Sophie’s POV
“Miss Sophie, which wedding gown here would you like to wear?” asked the bridal stylist to me as the maids keep on bringing different wedding gowns.
I looked at the gowns without any emotion on my face. “You can just choose for me.”The stylist looked surprised. “O-Okay, Miss Sophie. I think the first one would look good on you.”“Okay.”I’m going to marry a man that I don’t even love. I’ve been dreaming about getting married since I was a kid. I don’t care if it’s simple; I don’t care what place we’re going to get married at, and I don’t even care what gown would I wear as long as my groom is the man that I truly love. I’ve always dreamed of having a happy, loving family, but I don’t think I would still be able to have that.The stylists permed my hair and turned it into a messy bun where some strands of it were falling on thSophie’s POV“This will be our house from now on,” said Vincent as he opened the door of the mansion where he took me after our wedding. It was a new mansion near the school where I’m studying at and the one where I work. It actually has no difference with the one where our wedding was held. It has high-ceiling, glass walls and gigantic crystal chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. Guards are everywhere in the house. There were maids, I think they are more than fifty, oh, and there were personal chefs too. “Why did we have to move here?” I asked him while we were eating our dinner.“Because it’s closer to your university. Don’t you want that since you told me that you still want to work and study?”“Y-Yes, thank you for considering it.”“Tomorrow, Venom will go with you at your school. She will stay by your side throughout the day until you go home.” He said again.I no
Sophie’s POVJust when Vincent was about to kiss me, his phone started ringing. “Fuck.” He cursed before moving away from me and reached for his phone inside his pocket.I immediately ran away and went straight to the walk-in closet. I leaned on the door as soon as I was able to lock it from inside. I was breathing heavily while tears keep on running down my face. That was close… That demon almost raped me…What should I do? I’ll be living with him in this house from now on. I don’t think I could escape from him forever. If I will stay with him here, I don’t think I would still be able to survive. That man is evil.***“Why did you sleep inside the closet?” Vincent asked me while we were having our breakfast.I averted my gaze. “I just fell asleep there.”“You fell asleep, or you were hiding from me?”“Vincent
Sophie’s POVI felt my chest tightened as I watched Mr. Jacobs sitting on his swivel chair inside the infirmary. I’ve been watching him for the longest time, I’ve been loving him ever since to the point that I thought I could marry him someday and build a happy family with him, but those were all my dreams. And as usual, dreams don’t really come true. “Sophie?”I flinched when he suddenly looked at me. My heart started beating crazily just by hearing him utter my name. “M-Mr. Jacobs.”“Do you need something?” he asked as he stood up. He walked towards me with a sweet smile on his face.“Er… N-No. I-I just want to give you something.”He tilted his head sideward. He just doesn’t know how cute he gets whenever he does that.“Give me something? What is it, Sophie?”I showed him the can of coffee that I bought fro
Sophie’s POV“What took you so long?” I was surprised when I suddenly saw Vincent standing by the door of my room.“W-What are you doing here?” I asked him.He looked at me with cold eyes. “Did you go somewhere else?”“S-Sorry, I-I just talked to a friend for a while.”“I told you to go home as soon as your class is done, right?”I bit my lower lip. “S-Sorry…”“Sophie, you’re not here just to have a life of a princess. I didn’t marry you just so you could live the way you want and disobey my orders.”“I-I’m sorry. That would never happen again.”“That would really never happen again because if you repeat that, I will no longer let you study or work. You’ll stay inside this mansion forever.”“W-What? N-No, please don’t do that Vincent!”
