Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 14. Another Part of My Soul Bared to Him
Rima’s POVEvery word was a self-condemnation, a bitter pill that I forced myself to swallow. A reminder of my gullibility, my foolishness, and the bitter taste of betrayal that still lingered.“You’ve been wronged, Rima, and it’s natural to feel anger, even towards yourself. But remember, you’re not to blame. You’re a victim of their malicious games” Tony continued, his voice firm yet gentle.“You’ve got a big heart, Rima, and it’s one of the things I admire about you. You’re not the fool here, they are. They failed to appreciate the person you are, they misused your trust. That’s on them, not you”“Right now, it’s important to focus on healing, on moving forward. You’re stronger than you think, Rima. You’ve survived this, and you will thrive too. Don’t let them define you. You are so much more than what they made you believe”I let To

Rima’s POVI nodded at Mr. Snow’s words, appreciating the sentiment even though I had no intention of revealing any more of my vulnerability to him “Thank you, Mr. Snow” I said quietly “Shall we continue with the presentation?”Instead of agreeing, he shook his head “Rima, you’re excused for today. We can continue working tomorrow”I stiffened at his words. I didn’t want his pity, nor did I want his judgment of my ability to work based on what he’d witnessed. The idea of being alone with my thoughts was daunting. The work was a distraction, something I needed now more than ever “I’m fine, Mr. Snow” I retorted stubbornly “Let’s finish this”He regarded me silently for a moment, his gaze probing as if searching for something. Whatever he found in my determined expression seemed to convince him that I needed this. With a mild nod, he finally agreed “Al

Jacob’s POVThe day at the office was bustling with activity, a whirlwind of meetings and decision-making. Rima was at the center of it all, managing the chaos with an admirable level of competence. I couldn’t help but notice how bright her eyes were today compared to yesterday. She was alert, more determined, and less tense. The day ended with a sense of accomplishment, and we both knew it was time to shift gears – from the day’s work to the impending presentation.Day one of our practice sessions was in the confines of my personal office, an intimate space that was designed to inspire confidence and comfort. The city lights painted a captivating backdrop, as if the city itself was playing a part in this pivotal moment. The day's work had culminated to this moment - coaching Rima for a critical client presentation that lay two days ahead. And it was not just a part of it, she was to carry the entire presentation on her shoulders.The mom
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 17. Unsettling Ripples of Revelations
Rima’s POVAs I sat at my desk, the humdrum tasks that usually consumed my attention seemed to fade into the background, replaced by a vivid and unshakeable replay of last night. It was as if my brain had suddenly been hijacked, stubbornly looping the same scenes like a glitching software refusing to load the next task.The moment Mr. Snow stepped away from his desk and closed the distance between us was etched into my mind with startling clarity. I could still feel the electric charge that crackled in the air, the anticipation that made my heart flutter wildly against my ribs. And his words, oh his words, they echoed in my mind, a silent mantra that transformed my fears into something more tangible, more conquerable.“Your stance,” he had said, his fingers feather-light on my shoulders “It should echo your confidence. Shoulders back, chin up, eyes steady”I remembered how my breath hitched when he traced a path from my shoul
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 18. Don't Look at Me Like That
Rima’s POVThe room was silent, save for the sharp echo of Mr. Snow's final threat. Mr. Demir rose from his chair, his smirk still in place.As he collected his things, he paused, a calculating look in his eyes. He turned to Mr. Snow, his smirk still firmly in place.“Jacob,” he drawled, a hint of mockery in his tone “You’ve always been good at playing the respectable businessman. But we both know the truth, don’t we?” His eyes flicked to me, then back to Mr. Snow, the insinuation clear.“Your past… it always has a way of catching up, doesn’t it? It’s a shame your assistant had to find out this way. But we can’t all keep our skeletons as well hidden as we think, can we?”With that, he shrugged, as if the words he’d just dropped were nothing more than casual conversation. He strolled towards the door, but paused at the threshold, throwing a final glance over his sho
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 19. What Was That?
