‎CLEOPATRA'S POV ‎‎I glanced up at Lorenzo, my vision turning red with worry. ‎“Right now?" I doubted, my voice trembling with unease, as I scanned the perimeter. ‎I should have known, recently Lorenzo has been making the most ridiculous demands, why did I expect this to be any different.‎“Why not?" He asked, with a small smirk. “You got your price here so I guess I deserve same, don't you think?"‎I cursed underneath my breath, why does this dude have to be so damn immoral.‎‎Letting out a deep breath. I moved closer, caressing his cheek, as I leaned in for a kiss. The sooner I had this dealt with, the quicker I could move on with my life. This is the last time I am going to play any stupid game with him.‎Closing my eyes, I captured his lips in a fierce kiss. And as always, his lips were out of this world, but just when I was about to deepen the kiss, a voice boomed across the backyard.‎“Greetings, newly weds.”‎Stunned, I immediately pulled away. My face reddening from embar

‎CLEOPATRA'S POV ‎‎You know the thing people always say about being with the devil you know rather than the angel you don't know. Well... I am not quite sure I want to have anything in common with a devil, I will rather take my chances with an angel I don't know, who knows he might actually be a heaven's sent. ‎“Angel... I mean Lorenzo, Why are we stopping?” I doubted the moment Lorenzo's car came to a stop in front of a multipurpose supermarket.‎Lorenzo turned to me, his expression doubtful as he asked, “Angel???”‎‎My heart skipped a beat. Letting out a nervous laugh, I scratched the back of my head. “Sorry, I was just thinking aloud," I informed, I simply don't understand why my mouth and my brain can't seem to cooperate. My mouth just seems to be betraying every other organ in my body. If I had my way I will stitch my lips, but I fear my butt would talk in the event of that happening.‎He smiled a little, gently caressing the back of my hand as he said. “I honestly don't mi

CLEOPATRA'S POV I stared up at Ivy, my husband's best friend supposed girlfriend, my mind welling up with confusion, as this some kind of a bold declaration of love for my husband, or was this woman high on some cheap crap.“Was that supposed to be a treat,” I doubted scanning her face for answers.She stepped forward, her eyes daring as she said, “That is a warning. Lorenzo was mine first, and I won't back down till I get what is mine." I froze for a couple of seconds, this wasn't the first time she made that claim. Was she in anyway Lorenzo's ex, who was in some kind of a relationship with his best friend. I hope not, cause if that was the case. That would be disgusting.“Hold up. I'm confused isn't Drew your man?" I asked, trying to clarify my doubts, before mistakenly speaking out of terms like I always do.“Drew might be a lot of things, but being my man is an insult to me. We are just friends. Lorenzo is the only man I have, and as such I have to protect him from every and al

CLEOPATRA'S POV “No..." I yelled, waking up from bed in one swift motion. Sweat breaking from my forehead with reckless abandon. It was all a dream, Caitlin wasn't back, and Lorenzo hadn't chosen her yet. Telling out a deep breathe, I stabilized my breathing before speaking.“Lorenzo??? Babe... Where are you? " I called out to him, my eyes scanning in room in entirety. No answer was heard. He gave me no response. Guess he was still offended about how last night discussion went. In total honesty I couldn't blame him, I too over reacted, I told him to drink the coffee and still went ahead to get angry at him for drinking it.“Lorenzo," I called out once more, slamming open door after door but yet no sign of him. Bet he went down stairs for a cup of coffee. That man was a coffee addict. It was no wonder he was grumpy all the time. Swiftly, I took a bath and rushed downstairs. There was no way in hell I was going to let that crafty woman, get close to my husband. ‘You mean your si

CLEOPATRA'S POV I strided quietly behind Drew, as we made our way around the gigantic eucalyptus tree for the umpteenth time. “Stop! I am not going any longer," I declared, my tone stern. He turned to me, a confused frown engraved on his face. “Why are you stopping? We haven't reached the top yet."I glanced at him, my blood boiling as I tabled my complaints. “ Is that even a question? We are lost can't you see that?" His lips fell into a small frown but still he managed to maintain his calm demeanor. “We are not lost. We just took a wrong turn that's all," He dared to lie once more but this time I had had enough and would be damned if I let him use me one more. “Really?" I asked and he nodded. “If that is the case, show me the right way then," I demanded, folding my arms over my chest. My eyes peeled on him with suspicion. I have had a feeling that we were lost from the moment we entered the forest without an escort. I had wanted to question him about it but his confidence was
