Being His Wife Chapter Ninety six
I marveled at the beautiful house Brianna owned. It was so chic and classy just like her. Her call came in the nick of time. She had just returned from rounding up a shoot in England and reached out when she heard the news. I got emotional and let her know about my new living situation and she sent me her address. And here I was, staring at the drool worthy sight she called home. "Welcome Ariana." She said, majestically strutting down the stairs. My gaze followed her until she stood in front of me and gave me a hug. She ushered me to a seat and had my suitcase taken by one of her helps up to her guestroom. "Thanks for letting me stay here for a while Brianna. This means a lot to me." I said, expressing my gratitude profusely. "Oh it's alright." She said with a dismissive wave. "How are you? Really?" She asked knowingly, holding on to my hand. I let out a shaky breath. "I feel like my whole world is crumbling into pieces and I don't even understand anything going on anymore."
Being His Wife Chapter Ninety seven
Damien's POV; I downed another glass of whiskey. It burned my throat bringing tears that stung at my eyeballs. I felt miserable, utterly useless, despicable in fact. I had pulled the last straw and Ariana had finally left me. I couldn't count the number of times I thought it was a dream or a prank but each time I looked around my eeriely quiet bedroom, it painfully dawned on me that my wife was gone. As usual, my coping mechanism was to drown myself in work and not think about anything or anyone else. I had called and called and called. She did not pick up. She never did. I threw a fit the day I came home and saw that a lot more of her stuff were missing from the closet we shared and when I asked, I was informed that she had come to take more of her stuff and no one cared to let me know about it. I yelled at my mom who confessed that she was aware of Ariana's visit before hand and had promised to not let me know about it. Everyone in the house bore a brunt of my anger that day.
Being His Wife Chapter Ninety eight
Ariana's POV; San Diego is a very beautiful place. When I moved into Brianna's beach house, I saw that it was good as new. Scratch that, it's actually a new place. All the furnitures were brand new and covered up to prevent dust. She informed me that she had bought the place so she could come chill for the summer, away from the hustle and bustle of LA life. There were times I would just sit by the beach side all alone because I felt lonely for the few weeks I had been here. I would cry whenever my mind wandered over to my father. I used to scroll over to our chats and read through them, I used to listen to our voice notes and find myself laughing and crying at the same time. I missed all our long calls, our bickerings and never ending arguments over him taking care of his health. A part of me still did not want to believe he was gone. I don't think I'm the only one who feels that way about losing someone, am I? Most of the time when I think about him, it never felt like he had g
Being His Wife Chapter Ninety nine
Damien's POV; I saw the news and the next thing that crossed my mind was to go straight to San Diego but I was so tied down with work and I couldn't make the trip. A week had gone by so fast and I still hadn't gotten any free time. I had confronted Brianna and even begged her to let me know where Ariana had gone to and she refused to divulge such information claiming she could not betray Ariana's trust as a friend and it was so frustrating that no matter what I offered her, she would not budge. Well now, I didn't need her help anymore. As long as I knew she was in San Diego and she didn't move from there, it was going to be an easy ride from here onwards. I was stuck in my study worrying about what my next move would be when I heard a shrill scream. "Damien!" That was Aleena. I ignored it. I did not have the energy for her attention seeking drama. After a while, I heard my name again. "Damien!" That was my mom. I sat up. "Damien!" That was Amy. I stood up from my seat and briskl
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred
Damien's POV; The hospital room fell quiet when I walked in. I had called Aleena's mother who lived in Palm springs and she arrived in LA the next morning. No one in the house had volunteered to look after Aleena so I just had to bring her mother here. "Hello Damien." I stared at her mother and inwardly cringed at the heavy makeup that covered her face. The extravagant outfit she had on proved how unfit she was for the task but Aleena's her daughter, she has to do the right thing. "Hello Mrs Berkeley." I said courteously. "Just call me Katrina." She said and I nodded. "Aleena. How are you feeling today?" She pursed her lips and sat up to look at me properly. "I'm better but I still feel a little pain here and there." She said. I nodded and dropped the bouquet of flowers Amy got for me to give her. "Thank you." She softly said and I nodded. "It's so sad that you two lost the baby." I heard her mother comment. We both simultaneously turned to her. "But," she continued. "I'm s
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and one
Ariana's POV; "Aleena Berkeley went on air to do what?" I said as Brianna broke some very disturbing news to me. "Careful there, Mico." I said as he bumped his head on the bedstead while following me out of the room. "Go on Brie." "It was crazy, I screamed!" She exclaimed with her usual melodramatic poses. Brianna truly was dubbed the queen of drama for a reason. She had FaceTimed me that morning as she usually did from time to time only for her to tell me that Aleena had a miscarriage and confessed to drugging Damien into sleeping with her. "But why would she ruin her reputation on air like that? She has to know the implication of such a confession." I reasoned. "She surely must have hit some good money to take such risk for her career." Brianna quipped. "Some good money huh?" I said thoughtfully. "Brianna, do you think Damien paid her to say those things?" "I won't put it past him, he's a wealthy man and you never know what these people can do to cover their tracks." She sa
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and two
Damien's POV; "I'm hopelessly in love with you, Ariana." I finally said it. But, I wasn't done with my confession. I continued speaking when I saw she was too stunned to utter a word. "I longed for adoring someone as sweet as you. I longed for a relationship, only like the one I have with you. I longed for a life where I will live with you when we are together in our home. Do dreams at any point work out as expected? Indeed, they do, because I discovered you and I love you, Ariana Delaney Kingston." I recited. I had my heart in my mouth as spoke. I was a nervous wreck. She narrowed her eyes at me. That was not the reaction I was expecting. "Brianna put you up to this, didn't she?" She wasn't asking, she was stating the fact. She caught me. Why's this woman so smart? "She wouldn't give me the address to this place until I rehearsed those lines perfectly. I just had to." I resignedly confessed. I was embarrassed at how silly I had become because I was in love with the woman in fro
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and three
Damien's POV; I was trying to get over Ariana's rejection. I had never been turned down by any woman in my entire life. I had never actually been in love with anyone before now. With Ariana, I was going through so many firsts. I wanted to go back to her, I wanted to speak to her. I couldn't give up just after one trial. But, something just kept holding me back. I couldn't place my finger on it but there was something that just kept telling me to stay put. The date and time on my phone told me otherwise. It was the thirtieth of the month. The nine month mark was here and our contract had officially come to an end. Our marriage had become the real deal now and the next three months were either going to make or break it. I couldn't sit still and watch the only woman I've ever loved slip out of my hands. No way. I quickly got on my feet and dressed up for the three-hour journey ahead of me. Getting downstairs, I saw mom coming towards me with a sullen look on her face. "Good morning