Rima’s POVI took a deep breath, feeling the weight of the decision hanging over me like a storm cloud. I knew the risks, I knew the dangers that came with his family name, but I also knew what I had found in this job - a spark of purpose, a sense of belonging, a place where I was growing and evolving.I thought about leaving, starting fresh, finding a new job. But the idea of abandoning all that I had built, all that I had achieved; as little as it might seem given it’s barely been a week, felt like leaving a piece of myself behind. It was more than just a job - it was a part of me now.His world was a place I had promised myself I would avoid at all costs. But leaving now would mean giving into fear, letting it dictate my decisions, my life….all over again.I was stronger than that. I had faced adversity before, had overcome hurdles greater than this. I could handle it. More than that, I wanted to handle it. I wanted to face the chall
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 20. Lost in Translation
Jacob’s POVI considered reaching out to my brother, seeking his advice on how to handle Demir. Perhaps I could simply pass Demir's number onto Alex, allowing him to deal with the situation and rid me of this nuisance. Yet, Demir's veiled threat - the insinuation that he would do something undesirable if I didn't comply - kept me from giving in to that decision right away. His words echoed ominously in my mind, a dark reminder of the potential storm brewing on the horizon.The question weighed heavily on my mind, a pendulum suspended in the eerie silence of indecision. There were multiple paths to consider, each with its own set of consequences.One option was to confront Demir, to tell him to go to hell and refuse making the introduction. But that could potentially escalate the situation, drawing Rima further into the vortex of danger. The thought was unacceptable, an outcome I wouldn't permit under any circumstances.Another possibility was to inv
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 21. A Mirror of My Own Making
Rima’s POVBy the time it was our rehearse for presentation in his home office, it was around six in the evening.My mind was still entangled in the web of today's shocking revelations. I was seething, simmering with a fury that threatened to scorch my sanity.He, the man I had begun to trust, had revealed his ties to the very entity I abhorred to my core - the mafia. Perhaps, he was still knee-deep in the underworld for all I knew. His vague responses neither confirmed nor denied the extent of his involvement with his notorious family.A bitter question gnawed at my heart. How had I fallen into this abyss once more? What cosmic jest was this, God? I tasted bitterness, acrid and potent, as if I had bitten into the most bitter fruit imaginable.This bitterness permeated my demeanor, rendering my interactions with him as dry and rigid as autumn leaves. The words between us, once flowing freely, were now as scarce as raindrops in a desert.

Love Me Not, Mr. Snow Epilogue
Jacob’s POVNine Months Later"Isn't he just exquisite?" Mom breathed out, utterly captivated. Her eyes shimmered with grandmotherly tenderness as she leaned over the crib, absorbed in the cherubic face of our little one. The baby returned her gaze with a quiet, wide-eyed wonder, a tiny observer in his newfound world.Nine extraordinary, life-changing months had rolled by since Rima, my beacon of strength and beauty, and I found our way back to each other. Each sunrise, each sunset, each shared glance and whispered "I love you" had knitted our lives closer together.Only three weeks after that heartfelt proposal amid the soft, cascading snowflakes in my hometown Snow, we vowed to be each other's forever in front of those who mattered most. Our honeymoon was a blur of laughter, shared secrets, and the unspoken promise of a lifetime of togetherness.One of my pledges to Rima, that radiant woman who radiates courage and kindness in equal measure
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 103. Forever Much
Rima’s POVTears began to pool in my eyes, born from the profound sincerity of his confession. My body was still humming, a residual echo of what had transpired just moments ago.The notion of him spanking me had never crossed my mind before, it was a boundary I had vowed never to cross again. Yet, when it happened... it felt right. It sparked an unexpected surge of desire within me. And it was all because of him, because of Jacob. With him, I felt a safety I hadn't felt before, a certainty that a simple, firm "stop" from me would have been enough to halt him, despite his anger.And when he took control, thrusting into me from behind, his dominance over my body was mind-blowing, earth-shattering."You're ogling" Jacob teased, his voice filled with amusement. I had spent the last few minutes drinking in his handsome features, marveling at how much I had missed them."I can't help it. I was on the brink of madness, thinking I might never see yo
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 102. Gentle? Or Rough?
Jacob’s POV"Jacob..." Her voice was breathy, filled with a potent mix of surprise and pleasure. Her response fueled my desire, driving me to repeat the action, each spank a punctuation to the silent conversation our bodies were having. She met each one with a gasp, a moan, a plea for more.My hand moved in a rhythm of its own, rising and falling, each impact a resonant note in the symphony of our reunion. The room was awash with the symphony of our breaths, punctuated by the sharp smacks of my hand against her flesh and her soft cries of surrender."Say you want this, Rima" I commanded, my voice a husky rumble that punctuated the quiet around us. It was not a mere question, but a demand, a plea for her to vocalize the raw, unadulterated desire we were both drowning in."Yes...God, yes, Jacob" she gasped out, her words syncing with the rhythm of my hand against her skin. Her admission was a sweet capitulation, a confession of the primal dance we wer
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 101. Damn You!
