Payback Ch 30

This is not your typical CEO & secretary story. The roles are actually switched. Candice Hunter is a very free spirited lady, she lives as if it’s her last day on earth. While others are driven with motivation, she is driven by her motto, “a slut is the female version of a male player.” She however, isn’t a player but rather the game creator. Her game is simple, get under the guy that catches your eye. She has never failed that rule for every guy she has every liked, she has slept with. And she never, ever catches feelings. The only stable relationship she has ever kept is school. Now fresh out of varsity and ready to kickstart a permanent job as an assistant to the CEO of the biggest marketing company, Candice was not ready for the task awaiting her; Dark chocolate, well-built, intelligent and very handsome man behind the CEO desk, Delroy Zwide. Not only will the thirty-year-old capture her eyes but also her heart from afar. But Candice is not one to fall so she will need to strike fast and get him into bed, the twist? Sweeter than white chocolate because Delroy Zwide is a 30 year-old that has never had any sexual experience because he is a Christian. Will Candice be able to tame the CEO and get him to drop his pants or will she lose at her own game by catching feelings? Read to find out.

For seven years, I love Cody Rummish, clinging to his promise—once his sister-in-law, Luna Briche, conceives, our ordeal ends, and we finally begin our married life. But reality betrays me. Just months after moving into his home, Cody slips into Luna's bedroom 88 times—starting with once a month, now nearly one or two visits daily. Every night, I sit in the downstairs living room, counting the minutes, clutching a flicker of unrealistic hope. As the sole heir after his twin brother's fatal plane crash, Cody inherits not just power and wealth but also, seamlessly, his brother's widow, Luna. After the 88th visit, Luna announces her pregnancy. But instead of Cody honoring his promise, a public declaration shatters me—he will formally marry Luna. I unravel, demanding answers. Silent, Cody locks me in the bedroom's walk-in closet. "Luna was trapped in an elevator for 30 minutes! She nearly died because of you! Stay here for five days. Feel her fear!" Only on the sixth morning does Cody casually open the door with a chuckle. "Alright, lesson learned. Time to apologize, right?" He finds only the stench of blood and my cold, lifeless body. He's killed the fiancée who's loved him for seven years.

Mon compagnon Mason n'a pas seulement hérité de la position d'Alpha de la tribu, mais également de sa belle-mère Olivia. Après chaque moment intime avec elle, Mason me répétait invariablement : « Evelyn, ne t'inquiète pas. Je n'avais pas le choix. » « Tu es la seule que j'aime vraiment. Dès qu'Olivia sera enceinte et aura accouché, j'organiserai la cérémonie de marquage avec toi. » Il m'a expliqué que c'était la condition imposée par le Roi Alpha pour qu'il puisse hériter du titre d'Alpha de la Meute Fantôme. En une année, Mason a passé au moins trois cents jours avec Olivia. Lorsque celle-ci est finalement tombée enceinte, j'ai cru que je pourrais enfin me tenir à ses côtés en tant que compagne. C'est à ce moment que j'ai compris : Mason avait donné aussi bien son amour que son corps à Olivia. J'ai complètement abandonné et me suis tournée vers ma fille de sept ans : « Ma chérie, veux-tu partir avec Maman ? » « Oui, je veux rester avec Maman », m'a-t-elle répondu. Mason ne savait pas que ce que je désirais n'avait jamais été le titre de Luna. Tout ce que je voulais, c'était un amour sincère et entier. Si tu ne peux pas me l'offrir, alors je m'en irai.

Minha melhor amiga, Gabriela Nunes, que insiste no celibato, pegou o esperma que eu tinha escolhido para mim quando me acompanhava na clínica de fertilização. Naquele momento, eu soube que ela também tinha renascido. Na vida passada, eu quis ter um bebê de etnia mista, então fiz fertilização in vitro. Gabriela na época me ridicularizou por estar criando um filho de um estrangeiro, e disse que eu era uma idiota completa. Mal eu sabia que, meio mês depois, eu seria levada para a família real de Nabiro. Acontece que o esperma que eu tinha escolhido era de um príncipe de Nabiro, com oito origens étnicas. Ele não só queria me fazer sua princesa, como também prometeu que nosso filho herdaria o trono. Eu e o bebê fomos valorizados por toda a família real, e as joias no meu corpo quase me esmagavam. Em contraste, Gabriela ofendeu parceiros de trabalho por se autoproclamar uma feminista extrema, foi demitida da empresa e expulsa da indústria. No 100º dia do meu filho, ela usou todas as suas economias para comprar uma passagem de avião para me procurar. Mas, quando eu fui recebê-la, ela jogou meu filho no chão, matando-o, e jogou ácido sulfúrico concentrado em mim. — Por que você tem tanta sorte? Você não merece, sua vadia! Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu voltei ao dia em que Gabriela me acompanhou à clínica de fertilização...

