Masuk*WARNING* *THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT* *PROCEED WITH CAUTION* “Don’t… Don’t come any closer” I whispered, but I knew he heard me. “Why, My Little Vixen?” He asked in that husky tone that almost made me go weak in the knees. “Because I don’t want you,” I lied and tried to sound adamant, pretending like his touch didn’t make me weak. “I don’t think so,” He snickered and started to walk towards me like I was his prey, and he was my predator. Involuntarily, I began to move backward while he closed up on me. “I mean it, Adrian. Do not come any closer,” I warned in a slightly shaky voice, but he approached me and caged me to the wall. “Then prove it, my Little Vixen. Prove that you don't want me,” He whispered to my ears as his fingers ran through my hair, and I shivered at his touch. ***** A deal. It was meant to be just a deal between Adrian and Isabelle, but this deal ignited old flames. Old flames that they both assumed were all in the past. Then all hell was let loose when the person Isabella had known to be her brother all her life came back from the dead, claiming that they were betrothed since birth. What would happen next?
Lihat lebih banyak~ADRIAN~I hated that she still looked beautiful as ever. I hated that I was stuck with her for the rest of my life.Living with her was going to keep reminding me of how she betrayed and used me, then dumped me like I was nothing.I didn't even blame my body for breaking down. I overworked myself.And even as I lay down feeling weak, the thought of how to deal with Sebastian’s Dad wouldn't leave my mind.I felt someone cleaning me up to reduce my temperature but my eyelids seemed too heavy to open up.Was it Isabella?I dismissed the thought immediately because there was no way Isabella would do that.She seemed to hate me more now, than when she told me she had been playing me. When I felt much better and my eyelids weren't heavy for me to open, my eyes fluttered open and I saw Carlos stride in.Yeah right, Carlos must have been the one taking care of me.“Dude, don't be a pussy. A real man doesn't get sick,” Carlos teased, making me roll my eyes.“Says the person who has everythi
~ISABELLA~“Don’t worry yourself, Bel,” Susanna said when she called back. “The doctor says it's just a little fever. Take care of him. He’ll get better soon.”I didn't like the sound of what she said. I frowned at the thought of openly caring for Adrian even when he was awake.Adrian wouldn't like it either because we could barely stand each other as it is.“That's going to be very difficult,” I told her, and then explained everything Adrian told me after we got here.She laughed as though it was a joking matter and this made me frown in displeasure.“Just play by his rules for now till he calls down. I know my Adrian. He can't hate you forever. Actually, you aren't supposed to let everyone know that you are Adrian’s wife the moment you start working at the company,” She told me.“Why?” I asked her, trying to get a better understanding of what point she was driving at.“Because then it’d be like you aren’t worthy of your position. That’s why you must use your maiden name when you sta
~ISABELLA~“Just act as though I'm not in this house. Don’t talk to me, don’t look at me, and don’t even come near my room. And at work, while you are being trained, act like you don't know me. No one should know you are my wife,” He said coldly.I never expected that he would say I should act like I didn't know him at work too.“Wasn't getting married to me because you wanted to solidify your claim to your foster family’s company?” I cocked a brow at him.“Don’t do that,” He glared at me.“Do what?” I asked, utterly confused as to what he was on about.“Don’t act like we are just having a casual conversation. I'm damn serious about everything I’ve said,” He spat coldly.I looked away because I was afraid that if I maintained eye contact with him, he’d be able to see how much his words affected me.“Don’t get me wrong Adrian Belkov. I don’t give a shit about you. The only person I’m obliged to listen to, is your mom. So I ask again, wasn't getting married to me because of the company?
~ISABELLA~For someone who hated Adrian, I panicked and was the first to reach the scene where I saw Adrian lying passed out on the floor.I made a silent prayer that it better be that he passed out and not just died.So I quickly checked his pulse and heaved a deep sigh of relief when I realized that he was alive.Susanna rushed to us and knelt beside Adrian too. She looked like she was about to break down.“What are you guys waiting for?” she yelled at the maids. Call the doctor now!!”The security men in the house came to lift Adrian and took him to his room.I know it was wrong, but I kind of wished Adrian would remain that way, because he looked so peaceful and handsome now that he was quietly still and not trying to get on my nerves.“Stop pacing about mother. Calm down. He is still alive,” I tried to calm her down but she kept pacing back and forth.“You're not the right person to tell me that because you're pacing too Bel,” She told me.It was then that I noticed I had been pa
ADRIAN’S POV “You see that girl you met when you and Adrian walked into our house?” Susana asked Isabella while I peeped through the half-opened bathroom door. Why was I hiding? I still didn’t know, or should I say I was in denial. I was embarrassed to face Isabella after the hot make-out section
ADRIAN’S POV“He is gay; do you know that? But I still love him, and I am willing to be with him. So back the hell off, bitch.” The slender girl said and slapped Isabella on her cheek.This enraged me, but before I could say anything more, Isabella slapped her back.Nice job, my little vixen, I wanted
~ADRIAN~“Your foster Dad is dead,” Ivan said, making me freeze.I was shocked to my very core. How did my Dad die? I wasn't aware he was sick. So how the fuck was he dead?My heart ached after hearing this. My heart ached for Susana, my foster Mom. I knew how much she loved my foster Dad.I mean w
~ISABELLA~“What do you mean by this house now belongs to you?” Adrian asked his Uncle with a frown.I frowned too because I knew his Uncle wasn’t up to any good. I know I hadn't come into their lives for long but I knew a bad person when I saw one.Adrian's Uncle chuckled dryly afterward and raise
