"Thank you very much, John." Emery got down from the car and shut the door. "I will take some time here. Would you wait behind or go and I will call when I am ready to go?" She asked the chauffeur.

"I will be right here," the middle-aged man smiled, "the boss made me promise that I will look after you and make sure I don't leave you alone. He wouldn't have let me drive you here if he didn't have an important meeting this morning."

Emery nodded her head, "I see," she said. "I will be inside, just call me if anything urgent comes up."

"I will, take good care of yourself and call me too…" She turned back to look at him. "If you need me." He added, grinning.

Emery smirked and left him alone. As she walked towards Amery's art gallery, she noticed some changes like there was a new and better signpost that displayed everything that was done in the studio, and displayed more of her artworks. The building had been repainted, she almost didn't recognize it and the door was changed to a stronge

    Emery's eyes flickered down the restaurant, she was scrutinizing the different people who were around. She didn't know why she was doing that, in fact staring at the people's faces made them uncomfortable, but in a way, it made her feel good, at least she was getting rid of the anxiety that was building up inside of her as she'd be meeting with Benhail tonight. It was the thirtieth day of another month.She had arrived earlier than the stipulated time because she was eager to learn a new thing about him. The waiter who always took their orders came around and asked what she wanted to have. She replied by telling him to come again when Benhail was around.She glanced down at the wristwatch that was strapped on her wrist, taking note of the time, she lifted her head and a kiss landed on her cheeks. "Benhail!" She figured out with smiles all over her face. "How did you know I was here? How did you find me?" She looked around and he smiled.He drew out a chair and perched on it, "Have you

    Emery set the cake she had prepared with Agnes on the dining table. She placed a small knife close to it and took some pictures before moving aside.Agnes walked in with bottles of Gunther's wine, the blue and the red. She took a good look at the decorations and nodded her head satisfactorily."He has never celebrated his birthday at home. I don't even know the day he was born, but now I know and it's all thanks to you ." Agnes smiled, patting Emery's back."Mariana spilled it, you should thank her if you want to thank someone." Emery giggled. "Will he like this?" She asked. "I am not sure about what I have done. Though it looks cute but…""There is no but. Benhail isn't the type to mock people's efforts. He would appreciate this no matter how small it is." Agnes said, giving her a reassuring smile.Emery nodded her head, hoping that he would appreciate her efforts. He had been avoiding her since that day at the restaurant, he only talked to her if he needed to know about the baby. Sh

    Benhail stared into her eyes, a sly smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "You were jealous, weren't you?" He grazed his hand through her back and slowly pulled the blouse off her head. He unhooked her bra, her breasts popping out in full glory."I wasn't," Emery shifted on the bed, trying to steady herself before he placed his mouth on her nipples. "I just…fuck!" She groaned when his lips brushed through her nipples; it felt hot and sharp."I just want to do something for you, give you a birthday present that you'd like. I thought hard and came up with the surprise idea." She said, relishing his mouth that was wrapped around her nipples, she held tightly onto him, straddling him as he gently sucked hard on her nipples.After a while, Benhail let go of her pink nipple which was now red from love-biting. "This is the best gift I can get today and I am glad it's coming from you, Emery." Their eyes locked for seconds, she didn't feel her breath throughout the moment he stared into her

    "I don't want to go with you," Emery muttered, slipping into her pajamas and Stzing away from Benhail. "There is no point.""Emery, I already told Isabella we would show up today. She'd have probably made dinner for us, why aren't you going with me?" He sat next to her, staring into her eyes."And I said I don't want to go," she stood her ground. "Why should I go with you when there is nothing special between us? You introduce me to everyone as your woman but deep down, it's an act. I am tired of doing this, I am tired of playing along with what you want and all I get is you, ditching me at the end of it all. You made the 'I am your woman' act up. It was never stated in the contract that I signed with you and I don't wish to continue with you."Benhail flickered his eyes shut, digging his claws into his hair, he sighed. "Why are you mad at me?""I want to sleep and if you don't want me here I'd gladly take the guest room." She rolled on the bed."You have made up your mind to decline

    Emery trudged to the reception, waiting for the Doctor to come back to them with a report. Agnes tried to soothe her, but she failed. John just sat on one of the chairs, hoping that his boss was fine."What if something had happened to him, why did he collapse? What happened? I am so scared." She gripped Agnes' clothes, tears rushing down her face like a river."He was fine before he fell, just calm down. I am sure he will be fine." Agnes said, unsure of her words.One of the nurses came out, she searched the reception for them. Emery ran to meet her, she looked at her, her hands shaking as she stood there with trembling legs.The look on the nurse's face wasn't a pleasant one, she was old and the wrinkles on her face popped out as she stared at Emery. She bit her lips and took all the courage in her to utter the words. "How is he?""The Doctor wants to see you in his office," she told Emery. She left her after she described the Doctor's office to her. Although Emery had been to the h

