Manu’s POVI had just finished attending to a customer when I glanced at the corner of the store near the window display and saw Samantha's hottie eyeing her from the store across the way. That man was very interested! I'd been entertained all week by the stories Sam told me, the notes he'd sent. I even knew his nephew already, and the kid was really cool.But I was definitely going to take this chance to mess with him. Besides, the guy was a total catch and Sam deserved a handsome, decent guy, but she was scared after that idiot Romulus. I was going to give her a little push.I quickly sent Sam a message letting her know he was there, telling her not to give herself away. Then I walked up to him with my best helpful saleswoman pose."Looking for something special, sir?"He looked at me confused and ready to brush me off. But he seemed to think about the situation and came up with the excuse that he wanted to buy a present for his sister. Ha! I wasn't going to miss out on a good sale a
Samantha’s POVThe week was going great, I had already made excellent sales. Manu had left her store, telling me she'd made a great sale to Henry and he ended up hiring her, which made her very happy. I was happy for her, but now I'd lost my companion.However, Henry was spending a lot of time here at the mall. He showed up every day during my break and took me out for coffee. He kept begging for my phone number, and I was having fun with it, especially since even his nephew had my number but he didn't.On Wednesday, Enzo asked me to lunch, wanting to introduce me to his girlfriend, a sweet and super talkative girl. After lunch, when we stopped at the store entrance, he said,"Auntie, you're gorgeous!" He was as charming as his uncle. "I can't come to the mall next week, it's exam week and my mom would kill me.""Okay, sweetheart. But why are you telling me this?" We were getting along really well."Because I want to ask you something.""I'm listening.""Please, give your number to my
Samantha’s POVI stood frozen. I couldn't take my eyes off his hand as it stroked his hardened member. I was drooling with desire to feel him in my mouth. He let out a loud laugh and called out to me again."If you keep looking at me like that, I'm coming over to your place right now," Henry teased threateningly. "Come on. Move it, woman, I want to see all of that little pajama set of yours."I stood up and positioned myself in front of the camera, slowly turning around."Samantha, you're a goddess!" Henry exclaimed, grabbing his phone. "Now, will you take off that naughty pajama set for me? Please, let me see you.""And why would I do that?" I teased."Because I'm sure you want to show off for me. Because I'm certain you're turned on too. And because I know you want to drive me even crazier about you.""You seem to be sure about a lot of things.""And I'm usually always right. Are you going to deny it?"I decided to be bold since I was attracted to him anyway. It was just a matter of
Henry's POVAfter persistently asking Samantha all week, we finally had lunch together on Thursday, and she gave me her number! I was euphoric, but Melissa wasn't helpful and scheduled a meeting right during my usual coffee time with Samantha.I promised to video call her that night. When I got home, I was eager to see her. I took a shower and put on just my boxers, wanting to tease her a bit. But she was the one who teased me with that excuse for pajamas. It wasn't even lingerie, just a tiny piece of transparent fabric on that voluptuous body.When I saw her wearing that, I couldn't resist - I wanted her more than anything. If she was going to tease me, she'd have to handle the consequences. But she surprised me again. Samantha was a beautiful woman, seductive, responsive, passionate, and ardent. She was stunning! I've never been so turned on watching a woman naked through a camera. It was the best virtual sex of my life, even better than many in-person encounters I had, and I was des
Samantha's POVI rushed into my house to avoid giving Henry any chance to convince me to go to his place. I was burning with desire for him, completely turned on. He wasn't just handsome - he was charming, smelled amazing, fun, and incredibly sexy. But as much as I wanted to spend the night with him, I couldn't. My boss had changed my Sunday shift, and I needed to wake up early.I went straight to take a shower; I needed to calm this fire consuming me. I lay in my bed when my phone vibrated on the nightstand - a message had arrived. I looked, and it was from Henry.Henry: "Your scent is divine, even better than I imagined."I was grinning like an idiot at my phone screen. Since I couldn't sleep anyway, I decided to tease him a little more, so I played dumb and we started chatting.Samantha: "What are you talking about?"Henry: "About the little gift you gave me."Samantha: "Which would be?"Henry: "That little piece you left on my lap today before getting out of my car."Samantha: "Oh,
Henry's POVI met the guys at the Social Club's restaurant. We were there to support Alexander, who had been crawling back to Catherine. While I thought she was right, the guy was my friend, and I couldn't help but stand by him. However, Rick and Fred got me worried when they mentioned that the girls were mobilizing to make all of us grovel because of Alexander's mess. Fred said that Melissa had called all the girls together at Catherine's request, and I kept wondering where they could be."Do you guys know where they went?" I asked. Surely Samantha would be with them, even though we had plans to meet. Maybe I could swing by to pick her up."Mel said it's none of our business and told me to tell you guys that," Fred commented, somewhat annoyed. Sometimes I thought he was afraid of his girlfriend, because I was sometimes - Melissa could be scary."If we could find out where they are, we could go there," Patrick suggested. "Rick, you could track Tess's phone, right?""No way, Patrick. La
