Eliana Brown~•~I was currently sitting on Will’s lap. It was surreal.I’d felt so awkward when I had woken up in the morning to find that I was lying on top of him naked. I had thrown myself at him last night so I felt embarrassed as fuck. Thankfully, he didn’t make things worse and instead assured me that he wanted me.I’d been so angry at him these past few days that I didn’t think our weekend would end like this. Will was clingy as fuck. The only time he let me go was to go and have a bath and even then, he wanted to join me. As soon as I finished getting dressed, he carried me downstairs, not letting my feet touch the ground, and brought me to the kitchen where he made breakfast like a regular husband.Sometimes I had to remind myself that he was my husband but at the moment, it felt real. It felt like we got married for love and not for a silly reason that I didn’t wish to repeat.“So are we going to continue our lessons today or what?” William asked while we were eating breakf
Eliana Brown~•~I had mentioned that William was clingy but I just felt the need to repeat it. He didn’t like letting me out of his sight unless it was work and even then, he was a bit salty about it. He made sure I slept in his room every night and with the way his hands were always on me, I was surprised we hadn’t fucked yet.I wasn’t ashamed to say I was looking forward to it. I loved spending all my time with him, which was why I was excited by the fact that it was a Friday. It meant another weekend with him.“What are you smiling about?”I quickly schooled my expression and faced Marcus. He was from the purchasing team and we usually worked side by side. “What’s up?”He looked at me like I was weird but when I didn’t divulge, he shook his head. “Mr. Edward wants to see you.”“I’ll be right there.” I forced a smile.He rolled his eyes, making me wonder what was going on in his head as he walked away. I shook my head and stood up, walking up to his office. I knocked on the door an
Eliana Brown~•~I was the first person to leave the office.At five o’clock, I was quick to shut down my computer and rush downstairs.I found Will’s car and tried the back door. Thankfully, it was open. He wasn’t inside but his other friend was in the driver’s seat. “Good evening,” I said as I settled down inside. I didn’t understand their dynamic at all. They were all friends yet they worked for him. George looked rich. His clothes and shoes were expensive but he drove William around. I wanted to ask but was too shy to.“Good evening, Eliana. Will will be down shortly.”I nodded, brought out my phone and pretended to be busy while I waited for William. I was excited to follow him on his trip. Thankfully, it was on the weekend so I wouldn’t be missing anything. The only times I’d gone on trips was for work. This was the first time I’d be traveling just for the sake of it.Just as George said earlier, Will came down a few minutes later with Duke trailing beside him. They were close t
William Caddel~•~“You animal.” Eliana spat out, hitting my chest. “Let me go.”I held her arms and pinned them above her head. “So you can be this feisty?” I laughed. I had never seen her like this. She was very shy and reserved around me so she barely bared her claws when she was with me. “You’re such a jealous little thing.”She glared at me. “Shut up.”I had been irritated when George divulged information about me to Eliana that I hadn’t said myself but her reaction made things interesting. Call me a bad person but I reveled in the fact that she easily got jealous. Her jealousy meant that she liked and wanted me. Maybe it was toxic but I’d never claimed to not be toxic anyway.“How are we going to enjoy our time in Chicago if you keep up this attitude?”“What attitude?” She huffed. “You’re the one picking me up and throwing me down like a rag doll.”“You are a doll,” I affirmed. “My doll.”The little kitten didn’t like that very much. “You’re pissing me off.”“Tell me how to make
Eliana Brown~•~We arrived in Chicago by eight o’clock in the evening and we went straight to the mall as William said earlier.I was already tired of the clothes I was wearing and needed something more comfortable. I picked out a pair of gray sweatpants and a matching sweatshirt as well as a night dress, a short dress, a pair of jeans, and a shirt to go with.When it was time to pay, I brought out my card but William had already handed over his card to the cashier.I stared up at him. “I could have covered that.”“You can do that when I’m not around.” He shrugged. “And even then, I’d hope you use my card for what you want.”“You’re not financially responsible. Why would you give me your card?” I questioned as he took the bags from the cashier and led me out of the store.“Are you already forgetting that we’re married? It’s my job to take care of you.”I was always forgetting that we were legally married. It caught me by surprise whenever he reminded me. There was also the fact that
