Enolaseventeen

The crippled Draven Dexter is left speechless after an older human couple forced their frustrated daughter on him in front of the marriage bureau. Equally helpless and needing a place to stay for a while, he agrees to marry the helpless Tessa Hudson and become a live-in son-in-law. He is bullied and humiliated but he endures it all. What Draven won't take is some lowly human bullying his wife, Tessa. In one of those extreme situations, the disabled live-in son-in-law is suddenly not disabled and is actually powerful, not only that, he is suddenly not human!

The known illegitimate son of the Owens finally has a crush on a lady, putting off all the rumors about his sexuality. His father happily allows him to meet his love interest despite the past between both families. Grace Williams, whose ambition is to belong to the high-class family, only accepts to be engaged to the illegitimate son, using him as a ladder to achieve her goal by sleeping with the legitimate son, her fiancée’s bother, and making sure she gets pregnant for him. Now, she is pregnant, and at the right time, when the will has to be read out and properties shared between the two sons of the Owen, table turns, and it turns out her fiancé is a legitimate son and the head of the family. She is in disarray and plans to pin the pregnancy on her fiancé by plotting to sleep with him for the first time in two years. She is in the dark about his own secrets too as she is desperate to get a share of his riches and respect that comes with being the wife to the family head.

Mia who had sat down on the pile of her clothes with her now dried body, looked about distraught. She beat herself up over and again at her stupidity. “I shouldn’t have allowed him anywhere close to me.” Her eyes were reddened, and her lips pouted as she was about to cry. In such an intense moment, she forgot there were to be no strings attached, and everything was to be transactional. Holding onto the pain and embarrassment of the night, she vowed never to allow herself to fall too cheap for his deliberate deception. Mia built a wall around her delicate heart, she should have known what she was signing up for when she said yes to the contract. Feeling the need to yell, Mia grabbed her pillow, holding it tightly against her face, she screamed into it, tears falling down her face and wetting her pillow. “I did it all for Lucio.” She convinced herself when the memory from earlier came rushing back. “I am doing it all for Lucio.” She repeated, and it became a mantra. ****** Reynaldo Davies, the first and only son of The Davies, finds himself in a constricted situation of choosing a wife, a command made clear by his Father, Mr Davies, on turning sixty, otherwise, young Davies would forfeit his inheritance to his younger sister. He makes a business proposal with Mia, his cook, who has no expectation of any kind, coming from the fling Reynaldo. In desperation, she agrees but only on the condition that certain lines are drawn and rules are kept. All is fair and clear until Celine, Reynaldo’s high school friend, comes into the picture. His mother had arranged an engagement for them against Reynaldo’s persistence in dating his cook, “acting as his girlfriend”. Would this act bloom into something beautiful? What would be the fate of Mia? Would Celine succeed in her quest for love? Will he gain his inheritance?
