Isabella's point of view.Zachary turned himself in to the police the next morning. We woke up and he was nowhere to be found, all he had left was the simple note he wrote about where he was going to and what he was going to do.Jason drove us back to the penthouse, the news reporter made another news concerning the issue and it was almost like all was well in the world again. No one cared about Cameron being in the hospital for alcohol and pills poisoning, no one cared about the fact that Jason would have been in jail yesterday if not for the intervention of Zade.The dude appeared the moment I thought about him, all smiles. His face looked the same to everyone so they missed the ugly bruise at the side of the head."What happened?" I asked him once we were close to each other.He almost choked on his drink, "What do you mean?" He asked, after he dropped the wineglass on the table while staring at me intensely.I nodded my head towards the centre of attraction, "What happened there?
Isabella point of view.When I was younger, I hated the idea of being tied down to one person for the rest of your life, forgiving them every single time they did something wrong and starting all over again.A social ceremony to keep people down."So you prefer just dating? No strings attached?" Cameron had asked me the first time I talked about my view on marriage.I rolled my eyes at her, "I want a really committed relationship but not a marriage, something better than marriage," I had replied while thinking about the bliss one might enjoy just doing something like that.Cameron must have thought I had hit my head when I was a baby because she stared at me shocked at my choice of words. There was silence for the next few seconds, while she tried to expertly paint my toenails.I loved Cameron because I never felt like she was judging me. I could say whatever I wanted and feel absolutely no shame about it.I then wriggled my toes, admiration for the paint job Cameron had done rising u
Isabella point of view"Before you get mad, just know that this was your cousin's idea. Something she considered grand"This has got to be some sort of sick joke. Someone who knew something was obviously trying to make me sweat or perhaps they wanted my money."Breathe, just breathe," Cameron's voice was quite distant but it was my anchor while my heart rate skyrocketed and my palms became all sweaty. My breaths became heavier and suddenly I was gasping.The hand on my back was cool and it eased my panic attack a bit but it wasn't gone."No one is here for you, everything is going to be fine, we'll figure out who did this and make sure they get what's coming for them, I just need you to calm down," Cameron kept on talking though I wasn't responding, I could only look at her and choke on my words.We must have stayed there for hours because it surely felt like that but slowly everything started to ease up, it felt easier to breathe and my heart rate got lower.Cameron helped me to a se
Isabella's point of viewI promised to call Cameron's boyfriend the moment I had the time. Now I was stuck in a hug with my mother."I honestly thought you wouldn't come when we sent the letter, it was your foolish cousin's idea," She said into my hair and even when we weren't hugging anymore, she held unto my aunt.None of my foolish cousins were out though.She held unto my cheek and pinched it a bit, "I'm happy you're here," She said.The words were at the tip of my tongue honestly but I couldn't say them out. Shell shocked from the fact that I actually have not seen my mom for the past five years.My mom didn't look much different though, her hair was longer and she even added bangs that brought out her cheekbones and made her more beautiful. She was a bit shorter but perhaps it was because I was older now and a bit taller too."Mom," I choked out the words, "Is it true?" I asked scared of the answer though I could feel it was true.Was dad dead?My mom nodded, the smile on her fa
Jason's point of viewThe blond licked the rest of my cum from her face before smiling seductively back at me. She stared at me from underneath those long lashes and almost made me lose my resolve and fuck her again."Aren't you such a pretty little thing?" I asked her, placing my thumb in-between those plump pink lips of hers.She kissed my finger, "You make it easy to feel pretty," She said before standing up, her walk to the bathroom so captivating. The way she moved her waist would make a man die for her.Not me though. I had work to do and a daughter to take care of.I had forgotten what her name was, did I even know her name from the beginning or did I bid on her because of her amazing tits? I did not even know why I decided to have sex today? Was the thought of my brother laying his hands on Isabella enough to drag me over the edge and ruin my self-imposed celibacy of almost a year.I had no intentions of having anything to do with her ever again so I had no one to blame for th
Isabella's point of view.Zachary invited himself in. Sat on our couch like he owned the place and even got Cameron to give him a glass of apple juice.I watched him from where I stood, silhouetted by the shade from the kitchen. He looked different yet stayed exactly the same way he was years back. I wondered if...."Are you going to stand there all day or are we going to talk?" He finally asked after twenty minutes of absolute silence on all ends.I rolled my eyes at his words, "You could have called me, you don't have to show up like some sort of secret ninja or some shit like that," I replied dryly, my eyes darting from him to Cameron who sat on the other couch then to the staircase."And before you say anything, make sure you keep your voice down. I don't want to wake up my mom and cousins," I added the warning at the last minute.That made Zachary roll his own eyes, "I don't want to wake up my future mother-in-law, what kind of a person do you think I am?" He placed an hand on hi
Isabella's point of view."I got something, I got something," Cameron's voice was so loud it woke me up from my sleep before she barged into the room and jumped on the bed.I tried to turn away but she kept on interrupting me, "I got something, don't you want to know what it is?" She asked, her tone much softer this time.I was the type of person that got headaches when woken abruptly. Headaches that lasted for days on end and made me sick.Plastered on a fake smile and looked up at her, "What do you have?" I hoped it wasn't something from that boyfriend of hers because I would literally strangle her if it was.She smiled back at me, "Well the contract, the lawyers have been looking at it and they discovered the only loophole they could find in such a bonafide contract," Dressed in a fancy pink minidress and the necklace I had gotten her as a birthday gift, Cameron could not have looked more beautiful, "I hope Zachary has brothers or cousins."I nodded. He did. He had a twin brother w
Jason's point of view.Family dinners were not my sort of things. Family dinners at the Newman house where they invited people over and it was bound to be a disaster were not my sort of events to attend.I watched Zade pin a cute little pink bow on Amethyst's ponytail, he knelt down so he was close to her height and she could see his eyes. They seemed to be talking about something private, with all the whispers and giggles going around."You look so cute," He pinched her on the cheek before finally getting up and holding her hand.Amethyst was as pretty as her mom, a playful little thing at age four and quite smart for her age too. She was also cunning enough to get Zade to do things I said no to."She's not coming with me," I announced once they were close enough to me, "And I know you'll take care of her, make sure she goes to sleep at her bedtime and don't give her any candy," Instructions after instructions flew out of my mouth until Zade placed a hand on my shoulder."I know wha
