Lexi's POV

I shrugged Julian away, my face burning with embarrassment. “I…I didn't mean to kiss you like that. It was just to prove a point to your son. That's all,” I really hope he buys my words, but instead his eyes sparkled with a mischievous glint, his gaze holding mine.

“I think you did mean it, Lexi. And I meant it too. I want us to continue this…from where we stopped,”

I stepped away from him, my face still burning with embarrassment. “No, Julian. I didn't mean it like that,” My voice was firm, but my eyes betrayed me, darting away from his intense gaze.

“Are you sure about that little princess?” He asked as he took slow and steady steps closer to me. The way he said the word ‘little princess’, sent a shiver down my spine.

“Come on, Lexi,” I chided myself as I stepped back, trying to provide a room to be able to run away.

But he didn't give me any chance. He placed his hands on my waist and pulled me closer to him.

“I swear to God, I didn't mean it like that, Julia

    Lexi's POV “You bitch!” Claudia scoffed. Just as she was about to lunge at me again, my father's voice rang out, his eyes flashing with anger. “That's enough, Claudia,” he said, his voice firm, his deep tone echoing through the room. I watched as Claudia's face turned red with rage, her eyes blazing with fury. “Just stop it, Jenkins. You are the reason why she is a spoiled princess,’’ She hissed and I rolled my eyes. “If there is one person who is spoiled here, then it's your daughter.” I said through gritted teeth. “How dare you talk back to me?” Claudia's face turned red with rage, her eyes blazing with fury. “Please, Claudia. This is not why we called her here. Don't screw this up,” Claudia tried to protest, but she held herself. She seemed to realize that she couldn't take on my father like she always did. At least not at this moment. She shot me a death glare before walking away, her high heels clicking on the marble floor. Margaret glared at me too before stalking

    Lexi's Point Of View “Oh my goodness!” Margaret's scream sounded behind me. I was too stunned to move or say anything. My eyes were fixed on the small figure lying down at the foot of the stairs. “What have you done to my daughter?” Claudia's growl echoed through the room. It was only then that I snapped back to reality, but even though I did, I couldn't move. I just stood there watching them as they quickly dragged the little girl up from the floor. “Somebody call an ambulance!” Margaret cried softly while shaking her daughter, but the little girl remained unresponsive. “Call an ambulance, you blind bad. You are the main reason why she's in this condition.” My father's voice sounded behind me, nudging me. My hands moved on their own accord and I reached for my phone at the back of my pants. How could they be asking me to call an ambulance when the best they could have done was to find a way and get her to the hospital. Well, since that's what they wanted, I wasn't in the mood

  • The Heiress's Revenge: A Legacy Reborn    HIS REGRETS.

    Author's Point Of View The whiskey in Ethan’s glass was the same shade of amber as Lexi’s eyes—back when she used to look at him like he was her entire world, like he was all that mattered, like there was no one else, nothing else. Back before she was sent to prison like a criminal, before betrayal, before his father’s wedding ring was placed around her finger. He swirled the ice cubes absently, watching them clink against the glass. The bar around him was glinting with neon lights and filled with the sounds of drunken laughter, but Ethan barely heard any of it. Not when his mind was filled with a lot of memories, old memories that have come back to taunt him after three years. Lexi's smile, the way she tucked her hair behind her ear when she was nervous, or the way she fondled with her fingers like a puppy whenever she wanted him to do something for her, the sound of her voice whispering ‘I love you Ethan's in the dark. And the other memories. The arrest. The trial. The way

    JULIAN’S POINT OF VIEW The night air was filled with the harsh scent of tobacco and the distant murmur and cars of the city below. I leaned back in my chair and watched the scenery with great interest, the familiar weight of a cigarette between my fingers. The balcony of my study had always been my refuge…. A place where my past, the heavy weight of my past don't suffocate me as much as my room did. It was a place where I can boldly let go of my problems without feeling guilty about it. All of a sudden, the door creaked open behind me, the sound echoing through the stillness, as it tore me away from my thoughts. I didn't need to go around to know who it was. I needed no soothsayer to point it out. Only one person would ever barge into my space without knocking. His presence had always been like a storm rolling in uninvited. My unfilial son! Somehow I had gotten used to his obnoxious behaviour. I just had to force myself. "Still poisoning yourself huh, old man?" His voi