    Benhail had been discharged from the hospital, but Emery didn't let him resume back to work that quickly. Since the Doctor told him he needed to rest, he had to take a break from work for some days.He had been spending his time working from home. When he wasn't working, he was curled up on the bed with Emery, having a nice time with her. Things were beginning to go on well between them. He wasn't sure if it was because he fainted, but Emery had been extremely submissive to him; she did all he wanted her to do without hesitation.Right now, she was curled up in his arms and they were seeing a movie together in the living room. She had lured him into watching the movie with him. When the movie ended, she took an excuse to get something from the room. He kissed her on the cheeks before letting go.Emery smiled as she sashayed her way into the bedroom, she went in and found the onesie she had bought for the baby when she visited the shopping mall with Agnes. She laughed, wondering if Ben

    "Emery," he whispered.She silenced him, placing two fingers on his lips.She wasn't ready to listen to his rants, she didn't want to know why she couldn't love him. Her mind was already made up about him. She was ready to love him. He'd been everything good to her, how could she not make his life worth living?"Don't push me away, Benhail." She begged him.He stood up from the bed and walked over to the window side to have a glimpse of nature. Admiring the view of the tall buildings from his room, the beautiful green color of some tall green plants. They were as beautiful as Emery. He shut his eyes and heaved a sigh."You can't love me," he felt her presence around him."Why can't I love you? The contract we signed?" She went over to the closet and brought out her copy of the signed document. She lifted the paper to his face and ripped it to shreds. Benhail's eyes widened, "did you just rip that?""Yes," Emery took a bold step. "If that's the reason you are holding back, I just tore

    It's been four months since Emery got pregnant, and her baby bump was already shooting out. Benhail had gotten much better and was back to working at the office. He had implored her not to talk about his illness to him, he only wanted to be reminded of the good things that were happening in his life; Emery and the baby.Benhail smiled when he remembered the look on his face the first time Emery felt the baby kicking. She had hurried to his study, squealing and urging him to feel the movements of the tiny human that was inside of her. It was a big celebration for them, and he promised to do all within and out of his power to make sure the baby and Emery were safe. He was still lost in thoughts, oblivious of Mariana's presence in his office.She drew out an armchair, and the screeching sound of the chair caused him to jolt out of his thoughts."You must be very happy with those smiles on your face," she said, crossing her legs."Is there something that I need to know about?"

    The Shrill cry of baby Ella woke Emery from her afternoon nap. Tossing on the bed, she groaned and looked at her husband who was busy typing on the computer."Your baby is crying," Emery grumbled, attempting to get out of bed, but her eyes were still heavy. She hadn't slept overnight, baby Ella had been awake all night and she was trying her best to put her to sleep."I just gave her her food," Benhail left what he was doing, walking over to the baby's cot that was in their bedroom. They had moved the baby's cot to the bedroom immediately after Emery was put to bed, two months ago. She was against the idea of keeping her baby in a different room, so Benhail suggested they moved the cot to their room."She won't stop crying," Emery croaked."Get back to sleep, I will get her." He heaved the baby out of his cot and placed a soft kiss on her cheeks. She was tiny, and looked so much like him, exactly like him, making Emery jealous of the fact that she carried her for nine months and she c

    Some months later, Emery was dressed in a white chemise, standing in front of the full-length mirror. She stared into the mirror with tears in her eyes."We will be late if you continue to cry." Amery hugged her from the back, handing her a small handkerchief to wipe away the tears that stained her cheeks."I can't believe I am getting married today," Emery gently wiped the tears from her eyes. "Still baffles me.""You should be happy, Emery. There is no reason for you to cry.""I am happy, Amy. I am very happy, and these are tears of joy." She hugged her sister, gently sobbing into her shoulder."I am happy we found happiness, we've been through so much together and we deserve every good thing that's coming our way. Your wedding is today and mine is next month." Amery patted her sister's back. "Our parents will be so proud of us wherever they are.""I wish they were here to witness this day."

    "Happy birthday to us." Emery and Amery said in unison, clinking glass against glass. Cheering, they downed the content of the wine and Lola served them another round."To my favourite girls in the whole world, I wish you the very best life has to offer. I love you two so much." She raised the hem of her gown, leaning forward to kiss Emery on the cheeks, after she was done, she moved over to Amery. "Common, let's have a party." She clapped her hands as she walked to the centre of the room to tell the disc jockey to play some nice music.Amery and Emery had virtually the same thing on; the same knee-length straight gown but of different colours. Amery's was red while Emery settled for the pink one, the same pair of silver-coloured stilettos, the same makeup and their hair was done in the same style; they looked elegant and simple at the same time."Oh my, Liam is here." Amery squealed when she sighted Liam walking into the small restaurant they had rented for themselves for that evenin

