A smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I realized that sometimes the simplest of choices could yield the most remarkable results.

    Just as Drew's footsteps drew nearer, a wave of panic washed over me when I heard Cullen's mother's voice calling out to him from the hallway. The sound resonated through the air, piercing the fragile bubble of secrecy we had created."Yes, Mum, I'm coming," Cullen's voice carried from the hallway, providing a temporary reprieve from the impending danger.

    "Yes, they are. I have a dedicated and capable team who have been with me for a while now. I've entrusted them with the store's operations, and they've proven themselves to be reliable and skilled. I'm grateful for their support."Cullen nodded, visibly relieved by my response. "Okay, if you say so," he replied, accepting my reassurance. With that, our conversation seamlessly transitioned into lighter topics, allowing us to enjoy the serenity of our surroundings.The leisurely stroll continued, providing me with a renewed sense of ease and contentment.

    "Shhh... they might hear you," he whispered, looking up at me briefly before burying his head on my chest once again. His actions were accompanied by an intensity that was both hard and rough, his lips and tongue exploring my breasts with fervor. He suckled and nibbled with a passionate hunger, occasionally using his palm to caress and handle my other breast, adding a touch of controlled strength to our intimate encounter.Just as our desires reached a peak, a knock echoed through the door, causing us to immediately freeze in our movements. "Who's there?" I called out, attempting to compose myself."It's me, Cullen. Are you alright? I thought I heard voices," Cullen's concerned voice came from the other side."I'm fine, Cullen. Just taking a shower," I replied, raising my voice to make sure he could hear me."Alright then. Lunch is ready, though. We're waiting for you," he informed me, his steps fading away down the hall."Drew!" I hissed at him in a whispered tone, my frustration

    I heard murmurs emanating from the dining room, and as I stepped inside, the room fell into an abrupt silence. A wave of awkwardness washed over me."Apologies for my tardiness," I offered."No worries, a queen is never late; everyone else is just early," Cullen remarked, motioning for me to take a seat beside him.I smiled gratefully and settled down next to him. As I lifted my gaze, it locked with Drew's."So, Brielle, how is the baby doing?" Cullen's mother inquired, directing her question towards me.Instantly, I shifted my gaze to meet Cullen's mother's own."Everything is fine, ma'am," I promptly responded."Have you visited the hospital for a check-up?" she continued."I haven't had a recent appointment," I replied."No need to worry, ma'am," I reassured her. "I have been following all the necessary prenatal care guidelines and monitoring the baby's progress at home. But I'll make sure to schedule a check-up soon to ensure everything is on track."Cullen's mother nodded approv

    I descended the stairs with a gentle stride, careful not to make any noise. As I reached the bottom, Cullen emerged from his study, his presence commanding attention."Brielle, exquisite as always!" he exclaimed, his eyes fixed on me.A blush crept up my cheeks, accompanied by a warm smile. "Thank you, Cullen. You're looking very nice, by the way," I replied, closing the distance between us."Thank you, Brielle. I believe Drew will meet us at the venue. It's a rooftop bar; I've already made reservations for the four of us," Cullen informed me."Sounds wonderful!"

    I couldn't hide the regret in my voice as I replied, "She's already at the mansion."Cullen's reassuring tone washed over me as he responded, "Hmm... I'll inform Drew. He'll pick her up, so you don't have to worry about anything."Gratefulness welled up within me, and I expressed it with a warm smile.

Cullen asked, his attention focused on the conversation.Drew's voice carried a hint of curiosity as he inquired, "What's that?""Could you pick up Evie? She's at the mansion, but Brielle and I have already left," Cullen explained, conveying t

    "I know, I know it's not. But that's the least I could do to make it easier for you." Cullen said."Fine, alright then. For the safety of my son I'd do it." Drew said finally."Thank you, thank you so much." I said to Drew.Drew smiled."It's alright Brielle," Drew said."One more thing Drew," Cullen said."Oh come on cousin, what's it this time?" Drew asked, getting pissed at Cullen."C'mon relax," Cullen said, laughing."Okay I'm relaxed, what's it?" Drew "I'd have to will some of my Properties to your son," Cullen said "What? I don't get it" Drew said."I don't have an heir, I'm sterile Drew. You're the closest to a brother to me, your son is as well mine. Can't let the whole inheritance go to charity when there's someone who would have better use for it." Cullen said."This is too much Cullen, are you sure about this?"Drew asked, still uncertain about the complexity of the whole situation."I've thought about it thoroughly Drew, and that's my final decision.

    We fell asleep on the couch, and it was the gentle rays of sunlight streaming through the living room window that roused me from my deep slumber. Drew was still peacefully asleep, and as I gazed at him, I admired his handsome features. At that moment, I felt blessed to have him in my life, knowing that he had chosen to be with me despite my past mistakes.Careful not to disturb his rest, I quietly got up from the couch and made my way to the bathroom to take a refreshing shower. The warm water cascaded down my body, enveloping me in a soothing embrace.Suddenly, I felt Drew's presence behind me as he wrapped his arms around my waist, drawing me close to his firm body. His breath, hot and steamy, caressed my skin as he spoke playfully, "Having a bath without me?"I couldn't help but giggle at his playful comment and turned around to face him. "Not at all," I replied, standing on my toes to kiss him tenderly.In the cocoon of the warm, cascading water, Drew and I explored each other'

