  • Claimed by the billionaire at the altar   91

    I had a huge smile on my face. Zac reluctantly kissed me goodbye. I had a feeling that it wasn’t going to happen again but I was happy, no regrets at all. When his head was clear, he’d tell him how it was just a brief moment between us and I should get over it but a part of me felt like he was being real.I felt like he wanted me just like the way I wanted him but he wasn’t going to admit it. Who knows? Maybe it’s the same thing he did to other women. He was so skillful and I had almost finished just from him touching and kissing me. If we hadn’t stopped, I would have. I didn’t like the thought of him with other women, it made me sick.Mr Vincent’s words still lingered in my mind. Were Zac and I really on the path to destruction? It was obvious we couldn’t keep our hands and eyes off each other. Even now, I wondered what he was doing, if he was okay and if he was thinking about me too. It was hard to believe that Zac threw a fit because of me. I mean, he didn’t even like me like

    “You’re going back to him?”I adjusted my shirt and smoothed out the flyaways in my hair. My lips were swollen and they tingled from how much we kissed. I was out of breath and I wanted more but I had to get myself together. Too much of Zac wasn’t good. Right now, being with him felt like the best thing ever but it was only a temporary high. In no time, I’d be reminded why I shouldn’t be messing with him. “Zac, you should focus on resting and taking care of yourself,” I said to him, avoiding his eyes. “Tell me he makes you feel the way I do,” he said hoarsely I searched for my car keys with my eyes, I didn’t know where I dropped them. My phone, the house keys? This man had me disoriented. “Zac, we can’t be talking about this,” I whispered and looked around even though I knew no one had heard us. “Why can’t we?” He raised a brow. “I barely touch you and you’re already breathing so hard. You want me so bad, Jane,”I took a step away from him. If I was close to him, I fear we

    “Jane,” he called after me. “Come back here, I’m not letting you drive in this condition.”I clicked my tongue. What was wrong with him? One minute, he cared so much, the next he was acting like I was the worst person in his life.We had said so many vile things to each other, it was best if we went separate ways. “Let Mr Vincent take you home if you must leave,” he said, staggering towards me.For the first time, I noticed his limp, he had hurt his knee too. Whatever caused his outrage must be definitely important to him. “If I must leave?” I scoffed. “You just asked me to leave your house and now you act like you care? Have you lost your mind, Zachary? Why are you so hot and cold? Pick a side!” He staggered again. I was worried he was going to lose balance. “Come in please,” he pleaded, his voice weak. “I’ll never forgive myself if something bad happens to you.”He staggered again but I caught him. “Zac, what have you done?” I asked in despair I helped him into the h

    I drove as fast as I could. I was scared. Mr Vincent won’t answer my calls, Zac didn’t either. The house was dangerously silent when I walked in. No chef or housekeeper in sight. “Zac!” I yelled.He wasn’t in his study. I ran to the kitchen, he wasn’t there. “Mr Vincent!” No answer.I couldn’t do this. What if Mr Burke had gotten to him and I was too late? What if something bad had happened to him? I tried to regulate my breathing but I couldn’t. The thought of losing Zac or not being there for him made me sick. He wasn’t perfect but Zac was there for me even in ways I didn’t know. If he hadn’t paid my tuition through the foundation, I would have dropped out. If he hadn’t cleared my hospital bills, I might not be alive today. He stayed with me in the hospital even when he was injured. Zac was always there! “Zac, where are you?” I screamed at the top of my lungs.I listened quietly, there was a little noise coming from the gym. The fear of finding him on the floor bleeding a

    I woke up in a bed different from what I was used to. It took me a minute to register that I was in Nate’s house. I slipped on his shirt and went to the kitchen. He was preparing breakfast just like Zac did. It was nice to see him try to do something nice for me even with an injured arm. “Hey sleepyhead,” he smiled as he placed a kiss on my forehead.Something Zac would never do. He wasn’t affectionate. “I’ve whipped up breakfast. Pancakes, eggs, orange juice and some oats. I’m trying to treat my favorite girl special,”I smiled and placed a kiss on his lips. Life could be this simple. We sat at the table in the kitchen as we usually did for breakfast. “I’m thinking of moving into a bigger home,” he saidI nodded, taking a bite of my pancakes. They were nothing like Zac’s sandwiches but I appreciated them. They tasted familiar, like home. This was were I was meant to be. “When we get married, we need a bigger space for the children and with everything that has happened betw

His sad eyes wouldn’t stop hunting me. What had I done? I didn’t want to text Mrs Gonzales yet to ask about him, it just seemed too dramatic and for someone who was trying to detach from Zac, maybe it was best to leave his mother. I texted Mr Vincent. “You’ve been on your phone all day. Is something wrong?” Nate asked with a raised browI shook my head and smiled at him. I barely touched my food.I picked up my fork and began eating. “I’m just busy with work,” I lied. “Speaking of that, how’s it going?” He asked, pouring
