SOPHIA
“I told you to get up and let me take you away from here but you claimed to be so stubborn. Keep quiet,” His voice firm as he struts towards the door.
He walked with me over his shoulder to a black GLC 300 SUV and pulled the back door open. He dropped me recklessly, “Now don't be so vicious, you had only alcohol and you are behaving like this? what could have become of you if you took the drink that guy gave to you.” As he bent over me to buckle my seat belt, I pushed him away, “Leave me alone.”
He glared at me, “Silly, Don't push me, and don't push your Savior.” He finally buckled my belt and closed the door.
“Andy, Drive.”
The driver nodded subserviently, “Yes Sir.” As he moved the car.
He broke the calm atmosphere in the Car “Where is your house?”
I'm not telling him I don't know him, what if he is a bad guy? And who knows if he has succeeded in kidnapping me?
I made him look at me as I pulled him by the collar, I looked into his eyes, “I'm not telling you, Go to hell!” I shouted.
He looked at me in disbelief and shook his head, his face nonchalant, “Alcohol is not for feeble people like you.” He observed my hand holding his collar as he glared at me, “Let go,” His voice was low yet deep.
He adjusted his collar, “Since, you are this stubborn, not telling me where you live, you left me with no choice but to take you to my house.” His face stared into the space nonchalantly.
I smiled at him as I pinched his cheek, “ You must be a Joker.” I chuckled.
“Ouch! you wench” He grimaced in pain, as he scowled at me in disbelief, shook his head slowly then looked through the window.
He opened the door and unbuckled my belt, “ Get down,” He stood waiting for me to come down from the car but instead, I lounged in the car as I narrowed my eyes on him.
He abruptly carried me up in bridal style this time, I didn't make any drama as I felt warm in his strong arms, I slowly curled my hands around his neck looking at him with my eyes slightly closed.
“Stop looking at me, Silly.” He said without looking at my face.
How did he know I was looking at him when he did not even look at me for once since he scooped me?
My back landed on a soft bed, “Sleep here, tomorrow you will leave for your place.”
But to his surprise, I held my hands around his neck firmly.
I frowned, “Don't go,” I drawled making puppy eyes.
The looks on his face became more austere, as he scanned my face
I stared at him confidently, with him still, bent over me, “Don't you wanna fuck?” I uttered.
“Miss—”
I interjected him before he could finish saying what he intended saying, as I leaped from the bed holding onto his collar firmly and I placed my lips on his as my lips moved quickly over his in dominance
Startled by my sudden actions, “Miss, are you sure you want to do this?”
++++
I woke up just to see a man sleeping beside me,
“Oh My God!” I screamed as I jumped down from the bed pulling the duvet with me which covered my nakedness. My sight quickly fell on my hipster panties on the edge of the bed followed by my bra and con gown on the floor
“Hey, don't shout, the morning is still young,” as he closed his eyes and lay back to sleep.
My chest started to heave, rising and falling slowly and I struggled for a breath. My mouth trembles and my head gets heavy. No… I can't believe this. I staggered backward leaning on the wall for support.
“What did you do?” I yelled as my eyes blurred with tears.
He quickly sat up, looking at me confusingly, “You made the move on me.”
But I was drunk.
With a shivery voice, “How did I even end up here?”
“ I met you at the Bar last night. You were with some bad guys and I saved you. I asked you where you lived but you didn't tell me so I decided to carry you to my house so you could spend the night and leave this morning.” He cleared his throat, “ That is how you ended up here, Miss” as he gave a smirky smile.
Son of a Bit….
He got down from the bed, heading straight into the bathroom.
What have I done to myself? My heart sank as I replayed what happened, Heck! I made the move on him, I vividly remembered how I pulled him on the collar and kissed him. I'm doomed.
From Dad telling me to marry a man I don't know to Jimmy cheating on me now, I have made love to a stranger I don't know as a cause of trying to deal with my predicaments.
He dropped a red dress on the bed as I sat on the bed with my head resting on my knees, “Wear this after you have freshened up, come have breakfast.” He said calmly tucking his hands in his pockets, he exited the room with his face lit up with smiles.
