“My father called the other day to tell me to do something about the fact that there’s nothing out there about us. Well, there’s obviously nothing out there about us because there really is no ‘us’ and I’m stuck in here as well…” I pointed out.“So?” he said without a care.My hands clenched together tightly under the table on my lap as I suddenly had the urge to wrap my hand around his neck and wring it. For the life of me, I had no idea why he was acting like this was purely my problem and that he had absolutely nothing to do with this.“I’m sure that your father told you something similar. This isn’t an issue that can be solved by my actions alone. We need to work together on this one,” I proposed brightly as if I was proposing the idea of eternal worldwide peace.“You can count me out. If you think I should not stop you, then at least stop posting things that reference me or may expose the location of this place,” he said coldly.“Don’t you care about the plan going all wrong?” I
I didn’t want things to have to come to this, but it didn’t seem like I had any other choice. I had to go through with it and hopefully this man would keep his word.“Let’s do it. Let’s have sex,” I declared boldly.Bradon’s brows shot upwards before he cocked his head slightly to the side in disbelief. He clearly wasn’t expecting this sudden turn of events and neither did I. Before I could pause to think and change my mind, I began untying the sash around my waist and peeling the robe that I had on away from my body. I could feel him watching my every move, but I didn’t have the luxury of changing my mind anymore.“Did you come here with sex in mind?” he asked as his eyes travelled down my body before returning to my face and narrowing suspiciously at me.“Not really but I’m glad that I’m dressed for it…” I replied casually.He must have thought that I came to seduce him given the quite revealing nightgown that I had on. I guess this might count as dressing up nice and pretty for wha
“You can see him when he’s ready to see you,” he replied after a short moment where he seemed to consider my request seriously.I could sense his discomfort once again when I mentioned Anthony, but I couldn’t quite make out the reason why. That didn’t matter to me at all as long as I got what I wanted. It was so hard for me to believe that after all that I had been through that he was finally granting my wishes. Even though his agreement to all my demands seemed to come with conditions of his own, I was more than happy that we had reached an agreement. It occurred to me then that Bradon might not be as heartless and as unreasonable as I had originally thought. For once in what felt like a very long time, there seemed to be a ray of hope and a rainbow in the dark and cloudy sky that I called my current life.“Thank you…” I thanked him in a small mumble.To my thanks, Bradon just nodded his head slowly once. I bit down on the inside of my lower lip as I wondered if it would be pushing h
“No good reason. I’m just curious…” he replied casually.“Curious? You’re curious about what exactly?” I asked with widened eyes.Bradon stared at me with an unreadable expression for a few seconds before he let out a small chuckle as if an entertaining thought had just crossed his mind. Of course, I had no idea what he was thinking about or recalling.“I’m just curious to know what kind of woman I had the misfortune to marry,” he replied with a mischievous twinkle in his blue eyes.I always thought that his eyes were a very attractive color, but nothing could compare to their beauty when there were actual emotions reflected in them.“You mean, what kind of woman had the misfortune to marry you, right?” I corrected him immediately before I remembered to hold my tongue.“I take it that you’ve already agreed to my condition,” Bradon said before he smiled meaningfully at me.Right, that was probably a very Dahlia thing to say.I bit down on my lower lip to silence myself before I would s
“What?” I exclaimed in disbelief at his unexpected instruction.“Get off my lap,” he repeated coldly.That moment when he showed absolutely no interest made me feel that the grand castle that I had built might have been made entirely of sand and he was the high tsunami wave that threatened to destroy all of it in the blink of an eye. Instead of getting off, I pressed my hands against his chest and leaned closer to him until our faces were mere inches apart.“What are you saying?” I asked as I tried to keep my frustrations from showing.“Return to your seat, Dahlia,” he replied curtly.“What about our deal? You’re not going to back away now, are you?” I asked while refusing to climb off his lap.It looked like Bradon had changed his mind and all that we had planned to agree on would vanish rapidly down the drain along with all the effort that I had poured in. There was no way that I would accept that. The thought of rotting away in his large mansion with no end in sight scared me more
