A loveless marriage

“Dad, I don’t understand,” I stammered as I stood there looking at my old father who had just blurted out some unbelievable news. “Darling please understand that I didn’t mean to hurt you,” He replied as he held my hand. “You don’t need to bother yourself,” He continued. Tears began to fill my eyes as I thought about the trouble my dad had gotten himself into. “What exactly did you steal,” I said, as I wiped the tear drop that had just rolled down my face. “I didn’t steal anything but they’re accusing me of stealing some money at the company,” He said while he sat on the couch. “A-A-And how much do you think it is?” I asked stammeringly. I knew it would be a heavy amount but I was scared of how much it would be. “A million dollars honey,” He replied and sighed. “W-Well, I know what to do. We must look for a loan shark to lend us the money,” I said as I walked up to my father to sit beside him on the couch. He grabbed my hand and placed it on his and faced me. “Honey

A one night stand in paradise

I found myself in front of a bar close to the mansion. I thought about how I actually needed a drink especially after the long day I had just had. I walked into the bar and it was the typical bar setting. Couples were already booed up, The heartbroken were having their whiskey at the bar while the men celebrating were having karaoke sessions. I couldn’t help but watch them fool theirselves singing. I hadn’t gone for a karaoke session ever since the days of college. I sat on the high stool that was facing the female bartender. “What can I get you sweetheart?” She said with a smile as she shook the container of her cocktail. “You tell me. I was forced into a marriage this evening only for me to find my new husband sleeping with another woman,” I said and placed my hand on my cheek. “Oh honey, let me whip out some vodka for you,” She said with a worried look. “No ice please,” I said, then gave a smile. I couldn’t wait to feel the buzz of the alcohol in me. I watched the

You’re all I think about.

I woke up to see myself wrapped in Daniel’s arms. Although he was a stranger, everything felt so right being with him. As I watched him sleep, I picked up my phone and saw it was 3:02am and I knew I had to head back to the mansion. I stood up, packed my things and gave Daniel a final glance. “It’s a pity I don’t get to see you again,” I whispered. “I can’t put my father’s safety in jeopardy by not abiding to this marriage.” I continued. After a last glance, I took off into the night. Thankfully for me I saw a taxi who was able to drive me to the estate. Throughout the ride, I kept on reminiscing on the amazing night I had spent with Daniel. I had never been satisfied by a man to this extent in my life. I picked up my phone and opened a picture of my father and squeezed my phone tightly. “All will be well daddy,” I muttered as I stared at the road through the taxi window. In no time the taxi driver parked the car at a corner. “We have arrived at your destination ma’

A party to remember

The day had finally come. Madam Hildegard’s birthday party. I was definitely nervous but I wanted this long awaited day to pass. “Honey, I got you a gift,” Matthew said as he walked into our room. “Really, what is it?” I asked with a smile as I got up from our bed. All of a sudden he brought out a box and opened it, revealing the most pretty diamond necklace that I had ever seen. “Aww Matthew thank you,” I said as I threw my arms around him for a hug. Our relationship took a drastic change ever since the night that we had sex. He got my dad a nice apartment, kept on gifting me and constantly reassuring me about his love for me. His approach to get me to be his wife was indeed awful, but he spent his days in our marriage proving he loved me. Everything was going so great for us that I had partially forgotten about him cheating on me. “All set,” He said as clipped the hook of the necklace around me. “You look splendid darling,” He said as he spun me around admiring

The new woman

My heart stopped when Daniel spoke those words: "This is Victoria Sinclair. She's my girlfriend." I could feel the air being sucked out of the room, as if everyone was just as shocked as I was.There was a long, awkward pause where nobody spoke, and I could see Madam Hildegard's eyes widening with surprise. Even Matthew, who was usually calm and composed, looked momentarily stunned.Then, just as quickly as the silence had fallen, the room burst into a chorus of congratulations."How wonderful!" Madam Hildegard exclaimed, clapping her hands together. Her voice was loud and cheerful, but I could tell she was sizing Victoria up with her sharp, calculating gaze.Victoria smiled sweetly, though I couldn’t help but notice the way she clung to Daniel's arm a little too tightly, like she was trying to stake her claim.She had the kind of beauty that could easily make a woman like me feel insecure—tall, slim, with curves in all the right places, and a mane of thick, glossy black hair that fel

