RAYMOND’s POV…It seemed as though the world was at a standstill. For a moment, I couldn’t believe that she was reciprocating as against what I had thought. I closed my eyes and opened them, but she was still there, peering into my eyes, with our tongues roaming around each other’s mouth.When I didn’t see any form of resistance coming from her, I pulled her by the waist until I felt her breasts on my chest.She smiled calmly and that caused cold shivers to run down my spine. My stomach twirled and churned in excitement while I tried to keep my knees from giving me away.I caressed her waists softly just as I dug deeper into her mouth, savoring each part of it and gulping down the sweet taste of mint and strawberry that came from it.She gave me a soft bite on the lower part of my lips and that caused me to chuckle and go fiercer with her.The heat was too much at this point. I wanted her and I was certain that she wanted me as well. None of us were able to control the wave of emotio

THIRD PARTY'S POV"Really?" Ariana frowned, slightly. Lucy had just informed her that she would be going to another town to complete her studies. She was proud of her and as well happy for her. However, Nikki was thinking of following her there. "Is that like necessary?""I mean it's just to help her settle in and once that's done, I will be back home," Nikki explained."If you really don't want to tag along you don't need to but now that you suggested it I could really use some company on the road," Lucy smiled."Well, if you put it that way, fine," Ariana accepted.It wasn't like being home alone was a hassle but she had gotten quite used to their company especially Nikki's over the past few months, she was so used to their company that she was sure she was going to get bored till Nikki was back."Come on, it's not that bad, it's not like I am going forever," Nikki laughed reassuring Ariana that she would be back as soon as Lucy was settled in, it was obvious Ariana wasn't fully ac

"Raymond," Ariana muttered. She wondered if Raymond had been eavesdropping on their conversation or if he was just walking in. She remembered she had messaged him on her way to the hospital but it was only for her own safety and for him to be aware of where she currently was.When he didn't reply, she concluded he was busy with work and would reply when he was settled. Unknown to her that Raymond was actually on his way to the hospital the moment he saw the message. She was surprised and at the same time pleased to see him here.Raymond smiled at Ariana before his eyes went to Nikki who was staring at him and back at Ariana, it was silly to say but the reason he was here was because he wanted to be around Ariana. Nikki's accident was just an excuse and the fact that Ariana was going to be alone was another excuse for him to have her in his house.He had overheard their conversation briefly as he was stepping in and concluded on what needed to be done, Ariana's safety was important to

ARIANA'S POV"You cheated," I laughed realizing I had been tricked, it was obvious he knew it was going to rain today. The weather forecast wasn't always consistent and I had learnt that the funny way today."You are not planning on backing out, are you?" he asked."Oh my," I yelled as the rain started to get my clothes wet, I wanted to protest against the bet but right now I just wanted to get out of the rain as soon as possible. I stared at Raymond who was already pulling his jacket off, at first I was wondering what he was up to until he placed it over my hair.Was he trying to be a gentle man? Well, he was definitely a gentle man.Holding my hands afterwards he said at the top of his voice as the sound of the thunder was getting louder, "there is a shade in the garden over there."I nodded my head holding his hand firmly as it was obvious we were going to have to make a run for it to the garden. We started to run down to the garden hand in hand but half way I concluded running was

RAYMOND'S POVI really tried to concentrate on the call I was currently on when I saw her in her pajamas heading towards me, I thought she would not be up by now and was planning on telling one of the maid to check on her later in the day and serve her breakfast in her room but I was pleased to see her here with me.I was sure my secretary was explaining in details about what I had just informed her to do but instead I disconnected the call smiling at Ariana, she looked so beautiful in the morning. It made me wonder what it would feel like for us to sleep in the same bed and me having to wake up to see her sleeping like an angel."Morning," I replied her with a smile as I stare at her face, "How was your night?" I asked even though it was obvious to me that she slept well because she looked so cheerful this morning."I slept well, yours?" she said to me in a low voice."Same," I didn't exactly sleep well because I had been swamped with a lot of paper works to review overnight but it w
