LIAM'S POV
I rested my back against the Porsche while I occasionally glanced through my wristwatch. It's already past 6 P.M. but Emily hasn't come out since I stood outside. It's unlike Emily to get this late at dressing up because she has always been quick. Everything about Emily today has been full of surprises and it makes me wonder if she somehow hit her head against the hard floor during the car accident. I wasn't even sure if this was Emily's way of paying me back after the fruitless marriage of two years we both had or because of the loveless marriage. She even accused me of cheating with her sister which was something I couldn't deny because Aysel has been trying everything possible to make me send me green signals. I will do anything for Emily but not divorce. Divorce is never an option and not having sex with Emily... No, I won't call it sex. Making love to Emily is something I will never get tired of. Sex with Emily has always been amazing and it took me a great effort not to kiss Emily in the room back when she was ogling at my body in the mirror. I pulled my phone into my pocket, waiting. The man who delivered a parcel to Emily already left and it makes me wonder what is taking her so long. The thought of Emily escaping through the window only to run away from me scared the hell out of me. In a twinkle of an eye, I made my way to the door only to stop when the door was suddenly pulled open and a breathtaking Emily came out in a silver dress. I was stunned, speechless and blood seemed to rush to my third leg because I suddenly became hard. “You thought I ran away?" Emily asked as soon as she got to where I was. My eyes seem to remain glued to Emily's body. The silver dress she wore accentuated her hips and curves in the right places. The upper part of the dress was carved in such a way that half of Emily's breasts were bouncing, fighting for dominance to be free from their restraint. I looked at the dress, which stopped at her feet. A black high heels adorned her legs. The dress had a slit which stopped in the middle of her thighs. No! Emily is never the type to wear makeup or dress too revealing like this, so what changed? “You said we are in a hurry. We should go, Liam," Emily said and left,t, only to settle in the front seat. I was lost for words and I was stunned to my bones to see Emily's new side. What happened? What did I miss? I got into the driver's seat and pulled out of the penthouse. Emily pulled out her phone and took some pictures inside the car. Even when I tried to feature inside, Emily pushed the phone away so that the camera wouldn't capture my face. She stopped taking pictures and went to her W******p to check some messages. The nerve of this woman to act as if I wasn't here with her in the car. A notification came from the phone. I pulled out my phone and drove with one hand, only to see that Emily had posted the pictures she had taken on I*******m. But the caption was what caught my attention. **I'M NOT WAITING FOR ANYONE TO COMPLETE ME, I'M ALREADY A WHOLE** ”What?" I scoffed in my mind only to scroll to see the comments. Emily sure has a lot of fans because she is also a comic book writer. The girls were complimenting her beauty and some asked her why she doesn't wear makeup before. I turned off the phone and looked ahead of me. Emily was even giggling beside me as she replied to some people on her W******p. God! I want to take that phone away from her hand and push her to the back seat for hot sex to let her remember who she belongs to. My knuckles were on the verge of turning white because of the way I gripped the steering wheel, but Emily was having a nice time chatting. I drove to the hall at the speed of light and stopped at where the cars were parked. I got out of the car, ready to open the car door for Emily. Meanwhile, Emily had already gotten out of the car, looking ravishing in her silver dress. The sun was already about to set but that didn't hide Emily's beauty. My gaze fell on Emily's back, and it took me a minute to get the fact that I was staring at Emily's bareback. The tattoo in the middle of her back defined her thin back sexually. I am the only one allowed to see that. That stunning beautiful tattoo. I would have thrown Emily a coat just to cover herself but not until I saw my father working towards us. Maybe not us but they just got to the hall like everyone. ”What are you waiting for Liam? We need to get inside and..." “Woah. You look breathtaking in this dress, Emily," I said, cutting Emily off. Emily seemed surprised by my sudden outburst, but I didn't want her to ask me why. I have never complimented Emily's dress, not even on our wedding day. I don't love Emily but her body is not something a mortal man could resist. My father was already getting closer to us, and the paparazzi seemed to have sensed our presence. I need to do what I am best at, which is pretending to be a dotting husband. Emily seemed to be occupied with understanding the situation. Before she could ask me what was wrong, I drawled Emily by her waist only to slam her back against the car door in a twinkle of an eye. ”What are you doin..." Whatever question Emily was going to ask got swallowed when I slam my lips over hers. Her eyes widened in shock as she pressed her two hands against my chest to push me away but I didn't stop. Emily is a wild vixen. She is a seductress. My very own seductress because she is irresistible. I'm sure she is going to slap me, but I'm addicted to Emily's lips, and it scared me. ”Mhm" Emily uttered in between the kiss but that sounded like a pleasant moan in my ears and blood rushed to my dick. I am