Chapter 19 I don't know what I am doing. I couldn't help but to watch Sean closely. My eyes were glued at him and I totally forgot to blink. He was wiping my arms with the warm water, just like what I did to him earlier. I couldn't feel its warmness. All I could feel is the deafening beating of my chest right now. Seriously, what are you doing, Dahlia? You should have went home. He looks sincere. Sean was too serious and focused just like what I always see when he's working. “You should eat,” he said and began to serve food on the bed table. The food didn't catch my eyes. I was still watching every little move he made. “I hope this is enough. If not, then I'll tell them to cook more.” The side of his lips rose. Pull yourself together, Dahlia. Stop looking at him! “No,” I commented, trying to find my words. “This is a lot, actually.” I added and chuckled. “Go on, eat.” He uttered and stood his hand under his chin, keeping his eyes at me. My brows arched. “A
Chapter 20 I've gone mad. When Sean heard my answer, he didn't hesitate to invade me entirely. I was sure that I was not sick anymore. But then, I felt really hot. I was sweating beyond the coldness that the air conditioner provides in the kitchen. My eyes were closed the entire time while I was feeling Sean's hands traveling on my body. My hands were attached to his nape while his kisses were going down on my body. I indeed lost all my strength when he began to kiss me. Right now that he was filling me with his kisses and while his hands were lurking around my body, I have no strength to even move anymore. Every slip of his hands on my skin makes me crave more. It's like a drug that makes me addicted to his touch that was warming and giving me so much pleasure. “Oh, sh*t, Sean.” I moaned, losing my right mind. He's driving me crazy. The pleasure was satiating me, and I knew that I could never stop even if I wanted to. Am I doing the right thing? I don't know anymore. All I
Chapter 21I was sobbing while making Sean's coffee. I kept trying to shed all my tears, but I can't just hold it back. It feels like there was a stuck knife on my chest that I could feel it aching extremely. Why am I even crying? Fucking hell. How can I fall in love with my own boss? I tried so hard to convince myself that he's just benevolent to avoid all of this. But look at me right now, crying. I still ended up telling him what I feel for him and yet I never once heard from him if he wants me. Perhaps, he only wants me because there is a resemblance of Celeste to me. “She's here again,” I quickly wiped off the tears that were soaking my entire face as soon as I heard my colleagues enter the coffee room. I had to pretend that I didn't hear them at all as I didn't want them to notice that I was crying as well. “I would not be surprised if she ended up with Mr. Cohen,” the woman chuckled.“Of course, she's seducing him.” They both giggled and I didn't use my remaining strength
Chapter 22“When are we going home, Sean?” I asked, still upset. Who would not be upset? He brought me to London all of a sudden. In one snap, we are now here in London for god's sake. “Come on, we just arrived here. Why are you asking when we will go back?” He chuckled. This is all a joke to the both of them. Fuck, Ford. He didn't even mention that his freakin’ bar is located in another country! “Because I don't even have clothes, Sean. I didn't even bring a toothbrush for Pete's sake!” I exclaimed while I was already brushing my hands on my arms, trying to create warmth on my skin. When Sean noticed that I was cold, he quickly hung his coat on my shoulders. I glanced at him for a second before I moved my eyes away as well. I didn't resist anymore and wore the coat. It's so damn cold here. “Don't worry, I asked them to buy everything you need.” He replied. We are both waiting for the car in front of the airport. I bit my lower lip. He asked them to buy everything I need. Does i
Chapter 23My brows met with annoyance as soon as I heard the doorbell. I remained my eyes shut as I found it hard to open. I still want to sleep, maybe because of this comfortable place where I am right now. I just want to stay here and not get up all day. “Hold on!” I exclaimed and forced myself to wake up. As I sat on my bed, the huge mirror in front of me slapped me with how miserable I looked in the morning. My hair is a total mess and my face is crumpled this early. I had to roll my eyes as I began to walk lazily. “Who's that? It's freakin' early,” I even mumbled. I knew that I was still not myself. My mind is still sleeping peacefully. I couldn't help but to close my eyes a bit as I slowly opened the door. “Sean,” I uttered while yawning. I even stretched my arms in front of him. Wait…Sean is here? IT'S FUCKING SEAN! My jaw dropped and I quickly hid my face with my hands. What the hell? I look like a mess and he just saw my flaw! “What are you doing here?!” I was about
Chapter 24“What's going on?” Ford asked when he went to the scene. I looked around and the people are now looking at us. I was still trembling. “You better ban that man here, Ford. He was harassing Dahlia,” Sean said firmly, eyeing the man he knocked out in one punch with his burning eyes. “He harassed you?” Ford asked. It was the first time I saw Ford being serious like this. His eyes were dark as if he could do something that this man would not like at all. “Y-Yes,” I replied with fear painted on my face. “Get him,” he said to the two men with huge muscles. They are probably the guards here. As soon as they picked him up on the floor and forced him to stand, my eyes widened when Ford suddenly punched him again. My lips parted as I was not expecting him to do that. I heard the entire crowd grasping. “Get him out of here,” Ford said with authority. “Are you okay?” Sean asked me. I nodded, still lost for words. “That’s why I didn't want to leave you alone,” he added and heaved
Chapter 25The next day, my entire body somehow feels heavy. As I woke up, the sleeping Sean beside me greeted me. His arm was belted on my waist. It took me a few seconds before I processed everything that happened. My jaw just dropped while glancing at him. Now, I couldn't move because I was afraid that I might wake him up in a single move. I bit my lower lip when I checked under the covers, and saw myself naked. “Fuck,” I mumbled. When I made a single move with my leg, I almost screamed in pain. I had to bite my lower lip so hard to avoid creating noise that would wake him up. Damn it! My womanhood is sore! “Is it sore?” I froze immediately the moment I heard Sean's voice. His breath even hit my skin the moment he spoke. “It is,” I replied. My cheeks burned immediately. Why would I be shy? He already saw all of this! I couldn't even look at him. I heard him chuckle. “It will be really sore for a first timer,” my brows arched and now faced him beside me. “It seems like you're
Chapter 26I don't know how many hours we stayed in the car after I found out what Charlotte dug in. I was totally in awe. I couldn't even shed my own tears while I was looking nowhere. Charlotte was just beside me, sitting with me in silence. I know she's hurt to see me in pain. I have never felt this before and I didn't know that love has the most excruciating strike of pain. I gave half of me to Sean, even the most precious thing that the women have. I thought I was the one whom he loved the night that I saw purity from those eyes; I was fooled. “What now?” Charlotte asked. “What's your plan?” However, no matter what hatred I have, it cannot conceal the truth that my heart screams his name. What hurts is, his heart screams Charlotte. “Would you be mad at me if I still want to love him?”“Dahlia,” she called firmly. I smiled bitterly as I moved my eyes away from her. Of course she would not like it. She cares for me so much. We've been treating each other as sisters for our enti
