SJ watched from the back in his car as his wife dropped on the ground when her legs finally gave way. She supported herself with her palms on the pavement and finally saw her let out a cry of anguish just as the rain poured down. Her cries reached his ears.
“Shall we get her, Sir?” Stuart asked with concern, who is on the front seat. “The rain might get stronger. Madam might catch a cold.”
“Give her a few minutes more,” SJ answered calmly.
He expected her reaction to his discovery. He was prepared for it and had even readied himself in the event she will react violently. What he wasn’t prepared of, was the anguished pain he felt in his heart when she reacted on what he said. He saw the way her eyes clouded with questions and uncertainties. She was shaking her head at the thought that the man she knows as her father could not be the real one.
“Call Newman back at the villa and have all available towels at the
Perhaps it was the alcohol talking or the mood that the heavy downpour is giving them. Dark skies and rain falling continuously on the roof, the sound in rhythm with the beating of his heart.All SJ know is that he has been desiring for his wife for quite some time ever since he stayed that night in her apartment after she had fainted.Elli had slowly and unintentionally made her own way into his being especially when she started defying and showing her rebellious nature. He had never liked his woman to be timid. Her refusal in bending to his will most of the time is probably one of the main reasons for his fatal attraction to her. He tried getting rid of that by spending more time with Carmela. His mistress as what she had boldly told him. But the more he spends time with his lover, the more he is longing to for his young wife.SJ looked down at his wife and with an inward groan, he placed a hand under her chin and tilted her face up. He lowered his lips to her
Elli opened her eyes at the rumble of the thunder as well as something heavy on her waist. She looked down and saw her husband’s arm draped over her. She followed the hand with her eyes and found him sleeping deeply behind her.She turned her eyes away from him and thought back of the events that happened between them. She blushed furiously as she remembered that she was the one who had asked him to make love to her. She didn’t know what came over her. She made the alcohol responsible that she had taken because she needed it to make her body warm. But it was still lacking since she was still shivering. She vowed that she would learn to drink so that she wouldn’t feel the need for his body warmth as what he had suggested. That had led to other things, and it made her want to die of embarrassment.How can I look him straight in the eye again?! She thought frantically.Or it might be probably the rain, which is still ongoing. She had always loved
SJ watched as Elli strolled ahead of them the following day. The rain had finally subsided late in the evening, and he was more than happy that William and his companions arrived early, and the chef had made them a sumptuous breakfast.He watched Elli enjoyed the food served to them. But, most of all, he was feeling secretly pleased with himself for making her hungry. He completely tired her out from last night.SJ then suspected that somehow his guards had informed them that he and Elli had finally accepted their fate and coupled. He came to that conclusion when he and Elli finally came out for breakfast and saw their smiling faces that each one of them cannot hide while his wife blushed out of embarrassment. He added more color to her face when he leaned down and gave her a quick kiss in front of them. The pleasing looks of the staff could not be hidden.They are now looking with high hopes and expectations for the next Kincaid heir.So much for paying
Elli stood rigidly when SJ placed her down inside the cave-like area that she had pointed to him. She stared at him, trying to calm her nerves, figuring out what his mind is thinking. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing and understanding from her husband.“I don’t know about this, SJ,” she started calmly but her pitch gave way on her nervousness. “D-Do they know the reason why you sent them away? When we return at the villa later, will they know that we.. that we…”“Had sex?” SJ finished with an amused smile. He went to her and took her in his arms. “Yes, they will know. It’s normal for them to know. We’re husband and wife. That alone is reason enough.”She looked up at him.“What are we going to do?” She asked.“I know what I’m going to do,” he answered as his one hand traveled underneath her shirt while his other hand went to the hem
“Thanks for doing this, Nigel,” SJ said seriously on Thursday morning in his office as he accepted the folder that his personal lawyer handed to him. He opened it and read through the documents for a while and nodded when he seemed satisfied. “I’ll give you a call once the penthouse will be ready for buyers to check.”Nigel Shaw nodded at him.“I’m sure there wouldn’t be a problem in finding the right buyer,” he assured with a smile. “My wife, Sally is already making proposals for the ads once it’s up.”SJ acknowledged it and he stood up, buttoning his coat before shaking his hand. “I owe you big time, man,” he said as he walked around his desk to escort him to the door. “Once everything is okay, let’s go out for dinner. I’ll bring Elli so she can meet Sal.”“Sal would love that,” Nigel agreed. “Do you know that she’s been as
Carmela Steinfeld checked her reflection on the glass wall in front of her before nodding at the doorman to let her in. She is looking forward for the evening at the Sky Garden, where SJ had book exclusively just for the two of them. She remembered the excitement she felt when she received his message after lunch. She abruptly ended her photoshoot with the fragrance brand that she is endorsing and hurriedly went shopping for a dress and got a quick pampering spa. He’s going to propose, she thought excitedly. This is it! Carmela, after all these years of keeping up with him, he’s finally going to be yours! Carmela thought back of the first time that she had crossed paths with SJ Kincaid at a function for newly risen young businessmen and women. She already knew who he was before she had even seen him physically. With all the media focused him as being the latest rising business under 30, Carmela made it her goal that night that she will be meeting him. She did
Elli smiled politely at the waiter after her order as well as Luisa’s are served inside the Museum Café late Friday afternoon. She called her good friend and invited her for an early dinner and then check out an exhibit she was invited to and to watch a movie. She automatically reached for her cup of coffee.“You’re glowing, Elli. I could see some good changes in you,” Luisa commented with a smile. She gave her a thorough scrutinizing look, nodding with approval. “Looks like those four days up there in his villa did something good to you. So, did you enjoy it?”Elli blushed and Luisa laughed. Her friend reached out and squeezed her arms lightly.“You don’t need to tell me,” Luisa said with a grin. “Your blush says it all. I’m so happy for you, Elli. It’s about time that you start having your happiness.”“I hope so,” Elli echoed.Luisa looked at her with
SJ opened his eyes early the following day and stared at the clock on the wall. It read five thirty in the morning, and he rubbed his eyes gently with his free hand before turning and looking down at his sleeping wife.Elli is sleeping deeply with his one arm wrapped around her shoulders. She had snuggled deeply into his side, her one arm draped across his chest while the other is cushioned underneath her.He stared at her perfectly trimmed, thick eyebrows, long and curly eyelashes and dainty, elegant, pixie nose. Her eyes when she will open them shows the deepest set of blue he has stared at and the way it will lit up when she smiles along with her soft, red lips. He liked running his hands along her smooth and velvety fair complexion skin and wrapped his arms around her slightly hour-glass figure. She isn’t on the voluptuous side like the other women he dated, but he wouldn’t change a damned thing about her. She was perfect.He looked at her calmly
