"Kyle, have some papers made for me." James barked out the orders as soon as his PA picked up the call, "I want them on my table within an hour. I am emailing you the details."
He hung up the phone and directly barged inside the grand hall of their office building. He saw Kara and Damon walking towards their floor through the automatic stairs, his gaze followed them, but he didn't follow them. Instead, he continued on his way and got inside the lift, going straight to his own office.
The elevator dinged, and he was out. His hands fished for something in his pocket, anything that would put his mind at ease, but there was nothing that would touch his hand. In frustration he pushed back his hair roughly and slammed open his own door, going straight to his office table. Punching down the keys, he quickly formed up a details, read through ev
"You...?" Kara whispered.Without answering, he pushed open the door fully and came inside barging in. He was wearing a black suit, the first two buttons of his white shirt were open. His eyes scanned the room first, then returned to Kara."You going to stand there only? Are you not confident of walking out of here without falling for my charm?" James raised his eyebrows.Kara pursed her lips but did not respond to him. She knew he was acting rashly in anger, just like he always did. It was going to be no surprise to her if he again started saying hurtful words just to calm down his own heart."I have to go down in five minutes. Please get out." She turned her head away, staring outside towards the open area where evreryone had already gotten seated. She saw Rita, and Neil standing up from their chairs and going towards the stairs. They were coming up to get her most probably to go down for the wedding.She felt a hand on the back of her neck that
Kara's eyes flash at James filled with absolute fury. She could not believe the man that stood in front of her eyes. How could he do this to her? To his whole family? Disrespecting and insulting them in front of the whole world just to fulfill a damn stubborn desire. "You have lost your damn mind." she whispered, barely able to stop herself from shouting at him and shake some sense into him. "I lost that years ago, sweetheart. You don't have to worry about that anymore." James was looking at her with smug expressions. He knew he had her trapped from all directions. But then before he could do anything else, Neil grabbed James by his collar and started dragging him away. "Uncle!" Kara cried out, worried about his health getting wor

Kara felt a hand slipping in her own as she stood in front of the tombstones of her mom and dad. Her hand shivered and she immediately snatched it back, away from James' grasp. She then proceeded to take a few steps and bend down on her knees to place the while roses on the stone. Her hands slid back to rest on her knees as she guiltily tried to not break down in tears. She did not want James to be here right now. This was the first time since their death that she had come to see them. She felt ashamed.In her heart, she prayed for her mom's forgiveness for breaking a promise that she should not have. A hand was suddenly on her shoulders, pulling her sideways. She resisted and put up her hands to block him but he forcefully made her head rest on his shoulders until she was finally not struggling so hard to breathe and stop the tears from falling down. Her breaths broke into small sobs, h
Kara was looking out of the car window without saying a word. Her hands were folded under her chest and she kept staring out without giving James a glance. She could not believe she had lost her cool like this. Like a freaking child! Who does that?! 'Ran around in a fucking cemetery to smash her husband's head' - the newspaper highlight of tomorrow's issue. She wanted to bury her head in the sand."Hey, shorty, turn on the radio." James's teasing voice nagged at her.Kara gritted her teeth and avoided him. She was trying to bury that intense sensation of frustration that kept making her turn into an idiot in front of him."Come on! Don't tell me that you are angry because you are short and can not catch up with me? I would have given you some of my le-"
Kara was startled at his words, and immediately took a step back, but James grabbed her waist and pulled her smack close to his body so she stays in her place. He lowered the flower to her neck and his lips were immediately replacing the touch of the flower on Kara's lips, planting a soft kiss. His tongue stuck out to gently lick her bottom lip before taking it in his mouth to suck with teasing, slow strokes.Then he pulled back a little, but his mouth moved sideways to kiss Kara's rosy cheek and then slid to her ear and whispered softly, "I love you."Kara stayed stock still throughout his actions. She had closed her eyes when he had kissed her, and now when he whispered those words in her ear, she opened her eyes and found the colorful lights of the amusement park that had been irritating her barely a minute ago, now twinkle wit
"I want to talk to her." Damon responded without removing his gaze from Kara's sleeping form. She had dark circles under her eyes as she slept in Jame's arms. Damon was not even sparing a glance to James because he knew that the moment he looked at him, he is going to break out in absolute fury."She is not available. Get out." James said dismissively and turned around to walk away.He had taken a couple of steps forward when a hand on his shoulder snatched him back harshly. James turned around without loosening his hold on Kara. Anger was clear in his eyes when he stared at Damon's seething form."Don't make me punch you in the face." Damon muttered through clenched teeth and expanded his hands, ready to snatch Kara out of James' arms but James turned sideways, throwing daggers at Jam
Damon left but he had scratched the wound in Kara's heart that was already bleeding. The animosity between Damon, James, and his family had deepened so much. James' stubbornness was making everyone's life harder.When the door to the bedroom opened, Kara sat up and turned towards the door to find James coming in to sleep on the same bed."James, sleep in some other room."James ignored her and grabbed the blanket, covering his bottom body with it, and turned his head in Kara's direction, "We are married. I am going to sleep with my wife."Kara sighed at his words and tried to get up and out of the bed to sleep in another room but he grabbed her by her waist and pulled her back in the back in one swift pull. His arm covered
