MasukCassandra's POVMy brain fried instantly… what in the realm of decency was happening right now? My heart beat skyrocketed in a second as my entire face turned beet red, and my ears turned beet red.His cock was in my hand. I could feel the warm thick piece of his flesh. It was more than a piece of flesh.. I gulped and my throat went dry....I didn't want to, but my mind had already betrayed me, and it did.Ahh, at least when my body betrayed me, my mind remained loyal, but tonight was a different story. I was already imagining this chunk of flesh feeling him in my grasp. He was not even hard yet, and my little fingers couldn’t wrap all the way around him. The skin was velvet-soft over steel, the heat of him pulsing against my palm like a living thing. A single vein ran along the underside, and I felt it throb when my grip tightened on pure reflex. I couldn’t help myself but squeezed. He grunted, his eyes turned cold...I couldn’t breathe. Was I really holding his cock in my hand?
Cassandra's POV The door creaked open, with the lights from the hallway illuminating the room, falling on the bed. I remembered the contract clause that we were to share the same room and bed, non-negotiable. Basically, the terms said that I was to fulfil the role of being his wife during this period without complaints. My stomach squirmed at the thought. "This isn't that bad," I muttered, then sucked in a deep breath before walking into the room, shutting the door behind me. The lights were turned off, so the entire room was dark. The only lights filling the room were from the security lights streaking into the room from the glass windows and the bathroom. The door was left slightly ajar with lighting spilling into the bedroom. Yet the room was still dark. I roamed around the wall trying to find the light switch. The switch clicked on and the room was lit. I needed to use a shower, since Alaric was using our bathroom, so I planned to use one of the guest rooms
Cassandra's POV“I have one condition,” I forced the words out. Rubbing my butt on the seat to find a more comfortable spot that makes it easier to ignore the heat that lingered between us.The air was tense from an unspoken tension between us. The calmer he looked the more annoying it was for me.He raised a brow. “Do you really think you are in a position to bargain, Sunshine?” I was stunned by his reply for a moment. I almost forgot about the erotic tension between us. He was truly infuriating, and I did my bloody best not to flip. I wondered what my body found attractive in a man this annoying. His only good physical point was his body. I wanted to flip the damn table in the end my impulses won.“Damn right I am,” I snapped, leaning in so he could see I wasn’t backing down. “You want your kid to have some fake stable mommy for a year? You want the whole world drooling over our perfect little family photos? Then yeah, I’m bargaining, you controlling prick. It only works if
Cassandra's POV“Then you will have to be Mrs Von Duvall for a very long time, Sunshine.” He chimed with a soft smile after having me cornered. The words rang in my ears. He was not going to let me go this easily.I stared at the title again, the words blurring for a second before they started to sink in.POST-NUPTIAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN PARTY A AND PARTY B.I wondered if this was the same terms as the prenuptial agreement Priscilla found. It meant one thing. I did not sign the prenuptial agreement. That gave me a sense of relief. At least I was now fully aware of what I was getting into.My fingers tightened around the edges until the paper crinkled. Alaric sat across from me. His legs were crossed, fingers lazily twirling the drink in his hand. He was watching me like this was just another Tuesday negotiation. His eyes remained calculative and calm the entire time.I gritted my teeth. “Why are you so stubborn about keeping me in this marriage? You do not have to keep a contract wife.
Cassandra's POVAlaric had his assistant, Nathan, come down to the hospital to handle all the discharge information. The process was fast, and soon we were out of the hospital.By the time we walked into the car to leave the hospital, it was already close to midnight. “I am sorry the procedure took longer than necessary, sir,” Nathan apologised when we were both seated in the back seat. I felt bad for Nathan. He was working overtime because of me.Alaric seemed like the kind of boss who drained the life force from staff.“It is fine,” Alaric muttered, then his gaze drifted towards me. I was currently having a battle with the seat belt. He let out a scoff and then leaned towards me.His breath fanned my face as he broke into my personal space. I held my breath, staring at him. “You are doing it wrong,” he muttered, then pulled the seat belt from my hand. His cologne wafted around me.He always smells so good and tempting. I had the urge to bury my nose in his neck and just drink in his
Cassandra's POV Everything happened in a blur the moment panic hit. I never knew I was this tied to the baby, but the moment I saw the blood dripping down my legs, real fear struck. After running on adrenaline for over an hour I found myself lying face up on a hospital bed in the middle of the night. The hospital room was silent aside from the sound of the air conditioning unit humming. The air smelled like sterile disinfectant and antiseptic. I always hated the smell of drugs, and if it were left to me, I wouldn’t want to stay in this hospital any longer, but I didn't have a say in this matter. This was my fault. I was the one who pulled up that crazy stunt that led to the haemorrhage. The door was pushed open, followed by a chatter, my gaze immediately shifted to Alaric, who just stepped in with Vera. Their voices faded as soon as they entered the room. Vera's gaze settled on me, "How are you feeling now?" She asked me with a polite smile which wasn