Jacob’s POVThe moment I found her in the closet, my heart had dropped like a stone in my chest. She was here. She was real. The woman who had haunted every waking moment and every restless dream, was here, in the flesh.Her presence was like a punch to the gut, stirring up a whirlwind of emotions I'd buried deep within me. Anger, hurt, betrayal - they all surged to the surface, a potent cocktail that threatened to consume me. Yet, beneath it all, there was a glimmer of something else. Relief? Hope? I couldn't tell.The moment I saw her pull the trigger, my world came to a screeching halt. The gun, instead of being aimed at the door, was pressed against her own chest. My heart pounded in my ears, a deafening drum that drowned out everything else. I watched in frozen horror as her fingers tightened around the trigger, a look of grim determination on her face.But the expected bang never came. The gun didn't discharge. The safety was on.Her ha
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 100. I Hate You Back!
Rima’s POVHis words struck me like a sledgehammer, shattering my composure as easily as glass under strain. Never in my life had I anticipated hearing them, never had I fathomed the depth of meaning he'd imbue in them. The impact was monumental, a seismic shift that brought me to my knees, or would have, had his unyielding grip on my chin not kept me upright."No, please!" I found myself pleading, a raw cry torn from somewhere deep within. Pain surged through me, transcending all previous thresholds as those three damnable words echoed in my mind, a relentless mantra of rejection.Through my sobs, I reached out, my hands wrapping around his arm in a plea for mercy, for understanding. I was a puppet to my emotions, my words and actions spilling forth in an uncontrollable torrent "Jacob, don't do this to me! Don't kill me in this way! You could take that gun and shoot me right now, and it wouldn't be as painful as hearing those words from you!"His r
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 99. Higher Power Intervention
Rima’s POVTransfixed, my eyes met a familiar pair of warm brown depths that had haunted my dreams and tormented my waking hours. Eyes filled with a raw, horrifying realization of my intention, a sight I never anticipated to witness.Was it a cruel twist of fate? Or perhaps the intervention of some higher power that had caused me to overlook the safety on the gun, preventing me from taking my own life in his presence?His eyes were wide, mirroring my own shock, filled with an emotion that looked suspiciously like relief. His gaze was heavy with an unreadable mix of emotions as he took in the sight of me, trembling, gun still pressed against my chest.Tentatively, Jacob reached out, his hand shivering as much as mine, and gently eased the gun from my grasp. His touch was gentle, warm, a stark contrast to the cold steel that had been resting against my skin moments before.He placed the gun on the nightstand with a care that suggested he was ha
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 98. Went Off on Her Own
Jacob’s POV"Let her go, Jacob. It's for your own good" Demir's voice rang out, hard and unyielding as I reached for the car handle, my other hand still holding Rosalie at gunpoint."Give me what I want and she'll be free" I retorted, my voice final."I promised Rima I'd keep you away from her. What will she think if I broke my word for you?" Demir shot back, trying to negotiate.My jaw clenched at his words. It was just like Rima to sacrifice her own happiness to protect the ones she loved, to prevent herself from experiencing another loss, even if that meant losing in another way - through separation."Do I care? Probably not!" I snapped, swinging the car door open for Rosalie.Just as she was about to step into the car, Demir's voice rang out again "Fine! I'll tell you!"That was surprisingly easy.Whoever Rosalie was to Demir, it was clear that she was far more than just a 'sub' to him."But not before you release her. Right this instant" Demir demanded, his tone serious.I looked
Love Me Not, Mr. Snow 97. What the Hell, Snow?!
Jacob’s POV"Where is she?" The words slipped through my clenched teeth, each one heavy with an urgency that refused to be ignored."Do you really think my answer will change from when your brothers came asking the same question?" Demir replied, a hint of mockery tinging his words.I slammed my fist on the desk, my patience dwindling "Stop toying with me, Demir! You're the one she'd turn to after Tony's death. I know she came to you" I shot back.His response was a smirk, cold and infuriating "So, by your own admission, she doesn't trust you at all. Maybe you should take your own hint, Jacob, and let her go. She certainly has let you go"I could feel a hot rush of anger sweeping over me, an insurmountable wave that drowned reason and restraint. My fist connected with his jaw, the impact sending a jolt of pain through my chest as my wound protested the sudden movement. But I didn't allow the flare of pain to show on my face."Consider this your final warning, Demir" I warned, my voice
