I tried to leave since he clearly didn't want me in the room but he didn't move. He remained in that position, taunting me, trapping me, asking me to get out even though he made it impossible for me to do so.

He was still staring into my face, looking intently like he could see right through me. I didn't like this. I knew he could see the fear in my eyes.

He smelt vaguely of vodka, or at least what I thought vodka smelt like. But he didn't look drunk. His eyes were clear and he was neither stuttering nor staggering. He was breathing into my face and with no air left to inhale, I was breathing him in. It seemed like such an intimate position, for someone whose aim was to antagonize me.

"I want to leave now," I said, feeling uncomfortable.

He didn't move.

Instead, I saw the small trace of a smile grace his lips.

"You're actually not that bad," he said, his entire demeanor changing.

I had no idea what he was talking about.

"You have a face that's worth looking at. I was mistaken. That's something." He rubbed a hand over my cheekbone as he spoke, once again acting like I was an artwork he was about to purchase and not a human being.

"Who asked you to come here?" He asked, the serious look returning.

Was this guy bipolar or something?

"The maids. Natalie." Maybe he was drunk because I'd just told him that a minute ago.

"Natalie!" He screamed into my face. If I hadn't backed into a wall, I would have fallen out of fright.

I was just about to ask him why he'd screamed Natalie's name into my face when I saw her run right to the door of the room and stop, curtsying as she did.

"Yes, master."

He didn't turn to her. His face was still pressed to mine as if he wanted to see every single reaction of mine to his words.

"You brought her to my room, correct?"

"Yes, master."

"May I know why?"

"She's your new wife sir so I thought it was only right to…"

"You thought," he said sharply, but there was an edge to his voice that even Natalie noticed.

"What is my rule?"

"No one is allowed into your room."

"And yet you brought her here."

"But she's your wife…"

"And I gave you a rule which I expected you to follow. You made the room to her liking, arranged her things in it, and even brought her belongings in here."

Even though he wasn't addressing me, the way he was looking at me while he spoke made me feel the exact way I assumed Natalie was probably feeling.

"I'm so sorry, sir. I sincerely apologize," she said, curtsying so low, that I was sure she would fall on her face.

He kept watching me, taking every one of my reactions into consideration.

Something was unsettling about him. Not just his creepy gaze, but it felt more sinister than that.

"You may leave."

Natalie curtsied and left, not before giving me a sorry look.

I wish I could go with her.

Finally, he moved back a little and I breathed a sigh of relief. Being so close to him for that long was doing so many things to me that I didn't understand.

However, he didn't leave or ask me to leave. He ran his eyes over me twice before he smiled with satisfaction.

"Turn around."

I did as he asked, even though I felt a little weird about it.

"I suppose you probably just had terrible stylists. You're pretty good-looking," he said.

"Thank you?" I said sarcastically and immediately wondered where my boldness was coming from.

Somehow I knew that he wasn't going to do anything to hurt me.

"You'll do," he said, nodding. "You'll do just fine."

I frowned. I'd do?

I hoped it wasn't what I was thinking.

  • Choosing My Billionaire Husband   Final Part

    Five years later: Cassie’s POV:I stared into the glittering eyes of my baby girl as she struggled to make them stay open while I read her a bedtime story. She was just as stubborn as her father, fighting sleep even though that was what she needed. “And they lived happily ever after, the end,” I said. By the time I was done with the bedtime story, sleep had won. Although my daughter was asleep, I couldn’t stop watching her I rubbed her head and stared into her face, smiling when I saw the close resemblance she shared with her father. “You’re lucky I married a handsome man,” I whispered, still not ready to leave my baby girl’s side. “I love you,” I said and kissed her on her forehead, before turning to leave the room. “Jeez!” I gasped when I saw Davis standing by the door with his hands in his both pockets, smiling down at me. I turned back immediately to see if I had woken Ivory up, but luckily she was such a deep sleeper. “You scared me,” I whispered. “Come,” he said, stretchi

