Roseline's POVAs his hand reached up, his knuckles tenderly grazing my cheek, a surge of discomfort washed over me. His intense gaze fixated on my lips, leaving no room for doubt about his intentions. The air became charged with an unsettling tension as I found myself confronted with a moment that demanded quick action from my side.Going with my impulse, just as his lips were about to meet mine, I forcefully pushed him back and delivered a well-aimed kick that sent him sprawling to the floor.Laughter bubbled up within me, and no matter how hard I tried to stifle it, I couldn't control the mirth. Even the anticipation of the consequences couldn't suppress my amusement. The room echoed with my laughter, and when I finally managed to calm down a bit, I expected an outburst of anger from him. But, as I glanced down, I saw him staring at me in sheer awe, his voice held captive by astonishment.I blinked and immediately ceased laughing."You seem in a good mood today."I thought that he
Roseline's POVI was sitting beside my so-called husband while his grandfather was yet to come. He asked the housekeeper to lie and say that he was waiting for us so that we could get ready fast.The dining table was already full of different kinds of foods and I was just waiting for his grandfather to come so that we could start eating. I haven't eaten anything properly for the last two days and now that I have accepted my destiny, it is becoming difficult for me to control my hunger. I want to eat everything and right now I am starving so much that I am ready to eat anything. "Don't think that I am letting you go for what you did just now. You are going to get its punishment," he whispered in my ear. I am sure he is talking about the 'spook' that I called him before running into the bathroom. I opened my mouth to retaliate but before I could say anything, we heard footsteps that grabbed our attention. "Good morning, grandpa," Vincenzo greeted his grandfather.This man at least re
Vincenzo's POVIt's been two weeks since I have been married by law. Every morning I wake up early and find myself sleeping over her and every time I have to change our position so that she doesn't take me wrong. It has now become my habit to sleep on her and I didn't even come to know about it. Today was Sunday, and I had the luxury of working from home. My study was conveniently connected to the bedroom, allowing me to have a clear view of the outside world while remaining secluded.After a satisfying lunch, I returned to my study to continue my work. I was deeply engrossed in my tasks until she entered my field of vision.There she was, spreading out her chart on the floor, right in the line of sight from my study. I couldn't help but be distracted by the sight. Was she seriously planning to work on the floor, right in front of my eyes?But why should I care? She could do the hell she wants. Engrossed in my work, I tried to focus, but she continued to move about, seemingly unaw
Roseline's POVMy heart beat faster with every step he took toward me. The more distance was closing between us, the more anxiety was rising in my veins. It felt like a heavy weight on my chest, which made it hard for me to even breathe. Everything was fine just a few minutes ago. I couldn't understand what took over him all of a sudden. His eyes were fixated on my face as he stepped forward, while my eyes were moving all over his body, taking in every movement. The way he was walking towards me seemed like I was his prey and he is a hunter who is just looking for his chance to pounce on me. In a swift move, he picked up a chocolate from his box, which was placed on the table. But that move didn't stop him from stepping towards me, even for a second. I stopped when my back hit the wall—the damn wall! Who the hell created this wall? The room, which seemed so spacious to me earlier, now seems so small. His beastly body inched forward, blocking my vision, and I couldn't see anythi
Roseline's POVAnd in that fleeting moment, time stood still as his lips crashed into mine. My body froze, overwhelmed by the unexpected sensation. It was my first kiss, and I never imagined it would be like this.The touch of his lips against mine wasn't bad but it was unexpected and came as a surprise to me because it was from the person from whom I least expected it. I thought that he loved someone else so he was not going to get intimate with me. But the way his heart was beating beneath my palm told a different story. It seems like he wanted more than just a kiss and he isn't going to stop without claiming everything he wants. He stayed like that for a minute, as if the world stopped for him as well. He wasn't breathing; he wasn't moving, just like me; the only sound we could hear was our thumping hearts that were beating in the same rhythm. After a minute, which felt like an eternity, his face moved a little back, only for his tongue to make a space in between his lips to li
Roseline's POVHe opened the lace and now my cleavage came into his view. With a gentle tug, the fabric parted, revealing a glimpse of my cleavage. I felt a rush of warmth spread through me as his eyes remained fixed on my face, refusing to wander down to the exposed skin that was right in front of his face and was being fanned by his heightened breath. My face turned bright red, giving away the rush of emotions I was feeling. The air crackled with tension as we continued to lock eyes. My heart thumped loudly in my chest, matching the whirlwind of thoughts racing through my mind.The air buzzed with a mix of anticipation and uncertainty, creating an atmosphere charged with possibilities.He was about to take it to another level when we heard a gentle knock on the door, which stopped him.The color of his face drained as if someone had thrown a bucket of water over him and he had just been brought to his senses. Abruptly, he sat back and started looking around, his hand rubbing the b
Roseline's POVSince that day he hasn't come close to me. Most of the time he ignores me and barely talks. Whenever he is home he spend his time in his study while I stays in the room. It is not like I am complaining. It is better if he stays away from me as much as possible. Suddenly I heard the honk of his car. It was the 5th of evening and he generally returns between 8 and 9. What made him come so early today? My confusion was soon cleared when within a few minutes he entered the room and all of a sudden ordered me to get ready. "Get ready, for what?" I asked him. "We are going to a party" he told me coldly. "Party? But why?" "Don't ask me too many questions. Just do as I am saying" he said coldly. "Do you think of me as your puppet who would behave the way you want?" I asked him a little agitated by his behaviour. What does he think about himself? He can't treat me according to his mood. He sighed and turned to face me. "Dear Wifey, I have got a invitation of the party
Roseline's POVHe applied a break with my scream and the car came to a halt just a hair's distance from the tree.For a moment, I thought that we were actually going to lose our lives.Everything happened so quickly that time seemed to stand still as we sat there, stunned and unable to fully grasp the reality of what had just occurred. The weight of the situation began to sink in, and it took me a moment to collect my thoughts and understand just how narrowly we had escaped danger. My heart raced, pounding fiercely in my chest, its beats reverberating loudly in my ears, making it challenging to process the enormity of the situation.When my nerves calmed down and my breathing became normal, I stepped out of the car in anger and fear. He followed me, walked around the car and we were now standing face-to-face. I am sure he took a turn to make sure that his car hadn't gotten a scratch. He wouldn't have cared if I died."Now I understand why you take the driver everywhere. You can't even
