HIS CONTRACT BRIDE Dinner with Alex
ASHLEY’S POVI’ve never been on a dinner date before, not even when father had been alive. Though I have had dinner once with Peter, my high school crush back then, I wouldn’t really consider that a date as we had his friends and younger frolicking around us while we dined. It was always rowdy. But tonight’s own would be different.I sat idly in the back seat of the black limousine. The chauffeur wouldn’t tell me where he was taking me to, said Alex had warned him not to say anything about it to me. I look out through the window of the limo and admired the bustling nightlife of the city. We also passed through the famous Le Marais where hundreds of Parisians thronged its entrance, yet we kept on going.Alex might be considered ruthless by the outside world, but he wasn’t a kidnapper.I gazed at my image in the vanity mirror beside me. Donna had volunteered to do my makeup which now needed a retouch because of my nervousness, the heart shaped dropping earrings and its matching silver n

ALEXANDER'S POVShe was quiet and didn't say a word to me all through the drive back home. Neither would she look in my direction. I had tried to initiate a conversation, but her replies had been monosyllabic.She had gone up to the room after saying her goodbye as soon as we arrived home, showered and now slept soundly on the bed.

It should have been perfect as I had lots of sweet plans arranged for us but it all doesn't matter anymore.

ASHLEY'S POV “Give me three reasons you did what you did.” Alex's voice thundered inside the room, making the door shake in terror. I stood outside the door, eavesdropping on them through the door hole. Felix was crouched in a fetal position and spurted thick blood with each heavy kick he got from Alex. I had no idea what was going on, but each reason Felix gave was followed by a rib cracking kick from Alex. I might not have liked Felix, but my heart felt pity for him that instant. I peered through the keyhole and saw Alex walking towards the door. I lifted the hem of my green dress and walked briskly to the kitchen, half running as I walked. “Ashley.” I heard his voice first before his heavy footsteps behind me as I rounded the corner to the kitchen. My skin crawled under my clothes and I felt my heart race against time. My lips also quivered with fear as I stood paralyzed to the spot. I had been caught in the act. I hesitated before slowly turning to face him. He took four

ASHLEY'S POV"Let's get this over with."Those were the longest words I heard him say ever since his entrance to the room. His hoarse voice which held no sign of emotion rumbled like a distant thunder in the large sitting room that was now occupied by his mother, Jane Jordan - the heiress of Jordan Jewelleries, the dark haired judge who sat by an oak table that had been placed in the center of the room for this purpose, Mother, and I , the I-know-nothing-about-this bride dressed in a knee-length lavender gown and silver stiletto heels, nothing befitting for a bride on her big day.I had been in bed this morning, tossing from the sweet dream I was having when Mother stormed into my room cussing and fussing at the top of her high pitched soprano voice. She looked disheveled with bloodshot eyes, like one who had just woken up from a hellish nightmare."Get out of bed, Miss Lazybones." She screamed as she ripped off my bed cover leaving my skin bare at the mercy of the harsh December winte

ALEXANDER'S POVFuck!She's so beautiful I felt like wrapping my arms around her and pull her in for a breathtaking kiss. I'm pretty sure I looked very intimidating with my cold stares, plus I don't know what she must have heard about me that made her look at me with a bombastic side eye.It's not like I'm over the moon about this whole arrangement. I would never had agreed to this if me becoming the CEO of Jordan Jewelleries wasn't attached to it.Mother was about stepping down as the Chairman of the company, and it called for an urgency in either Michael, my eldest brother and rightful heir of the company, or I taking over. Michael who already has his own family and forged a new career path for himself in the Oil and Gas industry had rejected the offer, leaving me as the only viable option. I loved Jordan Jewelleries, dedicated my existence to growing the business after I finished college, and had always looked forward to holding the reins of the company. But now that my dreams wer

ASHLEY'S POV9:00am.I forced my droopy eyes open and squinted in the brilliance of the morning sun which filtered in through the lush curtains, illuminating the dark corners of the room. A sharp pain throbbed in my temples as I gently peeled back the satin bedsheets from my body, exposing my petite frame underneath.The pain doubled in its intensity as I rose quickly from the bed. I swayed to the left when I tried to set my feet on the linoleum floor, that I had to use the bedpost as a support system. "What could be wrong with me?" I thought as I stared at my full length in the standing mirror.A disheveled figure with eye bags underneath her eyelids stared back at me. My cheeks flushed bright red as the events of last night came back to my memory, and I found myself wishing something more had happened last night instead of the mere chemistry.After Alex had left my room, I had enveloped myself in a pool of my own tears. Ever since Father's death and with no one else to keep me safe f
Last Updated : 2023-09-01HIS CONTRACT BRIDE Bride on the run
ALEXANDER'S POVI know I had promised to make things right starting from today. But Mother had other plans for me. I can't imagine the series of thoughts going on in that head of hers. She looked at me, the pain in her eyes silently pleaded with me to choose to stay back."You don't have to go, little angel." I repeated, holding her tiny hands in my big ones. She jerked back at my touch, almost spilling her coffee to the floor.A touch of her is enough to set my ever alive hormones spiralling its way down there. I had promised to take care of her, but how would I do that when she didn't want to be near me. She wouldn't even let me in."I can't. Mother will …"I watched her with interest as she stops mid sentence. What will her mother do? Was she threatened? Did she grow up defending herself from her? Is that the reason she has that wall of protection around her?It seemed there's more to my little angel than she lets me see. The thought of her mother causing her pain made me want to