Henry's POV"So, Alexander, what's this brilliant idea that got me out of bed before six in the morning?" I asked when I met the guys on Monday at a café near Alexander's company."We're sending flowers to our women, my friend, lots of flowers!" Alexander smiled."That's a good idea. Melissa's being impossible," Fred commented."What kind of flowers?" Rick asked."Everyone picks their own, but it has to be an arrangement that shows them how crazy we are about them," Patrick said with that silly grin on his face.We finished our coffee and went to the 24-hour flower shop. When we arrived, the florist showed us various arrangements on her computer that she could make. But Patrick, being Patrick, spotted a massive arrangement in the corner of the shop and called our attention to it."That's the one!" Patrick pointed, making even the florist laugh.It was a huge arrangement of pink flowers in a tall crystal vase. That thing must have been three feet in circumference. It was way too big."S
Henry's POVAt the usual time, I was waiting outside the store for Samantha to come out so we could grab coffee. She looked stunning in tailored lilac pants, a white silk blouse, and high heels. She had styled her hair in a low bun with two strands framing her face."Hey Henry! Playing smart again? Did your mom stop praying for you?" Samantha said as soon as she left the store."What are you talking about, my goddess?" I knew very well it was about the collective flower attack, but I thought it better to play dumb.Samantha greeted me with a kiss on the cheek, and we started walking toward the café."Of course you know what I'm talking about. Do the super friends only do things together now? If one doesn't do it, the other won't either?""Sam, didn't you like the flowers?""I loved the flowers, Henry, but it seems they were sent with a hidden agenda. Mel's right, it looks like you guys are trying to manipulate us.""It's nothing like that, my goddess." I stopped and faced her. "We just
Enzo’s POVBeing a student was getting harder and harder. The English teacher decided to make us read a book that was almost impossible to find. I had to trek all the way across town because out of all the bookstores in the malls, only this one had it. Everyone was complaining that they couldn't buy the book because they couldn't find it. I spent two days on the phone and finally tracked it down. So I rushed to secure my copy to avoid getting a zero on the test that the teacher had already warned us about.But since I was at the mall, I might as well take a little walk around. I bought the book first - I had reserved it, but you never know if someone might accidentally sell my copy, so I went to the bookstore first. When I left, I was walking through the food court when I spotted Aunt Pearl at a café nearby. I had to say hello."What a coincidence! Aunt Pearl, how are you?" I approached and noticed she was with a younger woman who was pretty but strange-looking."Enzo, darling, what a
Samantha’s POVMy bachelorette party was the most fun event I'd ever been to, despite the snake incident. Erica and Emilia had really outdone themselves. However, it wasn't as enjoyable for Henry, who was tense and worried when he came to pick me up.At home, he told me about his suspicion that Isabella had sent the snake, and I was surprised - I hadn't thought that insufferable woman would be so brazen.We spent Sunday at home, resting and just enjoying each other's company. It was nice to have that peaceful moment with him, knowing the upcoming week would be hectic with wedding preparations, even though everything was already set.This week, I needed to get ahead with all my work since I'd be on my honeymoon with Henry the following week. Starting Thursday, I wouldn't be working as I'd be at the beach house overseeing all the wedding setup. I was so busy that during lunch, I just had a quick snack while working and turned Manu away when she came for afternoon coffee.Then my phone st
Romulus’s POVLittle Samantha must have been crazy if she thought she could ghost me like that. I've called several times and she won't answer, where could she be hiding? I needed to teach her a lesson, but this week I couldn't put my plan into action since Sandro needed me to check the accounts at his drug spot.Sandro wanted me to move to the hill, but to be honest, I preferred little Nicole's apartment, it was better located. But there's no way around it, I made a deal with him and he was the boss. He only gave me one more week to sort things out with little Samantha.I would use this week to resolve my situation with little Samantha and deal with little Nicole too. I was running out of patience with her, but it had to look like an accident, after all, she's Sandro's sister. I was going to do the job and blame the old man, but the idiot got arrested and was even trying to go back on our deal. He wanted little Samantha all to himself - that was pure greed.But little Nicole was still