I don't have time for anything breakfast. I have to get away from here as soon as possible.
+++++
I got home and I slowly opened the door making sure my sight was clear before I went in.
Oh yes! Dad is not in the sitting room, I slowly removed my shoes from my legs and held them in my hands as I snuck into the room.
“Where are you coming from, Sophie?”
I froze immediately, hearing Dad's voice with my hand holding the barricade as I ascended the stairs. I slowly turned around just to see Dad standing in the center of the sitting room with his hands crossed over his chest, with the look on his face, he wasn't budging.
Several lumps went down my gullet as I scanned through my head to have something reasonable to say.
G-Good Morni— uhhg..” I stood fidgeting nervously in my stance.
“I went to Look for a way out Dad,” I said quickly in one breath.
He shook his head in reprimand, “Damian come here yesterday after you left. He wanted to see you before you are officially married but you decided to leave without telling me your whereabouts. I had to plead with him that you would be back any moment soon. He told me he sensed I was hiding something and you should better not run away.”
Dad took a sit on the couch as I stood silently looking at his wor
ried self.
“The wedding is tomorrow, Be prepared Sophie” Breaking the silence in the room
My eyes widened “What! But Dad that is too fast?”
SOPHIA I stood with the veil covering my face as sweat trickled down my face,“I don't think I can do this.”My Dad who stood beside me held my hand as we moved to the sofa in the room I got dressed to proceed to the church“You can, my daughter.”I looked at my Dad intently with emotions all over my face as I heaved a sigh of relief placing my hands on my chest, “ I have made up my mind to do this but I'm so scared, Dad.”“Just do this for our sake, For the sake of your aging father, please Sophia don't mess this up it's our only hope,” Dad said sorrowfully, his brows creased as his eyes brimmed with tears he couldn't help but let it shimmer down his cheek. He is truly doing this because he has no other option and I have to make things right by marrying Damian whom I will get to know on the Altar as the priest declares us Husband and Wife I looked at Dad as I held his hand tightly in my arms and I didn't know when my sight was blurry with tears. Seeing my Dad cry, He is so emotion
SOPHIA My sight first caught on the big and wide bed neatly dressed with white bedsheets and four pillows at the head of it, My lips opened in Wow, Honestly, this place is amazing, the whole bedroom is white, everything from the curtains on the windows to the floor, the couch, the wardrobe and the chandelier also shimmering with pure brightness.The atmosphere can make one feel so relaxed and if they should be worried and perplexed this room will chill them off. I slowly turned and looked at Damian whose intense eyes were already fixed on me with his arms akimbo as I silently inspected his whole bedroom just with my eyes. I stared at him with unease lingering in my heart which came as a result of the effect his sight had on me, “Your Bedroom is lovely,” I said quickly as I slightly nodded my head and let a gulp down my throat but he just winked at me, “You are welcome,” as he sat on the bed removing his jacket suit from his body. I cleared my throat as he looked at me in response,
SOPHIA I observed the proximity between us as the gap was not up to an inch. I took a few steps backward but at every step I took backward he took a step forward, every step he took seemed like a time bomb ticking as my heart hit hard against my chest. I halted when my back touched the wall and I couldn't move any longer.My face austere, “S-Stay a-away,” I stuttered. But he seems unfazed as a smile hits the edges of his lips. “You are my wife, just get that clear. You are now-” He halts as he gets closer to me again, locking his gaze on me, “Miss Kingsley.” His hardened face splashed with smiles again. “So I ask again, don't you want to talk about that night? We met at the bar and came back home together?”“There is nothing to talk about, Mr. Damian.” I managed to say as he sneered. His brows furrowed, “Really?” “Yeah.” As I managed to step aside so I could get away from him, He suddenly reached out his hand and placed it on the wall firmly preventing me from walking away. I mo
