CHAPTER 2
JENNA’S POV I laid on my sofa thinking, as the sound of the doorbell jolted me up. The door pushed open and I already knew who that was. “Jenna! Gosh. What's going on with you?” She stared at me confused. A look of concern furrowed her brows. “I mean, one minute I'm seeing over the news you're getting married and next thing the supposed bride to be comes asking on how to get a boyfriend before tomorrow?” “Cassy, you're not going to understand.” “Have…you been drinking?” She walked up close to me attempting to touch my forehead. “Girl no!” I shot at her, slapping her hand away as I spoke. “Grandpa set me up again and now I've got no choice than to play this game with him.” I continued. “I told him about my boyfriend and us keeping what we have low key in an attempt to not get married to whoever he has in mind.” “But, you don't have a boyfriend.” She said. I rolled my eyes, “thanks for the kind reminder, Cassy “ I said sarcastically. “So…..what do we do about this, your phantom guy huh?” I lifted my gaze to see big wide eyes glaring at me. I jumped back. “Jesus Christ! Cassy, you scared me,” my hands still placed on my chest as I adjusted myself back on the sofa.” The way cassy burst outlaughing like a hyena seemed to lift up the tension I was feeling. She made sure to cheer me out of any bad situation and I loved her for that. “Tell you what, you just need to find someone good enough to play the part. I mean, men these days don't really care about love. Just wave some money in their face and boom! Your phantom man comes to reality.” She said. “Nice idea, Cass, but where do we find those kinds of men?” A wide grin carved up in her face. “We go to the club.” “Huh?” My brows knitted in confusion. “Yes, the club.” She inched close, dragging me by my arm as we walked to my room. “Think about it, you get to pick from all the men who're going to be fawning over you tonight.” “Trust me if I were a guy, I'd even bark at your command,” we both burst out laughing while I began to ravage my wardrobe. ******** Loud music pulsed through the club as we walked in. Hundreds of bodies swaying with the rhythm like they were dancing away their problems. Boy! I don't think I have ever been to a club this full before. I took in a deep breathe. My eyes caught sight of a figure across the crowded dance floor and I could tell he was staring when he shot a wink at me. I could feel myself blushing as I shifted my gaze to the bar and I knew just what I needed to do to escape this packed can of sardines, but with humans instead. “One shot of tequila thank you,” I said to the barman while my eyes scanned for Cassy. Well, I wouldn't be surprised if she hooked up with someone already. Seconds turned to minutes and minutes to hours, still with no sign of Cassy. “Another shot of tequila!” “Ma'am this would be your 10th glass for the evening, sure you’d like more? “Well I don't think it's in your power to question the lady since she can foot her bills.” A husky voice emanated from behind me. It was him. The man who was gazing at me when I stepped into the club. He moved the stool closer to me as he sat. My nostrils caught hold of his spicy yet masculine cologne. “Two shots please,” he ordered. I couldn't stop myself from staring at him. His eyes!! Arghh! The prettiest set of almond eyes I've ever seen. His small pointed nose was brown with freckles and his well defined cheekbones sat above a square concrete jaw. “I assume you're here alone?” His gaze fixed on me as I sought another shot of tequila. “Uhh-no. I'm with someone, but she should be around the corner having a threesome or whatever.” I rolled my eyes. He chuckled. “I think sitting here all alone is quite boring. Mind we go for a little dance?” You don't get to dance with a man this hot everyday and the plus mission of getting a boyfriend before tomorrow already seems like a failure. I thought to myself. Our bodies brushed against each other as his hands moved along my waist to the rhythm. He inched me closer, as I felt the sound of the music slowly fading away. I was losing it. I wanted him. His fingers traced the curve of my hip, his breath hot against my ear as he whispered “You're so beautiful” Shivers ran through my spine as his fingers traced further up cupping a feel of my breast. “Want to get out of here? He whispered again into my ear. I have a nod of agreement. We slipped out of the building and found our way to his car. The journey to wherever we were going couldn't become any shorter. The lust between us grew as each second passed. The car came to a halt in front of a tall building and I'm guessing his apartment is one amongst the hundreds of windows shining brightly against the night sky. We got into the elevator. His pinned me to the wall as his lips met mine in a hungry kiss. He explored my body, finding the sensitive spot between my legs. Moving his hands in a thrust motion, I convulsed at his touch. My moans grow louder with every action. The elevator chimed and he lifted me up. Carrying me to his bedroom. He didn’t need locks cause I saw something like a face scanner or I don’t know whatever I saw. I yearned for something else The carpet was silent against the sound of his footsteps He laid me on the bed stripping me bare. Hot kisses fell on my breast while his hands were groping the other. He stopped and fixed his gaze on me. “Do you want this?” His eyes said something different. He was hungry, hungry for sex. “Yes, yes,” I cried. He turned me onto my back, positioning my body to arch. He lowered himself into me thrusting slowly, letting me adjust to his size. His pace quickened and my moans filled the air of the room. “Fuck! You're so wet,” he growled, thrusting even faster this time. He pulled out, tiring my body to face him. “I…love…how…you…feel,” he said, placing a kiss on my neck all the way to my lips. “Come for me, sexy girl.” My hands grabbed unto the sheets. My body quivered from how he stroked me. His teeth are nipping at my nipples. “Oh fuck,” I cried. My voice hoarse with pleasure. Our moans grew louder as he we both reached our point of climax. Quickening his pace he pulled out, emptying himself all over my belly. As we laid still on his bed, our hearts pounded in unison, we were soaked with sweat. As I was drifting off to sleep due to exhaustion a warm kiss fell on my neck.CHAPTER 7 JENNA’S POV After the little heart to heart conversation with Cassie, I got a call from Rob. I know right. Talk about the devil. “She’s going to be with you in a minute” I heard the house servant say before I could descend completely from the stairs. He looked breathtaking from the angle I stood at. From the side he looked composed. His lips pressed in as he glanced at his watch. His gaze lifted from his watch and then rested on me. A small blush crept on my face. “You look beautiful today, just as always.” His voice was low and firm as I took careful strides towards him. He stood up, placing a peck on my cheek. “C’mon I’ve got a surprise for you.” What could this man suddenly be planning? “If this is another gift, I’m not taking it” I said jokingly. “Don’t worry, this is one you can’t reject.” He winked at me before leading the way to the door. The car was already outside waiting for us, except there was something odd. There wasn’t a driver.
