Chapter-46
Vanessa's POV:
Next day,
I got ready for work, I am kind of looking forward to it. At least it's better to get out of here.
I saw him checking me out from the mirror, he is kind of pervert. No.... He haven't done anything crossing the line. I am quite fine with it, Like I don't want to feel that attraction to him anymore.
I am dressed in this expensive piece of fabric. It's a dress but I hope it's on the professional side, but the looks are making me think I might look a little... little hot!
He smirked commenting, "Should we just stay.... I remember something important to do..." He licked his lips.
God! what's with him!!!!
I turned to him as I said, "We are getting late Mr. Morris...."
He got closer to me, he holds my hand in his, he say, "It's Seth for you.... My lovely fiancé..."
I blushed, god damn it!!! he doesn't mean it.
My subconscious taunted, "But don't you want him to mean it!!!" I hissed at myself for thinking this stupid.
He took me to his car, pulling me in the back seat. I admit sitting in the back seat with him is weird. I mean he is kind of intimidating.
We walked in the club, there are not much people just the staff, everyone looked at me since Seth was holding my hand. I am so embarrassed.
I whispered to him, "Can't you let go?"
He ignored me, instead pulled to himself, his hand was now on my waist.
Big mistake!!!
I shouldn't have mentioned!
I noticed Greg stopped, he was looking at weirdly, His hand were carrying a file, the supplier list. I know... I helped him in that few times.
He said to us, "God! Vanessa got a new promotion!..."
He taunted, I hate this guy!
Seth said cold to him, "Call her Madam from now on.... and she is my personal Assistant... plus fiancé"
I looked at Seth glaring, Greg smirked as he said, "fiancé ?"
Seth let my hand go, he said, "Coffee in 5 minutes..." He walked upstairs to his cabin. I just glared at him.
I heard Greg, "Having fun, Madam?" He has need to press peoples nerves.
I am angry as said to him, "I am no Madam... stop this madness...."
He chuckled looking away, Greg then said to me, "You didn't realize your future?.... When you walked in this place you should have known, he had an eye on you.... Or if he hates every women why would he want a women to be near him 24/7...."
I kept my eyes on him, Greg smiled saying, "He asked you move in his cabin.... ring bells?...." I kept my eyes on him full of anger, he didn't need to remind me of my blind mind!
Greg said pocketing his hand, "Honestly, I knew from the start, he has something for you... that's why I never touched you, or I would Have tried my luck.... You are so Naïve, Madam Vanessa...."
He said, "Now... please... get a coffee for your dear future husband or.... if you are kind enough, get me one too.... I am working my ass off for you couple...."
I pointed my finger on his face as I said, "I am never marrying him!!" He chuckled, he showed me the way as he gestured me to leave!
Soon, I walked in with a coffee, I place it in front of him carefully .... but I want to throw it on his damn face!!!
He set me up!!! If Greg was right, I was an big idiot to fall for everything!!!
I whispered, "You are drinking coffee today... usuall-" he pulled me on his lap, I am shocked.
But he pulled me closer as he sighed. He whispered, "You look quite lovely.... It's bothering me that you are walking around the club... those eyes scanning you...."
I turned my face away from him, I whispered, "They are just thinking I am a god digger!!!... Last week I was a employ now... this shit!"
He made me turn at him, I left a small scream as I felt shivers by the way his hand moved around me. He chuckled darkly.
He whispered, "If... anyone thinks that... I will hunt them down..." He pressed his lips on my cheeks. He should not do that. It feels like cares for me.
I whispered, "Seth.... Not here...."
F*ck! I should say don't touch me but I said not here... then where the f*ck you want him to bang you!!!
I am so disappointed in myself!!!
Just kill me already!
Seth said, "Nobody is here, Sugar... what is the matter!!!"
I finally pushed him, I got out of his grip and stood up like I newly learnt him. Seth smirked looking at me, I said, "I agreed for the fiancé thing... not for... for this!"
He chuckled, he whispered, "Yea... we can see that tonight... I can barely stop myself..." Why I feel like my cheeks are heating up!!!
The images were flashing in my brain... god I want to feel that again!!!
NO!!!
No!
I am just a pervert!
I whispered, "That's never going to happen.... I am busy...." I walked to my table and somehow arranged everything so I won't see him looking at me.
I adjusted the computer such that it will block his damn handsome face. Why he had to cut his hair? it gave him sexy look!!!... I am going crazy!!!
I am forced into this... I cannot fall for his looks!
Same night,
I unsurely looked at the bed.....
I can't stay with him on the same bed.... I won't....
Yea... I won't that's the right answer.....
I know.... Most times I had a argument with him, he has his way.
But today I won't give into him.
I startled to see him getting in the room, he was not even looking at me. I can tell he isn't in a good mood either.
He threw his shirt away as he getting ready for the bed. But why he hand to be half naked.
I saw him getting in the bed, he texted someone as he sat there. He looks really angry, what happened.
I took advantage of his distraction, I slowly took the pillow I see the couch, I am going to sleep there from today. He won't let me step out of this room, my old room is giving other maid.... So... I either sleep here or in the hall....
or worst in the garden?