Eliana Brown~•~I was excited.I couldn’t remember the last time I had been in a club. I was most likely underaged and faked an ID even if the bartenders and the bouncers knew my real age. I lived in a small town after all.Since living in New York, I have never been to a club. Harry and I moved to New York together and I didn’t want to do anything behind his back so I always declined whenever Catherine invited me out. My refusal always annoyed her but she never ceased to ask me. Whenever she was going out with her friends, she made sure to include me so I wouldn’t feel left out, not caring that I almost always turned her down.Since I became an adult, I never went to the club so I was a bit excited to go with William. I didn’t know what kind of influence he had in Chicago but we went through the back door as the front door had a long ass queue.“Regular or VIP?” William asked me as we approached one of the bouncers.“I’ll follow your lead.”William shook his head and chuckled softly
Eliana Brown~•~William could barely keep his eyes off me and damn did it turn me on. That was the exact reason I chose the dress. It was short, revealing, and showed my cleavage.Throughout the night, I caught him staring at me and he made sure we were always touching. When we were dancing, he couldn’t keep his eyes off of me. It flattered me. I didn’t know he liked me that much.I was drunk but I couldn’t deny the feeling of adrenaline coursing through my body. I didn’t know when and how but I had fallen hard for this man and there was no going back. I had always thought nothing could happen between us but he acknowledged that he was mine.William pulled me back slightly when I almost bumped into a pole. I smiled sheepishly. I was lost in thought and was not watching my steps.He shook his head with a smile. “Are you sure you don’t want me to carry you?”I shook my head too. He also had alcohol. I didn’t want both of us to fall over. I had been the one to suggest we take a walk sin
Eliana Brown~•~William placed one hand on my back and the other under my thighs. Even though I was expecting it, I shrieked in surprise when he suddenly lifted me.“William!” I yelled but he ignored me and just walked into the bedroom, he dropped me on the bed and I had no time to bounce before he was hovering above me. My breath hitched. I barely had time to react before he kissed me again. I returned the kiss with equal fervor. I moved my hands to his chest but he removed them and pinned them above my head with just one hand. I blushed at the action because it protruded my breasts and I felt more naked than I already was.William broke the kiss briefly to murmur against my lips. “You taste so sweet. I could kiss you all day.” Then he kissed me again, deeper, more insistently, as if trying to pour his pent-up longing. He ground his hips against mine and it was embarrassing how soaked my panties were. I needed him inside me as soon as possible but I had embarrassed myself enough fo
William Caddel~•~Eliana was a lot clingier than usual.I didn’t know if she just wanted to keep an eye on me or if she was actually suspicious of my movement but she insisted on following me when I told her I had somewhere to be.Not wanting to directly lie to her, I just told her I had to meet with someone but according to her, it was the weekend and she was meant to spend it with me. When I told her it was important, she insisted on accompanying me. Denying her would either lead to more suspicions or make her mad so I accepted it.Duke was driving me today even if I had given him time off. The last break I’d given him wasn’t used to completion because he came back for my birthday and my grandfather died the morning after. He didn’t want me to handle Eliana’s ex alone so I also had no choice but to let him come along.On our way to the restaurant I told him to meet me at, my phone rang.I brought it out of my pocket only to see that it was Sandra calling. I let out a sigh. I had be
Eliana Brown~•~I knocked on Mr. Edward’s office once before I opened it and stepped in. “You wanted to see me, sir?”Without saying a word, he handed a document to me. I opened it to see that it was the sales report for the last month. “Uhhh…” I trailed off, not knowing what he wanted from me.“You’re doing the report again and you have…” he looked at the watch on his wrist. “About five minutes to get there.”My eyes went wide. I was surprised he was letting me report to William even if Bianca was present. Mr Edward had never liked me and even after finding out I was married to the boss of his boss, he still didn’t care. According to him, it made sense why I was hired. However, he thought I was capable so he wasn’t too bothered by my presence.“Really?”“Four minutes, fifty-two seconds.”“I’ll be on my way immediately!” I exclaimed and rushed out of his office. It seemed like he was finally warming up to me. The other day, he allowed me to meet a client on my own. Thankfully, the c
William Caddel~•~One week later I was finally back at work.Eliana resumed work way before me since her boss already didn’t like her. She didn’t want to give her reasons to fire her.The news of my grandfather’s death had hit the internet and every call I got these days was to offer condolences to me. I wouldn’t lie. It was quite tiring but I understood that my grandfather had a lot of friends and business partners before he retired and left the company for me.I had been tempted to have a private funeral but I wanted his friends to be able to say goodbye to him one last time, which was why I announced his death and the funeral to the public.The funeral happened two days ago yet people were still calling to sympathize with me.A knock on the door interrupted me from my thoughts and without waiting for permission to enter, Duke came in, slamming the door close behind him.I cocked my head at him. “Is something wrong?”“You have an unwanted visitor.”“Who?”“Eliana’s ex.”I frowned.
