The moment I felt his hand on my back, my attempt to complain didn't happen. I swallow my words just like how I swallow the curses I wanted to spit out in front of him. My heart is beating so fast and I couldn't figure out if it is because of anger, nervousness, or the foreign feeling that I couldn't name. My lips form into a thin line, my chin resting on his shoulder. Unconsciously, I grasp the fabric of his clothes tightly while staring at nowhere. I could feel the heat of his body and the bulging muscles of his arms. His breath fanning on the exposed skin of my neck tickles me a little. On the back of my head, I wanted to push him followed by a small voice screaming 'danger' but then I can't seem to move my hands in the way that I should. His effect on me takes control of my senses. My body act on its own and I can't seem to protest. Perhaps, this was the first time I felt someone else's warmth. I didn't know that it feels overwhelming and calming. This is my first time getting
"You don't have to be nervous, Little. You have me, I am your husband" What does it mean? Why does it sound like assurance in my ears? I look into his eyes for a couple of seconds, and slowly, a genuine smile forms on my lips for the first time since we met. I didn't know that I am able to feel at ease with this man for even just a second.He pulled away and my lips move when I realize that he already unfasten my seatbelt. His eyes linger on my face for a while and I saw how the corner of his lips move before pushing the door open. I saw Nicolai approach him and glance in my direction. His formal yet friendly smile greeted me and I nod in response. I step out of the car and took a deep breath. My lips form into a thin line when I glance at the huge fancy mansion in front of me. The exterior design was inspired by Greek architecture that almost looks like the Costello Mansion. I was not surprised when I notice those numbers of men in black standing like a statue in each corner becau
"It was a wife's responsibility to give her husband a child" he stated. "It's part of your responsibility, darling. Have you forgotten condition # 2?"A hint of mischief crossed his eyes while staring at my stunned reaction. A bomb seems like explode inside my head and it was Sain Ildefonso who throw that bomb. He's quiet but his full attention is focused on me as if he was fascinated by something- it's either my face or something that I am not aware and he's the only one who knows. "You're serious?" My voice shook and I saw how he haft-bit his lower lip and sexily released it slowly."Do I look like I'm joking, woman?" He fireback, flashing a grin on his somewhat serious-looking face.I expelled a breath and shake my head."You fooled me!" I blurt out. "You created that contract because of a malicious intention" I accused him.How could he? How come I get fooled by his misleading contract? Does Nicolai know about it? Is that the reason why he was eager for me to sign the contract?
I smile at the lady helper after she finished setting the table. I am left alone in this huge dining room because Sain suddenly received a call which I think is important because of the sudden changes in his expression. The food looks appetizing but I couldn't seem to find myself eating. I don't know, perhaps I was being cautious because I am suspecting Sain, my suspicion is giving me hard time to relax and calm down. What if he knows something? What if I was the one who fall into his trap and not the other way around? I press my lips together and fisted my hand that is resting on my lap. Minutes has been pass but he's still not around so I stand on my sit and follow the direction where he takes the call. Just like what I thought, there I saw him standing back facing me."Sain?"He froze and then later on turned around to face me. My gaze landed on the phone he was holding that he immediately put inside the pocket of his jeans before the playful smirk spread across his lips."Did yo
"Now that we're done discussing the house rules. Why don't you give me my daily dose of vitamins as part of my dessert?" I fell into silence with his words. Why do I always forget that I must give him three kisses every day? I stare at him for a short moment and my eyes accidentally landed on his lips that forming a grin. My pulse quicken so I withdraw my eyes and meet his gaze. I sigh and force myself to get on my feet. I went to him that formed a gorgeous smile on his face. Without saying anything, I tiptoe and reach to reach his lips. I didn't struggle like the first time because it was like an instinctive response from him to bend down and meet my lips haft way. Our lips once again collide which creates an electric shock wave to my nerves. A shiver run down my spine so I automatically retreated back to give the distance between us. My heart is pounding so fast, couldn't hide the temptation that trying to drown me. Huh, I didn't know a kiss could be tempting. "Shit, what did I
Third Person's Point of View Time passed and before Herravie knew it, she already doze off to sleep. The determination to wait for Sain was overpowered by her heavy lids. Darkness swallowed her senses and all she could feel is peacefulness while laying comfortably on the king-size bed as if she really owns everything and she has nothing to be cautious about. The promise made by Sain did really happen but she wasn't aware. The man indeed arrived before the day ends, it was already late, only an hour before midnight. It took him a lot of effort so that he will arrive before the clock strike to twelve. Walking into the capacious living room, Sain roamed his eyes around. The house is bright with lights a silent indication that she's been waiting for him. But, is she really is? "She's in your room but I am not sure if she's already sleeping" Pierro breaks the silence as if he already know what will be the first question he needs to answer, disrupting Sain's thoughts. He approaches S
A warm feeling from the sun rays that touching my face wakes me up from my deep sleep. I mumble softly and open my eyes but the first thing that greeted me was a man's face.I shut my eyes close tightly thinking that I am still dreaming but the moment I open my eyes again, realization hits me. My eyes widened in shock and it was my instinctive reaction to move away. Sain! I am sleeping on the same bed with Sain Czar Ildefonso! How could I let it happen? How could I fall asleep so peacefully while my enemy is beside me? My lips parted and look at Sain's glorious face with a hint of disbelief. He's sleeping face makes him look like an innocent child who doesn't know any thing in this world. I press my lips together. But I know better, the face of this man can fool anyone but not me. I know that he is as tempting as sin, that is something that I couldn't deny. But at the same time, I know he is dangerous. He is someone that I should never trust.I lost with my own thoughts and I was ju
The moment I and Sain went in to the great room, the first thing I saw is her. That woman, Laurent Alcatraz who's shamelessly looking at my husband with a desire that she can't deny. I look at Sain Czar expecting the same expression on his well sculpted facial feature but then I saw the opposite. The playful smile that seems like imprinted in his lips since he wakes up was disappear and replaced by his void expression. There is a sudden cold air that filled the whole room and somehow that makes me shiver.What's happening? Why did he suddenly turn murderous?I unconsciously step back. My hands went cold and I could feel the fast beating of my heart. I am freaking nervous while looking at Sain Czar Ildefonso who seems displeased to see Laurent Alcatraz. But there is something off with his reaction. He looks like he can kill someone any minute by now. Is this what Mrs. Castania wants me to be careful about? This side of him who who can make your legs tremble just by his fierce glare th