    "It's been a while Drew.." I said, raising my head to look up at him."What has been a while Brielle?" Drew asked, looking down."That we made out…" I said, my voice seductive as ever."So what are you suggesting..?" Drew asked, his tone sultry."What am I suggesting..?" I asked, my voice seductive as I went down on my knees and unzipped his trousers."Brielle…" he said, moaning. I moved my hand up and down continuously, before placing my mouth at the tip and then deep throating him slowly…He moaned my name, I continued.. this time faster. "Damn it Brielle," Drew said as my head game became more intense, he couldn't hold himself anymore, he pulled my head back and released in my mouth.I opened my mouth wide.. smiling seductively as he came all over my mouth.I rubbed his cum over my face and dived back into his dick, sucking him harder.This time around, he couldn't control himself, he lifted me up and carried me to the bedroom. He undressed me immediately and sucked my breasts a

    My heart pounded in my chest as I waited for Drew to answer the door. Every second felt like an eternity, and I tried to steady my nerves.Finally, the door opened, and there stood Drew, looking both surprised and delighted to see me."Brielle?" he exclaimed, a mix of confusion and excitement in his eyes. "What are you doing here?""Hey, Drew," I replied, trying to sound calm despite the storm of emotions inside me."What are you doing here?" he asked, stepping aside to let me in."I needed to talk to you," I said, stepping into his home.Drew closed the door behind me, uncertainty hanging in the air.As I entered his apartment, memories of the time we spent together flooded my mind. The familiarity of the place added to the intensity of the moment."I didn't expect to see you today," he said, his eyes searching mine for answers."I know, and I'm sorry for showing up unannounced, but there's something important we need to discuss," I said, trying to find the right words to convey my f

    "Carla, do you know if Cullen's mum stepped out?" I asked."Oh yes, she did a while ago. Hope no problem?" Carla inquired."Not at all, I just get tired of her talks most of the time, so I don't want to bump into her on my way out this evening," I said with a slight chuckle.Carla laughed too, understanding my sentiment. "I understand, ma'am. You're going out this evening?" she asked."Uh, yes. Why do you ask?" I replied, slightly curious."You actually need to pump for the baby; he finished his bottles earlier this afternoon," Carla informed me."Oh, alright. I'll do that before leaving," I said, reminding myself to take care of it."Okay, ma'am. Call if you need anything," Carla said politely before leaving the room.I finished styling my hair and took one last glance in the mirror, making sure everything looked perfect. With my hair styled, I felt a bit more confident about facing Drew. It was just my outfit that was left, I planned on doing that while I was done pumping for my ba

    I placed my son gently back into his crib, making sure he was comfortable, and quietly left the nursery. I wanted to avoid any unnecessary conversations with Cullen's mother, especially when I had so much on my mind.As I entered my room and dropped my bag on the bed, my phone suddenly began to ring. I glanced at the caller ID and was shocked to see Ignacio's name displayed."What does he want now?" I muttered to myself as I answered the call."Hello?" I said, trying to sound composed."Hi Brielle," Ignacio's voice came through the line."What do you want, Ignacio?" I asked, irritation evident in my voice."I just want to understand why you chose a contract marriage instead of giving our marriage another chance," Ignacio said.I scoffed at his question, "You got the money you wanted, right? So please stop calling me," I retorted and promptly hung up.Annoyed by his persistence, I tossed my phone onto the bed and decided to take a shower to calm my nerves. As I stood under the soothin

    I hesitated for a moment, still lost in thought. Then, I looked up at the waiter and said, "I'll have the same, thank you.""Great choice," Cullen said, giving me a playful wink.As the waiter left to place our orders, I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves."I'm really nervous about talking to Drew," I admitted, finally breaking the silence."I understand, Brielle. It won't be easy, but it's important to be honest with him," Cullen said, his voice reassuring."I know, I just don't want to hurt him any more than I already have," I said, my voice tinged with guilt."You didn't plan for any of this to happen," Cullen said. "And I truly believe Drew will understand that. Just be open and honest with him, like you were with me.""I hope you're right," I said, feeling a mix of anxiety and hope.Although I had planned for it, the only unexpected thing I didn't plan for was falling in love with Drew."I've known Drew for a long time, he's my cousin and I've seen how he cares about th

    "So, you said you told Drew something about me?" Cullen asked, his eyes searching mine for answers."Yes… I uhm.. I didn't tell him about Ignacio yet. See, the thing is, I really love Drew, and I don't want to lose him. I didn't know how he'd react if he knew I was married to Ignacio and still agreed to get married to you on a contract," I admitted, my voice tinged with apprehension."Hmm.. So what did you tell him?" Cullen inquired, his curiosity piqued."Well.. I kind of said you forced me into the contract marriage," I confessed.Cullen couldn't help but chuckle lightly, "Really, Brielle? Wow.. that's nice," he said with a hint of sarcasm."It's not what you think, Cullen. I just had to say something to protect both of us. And now he wants to confront you, but I couldn't let that happen because we haven't spoken yet. I needed you to understand the situation I was in when I said what I said about you," I explained earnestly."Listen, Brielle, I know my cousin. He's not a monster, an

    Just as we were deep in conversation, the front door opened, and Cullen walked in, looking slightly tired from a long day at work. His face lit up with surprise when he saw his mum sitting in the living room."Mum! What are you doing here?" Cullen asked, a mix of delight and curiosity in his voice.His mum beamed at him, "I thought I'd come for a surprise visit and spend some time with you and Brielle. I hope you don't mind, dear?"Cullen shook his head, a smile spreading across his face. "Of course not, Mum! It's great to see you."They shared a warm embrace, and I was glad to witness the bond between mother and son."I was just having tea with Brielle and catching up," his mum said, looking at me fondly.Cullen turned to me, "Did you know about this surprise visit?"I shrugged playfully, "Your mum kept it a secret from me too."Cullen chuckled and shook his head, "Well, I'm glad you're here, Mum."His mum patted his cheek affectionately, "I couldn't resist seeing my grandson .
