Never!!

Chapter 20Nicholas' PovMy eyes widened with shock.Damn it! I never expected that she would ask that question. When grandfather had asked about it, I had dismissed it and forgotten about it just after that.I eyed her, my hands balling into a fist. She cocked an eyebrow, still staring at me. "Hello?""Isn't it too early for us to worry about birthing children? We got married barely an hour ago!" I groaned as I leaned on the back of the car seat. "Your grandfather needs a child from us." She repeated. I rolled my eyes, already tired of where this was headed. I shifted uncomfortably, avoiding her gaze. "We'll cross that bridge when we get to it."My jaw clenched at the mention of his name. "We were business rivals. He thought he was above me, always trying to one-up me."She folded her arms on her chest. "Alright. I have one more question."I sighed, "Okay?"I shifted uncomfortably, avoiding her gaze. "We'll cross that bridge when we get to it."Her eyes narrowed. "And what about Na

Faking it

CHAPTER 21SIA POV"Sia!" I heard Nicholas call behind me as I rushed for the car. Soon, I got in and slammed the door. My eyes stung with tears and a sharp ache jabbed at the back of my head. How exactly did I get into all this mess? Why did I sign a contract marriage with a man whose mother hated everything about me?I had always known that Nicholas' mother never liked me. I didn't expect her to be all over me, seeing how badly she wanted her son to still be with his ex, Lily. I shuddered at the idea of having to deal with his mother for the next two years. I held my head in my palms, sobbing hard. My vision blurred. The door opened again and shut. Nicholas. He had gotten into the car and he sat next to me. The driver began to drive. "As stated in our contract, you will be living in my house." Nicholas said after some minutes. I didn't make any attempt to look up at him or question him over what had happened inside the house, earlier. Rather, I tried to steady my breath, fo

Save yourself

CHAPTER 22SIA POV"How time flies." He said, rising from the couch. "Few days ago, you were my fiancee and today, you are wearing another man's ring. I must confess, that wedding gown suits you so well"I narrowed my eyes, looking at him keenly. "That doesn't answer my question, Nathan. What are you doing in my house?"He broke into a mirthless laugh. "The last time I checked, your father had disowned you for causing him so much shame. So, technically, this isn't your house"I took some steps forward and closed up the space between Nathan and I. "I will ask this question one more time. What are you doing here?" I said, glaring at him. He reached out to touch my face and withdrew his hands. "Would it shock you to know that I know your every movement?"My mouth dropped open in disbelief, abd I quickly closed it. "Wha-what?""I knew the exact moment your fake husband dropped you off here."Fake husband?My heart almost flew right out my mouth as his words hit me. Was it easy for him

Where is she?

Chapter 23Nicholas' POVAs the car drove away from Sia's family house, I exhaled. I had no idea that I had been holding my breath for too long until now. At least, I could think clearly, now that she wasn't around me. I was beginning to notice features og her that shouldn't have even caught my attention in the first place. Her lips. So Soft and succulent. Oh my goodness!! The first time I kissed her lips was probably the night we met, and I was way too drunk to properly savor the feeling of having to tug softly at her lips, sucking at them. The next time we kissed was the night she has walked out of dinner at my grandfather's place, upset. And then, Lily showed up. I had no other way of proving to Lily that I was done with her than to kiss Sia.Now, the most recent kiss was the one at the wedding, in front of my family and friends.That kiss wasn't just a random one. I hated to admit it, but I had been earnestly looking forward to another opportunity where I had get to kiss S

We have you, now.

SIA POVChapter 24My eyes opened slowly in a dark room. A stench hit my nostrils and I felt as though I was about to throw up. Where was I? I wondered as I blinked in the pitch darkness. A sharp jolt of pain shot at the back of my head, causing me to wince. The floor was damp and I knew this because I was lying on my face, and the coldness of the ground seeped through me. It was only when I attempted to push myself up from the ground that I realized that my hands were tied. I kicked my feet in the air. They were tied too. Panic snaked its way through me. My mouth ran dry as I gasped. "Hello?" I called out in horror. My voice bounced off the walls in the dark room, echoing. It seemed as though the room was empty because of how loud the echo was. "Is someone there? Anyone?" I cried out again, feeling tears well up in my eyes. I blinked rapidly, trying to stop myself from crying. I hated how I was always quick to break into tears, especially when I got confused or stressed out.

Panic!

