After Emma left, it was difficult for Henry to focus on anything.Still, stubbornly he kept his mind on work instead of wandering over Emma’s thoughts.Late at night, when he was tired of battling, he finally decided to check on Emma.After all, no matter what he can’t live without her, she is like his oxygen now, if he won’t see her around him, he might suffocate himself.She is a necessity in his life now.He walked to her room, still thinking of her temper, what if she would be angry at his lies, he told Marcella?He knew Marcella must have mentioned them to Emma but he was sure that she couldn’t do any harm to Emma as they were best friends and Marcella also doesn’t look like a wicked woman.She was a polite, good-hearted woman.He knew she just needed the truth from Emma about his lies, and he hoped Emma had given him the truth he wanted her to give to Marcella, so she would give up coming after him.Because if this time, she won’t stop, then Henry has to show her his real person
Henry captured her restless wrists and pinned them beside her head.“It’s me, Emma…” He groaned in her ear.“Henry,” Emma groaned. “Get off me.”“Get Out Of you?” Henry rolled his hips, he wasn’t going to obey her easily. “Really?”Emma wriggled beneath him, she didn't want any physical touch at all.Henry held her wrists harder and started thrusting again.When he moved, she stopped. She blinked rapidly and stared up at him, squinting.Her pulse was quick under his fingertips. She was agitated.“You—”“I taste like you if you don’t believe me.” Henry kissed her with force.He pried her lips open and swept his tongue into her mouth. Soon, the kiss turned fierce. He bit her lip and dragged his teeth down her flesh.She jerked her wrists against his hold and put up a fight for a second. A minute.A fire burned inside Henry.Emma tore her lips from Henry and twisted her head to the side, retching from what Henry did to her, just now.“Arghh…”Her throat burned and her stomach twisted so
“I am leaving,” Emma informed the maid, knowing very well that the second she leaves her room, the maid will rush to Henry to inform him about her whereabouts.The maid nodded, but this time she didn’t need to run to Henry to give the information because Henry himself came over to Emma.“You’re ready? Come, I’ll drop you…” Henry stretched his hand toward her but Emma didn’t take it.“I want to go alone…” She protested.“I know, I am just dropping you off…” Henry explained taking a step forward but Emma still shook her head stubbornly.“No…”Seeing the stubbornness on her face, Henry sighed in defeat.“Fine, the driver will take you, but I am sending people to guard you…” Henry told her, and there was no room for Emma to say NO to this demand of his.She reluctantly nodded her head, and with a smile, Henry stepped aside allowing her to leave.Emma left with the driver, and soon another car appeared beside hers whom she took as the people sent by Henry.****CLAP … CLAP“Right on time…”
The dinner to which Henry has invited Emma wasn’t an ordinary dinner.Just by staring at the huge building, anyone could tell the dinner seemed to be at a place that was grand and outstandingEmma knew this dinner wasn’t near to any ordinary.CLICKThe side of her door opened and Henry offered her his hand gracefully.Emma stared at his hand for a moment, before she took it. She is wearing a luxury dress but without any makeup, she didn’t want to put effort into herself for the dinner especially when it was an invitation from Henry.Her dress was a luxury because her wardrobe was filled with Henry’s orders. She doesn’t have a say in that and she can’t appear at the dinner in her pajamas.So, she opted for a dress.Henry didn’t mind her simplicity, because her simplicity and innocence were something that took away his heart.Henry led her inside and Emma watched the people with an astonished face, they all were bowing in respect, not even daring to glance at them.“Everything is ready,
To erase the shock and numbness from her, Henry spoke again, “I am meeting some of my social friends here… Would you like to join me?”Without thinking, Emma nodded her head and Henry led her the way inside the hotel, and straight to the private club.The private club wasn’t noisy as others, in fact, there were very few people there and Henry introduced Emma to all of them.Looking at the women beside them, with exquisite makeup on their faces, Emma felt outnumbered.She shouldn’t have agreed to come here, she thought in remorse.“You look beautiful…” Henry whispered in her ear as he could read her mind, and Emma gave him a reluctant nod.When they were done greeting people and took a place on the sofa, Emma intended to convince Henry to let her leave but just before she could begin, a sharp voice made her swallow back her words.“My dear cousin, David…” Ronald appeared in her sight, he was holding a glass of champagne and a beautiful tall blonde was beside him.Emma has seen her many
After the night when Henry exposed Emma’s plan, Henry didn’t return to Emma nor Emma made any effort to approach him.But she kept asking for his information from the maids from time to time.She knew pissing Henry won’t bring any luck in her life, hence, she needed to keep things normal between them only then she would be able to escape with Jacob.She hoped Jacob had gotten close to the plan of escape.She had been thinking of an escape plan for herself too. Now, as Ronald’s hope had been lost she couldn’t help but think about Leon, Leon was the only person who talked with her against his boss.At that time in Mexico because of the chaos, she wasn’t able to talk to Leon properly, but if she needed an escape, she should approach him.Thinking of this, she started to brew a plan in her mind slowly.****A FEW DAYS LATERAt midnight, when there was silence in the whole villa, Emma sneaked out of her room and went to Henry’s room on her tiptoes.She entered his room and heaved a sigh of
Everything that happened between them was so overwhelming for Emma, she took a fine long moment to separate her frigid, sweating body from Henry’s.He didn’t mind as Emma moved away and then went into the washroom to wash, she even picked up one of Henry’s shirts from the wardrobe and wore it showing Henry her acceptance of him.Henry was watching her with a silent gaze, he was indeed happy by Emma’s approach.Emma saw that Henry was quietly observing her while showing no emotions on his face, she needed to know if he was satisfied with her performance or not.“Stop staring at me like this,” Emma snapped at him as she bent down and picked up his scattered clothes from the floor but as she stood straight, she felt the presence of Henry behind her.“I was just admiring your beauty,” He spoke softly, his hands curved around her body, his member was again hard and pressing into her bottoms giving her an alert.His fingers moved inside the shirt, and his hands took the hold of her heavy bo
Many unexpected things happened tonight, but the one that shook Emma was the words she said to Henry.“Make Love To Me.”How could she say those words to her enemy?Has she forgotten what he had done to her?What he did to Jacob?He is a cold-blooded murderer, a criminal, a ruthless man with no heart, no emotions, and no goodness for the other.But for his child, he was keen on his child, maybe a child would change him definitely.Emma was perplexed and her heart was in a terrible condition, she felt guilty and calm at the same time.She turned to the side and stared at the man laying beside her, his hand rested at her stomach but just as she turned to his side it shifted to her waist.Emma stared at his peaceful, unharmful face, she can’t tell if she could ever believe in this man if he ever carried any good for her or for those whom she cared for.But what about Jacob?Won’t he be hurt if he found out what she had done…Tonight, whatever happened, it wasn’t forced, nor by any pressu