ALEXANDER'S POVI watched her from where I sat. She frowned and her tiny hands fondled the fray threads of her sweater. The way she sat calmly stirred up my caged i-want-an-escape libido, and my chest tightened in approval. She looked so cute and vulnerable right now.“What’s your favourite colour?” I asked. I’m not sure why I do, as I’m not one to engage in leisure conversations. Especially with a lady.Ashely turned, shifting her gaze to the window. Not that there’s anything fascinating to see, except a sea of white fluffy clouds below us.“I like blue. But I also prefer white and nude colours. Let’s just say I’m a natural when it comes to colours.”A faint musical laugh escaped her lips. Whatever that was, it was a good sign. And I’m glad she beginning to settle in with me.“Okay. I like blue too, all shades of blue,” I responded. Now that I know we share same taste in colours, that’s a good start for us. For me. “Your turn,” I added sharply before she had any chance to reply.“You

HIS CONTRACT BRIDE Presents
ASHLEY'S POVThe early morning sunlight filtered in through the delicate curtain of the bedroom, helping me rise slowly from a night that's starting to slip between my fingers. I rolled to the other side of the bed and was greeted with the cold grip of the fabric instead of Alex's warmth.I opened my eyes and sat up in bed quickly, causing my temples to throb in pain. Wearily, I scanned everything around me. His side of the bed had been dressed leaving no trace of what happened in the night and the pillow was still plopped against the mahogany frame of the bed. I listened carefully for the sound of running water in the bathroom. Nothing. Everything was still intact.Panic gripped me and I rose to my feet, ignoring the pain that had built up in my head.“Alex?” I called out, turning to go to the door. That was when I caught a glimpse of paper neatly folded on the bedside table.I walked over and picked it up. The white paper still held his scent in it, and I press it to my nose to in
HIS CONTRACT BRIDE First time
ALEXANDER'S POV10:05pmThe room had grown dark and was only illuminated by the white light at the center. I had returned to the room to continue with the drafts of the contract agreement after breakfast and only took breaks in between when my brain felt overworked. I pushed the chair backwards and stretched myself as I rose to my feet. I checked my phone for any notification, maybe one from Ashley. There was none. I doubt if she has a phone cause I haven't noticed anyone on her since we got married.I was hungry as I've not had anything since the morning coffee. My stomach growled in approval and I ambled towards the door. I took the elevator downstairs which opened directly into the living room. Ashley lay sprawled on the couch, her hair disheveled and tiny strands covered her face. The television was still on and tuned in to CNN news channel, a plate filled with crumbs of brown bread and scrambled eggs sits close to her legs.I picked the plate, dropped it on the center table and

HIS CONTRACT BRIDE Breakfast?
ALEXANDER'S POV6:00 AMI silently crawled out of bed to have my bath before Ashley gets up. I've tormented myself enough by sharing a bed with her without touching.I slipped off my boxers and slowly stepped into the shower letting the cold water cascade down my body.While Ashley slept, I had forced myself to stay awake for an hour just to watch her. I let myself become her guard, watching her have her sweet dreams while I was in a hell of mine. She restlessly stirred and moaned in her sleep. Whoever was fucking her while she slept would be nothing compared to me when that time comes.I will make sure to erase every memory of him from her mind and make her want only me, no one else.That's another promise I intend to fulfill.*********************8:15 AMAshley still laid in bed. Her body ungainly sprawled on the mattress, her nightie shifted an inch above her long legs, her nipples taut against the satin of the fabric.The flight must have taken its toll on her, I thought as I walk
HIS CONTRACT BRIDE ...for our honeymoon in France
ASHLEY'S POVMy anxiety surged through me as Alex and I walk into the room. I watched him carefully, my heart pounding wildly with each nanosecond that passed.I dutifully walked beside him as he held open the sliding door for me to pass through. We were now in a huge room which served as the main entrance to other rooms.A uniformed man with a wide grin etched permanently on his face stood at attention for us. "Bonsoir, Monsieur Jordan," he greeted warmly. He should be in his early forties going by the sparse amount of grey on his head. "And who might the young lady be?"I couldn't help but noticed the way he looked at me as he led us into another large room."Watch it, Felix," Alex warned in an acidic tone, which sent shivers down my spine. "She is not to be regarded as a young lady," Alex said gruffly, taking my hand in his. "C'est ma femme (This is my wife)."I should be pitying Felix when I saw him shudder for a brief moment under Alex intimidating gaze. Instead, I was glad Alex h