The midnight visitor

I stared at Victoria for a moment, her words echoing in my mind: “You should really consider watching your back.” I clenched my fists at my sides, trying to suppress the surge of anger bubbling up inside me. But I couldn’t hold back anymore.“Who the hell do you think you are?” I snapped, my voice trembling with rage. “You have no right to tell me what I can or cannot do. This isn’t some game where you get to make the rules.”Victoria turned back to face me, her lips curling into a wicked smile. “Oh, darling,” she said, her tone dripping with condescension, “I’m not telling you what to do. I’m giving you a warning. A little heads-up, if you will. I know how this family operates, and trust me, they don’t take kindly to women like you who think they can weasel their way into their good graces.”Her words felt like a slap across the face, but I refused to let her see how much they hurt. Instead, I lifted my chin defiantly. “That’s where you’re wrong,” I said through gritted teeth. “I’m n

Hospital drama

I glanced over at Daniel, my heart still racing from the whirlwind of emotions I’d experienced tonight. His presence was oddly comforting, yet there was an unspoken tension between us that hung in the air.“How’s Madam Hildegard?” I asked softly, trying to mask my anxiety.Daniel let out a sigh of relief. “She’s fine. It was just a little scare. The doctors said she’ll be okay with some rest.”I closed my eyes for a moment, letting out a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding. “Thank God,” I said, my voice full of gratitude. I looked up at him, still feeling a lingering sense of unease. “But you can’t be in my marital room alone with me, Daniel.”He raised an eyebrow, a hint of confusion crossing his face. “Jane, I’m not here for what you think. I came to check on you and make sure everything is alright.”I felt a pang of guilt at his words. It wasn’t like I had suspected him of anything other than concern, but the situation had me on edge. “I wasn’t planning on telling anyone about w

Welcome party

Jordan barely had time to blink before Matthew's fist collided with his jaw. The sound of the punch echoed through the hospital room, and for a split second, everything went silent. My heart skipped a beat as Jordan stumbled back, eyes flashing with anger."You son of a—!" Jordan growled as he regained his balance, ready to lunge at Matthew.But before he could throw a punch, Daniel leapt between them, his hands pushing both men apart. "Enough!" Daniel barked, his voice ringing with authority. "This isn’t the time or the place for this.”I stood there, frozen, as the tension between the men crackled in the air. Matthew's chest heaved with anger, his face flushed red. Jordan, despite his calm exterior earlier, now looked ready to fight. I could feel the panic rising inside me as I tried to figure out what to do.“Both of you, stop this right now!” Madam Hildegard’s voice cut through the chaos. Her eyes were blazing with fury as she looked between her sons and her lover. “I love Jordan,

Friend from the past

A shocked silence fell over the room. You could have heard a pin drop. For a few seconds, no one said anything, their eyes wide with disbelief. I glanced around the table, taking in their reactions.Madam’s face lit up with surprise and excitement. Matthew looked stunned but then broke into a wide smile. Victoria’s expression was unreadable, but I could see the gears turning in her mind.As the room burst into applause and cheers, Matthew stood up from his seat, beaming with pride. He pulled me into a tight embrace. He leaned down, pressing a kiss to my cheek, and then he whispered in my ear, so softly that no one else could hear, “You’ve got a lot of explaining to do, Jane.”My heart skipped a beat, and I swallowed hard, forcing a smile as I nodded. “I know,” I whispered back, my voice trembling slightly.Madam’s voice rang out over the chatter, full of joy. “An heir to the Vanderbilt dynasty! This is wonderful news! We must celebrate properly!”The room buzzed with excitement, eve
