SAMANTHA’S POV

Author: Writer Great
last update Last Updated: 2023-08-30 21:46:33

Things were gradually returning to normal, maybe not at the pace I would have loved it but at little was something. Valerie's bandages were taken off, she was no longer limping and could take long walks unaided, the pains she felt when she laughed or did anything strenuous were no longer there and to me that was normal enough.

There was only one thing that was off–all through my stay with Valerie, she'd just not get over talking about Lucas and how it'll be nice to go back to my husband.

Lucas' men still mounted surveillance around the house, when we went to the hospital for check-up and even when we went to the mall to restock on our groceries. I went about my daily activities surfing the internet and doing other charity stuff behind the curtain– that was as far as I could go till Valerie was strong enough to be on her own.

I was yet to decide what I wanted. My office at Java Inc was still very much vacant, that I was sure of. I wasn't mentally ready to face Lucas or Javier. Even th

    The next day, after I had the discussion with Valerie I stayed up all night thinking it through. I finally made a decision– I would go back to Java Inc.Contrary to what I thought, I wouldn't give up on my marriage, not when I didn't give up on the person when he could easily pass for a jerk."Back to the office?" Valerie asked mildly, not particularly excited that was what I'd opt for.I flashed a smile at her as I applied red lipstick all over my lips, "Uhuh… last I checked I was still an employee at Java Inc so I should report at the office. I've been absent for far too long,""How are you going to handle your position as the CEO'S wife," Valerie said, as she walked into my room straight to my bed.I placed the lipstick on the dresser and turned to face her, "I uhh… I honestly don't know, I've not thought of that,"Lucas had made the headlines mid last month as the new CEO of Java Inc. An official memo hadn't been passed yet because the company was still getting over the scandal w

    "What else am I missing out on?" I asked jokingly as I made my way to my seat. I breathe in the signature jasmine freshener of my office,My goodness, how much I've missed working.I slouched into my chair, "Please don't tell me, I know I have so much work to do,"Laura laughed, "Not exactly, Mr Lucas had someone fill in for you while you were away," I gestured for her to take a seat, she obliged, visibly happy I was back to the office.I wonder how Lucas would take it."Where's the person now?" I was concerned.Laura placed the file on her hands on the table, and turned her full attention to me. "The person is supposed to be a contract staff. But, apparently the person outdid himself and got retained by Mr Lucas,"I smiled, "Oh really that's a good one," I stood up and reached for my back, "Where are you going ma'am?" Laura's gaze followed me as I started towards the door."You just said someone filled in for me," I stared at my chair, I wasn't scared of being fired, for what it's wo

    My cheeks flustered red at his words. The word wife suddenly became a major turn on."I'm here now," I said admist laughter and tears– tears of joy this time. "I'm here Mr. Lucas CEO,"The corner of his lips tipped, "Come here Samantha,"I walked around the huge mahogany table and sat on his thighs. I was more than happy to be back, everyone had where they fit in. And as for me, I fitted into Lucas heart, embedded in his core forever.He lifted my chin and ran a lazy fingers across my bottom lips. "What are you doing,""Let's just say I'm trying to take in this much gorgeousness my eyes is looking at," his voice was thick with want.The CEO's your husband. Valerie's words rang a loud bell in my ears. I wrappedy hands around his neck– to hell with being in the office. And it's not like we hadn't fucked in the office before.I leaned in and our lips pressed against each other. The kiss lingered for a while, slowly and sufrace level at first before we went deeper, our tongues searching f

    "Would you still stop by sometimes to check up on me?" Valerie asked, distracting me a bit from work. I wasn't even leaving yet till five p.mI peered at her from the laptop, "Val, I could stay back. You know that," I clicked send on an email, "Or better still you could move in with us," I said half-heartedly. There were more than enough rooms in the Hernandez mansion and I was so sure Lucas wouldn't mind.Valerie squeezed her face at me and straightened her hair. "Oh please, so I would bump into you two fucking on a couch,"My jaw dropped. "Valerie, we do not fuck on the couch," I shook my head, "Jeez, why am I even having this conversation with you,"She laughed and flickered her hair in a sheer show of vanity, "Well, because we're best friends," her tone turned serious, "Now I'm serious–"I rolled my eyes, "You better be," I laughed and half focused on work when I saw the look on her face. She still wanted to say more."Hmm… do you think there'll be no more hitches," she corked her

    Before driving to the house, I stopped by a perfume store to get scented candles. Lucas didn't quite know I'll be coming back to the house today. I didn't even report at the office."Thank you so much," I said to the receptionist at the counter.She packed my order of camwood and lavender candles. "You have such good taste," the woman who looked like she was in her mid thirties said."Thank you for the compliment," I smiled at her, took my order and headed towards the door. It was ten minutes past six– two more hours till Lucas was due from the office and that's if he had no hectic schedule.I placed my package in the backseat and got into the driver's seat. I was trying to hide it, I tried to tell myself I wasn't anxious and going back to the mansion wasn't much of a big deal– I've been living there almost six months.I guess it wasn't to be. I was more nervous than I'd expected. The drive back home was supposed to take a maximum of ten minutes, but I took twenty minutes.When I got