Nicholas' POVChapter 25"I'll be waiting to hear a word from you, Nicholas! Please, find my daughter." Mrs Stanton called out behind me as I made my way away from her front door, with Mark trudging after me. I didn't give her any response. My mind was a chaotic as different thoughts swirled in it. I took long strides back to the car, trying everything I could to stop myself from rushing back into Sia's family house to search it probably. It would only be a total waste of time, I reasoned. I didn't want to face Nathan again. Well, I couldn't trust myself to not throw a solid punch at his face. That liar!Nathan Sterling certainly had a whole lot of guts. He had guts to carelessly accuse of me knowing where Sia was. "Boss?" Mark's voice called out besides me. I turned sideways. His hand was outstretched as he held out his phone to me. I cocked my eyebrow at him, "uh?""You have a call from Gregory.""Damn it! Why does he have to call you in order to speak to me?" I asked, as I

What do you think you're doing? Huh?

Chapter 26Sia POV"I don't want to lose her!!" A high pitched voice cried out and I felt a jerk on my shoulder, causing another stab of pain to shoot its way through my body.My eyes opened slowly and shut almost immediately as the bright lights overheard almost blinded me. A shudder ran through me. "Do you think she'll be fine?" The voice spoke again. "Elise, if you want her to be okay..." A husky, male voice cut in "Can we start by having some silence? She isn't awake yet, but you're yapping and—""I don't appreciate being spoken to in that manner, Nicholas!" The other person said sharply. Where was I? I wondered.My head throbbed badly and I felt as though my skin was on fire. I zoned the speaking voices out of my head and kept my eyes shut. I was certain that they hadn't seen when I had first opened my eyes. I felt weak. Too weak to think about anything or anything. Rather, I remained, unmoving until I slowly slipped into unconsciousness. ~ ~ ~ ~The loud slam of a door jo

Chaos!

CHAPTER 27NICHOLAS POVDamn it!What the hell was wrong with me? How could I go from arguing with Sia in one minute to kissing her the next minute. I definitely deserved an award as the craziest man alive. I slowly pulled away from her face, gazing deeply into her eyes. Her breathing had become heavier and her forehead was all sweaty. "You asked whether I care about you, right?" I mumbled. Her jaw dropped open as she stared at me without any word. Our faces were only a few inches away from each other. For the first time, I noticed her light blue eyes, and something stirred within me. The taste of her lips still clung to mine, and it took everything in me to stop myself from cupping her chin to kiss her again. "I care about you, Sia" My voice was hoarse, "I care enough about your safety and as long as you are in my life as my contract wife, I will not put you in any position where you—""Eh-ehem! Am I interrupting anything here?" A voice spoke behind me, causing me to jump away

Who are you?

Chapter 28Nicholas POV"Who are you?" I asked, shoving my hands into my pockets.Something didn't feel right at all. I knew it.I shot a cold stare at the man before me, feeling my skin crawl. He didn't say a word. Rather, he stuck out his hand towards me, expecting a handshake. My eyes fell on his outstretched arm before I looked away from him. I set my lips in a hard line and spun around on my heels to face my mother. "Mum?" I called out, "Who is this?"My mother had a large grin on her face and for the first time, I noticed that she had makeup on. That was unusual. My mother rarely wore makeup at home. She cleared her throat noisily and walked up to me, flashing a smile at the stranger who stood before us. "This is Ethan." She said, as she pointed at the man. "He is a very good friend of your father. Actually, he was your father's bestfriend—""A friend of my father?" I cut in, eying the other man with irritation, "You never told me about him before.""Oh, Nicholas" She said,

You can't leave, okay?

CHAPTER 29SIA'S POV"Do you think he's okay?" Elise asked me as Nicholas pushed past her, on his way out of the room. "What do you mean?" I asked. I wasn't comfortable with talking about Nicholas, especially with a strange doctor in the room. Elise shrugged, "I don't know, really. He seemed..pissed off.""You need to rest, Sia." The doctor said calmly. She held one of my wrists and peered closely at it. I nodded, weak. "Uhm.. May I ask a question?" "Okay?" The doctor said with a warm smile, looking at me. "It's about Nicholas. Did he give you any instructions concerning —""You?" I bobbed my head, "Yes."She chuckled, "He did. He asked me to make sure you are alright.""And?"She narrowed her eyes at me, "Are you expecting to hear something else? Is everything okay?"I shot a glance at Sia who was winking at me from where she stood behind the doctor. "Oh. Okay. Very well, then." I stuttered. "I just needed to know what Nicholas told you while I was still unconscious."She eye