  • The Heiress's Revenge: A Legacy Reborn    I'LL GET YOU BACK

    ETHAN'S POINT OF VIEW The elevator doors slid open with a gentle sound and I stepped out, my polished shoes clicking against the marble floor. The lobby was quiet as usual, but this time around I noticed that it was unusually quiet and the only sound was just the hum of distant air conditioning and the faint sound of the cars driving on the main road. My mind was still reeling from the anger I had felt in my father's suite some minutes ago. I had gone there to speak with him, to make him let go of Lexi, so I could win her back and have her to myself. Heck, I had even gone as far as telling him that she was a prostitute who had been fucked countless times by I and my friends, but trust me, that was a big fat lie because all the time that Lexi and I were together, we came to an agreement that we wouldn't have sex with each other until whenever we got married. That was her decision and boy, I was totally fine with it. I loved her enough to respect her body and her decision. We da

    ETHAN'S POINT OF VIEW Fuck! The slap still burned my cheeks. I hadn't expected someone as soft as Lexi to have such strong hands, hands strong enough to make my cheeks hurt this much. I stood there, my fingers grazing my cheek where her palm had struck, the heat lingering like I've been branded with a branding iron. The echo of her threat—"I’ll cut your hands off"—played in my head on a loop, each syllable sharper than the last. I should’ve been furious. I should’ve fucking stormed after her, and demanded her to take the words back, and reminded her who the hell I was. But all I felt was... weakness. It was as if my legs had suddenly forgotten how to move, how to walk and all I did was stand there like a statue. The elevator doors had long since closed behind me, sealing me in this sterile hallway, the silence pressing in like a weight. All of a sudden— Brrrring. Brrrring. The shrill sound of my phone shattered the quiet. I didn’t move. I didn't even blink. Not wh

    Lexi's Point Of View As soon as I got into the elevator, I paused to take a deep breath. Can the day get any better? First it was Margaret's daughter and now it was the punk. ‘What the hell was he doing out there?’ I asked no one in particular, but just then, I remembered that Julian was his father and he must have come to meet him. But either way, how dare he try to kiss me? My skin still burned from where he had touched me, but it wasn't from longing, buried so deep. No, it was from disgust. Many years ago, I always looked forward to his house. I always wanted to wrap my arms around him and I always wanted him to do the same, but now, all I felt was pure disgust when he touched me. I guess I'll have to take a bath again. By now, the elevator bell dinged, indicating that I'd gotten to my destination and I took a deep breath before walking out and making my way straight to the house, my new house. “Welcome back home, Madame.” The housekeeper, a forty two years old woman greeted

    Lexi's Point Of View “What's going on here?” A familiar voice sounded behind us and almost immediately, I pushed Ethan away from my body and I quickly picked up the curtain and wrapped it around my body. This time, Ethan didn't try to stop me. Why didn't I push him earlier this way? I guess the voice startled him too, therefore he became less alert. I took my eyes to stare at the woman standing at the door. She quickly got in and locked the door behind her. As much as I was relieved to see that the woman was none other than Grace, I was happy to know that it wasn't Julian. Oh my goodness! What would I have said to him? “Madame?” Grace called when she didn't hear any response from me. But I didn't answer. Instead I turned to face Ethan and the next minute, my palms came down on his face in a loud snap. “How dare you touch me, Ethan?” I hissed through gritted teeth. I expected him to snap at me for hitting him, but he didn't. Instead he just smirked. “Weren't you enjoying it