    The atmosphere became thick with so much emotion. Lucas ran his hands through my hair and fisted his hands around them, earning him a low groan from me."I guess you have to tell me just how much you've missed me," he kissed my lips slowly at first, then it began aggressive. His tongues searched insatiably for mine, he lifted me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist as he led us to the bed.He tossed me gently on the bed, the edges of his eyes burned with intense passion. "Pull off your nightgown," he ordered.I easily slipped off the red lingerie, amidst the burning sensation heating my clit. "Spread your legs," I leaned on my back and did as he ordered. Lucas gazed at my bare fold, like some treasure. If it was the old Samantha I would have been embarrassed contrary to that, I longed for him more.He yanked my thighs and buried his head in between my legs, sucking and nibbling at my clit. I gripped his head tightly as his tongue worked on my clit.Goodness!"Argh… I-I-I…" I moan

    The next morning, I woke up to the sound of Lucas footsteps heading towards the door. I rubbed my eyes and yawned lazily. I didn't even remember when I drifted off to sleep."Good morning pumpkin," Lucas greeted.I blew him a kiss, "How was your night?" He questioned."It was amazing?" I turned to look at the alarm clock. It was barely eight in the morning."Why are you leaving so early?" I asked, still feeling sleepy.He walked up to me and kissed me on my forehead, "We have new investors coming in from Mexico today," he ran his fingers along the nape of my neck, "This would be one of our biggest hit in this quarter,"I slipped out of the comforter and wore my robe, "Oh that's good to hear, I wish you well,""Thank you pumpkin," he stood up and slid his hands around my waist, "We have a reservation at two pm, today. Get ready,"I moved back slightly, "Reservation? Where?"Lucas arched his eyebrows at me, "It's a surprise," he kissed me on the lips and a little all over my face before

    I managed to get a hold of myself and gently pulled out of the secretary's grip."What are you doing here?" I asked, trying to mask the tension brewing inside of me.Audrey let out a mocking laughter, "What am I doing here?" She smirked, brought out a piece of paper and flung it at me, "Last I checked you are highly intelligent. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard for you to understand,"I crouched and picked up the paper that fell to the ground. Oh my goodness! My vision turned blurry as I read through the content of the paper.It was stated in the paper that Audrey was pregnant. She's Andres' date remember? A little voice in my head that held on to hope suggested."Andres isn't here. You know where to find it," I said in defiance.Audrey laughed again, this time louder than before, "And who said Andres was responsible?"I'd never been unconscious all my life. But at this point, when she said those words, I lost every sense of reasoning and went totally numb.And who said Andres was respons

    Days had passed and everything seemed to return back to normal except for a few times– when I saw Audrey, either at the house during breakfast or at the office. Asides that, my relationship with Lucas was moving just fine.I got out of the bed and made to walk into the bathroom to prepare for work when I lost balance and fell back on the bed. My head felt fuzzy and my legs were wobbly. I held the back of my neck to keep it steady, but it was like a log of wood was stuck in my head."My goodness…" I muttered under my breath as I managed to stand up and started making my way to the bathroom, when I felt bile rise to my throat. I quickened my steps, turned on the faucet when I stepped foot into the bathroom and threw up all the content in my stomach. I felt fuzzy the more I threw up, I slid onto the floor and leaned my back against the wall.There was a knock on the door. "Come in…" my voice was faint, even through the sound of the water gushing out I knew he must've heard.Lucas came in

    I had mixed feelings about Lucas' actions. Yes, Audrey was a bit too much, but she was carrying his baby or at least that was what she made us think. Perhaps, he should have been a little lenient with her and let her be till she puts to bed."Are you cussing at me because of Samantha?" Audrey's tone was that of bewilderment.A vein in Lucas' neck pulsed hard, "My wife. That's who she is and I wouldn't have you displace her," he tightened his grip in my hands, "Now get out," his voice was calm but had the sharp edge of a sword.Audrey looked at me intently and I could clearly see through the hatred that brewed from her. She stared for a while and left.Lucas turned to face me. "I shouldn't have picked up a fight with her in the office," I regretted my actions, but it was much needed.He placed a finger over my lips, "It's okay pumpkin, you don't have to defend anything," his voice reached to my heart and patched the broken pieces like the holes weren't there to begin with."I love you

    My schedule stared at me and I could barely make out the words. I had a meeting slated for four p.m and I was already bored. I was tired sick of everything happening, Samantha was doing a good job trying to keep it together but, for how long would she keep up with the act.A knock sounded on my door, the door creaked open and my secretary walked in. "Sir the meeting–"I rubbed my forehead in frustration, "I know what time the meeting is slated for,"She nodded and walked towards my desk to pick my laptop. "It's in five minutes right?" I questioned."Yes Sir, and some of the board members are already on their way," she said.I waved my hands in dismissal. I was suffocating and nobody was seeing it, or maybe they were and they can't do anything to salvage the situation. Audrey coming to the office was something I'd never have imagined to happen and it did.What was my father thinking, agreeing to it in the first place? He hated her the moment he set eyes on her, ''She's not good enough

