JENSYN

“Open up for me, Jensyn.”

I did. His mouth crushed mine before I could reply.

He was rough. His fingers splayed across my throat, tight enough to make me feel his need. His body caged mine, making me feel like a helpless chicken. And God help me, I let him own me. I arched into him, hands tangling in the roughness of his hair, dragging him closer like he was the answer to a question I hadn’t dared ask.

“Linden.” I moaned, my throat hoarse from the kisses he planted on my neck.

He groaned low in his throat. It vibrated against my skin as he trailed those killer kisses from my lips to my cheekbones, my jaw, my ear, my nose.

“Linden—” I breathed, but it came out more like a plea. Yes, I wanted him, I wouldn't lie.

He pulled back just far enough to take me in, his eyes wild, mouth parted. He looked vulnerable at that point. He was a man coming undone, weak, and fragile.

“You drive me insane, Jensyn,” he muttered, voice low. “You… you tear things open and I hate you for that.”

  • A Marriage Deal To Remember    Ch. 73 - SHE IS NOT YOUR DAUGHTER

    LINDENIt's been four hours. Four hours since Willow saw Jensyn last. Every minute that passed seemed to me like it crawled. I stood just outside the gilded doors of the event hall, hands on my head. The cold air brushed gently against my tailored jacket but nothing could soothe the restlessness that clawed at my insides. Willow stood beside me, arms wrapped around herself. Lev and Derek also stood at one side, speaking to the officers who'd already searched the restrooms, exit, cameras for anything to show that Jensyn was taken.But there was nothing, not even a damn lipstick smudge on the wall.My hands aggressively drove into my trouser pockets to keep them from shaking. I couldn't let anyone notice how tense this made me. I couldn't let the press catch wind of this. But damn! My jaw ached from clenching them so hard.“Willow, are you sure she went to the restroom?” I asked Willow for the nth time, eyes sweeping the sidewalk again. She nodded without looking at me. “She told me

  • A Marriage Deal To Remember    Ch. 72 - TALKING WITH THE DEMON

    JENSYNThe darkness consumed me and pressed against my eyelids. I blinked once to get accustomed to my surroundings. I couldn't even see myself. I should have been in this room for hours. Who would notice my absence?Willow. And then Linden.Where would they start looking for me?A low whirl cut through the silence (I just noticed it). It was a fan. The coldness penetrated into my body and I shivered. I wanted to cover myself up with my arms then I realised I couldn't move it. My ankles refused to separate, something tugged across my wrists. A burn came when I tried to release myself but couldn't. I felt whatever restrained me with my fingers and it dawned on me.I had been tied down.My throat itched to release a scream but it never left my lips—my lips wouldn't even part. My throat was thick and dry. There was some soft piece of cloth in my mouth. Panic rushed through me and I screamed in silence.I twisted and wriggled but nothing bulged. The chair I sat on cracked with every mo

    JENSYNThe chandelier shone like fireworks above our heads, scattering tiny flecks of light here and there around the marble floor of the hall. The heels I wore echoed softly with the jazz bumming around. I stayed close to my husband's side, my arms were curled around his own making us look like the ideal couple in love.I knew how to play my cards well. Being with Linden like this made me move with power and a feeling that I was untouchable.I wore red, of course.And when I say that, I don't mean rose red or cherry red. I mean deeper read, bloody read, crimson red, dark red that looked like secrets never to be told had been stitched into me. The dress clung to me like it was born with me. It stopped mid-thigh with a slit that kissed my thigh. I had no necklace on (that wasn't needed at all). This dress didn't need one.After a while of showcasing myself with Linden, I found Willow (yes, I was more natural with her) because she was the first person I knew I had to find. She wore a pa

  • A Marriage Deal To Remember    Ch. 70 - BRINGING IN AN OUTSIDER

    JENSYNWillow's laughter rang across the room in that soft and slow manner. It was the type of laugh that came from a place of genuine joy. It struck me that my presence meant a lot to her and I was glad I could give her my time. “I swear,” Willow was saying, rubbing the side of her belly. “If one more person gifts me a yellow onesie, I might scream, because what's all this? They are breaking my heart.”I picked one of the yellow pin-down tops and held it up. It was a beautiful thing to own and I immediately wanted to keep one of them for my baby in future. “Yellow is a neutral colour, Willow,” I said and went on. “Since no one knows the gender of the baby, I think it's only natural that they give you this colour for now.”Her eyes flickered down to her bump. “But I don't like it, I want special things for my baby. Fuck, it's my first!”“If you want something special, we'd have to do the shopping ourselves,” I went on, nudging her with my elbow. “I used to work at this boutique stor

    JENSYNLev called me out again for coffee and I accepted. I had wanted to reach out to him since I found that shawl in Linden's library. It had been yesterday since the initials C.W stuck to my head. I needed to ask someone about the shawl. And Lev… he might just know. We were seated on the outdoor terrace of the café he first invited me to. He was flipping through the menu like he didn't already know what they offered, sunglasses perched on his nose. Ask him, Jensyn. That silly voice screamed at me.I clasped my fingers together and leaned into the table. “Lev?”He didn’t look up. “Mm?”“Does the name—or rather, the initials C.W mean anything to you?”His brows furrowed and he dropped the menu. “C.W?’“Yeah, C. W. I happened to find the initials engraved on a baby shawl I found in Linden's library.”His pause lingered too long to be casual. He waited for a beat before he spoke again, carefully. “What were you doing in his library?”“I was cleaning,” I said quickly like he'd accused

    JENSYNI turned off the cooker and checked on the toast in the machine. It was slightly burnt at the edges, just the way I knew Linden liked it. I placed it gently on the plates beside the eggs Andrea fried. Linden wouldn't eat much in the morning, but I still woke up at 6am to prepare his breakfast and lunch. He took toast every morning, two running eggs with a bit of salt and black pepper, bacon and hot coffee with milk.Simple meal for a husband.I had started preparing his breakfast about a week ago. The maids were not allowed to do it. They would only help with lunch and dinner, not breakfast.The coffee mug was in my hands when footsteps bounced into the kitchen. Andrea left the kitchen about three minutes ago and she said she wouldn't be back until she was done bathing. I pivoted and saw Linden walking into the kitchen, phone tucked between his shoulder and ear, his hand adjusting his cufflinks on his shirt neck.“Good morning, Jensyn.” He muttered between a short breath and a
