69 || Brother
Kelvin knew the moment Leila countenance changed. He tried to follow her line of sight but he didn’t see anyone. After exchanging pleasantries with some guests, he excused himself from the couple engaging them and led Leila away.
They stopped at the farthest corner of the hall, away from prying eyes. “Are you okay?”“Yeah.” But her smile was forced. “I’m good.”Leila took his hand and he forgot the issue for a moment. They glided to a group of people talking in the corner and the DJ continued the music. He didn’t interrupt their conversation to introduce her because she was still stiff. Her smile had lost some of its shine and she wasn’t as excited as she was when they first entered.He beckoned to a passing waiter and took the glass of bubbling wine from the tray. “This will help to calm you.”With a small smile, she accepted it and he snatched it from her grip before she could take ano

Leila stepped out of the hall with her heart pounding in her ears. She had to circle the hall twice to put off Kelvin. Her purse was vibrating and she knew he had to be the caller.

He was related to the devil and he never said a word.The thought made her head throb, she grabbed her head and gasped out a sob. Maybe she should return home.

Uncle Levi had seemed nice at first until they got a chance to be alone.

His Contract Wife 72 || Hey Leila
Leila woke with a pounding headache. She grabbed her head and groaned, wishing the drilling in her skull would stop. Her eyes roamed the room in confusion.Where was she?The room she was in looked foreign and her gown was different. She shot to her feet and sat down immediately when another wave of dizziness hit her.There was an empty glass and a bottle of water on the drawer with notes stuck under the bottle. The first note read: Check the drawer, take two.Leila opened the bedside drawer and found a bottle of Advil, she popped the pills and drank directly from the bottle. Minutes later, her head calmed and she reached for the second note.This note was lengthier with a familiar handwriting. Charles. Panic crept under her skin. Underneath the robe, she was fully naked. Where was her gown?Hey Leila,I’m guessing you’re awake. You must have had a little too much to drink last night. You blacked out
His Contract Wife 73 || A cheap fucking whore
Kelvin paced the bedroom with his new phone in one hand. Leila was not yet back. She spent another night outside, her third night in a row. She was probably in Charles arms. Kelvin tossed his phone on the bed and ran his fingers through his hair.One thing was clear, he was hurt but he still wanted her. He hated himself for wanting her after watching that video. He hated her for making him want him.The ringing of his phone pulled him out of his thoughts. Freya had called him on Saturday night but he didn’t pick. Kelvin didn’t want to hear what she had to say on behalf of her best friend. He had received a text from her to please call his wife and it left him more furious than he already was. She had to have been aware Leila cheated. They were that close. If Freya had any sense, she would have tried to stop her best friend from doing something silly.What did Charles have over him?Where was that anger when Charles molested h
His Contract Wife 74 || Article 7.2
Leila didn’t move until she heard the sound of their front door closing. She dashed to their wardrobe and dragged out her box, shoving clothes into it in no particular order. She had to leave this place before he returned to hurt her. That man wasn’t her husband and the greatest mistake she made was letting him know her plans.She should have left without notice.Clothes went into one bag and shoes went into another. Anything she forgot here could be burnt or donated to charity. Leila finished packing, changed into loose fitting clothes and ordered an Uber to Freya’s house. She wasn’t sure what she would tell her best friend but she would worry about that on her way there.The phone in her hand vibrated when the Uber driver arrived, she hurried to the door to open it and her heart sank to her belly.No. No, please.Leila twisted the knob, pressed her leg against the door and tried to yank it ope
His Contract Wife 75 || It Started With A Contract
“Our agreement stands,” Kelvin replied in a flat tone. “You signed it. It Started With A Contract, it will end with a contract. You are a contract wife, yes, I know. But there will be no divorce or annulment for one year.” Kelvin’s mind was a pool of many emotions as he took in her facial expression. She turned away from him, holding onto the chair as she bawled her eyes out. First, he felt anger, then disgust, pity and fear. He was angry at her for suggesting an annulment. Disgusted by her desperateness to be with the man who nearly raped her. He pitied her because he cared but he was afraid she would leave him. Sometime along the line, he had gotten used to the stability she brought into his life and he wasn’t willing to let her go. As much as she hurt him, he still cared about her. “For this to work, we have to understand each other,” he said in a voice that sounded too strange to him. They had been married for over three months and he
His Contract Wife 76 || Your woman
Kelvin didn’t go to the guest room, he sat in front of their bedroom, rocking from side to side till he fell asleep. When Leila opened the door, he was the first person she saw. Leila squatted in front of the figure curled against the door, she was torn between waking him or leaving him out here to suffer the stupidity of his choices. The latter option seemed cruel. She shook him awake. “Kev? Kelvin.” He was still in his office attire, she helped him out of his shoes and he shivered slightly before his eyes fluttered open. Her heart leapt to her throat as his grey eyes tried to take in his surroundings. He sat up. “Did you sleep here?” “No.” Kelvin was lying, she could tell by the way he avoided her gaze. She helped him to his feet, it was cold out here and she didn’t want him to freeze. She might be hurt but she still cared for him, she would always care. “I came here a minute ago. Couldn’t sleep.” It was the sam
His Contract Wife 77 || Come with me
Kelvin was pissed at what he had just heard but the desire for his wife swallowed his anger. He looked into her eyes and she stared back at him without any doubts. How did he get so lucky? “Are you sure?” Her answer came in the form of her pulling off the night shirt over her head. The twin buds on her chest pointed at him, he swept her off her feet and lowered her to the bed. Kelvin kissed the mark on her breast, he wanted to replace it with his tender touches. He sucked on her nipple with a patient delicacy. Leila whimpered his name. Her moans inspired him to go further and his hand dragged down to her inner thighs. She pulled off her night shorts before he could and he gulped hard at the beauty underneath him. He would do right by her. She was his heavenly flower and she deserved to be treated that way. His mouth covered her nipple again, he twirled his tongue over it while his hand went between her leg
