Rafael's POVI rolled my eyes around the place looking for Natalie, but I couldn't find her! I wondered why I hadn't seen her since the party had been started. Although there was a caterer, she insisted on taking care of all the party details by herself. After my father's death, I moved into Mirren's mansion as the legal heir. Natalie became as a part of my daily life routine since we are now living under one roof. Even though our rooms were too close, I never stepped into her room, and neither did she. We kept our own space from each other, unlike in the old days when we were too close.In the past, when she was a little girl, whenever I came for a visit, she never got out of my side, until she fell asleep and I put her in her bed. But later on, things had been changed… For now, I married her in an incomplete marriage. That marriage was upon the will of my father, and neither of us wanted it. It’s all about how she could get her legacy as a legal member of the Marine family. After

Natalie's POV‘What was he angry about!!’ I thought.But OMG!! The word sex from his lips had another taste, my whole body trembled, and a shiver went down my spine. Dangerously, I felt like I would be exposed to him! I can't afford the consequences if he knew that I meant no one other than him!I looked around pretending to be looking for someone and said, "He is not here, yet!"Rafael was still silent, he just tightened his grip around me, so I was afraid he didn't believe me. I completed saying with my stupid fake smile, "I will arrange to make you both meet someday" I hoped he would forget about it once he got involved with Debbie later on at the dance stage.I should not let him know my feelings or I would have made a fool of myself."My pleasure!" he said with his masculine voice and a strange twinkle in his eyes.I saw Debbie coming towards us. Swimmingly, I sighed in relief, pulled my hands from his neck, and stepped back.Debbie gripped Rafael's hand, smirked, and demanded,

Natalie's POV"I don't sleep with married women, ma'am. Especially if they were drunk!" Daniel explained with his French accent.I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. How the hell does he know about the marriage? I don't even know him!!"What? How do you know?" I snapped in a daze.He raised his eyebrows and looked confused, "It's just a principle, ma'am. You know, not to touch what's not mine!"‘How sweet!’ I thought, feeling a headache coming.I pressed my fingers on my forehead. The strong headache was banging me while I'm saying, "No, no. I mean, what made you think that I'm married?""You're married to Mr Mirren, aren't you? You shouldn't let him abuse you" He declared, and a sad expression on his handsome face.I opened my mouth in shock. No one knew about that except the lawyer!“A beautiful woman like you shouldn't let anyone bully her” he added, staring at me with pity.Every word that came out of his mouth made me feel more confused and more afraid. He made me remember Raf's

Natalie's POVMy jaw started to hurt, but Rafael did not pull his hand, he kept looking deeply in my eyes. His face hovered so close, his thumb grazed my lower lip, touching it very slowly, and unawares he pushed his finger between my lips!I felt as though I had been ensnared, intoxicated by his gaze, his scent, and his proximity.How can a woman possibly push away the man she loves when he's this close, tempting her beyond measure?My gaze lingered on his face, while his eyes remained fixated on my lips.Suddenly, he sprang to his feet, as though jolted by electricity! He swiftly moved to the farthest point from me and stared out of the window.Confusion swept over me, leaving me at a loss for words."You cannot engage in a sexual relationship until we annul this marriage," he declared, his tone commanding.It was the first time he referred to it as marriage. Previously, he had called it the contract, the agreement. Despite his commanding tone, I found myself questioning his authorit

Natalie's POVI lazily tossed and turned in bed, eventually opening my eyes to check the time. Seeing a black bed sheet covering my body made me tense up and become fully awake—I had never chosen black for my room. I stared at the unfamiliar bedroom for a moment before realizing it was Rafael's apartment. But why am I here?I took off the bed cover and discovered that I was wearing only my underwear. A blush spreaded across my skin. I couldn't remember much, except that Raf and I had gotten into his car. Did he take off my dress?I couldn't believe that Raf might have done that! Did he really take off my dress?I remembered being at the spa yesterday when Rebecca had mocked me, saying, “After this extreme care, you're supposed to go straight to your boyfriend's bed.”She was trying to make fun of me because I refused to be in a sexual relationship, even a temporary one."You're missing out on a lot of fun," Fillo assured me.But I always dreamed of saving myself for the man who would b
