All Chapters of End the Stupid Bet, Win My Stage: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Mason walked into Gianna’s apartment to find her already waiting for him.“Your mistress had a long day today and she’s fucking tired.” She purred as they headed to her bedroom.He turned to face her.She looked tired but still so sexy.“Is there anything I can do to help?”She began to unfasten the buttons on her white shirt.“Get some towels from the bathroom. There’s a bottle of oil in there, bring it out as well.”He nodded and walked off.The stack of towels was easy enough to find and they had hint of luxury in them.But the oil was hidden away behind the mirrored door of the bathroom cabinet.He brought it close to my nose.Coconut scented.Mason returned to find her removing her black lace bra leaving such a stunning sight that made me pause a moment or two before entering the bedroom.“Put the big towel on the bed so I can lie on it.”He nodded as she took the smaller one from him which she hung around her waist.Mason spread the towel on the bed and she laid on it.“You aren

*CADEN*Two days after Jerome’s arrest, I got a call from Mason in the early hours of the morning.“Jerome’s dead. He was poisoned.”Alarmed, I raced to the police station to confirm that myself.I was beyond shocked to really find out that he had really passed.“How?”I asked Mason.He looked around the police officers, carefully. It was obvious he didn’t know who to trust in here.He gestured at me and we walked out of the building.“They said they’ve checked the CCTV. It seems someone had served him food which was poisoned but they can’t identify who as the footage between 6:pm to 9;pm was cleared out.”“It seems his employer had a police officer working for him.”I pointed out.Mason nodded.”It only means we’re dealing with an high profile person because an ordinary person cannot get the police to do something like this.”“Vanessa.”I reminded.“When we did our investigations on her, we just found her to be a really spoilt brat and the daughter of business mogul, Timothy Brown. For n

*ALORA*“You look so beautiful, honey.” My mother said to me as she and three women made last minutes tweak on my wedding dress.I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection.The dress was exquisitely simple.It was a strapless dress, and it fell in a simple fitted silken sheath to the floor. Tiny diamonds sewn into a lace overlay sparkled and shone when I moved. And on the back of my head was an antique silver clip which held the long veil in place.Leave it to my mom to choose a very gorgeous dress.She was glowing with happiness, and her happiness was contagious, it made doing this feel worth it.Joan, who was my chief brides maid walked closer to me.“Are you sure about this?”I already told her the real reason behind the marriage but she still wasn’t in support of it.I nodded.If I wasn’t so much of an over-thinker, maybe if I was getting married for love instead, then I’ll feel the kind of happiness brides felt on their wedding.The happiness wasn’t there, perhaps th

*ALORA*The congregation started to clap as we walked out of the church, I managed to paste a fake smile on my face, nodding to people I knew were smiling to my face, but I was already dissecting every minute of the ceremony, my dress and the prospects of the success of this marriage.We would be the topic of coffee mornings all over the capital for days, weeks to come.When we emerged from the church, all my thoughts scattered. A barrage of press awaited us, the camera flashed almost blinding me, and a huge cheering crowd had gathered across the road.I smiled and waved at everyone.After a few minutes, Caden led me down the steps of the huge cathedral and to a waiting car, handing me carefully into the back seat before joining me.As we pulled away, I saw the rest of the wedding guests start to spill out of the church into the heaving crowds.I realized I was shaking like a leaf.I had so many questions, I glanced at Caden and he was leaning against the head rest with his eyes close

*ALORA*I wore my panties and camisole inside the bathroom after bathing.When I came out, I found Caden lying on the bed.“Why are you on the bed?”He glanced up at me.”Where should I be?”“I don’t think it’s proper for us to share the same bed.”“You could go sleep on the couch.”He offered.My jaw dropped. “And I thought you had a bit of gentlemanliness in you.”He scoffed.”I am not sleeping on the couch for a week, Alora.”Caden declared.I eyed him, I wasn’t in the mood to argue tonight.I grabbed a pillow and placed on the center of the bed to demarcate it.I laid on the bed and closed my eyes, I didn’t feel sleepy.I turned on different sides of the bed, trying to find a comfortable position and maybe sleep.Yet, I couldn’t sleep.And then I realized.It wasn’t that the bed was uncomfortable or anything.It was my body.I was hot and bothered.Fuck! No!If I was alone, maybe I would have touched myself.But I didn’t even have the zeal to touch myself right now.Instead, I swallow