  • Choosing My Billionaire Husband   One Hundred and Five

    Davis’s POV:Do what’s right. I knew what that meant, and I didn’t like it. But she asked me to do it for her. How could I possibly say no to her? There was nothing I couldn’t do for her. I realized that now. The fact both warmed and scared me. Never had anyone had this much power over my choices but I had to admit it did feel strangely good. Here I was, driving down to meet Kayden, but this time with a different intention from what I would have liked to do. I was quite surprised to still see him there, sitting on the same swing bench he had been sitting on several hours ago when I found my wife next to him. This was going to be extremely difficult. I took a deep breath. I had to be really careful not to flip out and ruin the whole plan. “This is for you, baby,” I whispered to myself before leaving the car. Kayden flinched a little when he saw me approach, but when he saw there was nowhere to run, he remained where he was sitting and pretended to look unbothered by my presence

  • Choosing My Billionaire Husband   One Hundred and Four

    Davis’s POV: I don’t know how long I was passed out for, but when I woke up, I found myself alone in a big bland room that had no windows. It didn’t take long for everything to click into place. Even though my head was pounding like it was about to explode, I could still put the pieces together. I had been kidnapped. It was a bit embarrassing though. I was supposed to be experienced and intelligent. How could I have let myself be tricked so easily? I remained on the floor where I was and hoped my head would stop hurting so bad. What happened to using chloroform to make me unconscious? Why did my attacker have to go old school and knock me out with a blunt object? It felt personal, like whoever had done it, purposely wanted me to feel pain. I should have never underestimated him. Of course the timelines clicked in place. Why did I let Lisa come with me? He had cleverly used her to get to me. Now I was here, I wondered what he planned to do with me. He had almost taken my life the

  • Choosing My Billionaire Husband   One Hundred and Three

    Davis’s POV:Surprisingly, my relationship with Cassie changed for the better after my few hours stay in the hospital. She felt terrible for what she had done, but the action made her see how dangerous it was to believe one side alone. It was just as I suspected. Her father had gone ahead to change the contract entirely. It had nothing to do with money because I had given him more than enough money to start something for himself. He was not unreasonably wicked either, so it had to be something else. When I read the fake contract and found how Kayden’s greatest qualities were mentioned over and over, I knew who was responsible. Simply knowing with no proof though, was not enough. I had to teach that scoundrel a lesson or he would just disappear for a while and return again to be a thorn in our flesh. Fortunately, Cassie had been easy to convince. I think it because she felt terrible after sending me to a hospital, even after I assured her continually that it wasn’t her fault. I di

    If I said I knew what I was doing, I would be lying. I was in the car with Rufus, who was taking me to only God knows where, and I had no idea where Davis was or how he was doing. After everything that had happened these past few days, I had disassociated a little from reality and this was proof of that fact. There was nothing I could do except sit and watch after all. Look where trying to act on my own had got me. “I just got off from a call with the boss,” Rufus said, swerving to the right. “He says I should take you to meet him at Palm Greens.” I turned away, distracting myself with the view of the palm trees and other cars we passed. I didn’t know where Palm Greens was. Maybe it was the place where he had captured Davis and the others. I didn’t want to think about it. I couldn’t bear to see my husband in that position again, or worse, Lisa. A feeling of dread washed over me as I began to realize just how serious this was. Kayden did not believe he had done anything wrong. I w

  • Choosing My Billionaire Husband   One Hundred and One

    I waited until Rufus was completely out of the house before speaking. I didn’t have a plan yet, but I wasn’t dumb enough to follow him to meet Kayden. Who knew what that psychopath would do with me? “Leave, now,” I told my father as I untied Gloria from the chair. My father stood still as if he hadn’t heard me. I really didn’t have the time for this. “Why are you still standing there?” I asked him. “Hurry up so you both can leave while you still can.” “It can’t be that easy, Cass,” he said. “He’ll find us soon enough or Kayden will send someone else after us.” I groaned in frustration. “So what do you expect me to do? Follow him?”“I’m not saying that, but…”“You want to die!” I screamed, running my hand through my hair, a habit I had learned from Davis. “Isn’t it better to try than to just stand around and wait to be killed? I don’t know what you expect me to do, but I’m not following anyone anywhere. We’re all escaping one way or another and it’s fine if you don’t want to follo
