" Get in the car, we are leaving right now."
She was searching for her car keys in her bag, the garage was dimly lit and Ava held her breath when she heard a cold husky voice yell at a young lady. She hid behind their car and listened to their conversation. "Nathan, but the party hasn't begun yet", A young lady who should be twenty four years old muttered under her breath. One thing was certain, this man was powerful and she was definitely afraid of him. Her head was bent low and she couldn't maintain eye contact with him. 'Just who the hell does he think he is, huh.' He grabbed her hands and and swung the car door open. In the dimly lit garage, she was still able to get a clear view of this man. He was handsome, tall and his black hair shone brightly. But still, he had no right to treat her that way regardless of being handsome or wealthy. "I said get into the car, Camille. Don't make me force you", He was glaring down at her like he wanted to kill her. "I won't get into the car, Nathan. Not until you tell me why we are leaving when the party hasn't started." She noticed something, the young girl was afraid of him but she was stubborn and stood her ground unwavering. How could one challenge death? Her courage was definitely out of this world. For a few moments, there was akward silence and her legs were beginning to ache cause she had been squatting for a while now. "Since you can't respect my decision in this relationship or do whatever I say, then I feel there's no need to continue. We are done Camille" " W-w-what?" "You heard me right Camille. We are done." "W-why? Mr. Lewis, this is not what is stated in the contract. The contract I signed states that I will be your girlfriend for six months. It's only been a month and you are calling it off." A contract? Ava was shocked to her bones. "I'm quite sure you didn't read the contract, properly. Dean, please get me a copy of the document." Ava never realized there was someone else in the car, so when the back door opened, she nearly jumped to her feet. Seems like the man was aware someone was there but he didn't say a word. Ava heaved a sigh of relief, she wish she could go home but it wasn't possible because if she moved now, they would see her. "Camille, the contract becomes void if you can't respect his decision or do whatever he asks of you. I'm sorry but you breached the contract. Don't worry though, you will be compensated for the one month you have been with him", the guy who just joined them spoke and smiled warmly at her. He would stare in Ava's direction once in awhile and she was sure he had seen her earlier. The lady was crying and pleading and it made Ava wonder how rich he was for girls to throw their selves at him. At that moment another car drove into the garage and the chauffeur came down. He exchanged pleasantries with the cold, ruthless man and politely requested for Camille to get into the car so he could take her home. "Nathan, we are not done. I'm not going anywhere, I don't care what that piece of paper says." "Proving stubborn, huh? Well it might disappoint you to know I already got a replacement. You have to go, my new girlfriend wouldn't want to see me talking with my ex." Ava's eyes popped out of the socket. She was speechless and couldn't believe what she had just heard. 'A replacement? That soon? So quickly? Who the hell was this man?' It looked like Camille was about to cry again. Her face had dark clouds on it and they were threatening to break free any moment. She was tongue-tied and was still recovering from the shock he had put her in. "You have got a replacement for me? So quick? How? Were you cheating on me all this while? How could you? We just broke up and you are already replacing me?" Wait, where did the other man on black jacket go to? That was strange, he was there a few minutes ago, and she didn't hear the opening and closing of the car door. "Paint it however you want. All I know is I'm done with you. You had nothing else to offer except for your body of course, and now that I have gotten what I wanted, I'm paying you off." Ava's heart clenched when she heard the last words. This man was a beast, he didn't deserve love, he was a cruel beast who deserves to rot in hell. The chauffeur was still standing there, waiting for the both of them to finish talking so he could take her home but it wasn't them she was interested in. It was the man in black leather jacket, one minute he was there and the next he seemed to have disappeared into thin air. She gazed around hoping to see him. He was no where in sight but just when she was about to focus on the two people arguing in front of her, she felt a warm hand on her shoulder and she let out a shrill cry immediately. He was quick to place a finger on her lips whispering to her to keep quiet or else she would be heard and that would spell trouble for her. He spoke in a low tone, "you shouldn't be here eavesdropping, Miss."He threw a glance at the two and quickly took Ava by the hand. She didn't complain, she knew she would be done for if she was caught. The man in black leather jacket was able to sneak her out without the other two noticing. "What were you doing there, Miss?", He asked her when she was about to get in her car. "I'm- I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that, I'm really sorry. Thanks for what you did, I really appreciate it."Both of them were staring at each other as if trying to read what the other person had in mind. "It's fine. You should be on your way now, driver safely."Before he could turn his back to her, Ava threw a question at him. A question both of them were not expecting. "The man talking with, I mean Mr Nathan..." "Yes, what about him?""Can I give it a try? I mean being his girl?"He burst out laughing and Ava was trying to figure out if she had somehow cracked a joke. "Go home, Miss. Before I change my mind and have you punished for eavesdropping", his tone was different now and he kept a straight face.Ava took out her cellphone and handed it over to him, she didn't miss the look of surprise he had on his face. "I want you to give me his number and his home address. I want to come over myself and convince him that we can work things out."What kind of courage does this dainty figure have?