Drake

I watched the tornado of emotions sweep over her face as my words registered in her head at last.

“Oh! I hope we can end this charade after a month.” She rose to clear the table, looking a little upset. What had I done now? Shouldn’t she feel honored that I wanted her so much? Yet she chose not to satisfy me.

I followed her around, helping her clean up. This was something I had never done in my life. In fact, I had never helped with any household chore. There were staff at home to take care of those.

“I can help with the dishes.” I eyed the few lying in the kitchen sink. Surely they wouldn’t be a problem, and Daniella would melt at my gesture. She might kiss me for a start, and I would carry on thereafter.

Daniella raised an eyebrow at me. “Sure. Go ahead.” She stepped aside to arrange the leftovers in the refrigerator.

I scratched my chin, wondering where to store the rinsed dishes. I hadn’t even watched Mom do them.

“You can rinse them and place them in the dishwasher.” She

    DrakeI couldn’t control the wild thumping in my heart. Strangely, she agreed to stay the night with me so easily. I had expected her to fight tooth and nail on this. After her dinner, Mom rested, and we returned to the reception party. “Thank you for agreeing to stay. I’m so glad Mom liked you.” Daniella smiled as we walked down hand in hand towards the elevator. “She wants us to get married in a month or two! Do you realize that?” “I know. We’ll see after returning from Greece. There’s a slight change in the plans. We’ll go next weekend.” “Oh, how much will it cost?” I felt annoyed. Did she really think I would accept money from her? “It’s free for you. We’ll fly in our private jet.” “Wow! I’m so glad to have a loaded fiancé.” She chuckled, and I rolled my eyes at her. “That’s a prerequisite these days, right? A guy has to be loaded if he wants a steady relationship with a beautiful woman.” I watched the fleeting expressions on her face. “No, you’re wrong. I was just kiddin

    DaniellaAfter ten minutes, Drake came rushing towards us. “Mom, can’t come down. She wants you to visit her in her room, Daniella.” I gaped at him. What was wrong with his mom? “Oh!” “Yes, go to her room and meet her,” insisted Grandpa Nelson. “Do you want me to call the doctor, Drake?”“No, Mom said she’s better.” Drake held out his hand for me to take. It wasn’t a loving gesture, but to ensure I didn’t flee without meeting his mom. I placed my hand on his, feeling awkward with his entire family watching. Drake smiled and led me away from them towards the elevator. “Is your mom unwell? I can meet her later, Drake.” My heart thumped with apprehension, but he didn’t release my hand. “She’s better now. She wants to meet you. What’s stopping you from meeting my mom?” He sounded annoyed, and his grip on my hand tightened. The elevator doors opened, and he led me ahead. “I don’t want to lie to your mom, Drake. It hurts me to deceive the only ones who love us the most.”He sighed and

    Daniella We walked towards the white gazebo, elegantly positioned against the breathtaking backdrop of towering mountains.“Wow, it’s so romantic!” said Julia, having never seen so much opulence in her life.This time, even I had to agree. “I know, right?” However, my gaze searched for the one and only guy who had turned my life upside down a few minutes ago. I didn’t know what to expect from this Grecian vacation. My eyes sought him out as he stood by his brother, looking dashing in a navy tuxedo. How could someone be drop-dead gorgeous and yet look goofy at the same time? He winked as if he hadn’t threatened me to sign a deal with him. I rolled my eyes and looked away while his gaze followed me around. It caused goosebumps to erupt on my bare arms. On the other side of the groom was Dominic, clad in the same navy tuxedo. I was about to update Julia about Dominic’s interest in her when I saw the two of them locked in a staring contest. “Earth to Julia!” whispered Brynne, bringin

    Daniella“I’m not signing anything.” I glared at him with disgust. He might be crazy, but I wasn’t.He fumed at my defiance. “Then you leave me with no choice, Daniella.”Before I could realize his intentions, he leaned in and smashed his lips to mine. His fingers tangled in my hair as he held me captive. He bit my lower lip, but I pursed my lips together, refusing entry.“Daniella..” The urgency in his tone made my breath hitch. Yet I didn’t give in.His hand inched downward from my waist. Moisture pooled between my legs as I waited for his touch. His hand trailed down to my thighs, hoisting the dress to grab my exposed ass, clad in a lacy thong. His touch scorched me, and a gasp escaped my lips.It was exactly what he was waiting for. His tongue slipped inside my mouth, colliding with mine. I could feel his desperation, as if he needed me to breathe instead of air.Hot, molten need coursed through my body, ready to explode as his tongue wreaked havoc inside my mouth. I tried hard to

    Daniella Julia watched her surroundings in awe. The natural beauty of the place, the unparalleled backdrop of the mountains, and the cascading waterfall in the beautifully landscaped garden added to its charm, but my gaze was more on the car ahead of me. Did Drake know I was behind him? My phone buzzed with an incoming call from Mom. I knew she was worried. “Yes, Mom. We just reached the resort. I’ll send you a few pictures of the event later.” “Your boss had sent a car for you, Dani. It arrived half an hour after you left home. Drake was here too, for you.” My eyes widened at the information. “Oh.” Later, Julia glanced at me, and I updated her. “Wow! We’re VIP guests!”We walked towards the reception desk in the main building while I looked around for Drake’s car. Where did he go? Did he tail me all the way from my house and overtake me at the last minute? But why would he do that?“Ms. Pierce and Ms. Mitchell, welcome to Sylvester’s Golf Club, Hudson Valley. There’s a double oc

    Daniella “Dani, will you handle the cash counter? Ava and I need to plan the theme for next week.” Mom walked to her office while I handled the sales at our shop. It had been a tiring day, but I was happy I could help Mom. After working for three days at our bakery, I realized how much hard work it involved. I was now happy with my decision to quit my job and help my mom. After overhearing my mom’s concerns about managing the business on her own, I had to act fast. Mom’s mental health was deteriorating, and she needed help to cope with the pressure. Why hadn’t I realized it before? My aunt wanted her to involve me in the business, but Mom admitted to being disappointed in me. It helped open my eyes finally and resign from Sylvester’s. It had an added advantage, though. I wouldn’t meet Drake again. But what about Brynne’s wedding? Would he be there at the wedding? How would I face him and his family?I dealt with the customers, and there was no time to ponder the situation I was in
