Sophia watched as Lennox stirred when the ray of sun hit his face, his eyes squeezing and making her heart tug in her chest. She sighed in contentment, knowing that she was completely whipped for him because she wasn't even freaking out about having sex with him all out of the blue, or that it had also been unprotected sex, and that she could end up becoming pregnant. The last part was a bit daunting but what they shared had been such a mind-blowing, out-of-this-world experience for her and she planned to treasure every minute of it.Lennox's eyes fluttered open, his dark lashes prominent against his face because of the sunlight and Sophia fought the urge to kiss them, as if staring at him wasn't creepy enough.Lennox smiled as he saw her watching him, a blush spreading over his cheek and it was so adorable Sophia almost jumped him."Morning" he whispered, his voice scratchy and deep. Sophia decided she definitely wanted to wake up next to him all day every day just to hear him talk.
"She's with him and it's all your fault Vince" Jenny screamed in Vince's face, her smudged eyeliner making her look like she'd gone crazy as she stood in his flower-themed apartment, the pretty colors contrasting with her dreadful pale ash outfit. "He's fucking in love with her, so what do you want me to do now, huh."Vince huffed out a breath, staring at her incredulously. "How is this my fault and why do I always get the blame for everything. I tried my best didn't I, maybe it's time you accept the fact that Lennox doesn't want to be with you..."Jenny gaped. "Are you serious rights right now? Look if you only have shit to say to me just shut the fuck up and let me think" she snapped, rubbing her finger against her forehead. Jenny jerked to face him, her eyes lightening up. "I want you to call his mother. Tell her that Lennox is dating a low-life nobody and that she's only after his money."Vince frowned. "Are you serious right now Jenn? You of all people should know that that's a
Sana sighed as she scrolled through the images that Oliver had sent of his activities during the week, images she had deliberately ignored and it made her feel shitty because she knew her duty as his mistress was to take care of him and commend him when he did something right but the pain she'd felt being reminded that Oliver was going to eventually get bored and leave her made her resolve harden. Sana shoved her phone into her bag because staring at his image was doing nothing to take away the ache that had settled in her chest since the ex-girlfriend incident.Sana stepped into the elevator as she thought up ways to break off the contract before she got in too deep. The whole relationship had happened because she wanted to keep her job during the competition and now there wasn't even a competition holding her down anymore. So why did she find it so hard to let go of him? The elevator opened and she felt her heart rate increase as she stepped out of it and walked toward Oliver's off
Andria's Apartment.Andria took a deep breath as she stepped out of her closet, spreading her arms as she took in the awed reaction of her friends, all except for Sophia who was smiling at her phone.Bianca and Sana noticed it too and turned to face her and Sophia must have felt the pressure of their stare because she slowly dragged her face from her phone and flinched when she met the hard gazes of Bianca and Sana.Sophia laughed nervously, making a show of dropping the phone. "I won't pick this up anymore, I promise".Bianca rolled her eyes. "I give you one minute top".Sana laughed. "Make that half a minute"Andria cleared her throat and they turned to face her. Sophia gasped, her eyes widening."Wow, that is such a pretty dress. How come I've never seen you wear it".Andria smiled, her anxiety lessening. "Well there was never an occasion for me to wear it. I just really want to impress Jonathan's parents. I don't want them to hate me"."They'll be crazy to hate you. You truly love
'I know I said bring your boss/lover over for dinner but I met someone and we're going to be spending a week in Paris getting to know each other... I'm over the moon. I think he might ask me to marry him. So please Let's reschedule ok'. Sophia read the message for the hundredth time shaking her head."Oh my gosh, not this again, but at least she'll stop bothering me while her new flame is still burning hot."Her phone pinged and she read through the text that was sent by Bianca.'End of the month party at your house tonight. Don't complain, cause you have a lot of cash that you don't spend, and also this party is low-key to celebrate you and Lennox getting together, so set everything up."Is she serious or tripping, and using my relationship with Lennox, that is desperate much" she said but she was grinning, because she loved the idea. "I gotta make calls or else this party would be the most boring ever".******The party turned out pretty great, and Sophia walked around saying hi to
Jenny screamed as she shoved her vase collection off the countertop, the sound of it jarring in the quiet atmosphere.She fell onto the pieces, the sharp edges of it cutting into her skin and she could finally breathe again as the pain registered. She'd secretly met with Lennox's parents and they had already settled everyone, so why did it seem like their plan was going to shit all because of Sophia. "I will never lose to you Sophia's, not in this life and definitely not the next. You're mine Lennox, I won't lose you after everything I did just to make you mine" she screamed before pulling herself off the mess she'd made. Her knees felt wet and she looked down to stare at the dark red liquid escaping the cuts on her knees.Jenny trudged to the drink cabinet, pulled out a bottle of vodka, and drank straight from it. She choked, her throat raw from the burn as she forced herself to swallow. Jenny stared listlessly around the room. "Why won't you see me Lennox? first it was Melissa an
Sophia stared through the window at the people walking around the front of her house, her brows creasing as she tried to place them. Her neighborhood never had that much traffic, and people didn't just Invade other people's space just for the heck of it, especially since it was still too early, so who were they and why were they holding gadgets. The shrill sound of her phone had her jerking back in shock."I seriously need to change that ringtone, my God!" She muttered to herself as she picked up the phone and answered the call. "This better be important Bianca"."Oh, it's fucking important alright. I know y'all were keeping your relationship low profile but you both just got outed big time and the reporters are swarming everywhere.""What?!" Sophia sputtered, then looked closely at the people moving around In front of her house and what they were holding were definitely cameras.Sophia frowned, her brains firing in different directions. "Hello, are you still there. Sophia" Bianca s
Lennox watched as Sophia paced around In his Mansion after he'd explained everything that happened to her. He hated seeing her agitated and witnessing how she'd almost gotten hurt because of him made his heart squeeze. If he'd gotten there any later than he had... He didn't dare think of what might have happened because it made him see red. His parents were another problem and the threat his father had made kept messing with his head every time he glanced at Sophia. Would it be better if he just... He groaned in pain, hating the very thought of letting Sophia go. He couldn't do it. No matter what happened, he needed to fight, fight for her even if it cost him his life.Soft hands grazed his cheek and he flinched, his gaze refocusing on the present and the breathtaking woman who stood in front of him."I'm here Lennox, so you should stop worrying. Everything is going to be alright. I mean once I work my charms on your parents, they'll be on your throat to marry me" she joked, attemp
