I smiled. "You? Cook?"

Even though his words made me feel butterflies in my tummy, it was also funny. In the sense that, I have barely eaten what he has cooked or made before.

"Don't tease me, Sandy. I can cook." He poked my forehead. "And I want you to feel comfortable tonight, seeing that you may still be in shock from what happened today."

The memory of the attempted attack on me flashed in my head. I sighed and nodded in response.

"I'm kinda still in shock… a little. I mean, I'm used to this band of people making viral posts of how you're this and that, how the company is this and that but it's different when they come to us and attack us."

Anthony cupped my cheeks and drew his body close to mine, making me feel the warmth of his skin through our clothes. He smiled softly at me and traced his gaze around my face.

"I'm going to make sure that she pays for trying to hurt you. I will deal with anyone who even thinks of hurting you." He kissed my forehead and stepped away, leaving me

    I woke up to the sound of my phone’s alarm ringing, making me groan and turn on the bed I was on. My body felt different only to remember that I was not in my house nor in my bed but at Anthony’s place. It wasn’t as if I wasn’t used to sleeping over but the fact that I was finally living with him. It made me feel different and nervous. I never sat down and thought of our living arrangements when we get married. Would we sleep in one room or stay separately? It made me self-conscious for some seconds before I shook my head and grabbed my phone. I turned off the alarm and laid on my back to stare at the ceiling.My thoughts began to drift back to what had happened last night. The way Anthony had teased me with the piece of chicken and how he had left my body feeling turned on and the spot between my legs throbbing. Things would be even harder now that I was living under the same roof with him.Just thinking about how enticing Anthony had looked and how he had stood between my legs, rubb

    Anthony’s POVAfter spending a good amount of time in the shower, enough to dispel the thoughts of best friend, I quickly wore my clothes and picked my work bag before rushing out of the room. I had an important meeting with some new investors, and I couldn’t afford to be late.I struggled with my tie in one hand and my bag in the other as I rushed through the hallway that as soon as I made a turn in the curve of the hallway, I almost bumped into Sandy. The first thing I noticed was that she was dressed in her usual work outfit; long pencil skirt and a top. I blinked at her and opened my mouth to protest, instead she wagged her finger at me.“Not now, Anthony. I really want to go to work. I won’t feel good idling around. Besides, people at work will most likely think I have too much privilege.” She smiled up at me and I rolled my eyes.“Sandy, they already know that you are my girlfriend. What will they say that I haven’t heard? I just don’t want anyone hurting you again,” I said with

    Sandy's POV It hurt. It hurt so much. I hated how I allowed myself to get hurt over the fact that I saw one of Anthony’s lovers. I was supposed to be used to the fact that they were always around him but as long as I still was in love with Anthony, I would always feel jealous and angry within me. The girl was everything Anthony wanted in a woman. She was beautiful, even I who barely felt insecure about myself, suddenly felt insecurities. Her long hair, toned body and nice smile was enough to make Anthony see me as someone not even an inch of who the woman was. I started to regret not arguing with Anthony about the second rule. I knew the day would come when he would bring his lover home or at least be with her somewhere away from home just to get a fill of his sexual needs. I knew that we would never sleep with each other when there are means of me getting pregnant without me sleeping with him. I bit my lip and shut my eyes tight against the pang in my heart. I bowed my head and cu

    Sandy’s POVAfter work, I rushed home with the thoughts of an hour ago in my head, how Anthony had been so close to kissing me. I was still feeling the sting of what happened and how he would never return my feelings. As far as he was clueless, I was only going to get hurt, especially seeing that I agreed to pretend to date and marry him just for the sake of his family business. It was foolish of me to accept this, but I was only helping him for just a few years and after that, I was going to move on. That is, if I don’t move on before the end of the marriage.I sighed as I walked into the house. I saw Gina flipping through a magazine in the living room and I smiled when she looked at me.“Your home early,” she said and dropped the magazine.I nodded and closed in on her before sitting beside her on the couch. I leaned against the couch and hummed.“Yes… and that is because I have a date tonight,” I said, and Gina sat up in surprise.“A date?” She smiled. “With Anthony?”I scoffed and

    Sandy’s POVI woke up the next morning with a gasp when I realized I may have slept in a bit. My heart was pounding so hard. I got up and snatched my phone from the side table and sighed in relief when I saw I still had some time left. I ran my fingers through my hair and scrolled through my phone for any message from Anthony… Weird. He always left me a morning message, even if it had to do with work. My eyebrows furrowed as I wondered why he had not sent me a message, or even an email.“Maybe there is nothing important today. Besides, I don’t think I’m in the mood to entertain him today. Pfft.”I got out of bed and went over to my closet. I took out my work clothes and every other thing I wanted. After I was done, I left the room and entered the bathroom in the hallway. I quickly took off my clothes and turned on the shower, then waited for the hot water to flow. As I crossed over to the sink to brush my teeth, the same ache hit my abdomen. I hissed and leaned against the sink then p

