DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT?

ELOISE'S POV“Eloise.” Klein calls after the red dragon exits the room, leaving just the three of us.And yes, I will keep referring to her as the red dragon. I would have addressed her by her name if she had had the courtesy to introduce herself to me before bringing me here.“Please come over and have a seat.” Klein urges because I have not moved an inch from the door since I stepped in and saw them. My gaze does a quick scan of the room and falls on Jasmine who’s smiling from molar to molar. Her favorite time is when she’s beside my husband.And there I was, feeling reluctant to get Klein involved in this issue, but Jasmine here has already thought it through and acted. Sharp girl.“I apologize for the unexpected summon, but Jasmine reported something to me that needs to be addressed immediately.” He explains as I take the seat on his right and stare at him blankly.“And what’s that?”“She told me you plan to write a complaint to the Director of Affairs of PHOROMA because your proj

“I have come to take my wife home.”

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE.ELOISE’S POV.Jasmine’s threat lives rent free in my head for the entire day. A single second has not ticked by without her words replaying in my mind and even though I don’t want to admit it, I’m a bit shaken. She said something about me always getting in the way of her plans. What bloody plans is she always cooking up and for what reason. I know her main objective is to kick me out of Klein’s life and take my place in his life, but her tone and the look in her eyes when she dished out that threat spoke volumes about the horrors she’s prepared to cast in my way.I need to watch out for her.“Mrs. Wesley.” Shannelle’s familiar voice pulls me out of my drowning thoughts and when I look up at her, I notice she’s carrying her handbag, ready to leave. It’s closing time.“Yeah.”“Nadine and I are leaving.”“Oh…” I exclaim softly as I look over at Nadine who’s also set to leave. She flashes me a small smile and waves me goodbye and I do the same before looking back at Sh

"ARE YOU SCARED OF ME?'

ELOISE’S POV.“Why do you seem so shocked?” He asks with a small smile and his voice sounds like his throat is coated with honey.“I uh…” I croak. “I’m not shocked, I’m just… I’m just surprised because this has never happened before. That’s all.”“Surprised.” He mumbles as he comes closer to me and only stops when we are a few inches away from each other. We are standing way too close to each other and it’s getting me embarrassed because we are not alone in this room, but he doesn’t seem to care about that. Shannelle and Nadine will not let me rest with this particular act of his until this month runs out. “If you’re surprised by the fact that I’m coming to take you home from your office, that means I have not been doing a very good job as your husband. I will start doing this more often so you get used to it.”“No.” I quickly deny, shaking my head. “You don’t have to do that. We can always meet in the parking lot like we always do. I’m satisfied with that plan.” I try to explain and

HE DEFENDED HER

ELOISE’S POV.The sound of the smack reverberates like a gunshot throughout the living room, sending shockwaves down my spine that almost render me crippled. My head stays in the bent position and when I struggle to open my eyes again, all I see is shiny little stars twinkling in the darkness before me. It takes a few bats of my eyelids before my vision starts clearing up again.“Mother!” Klein thunders as places a protective hand over my shoulder and gently pushes me to stand behind him. “What the hell did you just do?” He sounds very angry, but his mother doesn’t even flinch. My hand is carefully massaging the stinging spot she just assaulted and I’m actually surprised by the fact that I haven’t burst into tears yet and I’m not even feeling as to do that. I am angry and if looks could kill, my mother-in-law would be six feet right now.“I just smacked some sense into her. I hope it settles in that thick head of hers and that she learns to use it from now on.” She fires and I suck in

ARROGANCE

ELOISE POV.“Mrs. Wesley.” A voice calls through and I look up from my computer and my gaze meets Nadine who is standing before my cubicle in a very professional manner. “It’s nine thirty am.” She quietly announces and I look at my watch to confirm and it’s indeed, nine thirty am. I flash her a small smile.“Thank you, Nadine.” I say and turn to Kacey who is typing away on his laptop. “Kacey.” He looks at me. “Are you done proofreading the complaint I sent to you?” I ask, rising to my feet and stepping out of my cubicle and he does the same. We both meet at the center of the office where he hands me a brown envelope and I stare at him with creased brows, utterly confused.“It’s been proofread and printed. You just have to give the order and I will have it submitted for you.” He says, stretching his hand again for me to hand him the envelope back, but I hold it behind me and shake my head.I only asked him to proofread it, but Kacey being the sweet and helpful person he is, has proofre

ARE YOU READY?

