Allison’s POV Eyes shut in bliss, I smiled to myself as I burrowed closer into Leo's chest, inwardly melting as he raked his fingers through my tresses.I was currently spending the night at his place and Aiden was with Tasha and her husband.Although, Tasha had finally discovered that I was now seeing a new man after I broke up with Max, she had yet to uncover his identity and I truthfully hoped she never did anytime soon.It wasn't as if I won't tell her, I just wanted it to be on my own terms and at the right time, after I had buttered her up because we both knew how much she despised Leo after I told her everything.But as for Aiden, I intended on telling him about Leo very soon.How soon it was going to be and how I was going to do it, I didn't know yet but I was going to figure it out.“A dollar for your thoughts?” Leo's husky baritone seeped into my ears, pulling me out of my mind. “What's on your mind, baby?”“Nothing much,” I replied. “I'm just thinking about stuff, you know
Leo’s POV As I inscribed my signature on the folder of business proposals on my desk, my phone vibrated with an incoming call.Capping my pen, I grabbed my device and checked the caller ID. My lips flashed with a smile when I saw that it was Liam calling.“Hey, man,” He said, as soon as I answered the call. “How are you?”“I'm good. How are you?” I asked. “I was even planning on calling you later today but you have beaten me to it.”“Same here,” He replied. “I hope nothing happened? You are okay, right?” His voice was thick with concern which made me huff.Out of the three of us, Liam was the one who inherited our mother's worrying genes. My mum could worry about stuff that would and had never happened before in history.Dad often teased her about her worrying nature, asking how she had become a neurosurgeon even though she was a chronic worrier.“I didn't know you cared so much about me, man. It's flattering.” I teased him, and he huffed.“Fuck off, man. So what's up?”“Allison int
Leo’s POV “My darling!” Mum squealed as I entered the house, and I smiled before leaning in to give her a warm embrace. “How are you doing, ma?” I asked, still enclosing her in the hug. “I missed you.”“I've been well,” She shrugged, pulling away from the hug to gaze at me, a smile twitching her lips. “And I missed you so much more. You look slimmer, did something happen? Have you been eating well at all?”“Nothing happened, ma, and I've been eating well,” I fondly huffed, as she caressed my cheek, worry prominent in her eyes. “Where's dad by the way? I don't see him.”“Dad is in his study,” Mum began to say and smiled as dad walked downstairs, as though he had sensed that I had arrived. “Leo,” He said. “What a great surprise. How are you?”“I'm fine, dad,” I replied, as he drew me into a hug before pulling away and giving me a firm slap on the shoulder. “How about you?”“Well, I'm also in good health,” He said, wrapping an arm around mum.“You should have told us before coming hom
Allison’s POV “Are you nervous, baby?” Leo asked, as he drove into the vast expanse of his parents' estate.The further we went into the wide area of land, the more unnerved and intimidated I was. I couldn't help but wonder if they'd like someone from a different social status like me, given how wealthy and influential their family was.“Baby, you are not giving me a response,” Leo's voice drifted into my ears again, as he gave my hand a soft, reassuring squeeze with his free one.Feigning a smile, I said. “I'm not, I was just thinking about stuff.”“You are clearly nervous, Allie,” Leo sighed. “And you really shouldn't be because my parents are cool and unproblematic, I mean it. When you get to know them, you may even think of them as cheesy.”“Really?”“Yes, baby. So don't be nervous to meet them, alright?” He held my hand and pressed a kiss to my knuckles as the car screeched to a halt.“Okay.”“So, let's go in?” He gestured to the gigantic three storey building that was his paren

Allison’s POV “This is great,” Leo uttered, as we strolled to the balcony.We had stayed the night at his parents' house after Ma'am Catherine's insistence. She had claimed that she wanted to get to know me more, and honestly, I really liked her.She was nice, funny, and extremely kind. She was also not prejudiced or haughty toward me even after finding out my background.When I told her about my mum's tragic demise, she had cried on my behalf before wrapping me in a tight hug.Leo was truly lucky to have been raised by a perfect mother like her.“Yeah, the view from up here is truly beautiful,” I agreed with him, as he wrapped his arms around me from behind, and pressed a kiss to my shoulder.“You are more beautiful, baby,” Leo replied, hands sliding down the new nightdress that Ma'am Catherine had given me last night, sending tendrils of wired pleasure through my body.Moaning, I flapped my eyes as I allowed the blissful feeling of erotic gratification permeate my senses. “W-We ca
Catherine's POV I nervously nibbled on my lower lip as I paced the large expanse of the living room. Sighing, I glanced at the wall clock and exhaled heavily when I saw the time. It was ten minutes past nine in the evening and Alessandro was yet to come home."Excuse me, ma'am," Someone spoke from behind me, and I turned to face them.The head maid of our household, Alice, grimaced as she fiddled with her fingers."Yes, any problem?" "Should I place the food in the refrigerator?" She asked, and my heart cut as a bitter realization struck me.Just like in the past, Alessandro was really going to be absent on our wedding anniversary.It wasn't just an ordinary anniversary; it was our third marriage anniversary and according to what I read on a website some years back, three was a lucky number that signified prosperity.Thus, I had gone over the top by preparing a variety of dishes that I was sure he liked.Since he rarely ate at home nowadays, I had secretly called his grandmother beca
Catherine's POV "W-What are you doing, Alessandro? Please I'm not in the mood," I begged, as he loosened the belt of my bathrobe. He paid no attention to my protests and just smiled wickedly before forcing my bathrobe open, and exposing my nakedness."You are my wife and your sole duty in my life is to ensure that I'm always sexually satisfied," He spat, unbuckling his belt and getting rid of his pants.Interesting. So now, I was his wife because he was in need of a release.As much as I wanted to have the old Alessandro back, I didn't want him like that.He was a predator while I was his prey that was shivering with fear as he pried my legs open.At that moment, I realized that begging him wasn't going to do anything, so I just decided to lie down as take it.He was right.My job was to give him sex whenever he wanted whether I was in the mood for it or not.After all, I lived under his roof and he bore all my responsibilities because I was his housewife.It was my role to ensure th