    Sandy’s POVThe wave of awareness dawned on me, and a weightless feeling made me confused as I opened my eyes, which I shut the moment a bright light flashed in my eyes. I waited for some seconds before I opened them again. I blinked and stared at the white ceiling with its ceiling fan, twirling slowly. The room was unfamiliar and to understand where I was, I looked to the side, and I saw a wide window showing me the daytime brightness and buildings close by and in the distance.I looked to the other side and realized from the IV pole and bag, the small wardrobe across the room, the leather couches close by and the large TV screen on the wall, that I was in a hospital. I looked down at my body and saw I was laying on a large hospital bed.I knew what hospital I was in just by the style of the room. This was Anthony’s family hospital, and I was in one of the VIP rooms. I heard a shuffle, and I glanced in the direction of the noise. Anthony was sitting up from a lounge-like couch, rubbi

    Sandy’s POVI heard Anthony speaking somewhere in the living room and I made my way to the room. He had his back facing me as I walked out of the kitchen to where he stood, on a call with someone. As if sensing me, he turned around and smiled at me. I smiled back and he opened his free arm. I went closer and wrapped my arms around his firm body then inhaled his scent. I rested my head on his broad chest for some seconds before I propped my chin on it with my eyes on his face.“Yes… The meeting was scheduled for next month and the invites was sent out yesterday. All I need is for the board to be present for the briefing at the end of this month,” he said and winked at me, making my insides flutter. “Mhm… Alright. I’ll see you tomorrow.”The call ended and I sighed in relief before smiling again with subtle blinks. He smiled and wrapped his other arm around my waist.“What do you want?’ He asked.I opened my mouth to reply, instead he wagged his finger in my face, making me pout.“No… I

    Sandy’s POVAnother week rolled by, and I still had not resumed work. At some point I got used to it and only watched Anthony leave for work and come home like a housewife. It felt weird sometimes, waiting for him to come home. It got to a point that I became excited when he came back. One time, he had come home while I was in the kitchen, he had wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my cheek then said something about getting used to coming home to me.Anthony was the most annoying man I ever knew and I hated how the things he did and said made my heart flutter and feelings grow.“What are you thinking about?”I snapped out of my thoughts and looked away from the plane’s window to look at Anthony, who sat on the other side of the arm rest of the seat in the first class section of the plane. I smiled and shook my head at him.“Nothing,” I said, and he sighed.“I really wish I could avoid this event,” he said and huffed. “Why did my aunt even have to set the event in Seoul? Just b

    Sandy’s POVOur honeymoon was coming to an end. After spending days, having the time of our lives, we were going back to reality, at least, that was what my brain termed it as. What Anthony and I had here was simply a fantasy. Everything that had gone on since we arrived here was all because of responsibility and our new rule in the contract binding our new lives.Once we get back, we would go back to what took most of our time. Anthony was a workaholic; he was probably going to bury himself in work while I did the same. I was nervous and worried about how our sexual relationship was going to turn out. It was a different thing when we were here and would be something that involved clarity once we got back.I dropped the magazine I was staring at when Anthony walked into the room while on a call with someone. When I heard what the conversation was about, I rolled my eyes. Of course, he was back to working even when we were leaving the hotel tomorrow. Even I, his assistant, barely knew

    Anthony’s POVI poured in everything I was feeling into the kiss while my hands touched every part of her body, yearning to feel her skin. My heart was ramming fast, my mind was haywire with so many emotions and my body was at the top of a high place, reveling in the sensation of having her, of feeling her body on mine.I pulled away from her lips and kissed her cheek then kissed my way to her jaw, then to her neck. I cupped her face and settled myself between her legs then propped my weight on my elbow before kissing her neck. I moaned at the taste of her skin and ran my tongue on her neck, which made her grind into my cock with a whimper. I smirked at the reaction and bit her flesh softly, nibbling at the skin.Sandy moaned even more and held the back of my head then gave me more access to her neck by tilting it. I gave her neck an open-mouthed kiss, kissing her flesh passionately as if it was her soft lips. I wanted to paint her skin with my marks, I wanted any man who saw her beau

    Anthony’s POVI gulped hard when she suddenly straddled me on the bed. She pressed her hands to my chest and forced me to lay flat on my back then settled down on my cock, which stirred underneath the flaps of my robe. I could feel blood rushing to my cock and feel the familiar heat of horniness in my body as she smiled down at me, looking like a sexy devil with bad thoughts in her head for me.Sandy placed her hands on both sides of my head and brought her face closer to mine. I couldn’t help but hold her waist and pull her closer to me then stare at her lips. I wanted to feel them on mine, to kiss them and make them one with mine. I was addicted to kissing those soft and sweet lips of hers so much that I could kiss them every second of my life without getting tired.“You want a kiss, pretty boy?” She asked and I nodded. “I can’t hear you.”Damn. She was trying to make me go crazy. This was not my sweet and innocent Sandy. The woman before me was a minx, she was a seductress, and I w

