Emery’s pov. “I’ll be right back,” I told Austin who encircled his arms around mine. I followed behind Brielle , we moved through the crowd to get to the bar which was at a corner of the hallway and she asked for a distraction to spike the drinks. She ordered four drinks from the bartender, in order to avoid suspicion she has to serve drinks to the four of us. “My daughter, can I speak with you for a moment?” She was shocked as she was in the process of spiking the drinks when her father tapped her from behind . I’m sure it’s about what she told me before.“Sure,” she said while handing over the tray with four drinks to me as she hid the remnants behind her. She pointed to the one I’m supposed to serve to Lucas in a hurry and signaled me to go ahead which made me leave. I got to where the rest of the family were standing as there was a spotlight on them but I forgot which of the drinks she spiked. Omg!!! Anyways, I should play along. I’ll just have to turn it around for Lu

Chapter twelve

Emery’s pov. I raised my head in a swift manner and pushed him to lay on bed—it’s time for my moment. I switched to suck his dick, I sucked in and out deep to my throat. It made him moan endlessly. I surrendered as he grabbed my hair , allowing him to turn me and raise me up from my waist. I was backing him right now. He rubbed and fingered my clit from behind before slowly pushing his member into me till I felt it in my stomach. I let out a breath and clung onto the sheets. He flung my hair back as a hold, at the same time ramming in and out of me. “Are you coming already?”“Hmmm…!” I was unable to utter a word , I instead whimpered in a high-pitched note. My brain was only processing the amount of pleasure I was going through now, it was emanating from my very core and permeating every cell of my body. He increased his pace , while bringing one of his hands to my clit, rubbed it in a circular motion as he fucked me hard. My mouth was forced open in a scream, drawing t

Chapter thirteen

Emery’s pov. I woke up to a strange heaviness that settled in my chest. It was both from discomfort and guilt that didn’t quite match the joy that should have come after an engagement. As usual, I did my morning routine that includes brushing and showering. It won’t be bad to explore Reynold’s abode today, at least to know more about where I live and I need something fresh—air.The morning dew filled the air as I strolled through the estate. Ignoring the servants, I allowed my feet to lead me till I found myself at the garden that stretched behind the estate like a secret world of green. I sniffed through the flowers, allowing calmness to wash through me till I heard footsteps.“Emery.” A voice called out as he approached me. I turned to see it was Lucas . He walked towards me in a fast and intimidating way. What could be his purpose? Is he not aware that we’re at his house? He drew closer and before I could react, he gripped me by the wrist enough to jolt me away. “Will you

Chapter fourteen

Emery’s pov. She has always been my whole world , my strength and my anchor . Even in the absence of my father, she tried earnestly to make me not to feel it—she gave me everything even when she had nothing. My mom being on the verge of death is the scariest thing that happened to me and the hospital bills were impossible but saying yes to be engaged to someone I don't love resolves the bills. To allow her to die wasn’t an option, rather I'll smile through the lie , wear the ring and keep breathing .Today I'll be leaving to see her. I'll hold her hand before the surgery and remind her that she’s not alone. She must have missed me this few months of her not seeing me. My toe knuckles turned white as it poked out of the bedsheet and my nerves were on high end at the thought of my mother—i’m eager to see her . As usual, I did my morning routine and left to meet Austin. “Where are you off to in a hurry?” Lucas called out as I was about to enter the elevator. “Why do you care

Chapter fifteen

Emery’s pov.I creaked the door open. My mom laid in bed looking pale with a dry mouth, an oxygen mask covering her nose and the beeping monitor provided a steady rhythm in the atmosphere. “Mom!” I called out with my eyes already wailed up with tears. Her sense organs became alert the instant she heard my call. “Emery,” she said in a low but hoarse voice. I quickened my steps and next we were holding each other tightly and wailing together. It was a special moment.“Mom…how’re you feeling?” I asked after we released each other from our hold. Austin was already standing at the foot of the bed in silence, admiring the warmth and love between i and my mother. “The sight of my precious daughter makes me feel better,” she grinned a bit as she stroked her hand on my cheeks.“I missed you,” she sighed. “I missed you more,” I replied. “Who is he?” She asked, pointing in Austin's direction. “Is he the one who has been managing my hospital bills?” She asked again. “Ehm,yes…Mum.” I s

