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
SebastianI don't feel well.The lights in the ballroom suddenly feel too bright, and people sound too noisy. I need to go back to my room and lie down.I look for Delilah and see her dancing with the district managers of one of the hotels. She looked like she was having a lot of fun, so I didn't feel like taking her with me.I tortured her enough these past few weeks, so I should give her a break this time. I head to the elevator alone.Lucia barged inside the elevator before the door closed, and I frowned. What does she want this time?I met Lucia ten years ago when I visited Italy for the first time. We had an instant connection.I thought she was gorgeous, and she was smitten by my good looks and charms. We started to maintain a long-distance relationship, with me visiting at least twice a month. After three years, I finally proposed, and she agreed instantly. I thought I had found the one.But then her true color showed. She started to take advantage of me. She used her fiancée s
DelilahI don't know what I am doing or why I am doing it.No...that's not true. I do know why. Seeing him lying there half-dressed made me feel antsy and overwhelmed with lust. The thought of him being inside of another woman made my blood boil.I straddle him. My hair falls all over his face as I look down at him."Kiss me," he said.No. I won't give him the satisfaction. If I kiss him now, it would feel too much like love, and I don't want him to feel loved. I want him to feel used."You don't get to kiss me until I'm satisfied," I said in a raspy voice."As you wish," he smirked.I lower myself more and lightly bite his shoulder, then kiss his chest instead of his lips."Your lips feel so good, fuck...I love them so much," Sebastian groans as I trail them down from his chest and stop right on top of his pelvic bone. I touch his hard erection and stroke it slowly. Then I lick it from the base to the tip then put it in my mouth.He moans and puts his fingers through my hair as I suc
Sebastian"What is the meaning of this?" I roar.Simon doesn't even flinch as he is used to my occasional outbursts."You said it was a done deal. How did they know about Steve Rogers?" I asked again. It's been only a day since I got back from my trip, and things were already stressful for me."I believe it has something to do with the rat. He spilled the beans about the interview date, and the other hotel reached out to him. We need to do something about it, and we need to do it soon," Simon said.I lean back and close my eyes while Simon patiently waits for me to say something."I've got an idea," I said all of a sudden. Simon looked at me but didn't say anything. He waited for me to elaborate."We will create a fake project. Something that would benefit both us and Crestwood Hotel. We can gradually plant information little by little and keep watch to see if they find out. We keep an eye on everyone and see who shows unnecessary interest," I said."Not bad. I am on board," Simon sai
DelilahI watch Sebastian storm out. Then I get back to work. I am done being swayed and doing all of his bidding like a puppet. I may be poor and weak at times, but I didn't lose all my self-respect yet. I won't surrender to Sebastian, no matter what.But still...I have to admit something. Sebastian treated me like a princess for the rest of our trip to Italy. He took me shopping and allowed me to pick anywhere I wanted to visit, and I forgot about all the torture he put me through momentarily.But once the day was over, I sat alone in my room and thought about everything. Sebastian isn't a nice guy. He is evil under that handsome face of his. He made me feel worthless numerous times before, and he will do it again.And the whole blackmail scene with the video of me. What kind of despicable man does something like this to a poor, helpless woman who has nowhere to turn to?Sebastian had proven to me that he was that kind of man numerous times.I can never love him, and I won't. I deci
