CAN’T GET CAUGHT

“No one,” I chuckled nervously, I had no idea Callum was standing out there.

“Ohkayyy; I got up to ease myself” he said as he walked into the bathroom.

I was thankful he didn't probe further.

~~~~~~~

“Morning babe” I greeted as Callum walked down the stairs,

“ common, join me for breakfast” I grinned as he approached, looking puzzled.

“ I made breakfast;” I exclaimed as he took his seat.

“To cheer you up” I added as I began to dish his omelet.

“ We have not had breakfast together in a while,” I watched as he began to eat. His face, void of any emotions.

“ Callum, you can always tell me when things are not going well” I broke the silence. Catching his gaze as his face brightened a bit.

He gave a smile that faded immediately.

“Thanks” he finally said, taking my hands in his and patting it tenderly. He soon let go and continued his meal

“Callum, I know you just want to make things right with Sonya,” I said, his gaze immediately averted, his face meeting mine.

    ONE STEP CLOSECallum's PovAmanda's kind gesture was now becoming more suspicious. I had the feeling in my gut that she was up to something. I couldn't get why she was suddenly in support of me making things right with Sonya. I recalled how she had sounded like she was mocking me the night of the dinner event.It was impossible that she heard the harsh words Sonya said to me, these thoughts were running through my mind when Stephen walked back in.“What took you so long?” I asked, glancing through the paperwork on the table.“ We have major shares in Power Corp now;” I said, handing the papers over to him.“ you will be representing me at the conference meeting tomorrow” I added as he glanced through the papers“Why aren't you coming?” Stephen questioned, his gaze moving from the papers to my face.“ I have somewhere to be” I responded, catching the confusion on his face as he gazed at me.“Don't tell me you are going after Sonya” he said, shaking his head in disapproval.“No Step

    OFF OUR TRAIL“Stephen, you cannot be serious,” I yelled, immediately I got into his houseI glanced at the heap of papers on his table.His aura still calm as he sat before me on the huge black sofa, running his hands through some of the papers before him.That was something Stephen had. His ability to remain calm in chaotic situations.“ You cannot kill Callum, that will draw a lot of attention to us,” I said,parading before him.“You cannot do that,” I leaned in, holding his face in my palms tenderly.“Stephen, we have to be logical if we want to achieve our goals,” I said almost in a whisper,trying to convince him.I was not about to watch Stephen kill Callum and ruin all of my plans, at least not before I achieved everything I wanted.“Fine, we will do it your way; but if he comes closer to the truth again, I will just have to take things into my hands” Stephen said, his tone serious.I took a deep breath. The relief that washed over me hearing what Stephen said was one I have

    Sonya's POV *****"Congratulations, Mrs. Peters. You're four weeks pregnant!"As soon as I heard those words from the doctor sitting behind his desk, my mouth fell, my eyes fluttering as I tried to wrap my head around the whole thing. I'm... I'm pregnant? I wracked my head, trying to think of how possible this was. My husband, Callum Peters, and I have been married for three years. But it wasn't a happy union.Our union was an arranged marriage from both our parents to secure both our family names after the media scandal incident that involved the two of us.Callum's parents have always pressured him for an heir and we have tried our best to have a child to no avail. We even tried IVF but that proved fruitless too. "T– Thank you, doctor," I muttered, my face heating up with a blush as I stretched my right hand forward and took the result papers. I stared at the results, my eyes skimming through as if I still couldn't believe the doctor's words. Maybe it's because I couldn't.Aft

    Sonya's POV *****Callum finally seemed to come back to his senses after I barged into his office, his eyebrows furrowing into a frown as he gently shoved Amanda off his body while glaring at me. "What the fuck do you think you're doing here?" He queried, dimming his eyes as he walked around his table and headed toward me, not even bothering to arrange his slightly undone buttons.I felt my attempt at breathing getting harder and harder as I watched the man I called my husband walk toward me with contempt in his eyes as his gaze trailed my body. "Well? Have you suddenly gone deaf or mute?" I clenched my jaw, glancing back only to see Amanda standing behind Callum on the other side of the office with a sly smirk on her face. Enough is enough."C– Callum, you cheated on me. You've been cheating on me all this while?" I queried, my chest tightening and my stomach turning as if I was about to throw up.I shouldn't be subjecting myself to this kind of stress right now that I am pregna

