Alexander stood before her, his long hair hiding part of his face. He looked devilishly handsome and her heart contracted.
"About last night..." Samantha blushed but was abruptly interrupted by Alexander.
"Last night was a mistake." He said curtly.
Samantha stared at him. She couldn't believe her ears. "I beg your pardon?"
"Last night was a mistake. We shouldn't have done it." He repeated, his face expressionless. "So think nothing of it."
Samantha's eyes filled with tears as the sting of his words hurt her. How could he say that? Was she just there to while away his time? Last night was perfect for her. It was the best and he ruined it.
"Get out," She said bitterly.
"I am sorry Sam but we shouldn't have done it."
"Don't you dare call me that and get out, damn you!" She yelled. She didn't know she had much venom in her. She watched as Alex hesitated before leaving.
"No! No! No!" She chanted. How could she be so stupid? She thought what they had was the beginning of a beautiful marriage but she was wrong.
She was used as a one-night fling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Samantha Sinclair was aware of arranged marriages, knowing that her elder sister was into one. What she did not know was that it was going to be her fate as well.
She was going to marry Alexander; the son of a business tycoon. He was a total stranger and they had never spoken a word to each other, yet she was going to marry him not for love or business but for the silly reason that their fathers were best of friends and wanted to keep the two families close.
The marriage was going to be a disaster, they both knew it. Samantha did not know what to do with Liam; her high school sweetheart who believed she betrayed him and Alexander was worried about Scarlett, his model fiancee knowing how crazy she was.
If they both went ahead with the wedding, will their vow count if they don't mean it or will it give them a chance to stay married and be with their partners??

HEREMAKONO ( AWAITING HAPPINESS )
Nnadia had called her husband over ten times but to no avail. After what seemed like hours, she heard the sound of his car. Few minutes later he entered the living room. To her surprise, he passed right by her without sparing her a glance. She practically ran after him trying to ask about Mikes situation. She came close and tried touching his arm when he roared. "Don't even presume to touch me ever in your life". Dumbfounded, she asked " But why?" " Really?" He asked turning to face her with anger evident in his voice. And the confusion on her face only infuriated him even more. " Are you really going to pretend now? " He asked coming even closer. " Wow! You are such an amazing actress." He said. Clapping his hands. " But let me ask, don't you have one iota of shame in you? What kind of a woman are you anyways? I always knew you never had any feelings for me but still didn't expect you to stoop this low. How could you Nnadia? You pushed your husband out of your room only to bring someone else in his place? Even if you don't have respect or love for me, you should have at least thought about your status as a married woman." Tears trickled down her face for she was hurt beyond words. He turned to leave once more and she tried following. " Oh God! She exclaimed. Abdullah please wait, it's, it's not what you are thinking at all. Please let..." He shouted this time around silencing her. " In the name of Allah please don't speak, i detest your voice. And your face, your face only brings me pain. I'm gladly going to give you your freedom so you can be with him. Just don't let me see your face till then." Nnadia couldn't believe her eyes or ears. She has never seen him this angry before. He got it wrong. How could he even think she would ever give his place to someone like Mike? Earlier today she had thought that they were finally going to be happy. At this moment with his bitter words still echoing in her ears, she really doubted it now.Concluida

"Treat me like your wife. I want you to give me a chance, give this marriage a chance." He looks at me with those brilliant blue eyes of his.

I look up at him and our eyes meet. "You want me to give this marriage a chance?" He asks in a surprisingly soft tone. I nod. Yes. I want this more than anything in this world. He cages me between his strong arms and brings his face closer to mine. "Are you sure you can handle it, Marilyn?" He asks, I close my eyes because I'm scared now.

The quiet between us
You're staring again," he murmured without looking up. "I'm not," I said, even though we both knew I was. He turned his head slightly, those blue eyes flicking toward me - calm, calculating, and just a little amused. "Then stop memorizing my face." "Maybe I'm just trying to figure you out." "Good luck," he said quietly. "I haven't even figured myself out yet." Naomi didn't mean to notice him - the quiet boy who spoke like every word cost him something, whose hands looked like they'd learned to hold both violence and tenderness in the same breath. But Samuel Kings had a gravity to him, the kind that pulled you in before you even realized you were falling. His twin, Samantha, was the opposite - sharp, poised, and frighteningly still. She didn't speak unless necessary, and when she did, it was like a scalpel - clean, precise, and leaving a mark. "Emotions are a weakness," she told Naomi once . "Then why do you look sad every time he smiles?" Naomi asked. Samantha's gaze lingered for a moment too long before she turned away. "Because I know how it ends." The Kings twins arrived like a storm no one saw coming. They were beautiful, strange, and impossible to ignore. And for Naomi - the scholarship girl just trying to survive another session - they changed everything. One moment she was laughing with her best friend under the sun, and the next she was standing in the rain, realizing her heart had started keeping time with his. You make everything complicated," she whispered. "You make everything matter," he replied. But beneath the quiet smiles and the charged glances, there were secrets - The kings weren't running from trouble; trouble followed them like a shadow. "You can't save me, Naomi." "Then I'll stay with you until you save yourself." "You shouldn't." "I already did." Because some people don't just change your story; they rewrite it entirely. He was ink, she was light. Together they left star shaped like constellations
Love Comes Unexpected ✔
I quickly turned away from him, to get the hell out of the room. But he caught my arm and pulled me back into his chest. Shit. Fuck. He buried his face in my hair, arms enclosing around me and whispered into my ear, ❝I thought things between us were getting better, is this how your gonna lie and ruin it?❞ I could feel him smiling against my ears, his fingers gently raking through my hair. I didn't reply. This is exactly the situation I didn't wanna get into, cause I know I melt when he says shit like that. ❝You gonna give up resisting me now?❞ His lips barely touching my ears.

365 Days of Us
Alexander Carter adjusted his tie, jaw clenched as his grandfather's voice echoed through the marble dining room. "Alexander, you're twenty-seven. The tabloids call you a heartbreaker, but that stops now. I want to see you married before the year ends." Xander smirked, leaning back in his chair. "Married? To who, Grandfather? Should I pick a name out of a hat?" "You're not a boy anymore. It's time you settled down." His smirk faded. Love? Marriage? Not again. Not after her. He pushed back his chair, ignoring the way his grandfather's glare burned into his back. He didn't need love. He didn't need anyone. ________ The tray in Lily's hands shook as she tried to balance three glasses of water at once. "Lily, table seven!" her manager barked. She forced a smile, placing the drinks down. Her feet ached, her tips barely covered rent, and Emily's medical bills sat in a pile on her nightstand at home. Her little sister's cough had gotten worse last night, but there was no money for the new medication. She swallowed hard, whispering to herself: Just one more shift. Just one more day. Emily needs you strong.Concluida