Sophie’s POV“Checkmate,” Vincent stated after winning our first ever game.“H-How did you do that? I thought you’re—“Gold Medalist in international chess competition since second grade.” He blurted.My mouth went agape. “W-What?!”“Now, shall I think of a part of you I want to conquer?” he said while scanning my whole body with his deep cold grey eyes.My heart started beating so fast while waiting for him to have his decision. It startled me when he suddenly moved closer to me and smelled my neck. “W-What are you doing?!”“Maybe I’ll just have this part for now.” He mumbled.“M-My neck?!—V-Vincent!”He suddenly kissed my neck, and it brought me a weird feeling that felt like my whole body was being electrified by his lips. I put my right hand on his hair to stop him. “P-Please&
Vincent’s POVGin opened the door of the hotel suite and I started walking in. I looked around the room. It was as huge as the suite that I used to stay in whenever I want to have a one-night stand with a woman. “That old man really has the money, huh? But he can’t even pay his debt to me?”“I’ve heard he owns this hotel, boss,” Joe said.We suddenly heard moans and heavy breaths coming from the bedroom. I smirked. “Looks like the old man still feels horny, huh?”“Long time no see, Mr. Tremont.’ I greeted the man in his 40s currently on top of a young escort that was just my age.They both got surprised and immediately moved away from each other upon seeing me. Tremont stood up, naked. His eyes were big. “V-Vincent!”“Having a good time? Looks like you’re enjoying fucking some other girl while your poor wife’s busy running your business."&
Sophie’s POV“I won again.” A cocky smile appeared on Vincent’s lips.Damn this game, how can I even win against him?!“Now, come here.” He suddenly commanded.I was hesitant, but then I couldn’t disobey his order. He could kill me anytime, anyway. I stood up and sat beside him on the couch. He leaned closer to me while looking straight into my eyes. My heart started beating fast as he drew me closer and closer to him. “I will take this tonight then.” I flinched when he suddenly started caressing the outside edge of my ear with his lips.“V-Vincent…”“You tied your hair up tonight, maybe you really wanted me to take this part of you.” He whispered, and I felt his breath which brought an instant hot sensation on both of my ear and neck.“W-What are you saying? — Oh!”A loud moan escaped my lips when Vincent sta
Sophie’s POV“Sab.”Sabrina looked at me with her mouth full of the sandwich that she was eating. “Huh?”“Do you know how to play chess?”“Chess?”“Yeah?”She drank some juice before speaking again. “Honey, I’m not even interested in studying, what more in the game of chess.”I sighed.“Why? What’s about the game of chess that makes you stress?”“Vincent.”“You’re playing chess with the mafia boss?”“Yeah.”Sabrina laughed. “Oh my God, Sophie! Are you serious? That dude knows how to play chess?”“He’s a gold medalist when he was in second grade.”“What?! So, he’s that good at playing it?!”I nodded. “He always defeats me. I couldn’t even win a single game against him.”
********SIX YEARS LATER************* SOPHIE'S POV "Mommy, he's already here! Daddy already parked his car!" Callen said to me while peering out the window. I looked at Venom and Sabrina. "Please, turn off the lights." The lights turned off. No one was speaking until Vincent finally opened the door. "Sophie? Callen? Candace? Where are you? What is--- The lights turned on again and as soon as that happened, we all yelled, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, VINCENT!!" He got surprised upon seeing all of us, but then he smiled. "You scared me, I thought Sophie ran away with our twin." "We will never do that, daddy," Candace said as she walked towards her dad and gave him a hug. Callen also went near him, so he lifted both of them in his arms. "Thanks to all of you. You may now eat and do whatever the hell you want." As soon as Vincent said that, everyone started screaming and yelling. Then they went to the pool and st
SOPHIE'S POVDon't be so nervous, Sophie. This is your wedding day.I kept on mumbling to myself while the stylists were dressing me up a few hours before the wedding.This is finally the day.The day that I have been dreaming to happen ever since."Oh my God, Sophie! You look dashing as ever! You are the most beautiful bride that I have ever seen in my life!" Sabrina cooed as soon as she entered my dressing room."Well, thank you so much, Sab. You look stunning, too." I said while smiling at her.Then the door went open again and mom and Venom came in."Mommy, Venom!""Sophie, honey. You look so beautiful!" mommy said to me after hugging me."Thank you so much, mommy. I feel really nervous now."She looked at me and pat my shoulders. "There's no need for you to feel nervous, honey. You are finally getting married to the man you truly love so all you should feel is happiness and excitement. And anyway, all of u
SOPHIE'S POV"I'm so sorry I'm late, Sophie. I just encountered a noisy woman on my way here." Lance said to me as soon as he sat on the chair in front of me."Noisy woman?""Yes. Anyway, I don't want to talk about that stranger anymore. Wait, did you just cry?"I wiped the tears from my eyes. "I just cried because I am so happy.""May I know the reason? Is it because your wedding is already next week?""That's one of the reasons. But Vincent just told me that his father is going to attend our wedding next week." I said while smiling at him."Really? That's cool then! For sure, V's going to be so happy.""I know he already is. I know he got so surprised, but I'm sure that he's so happy right now. Especially now that he finally found his real father.""That's right. I'm so happy for him, too."Lance and I just talked about some random things while eating that we lost track of time. He also sent me home."Tha
