InvitationRAYNE'S POV"I prefer purple," I replied. I couldn't imagine spending an amount I didn't work for on a single piece of dress. I mean, there were a lot of lives one could reach out to with such money. Plus, I could get many beautiful dresses in my regular dress store for less.Bianca turned to Elaina, glaring at her with visibly furious eyes. Elaina didn't flinch, and neither did she lower her gaze. She had always been fearless. I guess this thing comes with being powerful."Alright. I guess there are other things you might like here." Mrs. Lawn said. "You know your husband likes red, don't you?"In all honesty, I didn't. I stared at her dumbfoundedly. I didn't know whether or not to tell her the truth. Did they even know the circumstances surrounding my marriage to Eric? My phone beeped in my hand and I lowered my gaze from Mrs. Lawn.A message from Eric. Talk of the devil.'Go home early and don't bother waiting for me, I'll be back late.'"Huh! Don't bother waiting on him
The Hero, The Heroine, and The Villain.RAYNE'S POVMorningI woke up and found that my bed had been surrounded. Rubbing my eyes thoroughly, I wondered what was going on."Good morning Mrs. Rayne," A red-haired lady said, offering me a smile. "I'm Lizzy, a fashion director. On Eric Arnold's invitation, my team and I are here to help you get ready for the tea party."Help! Why was I needing help with getting dressed all of a sudden?"Is that necessary?" I asked her. I mean, I wasn't some sort of a kid who needed help with getting dressed."I hear you barely like the stress of being dulled up, but your husband already paid us. I promise you that we'd take out time to make you look good."I sighed inwardly. Here it was again. A wonderful moment in the bathtub was snatched from me."We'll start with a warm bath in lavender and rose water."No!" I immediately countered her. "I'm allergic to Lavender."After the bath in rose water, they put me down on the dressing desk and started working o
All AttentionRAYNE'S POVAs we entered the garden, a buttress clashed with Elaina, she seemed to have been in a hurry. Elaina understood this and simply took the girl's apology. Luckily, she wasn't carrying any liquids, so Elaina's dress didn't get soiled. But, she still needed to use the restroom to check on herself."I'll accompany you," I told her, but she stopped me."No, you can't. Not when your mother-in-law is over there dying for her new daughter-in-law to show up so she can show you to her friends." She said and strolled off."I would like you all to meet my new daughter-in-law, Rayne. She recently joined the Lawn family." The moment Mrs. Lawn said that, I noticed everyone's shock, then all the attention turned in my direction, like a flashlight. And I felt my heart begin to race dramatically."That can't be true, can it?" I heard someone say as Mrs. Lawn led me to a seat on the round tea table."She can't be the Lawn's daughter-in-law. I mean, she looks rather simple for th
Heaven's SentERIC'S POVI sat in my office going through a few files that I had neglected for a while, but no matter how much I tried to concentrate and get pending jobs done, it just was difficult to focus. I was stressed from trying to cancel a deadly deal Mr. Lawn had made, and both from work. And it didn't help that I had my little wife at the back of my mind. Thinking about her, I reclined on the headrest of my swivel chair, reflexly rolling the ball of my pen in the air.After my first encounter with her that night when she had offered her little self to me, my entire existence had changed. I had been there at the hotel on a work break as if that was ever possible. Work just keeps following me around no matter what I do, or where I go.I had just concluded an impromptu business meeting and on returning to my suite, a small figure bumped hard into me, her head colliding into my chest. With a frown of displeasure, I looked down at her honey-blonde hair. She pulled slightly away f
Play ParkRAYNE'S POVI noticed the entire place quieted down on Eric's arrival and it confused me."Eric?" Mrs. Lawn said with a tone of surprise in her voice."Mother." He replied, walking over to her. "I'm here to pick my wife."I felt my stomach flutter, then I glanced over at Elaina and saw her grinning widely at me. I felt my cheeks heat up and I looked away from her."But..." Mrs. Lawn started."Where's Grandma?" He asked Mrs. Lawn. The woman pulled him gently by the arm and the rest of their conversation was unknown.I rubbed my arms calmly. I was more than happy to leave this gathering already, but I could feel someone staring intensely at me. And when I looked in the opposite direction, Bianca's eyes were boring into me, giving me the creeps. I was slightly taken aback.Eric returned a while later, and it was time to go. "It's time to leave, wife." He told me and I gave him a nod. I picked up my purse and made to get up, but I suddenly felt something next to me. I glanced up
MemoriesRAYNE'S POV'Welcome to Disney Park.' I stood there at the same spot, staring at the inscription. I couldn't quite tell how that inscription made me feel, but I felt goosebumps all over my body. Was I really at Disney Park?When I was just a kid, I used to wish so dearly that I could come to Disneyland Park, but my parents didn't have much to afford that. A lot of kids in our neighborhood and some nasty kids in class would often make fun of me for that reason. Many times, I wish in secret that I'd go there one day, so that just like the other kids, I would have something to brag about, but, seeing my parents struggle every day to provide for our basic needs, I didn't have the heart to ask that of them. Therefore, I had had to pretend that I disliked the park, just so my parents didn't have to bother. But, in all, they were parents, they'd always notice.One day, on my tenth birthday, Mom and Dad came to pick me up from school. I was surprised to see them in my school because
ShortyRAYNE'S POVI locked eyes with him, wondering how he knew that. The only people that knew my likes and preferences were my parents and Elaina. "How did you know that?" I asked him and he smirked at me."I'm quite smart, you know? You are lucky to have me as your husband." He said with a proud look. I chuckled inwardly. Heaven alone knew just how much about me he had discussed with Elaina.Averting my gaze from him, I looked into the park. It was much more beautiful and developed now than I remember. But, why did it look like a deserted place? It was way too quiet and empty."Are we the only ones here?" I asked and watched Eric nod in response."Mmhm. I booked the entire place for today."Shocked, I turned to him. Did he just say that he rented the entire park? How could someone rent an entire play park? "Isn't that expensive?" I couldn't help but ask. I had done a mental check of how much that would cost."It is wife, the more reason you need to start having fun already. Your h
DIRTY DESIRES AND BEAUTIFUL MEMORIESERIC'S POVWith eyes shut and small plump lips slightly parted, I wondered if she was saying that it was okay to kiss her.*Sighs*No, she wasn't. I just had that effect on her. I tend to have that much effect on Women. I was certain she wouldn't want me to kiss her. I had to stop myself from taking an action I had already begun and wanted so desperately, therefore, I leaned into her shoulder instead. But that didn't help, even in the least, because her nape was just right there, accessible in front of me, and I couldn't help but picture the wildest things.Fuck these images that kept popping up in my mind. I could feel my nerves cringing and all of my sexual muscles tightening. The desire to have her was worsening, getting harder and harder for me to control. When would I ever get to hear her say that word with my name attached to it?"Harder Eric."Probably never. She didn't seem like the kind of girl to go wild in bed or moan like a slut, that I
