Andrei POV

The sound of her slap echoes through the room as I feel the sting on my cheek. I am shocked that she dared to raise her hand against me. No one has ever had the gut to do that.

I wait to feel the rage course through my vein, to pump my adrenaline to the level where I do something stupid but all I feel is a sickening calm in my chest.

Those damn eyes and quivering lips of hers. Those tears shimmering underneath her long dark lashes.

I was not known to tolerate such behavior, but with her, it feels different. She looks up at me defiantly like she is daring me to do something. I feel an emotion that I've come to recognize whenever I am with her. It was a raging turbulent passion that I'm finding hard to resist. It came so naturally to me to feel sparks sizzling across my skin whenever she cast those glares at me. The simple swipe of her tongue across her lip had me tightening in my pants. I feel uncomfortable trying to tame the beast roaring inside me, fighting to be freed.

The press was taking pictures, recording, and asking questions from the workers about their relationship. Selena knew it was all scripted because they only had good things to say about them. She made sure her smile looked genuine enough."So are you going to tell us your romantic story, Mrs. Andrei? I mean you were Mr. Andrei PA before he put a ring on it right" she singsong in a chirpy voice_an attempt on her part to lighten the tense atmosphere. Selena didn't appreciate it because it put her in the spotlight. She cleared her throat and then felt Andrei's hand which held hers, squeeze a little.She forced a wider smile, turning to gaze at Andrei."Well, we fell in love while working together. He was bossy, demanding, he wanted everything done perfectly, and let me tell you that did drive me a little crazy in the beginning, you all know what I mean" she joked.

I saved your life when you were wallowing in despair Selena, I bloody took care of you and this is how you fucking pay me back" he hissed finally letting his anger get the best of him. Selena frowned."We are family Jose, it was your responsibility or should I say obligation to do all those things for me. Why do you make it sound like I was a stranger you picked from the gutters" she said angrily feeling an odd gap in her chest that made it a little difficult to breathe.

I have never felt so weak and vulnerable in my entire life. With much difficulty, I turn on my side only to freeze as I see Selena slouching on the couch with her head falling forward, her hair obscuring her face from my view.A wet towel hangs between her nimb hand. Her grasp was light and it was slipping off as she slept.I rest on my elbow as I stare at her. Taking in every outline of her.I could still hear her voice ringing in my ears from last night. It tugged at something in my heart, making me feel like I was choking on something-foreign emotions.No one had ever panicked in that manner over me, not even my family.

    Selena felt the strain in her eyes. They were almost about to pop from their socket, going by the way she had been surprised at every turn throughout the day. What was he doing here? The utmost worry in her mind was getting him to leave before Andrei came back. She didn't want any trouble brewing, after their short moment of respite."Hi Selena" he muttered ignoring her question. His warm brown eyes scanned over her body in a way that would have had her heart fluttering in the past, but she only worried, too strung up on Andrei's words to even feel anything at the moment."Am sorry....but, this is not a good time Jayden. Why did you even come here?""You left me at our lunch date and you didn't even bother to reach me. Are you avoiding me now?". He accused, gazing at her warily.She frowned " of course not!

    Andrei stood beside the kitchen door and watched the two most important women in his life talk, laugh, and make dinner. Andria looked so happy and Selena seemed so content that he felt that his heart would burst. She turned around to face him as if she was attuned to his presence. Her lips formed in a pout as she saw him. He smiled at her because he was sure at this point that a certain way he smiled drove her crazy."Come on" she whined and he laughed. Andria turned to face him, finally noticing that they were not alone. "Andria, your brother is at it again...""Not on my watch... I know how y'all get in the kitchen. Now off you go Andrei, stop bothering us"."I'm not even doing anything, I just want to watch my wife cook and I'll help if you need me to do anything""No! you can't. you'll just be in the way of everything.

    SELENA'S POV."A little more to the side Andrei... Yeah like that, now look thoughtful"I smiled as I ordered Andrei around. Andrei rolled his eyes for the hundredth time and almost pouted as he followed my order. I had taken countless pictures of him already and why, because he looked hot once he put on his shirt and I needed a keepsake."This is such a nice view, Mr. Andrei Marko," I drawled in a flirty tone and give him a wink, and then he was striding over to me in an instant, and all I get out was a 'huh' before his arms went around my waist and then he was kissing me silly and I couldn't help but let go of the camera to grab at his white shirt. I made sure to squeeze it around my fingers because those ladies at his business meetings needed to know he was taken. He pulled away from me almost reluctantly and proceeded to give me another lingering kiss. I was breathless when he pulled away. I was also really aroused and I needed some respite from the build-up within me"You. Drive.