She heard the door creak open, and her breath caught in her throat. The bed shifted behind her as he lay down, his arm wrapping around her waist. His face buried in her hair, his lips softly exploring her neck. "What—what are you doing?" she stuttered, her voice barely above a whisper. Her mind racing with the sudden intimacy. "Hugging my wife," he murmured against her cheek. His warm breath sent shivers down her spine. "This—wasn't part of the deal," she protested weakly, his cologne intoxicating her senses. "Rules are meant to be broken," he whispered, his voice low and husky. "Now, face me, wifey. Let me feel your arms around me!" ----------- Powerful, successful and in control. Nothing is out of Viktor Alessandro Rossi's reach. With a Gulfstream jet on standby, and a company that rule the whole city, the world is his oyster. But he's missing just one thing — a wife. According to his late grandfather's will, he must marry at the age of 30 to inherit controlling shares of Rossi industries. Katarina Reed knew she only had herself to blame. She shouldn't have asked for his help. Of course if she'd known he'd request that she be his wife for two years, she'd have hesitated in accepting his help. Because what she had learned from Viktor was that the devil wasn't ugly and terrorizing. He was seductive and captivating. Would she escape the devil's grasp, or forever be bound to him?

I'm at an auction with my mother-in-law, Agnes Bachert. She spots a breathtaking emerald necklace, and we end up winning it for 30 million dollars. The auctioneer signals for payment. To make things easier, Agnes suggests charging it to my father-in-law Otto Garrett's account. But just as she says this, a flashy middle-aged woman and a young woman storm over. The younger woman, Janette Saccone, grabs Agnes' arm while the middle-aged woman, Ruth Coleman, slaps her hard. "I knew something was off!" Ruth snarls. "You're a nasty old bitch for destroying my family and trying to seduce my husband! I hope you suffer!" I rush to shield Agnes. "Are you okay?" Ruth's sharp gaze snaps onto me when she hears me speak. "Your mother-in-law has no shame, throwing herself at rich men. And you're not even embarrassed for her?" I step in front of Agnes and tell Ruth that I'm married into the Garrett family, then demand to know who she is. Ruth gives me a cold, arrogant look. "Who am I? I'm Otto Garrett's legal wife—the one he married officially!" She gives me a look of pure contempt. "And who are you to question me?" Before I can say a single word, she pulls out her phone and dials a number. "Clement, my dear son, get to the auction house right now! Help me catch this homewrecker!" Clement Garrett? That's my husband. Since when does he have another mother?

Lors du tremblement de terre, mon mari, Milo Alarie, capitaine de l'équipe de secours, m'a laissée derrière pour sauver son premier amour, Christine Bassot. Je ne l'ai pas empêché et l'ai laissé partir, car, dans une vie antérieure, face à la même situation, il avait choisi de sauver d'abord moi, enceinte de huit mois. Et Christine, en raison de l'intervention tardive, avait été ensevelie sous les décombres à la suite des répliques, mourant asphyxiée. Plus tard, le jour de mon accouchement, Milo m'avait emmenée devant sa tombe. Il m'avait regardée tomber à terre à cause de la douleur intense, ignorant mes supplications incessantes. « Jennifer, ça fait mal, n'est-ce pas ? Mais, tu sais, ce jour-là, Christine souffrait mille fois plus que toi sous les décombres ! » Je le regardais, incrédule, et il m'avait dit, impitoyable : « Ce jour-là, tu étais dans une zone de sécurité ! Si tu n'avais pas utilisé ta grossesse comme excuse, Christine aurait-elle manqué l'opportunité de secours optimale ? Elle a souffert à cause de toi, et maintenant, je veux que tu ressentes sa douleur ! » Il m'avait forcée à me prosterner devant la photo de Christine, mes douleurs s'intensifiant alors que je saignais abondamment. Finalement, j'étais morte à cause de complications pendant l'accouchement et une hémorragie. Lorsque j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'ai découvert que j'étais retournée à ce jour fatidique ! Cette fois, ni mon enfant, ni moi, ne compterions sur lui !
