Lahat ng Kabanata ng Pretend You're Mine (Moon Fever 1): Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

"You're a brilliant woman, Izabella," he replied, causing him to appear amused. A mocking smile appeared on her lips. "That gives me creeps "Save your breath for the fiery question which you might need later. I expect that you empty your plate so I can talk to you with sense," the man said and headed to the door. Her eyes followed the man. "Wait," she called, and he paused at the doorway, his piercing blue eyes returning her gaze. "Who are you? Are you some philanthropist or-" "I am the owner of this house." She waited for him to go on, but his bright arched brow seemed he was done talking. "Can you tell me why I am here?" "As I've said, eat your food, and your questions will be entertained once you're in the right mind. You need it after that drugs were injected into your bloodstream." "H-how did you know?" "I talked to the doctor who examined you. Now, be a good girl and eat." "I'm not done talking," she insisted. The man slowly turned his back to face her again. His arms

The sudden urge to claim her rose - hotter than the blood in his veins - and he had to clench his jaw to keep himself in check. But he could not stop himself from nosing the curve of her neck, inhaling deeply as a low growl rumbled in his chest. More animals than Khrall. His loin stirred to life, which he was aware she felt, and his desire grew more potent at the strangled gasp that passed her lips. It's uncommon for anybody to evoke such a reaction from him and never had it come from somebody he scarcely knew and as youthful as the lady concerned. He sighed deeply and groaned at the images that played in his mind of what had happened a while ago. How could he forget the heat from their body contact as he carried her? When she attempted moving once more, he was constrained to act. Sliding her from his shoulder, he denied her face into his chest and held her legs until they were wrapped around his hips. It was not a perfect position, as he felt her bouncing against his crotch with ea

"That's not all. I need to spend time with you. I like talking to you, and you don't appear awed by my extravagance as you're reluctant. You don't need to believe it, and I regard that. It's been a long time since I've had any regard for a lady. I, too, happen to appreciate ... a show." "A show?" She swallowed. She was concerned with the images that played in her brain. Shithead, is this guy a horny alien? Argh! "I like to observe a lady strip, and that's all I need right now. I need to see you uncover that body to me. Imagine you're strolling on the runway like you did, wearing most of those meager attires." "Yes, exactly. You're pretty odd for an alien to like strippers. Did you get clubs back on your planet? Are you sure your planet doesn't have a name of Oozing spermatozoa?" "No, you're twisting what I said," he picked his nose as if annoyed. However, he wanted to bark with laughter at the naughty rounded expression on her face. Such a playful brain! "You're a strangely alien

"Okay, I appreciate your kind comments, but aren't you going to let me know?" "Do you still remember the reason I married you?" "Yep. To be your companion and stripper, and from what I gather, emotional stuff is not included. Simply put, our agreement does not include falling in love or developing an emotional attachment." "Precisely. Your wording is appropriate." He nodded as he spoke. "I merely came here to look for my lost wife," the speaker said. Izabella focused on the man's assertion. She also didn't get why, after his confession, something suddenly dropped on her shoulders. "You... you've already married someone here?" She inquired with skepticism. "Yes, I was married before I met you, but not here. She is a member of my type. She was sent here to be saved because we were being attacked." "I see," she said softly. She felt a lump in her throat and thought it was good that the man confessed to her before her feelings fell. She realized now that it was forbidden to be emoti

"Levi..." his voice was stern, and his eyes remained shut. "As your employer, I'm asking you to leave my bed. I'm sorry, I can't bring myself to sleep with you as I don't desire your body. I like watching you stripping, but that's about it." "Then let me entertain you, Aleks. I want to--" "I'm a married person on this planet, Levi, and I can't betray that marriage we shared. Respect my order." He felt it when the woman's body stiffened beside him. "This is the last time I'm telling you to stop this nonsense," he uttered coldly. The woman gently got off the bed and cried out of his room. Women... he thought sarcastically. So ironically, the one that I wanted was hard to get. She frustrates me like hell! He grunted in misery. He got up and removed his clothes one by one from the body that fell on the floor before he entered the bathroom fully naked. He turned on the shower and drowned in the rush of water from his head throughout his body. With his eyes closed, the innocent face
