DINNER
Katie's Pov
A gentle tap, and the soft voice of Jane penetrated my sleep. I sat up, rubbing my eyes. Took me a while to realise I was not in my room,"I apologise for waking you up mistress", she bowed, I nodded,"The master wants you to get ready for dinner with his mom by 7pm, she flies in today", my eyes widened,"Where is he?", I looked around, realising he was not in the bed,"To pick her up. They have a few runnings around town to attend to", I nodded,"Thank you Jane ", I went back under the covers,"Would you want your breakfast upstairs?","Yes please", I replied from under the covers,I sat up, looking to his side of his bed, wondering why he did not touch me at all through the entire night. He even let me sleep in.Shit! His mom is coming in, my mother-in-law, that sent shivers down my spine. I never had the chance to speak with her, before, nor during the wedding. I was not allowed toRelated chapters
Contractually Yours SHE'S BEAUTIFUL
Katie's Pov The driver called Josiah when we arrived at the restaurant for dinner. I caught sight of him at the door. The driver came around, holding the door open for me. He stood motionless as I walked in his direction, like he bad seen a ghost, almost made me laugh. I put on a smile to hide my urge to laugh,"Took you long enough", of course, what was I even expecting, "I'm sorry", I dropped my head,He took my arm in his, leading me into the restaurant. From the corner of my eyes, I could see heads turn, I glanced at him, he had so much pride in his eyes, I smiled to myself.He held out a chair for me when we got to our table. His mother looked so beautiful, and she was smiling at me,"I had no idea you were this beautiful", she smiled so warmly at me, "Thank you ma'am", I tried to hide my blush, "It's so nice to finally meet you one on one", she seemed nicer than the stories I had heard,"The feelin
Contractually Yours GOLF
Katie's Pov The chipping sound of birds woke made me open my eyes, stretching every inch of my body on the bed. Took me a while to notice I was not in my room..again. I looked down, confused as to how I had night clothes on. I did not recall changing last night. My eyes widened, did he change me?, I thought. He had every right to anyway, we were married afterall. I stretched again on getting down from the bed, the events of last night slowly began to return to my memory. After dinner, we got in the car, I remember falling asleep almost immediately. If I don't remember walking upstairs, then it means I didn't walk upstairs. I placed both hands on my cheeks, 'he carried me ', that was the only option. I found myself smiling at the thought of it as I tried to create a mental picture in my head. Why was I even smiling?, he's still a selfish, rude, jerk. There was a knock on the door, had to be one of the cleaning staffs. The door opened to confirm my suspicion.
Contractually Yours REWARD
Katie's Pov I was on the TV when I heard Josiah's car pull up at the front door. I struggled between standing up to Welcome him and sitting right at the TV, I choose the latter. He walked into the where I was, which was unusual because he usually just liked to walk straight to his room,"I got something for you", he said as he got closer,Turning his head towards the front door, I followed his gaze and cast my gaze on the most beautiful puppy I had ever seen. My eyes lit up immediately as I returned my eyes to meet his, 'It's yours", he replied like he had read my mind,I threw myself on him, screaming like a school girl who was just asked to the prom. Luckily, he caught me. The puppy was brought closer to me when I had let him go, it was as excited as I was, wagging it's little tail back and forth, travelling its tongue all over me. "It's a girl, I'm getting a dog trainer for it so it shows you how to take care of it and
Contractually Yours FIRST KISS
Josiah's Pov Got the number of a well spoken of dog trainer from the pet store, after giving him a call, he showed up a few hours later to lecture Katie and Jane on what to do in terms of grooming, feeding and just general well being of it. I wanted no part of it, so I remained upstairs. I was on my laptop when I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. The footsteps stopped but I heard no door open or close. I got up, placing my ears closer to my door, listened for anything my ears could pick, and like I knew, I heard heavy breathing. .Katie. I wondered whether to let her be, before I could think, my hands took matters into its own hands, swinging the door open to reveal her fist up, ready to knock.We stood there, her fist dropped, unmoving, making eye contact, "Would you want to come in or you'd just stand outside?", she looked down, not saying a word,I moved to the side, giving her way to come in, shutting the door lightly. I walked back
Contractually Yours JEALOUS?
Katie's Pov The sun from a small opening in the drapes came onto my face, it made me open my eyes, slowly scratching them as I turned to the other side, trying to continue with my sleep. After trying a couple of times, it was obvious I wouldn't go back to sleep. I sat up, and realised I was not in my room. I glanced over at my side and saw this man still sleeping soundly. It was a Sunday, he had every right. He had his back against the windows, making sense as to why he did not wake up. Getting up from the bed slowly, careful not to wake him up, I walked over to the drapes, pulling then together, shutting out the light that came in, so it does not wake him up. I walked back to bed, quietly climbing back in, getting under the covers. He moved, making me stop in my tracks, until I had made sure he was still fully asleep, before I adjusted myself properly. I laid on my back, thinking of what I was gonna do today. I picked up my phone, my eyes glanced
Contractually Yours WHAT HAD I DONE?
Katie's Pov I played with Ava all day long, with the hopes of forgetting that I was not okay with the fact that my husband was having an 'almost work' lunch with another woman. The daughter of another company. She was definitely more prettier, and more eloquent cos she must have gone to one of the best schools in the country, or even abroad. I ran my fingers through Ava's fur, she had been on my lap, watching TV with me. I was not actually fully concentrating on what was on, I had been taking glances at the parking lot through the window, hoping I would get a sight of his car driving in. That did not happen. I gave up on waiting, already filled with anger as to why he had been taking so long. Handing Ava to Jane, I walked up to my room to take an afternoon nap, hoping that he would be home by the time I wake up.My eyes opened two hours later, wondering how I was able to sleep that long, I was happy I did, I woke up, eraded of the anger I had gone to bed with
Contractually Yours I'M SORRY
Katie's Pov I had gone to my room to have dinner, seeing that he was not going to come downstairs. Handing Ava over to Jane for her feeding and evening bathe, one of the kitchen staffs accompanied me to my room, holding my dinner for me. I had just sat down to begun eating when there was a knock on my door. Getting up from the bed, I walked to the door, getting a not so pleasant surprise when I swung open the door.A kitchen staff was at the door, and behind her was none other than my beloved husband, "You can leave", he looked down at her, she bowed in response before she left,"Did Jane deliver my instruction to you?", he looked squarely at me, not that it was going to make a difference in my answer, "She did", I made sure to sound as plain, you may say rude, as possible,"And?", he was expecting me to explain why I did not show up? Very funny,"And what?", playing dumb definitely got him pissed off, and I want
Contractually Yours PAY DAY
Josiah's Pov My alarm clock noisily rang beside me. I woke up, thinking of smashing it to the ground. Turning to my side, I nicely turned it off instead, rolling back to my side to fully wake up. That was when I realised that she was soundly asleep next to me, I almost smiled, it was soothing to know she had returned to the room. As stealth as possible, I got up, to prepare for the office. It was Monday. Walking into the washroom to wash up, I heard my phone ring this time. Walking back to the bed as fast as I could so she would not have to wake up, I turned off the alarm. There was a pop-up notification on the screen, looking at it, I realised the month had ended. It was her pay-day.I stood in the spot I was, starring at my phone. I almost forgot we were in a contract, and it had been a month already. A month out of the 24 months as estranged in the contract that we both signed. I walked into the bathroom to resume my shower, I had a long day ahea
