By the time we were done dancing and settled on one of the couches beside the open bar, my legs were barely supporting my body and my mind was all fuzzy. It wasn't just the impact of three solid glasses of champagne I drank, rather it was the thrill of being in sync with my husband on something. "You aren't so bad at dancing, little brat." My husband breathed near my cheek, his face all sweaty and irresistibly gentle against mine. I looked up at him through my eyelashes, my heart still thudding wildly inside my chest. "Thank you," I said, a little breathless. My fingers curled tightly in the ruffles of my white wedding dress as his eyes followed the trembling of my lips. He sighed heavily and looked away, snatched a glass of amber liquid from the server passing by and started drinking like a madman. I had the privilege of watching the veins lining his smooth neck. I wondered how it would feel if I touched them with my fingertips. I can blame it all on alcohol but I wanted to feel
I wanted to dance some more or drink the Amber liquid he was having or maybe, lash out at him for stealing my first kiss for some freaking media coverage. But I did nothing except sit down on the couch beside him. How did he trick me? I thought the kiss was real. It felt real to me. In fact, I found my husband enjoying it as much as I did, so why was he pretending it was nothing but a show? Maybe, it was a show for him. They called him the bad boy billionaire of the states for a reason. There were too many scandals in his name and I had spent a month reading about each one of them. I watched him talk over the phone and it fucking hurt to see him talk so sweetly with whoever was on the other end, tipping his head back and laughing. It wasn’t the usual sarcasm that dripped from his words every time he spoke to me or the humorless laugh he directed towards me. It was all genuine. He was genuinely happy talking to the person. I wondered if it was one of the many debutantes that he had b
I was told my husband had a very strong sexual appetite. They said it's a good thing that I didn't end up with a Billionaire who was twice my age or worse, my father's age.As I was counting all the blessings that came with our marriage, I realized they meant nothing if I'm unable to keep my husband in my bed. I was as obligated to make our marriage work as much as him.If he needed to mine his share of riches from the Rutherford family treasure, he was to remain in his father's goodwill. And if I wanted a financially secure life for myself and my ailing father, I needed to do my husband's bidding. So, if it was by spreading my legs for his taking then I would. Afterall, that's why his father had paid me and would keep paying for me if I just did my duty as Daniel Rutherford's wife.The problem was- the anticipation of what was to come from my cold husband's side as romance was kind of wrecking my nerves. I was beyond nervous and my lips were quivering by the time my husband walked in
I laid on the bed like a slab of ice, my nakedness glaring at my soul and limbs shaking with the knowledge of my helplessness. It wasn't Daniel I was afraid of, it was me. I was the one putting myself through all of that.Without saying a word my husband stretched out beside me, naked and visibly tense. Gripping my hip, he dragged my shivering body towards him and leaned over me. My cold body instantly sought the warmth of him, but I forced it not to get affected by the closeness.A hint of disappointment crossed his handsome face and I didn't like it. So, I focused on his throat as he pressed a little feathery kiss on my neck. I flinched at the sudden affection.He paused then raised his eyes at me. When I looked at him with a shocked expression he cursed and pushed up from the bed."I'm sorry," I said quickly. "I didn't... I'm a little sensitive there."He regarded me with pure cold eyes as if I had offended him. He ignored my apology and got rid of his boxer briefs, not looking at
There was no exchange of words between us as Daniel's lackey-Nathaniel helped me inside the shiny limo. My new family had already left the mansion before us.In fact, it was my husband's idea to stay back and he displayed the interest in the most cruel way possible to his father. He pulled my hand at the breakfast table, and kissed the back of it, smiling as if he hadn't disappeared the whole night after our dispassionate love making. He had only shown up to join the family for breakfast."I want to spend some private time with my wife so we are staying back." I couldn't stop myself from glaring at his smug face as he winked at me. For whatever reason he wanted to stay back, his father agreed to let him.After that show of affection at the breakfast table, Daniel didn't look at me even for once. I spent the entire afternoon in my room, staring at the ceiling and playing Candy Crush to stop my mind from going back to thinking of him, and our disastrous wedding night. I stayed in bed un
Nathaniel wasn't as unpleasant a company as my husband. In fact, I actually found myself enjoying the house tour with him.He was sort of my bodyguard. Built like a mountain, massive with an impressive height and hard muscles. I was far from short even in my heels and he easily towered me. He had to be at least ten years older than my husband but he didn't have one single gray hairline. I shrugged my comparison of him with my husband due to the fact that I couldn't stop thinking about him. Not after his possessiveness coming off so openly.Honeysuckle, the scent infused in the air, the bright greenery lined around the beautiful flower bed and a sprinkler humming in the background, gave me a place to actually look up to when I felt blue."It's through here." Nathaniel pressed a button and stood beside the front door.I gave him a nervous smile and stepped into my new house. Daniel's coat reminded me that my husband was the key to my existence in those glass walls.The interior of the h
The gala was a big affair for the Rutherford family, and standing alongside them I definitely felt like a foreigner. Not that I didn't look well polished after all that grooming session they spent lavishly, but my inexperience was surely reflecting in my eyes. And maybe the biggest reason yet was the absence of my husband beside me. Daniel didn't show up at the gala and my in-laws weren't so happy about it, especially when they had arranged me as his wife for the sole reason. I could feel my father-in-law glaring in direction every time a business associate enquired about my husband and I had no answer for them."He had a very important business matter to handle." Nathaniel had come to my rescue the third time I had been gunned with that question. "Thank you for being my savior." I whispered and my husband chose that exact moment to stagger into the banquet. No one could save me from his impact on me. In a black suit and crisp white shirt, his hair a messy arrangement, gave him a lo
It wasn't out of love or passion that I moved closer to him. I worked through my cold, shaking fingers, pulling apart the top of his dress pants. He was wearing thin boxer briefs and as I tried to slide my hand into them, a hiss came from his mouth. He clumsily pushed them down to expose the thick, heavily veined length of his shaft."Your hands are cold, just use your mouth, little brat." Without wasting another second, he cupped the back of my head and pushed it down in level with his hardness.I gulped thinking how to take all of him into my mouth. The dryness in my throat however wasn’t just for that but for doing something as dirty as thrilling for the first time. It was kind of exciting to see his cock this close, in its full glory and eagerness. Was he turned on by my sassiness? Or was it the intoxication spell?"Don't look at it as if you have seen it for the first time." His agitated voice made me blush harder than I already was.Without another word he pushed his shaft again
