2023-10-02 00:05:20Rima’s POV
I felt their eyes on me, their gazes heavy with unspoken queries: Why had a simple lullaby provoked such a profound emotional response? Why was I visibly in pain, struggling to mask my anguish from them?
“Excuse me” I murmured, my voice barely audible. I was on the verge of standing up, ready to retreat and let my tears flow freely in solitude, when Diana's hand gently gripped my arm. Her voice, soft yet steady, broke through the heavy silence “Rima, it's okay" her voice was soft, her touch gentle "You don't need to hide your feelings. You don't have to go"
Her words, though kind, only served to bring more tears to my eyes. I wanted to pull away, to escape to a private place where I could let my emotions out freely. But Diana's hold was firm; not restraining, but supportive.
Diana passed the sleeping baby to Jenny, who was closest to her, and took my hands in hers. There was a warmth and sincerity in her touch that made

Rima’s POV"Are you absolutely certain about this?" Jacob questioned, his tone laced with a hint of concern. He extended a gun towards me, his eyes reflecting an unspoken anxiety. He seemed to worry that I might recoil from the danger inherent in such an activity, that fear might overtake me and create a rift between us once more.With a tentative smile, I reached out and took the gun from him, my grip steady "Yes, Jacob. I'm a hundred percent sure. Just relax, and let's enjoy this moment together" I assured him.The competition hadn't started yet, and I was the only one scheduled for a practice session. They all surmised I was inexperienced with firearms and wanted to give me a fighting chance so that Jacob and I wouldn't embarrass ourselves in the upcoming competition. Jacob himself was considered rusty, having confessed that he hadn't held a gun in five years, but he chose not to join me in the training. Perhaps his years of experience had ingrained in

Rima’s POV"I always hate this part the most" Diana's voice rang out softly, choked with emotion. She was hugging Jacob goodbye, for the third time. But this time, her embrace had an air of finality. She clung to him, her fingers wound tightly in the fabric of his coat, her resolve not to let him go etched in every line of her body. Her tears, once delicately balanced on the edge of her lashes, now streamed freely down her face, a silent testament to her struggle to suppress her sobs.It was a heartrending scene, the raw pain in her eyes mirroring the ache that had lodged itself in our hearts. The sight of her distress over Jacob's departure felt like a physical blow, a poignant reminder of the deep bonds that tethered them to one another.The room was dimly lit, the hands of the clock creeping closer to seven in the evening. It was our third day here, and the inevitable moment of farewell was fast approaching. Our flight at the Fairbanks airport was sched

Rima’s POVWith only half an hour until our departure, we navigated the labyrinth of security checks and checkpoints with practiced ease. There was no time to relax in the lounge, as we were ushered directly onto the tarmac where the sleek private jet that brought us here awaited.The interior of the jet was bathed in a soft, ambient light, the plush seats beckoning invitingly. We slipped into the same seating arrangement as before - me by the window, Jacob beside me, his presence a comforting constant.As the cabin crew began their pre-flight checks, a wave of unease washed over me. My hand trembled slightly as I reached for my seatbelt, the cool metal clasp slipping through my fingers. A bead of sweat trickled down my forehead, my palms growing clammy.The all-too-familiar fear began to claw at my insides, my stomach churning ominously. It felt like a cruel puppeteer was tugging at my intestines, threatening to evacuate my earlier meal. My phobia

Rima’s POVI watched him, this man who had just bared his soul to me, his face a canvas of raw emotions - vulnerability, sincerity, and a touch of fear, perhaps of my reaction. It was in this moment that I saw the real Jacob, the man behind the boss, the man who wore his heart on his sleeve for me."I..." I started, my voice wavering slightly. I paused, collecting my thoughts. I wanted to respond to his honesty with my own "Jacob, I appreciate your honesty and... I care about you too. More than I've ever admitted before"His face softened at my words, a sense of relief washing over his features. The tension in his shoulders eased, and for a moment, he closed his eyes, as if to savor the moment.When he opened them again, his gaze was intense, burning with a raw passion that made my heart flutter "Rima" he whispered, reaching out to gently hold my hand. His touch was warm, a solid reassurance of his presence "I promise you, I will do everything in my

Jacob's POV In the realm of dreams, I was ensnared by visions of hazel eyes, gleaming with an intensity that sparked a fire within me. They were paired with lips, so full and hearty, they whispered promises of unspoken words and lingering touches. I dreamt of kissing her, the imagined taste of her lips intoxicating, making my heart pound with a rhythm that mirrored my yearning. My dreams were painted with images of touching her, tracing the contours of her form with a reverence that only heightened my desire. The sound of her voice, saying my name in the most sensual way, echoed in the depths of my subconscious, striking chords of longing that resonated throughout my being. I was like a teenager in the throes of puberty, unable to control the rush of newfound desires. The line between dream and reality blurred, the intensity of my longing for her manifesting in a physical response I couldn't ignore. My body reacted instinctively, growing more aroused as her i

Jacob’s POVAs we settled in to watch the film, I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment having her by my side.As the movie progressed, we fell into a comfortable silence, broken occasionally by our shared reactions to the unfolding story. It was an emotionally charged film, and I noticed Rima becoming more and more absorbed in it.One scene in particular seemed to resonate deeply with her - the heart-wrenching courtroom scene where Sam, portrayed brilliantly by Sean Penn, was fighting for custody of his daughter. The desperation, the love, and the fear in Sam's eyes were palpable, and it was impossible not to be moved by it.I glanced over at Rima and saw a single tear escape her eye, trailing down her cheek. She quickly wiped it away, but not before I noticed. It was touching to see her so affected, her empathy shining through.Without a word, I reached over and gently squeezed her hand, letting her know I was there and that it was

Our intimate dinner and movie night seemed like a distant memory as we plunged back into the relentless rhythm of work the following day.The atmosphere at the office had shifted subtly, the tense undercurrents replaced by a familiar ease. My boss had returned to his old self, the kind and considerate man I had known before. His acerbic edge had softened, his scoldings had ceased, and I was no longer subjected to the brunt of his unpredictable moods.The work was still grueling, the demands of our projects sapping my strength day by day. Yet, the return of my old boss, his kindness and understanding, somehow made the mountain of tasks more bearable.

Jacob’s POVI silenced the alarm on my phone and picked it up from the nightstand, leaning back against my pillow as I stifled a yawn.It was seven in the morning, and I tapped on Rima's name, needing to check on her. It was early, and she was likely still asleep, but my concern overrode any guilt I might have felt for waking her."Dammit Rima, I told you not to worry me like this" I muttered in frustration as I was met with an out-of-service message. In an instant, I was out of bed and heading towards the kitchen, intent on finding Tessa."Morning, Mr. Snow" Tessa greeted me brightly as I entered her line of sight. Her smile faltered as she took in my expression, instantly recognizing my concern. Travis, who had been quietly sipping his coffee at the kitchen counter, also stood up, sensing the tension in the room."Tessa, I need the spare key to Rima's apartment" I requested tersely. Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, but she didn't questio

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
