Simon I knew where to find Olivia and decided to show up there. It is Saturday, so I knew Olivia would be at one of the most popular and high-scale clubs called 'The Club Medusa' downtown, dancing the night away. I knew she loved to dance, so it was the perfect opportunity to sweep her off her feet since I was not a bad dancer myself. I put on some jeans and a black button-up shirt, then headed to Club Medusa. I didn't have a hard time getting in since all I had to do was to wave a five hundred dollar bill in front of the bouncer. Soon, I was inside. I scanned the entire floor. It is a habit I developed while being trained by my brilliant yet mysterious boss Ares. I spot Olivia dancing right in the middle of the dance floor. My left eyebrow rises a fraction when I see a tall and skinny guy approaching her and asking her to dance. She looks at him for a few moments, then nods in agreement. Then they start dancing. Jealousy wells up inside me as I see her swaying her hips near an
DelilahI don't know why I care, but my feelings about the trip immediately changed once Simon mentioned it was Sebastian's birthday. Maybe it is wishful thinking, but I want to believe that he wanted my company that day, and it makes me feel good. Maybe Sebastian still has feelings for me.But how do I feel about him? I wondered. I know I can't hate him no matter how hard I try, and my heart beats furiously when I am near him. And I have the strangest desire to be near him at all times.Maybe I have feelings for him. Perhaps I fell in love with him without even realizing it. And his being rich has nothing to do with it. I want the old Sebastian back. He might've been cheap and clumsy, but he was sweet. I'd rather have him than all the money in the world.I sighed and decided to stop fighting him about the trip. In fact, I am starting to look forward to it. I need to figure out what to give him as a birthday present. What do you give a man who could get everything he ever wanted? Simo
Sebastian I look at Delilah, who is leaning back on the seat with her eyes closed. She hadn't opened her eyes since the captain announced our departure. She must be afraid of flying, I thought and smirked. She'll have to get used to it since there will be a lot more of those in the future. "Hey, Delilah, why don't you open your eyes and look at the view down below?" I tap her on the shoulder. "N...no thank you," Delilah mumbled. I signal the flight attendant to come closer. "What can I get you, Mr. Stanley?" "Get Miss Gibson something to drink. Something strong. Thanks, Kate," I ordered. Delilah's eyes snapped open. "That's not necessary. I don't drink much," she said quickly and sat up. I look at her hands. They are shaking. I soften my gaze as I realize she is scared. Maybe I shouldn't have forced her to take this trip. I was being selfish. Nah, I shouldn't feel bad. I have always spent my birthdays alone, as I never had the desire to do with anyone. My brother and I are c
Sebastian I stare at the sleeping Delilah and release a sigh. I can't seem to understand this woman. Why doesn't she refuse me when I act so beastly toward her? If she would just shove me off and slap me senselessly, I would back off and never touch her again. Is she scared of him because of the contract? Did she take all my empty threats seriously? But it isn't like the contract stated she is obligated to have a sexual relationship with me. Did she not read the agreement? Maybe she is just weak. Or maybe she has feelings for me despite how I treated her like some kind of masochist. Nothing made sense to me. I tried not to feel guilty about forcing her to go down on me earlier, but my heart felt heavy. I went too far earlier, and it wasn't in my nature to do something like that. I am turning into a monster as the day goes by, and I am not sure how to tame it anymore. I secretly hoped Delilah would resist more and put me in my place. Delilah is lying on the bed naked and flat on he
Delilah I slam the door shut and then faceplant on the bed. I am sore all over. Even my throat feels achy, thanks to that jerk. I wasn't used to rough sex, as Ryan and I never got to that point. My ex was gentle in bed, not an animal like Sebastian. But it isn't like I completely hated it. But I could go without the feeling of humiliation when he shoved his dick in my mouth and forced me to taste his cum. The memory made me feel sick and flustered again. I will probably never forget it or ever forgive him. He was acting like a monster. I can't imagine what other things he has in store for me. I can't even escape from him as I am now stuck in another county, but at least he allowed me to sleep in a separate room. He can be oddly considerate for someone so evil. I decided to take his advice and take a nice, long bath. I take my clothes off, then put on a robe before stepping inside the bathroom. The bathroom is big and luxurious, just like my hotel room. It has a rather large jac
SebastianI try not to laugh out loud as I look at Delilah's face when I tell her the big news. Her face turned as white as a sheet of paper. No, not white. She looks almost grey."What the fuck!" she exclaimed. "I mean...what the fuck?" she repeated her sentence in the form of a question this time."You heard me. I am proposing. Will you marry me, Delilah Anne Gibson?" I take out a small box from Tiffany's."Absolutely not! Are you completely out of your mind, you crazy motherfucker?" Delilah cried."As my future wife, you really need to watch that filthy mouth of yours," I grinned."You're delusional! I would never marry you. Not in a million or billion years," she shook her head.I expected some resistance from her, but I wonder if she'll still say no when she sees the ring. I open the box and hold it in front of her. "Not even if I give you this diamond ring that's worth more than your parents' house?" I grinned.Delilah stared at the gorgeous oval-cut stone that sat comfortably b
DelilahI look at the ring on my finger. It weighed on top of my finger like a ton of bricks. I choke back my tears and stare at him. I don't have a choice. I have to do everything he asked, endure every pain he gives me with a smile. I have to do it to protect my family from the embarrassment I will bring with this damned video."Fine, you win. I will marry you. But know one thing, I won't forgive you for this," I sniffled."Once you taste the wealthy lifestyle, you will forget all about your grudge. All women are similar that way, and you are no different," he hissed."You are wrong. But I won't argue with you. Please just erase the video. I will do anything you ask, I promise," I sob into my hand."I will keep this until we sign another contract. The marriage license one," Sebastian laughs out loud.I feel a shiver running down my spine. I thought he had a cruelty streak before, but this is a whole new level.I go back into my hotel room and then sob into the pillow.I feel like a
"Sebastian! I didn't know you came back here?" Lucia's face brightened."You two know each other?" I asked, even though it was evident that these two had a history."Lucia is Frederick's daughter. He is the manager at this hotel," Sebastian explains."We almost got married," Lucia declared.My brows rose together. "Who almost got married?""Sebastian and I, silly. We were in love," she chirped.I didn't know to process all this information. Lucia and Sebastian? In love? I felt a small amount of jealousy flickering inside me, but I forced myself to keep my face straight. I didn't know what to say for a moment. "Is that so?" I finally managed to say something."It's not true. At least not the full truth. Lucia and I almost got married, but we weren't in love," Sebastian said grimly and grabbed my hand."No need to hide it from Delilah. She is going to be your new wife, no? It would be best if you told her all of your secrets," Lucia giggled."I think Delilah and I will go dance for a bi
