Ivy Hughes Kayla was still sleeping by the time I got to our suite. I tapped her hurriedly, waking her up.She whined, stretching and sitting up on the bed. She rubbed her eyes to be sure I was the one standing. "Ivy! Is it noon already? Are we checking out now?" She asked, dumbfounded. "No! But we have to leave here now,"I mumbled while pulling our luggage from the corner. I put on my shoes and stood by the door. Kayla was looking like it was hard to understand the only statement I made. "But why?" "He owns here. He was here a while ago," I replied, hastily.She twitched her face and opened her mouth to say something but halted, her twitched face shifted into a terrified expression. "What!" She removed the duvet from her body, got off the bed, slid her legs into her shoes and we dashed out of the hotel. "What did he do to you? Did he say something?" Kayla asked. She waved her hand, trying to stop a taxi. "He told me to prepare to move home," I replied. A taxi
Dillon Long I splintered my brain, trying to understand the reason this woman was so stubborn. Despite my warnings, she still decided to run away from me. She must know better than anyone that nobody can run away from me. Not in this country and not even in the country she was trying to run to, Alaska.I was sure she didn't know I owned half of the country she was running to. My properties are everywhere, from the airport to the crooks and corners of the country.I watched as she tried to trick me into letting her go without knowing I had already seen through her tricks. I wanted to stop her but she was fun to watch. So I let her continue with what she called smartness.I was irate. I just wanted to take her home and teach her a lesson she would never forget. I strode inside after giving her a reason to be stunned. I couldn't resist giggling when I saw her puzzled countenance. I got into the house and sat patiently on the couch, waiting for her. It took her a lifetime, however, she
Ivy Hughes He was forcing himself on me. I wanted to scream but my shameless body was reacting to his touches. I felt irritated. Wrath surged within me. I wanted to escape from him and slap him hard on his face but I couldn't. Even if I was able to evade him, I wouldn't be able to do anything. All I could do was shed tears and watch as he made my body his sex toy.I groaned when he slid his finger into my pussy but it came out as a moan. At that moment, I wanted to beat myself. How can this body be so unabashed?This cruel man was abusing you and all you could do was enjoy it? Thinking about it, I discovered I was at fault. I took advantage of him by getting married to him and I told him it was a facade the following morning. Nobody would be able to take that. "Ivy! You have to endure everything he does," I took a deep breath. I would let him have his way and we will be even when he is done. I will be able to live peacefully again.My breath became uneven when I remembered I hav
Ivy Hughes My heart stopped working when he ordered his men to take me to a dark room. Fear gripped me. I didn't know how to tell him I was afraid of darkness.We got to the dark room, however, it wasn't as dreary as he had pronounced it. It was just as spacious as his master bedroom. It had a bed and a small shelf beside it. There was no window except a small hole at the upper part of the room where the little ray shone into the room from.One of his men, who was carrying me, dropped me on the bed like I was a bag of sand and they strode out without glancing at me for a second. I wanted to hold their legs and plead with them to let me go but my ego took a better part of me.My trepidation increased when I heard them slam the door. They were gone.I sat up on the bed, folded my legs, and rested my head on my knees. Inwardly, I was praying somebody would come and help me. Or maybe Kayla would.Yes! Kayla! She must be hell worried about me. She must have lost her sanity already.After
Dillon Long My sanity went away when I saw Ivy lying unconscious on the cold floor. I wasn't thinking of anything when I picked her up but something was in my head. I don't want to lose her. Although, she was naive. She has made my life interesting. I wake up every day with different things to do and worry about.She opened her eyes and I could see it in her eyes. The anxiety. The uncertainties. The longing.Afterward, she blacked out.*. *. * After spending a lot of time in the theater. The head of the doctor came out. He sighed when he saw me and my heart tightened. "Remember that what you say will decide the fate of your hospital," I threatened.My voice was hoarse to him, but deeply, I was shaking and hoping it would be something else. "Your wife is safe and out of trouble, Mr. Dillon,"He confessed. I jumped like I had heard the best news of my life. I even carried him up absently. "Can I see her now?" "Of course. She will be taken to the VVIP ward in a few minut
Narrator's POV Dillon wasn't shocked to meet his mother and Mirabel in his house when he stepped into the house. He had been expecting them since he hadn't picked up Mirabel's calls for two days nor returned them.Ivy looked at him, puzzled, and he returned a reassuring glance. "Go upstairs," He said in a lowered tone. Ivy nodded and strode to the bedroom. Watching her go to Dillon's master bedroom, Mirabel dug nails into her skin. She clutched her teeth and was looking at her with killing intent.She flared up as soon as Ivy closed the bedroom door behind her. "What is that slut looking for here?" She asked, breathing laboriously because of anger. "Here? Does my mansion look like yours?" Dillon threw back mercilessly. His response shocked both his mother and Mirabel. He walked to his bar, poured himself a glass of Baron wine, and footed back to where they were seated. He took his seat on the couch opposite them. "Mother! Did you see that? She is the reason he's been negl
Mirabel stood in front of the smart TV in the VVIP ward she was admitted to, watching the news with content, she huffed and scoffed. "Well done, Mirabel! There is no better way to teach her a lesson!" She complimented and patted herself on the head. She switched the TV off with the remote controller in her hand and walked back to her bed. She brought out a mirror from her bag and checked her wounded neck with it.She had gone home after leaving Dillon's house with his mother the previous day, however, it was with another plan on her mind. She wanted to implicate Ivy and make the citizens hate her. She got home and picked a new blade from her set of tools and scraped her neck with it.Thankfully, she already put a call to the estate security because she definitely didn't want to die while doing that. The security man came in at the right time and met her in the pool of her blood and she was rushed to the hospital.Mirabel invited the reporters the next day and accused Ivy of snatch
Dillon didn't make any sound at her statement. He walked to his closet and came out almost immediately with a pack of cigarettes. He lit one cigarette up and had three puffs. He sat on the only couch in the bedroom.Ivy was getting exasperated that he was mute to what she said. Didn't her statement deserve a response? "I said I want a divorce," She repeated audibly. Dillon threw the already-lit cigarette in his hand into a waste bin. He stood and was going to the bathroom when Ivy held his arm, stopping him from moving. Dillon halted and looked at her hands on his arm. His tensed bones became relieved. "You can't go in there until you give me a befitting response," She uttered, deepening her eyes into his.Dillon opened his mouth like he wanted to say something, but he discontinued and flashed his white teeth at her. His smile was captivating and charming. Ivy forgot she wanted to divorce for a few seconds and smiled back at him.Dillon moved his mouth closer to her ear and