VINCENT'S POVI was busy drinking my wine inside my bar, together with my men as our celebration for Sophie and I's wedding next week."Boss, are you finally going to quit being our boss?" Gin, one of my men, asked me.I looked at him, then I put my glass above the table. "I want to give all my time to Sophie and to our future kids. I don't want them to live a miserable life and fear my enemies attacking us every single time.""We understand you, boss. We are happy for you, too.""You can just call me Vincent now," I said.They all looked at each other before looking at me again."We can never do that, boss. No matter what happens, you will always be our boss." Joe said to me.I gave them a smirk, then I raised my glass of wine. "Let's celebrate my wedding with the woman I love, and for winning our encounter against our enemies last week. We no longer have our enemies now, so you can all have your own life now, not us mafias, b
LANCE'S POV"Where did you go, Lance?"I got surprised when I saw my mom sitting on the couch in my living room as soon as I entered.I looked at her. "Mom, you're here. I just went to a boutique.""Boutique?""I went to a group fitting with Vincent's men." I said while smiling. I could still remember what happened a while ago.Mom stood up and furrowed her brows at me. "Fitting for what?""Vincent and Sophie are getting married next month.""What?""You don't know about that yet?"She shook her head. "No. But why are they getting married?""Mom, of course, because they love each other.""I wonder what your brother used to threaten that gullible woman again. For sure he did something or maybe she threatened her that he'll kill her family if she didn't---"Mom!"Mom looked at me. "What?""Can you even hear what you're saying? We're talking about Vincent here, my brother, and your
VINCENT'S POVI parked my car in front of Lance's house. Sophie made me promise yesterday that I should talk to him and our parents about our wedding. That's why here I am."G-Good evening, S-Sir Vincent..." one of his maids greeted me."Where's Lance?""He's inside his library, Sir."I nodded as I entered his mansion. I went straight to his library and there I saw him drinking whisky alone."May I join you?"He shifted his gaze at me and furrowed my brows upon seeing me. He looked surprised, but then he just shrugged and beckoned me to sit on the chair next to him. Since there was only one glass there on the table, I just drank the whiskey directly from its bottle."Want to play chess?" I got surprised when he asked me."Sure."He then stood up and brought his chessboard as he sat back in his chair again."What should we make a bet on?" I asked him when I was finally done arranging the pieces."Soph
SOPHIE'S POV"Sophie, are you sure about this? Don't you want me to accompany you there?" Vincent asked me as soon as we finally arrived in front of Miss Felestine's house.I nodded my head. "I can do this by myself, Vincent. You still have to talk to your parents and your brother, remember?""Are you sure?""Of course, I am.""Alright, I love you.""I love you more."We kissed each other before I finally stepped out of his car.I took a deep breath as I started walking inside Miss Felestine's mansion. The maids and butler greeted me."May I know where Miss Felestine is?" I asked one of the butlers."She's inside her office upstairs, Miss Sophie. I can take you there. Please, follow me.""Okay."And as he told me, I just followed him until we reached Miss Felestine's office. I had to take a deep breath a few times before I finally had the courage to open the door."M-Miss Felestine..."
SOPHIE'S POVI woke up without Vincent beside me. I roamed my eyes around the room, but I didn't find him."Vincent?"I got off the bed and picked up my clothes on the floor and wore it.Where did he go?I suddenly remembered that first time something between the two of us. He also left me inside my room.Did he do it again?Did he leave me again?I was about to open the door to go out when someone opened it."V-Vincent!""Where are you going?" He asked me as soon as he stepped inside the room holding a tray of food.I looked at him. "I-I thought you already left me..""And why would I leave you here?""I-I just thought you--"Come on, sit right there. We'll have our breakfast."He walked towards the round table and put the food that he brought. He then sat on the couch and looked at me."Sit on my lap. I'll feed you.""Huh?""Sit here." He said, tapping his
SOPHIE'S POVWe were both panting when we moved away from each other. I immediately lie down on the bed while closing my eyes."Are you tired now?" Vincent suddenly asked me."My lips feel numb."I heard him chuckle. "I was the only who kiss you so why would that feel numb?""H-Hey, I kissed you back too!""Right, but I was the one who did all the work."I gave up. I just heaved and looked at him. "What else do you want me to do? Are we going to finally sleep?""No, we're not done yet. I didn't bring you here for just a kiss.""Vincent...""I want you try make love to me, Sophie. I want you to ride me." He whispered in a husky voice while staring right into my eyes.Heat captivated my whole body upon hearing that from him. He wasn't smiling when he said that, so I know that he was dead serious.I wasn't able to speak for a while.Then all of a sudden, Vincent leaned his head on the headboard a
