Chapter 1 Chapter 1
I WOKE UP to see a man beside me—a familiar man who I never imagined would let himself be fooled by me. I gulped as I caught a glimpse of what happened last night---I was in a bar, having drinks alone to ease the anxiety I had crossed again because of the fear that something might happen soon. My ex-boyfriend reacted to my story, and I know he's trying to plot something again.
I hate it. I hate how I reacted because I know I shouldn't be affected like this, but what the hell did I do? I desperately asked someone to marry me! What shame will I do just to escape my past?
I just don't want to get involved with my ex again. I've been begging God to make my boyfriend find someone else so he wouldn't come back to me, but why do I feel like he's still controlling my life over me?
I inhaled as I tried to get up and fix myself. I shouldn't have asked this man to marry me for such a petty reason. That's bullshit. I'm leaving now. He probably won't come looking for me like the ones I saw on TV. We just shared a night, and that's it. It probably won't be a big deal to someone like him, and he'll just ignore the big trouble I've caused. Also, it's impossible for a man to consider a ridiculous proposal like that. Who in his right mind would agree to marry a woman he doesn't know? And I also know they don't like responsibility; men are often like that. If they don't run away, they'll make you look like you're worthless. So, like I said earlier, I'm leaving now. I also won't get pregnant from what we did because I didn't put a bullet inside me.
I removed the blanket that was covering my body and was about to get off the bed when I felt the bed shift. One of his hands reached out to me as he lightly stroked my body, down to my jewel that was still swollen from what he had done to me. I was surprised when he pulled me back to him.
"Where are you going, huh?" he asked, as if he knew full well that I was planning to escape. "You're leaving me?" His voice was low, and it was obvious that he hadn't regained his strength from the amount of work we had done last night. I still remember the hoarseness of both of us.
"Yes, I am leaving you," I answered him seriously. He lifted me up and made me lean against the headboard.
"And why would you do that?"
His right eyebrow arched. He also moved his head and placed it on top of my stomach. I was about to answer when he nibbled my nipple. My feet suddenly jolted as my legs raised just as my head turned away. Damn it. He's not done yet. And I can't stop him because no woman can possibly push away a gorgeous man, naked, with a chiseled body who can wrap me around, a face with a strong jawline, expressive eyes that I can definitely not reject, and an erect soldier that pleases me all night long and is now ready to be a weapon again. He's so huge that a ruler is not enough to measure how thick and wide he is. I can still remember how I couldn't grope him using a single hand and even put it in my mouth without crying. It is still on my mind how far he reached me inside, and I know no one can ever go there except for him.
"Uhmm... I-I j-just thought th-that m-my proposal was ab-brupt. I kn-now y-you might not mean your y-yes," I stuttered. How can I speak clearly when he's playing with my nipples using his tongue?
"Explain it to me in a way I can understand, my wife." He continued sucking on my other breast. I couldn't help but reach for the headboard as he also inserted a finger into my wet folds. I did not imagine we would actually do this in daylight, as if we had not finished a lot of times already last night.
"I want to t-take back w-what I said. Marrying me is r-ridiculous. Who a-am I? Ahhh... s-stop it... ahhh..."
He chuckled softly—a laugh that caught me off guard. I didn't think I would stare at him because of his delicious laugh.
"We already got married last night, Jade Maurice Solieza... no, not Solieza anymore, because you're my Mrs. Lavarre. Jade Maurice Solieza-Lavarre."
My eyes widened at his words. What does he mean? We got married? When? Last night? Why can't I remember anything? I can't even remember his name!
"So stop telling me that you're backing out. The moment you let my dick come inside your pussy, that is a compact we will never break. You are already my wife, Mori, and I am your loving husband, Hendeix Kai Lavarre."
My eyes widened when I realized who he was.
What the hell did I hear? Am I hearing it right?!
Hendeix Kai Lavarre?!
The man behind every successful downfall of other companies because if it were just to conquer the country, he would be like Spain! He territorializes all the companies and manipulates them to get it for him! Why, of all the people I asked to marry—wrong, I married them because he said we were already married—is he still the one?!
"Why do you look so surprised, my wife? Or are you just that ecstatic about how I can please you with my mouth?"