    Soon after Lucas left for his office, Laura walked in looking a bit disgruntled and without my regular morning coffee."Laura, I thought you left to get my coffee?" I questioned, when in fact she left to give Lucas and I privacy.She inched closer to my desk, "The new staff took the cup of coffee from me," her voice was low, I had to strain my ears to make out what she was saying.I clenched my fist into a ball, taking a deep seated breath to quench the anger that was threatening to erupt. "And who's the new lady?"You know who.Laura tugged at the edge of her shirt, "Audrey–"Take a deep breath Samantha. I took a deep breath, paused for a few seconds and forced a smile across my face. "Thank you Laura, you may leave now," I tried so hard to conceal the disdain in my voice."I'm sorry ma'am. I should have been more careful. But, she just snatched it from–"I raised a finger to stop her from saying more. I should have scolded her, but this had absolutely nothing to do with the young la

    All through the drive, all I could think of was; What would the other staff say when they see Audrey and with a growing bump? Besides Lucas' secretary whom I was sure would keep the situation under lock, I wonder who else got wind of the news.I tried to focus on other things. Other things like exposing Audrey for whom she really was. I don't know if it was what comes with old age or his way of punishing Lucas for slipping up but Javier wasn't seeing Audrey for the sly she was and it bothered me."Samantha…"What does she want now?No response. I wasn't in the mood to talk to her and I was only doing what Javier asked, "I just want to get acquainted to the Java's working system," she rubbed her bulging stomach gently, "It would be nice if I get some experience to at least share with him when he comes of age and is ready to follow in the family's footsteps," she laughed.Lucas, where are you?I bit so hard at my lower lips until I felt the coppery taste of blood in my mouth. Don't cry.

    After my visit to Valerie's place, I became more sensitive to Audrey's movements. Where she went to, what she did when we were out. So far, nothing out of the ordinary has happened."Lucas, wait up for me!" Valerie cried from the stairs. We were already running late and one of Audrey's dramas was something we didn't want so early in the morning.Lucas sighed sharply, "What the hell do you want this time?" He gritted.I hope it wasn't what I was thinking. She was dressed in a black velvet gown that stopped just on her ankles, court shoes and a blazer over the gown. It wasn't exactly my style but she looked good."I am coming to the office today," Audrey said.I was a bit taken aback, "Why?" We asked almost at the same time.She rolled her eyes in disgust, "Isn't it obvious?" She sighed, "I want to start working at the company," she looked at me with disdain, "Afterall she works there too,"There was no way in hell. The vein at the back of my neck pulsed hard, and I felt my heart bruise

    Going to the office and coming back to the mansion to see Audrey with her fast growing bump wasn't something I looked forward to. I tried to square my shoulders and act like nothing's wrong when on the contrary, I was dying slowly.Audrey altered everything. The peace in the house, the scent and everything to suit her smell on the basis of being hyper sensitive to smell. Lucas ignored her and acted like she was some sorta ghost. But, I knew he looked forward to having his own child.It wasn't the birth of the child that irked me, it was the vessel bearing that child that made this unacceptable."Good morning Ma'am," Laura greeted when I got to work one morning.I nodded in response and made my way to the office. She followed in silence till we reached the door."Do I have any schedule that'll take me out of the office?" I asked when I slouched into the chair. She looked through her memo."Yes ma'am. A meeting with the investors slated to take place by three p.m and–"I waved my hands

    I waited till the two lovebirds drove off to work before I started getting ready to go out. It was already past nine a.m exactly and I was a few minutes behind time. The prison visiting hours would be due in forty-five minutes.I'd been in touch with Andres since he was convicted of the crime. They'd all forgotten about him, I couldn't not after all we shared together. He wasn't the nicest person but he ignited the fire in me."Where are you off to?" Javier's voice sounded from the stairs when I opened the door. Lousy old man. I rolled my eyes and put on a calm expression before turning to face him.I flashed him a grin, "I'm going for antenatal," I lied. I could only hope he didn't request I go with the chauffeur because then I would be busted.He nodded, "Have a nice day," his voice was cold. I knew he didn't like me, he never did. Not when I was with Lucas, not when I was with Andres. I wondered why he didn't object to I and Andres' relationship when he got wind of it. Maybe he kne

    She looked at the door, maybe hoping for a sign of Lucas then back at me. "Look I didn't ask your husband to get pregnant–"I sensed her anxiety from a mile away. Now was the time to act, "On the contrary, I don't care for you," My gaze lingered on her and fell on her growing stomach. "You would stay here till you give birth,"Audrey leaned into the bed, "I don't intend on moving out after childbirth if that's where you're driving at," her voice was a little shaky but she did a good job hiding it."We'll see about that. After childbirth, you'd go for a DNA test to ascertain who the father of the child is,"Now she got started, her face squeezed into a frown. "What the hell are you saying?"I rolled my eyes. Audrey. Audrey. Audrey. Still as vain as ever, "Exactly what you heard. If you claim Lucas is the father of your child," I paused when the housekeeper walked into the room from the closet and waited till she left, "Then we need to confirm, afterall…" my voice trailed off when she s
