The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Twenty Three
May’s POVSomehow, Brent and I had convinced everyone to go home. Not only had they tried but they were tired as well. My family had waited for four hours, while my in laws had waited for three and a half hours.We still haven’t heard nothing and it was eight hours already, even after they had gone. I sat there with Brent, as Emily had just left herself, the scene of the accident popping up into my head over and over. Maybe I was thinking, that perhaps, I could notice something I didn’t notice before, or I could remember something I had notice but couldn’t remember.I couldn’t just sit out here in the hall waiting room, doing nothing but stare into space and think about nothing.I heard Brent’s phone ring and he said hello.“Yes, she’s still here. No, she won’t go home and I’m worried.” I heard him say to someone, but I wasn’t sure who.It wasn’t any of my business who he was talking to, though, what mattered was what he was saying. I wasn’t going home, no matter what any one said. Th

May’s POVBrent squeezed my hand reassuringly. “You’re not leaving him, May. You’re just taking care of yourself for his sake. Trust me, he’ll understand if he wakes up and you’re not here, and that’s a big if.” He said.Okay, so he wanted me to leave, but he just had to tell me he would understand if he were to wake up. Well, I didn’t think so. The big if didn’t lie in if he were to wake up, not at all, it lied in whether or not he would understand like he had said he would.Because, I won’t understand that sort of thing, if I were to be in his place right now and I woke up to find him gone, not beside me, I didn’t think I would ever understand.With a sigh, I said. “How about you go home instead, see how that would be good.”He looked at me as if I had lost my head then he shook his own head and said. “Fine then, I won’t talk about it anymore.” He raised his hands in a surrendering gesture.After that, we both sat there in silence, looking at anywhere but ourselves.As we sat there

Asher’s POVI wasn’t sure what was happening, but I could hear the beeping sound all around me, and it was so irritating. I would feel my head pounding as well, as if it my rolled off my neck if I moved too much.It took me a while before I realized where I was and why I was hearing the beeping sound. I was in the hospital, but I wasn’t sure I knew why. Maybe the reason was somewhere there in my subconscious.As I slowly opened my eyes, the harsh glare of the hospital lights stung me, and it pierce through the haze of the anesthesia that clouded my mind. “I need water.” I said, or maybe I just thought I said it.Everything felt heavy, as if I were trapped in some sort of surreal nightmare. Blinking away the grogginess, I tried to piece together the fragments of memory from before the darkness had consumed me.The first sensation that I registered was the dryness in my throat. It felt like I needed water, because of how my throat was parched. The next thing I felt was pain; a dull, thr

May’s POVI was still thinking about it at the background of my mind, something I had seen that I didn’t think much more of before, or that I could remember now.“You should go home, baby!” I heard Asher say and I rolled my eyes as I looked at her.I was the only one that was left here. His parents and best friend had just left a while ago, and Emily said she would be coming soon. But I wasn’t going to leave Asher alone just because he said so.“I’m not going anywhere, Ash. Stop trying to run me off.” I said, rolling my eyes at him as I sat down beside him. I had been sitting on the small chair pushed up against the wall before, but now I was sitting next to him.“You look all tired, and worn out. You can’t wear yourself out because of me, baby.” He said and I beat his arm playfully.Baby, huh? Again with the baby card, are we? He had been calling me that since that first time I called him that. I had been so blinded by my emotions that I hadn’t put a pause to my mouth when I called h

May’s POVI sat down in the car with Brent, looking outside the window, with my arms folded across my chest, and thinking. I was back to thinking about what I might have seen, but I wasn’t doing that alone now, I was doing it with Brent.For some reason, we had both thought that there might have been something we saw that we didn't remember or think too much about back then because of the heat of the moment.“I think I remember seeing a man being dragged out of the party by the door because he was trying to use an invite that had been used before by someone. I remember collecting the invite, but I didn't check it.” Brent said, and I glanced at him sharply.“Why didn’t you look at it? Where is it?” I asked.He shook his head and said. “Well, for all we know, it might not be related to what we're looking for, I just thought to mention it because it was odd that someone was trying to get into a party he wasn’t invited to, just to come spend some money, seeing as it was that kind of event

May’s POVAfter we saw the footage, we saw the man that was dragged out, but we couldn’t see his face properly. We also saw that he sneaked in later because he was at the party.It was either that, or there was a man with the same build and the same clothes on him. The only thing was, he was still not showing his face. It was as if he was evading the camera on purpose, as if there was a way for him to tell somehow where the cameras were beforehand.I sighed as I looked at Brent, then I glanced down at the wristwatch I was wearing. It was almost time to head back to the hospital so I wouldn’t be late.“Maybe we should come back to this later, Brent. I have to go to the hospital now.” I said and Brent nodded. We were supposed to go together, but he said he needed to get to Asher’s office to put something in place.Brent nodded in understanding, his expression reflecting the same sense of urgency that I felt. "You're right. We've hit a dead end for now, but we'll pick up where we left of