    Anthony’s POVI was anticipating what Sandy was going to surprise me with. I was feeling impatient and wanted time to run by so fast. I was so eager to know what she had for me. I wanted to act like there wasn’t anything coming but my mind could not rest.I checked what the time was on my watch and cursed under my breath when I saw it was just five pm on the dot. One more hour to go. This felt like torture, and she was sitting across me like she had not said anything about surprising me. I watched her as she took a bite out of her fries while scrolling through her phone.What was she planning?I sighed and took a sip out of my glass of water then rose to my feet.“Where are you going?” She asked.“I gotta use the restroom. I’ll be right back,” I replied and smiled then walked away.A few minutes later, I arrived in the wing where the restroom was and just as I was about to walk into the men’s restroom, someone grabbed my arm, making me almost trip over my feet. I turned around and gla

    Anthony’s POVI woke up to my alarm ringing, reminding me of the fact that my nap time was up. Which had been a good nap time because the last few days had been a good one for me. Which consisted of a good lack of sleep that came from being with my wife.I grabbed my phone and turned off the alarm then rolled onto my back and sighed. I stared at my reflection in the mirror on the ceiling and my mind immediately flashed to when I had Sandy on the bed, making her feel good under it. My head got filled with the memories of her thrashing under me, writhing in pleasure, crying out my name.The look on her face and the way her body would contort when she was in pleasure made me want to go mad with want for her. When she looked at me with those pretty blue eyes of hers and parted lips, it made my body high with lust. No woman had made me feel this way before and I felt bad for not having her sooner but at the same time, it would mean I was using her like other women, which was something she

    Sandy’s POVAnthony was kidding. He couldn’t be serious with what he was saying to me. A new house?I scoffed. “You’re kidding, right?”He gave me an incredulous look before laughing softly.“Sandy, I am serious right now. Why would I joke about that?”Anthony moved to the side and sat down on a couch. I fully faced him with the key still in my hand. I waited for him to say something to me. I wanted him to elaborate more on what he was giving me. I didn’t want to believe I had imagined what he had said.“Anthony, there was no need for this. We already have a house, don’t we?” I said and sat down beside him on the couch.He shrugged and played with some of the petals of the flower bouquet he was holding while I waited for him to speak more on this. I was feeling impatient and funny from the gift. Buying a new house was an expensive thing to do and I didn’t care if it was a wedding gift, it was too much.Most importantly, how far did he spend to get it?“How much did you buy the house?”

    Sandy’s POVMy hands were shaky as I stared at the picture. I could not believe what I was seeing. My heart was aching from pain, anger and jealousy the more I stared at every picture sent to me. My brain was trying to tell me the truth, forcing me to believe what was in the picture while my heart was doing otherwise, telling me it was all my imagination and that it was something else happening.Why the fuck was Anthony kissing a woman? On our wedding day. On the day we got married, he was in a lip lock with a woman that I could not recognize and from the angle and quality of the picture, this was obviously captured by a paparazzi.I locked the screen of my phone and marched out of the bathroom and moved around the house in my bathrobe, full of angry air. I looked around, hoping to find Anthony but he wasn’t anywhere in the suite. I needed answers from him. I needed to know why he was doing this to hims

    Sandy’s POVI arched my body, rubbing my aching center against his cock that was resting on my lower abdomen. I could feel the weight of his cock and I wanted it in me. I wanted to be filled by it again. It didn’t help that he was kissing me like he was hungry and dying of thirst. He was devouring me with so much passion that my limbs went limp on the table.I moaned when his hand moved from my waist to my pussy which he cupped above my panty. I gasped in his mouth when he rubbed the palm of his hand on my covered pussy.“Already so wet for me. Such a needy pussy you’ve got, wifey,” he whispered and started peppering kisses from my cheeks to my neck where he sucked and nibbled. “Your tight pussy must be so soaked from me just kissing you.”I moaned at the way my pussy throbbed from his words then held the back of his head as he sucked on my neck more. I gasped as he grabbed my panty then ripped it hard, tearing it off me. He was so aggressive; it turned me on even more.“I need to fil

    Sandy’s POVI blinked, shocked at his words. What was he trying to say to me? My heart hammered faster as I tried to decode what he meant even though I understood what he was trying to say. I was just scared that I had misinterpreted his words or something.“Anthony… I don’t understand,” I said and swallowed.Anthony sighed and took a step backward. He rubbed his face then stood sideways so he was facing away from me.“What I am trying to say is I want us to keep having sex,” he said and faced me. “We are going to be married to each other for who knows how long. We’ve had sex and I was wondering if it would be okay to make each other our sex partner… I… Sandy, being with you in that way feels so good. I feel complete when we have sex. I know it’s like us being friends with benefits but… Argh! Never mind, it sounds so weird.”I watched him look restless while smiling to myself. Anthony was asking that we had sex outside of our agreement of baby making. It has always been one of my drea
