Infatuation chapter 25
She stepped back slowly and slid the curtains back in their place. He already saw her peeking at him. She got back into the bed and pulled the covers up to her face. She didn't know where they are going with this frail relationship but she was determined on changing him. *It was early morning and she was getting ready for her office. She wished that today whoever bodyguard Carter has assigned comes to pick her up in evening, she cannot afford another ride with Carter, certainly not a chance in hell now!Wearing her silk blouse with that tea pink suit, she got down in her heels, clink and clanking against the marble floor. She saw maids placing dinner on the table while Carter was already sitting at the table, and continued his breakfast. His grandmother was although not in sight and she took her old place, across him. She could feel his eyes roaming on her for a longer moment. She didn't mind it if he was a normal man rather than a psycho mafia boss who finds pleasure in killin

She stepped down carefully, cautious not to trip on her own dress and fall down. Surprisingly Carter was standing by the stairs as he continued to stare her while she awkwardly uncomfortable. As she stepped down the last three stairs, he held out his hand to her. She looked at his hand and then at him. He can't be serious!She mentally questioned his gesture but then to avoid any argument, she lend her hand in his as he helped her get down. He walked her to the car while all the time, his hand was lying on her lower back as he guided her out. She sat in his Limousine which was so comfortable that she didn't even know that he owns one. It was such a huge surprise for her that only for once she felt grateful for him being in mafia. He was sitting right across her on the seat and his gaze still hadn't left her face. She was getting nervous now. God knows how she covered those hand prints around her neck and her bitten lip with dark lipstick. His touch still wasn't completely forgotte

The valet opened the car door for them as they both got out. He led her the way on the red carpet as all along his hand was on her lower back. She was still recovering from the pleasure she just experienced. She was so uncomfortable with her bare legs underneath. God forbid she didn't know how she's going to spend the whole night, half naked. Men in suits stood by the main door as they welcomed Carter with a bow. He led her to a table where he took the drink from a waiter who just came to them and offered different types of drinks. She took the glass of champagne from his hand and gulped it down in one go as if she needed it more than him. He watched her in surprise, maybe she was still high.Soon after, Carter's colleagues and many other rich men surrounded the table making her feel out of the circle. Although Carter tried to keep her by his side, all the the time his hand lingering on her lower back. She tried to remove it several times because he was teasing her in every possib

She wanted to scream because the pain was racking. Her breath hitched when he pulled out the fork from her flesh and silent tears escaped her eyes, sinking in to her lap. He cleaned the bloody fork with the tissue and continued to eat his food with the same utensil while she pressed the wound with her hand to stop the bleeding and ease the pain somehow. "Mrs Carter what's wrong? Is the food too spicy?" One of the men who sat right across her noticed her tears and asked her. She lifted her face to look at him and her eyes were red with all the tears while her face flushed. "I guess so, she has no endurance for spice at all" Carter replied to him instead with a huge smile plastering his face. "Then I should order you some dessert" he replied and waved the waiter to come and take his order. In a few moment, chocolate ice-cream was placed in front of her but unfortunately it was not easing the pain which was arising from her wound. As she kept raking the fork in the full plate and w

The next morning she woke up beside him. He was close to her, yet maintaining enough space between them. She took in his features for a moment, he looked ethereal and calm while asleep. How she did not notice it before?He was always this attractive but she was too concerned about her own crown that she never looked beneath her. But something changed about him. He was not that Anthony anymore she insulted so easily back then. That older version of him was vulnerable and weak while this one was ruthless and dominant. He now owned power and it was the most sexy thing about him which attracted her to him. She got up and went into bathroom to take a good warm shower. After taking a painkiller last night, her leg didn't hurt anymore but it was uncomfortable to walk like this. She changed into her suit for the work and got out of the bathroom, only to find Carter absent in the room. He was nowhere in sight as if he just disappeared in 10 minutes. She combed her hair and applied makeup.

