A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 96
We found a parking spot and I picked up the basket shutting the car door.“This is your great place? The crowded beach?” William asks.“Yup, and compared to the one in Miami, it’s not that crowded,” I state, walking with the basket in hand. A few people were on the beach, some playing while others were lying down enjoying the sunny serenity that the beach brought. I led us closer to the water before taking my seat on the dry sand. I turned to William who was still standing looking down at me.“You can’t be serious.”“What?” I ask craning my head to look up at him.“You did make me drive all the way just to sit and eat on the sand, that is so unsanitary.”“Common, don’t be such a princess, sit down,” I say, patting the spot beside me.“No, heaven knows the kinds of atrocities done on that sand.”“Atrocities really? Didn't you ever play with sand while growing up, in the playground or even at the beach?”“No.”“What! You’re joking.” I say biting my lips to stop myself from laughing. “Pl
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 97
We spent a couple more hours at the beach talking about the most random stuff and I got to admit it felt nice seeing William like that, so carefree and relaxed. I was scared that Rome might end up being a forgotten memory by the time we got back, I was scared that William was going to go back to his usual way of ignoring me. I didn’t want the friendship we had now to be flushed down the drain. I just hope he doesn’t go back to being as mean as he was before we came here to Rome.We got back late at night, William had called for his driver to pick us up from the beach since he was a bit drunk and I was much worse. I wouldn’t have even accepted to get into the car if he wanted to drive. For someone who wanted to tour the whole of Rome, I couldn’t do that the next day due to the hangover I woke up with. I spent the day in the suite sleeping and cuddling with my pink teddy bear. “Goodbye sir, please ensure you visit soon,” Alfredo says to William as we walk out of the elevator.“Don't sa

While yawning, I stretch my body and turn to look at the clock on the wall. It was still pretty early and I was surprised I was awake at this time since I got back late yesterday. I turned, sprawling myself comfortably, and rested my head on the pillow facing the empty side of the bed where William usually slept.As if on cue, William walked out of his closet dressed for work, looking sharp. Is this man a robot? Only he would be up so early after getting off a nine-hour flight the day before.“Good morning.” He says, sparing a glance at me as he picks his phone up from his bedside table.Did William just greet me in the morning? I guess something did change.“Morning,” I mumble in my sleepy state, my eyes still half closed. “Enjoy your day at the office.” I wasn’t sure if he heard me or if he even replied cause the next thing, I was out like a light.I woke up a couple of hours later. I know William said I could move some of my things to his room and maybe use his bathroom too but I
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 99
Mathew wasn’t home anymore, he had gone out to hang with some of his friends so I was here all by myself. Agatha kept me company before she had to leave since she was done with her shift while Mario hadn’t come, But Agatha informed me he would be coming later to make lunch since he couldn’t make breakfast today.Since the weather was nice and warm today, I decided to take a swim and spend my time in the pool area, basking under the sun’s warm glow. I strolled into my closet, going through the bikinis Hazel had picked out for my closet. Speaking of Hazel, I hadn’t seen her in a while and I have to admit she had a very nice taste when it came to clothes judging from the outfits in the closet.I settled on a light blue and white two-piece bikini and a matching kimono cover-up, I picked up my phone and made my way over to the kitchen to get some snacks, a fruit, and a drink for myself before walking off to the pool area. I settled the tray on the table beside me and laid down on the loun

After having lunch I took the dishes to the kitchen and cleaned them, returning to an empty dining room.Where did he go? I made my way to his room and it was empty too. I sighed before making my way to his home study. I placed a knock on the door and pushed the door open when I heard him say come in from the other end.I met his eyes as I walked into the room closing the door behind me. This was actually my first time coming into his study, it was usually off-limits.“I knew it! I knew this was too good to be true.” I say folding my arms.“What was?”“You coming back home earlier than usual. I should have known you’d still come here to work.” He merely nods at me as he darts back at his laptop’s screen. “You work too much and you should be resting, whatever you’re working on can wait till tomorrow when you’re at the office. Do something else, do something fun.” I suggested but William didn’t look away from his laptop’s screen but I know he heard me.I looked away walking around the

Saturdays are meant for sleeping in yet William Atlas Armani was fully awake, his movements around the room were disturbing my beautiful sleep. What was he even looking for? He was dressed in a male tank top and black basketball shorts with his sneakers laced.This has become a Saturday ritual for him every morning, I don’t even know how I didn’t notice it at first maybe because he didn’t usually make this amount of noise before.I wonder why one would decide to go out to exercise so early on a Saturday morning. Like why? Why would you get up so early at five a.m. when the sun isn’t even up yet to jog and exercise at the gymI frowned in my sleepy state watching him rummage around the room with my half-closed lids. He finally finds whatever he is looking for and exits the room, shutting the door behind him.Finally, peace.I sigh, snuggling deeper into bed and dozing off momentarily. I woke up four hours later and yawned, getting up from the bed. I walked to his bathroom since he said

After breakfast, he went to his room first. He had thirty minutes before meeting me in the living room. I cleared my used plate and spent the next few minutes heating popcorn to munch on while watching the movie, getting a duvet for myself.Just as he said he would, William walked through the living room door exactly thirty minutes later, he walked up to the TV, switched it on, and selected a movie. He turned and made his way to the couch where I sat, settling down in the seat beside me.“What movie did you put on?” I ask seeing as he blocked my vision earlier when he was selecting a movie.“You’ll see it when it starts,” he responds with a mischievous look in his eyes.“Okay,” I say, dragging the word as I glance at him suspiciously. As the movie intro began, I knew immediately that I wasn’t going to like the movie at all.“Are you scared?” William asks, he wasn’t asking because he cared, he was asking just to spite me and I knew that with the amusement swirling in his eyes. Was this
A PACT TO LOVE CHAPTER 103
William’s p.o.vI walked out of the living room and made my way to my home study, my mind still spinning from what had just occurred. What just happened in there? I can’t believe I almost kissed her, what the hell was I thinking? As I sat on my desk, I opened my laptop and tried working but it seemed useless as the memory lingered in my head and I could still feel her holding onto my arm as I got lost staring into her coffee-brown eyes, her shoulder-length hair cascading freely on her shoulders. Has she always been this beautiful?A fucking coward I had become.I spent the rest of the day in my study, only coming out late at night when I knew for a fact that she had already gone to bed.I know it was silly of me to go out of my way just to avoid her but what else was I supposed to do? I wasn’t used to feeling this way, feelings are weak and they would only make you think stupid and act weak. And I am not a weak man!Bailey felt like an annoying rash that I couldn’t get rid of no matte
