Chapter: CHAPTER SIXTEEN I spent the next two days enjoying nourishing meals made from the freshest garden I recently discovered, evening rides on Dream and also night stargazing on the garden swing It all felt surreal, like I was leaving a princess life in a fairytale and for this moment I just wanted to enjoy it. On the fourth day Seth was no where to be found, I just woke up that morning and was told that he was gone What does that mean? Is he leaving me here all by myself? Well if i am being logical he did leave his business to keep me company all this while. His staff though were nothing but nice and accommodating. He came back the next day but he seemed different. That indifferent yet teasing glint in his eyes was gone almost like something happened What happened between the time he was away? Could it be that the incident at the wedding affected him in some way. He went to the study with his secretary immediately he returned and they spent quite a while there I have been so caught up in the f

Chapter: CHAPTER FIFTEEN Trying to sleep did not work as I kept tossing and turning. I finally managed to sleep in the early hours of the morning and I was grateful that I was able to sleep in I wondered what woke me up as I went into the bathroom for my morning ritual. Soon enough I heard it again, it was the sound of a chain saw I wondered what was going on, I couldn't see very well from my window so I went downstairs to see if I could get a glimpse of the workers and what they were doing. The whole house looked as if there was no one around until he spoke "You are up, good morning" Seth said without even looking up from the iPad in his hand "I figured you might need more sleep so I told them not to bother you" he pressed a button and in the blink of an eye someone was there to answer his call "Serve the lady's breakfast" he instructed, I felt awkward and sorry, like I was giving them double work. Me sleeping in probably means that their whole schedule for today will be different as breakfast was

Chapter: CHAPTER FOURTEEN ESTEFANIA He was long gone before I realized that I was holding my breath all this while. What exactly is going on right now How careless was I to leave that paper in the proposal I sent to him. I remember I was so tired that night I was so frustrated after rewriting the proposal all night and then I was also thinking how to get out of the arranged marriage I was so out of it that I ended up scribbling down my thoughts like I always did whenever I was overwhelmed, but how could I have been so careless as to leave him the full evidence of my plans.Is he going to help me out? And if he was, under what circumstances. "Fanny this was a big mess up, this is somebody that does not like to be boxed into a corner" I said to the empty room Everything he is against is exactly what I have shown myself to be, a woman and a scheming one at that. A knock on the door interrupted my train of thoughts, the knock was accompanied by Mrs Brown and two other girls who looked around my age

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTEEN "How dare you!" "She.....is my bride!" He stated with a definite tone almost as if he was challenging anyone to say otherwise there was loud murmur as the congregation tried to make sense of what was happening "Now Peaches, you can't go against our agreement just like that" he continued in a tone you would use to coax a child what agreement was he talking about, I don't remember him and I agreeing to anything I just stood there looking at him shocked and speechless, he climbed the stage and walked right up to me, stroked a loose strand of hair behind my ear and whispered "You can close your mouth now Peaches and no this is not a dream" turning to the two men standing, ready to pounce on him he continued "Well now that we have cleared the air and you also have your answer, we will be on our way" He took my hand and made to leave but my uncle was not ready to give up, he dragged me back by the arm, I could see anger and deep hatred in his eyes. I am sure that if given t

Chapter: CHAPTER TWELVE Estafania's POV I had a long debate with myself about the best place possible to meet him and still don't know if I made a good choice by going to his house. I was already at the gate of the community when I started doubting my actions. "Sorry ma'am you are not on the list of his guest" the man said looking from my face to my I D card and then to his tab Why did I not think about this little detail. A gated community for the super rich, of course the security measures will be top notch "Please sir if you can you help me contact him or anyone from his house so I can explain to them who I am, I promise you that he will want to see me" The two men looked at me from head to toes in disgust, I am pretty sure they think I am an obsessed girl trying to get in. Oh Lord please rescue me "I will advice you to go home young lady" the older man said "......or if you have your host contact, call him yourself" I should have gone to his office but without an appointment would I be allowe

Chapter: CHAPTER ELEVEN Seth's POV "What the heck man get it together!" I muttered under my breath " Hmmm........you said something? " "Nevermind" we continued sipping on the drinks. She reached again for her ankles, massaging and finally tried taking off those damned heels, in a bid to get comfortable I unconsciously bent down to reach for her legs the motion disorienting her for a while and causing her to also bend as well giving me a little view of her cleavage from the little V-cut on her dress I trailed my hands around her ankle applying gentle pressure, I unbuckled the danmed heels and got them out of the way, moving back a little I picked up her feet one by one and massaged it for her while maintaining eye contact with her Her feet were small and soft to touch, they were beautiful with perfectly manicured toe nails. Lost in the unexplainable feeling I got from rubbing her feet, My hand trailed upwards to her calf then knees, as if it had a mind of its own, continued it's way to her thigh
