Chapter 1

Belle's POV"No." I screamed. "I am not leaving him" Christian's father turned from where his son laid on the bed in the large room to look at me. There was fire in his eyes, ready to burn at the slightest annoyance."It's not a request young lady." He said sternly. "You are going to leave and never come back. Do you understand me?" He asked.I shook my head uncontrollably. He couldn't do this to me. I wasn't going to allow him do this to me. I knew how much money and power he had but it wasn't right for him to destroy my relationship and life easily like this."Christian will be crushed when he wakes up. He will look for me and if he realizes that I'm gone, I…."I was sobbing profusely as the sound of the rain broke through the windows.He was lying down there. Christian, the love of my life was lying down there, connected to life support machines and his parents wanted me to just leave him there. For no just cause."He won't even remember you."I shifted my gaze to the weak voice th

Chapter 2

Belle’s POV I looked into the eyes of Christian as I turned to his voice. He didn’t change much. His expression I couldn’t read but still, he remained handsome. It had been so long since I saw him lying there as the life support machines he was connected to had tried doing their job of bringing him back to life.Now he was awake and healthy. And the look he had in his eyes was too difficult to comprehend.“Christian” I called, moving a little bit away from the counter so that the lady could attend to other people waiting in line. “What are you doing here?” I asked but he didn’t reply. He just stared at me, probably surprised that I was alive and breathing well.“You are causing a scene.” he muttered later in a stern voice when he must have realized that his staring was beginning to make me uncomfortable.“Oh” I exclaimed. “Sorry about that.” I apologized not knowing the reason for the apology. “But what are you doing here?” I demanded. I didn’t run away back to my childhood city to h

Chapter 3

Christian's POV.I watched the color disappear from Belle's face when I muttered those two words. She didn't reply immediately. She only stared, as if processing what I had just said.Served her right, I thought. She was sitting opposite me, looking beautiful as always. I wanted to touch her, I was dying to touch her, but everytime, the thought of the pain of waking up from my coma five years ago and not seeing her there was enough to keep my hands away.I looked for her. Searched for her like a crazy person, yet I couldn't find her. No one had hurt me like she did. And now she was sitting before me, listening to a proposition of me asking for her hand in marriage. I wanted to punish her for leaving me. I wanted to tie her down so that she wouldn't be able to love anybody else and still wouldn't get love from me. She deserved to pay for what she did to me. And if I will inherit the company in the process, then two birds will be killed with one stone.Her response was taking a while s

Chapter 4

Belle's POVMy heart was beating heavily in my chest but I tried my best to show composure. I was about to make a very big decision, one that would change my life for the next six or eight months, so I needed all the composure I could gather.Christian didn't say a word to acknowledge what I had said. He only leaned forward, enough to allow me take in his wonderful scent, and used the key card to open the door.I didn't realize I had closed my eyes when he leaned in and immediately opened them to inspect the opened room. I walked slowly into the large suite, taking in the view of the beautiful room. Christian walked over to release the curtains and turn on the remaining lights, as if he needed a certain kind of caution around me.When he was done with what I figured out to be his hotel ritual, he offered me a seat which I took. Then he sat opposite me, a serious look on his face."Yes Belle." he said.I raised the folder up and went into business immediately, since he didn't want to

Chapter 5

Belle's POVThe look on their faces was priceless. I saw different expressions in them. His father was annoyed, his mother disgusted. As for Gabrielle, hers was expressionless but I knew she wouldn't have flowers to give to me."Belle?" Lucy called. "Belle?" Your ex-girlfriend who abandoned you on your sick bed? She's your wife?" She asked, eyes wide in shock. I wasn't surprised at her attitude, but the way she spoke about me abandoning Christian, as if they had nothing to do with it was disgusting.Christian didn't reply. He only nodded his head. He was a man of very few words who wasn't swayed easily by baseless talks.I didn't speak either. He had commanded me not to. They didn't need to know that being his wife also sounded ridiculous to me, because unlike him, weddings were sacred to me."You got married in St Louis?" His father asked sternly, cutting me stern looks while addressing his only son."You got married without any of your family members present? How could you do that?"

