A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 46: Twists And Turns On The Dance Floor
Sapphire's POVI snapped back to reality and lifted my head up to see a tall, dark-haired man standing in front of me, his hand extended towards me. I looked at him, taking in his handsome chiseled features which were Brad-Pitt-like. It seemed like almost all the men here were good-looking and should either be on the runway or in showbiz.The stranger was about 6 feet tall, with a strong jawline and bright blue green eyes that appeared as though they sparkled under the gleaming lights of the place. His dark hair was styled in a messy yet charming way, and his suit fit him perfectly, clinging to his somewhat muscular frame. His eyes were more than capable of looking right through anyone they found and his faint smile was mesmerizing.It took me a moment to register what he had said and I was momentarily taken aback, unsure of how to react. The man kept peering straight into my eyes, his smile having faded into a small smirk playing on his lips."Um, I...I'm sorry, what did you say?" I
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 47: Possessive Drama King
Sapphire's POVI spun around to see my 'beloved' fiancé standing there, his eyes blazing with anger and something that I just couldn't really make out. His sudden intrusion caught me off guard. He stepped towards me and Adrian, his eyes never leaving mine. This felt like the time he had walked in on me and Austin at the store. Eric sure had a thing for making a dramatic entrance. It was like he practically lived for drama. He was always so dramatic! And annoying! And irritating!And so damn hot! – my subconscious added.It took every ounce of me not to roll my eyes at myself at this moment. And if I could talk to myself aloud right now, I would have said, "Shut the fuck up! This is a serious situation. I'm supposed to be mad at him, not admiring how hot he is.... Even though he is freaking gorgeous."But my subconscious was even more stubborn than I was. It continued...Seriously, it was like Eric descended from the heavens on a cloud of charisma and mischief. If being drop-dead gorgeo
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 48: Do I Love Him?
Sapphire's POV"Tell me, tigress, are you falling in love with me?"Eric's question echoed in my mind and resounded in my ear, swirling through the chaotic of conflicting emotions inside of me. It hung between us like an unanswered riddle. All I did was stand there, frozen, and staring deeply at him. I had been caught off guard by his question. This man always had a way of catching me off guard and leaving me tongue-tied. It felt as though time itself had taken a long pause, waiting for my answer as much as Eric was right now.The party noises faded into the background as I stood facing Eric, lost in contemplation. Eric's eyes bored into mine, in search of his answer perhaps, and for a while, I found myself grappling with the uncertainty of my own emotions.Did I love Eric? Was I really falling in love with him?These questions sent my emotions twirling in every single direction. Well, the idea of falling in love with him sounded extremely ludicrous in my head, especially considering
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 49: Cold Feet
Sapphire's POVToday is the day...I gazed into the full-length mirror, my eyes flickering and my delicate hands running down the fabric of my strapless white mermaid dress. I stared for a long time at my reflection as I trailed my fingers all over it. The fabric was a smooth, shimmering, sleek satin with intricate lace detailing and the tiny seed pearls that dotted it.It flowed down perfectly in a long train behind me. And my hair was held up in a proud, regal afro bun, with a tiara blinged out in tiny diamond stones. I sighed, my reflection staring back with a hint of resignation.I was finally getting married."Must be nice," I muttered to my reflection, my voice laced with bitterness and uncertainty. The thought of marrying a billionaire had its perks, yet here I was, standing and musing about it.I hadn't seen or spoken to Eric since his grandfather's birthday party a few days ago. He had sent me my wedding dress and everything else I needed for the wedding down to the bridal bo
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 50: Wedding Bells
Sapphire's POVI adjusted my tiara and picked up my bouquet from the floor. With a final glance at the mirror, I straightened my shoulders, putting on a smile that didn't reach my eyes.Eric's bodyguard drove me, Jamila, Gwen and Ruby to the venue. My wedding was held in a garden at a beautiful scenic estate, with flowers in full bloom, lush greenery and a stunning view of the mountains in the distance. This was the first time I was here so I admired the view from every corner. Eric left no stone unturned in making sure this wedding was as magical as he'd said it would be.This was it. Today, I will finally become Mrs Sapphire Donovan.While I stepped out of the car, my nervousness shot all the way up and I clutched my bouquet hard. We made our way to the ceremony and as I walked down the aisle, my eyes danced over the guests. There were only a few of them, gathered under a canopy of fairy lights, with the sun dipping below the horizon. Eric's grandfather and his wife were here, Ruby'
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 51: I Do, I Don't, I Did
Sapphire's POVI glared at the intruder, sashaying her way down the aisle with a plastic smile on her slightly made-up face. She had a smug look on, her shoulders were held up high and her heels were even higher. Her heels added more height to her already tall stature that if she stretched just a little, she could reach for the clouds. Her eyes were hidden underneath a pair of dark sunglasses and her emerald dress did justice to her beautiful skin.This woman sure knows how to make an appearance. I guess being dramatic is a family trait for the Donovans. How did she even get in here? Who let her in?"How could you all even think of proceeding with this wedding when the groom's mother was yet to grace it with her awe-inspiring presence?" Eric's mother said, a small smile parting her lips.The whole place was utterly silent and all eyes were on her. She seemed to be feeding on it. It was easy to tell that just like her son, she loved and lived for the attention and drama, of course. Her
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 52: Forced Honeymoon
Sapphire's POV"No way! I'm not going on a honeymoon with you," I stated in a stern voice and folded my arms, staring dead into Eric's piercing eyes. "Absolutely not."Eric stared back at me, hard and cold and then shoved his hands in the pockets of his pants. "What did you just say?" His voice was smooth but very far from warm and there seemed to be something about his expression which I couldn't point out."You heard me," I said. "I'm not going on that honeymoon trip with you, Eric. I've changed my mind."He looked away briefly and then let out a heavy sigh. "Oh, I wasn't asking for your permission actually. I was only informing you," he declared, looking at me once again."And what the hell is that supposed to mean?" I eyed him, my eyes running up and down the luggages he'd made one of his maids to pack for us both.Eric and I had gotten home only a while ago after the hell of a long wedding reception that followed. Oh, it was eventful all right, we signed the contract and went thr
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 53: Honeymoon Hues In Malibu
Sapphire's POVEric and I arrived at Malibu, California after a 7-hour long flight in his private jet. By the time we got here, it was almost 5:30am. I was exhausted during our flight, fatigue clung to me like a stubborn shadow that I had no idea how or when I had dozed off. I was surprised to wake up in Eric's arms and he refused to let me go. He carried me all the way to our ride and sat with me in the backseat while a chauffeur drove us to our destination.The ride there was silent and I peered through the window of the car, taking in the view of the city. The last time I was here in Los Angeles, I was barely 8 and I remembered coming with my mum but the reason, I had long forgotten.It wasn't very bright outside yet I didn't tear my gaze from the view. It was a lot better staring out the window than having to just sit awkwardly and making sure I avoided Eric's eyes – which I was doing, of course.However, I glanced at him for a moment but I wasn't expecting to find his eyes fixed