As soon she got off the plane, she heaved a sigh of relief. It was a long flight and at every point she underestimated herself, that maybe she won't be ever able to reach her home again. But luckily she escaped Carter and came back to her parents house. She knocked on the door as tears swelled her eyes with happiness. She couldn't believe it that she really made it. He can now go and fuck himself, she thought in resentment as her leg started to hurt with every little step she took. It was after a moment that the door opened and an old woman appeared in the doorway. Her smile faded, knowing that she was not her mother. "Yes?" She asked Veronica. "My parents use to live here! Where are they? Are you newly shifted here?" "Oh yeah, I just moved here. The previous owners just sell this house a month ago " her words shocked her even more. How can they seel this house in which they had been living for all their life?"Can you please give me there contact number or even address?" Veroni

After the unfortunate death of his grandmother he cancelled his flight for the night. He didn't know how many days he would need to recover but he decided not to go until he's full stable. "Let that bitch enjoy a little before I take her life away" he seethed bitterly. Jason hummed in response and left the room after Carter told him to cancel his flight. After that night, he inspected Reynold and his whereabouts. He didn't know why he was doing that but somehow the man touching his woman didn't settle well with him. After a lot of digging he came to know that Reynold belong to his enemies side. He was the part of the mafia which had been stealing their goods for a while. "It'll be good reason to get rid of him" he sneered, sitting alone in his office. "Mr Carter, Miss Ashley is here to see you" his secretary knocked on the door and informed him. "Let her in" he told her. Few seconds after, Ashely walked in wearing the sleek black dress which had no shoulders or sleeves. "You l

It has been a week now and she had been going on very well with her acquaintances. They loved her designs and ideas and she got more and more confident with it. "Miss Veronica, you have been called in the CEO's office" her manager came on the door and informed her. "Everything's alright?" Veronica couldn't help but ask because it was out of ordinary for her. "Seems so, he was very calm about it. But I think you're newly hired so probably because of that, he likes to meet his new employees" she told her and Veronica sighed but her anxiety didn't decrease as she picked up her phone and headed towards the elevator. When she was finally there, she informed his assistant who's desk was right outside his office. And after taking his permission she let him inside the office. As soon she stepped inside she was met with a strong scent manly scent which seemed familiar. She lifted her eyes to take a look at the man who owned this smell. A ticklish feeling ran down her spine when she recog

Wearing a white dress which was adorned with pearls in it, long enough for the bridesmaids to carry and expensive enough to not touch the ground. Shaping her figure perfectly as its silk hugged all of her curves and kissed every inch of her body like no one could. A net veil hanging above her face as a diamond head piece on her head as if she was a queen walking towards her throne. Her fragile hands had a bouquet of white roses in between them which had also had pearl studded in it as they were held together with a ribbon. Her father on her side while Sam on her other side. Her mother was also beside her as she walked towards the aisle. People gasped watching the new bride coming in, her hair style looked so fine and natural as if made in heaven with perfection. Her face had the most nature makeup on as if angels did it with their own hands. Her Gucci heels made her stand tall and confident. The scent of flowery cologne was so strong that everyone close to her was enchanted with her

Reynold did exactly as he said. He called off the deal and abducted Gerard on his way to his home. Kept him in his warehouse and tortured him for days until he begged for his death. But he didn't allow it yet. He got his employee back and even apologized to her for such a harsh attitude she had to go through. Everyone was surprised but that's how he was. He always kept it equal. Either with his enemies or friends. He never liked anyone having an upper hand on him. He even rewarded his employee with a bonus as a compensation for her emotional loss. The footage also came out as evidence and he didn't need anymore proof to prove he was actually a bastard. The following day, Veronica asked him to join her as they had to get Alex admission in school. He was going to join the play group batch with all the other toddlers. Veronica already confirmed the spot and all the arrangements were done for the admission. They only had to go and get him enrolled. Veronica didn't want to make Alex f

"care to tell me why would you do that miss? Are you aware how much loss our company has to bear just because of your one stupid behaviour!" He shouted in her face as the poor woman trembled with fear. "I'm sorry sir" she apologized meekly, not lifting her gaze from the floor. "I have no space for sorrys! I am going to fire you!" He announced and she looked up at him, immediately. Losing her job meant that she would never get a job in such a prestigious firm. Most of the companies in interviews always question why they got fired from the previous one and then they don't even hire. "Please sir don't do that! I will try my best next time but your client molested me that's why I couldn't contain my anger and slapped him! I'm sorry, I will not treat anyone like that again!" She started crying as she continued to beg him. "What?" He couldn't believe what he just listened to. Did she really mean by word molested?"Gerard molested you? Miss you should watch your tongue before making suc