    Sonya's POV *****After three weeks of being in the hospital, I was finally released and deemed stable enough to leave on my own. Nobody had come to visit me, but I didn't mind anyway. Okay, who was I kidding? It hurt me to my bones that no one had cared enough to check in on me or at least, call. The only people who had called were my parents but I had told them I was fine and didn't disclose any more details, fearing that I would disappoint them. Anyway, as I stepped out of the hospital building, I hired an Uber to take me back to Callum's house. On the drive there, I sat silently, staring out of the window as an overwhelming sense of sadness and emptiness encroached on me like an ocean rising and covering a small island. Tears stung the back of my eyes and eventually began falling freely, my breathing becoming hitched as my hands went to my stomach.My baby is gone. My marriage with Callum is uncertain and the rational thing to do now would be to leave him.But... But I can'

    Sonya's POV *****I didn't want to sign the divorce papers at first. I turned to Callum's parents and pleaded with them to help me reason with their son but they mocked me and sided with his actions. "Callum did nothing wrong but has managed to give us grandchildren with that girl. Something you couldn't accomplish." His father had spat coldly at me."Get out of here and sign those papers! We don't need a barren daughter-in-law." His mother had added, pushing me out of their house. I had no choice but to sign the papers and hand them back to Callum a few days later."Good job." He remarked when I brought the papers over to him in the house that had once been our marital home. "Now we can finally be free of each other."Free of each other? I NEVER wanted to get rid of him despite all the hardships I endured with him. Despite all the hurtful words and even after I caught him with Amanda.He and his family had just cast me out without warning or a single ounce of pity or remorse.Des

    Callum's POV *****One year.It's been one year since my divorce from Sonya, the woman who I had deemed useless all this while because of her inability to bear me an heir and because I was in love with Amanda, the mother of my children.But after everything, there was this deep emptiness that came that I had never experienced before. I didn't know what it was but I knew that Sonya haunted my dreams. All I ever seemed to think about these days was her and it was driving me insane and also turning my marriage to Amanda sour. "What's gotten into you, Callum?" Amanda scolded me one night after I came back from a company meeting drunk.I had finished the meeting and then got drunk after stumbling into a bar in the city. It had taken a lot of effort for me to even get into my car and drive back home only to meet Amanda and her nagging."You're becoming a mess every day, and now you're coming home late?" Amanda nearly exclaimed, anger clear in her voice as she closed the door behind us a

    THE SEARCHCallum's povI glanced at the envelope on my desk, “Sonya” was boldly written on it. I could not tell what it was, but I knew a part of me longed for her.As soon as I took out the first photograph in the envelope, my heart raced. Memories of how she had come into the office, and how sad she had reacted when she saw Amanda and I crept back in.I sighed, hating myself for how I treated her. I had a private investigator find information about her new life.with the consultation that I'd feel better once I find her and apologize.“I am really sorry Sonya” I blurted, not realizing I had said it out loud. “Who are you apologizing to ?” Stephen’s voice brought back my consciousness. “ Nothing!.. Em.. No one Was that loud?” stuttering, I shoved the envelope underneath my desk avoiding further questions.Stephen sat before me, smiling “ you seem troubled” he let out. Stephen had been my right hand man for a few years now and we had developed a friendly relationship. The young ma

    YOU CANNOT HAVE MEI lowered my head and walked past Callum, not wanting to engage in any type of conversation whatsoever. But he had other plans, he pulled me back immediately I passed him, pushing me into the lady's room and swiftly closing the door behind us.“What are you doing?” I yelled, I was livid.“Are you just going to pretend you didn't see me?” he questioned, folding his arms before him as he continued.“After last ni…..”“ stop!” I yelled before he could complete his statement.“Just stop Callum!; Whatever happened was a mistake that could have been avoided if you didn't take advantage of me”my fists clenched in annoyance.“I would never do that,” he defended, leaning in on me.“I just wanted to help you to your room; you were drunk and it just happened”he added, gazing at me.“Callum things like that don't just happen” I said, not buying any of the words he was saying.“Listen Sonya,” he said, cutting my words short.“This is fate bringing us together; I didn't mean for

