CAMILLA

I sighed at my reflection in the mirror for the umpteenth time, staring critically at the dress I was picking for our date.

It was sequin blue and most definitely too formal to go to the tracks.

The thing is I had never been on dates before that did not involve family events and occasion and parties where I had to be the prime and proper daughter, smile at the men my father introduce me to and try to listen to them boast about a lot of things.

That was why I was having problems picking out a proper outing dress. It was definitely too late to hit the mall for something other than heels and dresses and so I decided to settle for pants.

No one could go wrong with pants and a plain tee accompanied by sneakers.

I was soon dressed and began to pack my hair up before I recalled Nathan’s stern warning about liking my head down.

I blushed again at this, shaking my head. He was just messing with me so why did that somehow do something entirely different to my system.

I have had men come

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    NATHAN

    NATHANWell, Leila would have to wait another day.I was discharged from the hospital the next morning and Camilla drove me back to the inn. She was quiet throughout the ride only responding to my questions with one worded answers. I knew she was still mad at me and so I was trying really hard to cheer her up which did not work.When we got back to the inn, she had moved her things to the room besides mine. Something about needing her own space and the room being available suddenly that evening.“You know, I could have an episode again and you would not be aware if you move out” I joked.Her eyes widened at the horror of my words and I almost bit my tongue knowing how it sounded.“I was just kidding, princess. I have the pills and they will be at arms reach. Nothing like what happened today will ever happen again, okay?”“But what if… I could move back in and…”“No, you need your space and I get it.” I told her, smiling.Deep down, I wanted her to move back in and to forgive me.I wan

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    NATHAN

    NATHANShe is crying…God, no.This is not what I want.Pain crawled up my chest digging its claws into my ribs and dragging the very breath out of me.I had felt this before time and time again but none that had ever frightened me the way it did now.Camilla’s hands were shaking on my cheeks as she tried…unsuccessfully…to keep her voice steady. “Nathan… Nathan, please…just breathe. You are going to be okay.”“I know I do not deserve you,” I rasped.“Stop… just breathe… you are scaring me” “You are the only person… who makes me feel safe.”Her breath hitched and mine faltered.For the first time, I really did not care if she saw me weak. It did not matter to me that I was falling apart right there on her laps. All I cared about was telling her that I loved her so much and it physically hurt to not be everything she wanted me to be.My chest spasmed hard and my vision dimming at the edges.She gasped and reached for her phone with her free hand, but I grabbed her again. “No. Don’t leav

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    CAMILLA

    CAMILLAI thought about following after Nathan to understand what the hell was going on before I decided against it.I knew he did not want to talk about it so I was going to lay off until he decided to.I followed after Dexter however, who had the gait of someone about to do something drastic.“My partner did not mean what he said” I said right after stopping him.“I don’t know, Miss…”“Camilla is quite alright”“He seemed to have meant every word he said and while I agree that we could have handled the contract we have with Denver constructions better, I would not be letting them bully us into accepting this monstrosity they are about to build. You will all be here from us”He walked away before I had the chance to say anything else. Not like there was anything to say with the way Nathan had behaved.He was waiting for me in the car.I said nothing to him as I got in and we headed back to the inn.Three minutes into the ride and he sighed, turning to observe my straight face.“You a

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    NATHAN

    NATHANIf it were left to me, I would have asked Denver to shove it and gotten on the next plane out of the countryside.I hated the countryside… I hated small towns.It had nothing to do with the people or the things it had to offer which wasn’t much if we are being honest.My problem with small towns would have to be being born in one.My mother had died after my birth… something about losing too much blood and there not being enough to pump into her.The small town I had been born into had a coffee shop and a gaming center that was majorly converted into a wrestling ground as its only hold on civilization and my father… he was a drunk.A drunk who had let strangers bury his wife and had turned her son into a punching bag.It hadn’t been long before I turned thirteen that I left and never went back.That is when I met Leila’s father and began working for him.So, you see…“Are you okay?” Camilla asked, jolting me from my thoughts.“Yeah” I grunted.“You are holding unto my hand very

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    CAMILLA

    CAMILLAI got on the phone with my mother immediately I landed and she had questions particularly about why I did not think to tell her about Darren and that he had contacted me.“I wanted him to speak to you first and I know how much you have missed your brother and how much you have been wanting him to make the first move since he disappeared from our lives”She was quiet for a while before I heard her sniffle.“Eric is so adorable”I smiled.If there was one thing my mother was, it would be softhearted and also she particularly liked her brother. She had told me countless times about her love story with my father that started with a contract to take care of her mother and how Darren had been opposed to it until he heard it was the Jason Rodrigues.“He is, mom and I really need to go now because I just landed in the countryside and we have to go ahead to the property site and speak to a couple of people”“Okay dear, do not overwork yourself. I love you”“I love you more, mom. Say hi

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FOREVER CONTRACT    NATHAN

    NATHANIf I was a believer in the supernatural then I would say there was someone somewhere making my life better.I stared at Camilla wrapped up in my bed unable to sleep.She was beautiful and she was mine.Two days ago… hell, 24 hours ago, I could have sworn that there would be nothing between us ever again and right now, I was so sure nothing could come between us.I was in love with her.That much I was sure of with the entirety of my being.I loved Camilla Rodrigues.I wanted to know what had changed her mind but she had only said it was something her uncle told her when she went to meet him.“You know we are getting an early start today, don’t you?” Camilla’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts.I leaned forward and kissed her full on the lips as she stretched and giggled.“You are beautiful”She rolled her eyes at me.“Of course I am. Now we really need to start getting ready for the trip”“Do we have to?”“You are not the best position to not want to work, Nathan. We need to fi
