CHAPTER FORTY ONE

JESSICA'S POV.My mood had shifted for some reason. I was suddenly more positive than I'd been the night before, after I'd taken a shower. As I got dressed, I made a decision to dress up a little more than usual. I wanted to look good, even if it was just for myself. I put on a bright yellow sundress and a pair of sandals, and took a little extra time to style my hair. Gianna had inspired me to try harder on my appearance and after the way I saw the way I looked on my wedding day, there was no way I was going back to how I used to look. I was going to take a it step by step. When Daniel walked into the room from the bathroom, he did a double-take. "Wow, you look amazing," he said, a hint of surprise in his voice. I did my best to not stare at the wet t-shirt stretched across his shoulders or the short shorts he was wearing. At least he was wearing a t-shirt. I didn't know how I'd have felt if he came out shirtless. "Thanks," I said, feeling a little self-conscious. "I just felt l

CHAPTER FORTY TWO

DANIEL'S POV.I woke up that morning with a mix of grogginess and anticipation. Today was the day Jessica and I were going to travel to Hawaii for our "honeymoon". As I got off the makeshift bed I'd made on the floor, I stretched my sore back and limbs and went straight for coffee. After I got my caffeine urge settled, I glanced towards Jessica's side and saw her still sleeping soundly. Our flight was by ten in the morning, she couldn't be sleeping this soundly when we had to get ready. I went over to the bed planning to wake her up—maybe even shake her a little—but then the peaceful expression I saw on her face stopped me in motion. Jessica looked young and innocent as she slept. It was at this moment all her features became very visible to me, and I must say they were very lovely features. Beautiful and luscious hair, small button nose that was so cute it hurt, heart shaped lips that I hadn't forgotten how they felt against mine, and the icing on the cake, her soft and kissable l

CHAPTER FORTY THREE

JESSICA'S POV.Stepping off the plane, the warm tropical air enveloped me, tinged with a hint of salty ocean breeze. The excitement buzzed in my chest as we made our way through the bustling terminal, hand-in-hand. I'd suppose Daniel was holding me just incase anyone knew us here like he's said. His dad had connections here. As we walked towards the car rental area, Daniel turned to me with a mischievous grin. "Ready for some fun in Hawaii, Mrs Snider."Mrs Snider. That was my name now? I hadn't even thought of it that, that was going to be what people will refer me to. I decided to play along just for fun. "Absolutely, Mr. Snider. Let's make this honeymoon unforgettable.""Okay wife," Daniel chuckled and the sound made my chest tighten. His laugh was amazing and contagious. Wait, did I just compliment his laugh?That was it. I'd gone mad. Daniel picked up our rental car, a sleek convertible that looked like it cost a fortune and I got in feeling overwhelmed at all the luxury I'd b

CHAPTER FORTY FOUR

JESSICA'S POV.The next day, I got up to the soft rays of morning sunlight streaming through the curtains. Stretching out my limbs, I shook off the remnants of sleep and yawned. It was the first official day of our honeymoon, and I couldn't help but wonder what it'll be like when I faced Daniel. After freshening up in the fancy bathroom, I slipped into a comfortable sundress and made my way downstairs. As I entered the kitchen, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, mingling with the tantalizing scent of something delicious cooking on the stovetop.There, standing at the counter, was Daniel, looking handsome as ever—a mischievous smile playing on his lips. His tousled hair and casual attire gave him a relaxed and approachable vibe. It was a stark contrast to the formal and reserved demeanor he had initially presented during our meeting."Morning, wife. Slept well?" he greeted me cheerfully. His tone was teasing but my heart skipped a beat."Good morning, Daniel," I replie

CHAPTER FORTY FIVE

DANIEL'S POV. I sat alone at the mini bar, my eyes fixed on the distant horizon where the waves crashed against the sandy shore. The sun had begun its descent, casting a warm golden glow over the beach house that Jessica and I had been staying for three days—in for our honeymoon. But my mind was preoccupied, my thoughts consumed by Jessica and all they things she'd been making me feel. I couldn't understand how easily she'd gone from being O attractive, to being the object of all my desires. I knew I was being cheesy, but that was just the truth. There wasn't a day that passed that I didn't think of her. And now the thought that was plaguing me was the guy we had met at the cafe before embarking on this trip, Alex. I'd overhead her talking to him on the phone, and from what she was saying, he had touched down Hawaii yesterday and wanted to see her. I knew it wasn't my business, but I defended my jealousy with the fact that we were supposed to act like a real couple throughout this va

