The night breeze was very chilly but I felt very warm under his deep and affectionate gaze. He had these beautiful orbs that made me get really lost in them just by staring at them momentarily.

I felt an unprecedented sense of safety being wrapped under his protective arms. His arrival quickly dispelled my initial fear and anxiety I initially had.

"Are you alright? Did he do anything to you?" He asked as his eyes traveled around my body in concern, probably looking for any injury.

I stared at him silently as I tried to composed myself. The incident earlier had left me in a state of shock but merely gazing at the soft expression on his face was enough to dissipate it.

"I'm fine." I answered as I nodded fervently with a small smile. I was so glad he was here in time. One minute late and I would have been doomed.

We heard a low groan and turned only to see that Larry had already woken up. He held his head and struggled to stand up. He couldn't get a grip of himself so he fell again.

With the help of a nearby tree, he was able to stagger back to his feet. His legs seemed wobbly possibly because he was drunk. We watched him quietly all through.

"What happened??" He asked no one in particular as he touched his head in pain. It seemed like he suddenly recalled what had happened as his expression morphed into an angry one.

He was about to lounge towards us when he saw Nicholas. I noticed how his eyes widened in shock and fear.

"I'm so sorry. I never knew she is your woman." He apologized repeatedly and scurried off like a dog who had its tail in between its legs.

After Larry had disappeared out of our sight, Nicholas turned back to face me. He placed his warm palms lightly on both my cheeks.

"You're drunk." He muttered like he was just noticing it.

"Uhm.. just a little." I lied and smiled widely. I probably look like an idiot right now. He took off his suit jacket and wrapped it over me when he noticed that I was shivering

"You shouldn't be out late at this time. Do you need a ride back home?" His question reminded me of what, rather who was waiting for me back at the mansion.

There's no one else but me and Andrew and I can't be with him, not like this. I wouldn't be able to protect myself from him as I am so out of it right now and I don't even know what he might do to me.

"No.. I don't want to go back home." I muttered as I shook my head vehemently.

"Okay.." He nodded in understanding and led me to his car.

He placed me on the passenger's seat and strapped the seat belt protectively around me. After that, he walked over to the driver's seat, started the car and zoomed off into the night.

We got to another hotel and he parked the car. He led me out and we entered the building. Thankfully, there was no body around at this time so I wasn't scared to be in such a place with him.

We entered the elevator and he pressed the bottom leading to the penthouse. We got there in no time and he opened the door with his key car. I plopped down tiredly on the chair and took off the jacket.

I was really drunk that my eyes slowly started to fail me. I felt the couch being pressed down beside me.

"Do you want to take a bath?" I heard Nicholas ask gently and I nodded. At least a bath could wash away the heavy scent of alcohol in my body and my drowsiness.

He left the living room and came back some minutes later. "Your bathe is ready." He announced.

I tried to stand up but my legs failed me. When he noticed what was happening, he walked towards me and helped take off my heels. He wrapped his hands around me and lifted me up in bridal style before taking me into what seemed like the bathroom.

He placed me gently on a stool and showed me all of the things I would need before he left. I slowly took off my clothes and underwear before staggering into the tub.

A small splash sound could be heard when I entered the tub. I sighed as the warm water touch my bare skin. Nicholas had set the heat of the water to a bearable one.

I picked uo a body scrub and dipped it into the water before using it on my body. Slowly, I started to feel clean.

After Nicholas had left Catherine to clean up herself, he couldn't hare the intense heat he was feeling within himself so he had to head out to the balcony.

He sighed as the cold breeze hit his body, slowly dissipating the fire within him. He had almost lost control. Seeing her in such a fragile state almost brought out the beast in him.

She had always managed to make him feel this way without even knowing or trying. Even though he wanted her, he didn't want to take her this way. She isn't in her right state of mind.

He's scared she might regret it the next day and it might ruin the relationship he had managed to build with her. He wanted to take it really slow but his body wanted something else.

Everytime he closed his eyes, images of her in her druken state would pop up amd that only made him hotter mad harder. Not long after, he heard her leave the bathroom and that only made things worse.

Blurry images of her naked body popped up in his head, making his dick grow even harder. He cursed himself for being such a beast and tried to stop the images when he heard her soft voice from behind.

"Nicholas.." He heard her call.

Thinking that she might need something, he went back into the living room but couldn't find her. He was about to go into the bathroom when he felt a warm body press against his from behind.

His breath hitched when he felt her soft breasts press against his hard back. It got even worse when her warm breath fanned his neck. He could feel the fire in his body growing hotter.

He knew he couldn't control himself so he tried to pull away but she wouldn't let him go.

"Please don't push me away." She pleaded softly and he stopped immediately.

"I won't.. ever." He muttered.

"I know. You're always there for me whenever I need you. You understand me best when no one else can. I just hope you would keep staying by my side for a very long time." Nicholas wanted to talk but she interrupted him.

"I can never survive all these without you. You're my strength..." She paused for a while..

"... and weakness." She added.

Hearing that, Nicholas felt a surge of uncontrollable emotions rise within him. He turned around and held her gently around her shoulders, staring deeply into her eyes.

"Catherine, I..." She placed her index finger on his lips, preventing him from speaking further.

"I love you Nicholas." She confessed before pressing her lips against his.

  • Revenge On My Ex Husband    She took my fate

    **That same day**While I was on a date with Nicholas, I heard my phone ringing. Since it was on the table, Nicholas could easily see who was calling. I noticed how a deep frown appeared on his face when he glanced at my phone."You still haven't deleted this number?" He asked, making me wonder who was calling. I picked up my phone, only to see Andrew's name flashing on the screen.I thought I had blocked him as he stopped calling me since Nicholas dealt with him at the mall that day. I didn't want to answer the call as it didn't seem important to me so I muted it and turned it over."Why didn't you answer the call?" Nicholas asked."I didn't want to ruin the moment." I answered and gave him a small smile. He smiled back and we continued eating.Few seconds later, I could still feel my phone vibrating on the table. It got to the extent that Nicholas angrily picked the call. I knew hell was about to break loose but surprisingly, he held a calm gaze and listened to what Andrew had to sa

  • Revenge On My Ex Husband    The divorce settlement

    Even though what Rachel did today was wrong, I couldn't let her die after knowing what was about to happen since she is Nicholas' cousin; so I decided to take action."Where's your phone?" I asked Nicholas, urgency laced in my tone. When he saw how serious I was, he didn't ask any question as to why I was asking and gave it to me immediately.His phone didn't have any lock so it was really easy to get access to it. "Where's Rachel's number?" I asked as I scrolled through his contacts."The number before yours in my call history." He answered. I clicked on the call history and saw an unsaved number underneath mine. Thinking it would be hers, I dialed it. After ringing twice, she picked the call."You've got a lot of nerve to call me again." Her annoying voice resounded from the other end."It's me, Nicholas' wife." I ammouced. Even though I wasn't with her, I could picture the deep scowl on her face."Why are you calling me? To humiliate me the more or to apologize?" She asked, anger
