Chapter 5 Leilani Hades My heart pounded hard in my chest as I sat in Mr. Derek's living room while waiting for him. Mr. Derek was my dad's best friend before he passed away, and he had since been our family's close friend after dad's demise. I didn't want to reach out to him if not that he was the last hope that I had. My attention was drawn to his footsteps descending the staircase, and my heart missed a beat as I fondled my fingers nervously. “I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, dear. I was attending to something in the room,” he groaned, sitting on the couch. Mr. Derek was in his early forties. “It's fine, Sir. Good day, Sir,” I bowed to him, and he waved his hand dismissively, smiling at me. “Leilani, right?” He asked, and I nodded. I had told him over the phone yesterday. “Uhm… Sir, about what we discussed,” I said almost in a whisper, my heart beating rapidly like it was going to explode. “Oh… right…” he paused, standing up from where he was sitting. I th

Chapter 4 Leilani Hades I was welcomed by Lyra in the living room, polishing her nails. "Look who we have here. It's the latest bride..." She smiled, putting her nail polish away. She crossed her legs, reclining on the couch as she looked at me with a mocking smile on her face. "How is life treating you in your new matrimonial home? It must be horrible being with that loser, right?" She tucked her hair away, a smirk settling on her face. "Jaxon is no longer your boyfriend, but my husband now. Mind the way you address him!" I snapped at her, and she raised her eyebrows briefly. "Wow! I didn't see that coming. Have you fallen in love with Jaxon already?" She asked, and chuckled. "I shouldn't be asking you that. You both are perfect match for eachother, so it's not surprising," She rolled her eyes. "Where is Mom?" I asked restlessly. "Mom? She obviously is not here," She shrugged casually. "Where is she?" I demanded, my voice a bit louder and furio

Chapter 3 Jaxon Grant My attention was drawn to the aroma coming from the dining room as soon as I woke up in the living room. My body ached since I was not used to sleeping on the couch, but I felt relieved as the thought of my wife crossed my mind. The table was already set with series of dish which all looked delicious. My mouth salivated at the sight of them. "Good morning, wife," My lips curled up in a smile as I walked over to Lyra. "Good morning," Her voice was low and shaky, turning to glance at me with a forced smile on her face. As much as I didn't want to give it much thought, I couldn't help but notice how awkward she had been around me since yesterday that we got married. 'You two just got married. It's only right that she feels this way' I tried to convince myself. Besides, we didn't date for long before getting married, and we've only hung out a couple of times. "You didn't have to stress yourself," I said, going to stand beside her. I tu

Chapter 2 Leilani Hades Jaxon was already waiting for me in front of the city hall by the time I arrived, so I alighted from the cab with my luggage. A suitcase that had everything I owned. "Lyra," He had the most joyous smile on his face as he walked up to me. "I was worried about you. Are you ok? I've been trying to reach your phone but you weren't taking your calls," He held my shoulders, his pair of brown eyes gazing into mine worriedly. He had the most innocent and handsome chiseled face with a sharp jawline, a pair of charming hazel eyes that had me melting inside, thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, nubian-shaped nose, small sexy lips. And a set of white dentition with the most beautiful smile ever. "Are you ok?" He cupped my cheek in his warm palm, and my heart skipped a beat. What if he finds out that I wasn’t Lyra? "Ye...yeah. I'm fine. Uhm... about that...I...I... Something happened to the phone," I stuttered. I feared he might

Chapter 1 Leilani Hades "Mom, please help me. I need to save nana," I fell to my knees, begging Mom with tears in my eyes. "I can't let her die," I shook my head, whimpering. "Why should I give you money to save Felicia, Leilani? Stop trying so hard. She's already old. She's going to die, anyway," Mom looked at me with that usual expression disgust and hatred as she stated casually. 'Why does she hate me so much?' This is the question I've been asking myself for years but didn't have an answer to. I would've sworn she adopted me if not that we had striking resemblance. "Why don't you stop being pathetic because of that old hag, Leilani? I'm disappointed in you," Lyra, my twin sister rolled her eyes, crossing her legs. She was sitting on the couch with Mom. This old hag she was referring to was the only family I had. The only one who ever cared about me. The only one who never bullied or looked down on me when my biological family did. How could I Iet h

