought Gray’s fashion house was this big until I saw Alesha’s working place.She seemed like she was the main brain behind some of the designs and I was extremely happy for her too.“Alesha, we need the designs you’ve prepared so that we can start working on it and are you still down for dinner…”He was still talking, his eyes fixated on his iPad and when he looked up he was shocked to see that Alesha had a visitor.He was handsome, chiseled jaw and dark brown eyes with hairs that stayed just above his eyebrows. Alesha had damn good taste.“I’ll come back later.” He sighed before walking out of her office and I turned to see my best friend's eyes closed. I thought that we were friends but I had
Damian’s POVStaring down at her beautiful body beside me, I couldn’t help but let out a slight smile. I love her so much and ignoring her for those days did more harm to me than I initially thought it would.She’ll always remain the highlight of my life and for as long as I live I knew that I would always love her. The way she slept so peacefully beside me.It was almost as though she trusted me enough to keep her away from whatever danger might be coming her way while she slept.Groaning and stretching, she pulled out her arm and her beautiful face rose before falling right back on my chest.Trying to get my thoughts right, I tried to think of ways that I could get the rest of my properties back from Lucas and my father without putting Hazel or Asher’s life in danger.I knew how much danger they’re in already and causing even more was the last thing I wanted to do.Sighing, my eyes soon felt tired and it didn’t take long for it to close immediately.***The blaring sound of my phone
Hazel’s POV “Damian… please.” I stuttered, my lips quivering as I tried to set myself free. Groaning, I realized that I’ve already been set free from the bondage.My eyes opened slightly and I winced at the effect of how bright my room was. I’d thought that all these while I’ve been in a dream but my half naked body made me realize that it wasn’t a dream.Looking down at myself, I had a new nightgown on and the panty I had on wasn’t the one I had on the previous day. I rubbed my thighs together and I could still feel the moisture.Wincing, I stood from the bed and made my way to the mirror, the hickeys were visible and the beautiful bruises that I usually love on my ass were there except this time I didn’t really like it.The torture last night was so much that I’d passed out. Damian was still mad at me, he still thinks that I didn’t tell him about Lucas because I was trying to keep the truth away from him.Dejected, I made my way out of the room and searched the entire building for
