Falling For Mr Mysterious のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

SIA POVI blinked hard!Nothing changed. Nathan still stood rooted to the spot, frowning in the glare of the flashlights. The lady who was with him adjusted her gown and scurried away in the other direction."Nathan, why are you so shameless? Messing around with another woman on the night you engaged me is the peak of it!" I yelled at him."Take that flashlight away from my face." He said.I stormed towards him, "Nathan, how could you?" I demanded. My voice shook with rage.He looked up at me, a smug smile still plastered on his face. " Sia, don't be so dramatic. It's just a little fun,"I felt tears prick at the corners of my eyes, but I refused to cry. Not yet. Not for this cheating wreck of a man."Fun? You call this fun? You're engaged to me, Nathan! We're supposed to be getting married!"He shrugged, his cold eyes shone. "I never promised you exclusivity, Sia. You knew what you were getting into when you agreed to marry me."I felt like I'd been slapped. How could he be so crue

Nicholas POVWhen my eyes opened the next morning, the first thing that hit me was a stinging ache at the back of my head. It felt like a hammer was pounding away, and I couldn't remember why. I swallowed hard and I tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over me. It forced me to fall back onto the pillow.Soon, my eyes adjusted to the dim light, I realized I was in an unfamiliar room. It was a room I didn't ever remember walking into. The high walls were a dull gray, and the furniture was sparse and modern. It was the floor that caught my attention. Shards of broken glasses and bottles littered the wet surface, and the acrid smell of alcohol hung low in the room."What the actual hell?" I said with a small gasp. Panic set in as I struggled to remember how I got there, yet nothing came to mind. My eyes darted as I tried to find any clue, but my mind remained completely blank. That's when I heard a light snore beside me. I turned to see a woman with black hair lying on h

Nicholas POV“What do you mean?” Sia shot up from her bed, surprise framing her face as she stared at me disbelievingly.“Exactly what you heard,” I immediately snapped, pressing my back against the door as I stared at her. “Well, except of course you have a better option.” She didn't say anything, rather she nibbled on her lower lips, her hands crossed over her shoulders as she stared into the distance, deep in thought. I found myself staring at how her cherry pink lips suffered brutality as she dug into her teeth, ‘This is torture,’ I thought to myself as I pushed myself off the door. “We don't have all the time in the world, miss Stanton,” I said, cutting through the silence and her thoughts. “Isn't there some other option rather than this… this… this marriage,” she finally completed after a while of trying to find a word that she wouldn't choke on. “Do you really think I want to get married to you? A stranger I barely know?” I said, standing a bit away from, anger framing my

SIA POV“Brace yourself princess,” Greg said, winking at me through the mirror. “We're here.”A few seconds later, the car pulled over in front of a huge property with high walls and a massive gate which had iron spikes and a heavy looking lock. The top of the wall was sharp barbed wire that seemed to glint.“Where are we?” I asked, feeling a shiver run down my back as I stared at the building.“This is my private mansion,” Nicholas replied, beating Greg to it. “You'll be safe here for now. I'll take you home later… when the heat dies.”“I'm sorry I missed something, what am I staying safe from exactly?” I asked, eyeing him and Greg suspiciously. Nicholas didn't reply to me, rather he alighted from the car and turned around to open the door closest to me. “Get down,” he ordered, taking a step back to give me space to step out. Staring at his rock hard gaze that was quite intimidating. I hesitated for a moment, before stepping out of the car.It was only then that I got a better view

NICHOLAS POVWhat the hell? I cursed underneath my breath. For a second or two, anger seethed through me, and then, it gave way to irritation.Greg was still looking at me, smiling. " Do you like Sia?" He repeated. I cocked an eyebrow, “Your superpower is to be the most annoying dumbass in my life. How do you even sit in one place and formulate things in your head?” Greg didn't budge, instead he continued, “Come on, Nicholas, admit it. You like her.”“No, I don't." I cut in, "As a matter of fact, Sia is the last woman I would ever like. Period!” I ended, a scowl on my face. “I need you to remind me again. Why are you so worked up about her safety?”" Her safety?" I repeated his words. He threw his hands in the air, "Is it obvious enough?""I'm telling you, Greg, I don't like her," I grunted, placing emphasis on my last words. “Save it, Nicholas. You're worried about her, and before you bring up the topic of your reputation, it's not just about your reputation. You're invested in