addicted to her I am under Emily's spell. I am utterly enamored with Emily, and I don't think I can stop, fuck!EMILY'S POV The time seemed to stop the moment Liam crashed his lips over mine. Maybe I was hallucinating but I wasn't sure either if this was an illusion. Though it felt so real. His mint smell enveloped me, throwing me into a whirlwind of emotions while my heart pounded loudly against my ribcage. Goosebumps spread across my exposed skin, and I shivered against his tall frame. His free hand rested on my waist and I felt so small, so powerless and fragile against Liam's chest. Liam would never kiss me. He never did except when we were having sex, but what changed? I shook the stupid thought that filled my head, almost making my head fuzzy away. I pressed my hand on his chest, trying to push him away but Liam didn't bulge. Who am I kidding? Liam has spent most of his leisure time in the gym. There was nothing he was not good at, even the kissing part. My hormones took charge, and I moaned into the kiss like molten magma. The sound that escaped my lips scared me because Liam sudd
EMILY'S POVLiam walked away, leaving me and his father outside. I didn't try to stop him because I knew Liam and his father were like a cat and rat. They aren't on good terms and sometimes, I do blame myself and think maybe it was because his father forced us to be together.I was still angry that Liam kissed me right in front of everyone. I know this was part of the rules in the contract I signed in my past life.We are supposed to act like a real couple whenever we are outside but the moment we stepped into the car or got home, everything changed. I wouldn't hesitate to trample on Liam today, humiliating him was part of my plan of coming here.“Liam is still as cold as ever but I am glad he is warm to you. He can be difficult sometimes, but try to understand him," Liam's father assured me in a warm tone. I wished I could tell him things weren't like what he thought because Liam was in love with my sister, not me. “Thank you, Father. I know you will become close friends at some po
“Woah. I guess everyone could see that. Mrs. Nolan and Aysel are wearing the same dress." The MC spoke into the microphone.I smiled at Aysel who managed to smile back at me. She must be weeping inside now because I remembered how she boasted about how much the dress cost in my past life.She had blabbered that they were just two copies of it and she was probably the first one to get it which was why I begged Chelsea to get the same dress.It was worth the trouble after all, I want to see if her ego has been crushed now. This is just the beginning of Aysel's misery.“This is the definition of a happy family. This is what we call true love between two sisters." The MC continued while the people clapped their hands with a smile on their faces.Aysel walked towards me and pulled me in for a hug. I hugged her back, returning the gesture.“You surprised me, Emily. You should have let me know you will be getting the same dress." Aysel said with gritted teeth. Her voice was barely above a wh
The party was already coming to an end after Laura and my father gave their last speech. The people were already starting to disperse. I took my purse with me and left the hall because of the sudden need to empty my bladder. The space was empty when I got inside. I stepped inside one of the stalls and got my thing done. I was ready to step out of the stall when the door was pushed open, followed by echoing footsteps. “Did you see the way Aysel danced with Liam Nolan? Do you think they have things going on between them?" I pressed my ear against the door frame to listen to their conversation better. “I wouldn't be surprised if the two are dating. Have you forgotten the way Aysel was when she heard about Emily getting married to Liam? She nearly killed herself." My jaw dropped when I heard what the girl said and I shook my head in disbelief. My lips trembled when I listened to more of their conversation. I recognize the voice. It was none other than Aysel's friends. I recognize t
“Liam, stop it. I told you I wanted a divorce," I said but no words came out of my lips. It was all in my head and maybe a part of me wanted this. Maybe a part of me still hopes Liam will eventually come to love me and not my sister but this is just wishful thinking. What kind of temptation is this? “Look at you getting red, Emily. Tell me," Liam said with sarcasm before moving his hand resting down the side of my body. “You want this" He said his hot mint breath fell on my neck. My body flushed as his hand trailed the curve of my body. I almost closed my eyes to enjoy this beautiful feeling and also let it take over my entire being as desires pulsated through me. Liam took a few steps back and pinched the middle of his eyebrows, leaving me all alone and I felt alone. ”What is the meaning of what you just did, Liam?" I asked after taking a deep breath. My face is still as red as a tomato because I suddenly feel hot from inside. He already riled me up without touching
Liam burst into a fit of laughter the moment I uttered those words. I frowned, not knowing what prompted the reaction.”If you are going to keep on weighing your options because of that claim of yours about Aysel, I would love to see your proof, Emily." Liam said, straightening his back.“You can as well answer my question. Just a yes or no would do, Mr. Nolan," I replied before taking my purse from the floor while a part of me waited for the devil's reply.“Will my answer satisfy you, Emily? I doubted that, but don't take my words lightly. I meant everything I said," Liam said before storming out of the room while my eyes trailed over him until the door was shut.The moment Liam left, I slumped to the floor while my hand didn't stop shaking. There is one more thing I forgot to remember about Liam.He is the type to never go back on his words and I mean it. Liam is going to divorce me like I said but that doesn't mean he will let me be like that without trying to get connected to me p
