Cassie’s POV “Why?” Out of all the million things going on in my mind, this was the only thing that escaped my lips as I continued to stare at her with a blank look. I needed no introduction when I saw Kelvin to know he was related to Shawn. But it was different with the woman right in front of me. Besides, where was she last night? She shrugged, “because he is really protective of you.” I shook my head, not believing the response. “Thank you but I can take care of myself,” I mumbled, almost shutting the door when she stopped me. “Waittttttt!” “You don’t believe me?” This time around the smile on Kayla’s face faded and was replaced with a little disappointment. I tried not to feel bad because she was looking really cheerful when I opened the door. As though she was excited to see me. “I didn’t say that. I just want to be alone.” I mumbled, hoping she would understand. Kayla stared at me intently. “Are you crying?” Her voice came out in almost a whisper. It was then I realized
Cassie’s Pov I have met Shawn’s Dad, his brother Kelvin and now, Kayla. I was tempted to ask after their mom or if they had any more siblings but I couldn’t bring myself to do so. Since Kayla had no idea why her brother married me, maybe it was best to leave it that way. “Let’s forget about Shawn. I care more about you. Do you feel better?” She stared at me intently and I tried to stop my eyes from itching with more tears. I was not used to people asking me if I was fine. No one really cared about me until I came to this house.I nodded, not knowing what to say to Kayla. I had wanted to stay alone to clear my head but speaking to Kayla hasn’t been terrible so far.“Are you sure? I saw you walking uncomfortably ear…….” She was saying when her eyes met with the items on my nightstand, particularly the ointment. I had no idea what was going through Kayla’s mind but her lips instantly curved into a beautiful smile. “What is it?” I whispered.“Never mind, my silly thoughts were getting
“Is that what you call her?” “I mean, have you ever called her that in her presence?” Kayla said, taking a seat on the bed.Shawn grumbled. “This is why I don’t like to ask for favors. I involved you in my life but that doesn’t mean you need to question me every time.” Kayla shrugged even though her brother couldn’t see her. “You’ve involved me now so you’ve got no choice but to answer me.”“And I am not prying. The question is based on concern from what I noticed.” “What did you notice? Did she say anything to you?” Shawn asked.“No. You are lucky to have a wife who is composed and minds her business. She was shocked to see me so I assumed you didn’t tell her that I would be coming over. If you called her sweet names in her face, then there was no way you wouldn’t have told her about me.”“Not today, Kayla.” Shawn groaned.“So that’s it? You will continue to call her sweet names behind her?” “She’s my wife. Shouldn’t that be enough affirmation to her?” “Of course not. She’s not
Cassie’s POV “Stay strong, Cassie,” I whispered in my mind, then let out a nervous smile. “I’m fine. I didn’t know you were done. We can take our leave now.” I was about to walk away from the aisle when Kayla stopped me. “You want to get one?” I expected her to be judgmental but her voice sounded calm. I shook my head before I even realized what I had done. But I guess it was better that way. “We can take our leave now,” I said again, not liking this awkward situation. “I don’t mean to pry but.” Kayla started to speak with a very low tone. I guess it was because we were in a public place, even though there was no one around us yet. “This is not safe.” “It isn’t?” I frowned. As I said before, my ex made me take it when he forgot to pull out of me. I never got pregnant so that means it worked right? But I couldn’t tell Kayla all of these. “No, it’s not.” “I know it’s for emergencies but you can’t really trust it. There are safer options. You could go for shots. Just speak to Sh
Cassie’s POV My eyes went wide. I wasn’t dreaming. It was Shawn fucking me. My silky nightie was nowhere to be found on me and Shawn was naked in between my legs, drilling me. What the hell was he doing here? Wasn’t he meant to be in Italy or France or wherever the hell his sister said he was? Wait, did he hear all the things I said in my sleep? I was almost moving my lips to say something when Shawn slammed really hard into me. I felt his dick hit the innermost part of me. I could feel myself tearing up due to how good it felt. Shawn brought a finger to my clit, and robbed it in circles while he continued to thrust faster in me. My toes curled and I bit my lower lip in a bid to control my moans. Absent-mindedly, I reached for the pillow beside me and buried it in my face so I could moan freely in it. Yeah, Shawn fucks me so good but with someone as pompous and daring as he was, I still needed to maintain my dignity. I didn’t want to give him the benefit of the doubt that he had
Cassie’s POV “Twins???????” I moaned. Yup, I just spotted another difference between Shawn and my exes. Shawn seemed to love sex. For someone who had a dark room, this news shouldn’t be surprising, right? Was that why he didn’t want to touch me so soon because of how addicted he could get? Well, my exes only fucked me when they wanted to ease themselves. No love, no passion, no foreplay. I had no idea I could get wet or that sex could be this good either. Hearing Shawn talk about twins, I instantly facepalmed for not picking up the pill at the pharmacy. “Yes!” Shawn groaned, showering kisses in my ear. “The first cum was for the first baby and this one is going to be for his little sister.” “You are so foolish!” I had no idea when those words rolled off my tongue but Shawn instantly punished me for it. His next thrust in me was so deep that I let out the loudest moan of the night. Shawn pinched my nipple at the same time too. I felt pain. But it was a type of pain filled with ple