ELOISE’S POV.“Welcome home, Mrs. Wesley.” The butler greets me as I step into the living room and hand her my stuff to take upstairs. “Thank you.” I say and she leaves. As I walk further into the room, my phone starts ringing and a smile forms on my face when I check the caller ID and see that it’s Maeve calling. I instantly answer the call and press the phone against my ear. “Yes Ma’am.”“Ah yeah! Her voice sounds like honey now because she’s about to go on a vacation with her husband.” Maeve taunts and I burst into laughter as I resume my walk towards the staircase.“Is that jealousy I sense in your tone?” I ask playfully and she scoffs.“Jealousy my ass. There’s no way I would be jealous of a married woman. Do you have any idea how much freedom I have as a single woman? Plus, I don’t have an old witch called a mother-in-law breathing fire down my neck every time she sets her eyes on me.” She fires back and my laughter intensifies. She’s right.If there’s anyone who should be jea

"YOU ASKED FOR THIS"

ELOISE’S POV.“Eloise, I cannot believe you made me stay on call with you as you shaved intimate parts of your body and showered." Maeve laments over the phone.“Don’t be such a drama queen, Maeve. We both know each other’s naked bodies as well as we know ours and we’ve done worse than shaving together at the same time. This is nothing.”“Yeah, that was when you didn’t belong to someone else.”“I don’t belong to anyone. I belong to myself!” I argue and I know she just rolled her eyes on the other end.“Yeah, right. I dare you to say that to the hearing of Klein Reece Wesley.”“You’re a nutcase.”“Yeah, whatever. Just make sure not to be shy when the time comes for you to seduce your man. After all this torture you’ve put me through, I will be expecting some juicy details on how your first vacation night with your husband was spent.”“Eww! I will not discuss my sex life with you.” She snorts.“Says the girl who rang my phone at three am in the morning after losing her virginity to her

THE PENTHOUSE.

ELOISE’S POV.“No way!” I exclaim in disbelief the moment the car is opened and I take a peek of the premises. Excitement is coursing through my veins like a raging river as I step out of the car and ogle the surroundings. It’s dark, but I know exactly where we are.Unbelievable!This is unbelievable!When Klein refused to disclose our vacation destination and called it a surprise every time I asked, I had no idea it would be this. I knew he was going to take me to some exotic sight-seeing facility somewhere out of the country. I did not expect this man to bring me to my favorite recreational spot here in the country. My father used to bring me all the time since I was little and even before I married Klein, this was my to-go spot when I needed some time away from the world and its harsh realities.“Do you like it?” Klein asks, stopping beside me.“Like it? I love it! How… How did you know about this place? The smile on your face tells me you were expecting me to react this way. How d

'HE CARES ABOUT HER"

JASMINE’S POV.“Klein!” I almost scream in relief the moment the call connects. I shoot his mother, who’s sitting beside me, an excited grin which she reciprocates before I turn back to focus on the call.“Hello Jasmine.” The sound of his deep, gravelly voice calling my name almost makes me moan. This is the voice Eloise wants to have all to herself for the rest of her life. I’m only going to let that happen over my dead body. Klein will be mine! It’s just a matter of time.“Klein…” I call yet again, this time around in a softer tone. “You’ve been ignoring my calls." I say in such a small voice that it almost makes me sound like I’m crying. I hear him let out a small sigh on the other end of the phone. I know I frustrate him with my shenanigans, but I’m his Jasmine. He could never grow tired of me. Ever!“Jasmine, where is this coming from?”“You still haven’t come to check up on me even after knowing that I’m not feeling too well.” I say pouting.“I haven’t done that yet because I’ve

“YOU ARE MY BABY.”

ELOISE’S POV.“Is this where we’ll be eating?” I ask Klein as we both head over to the sitting area of the living room where dinner has been set on the center table.“Eating on the dinning table feels too formal. I want us to have a casual, fun dinner, that’s why I asked the staff to set our meals here.” He calmly explains and my smiles grows wider.Indeed, eating on the dinning feels too formal. It’s like eating at a dinner party with all his business associates and I only ever play with my food during those dinners. I’m happy he did this instead.“I hope you like it.” Concern flashes in his eyes as he eagerly inquires and my heart melts completely. He’s so considerate, it makes me want to hug and kiss him right now.“It’s perfect. I love the idea of a fun and casual dinner.” I say with a smile that nearly splits my face into to halves.“Cool.” He says, taking a seat on a couch while I go over to the one opposite his and sit on it. When my gaze meets his again, the frown on his face