  • The Heiress's Revenge: A Legacy Reborn    I'LL TALK SOME SENSES INTO HIM

    Margaret's Point Of View I dialed Daniel's phone and waited patiently for him to pick it up. He is Ethan's best friend and the only person who I know can talk senses into Ethan without any fear in the world. Whenever I need anything from Ethan, I make sure to ask Daniel to help me or whenever I needed someone to talk some senses into Ethan, he was my next option and thankfully, he always knows how to talk some senses into Ethan. Till date, I still have no idea how he does it. But I'm glad that he always helps. Daniel didn't pick at first and just when I tried to call him again, his call came in and without hesitation, I answered the phone. “Hi, daniel?” I was sure to clear my throat before speaking up. I have to speak in a firm voice. “Hi, Marga. Sorry I didn't pick up at first. I was with someone.” He answered and I giggled. “Who is she? Your new fling, huh?” I teased and the next minute, he burst into laughter. He knows that I know whenever he is with a woman and he never t

    Margaret's Point Of View “Have you tried calling him again?” My mother inquired as soon as she walked out of the ward where my daughter was placed and I couldn't even bring myself to answer her. She knows that I've been trying to reach Ethan, but I haven't been able to get to him. I've tried calling him over and over again, but he isn't even picking his calls. The last time I called him was two minutes ago and now that I've tried to call him again, I find out that he has switched off his phone. But the fact that he switched off the phone didn't even bother me. What pissed me off was the fact that he was at his father's house currently. Yes, I had tried to track him when he wasn't returning my calls, because I wanted to know where he was. And now that he is at his father's house, there is every tendency that he is with my fucking step sister. The fool is with LEXI. And that thought filled me with nothing but anger and more hatred for Lexi. She is the reason why my daughter is i

    Julian's Point Of View “You got married to that girl?” He asked and I nodded like he could see me. He knows about my obsession with my son's girlfriend ever since I set my eyes on her. In fact, when I met Lexi for the first time, I wanted to take things forward with her. I wanted to tell her how I have been admiring her for a long time and I wanted her to be my girlfriend…. No, not just my girlfriend. I wanted something more. I wanted her to be my wife. Yes, my wife. So she could have my kids. I've always wanted more kids, but my ex-wife never wanted one. She said her body was more important to her than any kids and I didn't push her to go against her wish. Now back to, Lexi. Of course, I told my friend about it. First of all, he was against me getting married to someone who was old enough to be my daughter. He asked me to go for someone else. And when I also found out that she was my son's girlfriend, I also told him about it. And Marcus was happy. The brute really didn't wan

  • The Heiress's Revenge: A Legacy Reborn    YOUR SON'S GIRLFRIEND?

    Julian's Point Of View I was about to leave my study and go to my little wife when a call came in on my phone. I wanted to ignore it. Heaven knows I wanted to, but I decided to sit back and answer the call. I reached for the phone which was across the table. The caller ID flashed in my eyes and I exhaled sharply. It was my best friend, Marcus. We've been together since we were teenagers. We did virtually everything together and we even went to the same college. We didn't lose contact with each other, even though we both went separate ways. During my time in college, I made lots of friends who turned out to be business partners till date. But as for Marcus, we are still very close friends till now, even though it's been over thirty years. Thirty? Nah! I think it's over forty. That's how long we've been together. “Hey, man. What's up with you?” His usual grumpy voice came up. “Marcus! What have you been up to?” I asked him and he exhaled. We haven't spoken in a while, especiall

    Ethan's Point Of View What the fuck is wrong with me? I hissed through gritted teeth as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I hadn't gone in there to seduce Lexi. I had only gone there to scold her for hurting my daughter. Yet, I had gone in there to make a fool of myself. I should have left when I heard the shower running, indicating that she was in the bathroom, but I couldn't. It was as if my legs had lost their balance and I couldn't move. I'd wanted to see that succulent body once again. I wanted to touch it.One thing I've come to know about her is the fact that she never fails to leave the bathroom naked. I've been with her for three years to know such little details about her. She rarely leaves the bathroom with her towel draped around her body. And when I heard that she was in the bathroom, I knew she was gonna do the same thing. And boy, she didn't disappoint. I could vividly remember how my cock felt at the thought of her body, pressed against mine. It's safe to sa