Eliana Brown~•~After being recognized as William’s wife publicly, it was a lot easier to navigate expensive places.Back when I was just Eliana Brown, it was very hard to even book a reservation for places like this. If my friends and I wanted to dine in such a nice restaurant, we had to book several months ahead, but this time, I could just waltz in and get what I wanted without any stress. I wouldn’t lie. William’s connections were quite good. It was precisely because the owner knew William which was why the staff prioritized me as soon as I got there. It felt good. Also, I didn’t have to keep William waiting. He finally wanted to eat something. If I took too long, he could change his mind. I couldn’t have that.They boxed my order and the owner handed it to me personally, telling me to send his regards to William. I nodded and assured him we’d visit soon before I left and flagged down a taxi.The ride back home wasn’t long but I was impatient and kept bouncing my leg each second
William Caddel ~•~Fate was playing a cruel trick on me.I lost my parents a long time ago at the same time. At the time, I thought my life was over, but my grandparents took me in. Since I was young when my parents died, I didn’t have many memories of them.I didn’t have any uncles, aunties, or cousins that I could lean on. I only had my grandparents.Twenty years ago, my grandmother got very sick and passed away, so it had just been me and my grandfather for the past twenty years.He got older each day and even more weaker as the days went by. I saw this coming. I knew it would happen soon but I still wasn’t prepared for it.Even after the official announcement of his death, I still couldn’t believe he was gone. As though I was in a trance, I dealt with all the paperwork and did all the necessary things to transfer his corpse to the mortuary.Eliana accompanied me every step of the way, staying close by as though she was scared I would snap.I wouldn’t. I felt numb. It hadn’t prop
Eliana Brown~•~I woke up to the sound of rustling on the bed.My head was aching from all the alcohol I had the previous night, but William’s footsteps were too heavy to ignore.I rubbed my eyes as I sat up on the bed, wondering why William was up. It was four o’clock in the morning. Even if he was an early riser, he didn’t wake up so early these days.I watched as he dashed into the closet and came back out dressed in less than a minute.“What’s going on? Where are you going?”He turned to look at me when he heard my voice. “The hospital.”Every atom of sleep cleared from my eyes immediately. “What? Is something wrong with Grandpa?” As I asked that question, I was already getting out of bed. Thankfully, William hadn’t taken off my clothes last night so I didn’t have to bother about finding clothes.He nodded as he grabbed his car keys from the nightstand as well as his phone.“I’m coming with you.”“You had a stressful night. You don’t have to.”“I will.” I rushed into the bathroom
William Caddel ~•~It didn’t matter that we just had a bunch of food and snacks with my grandfather. Eliana took me to dinner again.Well, we went roller skating first, which was chaotic because she had never done it in her life, but after that, we went to a restaurant.I was forty, but apart from my parents, no one had put in this much effort to celebrate my birthday. They died pretty early, which meant I hadn’t been celebrated like this in more than thirty years.If I wasn’t already married to Eliana, I would propose to her again. I didn’t regret any of my actions because she was the best thing to ever happen to me.I looked at my watch. “It’s already past ten. Do you have something else in mind or is this the end?” I couldn’t help but question because it felt like she wanted to celebrate every second of the day with me.Eliana giggled, already feeling tipsy from the one glass of wine she drank. She was such a lightweight. “One more once we’re done here.”I was intrigued, wondering
William Caddel~•~I was still surprised as Eliana opened the door and exited the car. I followed suit anyway.“Happy birthday, dude. Have a nice day.” Duke waved to me and started the engine again when we were out of the car.I didn't even have the time to answer him before he drove off, leaving me and Eliana alone. She was struggling with the bag and the box of cake, but when I offered, she slapped my hand away. “I can do it.”“I know.” I humored her. “I just want to help.”“You're the birthday boy, you shouldn't have to do anything.”My face scrunched up in displeasure. “Don't call me that again. It's insulting.”“My bad.” Eliana laughed. “I forgot the age you're turning today.”“Let's just go in.” I took the beg from her and headed for the hospital doors. She ran behind me and tried to take the bag from me but I didn't let her.Knowing we were obviously going to my grandfather's room, I went straight there. For years, I had spent my birthday with my grandfather, but I never expec
William Caddel~•~As bright and early as six o'clock in the morning, Eliana knocked on my door and pulled me from sleep.I had woken up but I didn't move from the bed. When she got tired of knocking, she pushed the door open and walked in. “Wake up, Will. It's your birthday today.”I kept my eyes closed. She was announcing it like I didn't know that as well. “Will? William?” Her voice got closer and soon I could feel her presence right next to me. “Wake up, William. You are not usually a deep sleeper.” At this point, her face was right next to mine. “Are you doing it on purpose?”I responded by pulling her onto the bed and wrapping my arms around her. I let out a satisfied sigh, loving the feeling of her body mashed up against mine.“Will!” Her voice was muffled since her face was buried in my chest.“It's my birthday today.” I reminded her of what she said just a few seconds ago. “Let me enjoy this for a moment, please.”“Will.” She mumbled for the last time before she eventually g