I stormed into my room, closing the door behind me with a loud thud. Liam and I didn't talk throughout the drive and he didn't try to engage in any conversation with me. He was as silent as ever.I took off my heels and undressed before walking naked into the bathroom. The white bulb made the room look even brighter, but strangely, his scent still lingered in the room.The bathtub was filled with warm water and the steam rose slowly from it. I got into the bathtub, letting my racing nerves relax with the calm water.After washing myself up inside the bathtub, I wrapped the towel around my body.“You think I can't get him, huh? Just watch me, Emily. Don't come begging me when he is finally with me," Aysel's words replayed in my mind.Those were her last words before I left the hall. It might have looked as if she was bluffing, but Aysel is never the type to let her guard down, and she meant every word.I looked at my stomach, which still appeared flat. There is still some time for me t
The maids came in before I could finish bathing and my clothes were already laid down for me on the bed. “Good morning, ma'am." The two girls chorused with their heads bowed.I still remember their name from my past life. The short girl is Annie while the tall, brunette girl is Bentley.“Morning Bentley," I said with a beautiful smile on my lips. I sat down in front of the dressing mirror while they walked towards me to help with dressing up.As usual, they got me the kind of dress I usually wore. A long dress that reaches my legs and its flair, not showing any of my curves. They combed my hair and made it curly at the end. When they were done, I wore the dress and twirled around. I can't believe I loved wearing this back then.“Ma'am, do you want us to apply the makeup?" It was Bentley who asked me and I could see the look of confusion and surprise in their eyes. There were surprised to see makeup kit in the room which I got last night from Chelsea.“Yes, I will be using it," I sa
LIAM'S POV I knew this was going to happen the moment I saw her all acting caring with that short dress she wore. Her innocent eyes were all my beast side needed to see to go berserk. And here I am, not able to hold back, claiming her lips even though Emily was actually protesting.Eventually, she had to cave in because I wasn't letting go. My hand pulled her waist closer and despite the pain I felt in my arm, I didn't let Emily go. She is so small against my tall body that was what actually made this sensual. The fact that she is made perfectly for me actually made me full and my tongue actually delivered the message I have for her.Emily moaned into the kiss and it took everything in me not to pin her to the bed. It was more of self-restraint before I could let go."I love you" I murmured against Emily's lips while her pupils dilated as she looked at me.I actually have a lot to say right now because I am the one who is stopping the detective from charging Aysel for instigated rap
EMILY'S POV"Mummy, are we going to keep living here? I like Uncle Liam and I like playing with him," Xavier said and there was no way I couldn't just shut him up when he already said everything."We will talk later honey. Just go and play for now and when I am back, I will let you know." I said but he refused to leave."I will get you your favourite ice cream," I said and he smiled at me, showing his perfect teeth and dimples, just like Liam. They actually looked alike."Come with me," I said, avoiding Liam's eyes as I made my way upstairs. It seems he wasn't following me at first but then I heard his echoing footsteps behind me. I pulled the door to his room open and let him in."I don't want to do this too" I began to pace around the room as if I was actually restless.Hell, yes, because I am fucking restless right now.How would I tell him I need him to undress?"What is it?" Liam asked and stopped my Pacing. I faced him, mouth open but no words came out."I..." I said but the w
EMILY'S POVXavier was busy playing around the house with some of the maids after coming from school when I heard the sound of the car honking. Liam is back from work.The guards pulled the door open for him and he drove in while I watched him from the balcony. He stepped out while Thierry walked out of the mansion to take the suitcase from him."Welcome, boss," I heard him say and Liam's eyes were focused on me. I took out my ear pods and put them inside my ear.I wasn't even listening to any song but I was clueless about how to react right now. What if he just walked in without coming to my side.Maybe all the kisses and hugs he gave me last night were just lies. Or am I the one putting too much effort into it?I looked at the sunset, but then I felt a shadow behind me, and my back stiffened. I didn't have to look at the person to know it was Liam. He is the only one who has the right to intrude on my privacy this way."Hello," I heard him say but I acted as if I didn't hear him. H
