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

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

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
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and four
Damien's POV;I had never felt so broken on the inside. If this was how love was then I truly wished I never felt it. I wished Amy hadn't opened my eyes to realize that I was in love with this woman. It hurt even more that I knew she felt something for me but was not willing to fight for it. Was I not worth fighting for? Did I not deserve to be loved? Was this my punishment for being so cruel to all the women I had come across. I had broken so many hearts so nonchalantly because I didn't know what it felt like to be in such a situation. And now, the only woman that made me say that cursed L-word had my heart shattered to pieces. Lessons learnt. I was driving in the outskirts of LA and was somewhat absentminded because of how downtrodden I was feeling.I was speeding a little too much on a one-way road and I just wanted to slow down and take a bend when a speeding truck came at me. I swerved quickly to avoid a fatal collision. Then, I lost control when the car tumbled off the highway
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and five
"There's been a complication." The family doctor, Dr. Kingsley said, briskly walking up to all of us who had crowded the lobby for hours. After the hour long trip on the helicopter. Damien was once again rolled out into the ER. I sat still for a long time until everyone else, I mean, the whole family joined me. Fiona clung to me like the baby sister she had become to me. She had her head on my shoulder, her arms wrapped around my torso as we sat waiting for some sort of news concerning him. "A complication?" Aiden came forward. "The gash was deeper than we thought and it's affected some vital parts. Unfortunately, Mr Kingston has slipped into a coma." My eyes squeezed shut in reflex and I dug my teeth deep into my lower lip to hold back the scream that was about erupting from my throat. Just like my husband, I slowly slipped into unconsciousness amid horrified screams from everyone else. **** My eyes peeled open and immediately shut back up due to the unexpected influx of
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and six
It had been a week. One whole week! A week of never ending worries and more than enough prayers to call for the Almighty's attention. I tutted and my face contorted into a sneer when Dr. Caleb came into the room for routine checkup instead of the family doctor who was supposed to be in charge. Caleb was simply not getting the hint that I was not interested in whatever he thought he had to offer me. It was slowly beginning to grate on my nerves. He even asked me on a date the previous day. Was this man trying to create a scandal that would soil my name or something? Was he sent to set me up and ruin my marriage? I thought you didn't want the marriage? My inner self had a way of calling out my bluff and it left me retracing my thoughts back to my initial disposition. Of course I didn't want the marriage but that didn't mean I would disrespect my vows for the next few months that remained. But, what if he doesn't wake up by then? The thought had me visibly shaken. "Ariana?" My ey
Being His Wife Chapter One Hundred and seven
Damien's POV;"So Mr Kingston, we've checked all your vitals and you're in good shape. We'll keep watching you but if you keep it up, soon enough you'll be discharged." The doctor who had exchanged numbers with Amy the last time we were at the hospital said."Thank you, doc." I rasped out, squinting my eyes in reaction to the pain I felt. The headaches that came with the injury on my head were searing."How soon can he get discharged?" Ariana piped up. She had been quiet ever since the doctor came in."Oh uhm Ariana, we're going to have to observe him for a few days, after that, he'll be free to go home but would still have stipulated days for regular check-ups." I barely heard his string of words. The only thing that caught my attention was the fact that he referred to her by her first name."She's Mrs Kingston to you. You got that?" I said plainly but with a warning in my eyes."Yes sir." He nodded, swallowed and left after staring at my wife who didn't even glance in his direction
