Chapter 41

Frederick POV


I got to the mansion late in the evening. The environment was quiet and neat. I wasn't expecting to see the maids or little kids running around though, but everywhere seemed very much unusual.


I knocked thrice on the door. It seemed like no one was forthcoming. Maybe that is why everywhere was super quiet. I put my hands in my pocket, sighed, and began walking in the direction of my car.


"You should have put a phone call across before coming here", Lois said.


"Yes. I thought since it was late, they'll be home. Where would two old people want to go to at this time of the night", I said jokingly.


"Do not underestimate your parents' sir. They may be old but they are sure in love", Lois said, giggling.


The statement he made reminded me of Kharis. My parents were able to find love, can't they let me find love as well? I thought.


I took giant strides to the door of my car. Just as I was about to open the door, I saw the maid peep open the door of the mansion and peeped out.


"Good evening sir Frederick", she said.


"I've been knocking and standing here for a really long time", Mirabel".


"I'm really sorry sir, we were in the backyard when you knocked. Your parents told us someone was at the door when we came to the dining table".


"You mean my parents are close to the door?".


"Yes sir", she answered with a puzzled facial expression.


I walked into the house angrily and met my parents munching on a pint of popcorn. The nerve of them to sit comfortably and enjoy a snack even after being the cause of my frustrations, unhappiness, and worry.



"Good evening mom".


"Good evening dad".


As I greeted my parents, my mom stood up from the couch. She walked up to me, opening her arms for a hug but I ignored her and walked past her.


"Frederick your mom is trying to welcome you"


"I am not interested in any of that, I want us to talk".


"Frederick, this is my house and I wouldn't let you disrespect me the way you did at your own house", my mom said and walked back to the couch.


"Do you both even care about my happiness"?, I asked, pointing to my chest and putting the other hand in my pocket.


"What's going on son", my dad asked.


I tousled my hair in frustration and maintained eye contact with my parents. After two minutes of silence and staring, I spoke up.


"You both want to tie me down to a woman I do not love for the rest of my life", I said.


I paused, took a few steps backward, and sat on a free chair close to them.


"You are both so in love. I'm sure dad loves to wake up to you beside him every morning", I said.


My dad immediately smiled and held my mother's hands as a gesture that matched 'that is true, I love waking up to you every morning'.


I shrugged and went to pick popcorn from the plate on the table. I walked back to the chair and lay comfortably. I didn't know where to start to express my feelings.


"Are you not in love with Ivy", my dad asked.


"Hunnie, if he gives the lady a chance, he'll grow to love and adore her. But your son here has refused to pick up her call or even set eyes on her, my mom said.


I could see my dad frown.


"That's because I'm in love with someone else", I said and walked away to the kitchen. I intended on getting a glass of water, I was tense at the moment.


Not long, I saw my mom walk into the kitchen.

"Ivy is an amazing woman. She's smart, independent, and caring", my mom said.


"So, what do you want me to do with this information?"I asked, dropping the glass of water on the table.


"How about you get to know her better. You ignore her too much and that is what is blinding you from seeing her good side".


"Mom, can't you be happy for me. I want to bring the woman I love home, to you and dad".


She didn't respond to my last statement. She only shook her head and walked out of the kitchen.


I knew all hope was lost then. There was nothing more I could say or do to convince my parents to let me marry the woman I wanted. I decided to do it my way and go ahead with Kharis. I wasn't going to show up at the wedding or even talk to Ivy about the wedding anymore.


I stood up from the kitchen and walked out of the house to my car without uttering a word to my parents.


Kharis POV


After saying bye to Pa Theo, I made my way to the helicopter. I didn't want to leave Ghana, at least, without settling things with Frederick.


"Good evening Carson", I greeted Frederick's pilot.


"Good evening ma'am. You look very bright and beautiful even in the dark", he said.


"That's a very nice compliment Carson. You have made my evening", I replied.


"Hope you had a good time"? he asked and held my waist to assist me in getting into the plane.


"Yes. Ghana is such a wonderful place. While people run off to Canada, Greece, Dubai, I'll prefer to run off to any African country", I answered.


"You seem like an interesting woman, he said, winking at me.


I didn't like where the conversation was heading and I didn't want to keep leading him on.


"Thank you", I said and began scrolling through my phone.


I looked through the window and saw Frederick walking towards the helicopter. I smiled and waved at Pa Theo. He was such a nice man and also a father figure to Frederick.


I heard Carson greet Frederick as he entered the plane but I became surprised when Frederick chose to ignore him.

Was he still angry, I thought.


Not long after the helicopter took off, I became dizzy and placed my head on Fredrick's chest. I didn't want him to leave me, ever.


I began thinking about everything we shared in Ghana and how much more I wanted to share with him, and then, I slept off.


I realized we got back to the mansion when Frederick woke me up from sleep. I could remember him saying something about stepping out for a few minutes to handle a few things.


It felt good to be back home though. I walked upstairs with our luggage. I lay on the bed 😴 after a long trip. When was the food coming, I thought.


Frederick gave me lots of mixed signals and emotions while we were in Ghana. There were moments when he was happy and sometimes, he was sad or bothered about something.


There was this time I woke up and searched the house for him. Want to know where I found him?, At the pool. And he wasn't playing with the water or going through his phone, he was deeply lost in thoughts.


I wondered if maybe he was worried about us or work. I felt bad when I realized he didn't want to talk to me about it.


Our hearts are in sync, right? Why was he hiding things from me? I had opened up to him about the crazy experiences I have had, about my fears and worries. So, what was wrong with talking about his own?


"Kharis! Baby! Baby, where are you"?


I heard Frederick shout from the living room. Oh great, he is back.

"I'm right here babe, '' I said and opened my bedroom door to go meet him.


I was startled when I met him already standing by the door.

"Hey, are you okay? You do not look too good".


"You do know that I love you right", he asked, holding my hands so tight.


"Come here baby", I said and hugged him.


"What's wrong Frederick? You are scaring me" I said, my eyes becoming watery.


"I just want to lay in bed all night, very close to you", he said.


I nodded my head in response.


"Are you in trouble", I asked, guiding him into my room.


"Some people do not want us together", he said.


"That's strange. Is there a reason for this", I asked.


He was quiet for a while and then, he kissed my lips. He kissed me so badly that we lay on the bed together, still sharing a kiss.


"Ride me baby girl", he whispered into my ears.


I moved from his lips to his nipple, sucking, licking, and dragging. Teasing him made me wet. Hearing him groan and call me sexy names made my insides moist.


"I'm your baby forever?", I asked him.


"Yes, you are, forever".


I shifted my g-string and sat on top of his lap. I gave him a sexual stare and put his dick inside of me.

I couldn't help but moan when I felt him inside of me. I adjusted my waist and began moving like the ocean, back and forth. Grinding him till he started moaning my name.


I took his hands behind and placed them above his head 🤤. I wanted to dominate and make him feel helpless. I kept bouncing, taking my pussy hole out and into his very hard dick. I could see my juice drip down his dick.


I untied my hair and rotated my back, slowly. I bent my body over so my breast was directly touching his chest. This sent shivers all over my body.


I could feel his dick harden, his body tense. As I began releasing juice, he released juice as well.


"Oh baby, you poured all over me," I said, biting my lips".

"How about another round", I asked.


"You haven't been a good girl, my baby. No second round for you" he said and lifted me onto his body. He carried me into the bathroom so we could shower together.


"I love you so much Frederick", I said. My face leaned on his back as he carried me like his baby.
