Vera I decided to explore our honeymoon suite. I walked around a bit and found a swimming pool.it was pollution outside with the best view the hotel had to offer I was busy admiring the way the sun rays back road against the blue duty of the pool when all of a sudden it's rose and Julius alighted from the pool his hair damn he's caused long to his head water droplets glistening all over his toned body making me go look at how gorgeous he looked.The way water droplets sparkled against his skin was the rays of the sun bouncing off the droplets made me mesmerized by how beautiful and gorgeous you looked before I could look away he had wiped of his face and was staring at my form.I actually shifted my waist from foot to foot then at everywhere but his glorious toned body. he just stared at me and I could tell that he was thinking about something but hadn't forced it out yet"Would you like to join me?" he asked, staring at me expectedly the childish innocence and excitement that his eye
I walked into the kitchen I stopped when I saw Julius sitted on one of the bar stools shirtless trying to treat his cuts and bruises.He had a cut at his cheek bone, bruises on his jaw and a cut on his lip.There was a deep cut at his upper arm that had dried blood at the opening.He looked up at me and continued his struggling to treat his wounds.I don't know why but I felt the need to go help him.Before I could double think I was already standing in front of him.He looked up at me as I gestured towards the cotton wool in his hand and he handed it to me adjusting to face me , giving me more access to his wounds.I took some antiseptic and started cleaning the blood around his cuts. He released a few grunts of pain so I started blowing little puffs of air each time I applied the antiseptic. He fell silent for a while and I looked up at him to see his fixated gaze at me.I kept my eyes trained on his wounds, ignoring the knot that formed in my chest from knowing he was staring at me
Vera's POVTo say I expected less from Julius would be like expecting a zebra to change his stripes.After our encounter he left me there. His words left a hole in my chest. It brought tears to my eyes every time I thought about it. I was now a prisoner and I don't think leaving was an option so I decided to accept my faith.Lexi had called and I told her everything."Why is he so obsessed with you not leaving the house?"She was just as confused as I was"I have no idea.And now I'm living like a prisoner""A rich prisoner with a drop dead gorgeous husband and two handsome hunks as friends.You have everything outside that home in it so why would you wanna go out?"I brought out the phone to check if it was Lexi I was actually talking to.When I was sure I held it back to my ear"Lexi!.You know I've always been the free type and this is so not what I'm used to.I feel like I'm suffocating"She was being such a Lexi"I can't talk to you right now.Bye"I put the phone down and sighe
Julius's POV"She just went inside boss"One of my men informed me from the other end of the phone"Okay.Just stay at your posts and keep me updated""Yes boss"I had installed security to keep a close eye on Vera.It's been easier ,seeing as she spends most of her time in the garden within my men's reach and eye range.Yes it may be creepy but I couldn't risk it.They may plan to ambush home while I'm at work ,although their attack will be futile. My house was built like a fortress but still, I couldn't take any risks.I couldn't risk her.I found it very difficult to do basically anything when I remembered I had kissed Vera last night under the influence.I wasn't heavily drunk,I remembered small pieces, but the kiss was the part I couldn't forget.I had no idea what she thought about me now.It would be so awkward now.I was stressing over it and not paying attention to work matters; why Cyrus decided to stay home yet again.He has been doing it alot lately and I'v been suspicious
Julius's POVI drove to the location Ludwick gave me.It was indeed the correct one.It was in a deserted part of the city.I drove close to the building and walked the rest of the way on foot as the path was too narrow for my car.I walked up to what I saw was a metal door filled with rust.There were two men standing at the doors.They looked at me and I raised a brow before they opened the door.I was led through the metal rooms and finally into a dark, open space.There was a table and chair situated at the extreme left of the room.There I saw who sat opposite.It was Ludwick"Oh Julius my good friend come in come in.Take a seat"I slid my hands into my pants pocket.I walked over and sat opposite him on a plastic chair.He was lucky the wood table seperated us or else I would have stabbed him by now.I kept a straight face as I stared at him"Don't be all cold with me now Julius "He smirked at me"Cut to the chase Ludwick.Where is she?""I get it your in a rush to see if your
Julius's POVI was keeping a very good eye on Cyrus and my suspicions were just being proved.He always left the office three hours earlier than he was actually meant to and went home.I had this feeling he was after Vera and it made me angry .I kept a close watch on the camera's in Vera's room.The motion censored cameras made sure I got the whole view of what she was doing.I watched her on my laptop in my office.She walked out of her bathroom in a towel as her wet hair clung to her face.She looked beautiful as she sat using her hair dryer to blow dry her hair.Her hair covered half of her face and it reminded me of the first time we met.I smiled as I watched her gracefully comb and tend to her soft hair as the memory of it's feel came back to me.She got up and started pulling off her towel and I started getting aroused so I shut the laptop as Aldonis walked in, looking at me weird."Why do you look like you were just caught doing something you were not supposed to?"He narrowed
Julius's POVWe decided the best thing was to have Vera with me at all times. We have to make sure she doesn't leave our sight.Knowing alot of people were going to be there, the chances she could secretly be attacked were very high. "Is everything ready?""Yes bossAll the men are downstairs dressed like guests they have eyes everywhere down there""We have to keep her safe no matter what-"We were waiting for Vera outside her door so we could go down together.I was cut short when her room door opened and she alighted looking absolutely gorgeous.She had on an emerald dress.Her hair was down in it's wavy glory and the curls bounced around.She had on gold stud ear ringsHer red glossy lip was being bitten on as she looked away shyly.And just then I realised I had been staring for some time .She came to me as her eyes were cast down at her feet.I tilted her chin up so her gaze met mine. I stared into her eyes as I tucked a bit of hair behind her ear and smiled at her."You lo
Vera's POV"Julius!"I held his lifeless body in my arms as I cried my eyes out ,and all of a sudden I was being pulled away from him as I tried my hardest to fight back but he faded away into the darkness."Julius!"I sat up with my hand stretched out.I had ragged breaths as my chest rose and fell.I was crying as a layer of sweat coated my forehead.I ran a hand through my hair as I tried to regulate my breathing .I blinked slowly. My eyes felt really heavy.Then it hit me!Julius! W-where is he!I looked around to see I wasn't in my room. Heck, I had no idea where I was. The room was beautiful yes but I couldn't recognise it The room door opened and mother came in with Mom and Mrs Juli.I sat at the edge of the bed and mom came to me."How are you sweetie?"She kissed my face and I held her hand"I'm fine mom""We were all so worried Vera""Where's Julius?"The three women exchanged looks between each other before they returned their trained looks to me."He's fine .You can s
