CHAPTER TWELVE."I see you as my family."Adele and Jamal did not speak another word to each other after that sentence. She walked over to the sitting area where she read her book until she felt sleepy and went to bed, while Jamal worked almost the entire night as usual. When she woke up the next morning, he was nowhere to be found on the bed."Of course he left for…" Her words were cut short by the sound of the bathroom room door opening. She turned to look and her eyes almost fell off from their sockets when she saw Jamal walking out of the bathroom, with just his towel tied around his waist. His chest was bare and his eight packs were screaming "touch me!". There was steam flying all over his body and the way the water droplets trickled down his well toned muscles and apps made her swallow dryly.His hair was wet and ruffled and a few wet strands fell down his forehead almost concealing his left eye brow.He was smoking hot…He looked like a Greek god.She could not believe she was

CHAPTER FOURTEENOnce again, Adele and Jamal did not utter a word to each other after such an intense talk. They both kept their distances and engrossed themselves in their individual work and even at the dinning, not a word was said.They finally went to bed without talking about the issue. The night was a miserable one for both of them. No one shook from their spots on the bed and they both kept staring at the walls in front of them till their alarms went off.It was six am in the morning and it was time for both of them to wake up and prepare for work, even though they had gotten no sleep at all.Jamal was the first to step down from the bed, while Adele quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be fast asleep. Jamal, who knew she was pretending, walked over to her side of the bed."Adele." He called, but Adele did not bulge. "I know you are awake. I forgot to prepare my outfit for work last night, I need you to help me sort that out by the time I'm done bathing. Please." His reques

CHAPTER SIXTEEN.“You are Welcome, Mrs. King.” Kain, the butler greeted as he took Adele’s winter coat.“Thank you very much, Kain.” She responded with a sweet smile before heading for the staircase. All she wanted at that moment was to go into her bedroom and have a long rest. She had had a very hectic day at the office and barely had anything to eat as well.Her plans however, were ruined when she heard the voice of her mother in law calling her name.“Adele!” Her name came through again and she stopped on her tracks and rolled her eyes hard before turning to face the woman who was calling her like she was deaf.“Yes mother. Good afternoon.”“Keep your stinking greeting to yourself!” Aliya retorted bitterly. At that moment, Adele was confused because she had no idea what she had done to make the woman so furious. “How dare you!”“I… I don’t think I understand.”“You published an article today about a very good friend of mine and it was shown in the news. Do you have any idea how muc

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN.Adele shook on the bed and snapped her eyes open when her very loud alarm sounded. Letting out an exasperated sigh, she picked up her cell phone and quickly turned off the alarm. It was six am in the morning and she needed to wake up and prepare for work. When she turned back to the other side of the bed, she noticed that Jamal was nowhere to be found. She weakly sat upright to scan around the room, thinking he would be sitting around somewhere, but he wasn’t. The room was void of any form of Jamal. “No, he did not!” She whispered as she took off the sheets from her naked body and stepped down from the bed. She winced when she felt the soreness between her thighs and that’s when the memories of last night flooded her mind. She recalled how Jamal ate her in and out. How he made her scream and above all, how he made her cum.That was her first night with a man and he had made it an incredible one for her. He was gentle with her as if he knew she had been a virgin. Jus

CHAPTER TWENTY.Weeks passed and nothing changed between Adele and Jamal. He did not make it up to her like he had promised. They kept having sex like a regular couple and most times, Adele would wake up to an empty bed. He hardly stayed the night after spending the night with her. Adele was heartbroken and devastated. She wanted to tell Grandma all what Jamal was doing to her, but on a second thought, she changed her mind. It was her marital problem and she had to deal with it herself.Since her and Jamal were not on talking terms, she decided to immerse herself in her work to avoid thinking about him all the time. She was so busy with work that she forgot to care for herself. The past week, she had been feeling tired and nauseous most of the time. At first, she thought it was bad food she ate, but as the feeling prolonged, she began to suspect pregnancy. Her and Jamal had been having unprotected sex and she also noticed her period was more than one week late.Without any hesitation