Lusting Over My Dad’s Best Friend

Lusting Over My Dad’s Best Friend

I know it’s wrong to want my dad’s best friend, a man who was old enough to be my dad, but what could I possibly do when I see him in my dream and imagination each time I close my eyes? What could I do when this desire keeps driving me nuts, when I keep getting wet down there just at the sight of him? I tasted the forbidden fruit, and I liked it. I liked every inch of it, and now I can’t bring myself to stop wanting more…

Chapter 48 Derek “It's the class president,” “Derek is here,” My classmates were quick to announce my presence as I made my way into the meeting hall where almost all my classmates were already waiting. My eyes dropped on Scarlett, and I almost smiled when I saw her standing out perfectly in the crowd. How she was always able to melt my heart in a way that no one woman could ever do, was something I couldn't still wrap my head around. Perhaps, she was just a special being. I made my way to the front of the hall, the noise slowly died down as I stood behind the podium until the loud silence took over. Even the sound of a pin drop would be heard at that moment. “Uh…” I began, taking a short deep breath. I wasn't cut out for this, but what could I do when I had to address the happenings? Damn the school rector for putting me up to this. I wouldn't be here if he hadn't asked me to. 'The school is already in chaos, Derek. You need to address this' He had pleaded with me while a

Chapter 47'Let's be friends' My heart ached as those words kept repeating in my head. What was she trying to say? That I wasn't good enough for a relationship? I wasn't her type of man? Who was then? That old man? She's going to regret this.The fading reverberating laughter on the rooftop brushed my ears as I took the stairs up, but was welcomed by Alexa standing close to the rail with her phone pressed to her ear with her right hand, and her left hand holding the rail.“That's sweet. I love you too,”I watched as she concluded her call. She flinched when she turned and found me standing with my hands tucked inside my pockets.“Derek?” She pulled a surprised face, and I finally walked up to her.“Have you been standing there?” She raised her eyebrows, and I scoffed silently.Bitch! I wasn't eavesdropping on your conversation.I put on a smile, shaking my head and said. “I just got here. I only heard ‘that’s sweet. I love you',”She breathed out, relief creeping up her face.“Is the

Chapter 46Scarlett Wolff“How is Mr. Hottie?” Alexa whispered in my ear as we headed into the class, and I chuckled. My mind was about to explode, and I really needed to let out everything because I couldn't keep it inside me. What happened was too much to handle.“He is fine,” I smirked at her, and she gasped, covering her mouth.“Something happened, right? You better tell me everything without leaving a single thing out,” she pointed her index finger at me as we walked to take a seat, and I chuckled.“I wasn't planning to,” I smirked at her, and she chuckled.“That is why I love you. Now, spill the beans,” she kicked the air excitedly, covering her face as her cheeks flushed.I told her everything that happened between Lucien and I this morning, and by the time I was done narrating everything, she was sitting frozen on the spot with her eyes widened.“All that happened?” She cupped her cheeks in her palms, raising an eyebrow questioningly.“Fuck! This is… my goodness! I need someon

Chapter 46DerekI felt a surge of anger as I watched Scarlett stepping out of the car that just came to drop her off in front of the school gate. It was the same person who came to pick her from my house last night.The way she smiled as she waited until he drove off, left a sting in my heart. Even though it looked like it, I refused to believe it. She couldn't have a thing with that man. I refused to even think of it even though it was obvious.I walked over to her, arriving at the time she turned to come inside through the gate. She paused the moment she saw me, shock was written on her face. Was she hoping no one would see her when she was busy showing him off like he owned her?“Hey!” She smiled at me. “Good morning,”“Hmm. Good morning,” I tucked my hands inside my pockets, and briefly looked in the direction the car went as if I could still see it, before turning my gaze back to her.“I see you got home safely last night,” I gave her a smile, even though I was burning inside.“

Chapter 44Scarlett WolffMy heart thumped hard against my ribcage as Lucien slid his hand underneath my robe, caressing my bare thigh. My stomach became dry, the air around me thickened and became hard to take in, making my breath almost shallow.I felt a warm feeling spread across my body, my skin tingling with anticipation as I threw my head back on the wall, resisting the urge to moan.'You can't do this, Scarlett. You can't let him touch you just like that after what he did'I reminded myself, gathering all the courage left in me to push him back roughly.“Don't touch me!” My voice almost betrayed me, but I was glad I could still sound cold. I threw him a glare before walking out of the bathroom, slamming the door behind me.Lucien followed me into the room, grabbing my hand and pulling me back as I crashed against his back, but I yanked his hand off and stepped away from him.“You don't fucking touch me like you own me, Mr. Lucien. Don't cross your boundary,” it's crazy how I wa
