"Alora, I didn't mean to do that." I frowned.
"What do you mean? Do you regret it?
"Of course not. What are you talking about? I want you so badly, but I want you to feel something. I want you to enjoy it. I don't regret what I did but I'm sorry for not thinking about your feelings first. I won't force you to dress differently but I really can't ignore those guys when they look at you. I hope you understand that at least." He sounds frustrated and desperate.
"I won't stop you from touching me. And... Your kisses, I don't hate it. Somehow, I like the way you touch me and when you're near me, I feel safe. I don't know why but I feel like I already know you. I think I can trust you." What I said is true. I don't understand what's this feeling, but his scent is familiar. Luke pulled me into an embrace.
"Let's take this slow, okay? And thank you for trusting me. Tonight, is our engagement. I would l
After I cried my heart out, we got up then Luke pinched me on the cheek. I pouted my lips while he wiped my tears. "Alora, promise me that whenever you feel bad about something, if you're mad at me, if I did something you don't like or if I hurt your feelings, you will tell me okay? Don't keep it to yourself. And about Peggy, Emily and Nina, don't you think it's unfair that you don't consider them as your friends? I think you should also talk to them. You need to open up, I know they will understand you." Luke is right. The girls are always there for me. I just don't want anyone to let in my world because I'm afraid. I'm a coward. The door of the rooftop suddenly opened and when we looked back, the girls barged in. Nina is still panting. Maybe she run towards here. "Girls, what are you doing here?" I asked. "Well, Emily called and told me you run out of the classroom after kissing that guy. So, I was running around looking for you." Nina looks
After we chat, we went back to our class. I didn't see Luke the whole afternoon. I wonder where he is and what he's doing. The class is almost over, and the last subject is a group study. It means, the teacher is not around so the students will have to study together. I looked at my watch and it's 3 in the afternoon. 1 more hour and we're done. The party will start at 9pm so after class I still have 5 hours to prepare. Why am I getting nervous? Luke and I already talked about this. We just need to make it official. "Hey, princess. What's on your mind? I hope you're thinking of me." I was startled when I heard Luke. "You're here. But why didn't you look for me earlier? You said you'll find me." I pouted. "I want you to spend time with your friends. Don't worry I missed you too." He smiled before giving me a peck on the cheek. I blushed. I feel glad seeing him in front of me. "Before I forget, my driver will bring you to Northbay and another car will fo
After choosing my dress, Azalea packed the other 9 dresses for me to take home. Peggy and Emily also bought a dress for them to wear at the party. Then we bought Nina a dress as well. She doesn't want a new dress because it was too expensive. She was asking if we can lend her an old gown instead, but we decided to buy one for her. When we went out of Azalea, Peggy and Emily's driver are already waiting so we said our goodbyes and they left. We will see each other later anyway. I asked Nina to come to our house instead so we can go to the party together. We chat for a while, and we didn't notice that it's time for us to prepare. I started getting nervous. Only 2 more hours and I will be officially become Luke's fiancé. My heart is pounding nonstop and my whole body is getting tense. I took a deep breath to release my tension. Nina held my hand and smiled. I smiled back. We heard a knock on the door and to my surprise, it was my mother and sister. Nina smiled,
3RD PERSON POV "Luke, kiss me. I want you to kiss me." Alora slightly parted her lips and wait for his kiss. He pulled her body against his then brushed her lips with his and slid his tongue across her lips. She let out a deep breath in reaction to the wave of heat she felt. He gently brushed his tongue between her lips then passionately kissed her, stroking her tongue with his. He sucked her lips gently, as though he was tasting nectar in a flower. Then, with extreme urgency, he deepened the kiss by passing his tongue through her lips, fondling her tongue with his. She felt thrilled. Alora's body heat up and craved him. He heard a soft moan from her in response to his kiss. He then pulled back a little before he loses control. They were both panting after an intense kiss. "I think we're here. We'll continue later baby." Luke smiled teasingly. Alora blushed. She fixed her hair and make-up then signaled to Luke that she's ready. A re
ALORA POV Luke brought her to the top floor. It's the Royal Suite of the Candlewood Hotel. It occupies the whole 52nd floor of the hotel. Considered the largest suite in the country with approximately 19,346 square feet, boasting a 360-degree terrace, an 18-seat dining table, 6 bedrooms and bathrooms and an indoor pool. The suite also comes with extravagant extras like a five-headed shower, ultra-luxe Swedish DUX beds, on rotating platforms, of course, dressed in rare eiderdown comforters and Egyptian cotton linen, and Hermès amenities. He put her on the bed of the master's bedroom and sit on the side. She looked directly into his eyes but still no words from her. Her breathing was ragged. Her hand still on her chest. He held her hand and caressed her cheek with the other. "Baby, calm down. Would you like me to call a doctor?" He asked with a worried face. She shook her head and stared at him. She slightly parted her lips to say something, but no word
She was the daughter of a high ranking general. They were also considered one of the top 10 most powerful family in the country. However, she was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Her father started as a mere police officer. When she was young, her mother works as a secretary to Daniel Smith, owner and CEO of the Hoseki Empire. Mr. Smith allowed her mother to bring her and her brother at work because no one will look after them. From one of those days, she saw a little girl came with Mr. Smith and his wife. She was like an angel. She was pretty and cheerful. Everyone was happy to be around her. She was wearing an ocean blue knee length dress with a big ribbon at the back. She looks like a princess. Every time she arrives, mother looks so happy. She will always tell me that I should be like her. Prim and proper. Smart and classy. My admiration to her became anger. I envied her. I always asked father, why am I not born rich? Why would he choose to be a
LUKE POV I wanted to tell Alora the truth. But every time I see her having a panic attack, I feel scared. I need to consult a doctor for her. Like Sophie said, this might be our second chance. I really hope that when the time comes, she will understand what I did. I was dragged by my father and soon to be father-in-law to meet some people from the business world. I was talking to Andrew Cross, a young tycoon that owns a shipping company. We were chatting about his company, but I will always glanced at Alora. She was with my mom, her mother and sister. I'm glad she was slowly coming out of her shell. But I didn't expect what happened at the suite earlier. I was just worried, and I know she wouldn't want anyone to see her like that. I decided to take her to our suite so she can rest for a while. What happened wasn't my plan, but she was really breathtaking. When she put her fingers into my mouth and my hand on her breast, I couldn't control myself anymore.
The bathroom inside the master's bedroom is the largest one with a whopping 953 square feet complete with a diamond shaped soaking tub, marble and gold finishing’s, a plethora of luxurious cushions and has Hermes toiletries and perfumes in a lavish vanity. I looked myself in the mirror. Why am I feeling like this? I was the one who teased Luke earlier and now I was also the first one who invited him to join me in the shower. How do I really feel about him? Is it just lust or is this love? I am unable to differentiate the two for now. What I know is I don't want to be apart from Luke. I was the one who asked my parents to live with him. They didn't like the idea at first. My brothers were so against it. That's when I told them what happened. My father was fuming mad and wanted to call off the engagement, but I told them the truth. I told them I was the one who provoked him, and I wanted it. I saw my mom cried again but my sister had a different reaction. She w