    COME UNDONE 2Sonya trailed her fingers down to her wetness, I was taking off my shirt when I caught a glimpse of her fingers, going in. I dashed back to the bed, caught her hands in mine“No! Let me do that for you” I whispered, my voice hoarded. I grabbed both of her hands in my arm and held them in place over her head.I could feel her heart racing as I teased, rubbing my hands against her clit before I pushed it in.“Arghh!” she gasped, her toes curling as she arched, pushing her pussy against my fingers repeatedly.Her feminine scent filled the air, making my already hard shaft pulse. I wanted to be inside her badly; to feel her wetness against my shaft.But I kept up with my fingers, I needed her to want it more than I did, I wanted her to beg for it.She looked me in the eye, her eyes pleading as she arched against my fingers, curling her toes.“Tell me what you want,” I whispered into her ears.“I-I want y-you,” she said, pausing to catch her breath because of the budding ple

    COME UNDONESonya's povTwo weeks have passed since Callum's confession, I have not heard anything from him since then. A part of me wanted to see him again, mostly because I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that he apologized and it seemed genuine.I was dying to know if he had meant it or it was just a phase.Somehow, I convinced myself that if I see him one more time I'd be able to tell.But all that is pointless now, as much as I wanted to know his intentions, a large part of me never wanted to have anything to do with him again.My eyes were fixed on the streets as we drove to the show. Stacy in the passenger seat.I had decided to stay for a bit in LA to be with my parents and also build my brand with the help of my label. We got to the show and in no time, I was prepared to mount the stage and thrill the audience. I mounted the stage, full of courage; I can never get over the smiles and cheers I get from my fans whenever I perform.I smiled back“Good evening every

    IN LOVE WITH HerI sat across from Callum. My gaze fixated on him. I watched as he averted his gaze from mine. A part of me wanted to believe that he was actually innocent, but I knew that was me just convincing myself that there was still some good in him.The doorknob twisted, and the police came in, scrutinizing the piece of paper he had with him“Miss Sonya, why do you think Mr Peters is responsible for your kidnapping” he questioned.“It's a simple officer,” I said, “He is a freak!” I added, glaring at Callum whose gaze was fixed on the table separating us. He said nothing since he got in. Giving the aura of a saint. But I knew it was a disguise, I was not falling for any of it.“I just wanted to make things right with my ex-wife” he finally broke his awkward silence.“ Yes, I did lots of bad things to you in the past,” he continued, his gaze now fixed on me.“ But this kidnap is not on me. All I wanted was to make things right” his face was void of any emotions as he spoke.“

Stacy turned around and left.“Oh common Sonya” she pouted, I just wanted to say hi.“It's been a while, you know, since I stole Callum from you!” my eyes widened in shock. Amanda chuckled in amusement. She was obviously enjoying my plight.“I mean since I took him back from you” she gave a smile that faded immediately, “Amanda I don't want to do this with you” I stated, walking out the door.“Stay as far away from Callum as possible” she yelled from behind, making me stop in my tracks.“Oh so that's what this is about” I turned around.“ You have nothing to worry about, Callum is all yours” I added. I looked her in the face, wondering why she was so bent on staying married to Callum.“Oh

    Her hero“ Where are you taking me?” I yelled at the top of my voice, pulling his hands off the steering violently.“Let me go you bastard” I spat, struggling with him, until he pulled the car over in a corner, the tires screeching.He glared at me, I could see the fury in his eyes; I knew he was going to hurt me. And in one swift movement, the force of his hands on my face sent me blurring out……..I opened my eyes, my head was spinning and my vision blurry. I could see him sitting on the sofa before me.Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the door. The mask man grabbed me, pulling me roughly as he made to escape.A strong force pushed the door from behind and it fell to the ground.I could not make out the face of who it was, but the familiar figure, tall and well built sent shivers down my spine.He dashed towards the masked man, pulling him roughly as he rushed punches into his face. “Callum!” it was Callum, my eyes gave up yet again as I fell hard to the ground unconscious.“It's
