All Chapters of BOUND TO THE TEXAS TYCOON : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

Jasmine’s POVI woke up with a heavy groan, my eyes opening slowly. The pain between my legs was still there, a deep, constant ache that brought everything from last night rushing back. I lay still for a moment, staring at the ceiling. Adonis’s side of the bed was perfectly made, like none of it had ever happened. He was already gone.I sat up carefully, wincing as I swung my legs over the side. When I stood, I limped slightly. It had been my first time. I had always told Sebastian I wanted to wait until marriage. Now the man my mother sold me to had taken that from me.I walked over to the small fridge in the bedroom, grabbed a bottle of water, and swallowed the morning-after pill I had hidden away. I knew how obsessive Adonis could be. After a long shower in the bathroom, I felt a little more awake and headed downstairs.Dominga’s voice carried from the living area as she gave instructions to the maids. She ran the household on the ranch and had been kind to me since I arrived.“Goo

Jasmine’s POVI moved quietly down the dark hallway, my heart hammering so hard I could feel it in my throat.

Adonis’s POV“Where were you?” I asked, looking her up and down. “I don’t think you’re crazy enough to try escaping in your nightwear.”“I haven’t gone anywhere,” Jasmine said quickly. “I was in the kitchen.”“Don’t lie to me.” I stood up from the bed. “I just came from the kitchen. You weren’t there. So where were you?”“I felt hungry, so I went down to get some snacks. Then I stepped outside for a bit of fresh air. That’s all.”I took a slow breath, trying to stay calm. “I don’t want you wandering around the ranch at night. I already have security watching the place, and I’m adding more cameras tomorrow. Don’t do anything you’ll regret. Escaping is pointless anyway.”“I’m not trying to escape again,” she replied. “Why would I put myself through that when I know you’ll always find me?”I studied her face.