CHAPTER FORTY SIX

DANIEL'S POV.Today had been amazing. The best one I'd had in a while. And strangely enough, it was all thanks to Alex. He'd turned out to be an interesting guy and a great buddy. After the mini bar, we'd headed to his rented penthouse (turns out, Alex was a rich kid just like me)which was a short drive away from the beach house, and engaged in a two hour long game of "call of duty." Though Alex had succeeded in humiliating me after beating me five times in a row, I had to say that game had been the most fun I'd had in months—cooking with Jessica that day was a close second. Speaking of Jessica, I remembered as I scrolled through my phone in my room that I needed to inform her about the party tomorrow. I hurriedly put on a t-shirt and some deodorant because apparently, I was now a weirdo who cared so much about impressing his contract wife. As I got to the hallway, I heard the unmistakable sound of country music coming from Jessica''s room. When I got closer, I noticed that the doo

CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN

JESSICA'S POV.Things were going well.Really well for now. I mean, I'd made friends asides Julia and Daniel and I had come to an understanding. We weren't bickering or wanting to chop each other's heads off, instead we were kind of in my opinion in the flirting phase. I knew the reasonable thing to do was not to interpret Daniel's friendliness as flirting, but I couldn't help how my heart felt. How was I supposed to believe that his eyes lingering on mine longer than he used to, and how I caught him smiling at me more times than I could count recently—was just him being friendly and not flirty? So, in essence what I'm saying is what more could I've asked for? Things were going great. All we needed to do for this agreement to work was to keep up this friendly or flirty energy without it ever growing into anything else. Any other thing would've make this marriage unbearable. From what I'd experienced so far with this—we were better off as friends than enemies. I got out of bed with a

CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT

JESSICA'S POV.Things didn't go as planned. I'd wanted to be the one coming down the stairs gracefully as Daniel watched with his eyes bulging out of the sockets, but no. Daniel wasn't downstairs when I got there. Instead things happened in the opposite. I was the one who stood with a dry throat as he sauntered down the stairs with his handsome face in a smirk. He was dressed in a black t-shirt and very dark denim jeans that hugged his thighs perfectly, and his hair was bunched into a black hat that had "King" written on it. The cap was right. He looked like a king, even in this simple attire. Oh God. I was done for. "Take a picture, it'll last longer," Daniel says once he reaches me, and I roll my eyes. "I'll pass," I crossed my arms and watched as his eyes followed the movement before he cleared his throat and looked away. Okay. Awkward."You ready?" He wiped his palms on his jeans, starring right at the wall instead of me. "Yeah I am," I touched my hair to make sure it was in

CHAPTER FORTY NINE

DANIEL'S POV.Jessica had really gotten on my nerves. I walked away from the party to the balcony with my blood boiling. Just a few minutes of going to get a drink with Alex and she'd already found a random asshole to dance with, even when I'd specially warned her not to do that. And then what did she make me look like in front of everyone? A jealous asshole husband who couldn't put a leash on his wife and stormed away like a jerk.Shit. That made me angry, but you know what made me more angry? It was seeing Jessica in that asshole's hands as they laughed and danced together. It wasn't even like she was really mine or anything, but I felt mad with fury anyways. I really wished it was just my stupid male ego acting up and not anything else, because at this point my feelings confused the hell out of me. I was suddenly transported back to the scene where I stood at the edge of the crowded room, my heart pounding with a mix of anger and jealousy as I watched Jessica dancing with that guy

CHAPTER FIFTY

DANIEL'S POV.As I walked away from Jessica, the sting of our argument still fresh in my mind, I couldn't help but feel a mix of frustration and guilt. I had come to this party with the intention of having a good time, but now everything had changed. I needed to find Alex and let him know that we would be leaving, but as I scanned the room, he was nowhere to be seen.I made my way back to the main area of the party, the music pounding in my ears, drowning out my thoughts. The room was now filled with a sea of people—making me wonder just how many people Alex knew—their laughter and chatter blending together into a cacophony of sound. I felt a sense of detachment as I stood there, an observer amidst the chaos.My eyes darted around, searching for any sign of Alex. I noticed groups of friends talking and laughing, couples dancing and swaying to the rhythm of the music. But Alex was nowhere to be found. I felt a knot tightening in my stomach, a sense of unease settling over me. Why wasn'
