His lips, they tasted just like last time, it was everything I hoped for, only that this time it was short lived.It took a couple of seconds for the it whole fog to clear off from my eyes and he was still staring at me."You're so beautiful", he mumbled. For a second there I actually thought he meant it honestly but then I remembered that we're on a fake fiancee mission right now and this was all an act."You two should just get a room", Owen joked breaking me off that magical ride I was on seconds ago.The table was filled with giggles and laughter, both fake and real, all except from Laura, she was filled with rage."I want to see you start an actual family together before I die", his father said."Dad, you have nothing to worry about, this family is standing tall and strong", he said holding my hands.He shrugged, "Very well then, I'll ease you two off from the marriage talk for a while until you're ready", he said.I sighed relieved.Ben appeared behind Luther and whispered somet
LUTHER...**I crawled up my stairs, tired. What a crazy ass night. I just want to go to bed and sleep. I got into my room and threw my bloody clothes off my body. I checked through my phone and saw a text from Ben concerning something with Ivy. I texted my dad and wished him a happy birthday again but he was probably asleep.it was 3am.I suddenly didn't feel like sleeping anymore and decided to hit the roof top.I took my headphones with me and got a creete of beer and got there, it was quiet and cold, just like I liked it.I headed straight to the Jacuzzi and sank my body deep into it.The only thing that kept on ringing in my head were screams. That's what happens whenever I go under water.I hear the screams and cries of people I've hurt, intentionally or unintentionally, both the innocent and the guilty.Sometimes I try to run away from them, but of recent I've been embracing my demons.I got out of it when I felt like it was drowning me.It's the perfect time to face my demo
IVY * * I haven't left my room all day because of last night, I don't know if what happened was based on a drunk impulse or under his control but it was something. It felt real, too real like every word he said he actually meant it. I mean I thought the whole pretense was supposed to be when we're in public, but what he said really got me. After my antenatal check up and when Dr. Lizzy left I had to leave the room. I tiptoed downstairs and met the living room filled with Men. Maybe I should have just stayed in my room. "Hi Ivy", Owen had to make it loud and clear that I was there. Everyone's eyes went to me. Holy shit, my feet are cold. "That's Dangers fiancee right?", One of them asked. "Laura said Baby mama", another said. "Yes, His fiancee", Owen said heading to the stairs and held my hands and got me down. "Small friends gathering, you'll get used to it", he said. I nodded, I hope not. I felt Luther's arms around my waist from behind. "Well Hello you", he said.
LAURA **I can't lie, I've not been myself these couple of months and I can't lie about it.My life was going so perfectly well, too perfectly well, I had everything in control and everything going exactly as planned until Ivy showed up.Luther's father was dying soon, he needed a family to take over, I was the closest woman Luther had in his life, I was supposed to be the new Mrs Cowper but now everything is going south.The truth is, I knew that Luther will never love me, not even in his next life and he will never feel what I feel for him but I was willing to try, willing to hope that things will change and whether or whether not it works out, I was still going to be with him, forever.Now will you believe the pleasant surprise I get when I hear that a woman showed up for hell and is trying to tie him down with a pregnancy.And what pains me the most is how he's so willing to keep her and to make her stay, how he's so protective of her and how he treats her like a jewel, somethi
IVY*I just knew it wasn't gonna last, Luther was back to avoiding me again and acting like I didn't exist. I was getting used to how everything was going until when he started acting different and it felt so nice, but then it was all the alcohol.I had started a new hobby of recent. Before I started working, I use to love making designs for dresses. I would make the prettiest that you could ever imagine, but I never got the privilege to show case them to the world, and that wasn't going to pay my bills so I had to focus on work.Now I'm being a pregnant house woman I find myself day in day out making designs for dresses.Luther barged into my room unexpected."We have a dinner date in an hour, picked out a dress already for you, matches with mine, be down on time", he said casually and handed me the dress.I nodded, "Oh thank you", I said.He left immediately after.I can't even lie when I say I miss drunk him. Wish I could be drugging him more often.I picked up the dress and stare
"Hmm?", was the only thing that came out my throat. He then pulled away and gave me a short smile, "Extra 20 minutes go change the dress, big mistake", he said casually. I nodded, Yup very inappropriate, I agree. I rushed upstairs and shut my room door behind me. Now I'm a 100% sure that he's not drunk and this isn't public so what was that?!!! I exhaled and got into my closet and quickly changed into another black dress, this one was silky, long and had a slit at the side... just one. Then I got back downstairs and he was waiting for me. He didn't say a word, he just started walking outside. We headed towards the Limo and surprisingly he chose to be a gentle man and opened the door for me. I got in and so did he, the driver took off immediately. The ride was as usual, no word said till we got to the destination. I'm beginning to think I've been having illusions of how he's been acting of recent if we're being honest. We arrived the hotel and he got out of the car and helped
Martins was nice, funny and very mature. He's from a royal bloodline, but not his sister, she's more like his step sister.I asked him about his partner since it was a couples dinner and he told me that he didn't need a date because they were the hosts. His sight and him.She creates the event every year so she can meet a new rich man to steal. So he knew everything about this event and what goes on.For the moment I tried to enjoy myself, I hadn't spoken to anyone that wasn't involved in the Cowper family for months.Talking to someone about something that didn't involve Luther was refreshing."I really don't understand what your fiance would want in my sister that you do not have", he said."You're really beautiful, extremely stunning, very elegant ", he said.I smiled, broadly, when last did I hear that? someone compliment me? genuinely? been long."Thank you ", I said smiling."What is going on here?".It was Luther, he was standing at the door of the balcony with Ben.When did Be
I've been indoors lately, and this time it's because I want to be indoors. I only interact with my doctor and then Mrs Smith most times when she serves me food.I've dedicated my life to making designs for dresses, I've made lots of them and I plan of selling them online to at least get money of my own, just incase this whole thing with Luther goes wrong.We haven't seen each other for two weeks now, after what went down the other night. I hear his voice outside, I see him in the garden most times, but we haven't seen each other, and this time around I'm the one avoiding him.I just want to be alone for now, maybe if things could go any faster I would be out of here in no time.I'm more like a prisoner now and I'm trapped everyday in my thoughts. I don't know what to do anymore, and I don't know who to talk to about everything.I've thought about calling Martins, but I don't trust him enough to tell him everything that's going on, one little mistake and everything goes wrong? I'll be
