As I toured the beautiful villa, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by its grandeur. The marble floors, the high ceilings, and the stunning views from every window left me in awe. After hours of exploring, I found myself exhausted and in need of a break. I made my way to the living area and collapsed onto the plush couch, closing my eyes and letting out a deep sigh.I must have dozed off because the next thing I knew, I felt a soft pair of lips on mine. I opened my eyes to see Damien leaning over me, his eyes sparkling with mischief. ” hey beautiful” he said kissing me again.I smiled into the kiss, feeling a rush of excitement course through my body. Damien's hands roamed over my body, sending shivers down my spine. I kissed him back with a passion that surprised me, my body craving more of his touch.Before I knew it, we were making our way to the bedroom, our hands and lips intertwined. We spent hours exploring each other's bodies, lost in a world of pleasure and desire. As the s
As evening descends upon us, Damien returns home from work, tired but full of love. I decide not to burden him with the heated confrontation between his mother and me earlier in the day. Instead, I want our time together to be a moment of blissful respite.We find ourselves cozied up in our room, engrossed in a movie, seeking solace within the fictional world on the screen. The weight of the day's events still lingers, but I push them to the periphery of my mind, determined to find joy in the present moment.Suddenly, a subtle movement within me interrupts the stillness. A spark of surprise and excitement courses through my veins as I place my hand on my belly, feeling the baby's kicks for the first time."Damien," I call out softly, my voice tinged with amazement and joy. "The baby is kicking! Come, feel!"He turns his attention toward me, his eyes lighting up with anticipation and wonder. We exchange glances, our smiles widening with each movement beneath my touch. The room is filled
My name is Amina Locke, I am 22 years old. I am quite short, curvy, and have beautiful blue eyes and waist-long blonde hair. Unfortunately, my features don't exactly endear me to my family, especially my mother,Sharon, and sister, Elizabeth. She is a carbon copy of mother. They both have long black hair, brown eyes, and fair skin. My father, David Locke, is a dark-eyed, dark-haired man, and unlike the rest of my family, he is kind and supportive of me. We are one of the wealthiest families in Hummingville, with a beautiful home, successful business ventures, and plenty of extra societal benefits.Our mansion is an imposing structure, built from rose-tinted bricks and filled with grandeur. The building towers over the tree-lined avenue on which it is placed, and the meticulously maintained gardens only add to the appeal. In one corner of the garden, there is a small gazebo where I like to sit and read during the summer evenings.Our wealth comes from a variety of businesses that my fat
When I woke up the next morning, my eyes were swollen from all the crying I had done the night before. I lay in bed, not wanting to face the day ahead. But as I lay there, I knew I couldn't spend the rest of my life locked up in my room.I had to face reality, and I had to figure out what to do next.I got dressed slowly and headed downstairs. As soon as I entered the living room, my mother and sister looked at me with steely glares. father, on the other hand, gave me a tight hug and asked ”what’s wrong sweetly” , I tried to hold back my tears, but they flowed freely once again when I told them everything.At first, mother couldn't believe what she was hearing. ” you naïve child, you’re too trusting, and too foolish.” Elizabeth joined in, ”you deserved what you got for being so clueless. Josh doesn’t love you he only stayed with you because he didn’t know how to tell you we were in love” she said smugly.I was hurt beyond words because I couldn’t say anything.Father was the only one wh
As we finished breakfast, everyone was silent, processing the news that had just been revealed to us. My mother and Elizabeth quickly excused themselves, "Liz and I are going to run some errands we’ll be back in a couple of hours” mom said. My father headed to his office, no doubt trying to find a loophole in the contract that had been presented to us. As for me, I retreated to my room, where I was left to contemplate my own thoughts.I couldn't help but think about my pregnancy. I knew that I couldn't keep it hidden forever, but I was afraid of how my family would react. I also couldn't stop thinking about Josh and Elizabeth's betrayal. The thought of them together made my stomach turn, and I couldn't understand why they would do this to me. I know why Liz did it but Josh I just couldn’t understand.Just as I was lost in my thoughts, there was a knock on my door, ” come in “ I said. It was Janet, one of our housemaids, ” your father requested your presence in his office” she said. “
I am wearing a emerald green gown that hugged my curves in all the right places. The dress exudes confidence and elegance. The fabric was soft and flowed effortlessly as I walked, and the intricate beading added just the right amount of sparkle. I paired the dress with simple diamond studs and a matching bracelet, letting the dress speak for itself. My mother chose a more conservative outfit. She wore a classic black pencil skirt and a white blouse with a modest neckline. Elizabeth, on the other hand, wore a tight-fitting red dress that left little to the imagination, with a plunging neckline and a short hemline. Her outfit was daring and provocative, but I knew that was her intention. As for my father, he wore a tailored black suit with a crisp white shirt and a black tie. He looked sharp and professional, as always. Together, we made our way outside to our black limousine. ”Good evening mr and Mrs Locke, miss Amina, miss Elizabeth” mark our driver greeted us. I nod at him as I ente
I entered and sat nervously in the lavish sitting room of the De'Luca estate, my parents flanking on either side with Elizabeth sitting beside mom. My heart fluttered anxiously as the conversation danced around the impending marriage. The room filled with an air of formality, as if every word spoken had the weight of the world attached to it.Dad spoke with a solemn tone "Mr. and Mrs. De'Luca, we are honored to have this opportunity to discuss the union of our families."He paused for a moment, clearing his throat. "After extensive discussions, we have decided to proceed with the plans for the marriage between Amina and your son, Damien."A brief silence follows, as the De'Luca's absorbed the news. Old madam De'Luca, nodded slowly. "We appreciate your trust in our family, Mr. William. This alliance will indeed serve both of our interests well. The date of the marriage will be two months from now, I hope it is well with you.”My dad looked at me. I know he is asking if I’m alright with
I stepped out of the comforting embrace of the coffee shop and hailed an Uber to take me back home. The cool evening air offered a slight respite from the whirlwind of emotions that had consumed my every thought throughout the day. As the Uber made its way through the busy streets, I couldn't help but revisit the encounter with the stranger who had temporarily eased my burdens.Thoughts of our laughter and deep conversations echoed in my mind, casting a smile on my face. Leaving a bittersweet longing for the connection we had shared. It was a stark contrast to the heaviness I often felt within the confines of my home, where the impending arranged marriage and the betrayal of josh lingered like unwelcome shadows.Upon arriving home, my father was waiting anxiously in the living room. Worry lined his face, etched deeply in his furrowed brow. His eyes widened in relief as he saw me, and he rushed forward, enveloping me in a tight embrace."I was so worried when you didn't show up at home