“So you came running all the way from another continent just to see your woman?” Kayla smirked at her older brother who was in a slightly bent position, with his upper body leaning against the railings. The duo were on the balcony. “Don’t try to tease me.” He warned Kayla. “I’m not. I’m just saying.” “Did you miss her that much?” “You know what?” Shawn stood upright. “I think your time is up here.” “This is my first time in your home and you are going to chase me away because you do not need me anymore?” Shawn frowned, “Were you planning on staying here forever?” “I wasn’t. But Cassie is amazing so I don’t mind spending more time with her.” “I hope you didn’t tell her stupid things about me?” “Like what?” Kayla teased. “Kayla!!!!” Shawn growled, causing Kayla to chuckle. This was the first normal conversation they were having in years and she was enjoying every bit of it. “I told you already that we hardly spoke about you. It was obvious she was mad at you so we just had fu
Cassie’s POVThe next Morning! “You know you can say whatever it is that’s on your mind instead of gawking at me?” Shawn mumbled as he buttoned up his shirt. I rolled my eyes at him and got more comfortable under the duvet. “You can always ask for it anytime you want it. I’m all yours.” He said and I sat up. “Do you only think about sex?” At this point, Shawn was done dressing up. He took slow steps to the bedside and sat beside me. “Why do you think so?” “That’s all you seem to talk about,” I said, looking into his eyes. “I’m sure we talk about other stuff! You just seem to recall the intimate part more. But it’s allowed since we are a couple.” “Besides, it’s almost impossible to think straight whenever you are around.” I noticed that his pupil was almost dilated as he stared at me.I was tempted to ask him what was so special about me but I couldn't bring myself to voice it out since I had more pressing issues. “Would you recommend your doctor? I need some shots.” He frowne
Lauretta’s Pov The driver pulled up before the venue, came down from the limo, then opened the door for us. My mom got down first, then I followed suit.“You look sad. What is it, my child?” My mom asked me; the worry not leaving her face. “The press. They should be here taking pictures and flooding them on social media. How are my friends going to know that I attended this party in a limo?” I grumbled.“Come on, sweets. We can always take pictures ourselves.” “Yes, I know. But wouldn’t it be honorable if they saw the videos and pictures on the top bloggers’ page? They would be so shocked, especially the ones who doubted me.”“True but you shouldn’t jump to conclusions. I am sure the press are inside. Maybe two or three. You know this is a private party and it was hard to get a pass too. Don Travous probably wants to respect and protect the privacy of his guests.” Rhoda said but I was still not convinced. I already envisioned how today was meant to be. By this time, I was to be po
Cassie’s Pov Travous’s voice brought me out of my thoughts. “Pardon my reaction, Cassie. I was shocked because we thought he was never going to settle down. Thank you for making him realize marriage can be such a beautiful thing. And it’s good to meet you.” He stretched out a hand to me and I smiled, returning the shake. “Happy Birthady! And good to meet you too.” “Thank you. You look gorgeous by the way.” He said to me, then turned to Shawn. “Aren’t you a lucky thing?” “Thank you,” I responded with a nervous chuckle, finding it hard to believe a mogul was complimenting me. “I know I am. That’s why I’m not going to let anyone take her away from me.” “I should probably introduce her to Mary,” Travous said, then his eyes went searching the crowd for the person bearing that name. Shawn leaned close to me and stole a kiss from me. My eyes went wide. “We are in the public,” I said looking at his lips for any trace of evidence but there was none.He smiled. “So?” “Be good!” I warned
Cassie’s POV The driver pulled before a tall and exquisite building. He opened the door for Shawn. Shawn got down and then made his way to the other side of the car. He opened the door for me, then stretched out a hand to help me down. I accepted it while thanking him in a low tone. He politely pulled me closer to him, then placed his hand on the small of my back. “Remember, you are not to leave my side, don’t pay attention to anyone who gawks at you, and let me know if you feel uncomfortable or if anyone messes with you.” The possessiveness in Shawn’s voice instantly made me feel secure. Regardless, I was curious to see what an elite’s party entailed. “Ready?” Shawn asked, then took a slow glance at me. From head to toe. “I hope I’m not putting myself in danger for bringing you here in this fit.” “I think you hype me too much. I’m not bothered because I know I am not going to be best dressed. I’m sure every woman in there has been attending parties like this since forever so th