Chapter 6

Belle's POV.I used my right palm to massage myself after the realization of the slap had hit me. I stared at her, wondering why she had done that."You came back?" Lucy asked, anger in her voice. "You had the effontery to come back after the warning we gave to you?" She asked again.I couldn't respond to her questions. I tasted blood in my mouth due to the slap and didn't want to suffer another one."With your parents dying, do you suddenly think you have nothing to lose? We warned you to stay away, didn't we?" She asked me."I did." I replied softly and calmly. "I left him and I stayed away""Then what the hell are you doing here? Claiming to be married to my son?" She asked and when there was no response, continued to talk."He never mentioned you. For the past four years, after he got tired of searching for you, he stopped mentioning you. He was fine and healed of you, so tell me why the hell you are back? When did this so called relationship begin that it even led to a secret mar

Chapter 7

Belle's POVI continued to look at Gabrielle as she stood at the door, a basket of fruits in her hands. I didn't know if telling her to come in would sit well with her, after all, this was her cousin's house. She must have been here thousands of times."Gabrielle." I called again but she only rolled her eyes at me and entered into the house."I forgot Christian was married." She started but turned around suddenly to look at me. "Oh but it is quite easy to forget, isn't it?"I sighed. The last thing I wanted after receiving Christian's wrath this morning was another drama."Make yourself comfortable, Gabrielle." I said to her and was about to walk out when she called."You haven't even apologized. To me. For walking out and allowing me to deal with whatever it was Christian was going through alone. You walked out and now you're back as if nothing happened." She said shaking her head and going back to the business of arranging the fruits she got inside the fridge.I watched what she was

Chapter 8

Christian's POVI was still holding her against the wall, my lips now inches away from hers. I wasn't going to kiss her. I only wanted to torment her more. I wanted her to want it so badly and then I'd step away."Answer me Belle." I said one more time. "Have you witnessed what an animal is capable of?" I asked.She didn't say anything. She just stared at my eyes, breathing heavily. Her heart was pounding. I knew it because I couid feel it on her wrist. Whatever her heart was pounding for, I didn't seem to understand.Was she scared? Nervous? Or just wanted me to kiss her."Let go of me." She shrugged off my hold after a while and I released her. She took four steady breathe-ins and outs as I watched for her reaction."You have changed so much Christian." She said, her eyes huge with anger and nerves and I nodded my head in agreement. She could think whatever she wanted about me. I didn't care.Her hair was parked roughly on her head and she looked like someone who had been thoroughly

Chapter 9

Christian's POVConfusion clouded my mind as I stared into the face of Bernard; Belle's childhood friend and bestfriend, wondering what the hell he was doing in my house.He stood up from his seat immediately I entered and had a weird expression on his face. He always annoyed me with that look, as if he was better than everyone else.I was mad that I had wasted my beloved time to find out that the supposed man in my house was only Bernard."Hello Christian." He said to acknowledge me.He was used to saying just few words to me. Even at the court, when Belle and I had signed the marriage forms, 'Hello Christian' had been the only thing he had said to me throughout the entire time."Hello Bernard." I said in return and turned to talk to Belle."You didn't tell me we were expecting a visitor." I said trying my best not to sound angry at her. She didn't need to know I was pissed off."I didn't know he was coming either." She replied. "He only called when he was at the airport and I gave h

Chapter 10

Belle's POVI stood at the doorway staring at him. His noise had brought me out of my room and seeing how he struggled on the bed when I came in, got me scared."How long have you been standing there for?" He asked again, still breathing heavily."Christian I...""Get out!" He said.I was dumbfounded, I sincerely hoped in my heart that what I had seen had not been one of his sleep disorders."Allow me....." I started walking into the room but halted on my heels when I caught the look on his face."Out!" He shouted. "Get out Belle!" I turned at the order and walked out of the room.I didn't know why I had walked into his room. He had explained and marked our territories. I wasn't supposed to go in there.I sat at the dinning, tapping my foot on the ground. He had been very rude and arrogant towards me from the beginning of the contract but I still found a way to worry about his well being in my heart.He stormed into the dining room moments later and walked straight to me. The expressi