Asher’s POVThere was a knock on the door, and I frowned a little, wondering if the cops were back again this evening. My mother and May had just left to have a late lunch because they hadn't had anything to eat since, so I knew it couldn’t be them.The medication that was administered to me was still making me feel a little drowsy, but I was awake now.Before I could speak and ask whoever it was to come in, the door opened and Gary walked in. “Hey, my man.” He said and I smiled a little.I had just this morning been wondering why he hadn’t come around to the hospital to visit me, and was still meaning to ask May or something, but now he was here.My thoughts must have summoned him, but I was glad to see him.“Hey, Gary. It took you long enough to come see me, don’t you think?” I said, a small smile teasing my lips.Gary walked into the room after he closed the door until he was standing next to me, then he said. “I’m sorry man. I’ve been working so hard, my company’s work coupled wit

May’s POVAs soon as I walked into the hospital room, my mood had changed from good to sour in less than a second, but I had been trying to hide it, in my response, in how I look at him.Yeah, I was talking about my boss, Gary.The thing was, I and Brent had been working tirelessly to both find out why he smiled that night, to know whose invite that man had used in coming into the party, and to look into Gary.He had called me, Brent I mean, just as I was having a late lunch with Ellen, to tell me what he had found out. I had had to excuse myself to go to the bathroom to listen to what he had to say.Brent had them told me what he found out. “I found the invite, May. I must have kept it in my car at some point. I checked it out as soon as I saw it, and I realized it was for Gary Keith.” He had told me, and for a while, my mouth had dropped open in surprise, not believing my ears one bit.What was going on? Why would Gary give someone his invite if he didn’t have an ulterior motive? Wh