CHAPTER 6 JENNA’S POV I stayed curled up on the sofa, staring blankly at the heart shaped pendant I got from Rob. Apparently he’d sent it to the house hours before I woke up with a note that read ‘a piece of my heart to you’. The room was quiet except for the ticking sounds from the clock that hung up above me. Cassie sat on the sofa too, staring awkwardly in silence. “You can’t just lay there all day and sob or whatever it is you think you’re doing.” She mentioned, casually. “I don’t know, Cassie,” I said finally. “Am I really getting married?” Cassie shot a glance at me. “Uh, except I’m stuck in a dream with you, of course you’re getting married.” The thought of getting married really made me scared, but then again this stranger kind of had me rethinking my choices. It has been a few weeks now and it’s just been showers of love and attention from Rob, which sort of made me overwhelmed with emotions. “What if this is all roses underneath a pile of thorn
CHAPTER 5 ROB’S POV I sat in my office deep in thoughts as I continued to twirl on my chair. Was I really getting married to O’Neils daughter? I kept questioning myself. I didn’t feel as perturbed as I was supposed to be cause I had felt it happening, but not this soon. Every spin I took on that seat kept ringing the words ‘married’ ‘soon’ which I still couldn’t wrap my head around cause how could a quiet dinner go from that to coming back home with an actual fiancé in a blink of eye. The spin came to halt. I leaned forward resting my hands further into the desk. “O’Neil’s such a fucker” I cursed under my breathe. The door creaked open and I didn’t bother to look up as I continued to stare into nothing in particular. “Wedding fever ayy?” O’Neil’s sharp voice cut through the air. What the actual fuck. What the fuck is he even doing in here. “You really outdid yourself you know, sweeping Jenna off her feet like that” he continued. “If anything I’m reall
CHAPTER 4 JENNA’S POV Grandpa blew off a cynical laugh as he said, “ so you were real?” His eyes trailed to Rob’s bandaged hand. “You into sports?” He questioned, still eying his hand suspiciously. I felt my heart drop into my stomach. I turned to look at Rob, he gave a slight smirk as his eyes met mine. Please don’t say I did that, oh God please. “Oh no, my hand got caught in the door back at work, So yeah this” he waved his arm. “Of course I am real, my cute little Jennie here really did a good one in keeping us a secret,” he grabbed onto my hand as he gave a light hearted laughter. Little Jennie? No one’s fucking called me that since high school. “Oh well, you missed starters, but you came just in time for the main course mr-?” “Rob, Dimitri Rob” his voice resonated. Everyone got settled in. It felt so real, the dinner, Rob by my side, I never believed I could pull this off. “So how did you two meet?” Grandpa started. “Can’t we have a quiet dinn
CHAPTER 3 JENNA’S POV Rays of sunlight hit my face as I struggled to hide underneath the duvet. “Can’t I sleep a little longer?” I murmured, at this point I just wanted to go back to sleep as head throbbed harder even in my pre conscious state. I murmured “ I'm not ready to wake up yet, cover the damn blinds” I felt so wasted. A brutal reminder of the amount of tequila shots I took. Groaning, I rolled over in an attempt to dodge the rays of light. My hands brushed against something. “Move cassy.” I tried to pry my eyes open, I regretted it instantly. I should have just stuck with the regular two glasses of martini I usually take. Wait, I never let Cassy sleep on my bed. She's got this habit of spreading her body everywhere. If this isn't Cassy, then who is? My once heavy eyelids opened wide in horror as I jerked up from the bed. I scanned the room, this looked nothing like my room. Panic clawed the wayy up my throat. Where the hell was I? It was him. My