[ Warning! This Chapter Contains Mature Content Not Suitable For Young Readers.] He gently unzipped my dress and the gown fell to ground. His gaze was causing more bad than good. It made me crave him more. I stepped out of it, our gaze still locked. In the past one second, Nathan has stared at my body in awe countless times. And here I was in the middle of some airplane, half naked with just my panties on. What if someone walked in? “ I will go change now. Hey, stop staring at me like that. It makes me want you more.. you have to promise to be a good boy and behave. We will have all the time in the world to worship each other's body when we are off this airplane.” “ I never said I planned to be a good boy, Aviva. Maybe I was but I changed my mind the moment I saw your smoking hot body. I really can't promise to keep my hands to myself, princess.” And he was being honest. I could make out the hunger in his voice as he spoke. I had starved this man
Hi, lovelies, I'm so excited to be back. I took a break but now, I'm are back fully. I'm so sorry for the delay. Ava and Nathan's love story is about to end.. We have just a chapter or two more to go.. And also for this last part of the book, I will be making use of the first person POV. Enjoy!! ***** “ Do you, Aviva Alexander, take Nathan Lewis to be your lawfully wedded husband?” Silence. The buzzing hall was now as silent as a graveyard. I'm sure you could hear just how loud one's heart pounded if you listened keenly. I smiled at Nathan, he had tears running freely down his face. Today, he dropped the “ Strong, arrogant CEO who doesn't give a fuck about anyone” and in it's stead, was a handsome young man who was capable of loving someone. In him I saw someone who was tamed to love, someone who doesn't know just how much love he's capable of giving because he has never given it a try. “ Uhm, I don't know if you noticed fluffy bear, but they are a
“ Nathan!” What was she doing here? It's a modeling audition for crying out loud. Nathan and Aviva folded their arms and watched her yell and whine about him being married. “ Caryn, can you slow down? By the way, who's married to you?” he asked and all eyes were fixed on them. This would serve as good entertainment while the judges were away tabulating the scores. “ Nathan Lewis, I will not have you humiliate me this way. I won't! Now, get up and let's go home.” she ordered like some boss who was passing out instructions to her employees. “ I'm not going anywhere, just yet Caryn. You can either have your seat and enjoy the show or you can choose to leave. Whichever works for you, my lady.” “ Are you being serious here? You're doing all this because of this, this ugly, classless girl? Are you not ashamed being seen with her? I'm pretty disappointed in you, Nathan. We have sophisticated, elegant and smart ladies in this city but you choose to chea
Modeling Audition, Semi-final & final. “ Nervous? I believe you will do perfectly well. You scaled through the last round remember? You will get through this also. We are rooting for you, Aviva.” “ Oh my goodness, this is the first time I have ever heard you say something positive. Thank you so much, Avery. I love you so much..” “ Girls, they are about to start. Come over.” Alex called out. Avery stared at her sister, she was grateful she had everyone back. They held hands and walked into the hall which was filled to the brim with people. Luckily, Alex had been able to secure seats for them all. “ Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the semi finals/ finals. We are pleased to see you all. After the first round, hundred people were screened out and only twenty were qualified to move on to the next stage.” “ Well, only five people will be taken from this round to go on to the final round where we will pick only two persons. B
“ Mom. I got the money and narrowly escaped death. Someone else has been framed for stealing the money.” she informed her mom on phone and the lady went hysterical. “ You got it? That's my girl. You're just like your mom, Caryn. I'm so proud of you, darling.” “ Thank you mom. I will transfer half of the money to Dad's account. I want his company to be back on its feet for good.” “ Alright love. Your father sends his regards. One more thing Caryn, be careful out there.” “ I will. I love you, I have to go now.” They were outside, with ears glued on her door. They had heard it all, but Nathan beckoned on them to follow him. They tiptoed, to avoid being heard. “ Now that we have gotten concrete evidence, what do we do next?” Hazel interrogated. “ We will let her keep the money. I'm gathering a lot of evidence and by the end of the day, she would be left with nothing. All she stole right now, is the alimony I'm supposed to pay a
“ What's going on?” There was absolute silence. If a pin had fell down, there was every certainty it would be heard. She walked in and met her beloved family in a state of distraught. She was sure they had heard the news already. “ Nathan honey, what is it? Why are you all seated there like some bunch of robots? Talk to me, somebody.” if there was one thing she was good at, it was pretense. She threw her shoes on the floor and rested her head on the couch. If they were not going to talk, then she would let them be. It was difficult to breathe as she felt a sharp pain around her neck. No one had expected it, not even Caryn herself. Nathan held her tightly around her neck, his fingers tightened every second, and his nails dug deeper into her skin. It wouldn't be long before she started bleeding. “ What are you doing, Nathan? Put her down!” Dean yelled but Nathan was no longer in control. He was infuriated and couldn't even hide it. “ N