May’s POVAs soon as I opened the door of my room later that evening after Ellen left to go downstairs to get an apple before going to bed, I saw Asher standing there.“I can’t give you any more time, May.” That was the first thing he said to me as I looked at him. What the hell was he talking about?I frowned, biting my bottom lip. “Stop doing that, May. If you seriously don’t want me to ravish you right now, stop doing that.” He said.I was utterly confused, not sure I knew what he was referring to. I just frowned and looked at him. “What are you talking about?” I asked after a few more seconds of silenced from him. I had been expecting him to clarify without me having to ask, but he just stared at me.“Biting your lip, that’s what.” He said casually.“Oh! I see. Sorry, I’m not doing it on purpose.” I said and he nodded.“Where are you going to?” He asked me.“I’m going to the kitchen.” I said.“That’s good. Maybe we can talk there.” He said.I shook my head. “Or maybe we can talk h
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Forty One
Asher’s POVI stood by the kitchen door with my bag in my hand, listening to what they were saying; my mother and my wife.As soon as I got back from the office, my butler had told me my mother was around and that she was in the kitchen with May, and now I was here to meet them.But then I got here and I heard May said she was leaving. I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. I even clenched my hands in fists, it was all I could do to not storm in there, grabbed her hands and drag her upstairs to show her why she wasn’t going to leave.“Again, thank you, but I can’t stay. I just wanted to speak with Asher before I left.” I heard her say. “And it’s taking too long for him to come home. I don’t know if you please tell him I said good-bye?” She said.Okay, that was the height of what I could stay here and listen to, because I was already boiling. But then again, I knew I couldn’t show anger because I knew she was also hurting.I grabbed the doorknob and pushed it downward to open the door,
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Forty
Asher’s POVThis was it, the height of the avoidance I could do, really, but I was trying to prove a point to May, that she needed me as much as I needed her.She was the other half of me I didn’t know before, or maybe I did, but didn’t want to accept it then. Back then, she would have been the one trying to get me to see her, now I was the one, and I thought avoiding her would make her see me.But it was killing me, really. I just want her to come to me already, and it was what I had been waiting for.Brent shook his head at me as he sat in front of me with his glare on me. “Just what the hell are you doing to yourself, Asher.” He asked.“What I think would work!” I said, but was it really working. "Look, Brent, I know it seems crazy, sounds so, even, but I need her to realize how much she means to me and I can’t do that if she doesn’t want me," I replied, frustration evident in my voice.I didn’t care right now, as long as I put it out there. I was tired of having to explain myself
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Nine
Asher’s POV“Fuck baby, I just want to kiss you right now.” I said and I watched as her eyes went huge in her face for a couple of seconds before she closed her eyes tightly. I smiled again, shaking my head.Although, Gary had been an ass who just wanted me dead, but then again, he had given me a good advice, and told me to make haste when it came to dealing with May.She was my wife, but at this point, it was just in name only. She was not as close to me as I would want her to be. I wanted her back, the woman I had married, the one that would look at me like I was the only man in the world that mattered.I wanted the woman that always cared for me and put me first. Yes, I might have been the one to drive her off with my stupid opinion, but at least, I was trying to get her back now.I stared down at her mouth, as she licked it, but I knew it was because she was nervous. I liked it though, and I smiled again, before finally pushing my head to hers, and kissing her, pushing my tongue i
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Eight
May’s POVA knock sounded on the door of my room, and I knew it was Asher before I asked who it was. That was the way he usually knocked. If it was the butler, I would know as well, but I asked all the same.“Who’s that?” I asked, and as expected, Asher answered.“It’s me, May.” He said and I sighed, pushing up from the chair in front of my dresser I was sitting to walk to the door.I had locked it earlier when I walked in after lunch to get a bit of a shut eye. I had just woken up about a couple of minutes ago, and I had washed my face, and sat down to apply some facial cream on my face.I grabbed the doorknob and twisted it open. “Hey, Ash. What do you want?” I asked as soon as I saw him standing there.Okay, I didn’t mean to sound like this, at all, so I would blame it on the fact that I had just woken up from sleep.He gave me a surprised look, like he didn’t expect me to ask him that, but then again, I wasn't in the mood to explain that this was because I had just woken up from s
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Seven
Asher’s POV“I can’t believe you did all of this because of what Dad did, Gary.” I said as I stared at the man sitting opposite me with a table between us and a cop waiting in the room with us.It had been a whole week since they arrested that man and he had provided evidence that Gary had not only sent him to stab me, but kill me.He must have missed a vital organ was why I was still here, alive. I just couldn’t believe it when I was told Gary was arrested as well.“I wouldn’t say I regretted my actions, because I wanted you gone. I wanted to hit your father where I knew it would hurt.” He said, a small smile on his face, and I scoffed.“Are you crazy?” I asked. “I can’t believe you would do this and take it lightly. Look around, buddy, you’re in jail.” I said and he lifted his hand in a shrug.“I know that, don’t you think I can see?” he asked me. “But then again, I tried what I wanted to, I got to see your father’s face and the fear on his face when he saw your in that condition. H
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Six
May’s POVI smiled mentally as I did a small victory dance when Brent told me the police had gotten the man who assaulted Asher, and that mood had been with me since then.He had told me since morning, but it was already evening, and I was still happy. What more could I have asked for, than for the man to start talking, which I was sure he would do soon.“Mrs. Campbell, your husband want your attention in the study.” I heard someone said behind me and I turned to see the housekeeper standing there with the napkin in hand, making me realize that she was probably about to start on dinner.Why was Asher wanting my attention anyway, I wanted to ask her as I raised my brows but I didn’t. Instead, I nodded my head at her and said. “Thank you, Dee.”She nodded her head with a small bow and then she walked out of the living room. I turned my head back after she was gone to the book that was in my hand. I had been reading to while away time because I was starting to get bored out of my mind. A
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Five
Asher’s POVAnd as soon as Brent said that, the smile on my face faltered. This was just what I was waiting for. For some reason, I felt like May had been trying to stop him from telling me, but if that was the case, I wasn’t sure why.Was she trying to shield Gary, or me? Well, if I knew her as much as I thought I do, then she was probably shielding me.In her actions, I saw a familiar pattern of protectiveness that May often exhibited towards me. It wasn’t uncommon for her to try to shield me from unpleasant truths or difficult situations. She was probably doing this because she thought I couldn’t handle the truth of what they were about to tell me.Well, I would have to hear what all these was about to know if I could handle it or not. Just because I was just discharged from the hospital doesn’t mean I was some soft man that couldn’t handle some amount of truth.“Oh, yes! I would like to hear that very much.” I said, looking from Brent to my wife who was throwing him a look. My bes
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Four
May’s POV“Huh, I think I hear the door.” Asher said and I looked up from my computer with a groan. I had just finished cooking lunch, and came back to resuming work about ten minutes ago, now I had to stand up again?I was going to have to call back the domestic staff because I needed to be able to stay on top of work as well as taking care of Asher. Doing things like having to get the door and other things like that wasn’t going to work.With I sigh, I stood up. “That must be Brent. You said he was on his way, right?” I asked and he nodded.There was something different about Asher that I just couldn’t put my fingers around since. For some reason, it seemed like he was brooding about something.I couldn’t help but think that maybe it was because of me and the fact that I was back here. I knew he said he wanted me back, but what if he was not comfortable with me anymore? What if he was not feeling as settled as he thought he would be if I came back?I shook my head off that thought,