Henry’s POVI arrived at the Social Club with Edward and Enzo. The guys had reserved a room there and they'd gone all out - they'd set up a room with a pool table, poker table, and arcade games, leather sofas scattered around, and a 1950s-style bar stocked with every kind of drink. This was going to be fun and relaxing."So, ready for your last bachelor party bender?" Patrick asked as soon as I arrived."I thought this day would never come." Alexander approached and handed me a glass.Only then did I notice they were all wearing the same t-shirt - a black one with a cartoon of me being dragged by a rope tied to my foot by a cartoon of Sam, with "game over" written below. These guys were acting like kindergarteners.As if the t-shirts weren't enough, they had prepared several activities, and they all involved lots of alcohol. I probably wouldn't remember my own name the next day.I was already slightly drunk when I saw Flavian answer a call and slip out of the room. When he came back, h
Samantha’s POVThe plans for the night were explained, and the girls decided to start the games. Soon we were all seated, and a bowl with folded papers was placed in front of me."Let's start with the lingerie, everyone grabs your box," Erica said, kicking things off."Okay, Sam, you'll draw a paper and read what's written. To win the gift, you have to guess who experienced the situation described in the paper. If you guess wrong, you'll have to share a situation that happened to you. When you open the present, you'll keep your eyes closed and feel around to figure out what it is. Got it?" Emilia explained the rules of the game."Oh my god! Alright, let's begin," I said and drew the first paper. "On my first time, my boyfriend and I watched some movies to learn because it was his first time too. When we tried to do a position we saw in a movie, I accidentally kicked him in the face, and he fell off the bed and broke his nose. I ended the night still a virgin and in a hospital making up
Samantha’s POVThe week had finally ended, and it had been exhausting. Romulus kept calling and threatening me, but Flavian said the wiretap was active and they were gathering lots of evidence, including proof of other crimes Romulus was committing, so he'd be arrested again soon. But it was horrible to keep getting his calls and hearing threats, not knowing what to expect.As if that wasn't enough, ever since he found out that Edward's sisters were organizing my bachelorette party, Henry had been pestering me to know what they had planned, why I'd let them organize the party, and if there would be any kind of wild rituals, as he put it. I assured him I knew nothing about it, but that he shouldn't worry. However, he kept suggesting every five minutes that we should ditch our friends and family and spend time just the two of us. He was driving me crazy with this whole thing, but I wouldn't budge - I was having my bachelorette party, and it would be fun, he'd just have to deal with it.I
Henry’s POVThe week was coming to an end. The days had been challenging, but in a week, I would say yes to the woman of my life, and we would be united in marriage. However, what truly united us was our love. And each day, I loved her more.If someone had told me a while back that I would be eager to get married and have a family, I would have called them crazy. But at those days, that was all I felt - eagerness for the wedding, for the arrival of my child, eagerness to get home every day and see the woman of my life smiling at me. I was a lucky man; I had everything that made me happy and even more."Good morning, Henry!" Melissa greeted me with a very cheerful and festive hello."Good morning, crazy girl! What's got you so happy?" I asked, finding her too effusive."Oh, I don't know, maybe a girls-only party tomorrow, or the wedding of history's biggest ladies' man next week..." Melissa pondered, looking up with a pen in her mouth, making me laugh."Mel, what's going to happen at th
Reynold’s POVI was still wondering how that idiot Henry managed to get to that hotel. When Samantha walked in, I was sure she was expecting to meet him, and just by her being there, I knew she hadn't talked to that fool. But somehow he found out and ruined my plans.And that wasn't all - he showed up with that brute of a detective who immediately started pushing me around. God, that detective's hand was heavy; the punch he gave me in the face still hurt.I just wanted my night of pleasure with Samantha, and I wasn't willing to share my first time with her with that little thug Romulus. I made a deal with him, but I wasn't interested in waiting until he felt like letting me fuck that hot piece. So I handled it my way - borrowed some money from Reuben and put my plan into action. I remembered the lunch at Hebe's house when Samantha was talking about how Henry would make romantic surprises and always give her red roses - such terrible tackiness! But it was useful because she fell for my
Samantha’s POVIt was very difficult to calm Henry down when I called to tell him what happened at the dinner. He wanted me to quit immediately, and it took a long time to convince him that I was safe inside the company.I knew he would rush out of his office to come to my workplace again, which was happening far too frequently lately. Fortunately, it was already the end of the day, so his work wouldn't be left aside once more because of me.Henry arrived in less than half an hour, leaned on my desk, and looked into my eyes - his irritation was palpable."Samantha, I wasn't happy about you working and being exposed to danger before, and now that you're pregnant, I like it even less. We should rethink this," Henry placed both hands on my desk and immediately voiced his concerns."And what do you expect me to do? Stay locked up at home?" I asked calmly. "Because that's not going to happen.""Sam!" Henry threw himself into the chair in front of my desk, completely frustrated. "I don't wan
