SAMANTHA'S POV"Lady Gracie?" I stood up from the bed, rushing to open the door for her. I don't know why, but since the very moment I met Lady Gracie, I adored her. I felt safe all because of her. "Thank goodness you came, Lady Gracie." I said, shutting the door after her."I heard what happened." She said, looking at me. "Did Leo send you to talk to me?" She didn't say a word to my question, and I knew that the bastard had sent her."Can we talk?""Sure." I nodded my head, gesturing to her to sit on my bed. "What do you wanna talk to me about?" I asked inquisitively."It's about Mr Darkwood." She replied."Come one, Lady Gracie, I'm sick and tired of listening to stories about him. Leo isn't as good as you all talk, he's a Devil in disguise. Look, I wanna believe every single thing you guys say, but the more I try to, the more he gives me reasons to hate him.""What happened?""He trashed my painting. I was hoping he'd return and feel happy to see my work on his wall, rather he took
We began eating, the dinner was a quiet one. A quiet and an uncomfortable one. I wish I'd one day get used to all these. He won't stop staring at me, and my body won't stop embarrassing me. I would take a slice of the pancakes into my mouth and have it crunched for ten minutes.I was getting damn uncomfortable with that!!"Don't you think this dinner will be so boring if you keep staring at me that way?" I asked, breaking the silence.He said nothing but smirked.I think I felt that…"When I get addicted to some one, I find it quite impossible to take my eyes off her.""Wow," I was lost of words and... that's just it. I'm speechless.His smirk was becoming obvious each second he scoffs a smile. In case he doesn't know, he's so fucking killing me right now that I can't even... breath. I shyly looked away from his gaze, saying. " You know, I still suggest you shouldn't be giving me that stare, I'm still not adapted to it yet. " He started laughing, his smile reached from ear to ear an
Camila bursted out laughing. Her voice was so loud that I couldn't hold the phone to my ear. I pulled it out of my ear until I was sure she had stopped laughing. "What, Cam?""You think Mr Darkwood loves you?" She repeated, finding it funny. "Well, I suggest you should be happy already and not complaining like a kid.""I'm not complaining like a kid, Camila, he's just not open to me yet. He sees me like I am a nobody. Maybe pretending not to like him is the best way to solve the problem.""Come on, Sam, if you do that what do you expect from him? He's gonna think you don't love him, and some how wasting his love for you won't be the best choice for him. I think it's time you two give up the act already and understand your fate." Now she was being serious about the conversation.I'm trying to understand him, but it's not my fault if I don't totally trust him. He's a guy, and men are really good at breaking hearts. I might end up falling so deeply in love with him and get hurt at the en
WRITER POVNoticing how long they have been staring at each other, Leonard cleared his throat, interrupting them. "So… Sam, Jordan is here to talk about your artworks.""Wow!" She gasped in excitement. "Guess, Leo must have told you about me." "Yes, he has. He also said, you do have great potential."Samantha was finding it hard to believe Jordan's words. She looked at Leo who only rolled his eyes the moment Jordan spat the words. "He did?" She intentionally asked, sounding like she did believe it. "Wow, Leo has never said that to me.""He won't, but he does compliment you at work. Can I get a sample of your previous work?" He requested."Sure." Sam left to Leonard's room to get the painting from his wardrobe. Leonard was surprised to see her holding the painting he had seized from her.He couldn't say any thing since Jordan was around, he pretended not to care. Sam gave the drawing to Jordan who gave it a long look. He was slowly nodding his head, while Sam on the other hand silentl
SAMANTHA'S POVI was so happy to see Leonard express how jealous he is to see Jordan and I talk happily. I can't believe he'd get this angry with it. I mean, I thought he doesn't fancy me, why would he care about how I looked at Jordan.I left the bed, walking towards the mirror to stare at myself. "I can't wait for morning to come already, and… I can't wait to call Jordan." I said, intentionally hurting Leonard.From the mirror, I saw him standing behind me. I hid how startled I was, how the fuck did he do that? I mentally asked myself as I maintained the stare."You know, you shouldn't be bothered about this whole thing. I thought you don't fancy me, of course you don't. All you care about is the certificate, that's all.""I have the right to tell you to stay back." He fumed.I turned to look at me, "Of course, you don't." I stood up, "You're not saying that, Leonard.""I can't have you going there just for his sake.""Why would you say that?""Because I am your mate!" He grabbed my
I was keeping to my time to show up at the art audition just at the exact time Jordan said. I was intending to go alone since Leonard decided not to go out with me. With Abigail's help, I wore the best makeup ever.I asked Abigail to call Denver to take me to the audition. Just when Denver showed up, I saw Leonard walking out from the corridor, dressed in his black suit. "I thought you weren't coming." I said to him,"I changed my mind." He simply said."Why?" I asked."I just decided to change my mind. Or you don't want me coming?""Whatever." I rolled my eyes at him. "We've got to get going before the time."I turned to leave, then I heard him call my name. "Sam."I stopped, turning to look at him. I watched him approach me. He raised his hand to my face, and with his thumb, he cleaned off some thing beside my lips. I noticed the way he was staring at my lips while doing that. I'll admit the fact that my mate is damn so handsome, and every thing about him is just so perfect. His tou
"The second contestant goes to S…" My heart just entered a triple fast motion of beating. I think I just heard the letter ‘S’ sound from his lips before the microphone went faulty. I was hoping he was going to call my name, but on the other hand, my brain began to list numerous names with the letter S.The microphone started and the announcer had to start his statement from the fresh, causing me more nervous than I already am. "The second contestant goes to Selena Don."I can't breathe. No, I can't breathe.I was choked up, hearing as the two ladies jubilated in happiness, while the rest of us whose names haven't been mentioned are left to hope or to lose hope."It's not too late to prove to the world who you are." Jordan's voice sounded in my ear. I know it's never too late, but right at this moment, I wanted this chance, I wanted this opportunity. I want to prove to Leonard that there is more to me than just a painter. I also want to make him proud of me. Maybe he's acting less conc
He jerked her into his arms, spreading her legs around his waist. The intensity of their kiss was increasing every second, like none wants to break free. It was an intimate one that told how much they loved each other at the moment, and Sam's heart was beating so fast, praying he wouldn't break free from the kiss or end the fun halfway.Not only winning in the audition, this was another moment she has desperately been waiting for. To have herself in his arms, his kiss in hers, his arms around her tender waist. All she wants is for him to have her at the moment. Even if it wasn't for eternity, she wanted him for this very moment.Leonard carried her up to his room, and she was weightless on his body. He gently throws her on the bed, taking off his shirt and tossing it to the ground.. Sam did the same, taking off her gown and she was left on her bra and panties.He slowly leans on her, his weight pressed against hers and she didn't mind how heavy he felt on her body. He kissed her again