"I think I don't want to ruin the moment we're in, so let's leave it for tomorrow morning." She enclosed the topic without revealing anything. But that discomfort still laid deep in her heart and she couldn't wait to let it out.."As you say, but I want to hear it out tomorrow. I won't accept excuses then" he stated and she heaved a sigh as she nodded in response. The cake was set aside as he kissed her on lips and she needed that kiss as she indulged in more and let it continue to a full blown kiss as they made out on the table. He gripped her ass and made her sit on the table as he got in between her legs and grinded his groin against her womanhood while she moaned relentlessly on his mouth. "You're so gorgeous! I'll never get enough of you!" He whispered in her ear as she kissed his neck and down to his Adam's apple. She unbuttoned his shirt and raked a hand over his perfectly built chest and chiseled muscles. Feeling his abes beneath her skin made her arouse so much. "You're we

He was done with his lunch after a while as they both chatted along. He was happy that he finally got these moments of bliss to spend with her after such a hectic routine of the past week. After lunch wrapped up, his assistant knocked in and informed him that Mr Gerard was waiting for him. Veronica got up from her place and picked up her bag, ready to leave. "I should send a driver with you! You shouldn't go yourself" he said considerately as he picked up the receiver to make a call. "Uhh no! I came with my own driver. I'd love to see you tonight or the night after, if your work permits you, of course " she teased him as she headed towards the door. "I get what you mean! I'll see you for sure! Wait for me" he winked before he pecked her lips and she opened the door to leaveBut at the same time the door got opened from the other side as well and Gerard appeared. Both of their eyes met and there was some mockery dancing in his eyes as she looked at Veronica and then smiled at Reyn

They spent the remaining trip discovering different cities of Europe and then in the end they visited Istanbul, Maldives and Thailand. Their trip turned out to be amazing except the hustle of carrying Alex everywhere. Most of the time it became so inconvenient for Veronica to look after him that she regretted it but after all he was her son and she didn't give up on him. Their trip before marriage was the most thrilling experience they had in their lives as they did a lot of shopping and tried out many amazing foods from different cultures. As usual Veronica liked Paris very much due to their warm and welcoming weather and on top of that it had a romantic vibe to it. While Reynold liked all the cities and didn't pick out his favourite. On top of that Veronica got her dress made in Istanbul as she really liked their gowns and decided to go up for size measurements. They chose a beautiful elegant dress which looked gorgeous on Veronica's curves. Reynold was very much excited and he b

After she said yes to marriage, he planned a trip for both of them before marriage. He wanted to see the world with her before they could get married and it involved all their destination places they had been planning since their teenage years.They both were aware that it was going to a long trip and they decided that right after they'll come back home, they'll get married with some intimate family members around. Veronica was thrilled with just having to plan such an amazing trip. She lists down all the countries she wanted to ever since she was a child. Although that also included Italy but now that she was practically living in it, she didn't add that. Their first destination was London starting from Europe. They both packed their bags, stuffed in a lot of warm clothes that they were going to need and some shoes comfortable for travelling. As much as the idea of travelling around the world was intriguing, she was worried about leaving Alex alone with his Nanny. She was going to

"hey!" She chimed over the phone after Reynold picked it over the third ring. "Hi! You sound excited" he hinted at the enthusiasm in her voice. "Yeah I am! Let's have dinner together tonight" she proposed while biting her nails as she was nervous if he would accept it or deny her offer. "Uhh sure, I'll text you when I'm free. Pick you up from your place?" He agreed after a thoughtful observation at his schedule. "Yeah sure, but the place will be of my choice" she stated and he agreed. Soon right after they ended the call, she jumped excitedly on the bed. This was going to be an amazing night after she'll tell him about her feelings and will confess how much she loves him. Her decision is only going to enhance their status of relationship and they will get closer than ever. She made a call to Sam who was in his office and running everyday errands for his family. She told him about how she has fallen in love for the second time and she is going to marry him. "Send me his picture!

Chauffeur opened the door for her and her silver Gucci heel stepped down before she appeared in all her glory and praise. Her sparkling dress was going to be the hot gossip among women tonight and burning sensation in men's chest. But she knew who she belongs to as Reynold wrapped a hand around her waist, firmly and protectively. They were welcomed inside the ball and all the gazes slowly shifted towards the new couple. Her breath was erratic and get hands clammy. There was so much audience and cameras clicking everywhere that her eyes started to hurt from the flashes. When she looked down only then she realised that she was walking on the red carpet. "Don't be nervous! Hold your head high and walk like a queen you are" he whispered in her ear making the goosebumps skitter across her bare skin with his warm voice in that chilling cold. She offered him a smile in return but followed his advice. She held his hand tightly for support as they walked through people and everyone greeted