Cassie’s Pov.I tried to take Shawn’s hands off my waist but he just wouldn’t budge. “We had a deal. You said you wouldn’t be nasty.”“I need to know what’s going on in your head before you begin to accuse me.” He said like someone who had done nothing wrong.“I had no idea why my heart was racing fast. The thought of him doing silly things to me in public scared me. Sadly, I was beginning to anticipate it even though I didn’t want it.‘Shut up! You want his dick so much!’ my subconscious mocked me.“We are going to be at the party. In the midst of reputable people like you said. How in hell would your mind be elsewhere?”“We shall see, honey.” He leaned close and placed a kiss on my forehead. “You don’t have to be nervous. I won’t let you feel pain and neither would I embarrass you.” “Please let’s get out of here,” I mumbled, not trusting myself anymore. Shawn pulled me closer. “Scared?”“We are going to be late,” I grumbled, ignoring the tingling feelings in my stomach.“I’ll be
Cassie’s POV I tried to search for the right words to say but nothing came out when I parted my lips. “For who?” I mumbled, knowing that I sounded dumb right now. But the truth was that; I was still not comfortable with his nice gestures and I fear that I never will.“Do you like it?” He asked, ignoring my question.“It’s beautiful but I hope it’s not for me.” “You need to get used to this lifestyle,” Shawn mumbled. He took the necklace off the box, tossed the box aside, then walked behind me.“You smell so good.” He whispered and kissed the nape of my neck. I swallowed painfully when I felt him place the jewelry on my neck. He did that easily because my hair was not in the way. It was parked in a bridal style. Shawn slowly twirled me around. “Perfect! You make the jewelry beautiful.” His statement made reality hit me. “Was that why Tina didn’t want me to use my necklace?” “You deserve something timeless so I told her I was going to take care of it.” My husband said, calmly.“B
Cassie’s POV The next Morning. I moaned in my sleep when I felt a hand fondle with my nipple. The pleasure that came with the gesture was too good to be true for a dream so I instantly knew who was behind it. “Shawn?” With my eyes closed, I whispered his name. “Morning sweets!” He kissed the side of my forehead, still fondling my nipple with his fingers. We were in a spooning position I think.“What are you up to?” I was sleepy but my body was on fire. Hardly had I recovered from what he made me go through last night and now I was faced with this.“You like?” I could feel the desire in his voice. “No,” I mumbled.“Liar!!!” He said, let go of my nipple, pulled my nightie up, above my ass, and started caressing my butt cheeks. That was another part of my body that he loved so much.“You are getting too addicted,” I mumbled, loving the feel of his palm on my ass.“You are my wife.”“You seem to remind me every day.”“Yes, because you are still in denial.” he moved one of my legs fur
“It’s good to hear you say that but it hurts to know you don’t trust your mama anymore.” Rhoda chuckled, returning her daughter’s hug. “Don’t be sad, mama,” Lauretta mumbled, pulling away from the hug. “It’s not that I don’t trust you but this was looking so impossible to lay a hand on.” She gestured at the invite. “You know how much I hate keeping my hopes up so I don’t get disappointed but you proved me wrong once more. I’m so proud to have you as my mom.” Lori grinned.“Of course.” Rhoda tried to hide her blush. “It was tough but I did it. I’m not sure an opportunity like this would present itself anytime soon so we need to make the best of this event.” Rhoda said sternly.“Of course, Mom. I won’t disappoint you. I promise.” “But won’t you fill me in on how you were able to lay a hand on the invite? Don Travous’s parties are always a big deal. My friends would be so fucking jealous when I post pictures of the event.”“Of course they’ve got every right to be jealous of you. You ma
Cassie’s POV I had no idea why I said that but there it was anyway. “I’m not like them. I know it’s easier said than done but I would love it for you to forget them. They are assholes.” “You belong by my side. Both indoors and outdoors. I have nowhere to hide you.” Shawn’s words touched my heart once more, I resisted the urge to blink my eyes so tears did not roll down my cheeks.Shawn stared at me intently. He noticed my teary eyes too. I huffed, letting out some air, and that made me feel a bit better. “No pressure! There will be more events to attend in the future so you have more time to prepare your mind.” “But unfortunately, you cannot avoid not being seen in public with me. I honestly do not care how people see me. But there are some parts of my life I would love to show off and that includes you.” “Why?” My heart couldn’t stop racing. “You are going to make me inherit enemies.” I added.“Enemies?” I nodded. “When your lovers find out you are off the market.” “You wo
Cassie’s Pov I stared into my husband’s eyes. “Your date.” I had no idea why my heart was beating really fast against my chest. I knew how terrible the previous one ended so I wasn’t sure how to act with this. “Yes.” He answered. “What event and why do you need me there?” I had no idea if my question sounded rude but that was just me being curious.“Don Travous’ birthday dinner.”“He’s a top businessman. A lot of colleagues would be there too and they would be attending with their partners.” “You are sure you want me to come with you?” I asked.“Of course. You are my wife.” “Are you sure?” I stared at Shawn as though he had horns on his head. “You just mentioned that important people are going to be there.”“You are my wife, hence, you are important.” I supported my hand against my head so I could look into his eyes properly. “Aren’t you scared that I might embarrass you?” “How?” Shawn asked. I can’t believe we were naked in the living room, with our clothes scattered on the f