Chapter sixteen

Emery’s pov. The adrenaline that rushed through me as soon as the doctor came through the door of the operating room a few hours after we came back from the cafeteria made me spring up from the chair to approach him , my nerves stood on high end. “Doctor, h…how was it?” I gasped for air. “Calm down, it’s a success but she needs time to recover,” he sighed. Thank God!“Okay, Please can I see her now?” I pleaded. My anticipation increased, I want to know how she’s feeling.“Yes you will, but she needs to be moved to her ward first,”They rolled her out of the operating room to take her to her ward and I and Austin followed suit. She was asleep,the nurse suggested we allow her to rest for sometime because she was on IV medication and sedative. I was restless as I waited for mom to wake up. I had to pace back and forth the ward every two minutes to ease my nerves.Austin was seated on the chair as he watched me with his arms folded and his brows knit together in concern. “You ne

Chapter seventeen

Emery’s pov. My fingers fidgeted as I moved it round my necklace and I stared vividly at myself . “Could it be—”“Oh,fuck…no!” I thought. Despite the fact that Austin is waiting for me, I need to figure out what the fuck is wrong with me. I retouched my look before clicking the bathroom door open . “Emery, what’s wrong?” Austin was already waiting in front of the bathroom for me . “I feel fine. Maybe the hospital smell kind of hit me weird.” But that’s not true, I definitely reacted to the smell of his perfume—but why? Deep down, my mind is spinning. “That makes two of us,” he shrugged. “But it sure hits you hard. You look pale,” he smirked. “I didn’t mean to worry you, I’m okay now.” I avoided his eyes for a beat by straightening my blouse. “It’s fine.” He didn’t look convinced though. I can’t tell him I reacted to his perfume. I have to figure it out myself. “Can you do me a favor? Go back to mom’s ward—I’ll join you in a few minutes. I just need to check something rig

Chapter eighteen

Lucas’s pov. Tension pulled at my muscles as I saw her leave in a hurry yesterday. Moreover, Austin told me about the leave, but he didn’t specify the reason .What could be the urgent reason? I was bothered to the extent that I had to hire a private investigator to follow her up and feed me all the details. Feigning a smile on my face to cover up for my worry, I responded to the greetings of my staff till I reached my office where I pulled off my jacket and sat down to call the private investigator for information. The phone rang once before the investigator answered. “Hello boss?” “Yeah, go ahead,” I ordered, running a hand through my hair. “They went to the hospital at Birmingham to see her mother and to consent to the surgery. Austin was with her throughout to console her and they left together,” he said in a sync. Hmmm…I massaged the back of my neck. A sprint thought burned inside me with the sting of wanting what I couldn’t claim. Are they bonding already? “Is that all

Chapter nineteen

Emery’s pov. I entered the restroom and banged the door behind me to let it all out. I’m pissed. I’m pissed because I’m carrying his child and I can’t tell him it’s his or tell anyone I’m pregnant yet.Should I abort the child? I shook my head, ‘No…that’s not an option, mum already warned me about it’ . My Aunt died while aborting a child. I shouldn’t risk it . The only solution is to make Austin the father of this baby. I took deep breaths, permitting air into my lungs and allowing myself to feel the burn as I held it in. I exhaled and the first tear broke free, giving room for the flow. With my palms firmly on my knees, I took a few more shaky breaths as I tried to pull myself together, but the tears kept coming and I allowed it. After a while, I straightened up and walked towards the mirror. My hazel eyes were all red so I had to splash some water on my face. I brushed my hair back with my hands. I took a few minutes to compose myself until I was ready to get back to w

Chapter twenty

Emery’s pov. I had informed Magda beforehand to prepare our bedroom in a romantic way. She sent me pictures and videos till I confirmed that it was to my taste. I told her to add more red rose petals and a bucket of chilled champagne next to the meal she prepared. I told her to make shrimp and grits with extra cheese. She made the bed in canopy form and kept a box of chocolates and towels folded in the shape of swans at the base of the bed. I instructed her to light the scented candles as soon as I messaged her which she did. We got home and as usual Austin opened the car door for me.“Ladies,first,” he gestured with his hand as we got to the elevator. I went close to him and rested my hands on his shoulders, “You’re right, but you wouldn’t want to ruin the surprise, will you?” “Okay, fine. Do as you please,” he sighed. I reached out to the handkerchief in my handbag and tied it around his eyes before whispering, “Trust me.” An unexpected pang hit my chest. Can I do this? Yes