Seth was soon on the call, Seth warned someone, "Do the job properly.... If I notice anything then I will shoot you myself"
He is really Cruel!
I slept on the couch, I was holding a book I randomly borrowed from Kara that day. I am pretending to read it as I got comfortable on the couch, A small blanket was on my body, I was reading the book under the small lamp here.
I heard Seth, "What's this new stunt?"
I looked at him like a idiot. I played dumb, "What...."
Seth sat up, he said, "Get in the bed before I drag you and spank you too...."
My face was red, the images of his words flashed in my mind.... my heart caught speed too..... I must be crazy!
I said confident, "I... I just feel like reading" Beside trying to be confident I did stutter.
Seth smirked, I said, "I will get there.... but few more minutes...."
He chuckled he whispered, "I not in mood right now... I am quite angry, I don't want you to go through this... just get in bed... Today I won't do anything...."
I looked at him, does he mean it?
But didn't he said something different in the club. I looked away, I clearly don't want to be in trouble.
I whispered to his stern face, "I... Can I read few more minutes?... I won't be able to sleep the book got interesting....."
Seth smirked he said, "Fine... but honestly, Vanessa if I don't feel you in bed.... I will lock you up in this mansion...." I looked down...
Another threat!!!
I heard him, "10 minutes...." He got comfortable in the bed trying to sleep.
I looked at him pressing the book against my lips. So... he is really asleep...
But what if.... I sleep on the couch and then sneak in the morning.
then thoughts ran wilder, if I didn't work up then what... but if I get in the bed and if he does something then what.... Mafia cannot be trusted....
I kept fighting with myself, until I noticed it's almost 9 minutes out of 10 he gave me. I kept the book away, I cannot afford to be locked here.
But he is asleep so, it's like sleeping with a doll. It's not the first time sharing the bed with him .... but... still...
I got in the bed pulling the comforter on me, I tried to sleep. Few minutes went by and I though he is really asleep.
When he embraced me pulling to himself, he tried to sleep as he said, "wise choice...."
I feel comfortable..... but knowing this is just one of his sick game, he just wants to get rid of Luna and her family.... that's why I am his fiancé....
Or why would he let me here?
I pushed his hand off me, moved to the corner of the bed. I just want to pull myself away before it really starts to break me.
These emotions are real, but for someone who doesn't even like me. He is just using me.
He will hurt me in the end, when he will walk away when the purpose is met. This contact with him might give my heart false hope, truth is I never felt all of these for someone else, his words affect me. So, it's hard to express what his touch does to me.
I hugged the pillow burring myself in it, I don't want to love a person who doesn't love me.
I got pulled again into him, My eyes were already dropping tears. I saw his angry face, but I could just press my lips together.
I felt like he was trying to understand why I was crying. He can never understand, he doesn't feel what I do.
I feel being played... I feel betrayed by his actions, acting this close to me but distant at the same time... It f*cking hurts.
He asked stern, "Why?" I looked at him out of words, I diverted my eyes off him.
I will not like to express these feeling to him, when he can't even feel empathy!
He pulled my chin back to him as he whispered, "I asked something...." Some more tears fell down, why is he doing this?
Can't he understand, I feel like drowning in my tears and feeling... these feelings shouldn't be there in the first place.
He warned this time quite angry, "Vanessa!"
I whispered as I was still in his arm, he was looking in my eyes. I whispered, "I... I miss... miss my parents..... their death anniversary is next month...." I can't tell him what I feel.
I lied to him, but this also truth my Parents death Anniversary is next month.... but I can handle missing them without crying like a pathetic person, it's been so long... I am use to it....
But today my tears are for you.... and you will not understand.
I just saw him looking at me with no expression, I looked away trying to wipe my tears. But I soon felt a kiss on my forehead, I closed my eyes.
Seth....
Please don't do this to my heart......
He pulled into embrace, His hand was moving in circle on my back trying to comfort me?
Is he trying to comfort me?
He doesn't mean it.....
I just want to remind myself this.
I heard him, "You and me are quite same....."
He sighed, he whispered, "both of us... are nothing but Orphans....." My eyes went wide. He... He really feel bad for me....
But he is not an Orphan, you have a mother Seth, she loves you. You are lucky, you just don't get it. Your anger and hate are standing blot.
He whispered, "We are both unlucky.... but I am here.... so are you..... what else matter now?"
He is saying this as if we love each other?
I looked at his face he look sleepy, He gave me a smile, putting his hand over my eyes. His large hand covered my eyes.
His scent is already taking to comfort, his warmth is making my heart beat..... and I must be crazy to take his words to heart.... Make something out of it... ......Is it finally Love?
Can I be in love with a person as him?
This is going to give the pain I can never get out of.... I want to stay away from it.... But Seth, if you keep doing this how will I hate you?
Seth whispered, "Just sleep.... it's late, Sugar..." I shouldn't take his actions to heart, but how can I stop this heart when he so warm and nice to me now.
My subconscious whispered, 'It's too late to go back'
I hope it's not.
