ANMELDENJulian’s POV
I slammed the door closed with a loud bang and marched to my room, not caring if anyone heard me. When I got to my room, I took off my shoes and threw them against the wall with force, but as I watched them fall to the ground, I didn’t feel any form of relief, instead my anger only seemed to intensify.
I let her words cross my mind one more time, and I began to pace m
Savannah’s POVFor a moment, I couldn’t breathe.The touch was electric, a jolt of heat shooting straight to my very core as his lips moved against mine, and slowly, I felt the world melt away.His lips moved against mine, my eyes fluttering shut again against my will, my fingers instinctively gripping his jacket as his tongue swept into my mouth. I didn’t know what I was doing but a whimper escaped me as his tongue met mine and began to explore every corner of my mouth, making me weak in the knees.While still in the trance, I heard a roaring cheer from the witnesses, followed by the multiple clicking of cameras, as they all hurriedly captured the moment.When Julian finally pulled back, my mind was spinning in a chaotic fog, an
Savannah’s POVThings went extremely well, which carried over to the next day where we sat on the balcony, eating some fruit and just enjoying each other’s company.“I am just saying, Montgomery, your form with the tennis racket yesterday was absolutely tragic,” I teased, leaning back in my chair to look at him. “You looked like you were fighting for your life.”Yesterday, we had gone to play some tennis and his moves made me burst into a fit of laughter. Even now, I was still cracking up by just remembering.Julian barked out a laugh as he shook his head.“I am an analyst, Savannah, not an athlete. Besides, I would love to see you try to navigate a whole day in a dress and some heels and only then, would you be in the right place to mock me.”“Fair enough,” I said, biting back a smile.By afternoon, Martha made mention of another event we were expected to attend and the fact that our parents weren’t addressing us by themselves was annoying but we couldn’t complain.I let out a sigh,
Julian’s POVWhen I woke up the next morning, I felt better than I have ever felt for the longest time.Not long after, while I was by the balcony and composing a text to Leon about our outstanding deal, Savannah came to join me. She looked beautiful, as always, in a sundress with her hair flowing down in waves after her.“Julian,” she said as she came to stand beside me. “Martha mentioned yesterday that the estate library down the corridor holds a good collection of books, and I want to go check it out. Would you come with me?”I blinked, slightly caught off guard by the invitation, but I quickly nodded. “Sure. Lead the way, wifey.”The estate library was magnificent, with massive shelves that were as hig
Savannah’s POVI stood in front of the mirror with no regrets about the golden dress, though the reason I chose it was a different matter entirely.It was a breathtaking dress that draped elegantly over my right shoulder, while the left side remained bare. The fabric hugged my waist, before flowing down to the floor with a slit that stopped at my knee. I left my blonde hair down in full waves that fell past my shoulders, and applied pink gloss to complete the look.When I was done, the bathroom door opened and Julian stepped out, fully dressed.He had already changed into a tailored black tuxedo that fit him like a second skin, his hair styled to perfection. The moment his blue eyes locked onto my reflection, he stopped dead in his tracks. I watched his gaze roam from my exposed shoulde
Savannah’s POVI heard the word beach and was already reaching for a towel before Martha finished her sentence.Fun felt like the only reasonable defence against everything else.Julian followed without a word, which was somehow more annoying than if he had argued about it.My irritation was long forgotten the moment we arrived at the little beach, which took my breath away. The water was impossibly clear, the sand soft beneath my feet and the cliffs on either side closed the rest of the world out completely.I dropped my bag on a small lounge chair and headed to the shoreline. Julian had chosen a rock under a palm tree with a miserable look on his face. Not my problem.“Enjoy the view, city boy,” I muttered to myself, turning my back on him to enjoy every single second of it.For the next two hours, I walked along the edge of the waters that reached my ankle and even got myself dirty in the damp sand to build an oversized castle just to pass the time and as I played, I would glance ba
Savannah’s POVMorning came faster than I wanted it to. For one unguarded second I forgot where I was. Then I remembered.I spun around cautiously, but the right side of the mattress was completely empty. Judging by the rumpled linens, I could tell he had already gotten up, but there was no sign of him in the room. Seeing his absence, I loosened up and stretched my muscles.My relief was short-lived, as a sudden pressure in my bladder reminded me that I desperately needed to use the restroom. And because I hadn't wanted to leave my spot on the edge of the bed during the night, my bladder felt like it was about to burst.Still half-asleep and groggy from not getting a good night's rest, I got off the bed, put on the slippers and hurried to the bathroom. When I walked into the bathroom, I
Savannah’s POVI didn’t know how, but we got along long enough to go out without snapping at each other. That night after the party, we remained on good terms, even when we drove back to the house.
Savannah’s POVWhen the men joined us, I was forced to keep everything I wanted to say to Julian to myself, at least until after they left.“We are enjoying it immensely, Gregory,” I replied smoothly, leaning into Julian's side with a smile. “The ambiance is just lovely, and my husband has been abs
Savannah’s POVI took one last look at the mirror as I marveled at my dress. It was a black dress that was simple and yet, absolutely stunning. It was an off shoulder dress that was fitted at my waist and then flowed down to the floor
Savannah’s POVThe tension continued the next morning over breakfast. I didn’t mind because it was my main plan to piss him off, funny enough, my parents didn’t seem to notice.With a sigh, I picked up my coffee mug and took a slow, unbothered sip while holding his gaze. I arched my eyebrow in amuse
