Claimed By The Ruthless CEO Chapter 12 - Unwanted Jealousy
Edmund never liked nor sympathized with weaklings. Being resilient and unbreakable were family traits, teachings inoculated in his behavior from a young age. Therefore, it was understandable to be grueling for him to see Isabella so weak, yet there was something about her that made his protective instincts explode.Watching her laying in the bed, so innocent and vulnerable, but so exhausted, it was difficult to digest, it made him want to do the impossible to make it better for her.She was not frail when she fought against his accusations, she was not insecure either when she discarded his marriage proposal so many times. She was not actually weak, she was just a concerned sister, Luisa was the only family she had left.Well… except him. He was now her husband, her family, and he would have to explain that to her very clearly.‘She is not alone anymore, she has me. Would she faint like this if I were the one in danger, would she cry?’“If I would not know the mighty Edmund better, I

‘To tell the truth, I was baffled by Isabella’s reaction to my cousin’s presence from the very first minute. The gracious and good-natured Isabella acted like an unmannered cold woman, yet I blamed it on the stress, she has been through a lot lately.’Judging from Isabella’s earlier reaction, Edmund thought it might be more to it. He examined her face trying to understand what was going on in that pretty little head of hers.‘Was that jealousy?’Part of him wished he had teased her more, if jealousy was on the table. He was curious of the reaction she would have had if he had brought another woman there with them.“I ask you again, who did you think she was?” He confronted her, it was very important to know what she was feeling.“I--.” She sighed, gazing at him with pure and innocent eyes, breathtakingly beautiful. “I thought she was your--” She paused looking aside. “Lover.” Her voice was low.She was blushing and he was glad he was the reason for the red color on her cheeks.He inwa

Edmund’s brain malfunctioned the second his lips molded with hers, even though he had never forgotten about his plans to take revenge on her for Luisa’s actions. In spite of that, he could not remember the last time he was so weak for a woman, if ever.Her lips tasted like magic bliss, a sweet intoxicating flavor that tricked him into believing he had touched paradise. ‘I hate to admit this, but she is turning me on to the point that I could easily forget where we are. I could strip her naked and have her right here, in this car, in the parking lot.’The shyness in her gaze when he placed her body in such a compromising position undid him in every single possible way, everything completely disappeared around them, and the only one he had eyes for was Isabella.‘Her shivering body only adds to the fucking torture!’ It took all his self-composure not to act on his raw desires to take her roughly and more wildly than she could handle. ‘Fuck, she was a walking temptation from the firs

Reality hit her like thunder and lightning all together, her knees grew too weak to support her body. It was really happening, she was there, in his home, as his wife.‘This is crazy, how did this happen?’“Elaine, please take my wife, Isabella, to our room.” He gave instructions to the middle-aged woman dressed in a housekeeper uniform that welcomed them.Isabella inspected the place with her eyes frantically, her brain trying to take in as much as possible as her pulse was rushing in an unprecedented way.“I will join you after I take a call in my office.” Casually revealing to her, Edmund crashed his lips on her forehead, squeezing her shoulders.She closed her eyes and let out a moan, his small stunt forced her to press her legs together to lessen the dazzling thirst from earlier unfinished business.“At this hour?” She poured it out before realizing that she might sound somewhat impatient and probably jealous, which was entirely false, of course.‘Why would I be jealous? Yet whom
Claimed By The Ruthless CEO Chapter 16 - Her First
‘So this is how a God must look like!’The tingling sensation from her sensitive part was intensifying to the point that she could not take it anymore, her whole figure was trembling with desire, the hunger in his regard was making her weak and needy.‘I find it rather unfair for him to have this kind of power over me.’His soul sucking eyes traveled over her body and she could almost feel his blazing gaze caressing her skin.‘I can sense his hands touching me even if they are not near me, if that makes any sort of logic. I must be going crazy!’His eyes traveled slowly, increasing her cravings until they landed on the upper part of her legs. After she came out of shower while he was still in his office, she put on a night gown that was waiting for her in the closet, one that had far too little fabric for her taste, but so were the others from which she had to choose. He edged near her with fluid grace, but at the same time with the demeanor of a warrior that had never lost a battle,

Isabella woke up alone, scanning the room with her eyes for proofs that the previous night was not just a very steamy and highly gratifying dream, but there was no need to check the surroundings, parts of her body were still sensitive from the generous amount of sex they had, making her wonder if she could even walk.Her lips shaped into a silly smile, she covered her face with both her hands, embarrassment flooded her figure. For the first time in her life, she was genuinely happy, and the feeling was pretty unexpected.‘For God’s sake, how am I supposed to face him now?’ She giggled. ‘I never expected us to make love with such hunger and passion, his enticing talents made me feel as if I traveled to the moon and back.’Part of her was scared that he had second doubts. Another part was ashamed that upon meeting the deep ocean color of his eyes, her mind would recreate the blissful experience, and she would die of embarrassment. He was a great lover, she could tell.‘Practice makes i
Claimed By The Ruthless CEO Chapter 18 - Love Of His Life
They had a lovely breakfast, but Isabella could feel that something was off, even if he assured her it wasn’t.She knew that he was worried about the plane incident and his brother, and probably his business that he neglected the last few days, but somehow, she sensed that there was something more, something else that he was hiding, keeping her in the dark.‘Perhaps he regrets the night we spent together.’Her heart twisted at the mere thought, she swallowed her saliva and gazed at him as they sat in the limo on their way to hospital.Watching him so lost in his thoughts, she took the opportunity of him glancing off the window to study his virile and imposing features again. She did not know how other people saw him, but she found the man to be very appealing. She could drown in the shadowy blue pool of his eyes every day, she could play with his dark messy hair forever, or she could even melt into his vigorous arms.‘Last night, he was a freaking mouthwatering beast, my skin is burn

She might have cried an unreasonable amount of time, but as sure as hell she confronted me the way only a champion would.’In fact, she was the first and probably last person that had the audacity to do it, so his father would have approved of her, he was certain.But to return to the current situation, his eyes searched for answers only Regina could provide, his father was dead and a dead man could not spill secrets.“Please believe that I loved you.