SOPHIA I sat on the couch as I am binge-watching reels on my IG before I will later go to sleep, the door opened and I cocked my head just to see Damian saunter in. My sight fixed on him as he walked straight to the bed and let himself fall carelessly on the bed. He must be so stressed out. Since he is indoors right now with me this watching of reel stuff is on hold for now. “Come to bed when you are done.”I glanced at him nonchalantly just to see him sitting up as he yawned, covering his hand on his wide-open mouth. “I'm sleeping on the couch,” I said in a stern voice. He narrowed his gaze at me,"Okay, since you say so, I respect your decision,” He said with no emotion on his fine face. He reached out his hand to me with a quilt in his hand which he pulled from the bed, “How about this?” I gave him a ‘what is it for’ kind of look wondering why he would take away the quilt he has on the bed and hand it over to me. I frowned, are you for real. ?His voice firm, “Miss Kingsley I
SOPHIA I saw an elegant woman between the ages of 30 - 35 years old with an illuminated face, “Good morning, Madam,” her voice was mellifluous. I wasn't expecting anyone to be here and hearing the door creak stunned me. I forced a smiled at her, “Good morning. How are you?”“I'm fine madam.” She blushed, “Hope you had a wonderful night?” I nodded, “Yea, my sleep was splendid.” Packing my unkempt hair away from my face. “My name is Selena, I'm Mr. Damian’s cook. I must say you are a very beautiful Madam and lucky since I have started working in this house I haven't seen him bring any lady home. You must be very different. You are welcome Ma.”Hearing her say Mr. Cold hadn't brought a woman home since she started working with him chilled my soul and I couldn't help but blush foolishly, “Awnnnnn” “My name is Sophia Davies, so you can just call me Sophia.”I was so wrong in taking him to be some kind of Christian Grey Billionaire. I never intended to sleep on this bed at first thi
DAMIAN Since Melissa left me when she told me she was going to take care of her sick grandmother, I thought she would never leave but she did. She told me over the phone after her Grandma gets well she will be back to be with me but it was never so. After a week she left, and her line was not connecting, I tried as much as I could to be in talks with her but all yielded fruitless results. Aff! After a while, I was at work but the thought of her couldn't let me be myself, luckily for me, I received a call from her, my cherished one Melissa and I could hear her sweet voice again at last, telling me she lost her Grandma. I said I would come over for the funeral to be by her side but she told me she was right at the funeral as she called me. For goodness sake, I can't just wake up and start going for a long trip to Texas abruptly so I just let it be. I tried to inquire why her phone number wasn't reachable, all she told me was pain in my heart and I could feel her pain. It's not easy t
SOPHIA I sat in the back seat as the Man who brought the package Damian sent to me was driving. I have been lonely and bored with the awkward silence in the car. I decided to keep myself busy by taking some selfies in the car. I swayed from the seat as he took a sharp turn and stopped almost immediately as the brakes screeched. Oh, I didn't buckle the seat belt and it never crossed my mind to.“What's the matter?” I asked impatiently, staring at him. He tilted his head towards me, “Sorry, Madam I have to pick up this Call from my boss. We will be off soon.” Okay, fine.There is nothing about him stopping, just that the turn he took was too nasty and my phone almost fell. “You can go ahead,” I said calmly. ‘Even if you don't tell him to go ahead he has to answer his call, Baby’ something in me uttered. It's beginning to piss me off as it's always getting on my nerves.I know, Baby.“Hello, Sir.”“Hello, Arthur, are you there?” Damian's low-pitched voice came through. “We are on o
CHAPTER 12 DAMIANWe stepped out of the Lift as I gave her my hand she held onto it and a feeling of relaxation rained over me as our hands intertwined. I looked into those pairs of brown glittering eyes. I could tell they were feeling special and that feeling alone gladden my heart. Sophia suddenly stopped in her tracks, and I gave her a confused look wondering why she suddenly stopped. She heaved a deep sigh as she gazed at me, “Damian, thank you for everything you have done.” As she flicked her eyes at my face, her demeanor was explicitly calm. Finally, we are getting there like I said earlier, one step at a time. She will easily give in. I knew it, she would like the gift I sent Arthur to deliver to her. I can't imagine how happy she was when she got the gifts. And I must say she looks hot. Looking at her alone arouses the desire to grab her and start kissing her impatiently.“What for? I asked, pretending I didn't what she was talking about as I stared at her nonchalantly. “T
