Ethan's POV “Damn it” I curse hitting my steering. I shouldn't have tried to kiss Alexia. I did not plan it. I only wanted to help unbuckle her seat belt, but when my eyes met her beautiful blues I was wholly captivated. I couldn't look away, and those gorgeous heart-shaped lips, I couldn't resist their lure. My mind keeps replaying that moment in the car. If Alexia had not turned away, I would have gone on with it. Her rejection hurts this time. I thought Alexia was already warming up to me these past few weeks. She has always rejected my advances in the past, way before we signed this contract marriage, but this time feels different.I have always had a crush on her since the moment she became an employee at Blackwoods company and all the times I flirted with her, she always rebuffed me, but this particular rejection stinks because I could have sworn Alexia had started feeling something for me. I have noticed how her eyes seem to follow me when I enter a room. Or maybe it's just

Alexia's POV Ethan did not come home last night. I arrived home a few minutes past 7:00 pm as the distance from my house to the mansion was about an hour's drive. On getting home, I was expecting to meet Ethan in the house, but he still wasn't back. I stayed up late into the night waiting for him to come, but he didn't. I tried calling him but the call keeps going to his voicemail. I left several messages for him but he hasn't responded to any of them yet.The only silver lining in all is that Linda wasn't also at the mansion by the time I got there. Ethan's Mom, I was told, retired to bed early. Thank God for small mercies. I don't think I would have had the energy for their drama tonight.I just want to explain and probably apologize for what happened in the car. I help but feel guilty about what happened in the car. I know Ethan has barely slept in our room since we got married, however these past couple of days, he started to put in more effort by spending time with me and now I

Alexia's POV The elevator ride was a quiet one because none of the people who entered were going to my floor and not being a social person, I haven't ever engaged in any form of conversation except for the conventional greeting. Immediately, the elevator stops at my floor; I step out, heading to my office. I ran into Bridget as soon as I turned to the corner leading to my office. She is standing beside a handsome guy. I think he works in the IT department of Blackwoods, though I am not too certain, being that I have only seen him passing, but we haven't spoken before. They appear super close and extra friendly. Not wanting to intrude, I decided to just walk past. However, Bridget, noticing my presence, waves me over excitedly. “Hey, Bridget!” I said by way of greeting “Hi Alexia! This is Ken from the IT department” she said. I was right about his department after all. Ken gives me a charming smile. With a smile like that combined with those cute dimples, I bet ladies will be f

The first thing I noticed the moment I arrived at Blackwood's mansion was Ethan's car parked in the garage. Ethan is home I thought, sighing in relief. I have this sudden urge to go to him so as to be sure that he is truly alright as Ryan claimed.After thanking Jeff for the ride and bidding him good night, I walked into the mansion. In my haste to reach Ethan, I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings until I almost plowed into Ethan's Mom who just happened to be standing with Matilda at the passage leading to Ethan's room. It is Matilda’s who called out a quick “watch out Alexia!” that halted my movement. It appears she and Mrs Blackwoods had been discussing something and it seems I just interrupted whatever conversation they were engaged in.“Good Evening Mrs Blackwoods! I'm for almost bumping into you, I wasn't watching where I was going to” I apologized.“Of course you were not looking at where you are going. How can you possibly be this dumb. Which is the reason I am still b

Alexia's POV Ethan drove us to work this morning. The drive was relatively beautiful except for his driving like a maniac. We arrived at Blackwood's company a bit late and as Ethan and I walked into the company together, many of the staff who saw us coming in together, turned to stare at us, whispering amongst themselves as they pointed at us. It dawned on me that this is the first time Ethan and I have come to work together since we got married. Little wonder the whole office seems to be abuzz with it. I peaked a look at Ethan to gauge his reaction to the whispering and staring to our walking together. He appears relaxed and unaffected by the attention. I, on the other hand , feel like dying of embarrassment. The rational part of my brain knows I shouldn't feel embarrassed by the attention, after all as far as the world knows, Ethan and I married and it's quite normal for couples to walk together; despite knowing this, I still can't help myself. I struggle to match Ethan's lo
