Alex stood at the door with a frown and stared at the woman lying carelessly on his bed
Her body was white and petite. She had a nice shape and her her hair flung loosely to her left side covering up her face
For a moment, Alex almost forgot himself and started admiring the woman on the bed. He felt temped to get close to her and explore her beauty more
Before he could realise, he had already dropped his bag and stepped closer to the bed. He sat gently on it and admired Lucy's body through the nedded night wear
He bit his lower lip slightly and ran his hand through her hair gently. It was soft, dark and lengthy. Alex didn't want to, but he still found himself leaning closer to take in the great smell of her hair
It smelt so good. And it looked shiny like she had applied some oil in it
Lucy lied on her stomach, and her lengthy hair covered her face in a messy way, but Alex didn't look like he had a problem with it
Rather, he traced his hand down Lucy's neck and caressed it slightly. The feel of his palm around Lucy's neck made her roll to her left side again, making her almost fall to the ground
Alex quickly held onto her body firmly and pulled her into the middle of the bed which made Lucy open her eyes slowly
Her hair had been flipped back giving Alex a clear view of her face
She had round phoenix eyes with dark pupils. Her brows were curved slightly, and her cheeks look just as perfect as the goddess of some Island
Alex found himself sinking deeper and deeper into Lucy's beautiful face. He couldn't stop staring at her with surprise drawn all over his face
Lucy also stared back at him. She had never seen a man as handsome as Alex ever in her lfe. And she wondered whether those people who always used to say Alex was an ugly man never saw him before
He's a fine god of martial arts. And his face looked so perfect without a single dot
How can this person be called ugly?
Lucy smiled in her heart. One of the things she had heard about her husband has been proved wrong to her just now, which means its possible he might not be as arrogant as they say also
But looked like Lucy's fate wasn't so good, just as she was busy admiring her husband, Alex frowned deeply at her and asked coldly "what are you doing here?"
Alex's question made Lucy confused. She's his new wedded wife right? So then where else was he expecting her to be if not in their room?
After hearing no response from Lucy, Alex grabbed her chin fiercely and asked angrily this time "who are you?"
"I'm Lucy, your wife" Lucy replied in a quavering tone
"what?" Alex let go of Lucy and asked with surprise
He was supposed to get married to Lora, who is the eldest daughter of the White family and not this woman he has no idea of
Alex used to attend the same college with Lora few years ago. And he saw all the nasty things she did while they were there, so he has always hated her so much to the core
There's no way he would have agreed to get married to her if it wasnt for revenge
His uncle insisted, so he had no other option but to go on with it
Hating Lora so much, he decided not to show up at the wedding. The sight of her alone always made him feel like throwing up. So he instructed Aaron to give her a separate room after the wedding
When he first saw Lucy, he thought it was Lora and immediately became angry. But upon getting closer to her, he realised it was a different person. And he thought it was his girlfriend
But hell no, its Lucy. And she's claiming to be his wife?
"Where's Lora?"Alex asked in a calm tone this time
"...." Lucy bit her lower lip slightly not knowing what to say. She agrees with with Alex's question, but how does she answer it
Lora was supposed to be the one here on this bed and not her, but....
"Whatever. The bed belongs to me, so you can use the sofa. Or...maybe sleep on the floor" Alex got off the bed and took off his suit and pant. After that he grabbed a towel from the closet and stepped into the bathroom for a shower
Lucy thought seriously about what Alex just said over and over again without getting the understanding
Sleep in the sofa? Or on the floor?
She's his wife, and they're supposed to share the same bed. Why would he ask her to sleep in the sofa or on the floor?
Lucy sat on the bed adamantly for explanation
She felt maybe she didn't get what Alex said well
After waiting for about ten munites, the sound of water hitting the floor still continued. Which meant Alex still wasn't done showering
Lucy rolled out of the bed and grabbed one of her old night wears to put on. Earlier she thought Alex wouldn't come, but now he's here. And she can't continue wearing this exposing dress
But just as she was done taking off the one she was wearing, the bathroom door swung open and Alex came out
Lucy quickly covered the front part of her body with the night wear. She hadn't expect to see Alex back now, and the sight of him made her heart race with uneasiness
Alex almost laughed at Lucy's silly posture but forced it back with all his might
He couldn't deny the fact that Lucy looked very beautiful. And the sight of her without any clothe looked so tempting
Alex bit his lower lip very hard. Trying as hard as possible not to get any erection or sexual desires. But who was he kidding?
