Amanda took a deep breath trying to calm herself down, she was trying so hard to behave like her sister but she couldn't control herself,she hadn't been with a man who evoke this weird desires in her but this had to stop.
She yanked her hand away from his."I don't know what you're talking about"He smirked."Does it make any sense that I can no longer see you as the spoilt brat that you are"Amanda scoffed getting fed up with his arrogance,she didn't care if Alisha loves him or not but right now,she had to speak up her mind."The world doesn't revolve around you, Xavier.You make me sick.You've been handed everything your whole life,been pampered and waited on hand and foot.....""Shut it!"He thundered, angrily.A discreet cough sounded nearby and they both turned around to see a uniformed man waiting."Signor and Signora Da Silva, your dinner is served.If you'd like to come through to the dining room......""You're wrong,you

CHAPTER 9The following morning at breakfast, Amanda felt gritty-eyed after a restless night.Xavier, however looked as fresh as a daisy."I thought you might like to come around the estate with me today....get a proper feel for it,we can go on horseback"Amanda's tiredness subsided instantly, and her cowardly heart starting beating fast picturing them on the horse that day but today,she wanted to have a ride separately."Okay.That sounds nice"A couple of hours later,astride a huge horse, with a wide hat on her head, following Xavier,she knew nice didn't do it justice.Amanda couldn't help a burgeoning feeling of something scarily like joy from expanding her chest as she rode slowly on her horse.Just then, Xavier stopped his horse and looked back.He sat with easy grace in his saddle,lean and awe-inspiring.Black jeans moulded to hard thighs muscles.Amanda gripped her reins hard.She'd been avoiding looking at him ever since she'd watched him swi

CHAPTER 10Xavier got into his car and shut the door."Sorry for keeping you waiting, I was on the phone with my PA, being away from work for a week is a big deal"He explained but saw her nodded weakly.He stared at her face,she looked pale and her features seem restless.Amanda held her stomach and rested her head on the dashboard."Are you okay?"Xavier asked, concerned.She sighed deeply.He placed a hand on her back and she tried not to react to his touch else it would ruin her pretense."What's wrong?""I'm on my... you know, I'm in that time of the month"She choked out.Xavier's teeth clenched.Why now?He had already pictured her on his bed tonight.But then he certainly couldn't bed a woman who was in pains."Your cramps seem really bad, I know of a hospital nearby"Abruptly, Amanda's head snapped up."I don't need to go to a hospital"She retorted.He glanced at her,she placed her hand on her stomach a

Chapter 1Xavier Da Silva looked at the girl standing across the room trying on her wedding dress.He knew she would be no different from her social peers in their privileged circles in Italy..rich and spoilt.She was paler than her contemporaries, but he guessed that came from her English father.Her mother,Isobel Christofedes Miller was Italian through and through.His brain felt slightly fuzzy around the edges and he cursed himself mentally,many a shot of whiskey wasn't going to help him out of this predicament or the feeling of entrapment he'd live with for years.Alisha Miller spun around to see her soon to be husband."I like this dress, Xavier.Does it look good on me?"He nodded nonchalantly."Can't you for once say I look beautiful or I'm pretty?""You're beautiful"He said, sarcastically."Xavier....""Don't make a big deal out of this!You should be glad that I'm here with you,wrap the dress up and meet me outside"With that,h

Chapter 2Amanda walked home from work.No matter what had happened between her and Alisha,it seem right to attend the wedding tomorrow,it was her sister's wedding....her twin sister.But then, Alisha didn't even call to invite her so there was no need of showing herself at the wedding.She saw a car in front of her apartment building,her footsteps halted on seeing Miguel getting down from the car,he opened the backseat and Isobel gracefully alighted from the car."Hello,my dear"Isobel said smiling broadly.Amanda grinned uncomfortably."May I have a word with you inside?"Throughout her stay in Canada, neither Isobel nor Alisha visited her so this visit was very creepy.Isobel stared at her apartment in total disgust,she shook her head....no one can ever be as classy as Alisha, but she had to at least try to make her fit in.Amanda walked into the living room with two mugs of coffee,she placed one in front of Isobel

Chapter 3"How can you two be so different and yet have the same face? Your boobs are smaller not to mention your butts"Isobel announced startling Amanda who just walked out from the bathroom in just her undies,she quickly reached out for her robe but unluckily for her, Isobel saw what she was trying to hide."God!How can you have a scar like this in your stomach? Which kind of woman harbours scars like this,you really can't be spotless like....""That's enough, already"Amanda snapped tying her robe."If you keep talking to me this way, I might just change my mind"She warned.Isobel swallowed."Anyway, your body doesn't matter since he won't be seeing it anyway.You have to make excuses upon excuses,no matter what,do not let him lay with you and don't ever forget that you ain't his bride""You have no need to worry, I won't have any cause to be his real wife"Isobel smirked and stood up,she walked over to the closet and opened it."These are her clo

Chapter 4Amanda stared at his house clearly amazed.The walls weren't hung with stern portraits of ancestors.Instead,there were modern works of art which she guessed weren't copies.Despite herself she asked,a little breathlessly as she tried to keep up with her long gown."Is this your family home?"Xavier waited at the top of the stairs, hands in his pockets and looking so devastatingly handsome that Amanda had to cling onto the banister.He shook his head."No.My family occupies one of our villa downtown,I bought this about eight years ago""Oh"Amanda climbed the last few steps and followed Xavier as he led her down a wide, luxuriously carpeted hallway.At the end,he indicated two doors which were facing each other.He opened the door on the left and led the way in to reveal a suite of rooms."They're two identical suites, both with bedrooms, bathrooms and dressing rooms"Amanda guessed this was his domain by its dark colours and unashamedly mascu

Chapter 5Xavier's fingers halted on his buttons.Intense irritation spiked through the burn of desire rushing through his blood.All he could see was the woman standing before him, her pale shoulders bare, gleaming in the dim light.The delicate swells of her breasts were tantalizingly visible just above the bodice of her dress.Something caught his eyes and he looked down to see her twisting her hands.He breathed deep, sensing a delay in having his needs met.His suspicion that his wife was playing the game of a tease made him grind out."Alisha, what is it?"The confidence and fiery bravado that he had become used to was gone, and suddenly,she looked very beautiful.... very untainted.Something clenched in his gut but he quashed it.She was acting..... testing her control over him.That was all.He certainly wouldn't give her any reason to think that he desperately wanted her....because desperate was a strong word to him.Amanda bit her lip,her eyes darti

CHAPTER 6Xavier grimaced."Don't worry.I'm not enough of a masochist to seclude us to a desert island just yet. I just thought you might want to see what you would have lost if you were stupid enough to try anything yesterday.The paradise resort would be a perfect place for our honeymoon. And besides, I really need to put things in order before your mother takes over"Amanda felt a little winded, and then all sorts of nebulous feelings rose up.What could she say? She would love to see the resort.But going there with him which he tagged as a 'honeymoon' was making her feel nauseous.After a few minutes, Xavier left the dining room to get his things ready.Amanda stared at his meal which he hardly touched,on a norms,she would have wanted to eat it too but the trip ahead had made her lost her appetite.She stood up and started to clear the table."You don't have to do that,ma'm"A maid said walking in.Amanda sighed and walked towards the door."Sir Xavier
