It's been 3 days since Christian is at home. He can finally walk, "1.. 2.. 3 Go!" He shouted as we both started running; starting the race from the main Gate to the Entrance of the hall. He was exuberant because he can walk again. But in the race, I, of course, being faster wins the race. I began to cheer in joy. "Damn.. you're fast," he said. I put my hand on my waist proudly. "I know, turtle." "Well, don't forget about the race of the rabbit and the tortoise." He retorted. "I'm not like that rabbit." I sneered. We then began to laugh, "Tell him Samuel, who won?" I asked Samuel who is currently the judge to see who wins. "Of course, you, Ma'am." He smiled. I beamed showing my victory and then we began to laugh. Then, we went to have lunch, as we were eating, Christian asked, "Did you talk to Eugene?" "Nah, Leave him for a while." I replied casually. "Aren't you worried about his whereabouts?" "He is at our old home and currently looking for a job, let's see how lon
Mother stated to which I replied back quickly, "I forgive him, Mother, please... He can't be alone." I pleaded, remembering about that night. How badly it affected him only to hear I want to leave. "He? You are still thinking about him. What about you Sophie? He defiled you!" "He is repentant and I forgive him! I signed the contract, I have legally given him all my consent" I said, shutting my eyes. I know Christian is too shocked upon hearing my words but it's true. Whenever I look at him he is filled with penitence. It's been almost three months since that day. It's enough, I am the one who gave him this authority so why would I go against him? I don't want him to suffer anymore. “He neglected the basic demand of our contract. Intercourse, Mother. He doesn’t touch, maintains his distance.” I whispered, hoping she might listen but to no avail. "You are still not going with him. Accept her as your wife and love her, Christian. And you are free to take her with you." She
Christian POV:- After leaving Aunt's place. I went to Tyler. I am beyond angry, how could he tell her? He is the only one who knows about it. Why did he tell Aunt about it in the first place? “How could you do this to me, asshole?” I muttered. I have told him that me and Sophie are on good terms now then why? I cannot fathom. I grit my teeth in irk, my fury burning inside me. I can’t leave Sophie. Aunt can't take Sophie away from me. I need her presence. I need her smile. “I need her.” I don't know what I am feeling for her but she is mine and no one can take her away from me. I barged in his house as he was shocked to see me. I grabbed his collar and looked at him furiously. "Why the hell did you tell Aunt about that day!?" "Hey.. what are you talking about?" He asked, confused. "Only you knew about the night at the party, why in the bloody hell did you tell Aunt Skye about it?!" I hissed. "Let go, man! I didn't tell anyone anything." He said pushing me away, frownin
"Hmm. It's easy. Confess your love in front of everyone." He suggested the obvious. "As if I don't know that. I can't do it. Sophie doesn't love me, why would she? And maybe I do too. I have to do something that can convince Aunt." I said. "Don't say this. I think she loves you." He said. I let out an empty laugh upon hearing this. "I don't think so.." I said looking away. "You sure you don't want to love her?" He asked, eyeing me intensely. "I don't." I spoke firmly but he leaned in a little, "Really?" He asked me, giving me a mischievous look. "Yeah..." I said looking away, trying to deny what he is trying to force out. "Confirmed?" "Hmm." And he knew how to force answers out of one’s mouth. "Hmmmm?" "Okay, I do!" I confessed and he began to cheer. "The party is near!" He shouted. "Shut up!" I glared but he continued to cheer in blithe. After a few moments, he calmed down and asked, "By the way, If I didn't tell her, then who did? I haven’t met Aunt Amelia in a while
I walked towards her and looked her dead in the eyes. Those eyes that always lied to me but I believed in them. The one, from whom I left the world- even Sophie but she betrayed me. By looking at her all the agonizing pain inside me dwells up but I won’t tolerate it if she does anything to Sophie. "If you did anything to her. I'll show you your worst nightmare. I'll give you a life worse than death if a scratch appears on her delicate skin because of you.” I scowled, terrorizing her. “I will lose myself and the enmity between us will begin where a painful life lies ahead for you. So watching whatever you're gonna do might become a step towards hell." I threatened as she began to cry and left terrified. She knows that I am not lying. If she does anything, she'll pay. After she left Tyler trailed off, "Wow, man, You're just..." I smirked and also turned to leave, "By the way, what you said about your feelings for Sophie, was it true?" He was intrigued. A smile came to my li
Sophie POV:-I entered my room absolutely stunned about what had just happened. I looked at my reflection in the mirror, my face was deep red. “Oh my God, Oh my God.”I put a hand over my heating cheek as I took deep breaths to calm my thumping heart. I touched my lips as a smile crept upon them. This was so affectionate. My eyes bore into his as I lost myself in those raven pools of endearment.The feeling of fondness and the tenderness of his touch, they made me feel butterflies in my stomach. A fluttering happiness took over me when he said those sweet words. I never liked this before, what happened to that feeling of abhor?I feel so attached to him. He is evoking such sensations in my heart that I can't control myself and couldn't help but ... to fall for him. “I can’t believe it…”He is inducing the emotions of amor in me, painting the colors of love inside me while pulling me close to him. Now I want to go away with him, get lost in each other as this moment never comes ag
"I am not going to say anything now, Wait for tomorrow's surprise, I am sure you're gonna love it." He said as I felt too elated. Feeling deep happiness as if I can finally have a normal life with him. I smiled widely and nodded in blithe."Just you wait." He winked as my whole being stiffed as I felt a sensation of sudden lust rushing in my veins giving me an eerie feeling I have never felt before. He noticed my look as he smirked and moved to my neck and whispered,"Turned on already?" He teased as I blushed madly and turned my head away,"N-no." I stuttered as he chuckled and I lost my strength. Just what spell has he cast on me?"You shouldn't be or else you will faint from tomorrow's surprise." He said huskily as I abruptly took a step back.In a sudden movement, I was against the wall and his hands on either side of me."I will never touch you without your consent..." He said leaning in,"And tomorrow, you'll beg me to take you." He said in his deep husky voice again which mad
A sheepish smile formed on my lips when yesterday's events flash in my mind. Oh, how he kissed me in front of Mother. Thinking about it gave me butterflies.As I was thinking, I looked at the time and left to meet Candice. At home, the time is not passing, I am glad she called. I was about to leave but mother asked,"Where are you going?""To meet Candice. Time isn't passing at all." I whined as mother chuckled,"Take care." She kissed my forehead and I left.I went to a cafe and saw her. We hugged as she squeaked, she was elated upon seeing me, "In months, you looked like a graceful woman." She complimented. I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing. I looked at myself then at her,"You sure?" I asked as she grinned and nodded. We then took a seat and began to chat."Why didn't you tell me about your relationship with him?" She asked."I.. just.." I shyly trailed off to persuade her and it worked as she laughed,"Oh, How shy." She winked. She also believed in that press conferenc