Before he could control himself, he was already standing in front of Lucy
Lucy's heart rate multiplied unmeasurably. She looked up at Alex's wet hair, down to his good looking face and all the way to his abs
He had six packs, and his body was well and muscularly built
Getting lost in the beauty of each other, Alex slowly grabbed Lucy's waist and pulled her up against his muscular chest
Staring down at her face, he pressed his lips against hers in a second. Making Lucy's body become stiff that instant
The next day... Lucy opened her eyes lazily and observed the room keenly She sat up upon seeing no sign of Alex in the room and massaged her neck with a squeezed face. Her body ached badly from sleeping in the couch last night. And she couldn't feel her body properly Last night everything was going on very smoothly. But within few minutes of kissing and touching, Alex suddenly became upset and threw her out of the bed Lucy thought seriously about what could be Alex's problem, but nothing came in mind May he wanted to marry Lora and not her. So automatically he doesn't like her. But that's okay with her, because she believes it will take a while for them to know each other well. And when this finally happens, Alex might start liking her All she needs to do is to be an obedient and submissive wife to him. They're married now, and she needs to protect this relationship for her own safety in the future If ever Alex becomes upset and send her out of his life, then she'll end up craw
Whites Mansion"I have some news for you Lora." Samuel White, Lora's father cleared his throat slightly and said as they had breakfast"What news?" Lora asked blankly"The Brown family has offered to take you in as their daughter in law. They wish to get this done by the end of the week" Samuel replied calmlyLora's eyes opened with shock upon hearing what her father just said. She glanced worriedly at her mother gesturing her to say something but she remained quite"Who am I getting married to? Collins or Jeffery?" Lora asked tremblingly. She just prayed her father wasn't going to mention Collin's name. But looked like her fate wasn't so goodSamuel raised up his eye to stare at her and sighed out helplessly "Collins. He's the one you're getting married to""Huh?... But dad you know very well Collins used to be Lucy's boyfriend. How can I marry Lucy's ex?" Lora roared angrilyLucy and Collins planned on getting married after Lucy completed college. But they forced her into the Green
Alex dragged Lucy all the way down to the basement and threw her onto the floor roughly. He held onto his waist anxiously and stared at her like his last meal. The kind of anger radiating from his breaths alone made Lucy shaudder with fear. She wantwed to say something, or to at least apologise for what she did, but she didn't know how to start She just helped herself off the ground and looked up at A lex with apologetic eyes "I'm very sorry... I.." "Who the hell do you think you are? And... how did you even get here?" Alex grabbed Lucy's chin fiercely and asked. He looked like he was about swallowing her in the next second if something doesnt happen Tears rolled up in Lucy's eyes, and it didnt take up to the next second before it started pouring down her cheeks uncontrollably. Alex's voice sounded very cold and domineering. And she feared to make him more upset if she mistakinly says something terrible She wanted to tell him she came with Aaron, but she was afraid of the outcome.
(Music....)Lucy positioned herself well as the music began and swayed her body to the rhythm of the song. It was a rumba dance, which is often known as the dance of loveShe danced very slowly, but in a very sensual manner. She seemed to be trying to seduce Alex or somethingThe dance was in deed very flirtatious, and within the next few minutes, Alex found himself stepping closer to her. He took off his suit and sat on the bed as he stared at Lucy with lustful yet curious eyesHe seemed to be shocked by Lucy's act, and frowned on few occasionsLucy took this opportunity to sit on Alex's lap hesitantly. She was afraid of getting him more upset but Alex seemed to be okay with it. He didn't hold her, but he didn't stop her eitherHe just sat with his eyes fixed on her. Enjoying each and every single move she madeLucy felt happy in her heart that her plan was working smoothly. She had thought of so many things, but only this dance popped up in her mindShe's been joining dancing class
"Ding....dong..." Lora pressed on the doorbell a few times and waited patiently. After a short while, the door swung open and a young slender girl showed up "Hi ma'am, please how may I help you?""I'm here to see Collins." Lora replied in a light tone"Please come in" the young girl nodded her head slightly and opened the door. Lora walked in gently and sat in the sofa. She admired the living room as the girl went upstairs to call CollinsHer mom was right. The Brown family is just as rich as the Green family. They have this huge mansion, and the living room said everything. Maybe her mom wasn't so wrong. This family is filthy rich, and that's all she wantsBut the fact that Collins is Lucy's ex-boyfriend is her biggest problem. Even though she doesn't love him, she could have still managed with that because of the money. But...Lora blew out a sigh helplessly at the thought of this and shook her head slightly. She has come to make a deal with Collins if only he'll accept it. But upo
"I know Alex very well Lucy. His mother used to be my good friend. When the tragic incident occurred, I left this city and came back only few years later. I'm just so surprised he's the one you got married to" Mrs. Hayes' words resounded clearly in Lucy's mind as she stood by the roadside for a cabHer words got her thinking. Because it didn't sound so clear to her. Her reaction tells something more than what she told her. She couldn’t have possibly acted that way simply because Alex is her good friend's son, right?She looked very nervous, like as if a serious tragedy was about to befall herSomething about Mrs. Hayes reaction to Alex's name looked suspicious. And the fact that she refused to explain any further made Lucy feel a bit anxious. But she just helped the woman back to her room and left without bothering her with so much questions. Maybe she’ll find time to talk about that with her againLucy got a cab and headed back home after sometime. On the way, her phone started ringi
Lucy alighted in front of a restaurant and looked around for Mia. It was De Shallot eatery, a place they often used to have lunch four years agoThe place looked a bit different to her, because for all these past four years she has never stepped a foot thereMia said she would be waiting for her in front of the restaurant, but she was nowhere to be found. Lucy took her phone to dialed her number again. But just as it started ringing, someone hugged her from behindTurning to face the person Lucy saw it was Mia and quickly jumped into her embrace. They hugged each other tightly for a while without saying anything. They had missed each other so much, and it felt like they weren’t still getting enough of each other even after hugging for over five minutes"I really miss you a lot Lucy. I miss you so much!" Mia exclaimed happily after pulling out of Lucy's embrace"I miss you too. Let's go and have some spicy chicken" Lucy smiled and went into the restaurant with Mia. They ordered for som
Alex parked the car quickly and run towards where Lucy was lying without wasting another second. He saw Lucy's helpless state, and felt like a part of his heart had been pierced with a sharp daggerAlex didn’t know why he got that feeling. He just couldn’t control it and felt like it was taking the whole of himHe knelt down beside her in the rain, and lifted her up without any effort. The guards wanted to tell him they had been ordered not to allow her get into the house, but they couldn’t dareAlex had the most dangerous look ever on his face. He looked like he could tear people into pieces within the minimum seconds and this made the guards shudder with so much fearWithout wasting another second, Alex quickly moved to the door and tried to push it open but it didn’t. After ringing the doorbell a few times, Vanessa finally showed up"What...." Vanessa's words froze in the air after spotting the person at the door. She thought it was Lucy, but it turned out to be her brother instead
