OLIVE BECKETT

“Woah, I didn't know you had crazy exes.”

“Genevieve is not… Never mind about her.”

I acted like there was nothing wrong, but it was far from that. Something about what she said made me scared, and I shouldn't be, right? This is fake. This is not real at all, but why do I always have some kind of hope?

Easton walked back into his study as his security guy walked out. I slowly walked upstairs, unaware of his stare.

“Olive, can I see you for a minute?”

I froze mid-stairs, turned, a

  • Melting The Ice Captain    Chapter 89 : Advice

    EASTON CARTERI had called for a meeting with Ethan at the cafe. At first he was worried but I assured everything was fine right after. He dropped down from his car and walked right into the cafe. It didn't take long before he spotted me.“So, what was so important you had to get me out of an important meeting?” He asked while he sat, propping an eye brow.I sat straighter. I could tell he was trying to decipher what the actual problem was from my expression.“I want to propose to Olive. I want to make her my wife,” I blurted.“Woahhhhhh. I didn't…are you sure?” “Yes. I don't know.”“You're not sure if you want to make your girlfriend your wife?” “I…did that sound bad?” “I don't know,” he rested on the chair, arms crossing his chest. “Is it?”“Look, I didn't call you here to ask me questions.”“I know that. But you called me here because you already have a decision made and need my advice. But it doesn't seem like that.”“I've just been…thinking.”“About what? Does she not want th

    OLIVE BECKETT “How is that I just walked round and picked out things that I liked and I'm this exhausted?” I complained from my spot in the kitchen as I watched Easton prepare dinner.He had sent the servants home for the night, so it was only the two of us in their big house.“Walking around can be really stressful you know?”I groaned in agreement then took a sip of my orange juice. “I should have drank a lot of red wine and champagne at your parents anniversary,” I said with a deep sigh.Easton chuckled and dropped a plate of seedless grapes in front of me. “You can have the raw materials of red wine though,” he teased with a smile.“It's not the same,” I groaned and threw one into my mouth. “Oh, this is really good.”He laughed, returning back to the cooker. “The duck will be ready in some minutes.”Smiling as I ate more of the grapes. “Your talents in the kitchen is really impressive. Some months ago, you couldn't even boil rice to save your life and now, here you are preparing

  • Melting The Ice Captain    Chapter 87 : Congratulations, Ms Beckett!!

    OLIVE BECKETT I could feel myself being carried at first then nothing. I couldn't feel or hear or smell anything.Just darkness. It felt like I was trapped and stuck. I couldn't scream or shout for help. It wasn't a weightless nothingness, the darkness had weight. It pressed into me from all sides.I was…Sharp bright light suddenly filled my vision, I blinked, trying to adjust to the light. Sweet relief filled me as I took a deep breath, I could feel my body.I felt sore in some places but I was okay. Blinking, I looked around, trying to recognize where I was.“Olive,” someone said, their voice light. I felt their hand in mine almost immediately after.I blinked at the direction the voice came from.Who…?Easton. My heart rate increased as memories flooded my head. My vision became blurry with tears. This wasn't the first time I lost consciousness, so why had it felt like that?Something was different.“The doctor is on his way,” Easton comforted me. “Everything is alright. I'm he

    OLIVE BECKETT Easton was packing my lunch when I walked into the kitchen all dressed and ready to go.“Thanks babe,” I kissed his cheek. His cooking had gotten really good lately and luckily for me, he enjoyed cooking for me.“Anytime.” He hugged me and handed the bag to me. “I'm having practice today so I won't be able to pick you up.”“Alright. I'll take my car then.”Nodding, he went to bring the keys for me.“Babe, did we later discover who ordered the pizza last night?” I asked.“No. Don't think too much about it. Stuff like this happens once in a while.”“They get the address wrong and deliver things to your house?”“Yep.”He gave me the key and took my bags from me. “As long as the security wasn't worried, everything is all good.”I sighed, “Alright. Thanks for preparing lunch for me. Have a great day.”“You too sweetheart.”We kissed, I took my bags from him and left the house.I couldn't stop thinking about it though. The timing just seemed weird to be just a coincidence. Pl

  • Melting The Ice Captain    Chapter 85 : Who ordered pizza?

    EASTON CARTER Olive couldn't make it to the meeting with my brother because of work, so she called Summer yesterday to apologize. I was here for both of us.“How does one plan a surprise party for billionaires?” Summer complained from her position on the couch, my brother's lap to be precise.I blinked at her. “I don't understand why you're so worried. They will love anything we prepare, you know this.”This wasn't exactly our first rodeo when it comes to preparing a surprise party for our parents. Given her relationship with me, Summer was always a part of the planning and executing team but most importantly, she used to be the messenger between my brother and I. Granted that it had been a while since we did something like this, it still didn't explain her nervousness.“Yeah but I wasn't their daughter in law then. That changes everything.”I glanced at Ethan to see if he understood what was going on, he shook his head in response.“It's about making a good impression, big oafs,” s

  • Melting The Ice Captain    Chapter 84 : Checked

    OLIVE BECKETT There was no other soul around here but us and no light either apart from the one coming from streetlights in a distance, I had checked.I went on my toes and kissed him. His lips tasted like salt and his own taste mixed together, I loved it.I heard the wet shirt fall with a thud, Easton wrapped his hand around my waist and took over the kiss.Moaning, I clung harder, rubbing my body against shamelessly his hard cool one. He groaned and proceeded to fuck my mouth with his tongue. Whimpering, I let him, goading him on with little licks.Panting, he pulled back and followed slightly with a whimper.“Fuck sweetheart,” he growled, his thumb tracing my bottom lip. “We're outside, wait for moment and I will give you what you want at home.”I shook my head and took his finger into my mouth. I couldn't see his face clearly but his shiver told me everything I needed to know.He wanted this, just as bad as I did.I spoke around his thumb. “Please? No one is here.”Easton chided