    Benhail was standing in front of her when she swivelled around, she smiled, walking closer to him."How long have you been here?" Emery asked, snaking her arms around him."Since you started coordinating the models." He kissed her cheeks. "You are doing well, but don't stress yourself. The baby doesn't want stress, you know right?" She nodded her head to his words. "And I brought you snacks, I feel like you need them." He handed a bag to her, she took it from him and kissed his cheeks."Thank you, I was hungry." She led him to the couch that was in the lounge. She had stopped hiding the bump since the day she made up with Benhail; she hid it before because she didn't want the words of her pregnancy to spread to him.She placed the polythene bag on the centre table that was in the lounge, she picked one from the croissants, a bit on it and moaned satisfactorily."Tastes very nice," she gave one to him but he refused to take it from her. "Why don't you want to eat with me?" She asked, f

    Emery walked into the living room after Benhail dropped her. She met her sister sitting on the couch with her arms curled under her legs. She ignored her, walking into the room to meet Lola but Amery stopped her."Can we talk?" She asked Emery.Emery wanted to say no to her, but she changed her mind about that. She was on good terms with Benhail, things were good again it was because of Amery's effort to bring them back, she owed her one there."I am sorry," she started, staring into her sister's eyes. "I am sorry I went too fast even when you didn't want to. Can you forgive me?" Amery looked into her eyes, biting her lips.Emery smiled, her sister was too cute she couldn't resist her if she was being that way."I was truly worried about you, I am so sorry." She got up from the couch and walked down to sit on the sofa Emery was seated on. "You know we've always looked out for each other and got each other's back, I was just being a good sister, I didn't mean to hurt you." She took her

    "Guess it won't work here," Emery drawled. "Let's go home then," he looked into her eyes. She nodded her head in support. He kissed her lips and she got down, sitting back on the car's seat.Benhail started the car, driving at a very fast speed. The bulge between his legs had grown bigger and he couldn't wait anymore, he wanted to be buried deep inside of her, kneading her, thrusting in and out of her as she screamed his name.He arrived home shortly after, Emery kissed him in the car but he pulled away. "Come in with me."She trailed behind him like a lost puppy. He gripped her arms when they got into the house, tugging her closer, he stared into her eyes. "Benhail," she gasped and placed her lips on his. It started gingerly, carefully taking her lips in his and nibbling on them, she snaked her hands around his neck and moaned into his ears. "Please take me, I want you now, Benhail.""I know you do," he ripped her dress off her body in an instant. Emery gasped, giggling after. She

After the show, she went to address the models. When she was done with them, she strolled outside for fresh hair when she bumped into Anide and Benhail. She was surprised to see her.Anide ran towards her and pulled her into a big hug. "You are doing well and I am so proud of you." She told her."Thank you so much, I learnt from you." She said jokingly, hugging her again. "You didn't tell me you were coming though, I would have made reservations for you." She pouted her lips, ignoring Benhail even though he was standing right in front of her."Oh, I didn't have plans of coming over. Benhail wanted me to come with him." She smiled at Benhail. "And now there is something that interests me, I will see you guys later." She smirked at them, walking towards the photographer.Emery laughed, she turned

    The next morning, Emery was dressing up for work when she heard a knock at the door. Lola just left the house and she figured she was the one knocking since she had the habit of forgetting her things at home."What did you forget this time?" Emery opened the door and her eyes met with Benhail's. Her shoulders dropped, and her heart started to beat erratically. She was about to close the door but he stopped her. He grabbed her hands, pulled her inside and slammed the door shut."What are you doing here?" She asked him.His eyes met with hers when he stepped into the room, she looked away from him and repeated. "What are you doing here?""Emery, were you going to keep it away from me forever?" He inched closer to her. "Why didn't you tell me?""Tell you what? What are you talking about?" She feigned confusion. She knew he already figured out about the pregnancy, and she was sure Lola told him about it."Isn't it glaring?" His eyes ogled her body. She looked down to see that she was in

    "Hey," Emery smiled at Mariana when she got to her office. "Is your boss in?" She asked."Yes, he is." Mariana stood up to hug Emery. "It's been a while.""Yes, it is," Emery responded. Mariana directed her to sit down. "How have you been and how's your work going?" "Been great!" Mariana smiled, "I heard and saw that you started your fashion brand. Really beautiful, congratulations to you, Emery." "Thank you so much, Mariana. I would have loved you to patronise us but we only deal with plus-sized women.""I heard that too, a very great idea. I am so happy for you. That has always been my dream before I became a secretary to Benhail, but I love my job more now." She fanned herself dramatically."That's cool too." Emery nodded her head. "We agreed to be friends but we don't follow each other on any social media platform. Did Benhail tell you that I have people who can publicise your brand for you?""No, he didn't." She shook her head. "You do have them?" She asked, and Mariana nodded
