Paint My World Red Chapter 24 – Agree Or Disagree
(Red’s POV)The kids sitting on the floor looked like we had a book reading. Addie had to put the center table to the side to give the kids space, and they had to sandwich the four of them, my cousins, Leslie and her, on the couch while I sat on the loveseat, waiting for Aya.The sudden change in her decision excited the kids but worried me. Aya had not gone out of the bedroom for an hour, and when I went upstairs to check on her, I chickened out when I heard her crying. Addie went upstairs and promised me she would talk to her, and when she returned, she would follow her, so we could sit and talk about the wedding.Everyone went quiet, and even my heart stopped beating when Aya walked in our direction. Her eyes were puffy, and her nose was red as she sat beside me, forcing her lips to curve into a smile. She glanced at her cousins and mine, then at the children.“Can we call you mommy now?” Blue asked, his eyes wide as he waited for her answer.Katie, unsure of what was happening, lo
Paint My World Red Chapter 25 – How He Fell In Love
(Aya’s POV)“But you’re my wife,” Red muttered like he was testing me, his lips curving into a wicked smile.“Let’s not go there if you don’t want to wake up with a black eye,” I warned him. “I told you, you’re not my type,” I lied, but it scared me, thinking about how to stop myself if he touched me.Addie pressed her lips tighter because she knew Red had a strong effect on me. Although I would deny it and continue to lie about my gender preference, I had no idea until when I could hold myself from touching him. I didn’t love him, but any woman would fall for his gorgeousness and hotness. If I didn’t need a job and I had no respect for the dead, I would probably be one of those women who would lie naked in his bed.“This is crazy,” I murmured, upset not with Red but with myself. One minute I hated Red, the next, I thought of him naked.Red stared at me worriedly, afraid that I had changed my mind. He heaved a sigh and smiled apologetically at me.“You know what, Mike, just ready the
Paint My World Red Chapter 26 – It Will Rain
(Aya’s POV)“Does that sound believable already?” Red asked, smirking at them.It was as if I was standing on the foot of the mountain, having an avalanche and all the snow fell on me. It was believable because Red almost got me. Embarrassed, humiliated that I allowed to fall myself into his act, and angry, when Red turned to me, my palm instantly landed on his left cheek, slapping him hard.“What’s that for?” He asked angrily, his palm on the cheek I hurt.“I told you I’d kill you if you touched me without my permission,” I screamed angrily, breathing hard and turning my back on him.“Where are you going?” He panicked.Addie and Mike stood up, alarmed that I walked toward the door.“We’re not yet done,” Red snarled. “I’m asking you, Aya, where are you going?” He asked, following me, but halted abruptly when I stopped and turned around.“Weekend, remember? I have work!” I growled.“Are you sure this is the right decision? They’re not married yet, but they’re likely ready to kill each
Paint My World Red Chapter 27 – I Want Red
(Aya’s POV)“Lucy!” I called when I saw her walking toward her office.I glanced at the puff pastry with custard and strawberries I baked and designed with fancy heart-shaped biscuits before dashing to my supervisor. She stopped walking and raised her eyebrows, waiting for me to come closer.“Can I have another shift today?” I chewed on my lower lip, hoping she would say yes. If she allowed me, it would be my third shift already.She chuckled. “Is it because of Chef Heidi?”“Yep!” I grinned, wiggling my eyebrows.Chef Heidi was not a regular cook in the restaurant, only when there was a VIP or special occasion. Toward the end of my first shift, I heard she would be here later. As to who was the special guest, I didn’t ask. She taught Culinary Arts education at an elite university in the country, and learning from her in that school was definitely out of my budget, so whenever she was here, no matter how tired I was from my two shifts, I always took my chance.When I called Addie and L
Paint My World Red Chapter 28 – Conventional But Uncoventional
(Aya’s POV)“Mommy, can Red be my daddy, too?” Katie asked, wrapping her arms around my waist and raising her head to look at my face.If she were asking me for an ice cream or a new toy, I could answer her question, but my little girl wished for a father to be part of our lives when no one was ready. I imagined getting married but someday, not right away.I was too focused on the kids that I did not notice the door opening. Sapphire dashed to Katie and held her hand, tugging her toward her other siblings. The two girls giggled as they joined the others, and Violet led them to the table.“Aya,” Red’s baritone voice startled me.I should be furious at him for including the kids in his crazy plan, but my heart was thumping crazily inside my chest, unsure why I was feeling emotional and where it was coming from. Slowly, I turned around and saw Red standing gorgeously.“What’s this, Red?” I choked, fighting my tears and pretending to be mad.“This wasn’t my idea, but Ariana’s. I’m so bad
Paint My World Red Chapter 29 – Suddenly Triplets
(Aya’s POV)It was a quick kiss because the children ran toward Red and me, giggling happily as they embraced us. I chuckled, reaching out for the table napkin on the side and wiping the corners of the twin’s and Katie’s mouths because of the strawberry and chocolate-covered cake balls they ate.“I like this, mommy,” Onyx said, biting the one still in his hand.Mommy.They didn’t come from my womb, but my whole body was filled with joy, and I didn’t know why I was too excited that a few hours from now, it wouldn’t be awkward for me to hear them calling me their mommy. The tears I was holding rolled down my cheeks.Blue gasped. “Oh no! You made mommy cry, Onyx.”I chuckled, wiping the tears and sniffling as I shook my head. My heart was so full, unsure where the happiness was coming from because it was overflowing inside me. I glanced at Red when he called me, extending his hand to go with him and meet our family.“Dad,” I muttered nervously.My father only smiled and hugged me. I knew
Paint My World Red Chapter 30 – Savor The Moment
(Aya’s POV)Dante fetched us from home and drove us to Rose Hills after breakfast. We had to go there early because Mike mentioned I had to sign the prenuptial agreement before the wedding. I didn’t need to explain it to my family, especially to dad, because they understood. I was just worried because even last night, when we came home to the apartment, he didn’t say much except he knew that there was something special about Red and me.When we arrived, and Dante stopped the SUV in front of the villa, I did not wait for him to open the door. Even Addie and Leslie went out of the car and helped Katie get out of her child's seat, but we let him help my father.“Wow!” Leslie opened her mouth in awe as she looked at the luxurious home of her boss. “This is more than winning a lottery, Aya.”Addie had a different concern. “You walked on that hill and from that gate to here?”I laughed, nodding at her. I could not believe it was only recently that I thought I would die in coming here, hopin
Paint My World Red Chapter 31 – Paint My World
(Red’s POV)“Aya’s here, Red. Why do you look so nervous?” Liam chuckled. “Your bride won’t run away.”I knew that because Ariana and Mike kept updating me on what was happening inside. Aya had signed the prenuptial agreement already, and she was sent to the guest room to prepare her for this event. The plan was a simple wedding in my office followed by a lunch with our families with Sherrilyn. Still, I could not ignore the fact that I already stole Aya’s dream wedding, if she had, and tied her to me, so I asked my sister for help, at least giving her a wedding to remember.Ariana told me last night to relax and leave everything to her and Mike while Liam and I were busy in the online meeting with the board last night. The event coordinator she hired had her staff work overnight, turning the covered swimming pool area into a paradise.When the music began, while I walked the red carpet adorned with flowers looking like they sprouted on the side, I could not help thinking about the gra