    Selena POV.It had been a week and I was already getting better in the hospital. I was surprised at how fast I recovered, but I was also worried. All through my stay here, Andrei hadn't shown up. Not even once, and I thought I would have preferred it that way, but it turned out that I hated it.I only saw him on the news as he followed up on the case and made sure the perpetrators got what they deserved. Jose was pretty much half dead from the way Andrei had beaten him up tho. His face had practically been damaged and I felt a little pity for him when I saw him on the news. He had been in a wheelchair and was aided to his court hearing. His mother kept screaming that they were innocent and that it was all my fault. I could not comprehend the extent of that woman's delusions.I was going to be discharged tonight and I appreciated the long stay I had at the hospital because I got the rest I needed.

I am not going to be a part of your madness" she shouted, tears spilling down her cheeks."I am not giving you a choice. I'm going to make you mine" he stated darkly as he rushed at her, trying to rip off her dress. Selena screamed and fought back as hard as she could, scratching him with her nail, hoping to gouge his eyes out.

    Andrei Mansion.Andria walked in and noticed the silence that invaded the whole building. She knew exactly where Andrei would be and walked towards the minibar. He was there clutching a glass of whiskey, judging by the empty bottles on the table, she could tell he'd drank a lot.He looked up at her, his eyes were a mixture of harsh remorse, he looked tired and miserable. Her heart tugged within her and she rushed towards him but she stopped when she noticed him stiffen at her approach.Andria looked around, but the quiet house was too eerie for anyone else to be around. She turned her gaze on her brother. "Andrei, where is Selena?" She asked tentatively.Andrei gazed up at her, his voice hoarse when he answered. "She left"Andria's brows furrowed. "What do you mean she left. I saw the news, I thought everything was already resolved"."I won't repeat myself, Andria. She's gone" he said in a hard tone and looked up at her."Why don't you go after her, maybe she was scared that you were

    Jose pushed the door open, ushering Selena into the house. They both stopped, noticing Jose's mother, who stood at the foyer to welcome them home. Mara smiled, moving towards Selena. "Such a beautiful child, Selena, I thought you'd never come for a visit." She scolded cheerily. Selena couldn't help glaring at her."Where is my father?" She asked, looking around the room. Mara was taken aback at her abruptness. Selena felt Jose shove the door close. He stood behind her probably communicating his mom with his eyes.The frown changed into forced laughter. "My, my, my Selena, what a very bad way to talk to your aunty"The term grated on her nerve. She wanted nothing to do with their insanity. "Aunty?" She murmured in disdain. The pain had receded on the drive and all she felt was anger and revulsion. "You're not my aunty, you're just a sick twisted woman" she yelled. Mara struck her across the face into silence, making her head snap to the side. She clutched at her cheeks in surprise, slo

    Selena POV.I am numb. Not the type where you can't feel your feet or hands, it was more psychological.I tried to make sense of what he said but I can't will myself to feel anything. Putting the pieces of information together had my head spinning.My father was alive and Jose had been keeping him, hostage, all this while even if he said otherwise. Even if he said that he rescued him from the prison when it had caught fire. If he truly did that, he wouldn't have kept it a secret, watching her suffer, without saying anythingMy heart ached.

    Selena gazed into his eyes, his soul bared to her, but it was vice-versa, she felt like he was looking deep into her heart. She bit on her lips as sudden nerves assailed her."You have feelings for me," he said, voice so raw it made her stomach twist until his expression hardened. " You're lying again"."Am not! .....Fine, believe what you want then. Do you think it is easy for me to admit that to you? Do you have an idea of how it feels? I know I'm betraying my father for feeling this way towards you. It's all your fault" she accused not breaking eye contact.His facial expression softened but the uncertainty on his face didn't completely disappear. He watched her closely as if trying to get into her head, to figure out what she was thinking."I want you to be with me," he said suddenly, his hand caressing her cheek like they were fragile precious stones."Why?" She asked, trying to focus on the conversation and not the sensation his touch ignited through her body."Because you make