AYSEL POV"We had some drinks and I left her place. I didn't wait that long, so what's wrong she hasn't received a call from me." I explained as if I was actually innocent right now.I really have to do this to qualify as not guilty."Is that all you did there before you left?" The Detective asked and I answered Yes."Can we have your phone?" He asked and I am glad to know I acted fast.It was actually the best plan to destroy the phone and all the evidence left in it."I would have dropped it when I got to the station today but it actually fell from the stairs and it broke. I can't seem to repair it" I said in a pity tone. If I lied that I lost it yesterday, the detective will eventually detect that I was lying because my phone was working this morning and with my location being gotten this morning, they will realize something is fishy."Okay. We will try to recover the information from the phone because it will contribute to our investigation." The detective said and all I could do
AYSEL POVAfter escaping the car that tailed me last night, I had to sleep in the hotel room before coming to Father's place today because I needed to run away."Miss Aysel. Good morning." The maid said when she saw me coming in."Hi. I'm fine. I heard dad and mum are not at home?" I asked her for confirmation and she answered Yes."They aren't at home ma'am. They actually went to their workplace this morning." The maid replied and I nodded my head."I need to take something home. You can actually leave," I said and she bowed her head before leaving.I ran up the stairs as if I was being chased by a mad dog. Report came to me that Emily is still breathing well because she escaped and that has left me puzzled.Liam was even the one who got her escape. Now, I don't want to think about it. I just want to escape.My phone rang on the bed but I couldn't dare pick it up. I ran towards where the wardrobe was and pulled out my suitcase hastily before packing my clothes inside the bag.I thoug
EMILY'S POVI sat in the sitting room and dialed Chelsea's number on the new phone Liam gave me. My plan is to fill her in on what had happened."Hello Chelsea. How are you doing?" I asked her over the phone and she quickly answered."I am fine, baby. That place is actually quiet. Where are you?" She asked and I rolled my eyes."I actually have a terrible news and please don't be surprised too much." I said and Chelsea agree to be quiet about this."I almost got raped yesterday" I said and a gasp escaped Chelsea lips in shock I couldn't blame her though.I try to narrate everything to her and She listened attentively. When I told her Liam came to my rescue, she almost cried on the phone."Emily, I'm coming to see you," she said, her voice filled with concern. "I need to make sure you're okay."I smiled, grateful for her friendship. "Thanks, Chelsea. I'll be fine." I said and dropped the call. The maid served me some food which I ate carefully in order not to have indigestion.Liam ha
EMILY'S POV"What would you like to eat?" Liam asked but I wasn't in the mood to eat because I have no appetite right now."I don't want anything but Xavier might wake up in the middle of the night. He hasn't eaten tonight." I replied and Liam answered okay. He packed the car in a nearby restaurant and got down.He got the food and came back. "Wondering why I didn't lock the door," he asked, and I shook my head. There was no point in running when I knew he would eventually catch me. It was good staying put this way."I am not a little bit curious," I said and looked outside the city. I don't know how Liam felt knowing fully well that Aysel set me up.I arrived at Liam's place, feeling a mix of emotions. I came here not long ago and yet, I came here again. This time, it was willingly because he didn't force me.He led me upstairs and I realised the maid was already asleep. I was still getting used to being around him again. As we ascended the stairs and got to the hallway, Liam turned
EMILY'S POVI stood at the edge of the cliff, my eyes fixed on the spot where Liam had fallen. I blinked my eyes severally, trying to see if I was hallucinating but there was nothing in front of him.I pinched my skin and squeezed my face shut. I felt the pain and that was when realization dawned on me.Tears streamed down my face as I cried out in despair. I had lost him and the thought was unbearable.I can't even think about it because I could feel some hammering against the wall of my chest. It felt as if my heart was being ripped open and a painful cry escaped my lips."Liam!" I cried into space but there was nothing. "Liam, please!" I yelled and swallowed back as I sat on my knees."I love you, Liam," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "Why did you have to leave me?""I am sorry, please. Because I can't live without you. I should have known you were not joking but why did you bring me here of all places." I said and tried to see if he was just among them.He can't die becaus
EMILY'S POV"Mummy. Who are you talking to?" Xavier asked as he came to stand by my side. I couldn't stop him and Liam and had already seen him.I carried him into my arms. "Mummy is having a conversation with someone, huh?" I said but Xavier's eyes shone with recognition when he saw Liam. "Uncle Liam" he screamed in his small voice and struggled to get down. My heart seemed to stop beating when Xavier ran to his arms and he carried him up."How are you doing Xavier?" Liam asked and I had to use the couch as balance in order not to fall.Realization dawned on me. They know each other and it is not something I can imagine."Are you okay?" Liam asked, holding my hand but I shoved his hand away."Mummy. This is my friend" Xavier said and continued. "He gets me ice cream every day"I actually connected and I realised Xavier had been telling me these for the past month. I thought it was Vincent but I don't recall asking Vincent if he is the one.They knew each other.Liam knew I had a c