His lips prevented my lewd moans from leaking out as his hand slipped into the front of my nightgown to massage my breasts directly. I moaned into our kiss as my hips began moving on his lap. The burning heat in my core felt unbearable and I knew that I my pussy had already gotten so wet from the way that he was stimulating my body. Bradon’s other hand cupped the side of my hips before he began stroking it. The thin satin fabric of my nightgown did nothing to shield my body from his touch and it wasn’t long before his hand slipped beneath the hem of my nightgown to caress the side of my hip and my upper thighs directly.“Ahh…Bradon…” I moaned breathlessly in pure bliss.The way he was touching me and everything that he was making me feel made me wonder if I was the one seducing him into this or if I was the one being seduced, tempted, and then trapped. I quickly decided that it no longer mattered as long as we both got what we wanted out of this.“Lift your hips a little…” he instruct
I wasn’t sure who was more eager to free his cock from his pants between him and myself. My pussy hole felt so empty now that he had withdrawn his fingers and I couldn’t wait to fill it with something much hotter, longer, and thicker. I stared down at the massive upstanding poll that I had just freed as it sprang into my awaiting hands. Frankly, his size and hardness never failed to impress me. His cold nature, bad mood swings, and unsocial personality aside, I had to admit that we were very compatible when it came to sharing pleasures of the flesh.“It’s so hard…” I murmured admiringly as I ran my fingertips up and down the extensive length of his cock.His dick felt hot, and I could feel it quivering slightly as I teased it with my fingertips. It truly felt so alive and very potent at the same time. The more I stared at it, the more I felt like the swollen thick head of his cock was staring back at me.“Put my cock inside you, Dahlia…” he commanded with slight impatience.I nodded b
My hips moved as if it had suddenly inherited a life and will of its own. Faster and harder, I bounced my hips up and down to ride his cock. My pussy rubbed the entire length of his cock up and down while I moaned from the pleasure of his thick member hitting deep and hard inside of me.Using my body weight and the blessing of gravity as my allies, I slammed my hips down onto his cock. I rode him hard and wild just like what he wanted me to do. I moaned and cried out his name in pure ecstasy when his cock rammed upward against my womb. My mind felt hazy and intoxicated with pleasure. I realized soon enough that no matter how fast I moved my hips it just didn’t seem to be enough.“Bradon…Ahh…” I called his name pleadingly as my hands gripped his shoulders.“You’re doing well,” he commented before his beautiful lips curved upward slightly into a smile.I slammed my hips down onto his cock again before letting out a lewd moan. My breasts jiggled up and down as I rode his cock even faster
I needed to leave him and as soon as possible, but I didn't know how I could achieve that. My past experiences have taught me quite directly that I couldn't truly run away from Bradon. Escaping from the mansion was unquestionably impossible. I could not run away, so that meant that I needed to get Bradon to agree to let me leave. My legs already felt weak, and I wanted nothing more than to crawl into bed and shut my eyes to escape reality. I knew that I needed to talk to Bradon about ending our fake marriage as soon as possible, although I had no idea how to bring up the topic. Something told me that it might prove to be difficult to get Bradon to agree, and there was always a risk that he might react unpredictably.However, if everything he did was simply him just acting out his role and his feelings for me didn't truly exist, then that might be the solution to all of my problems. If he felt no attachment to me, then he should have no problem letting me go just as planned. After all
The party ended early, yet it was quite eventful, at least for Bradon and myself. I felt like there was a storm raging inside of me all the while that we rode back to his mansion. It felt like there was something right at the tip of my tongue that I wanted to say, but yet I couldn't bring myself to say it. There were times when I thought that I fully understood myself and what I wanted, and yet at the very same time, I felt so confused and lost. The feelings that were struggling to take dominance inside of me did not make sense, and it made me feel as if my thoughts and my feelings were heading in the direct opposite direction of one another.Bradon's words of defiance as he confronted my father came back to me loud and clear:"Dahlia is not your daughter anymore, and neither am I one of the Vulkans. I will never let you take my wife..."I should have known that entering into this contract marriage with Bradon, while taking my sister's place, would somehow lead to blurring the line be
"But..." I mumbled, but I could not bring myself to say anything else when my eyes met his. His beautiful lips curved into a teasing smile, and there was a certain sparkle in the depths of his eyes that captivated my attention. That was when I knew that although he probably disapproved of what I had just done, there was a part of him that was actually quite pleased. I found myself smiling sweetly back at him like I was some fool."You hit me? You vile bitch! I'm your father. I raised you!" my father screamed at me at the top of his lungs. Apparently, I wasn't the only one who had forgotten where we were and the fact that we were surrounded by other high-profile guests who were attending the party."Dahlia, how could you do something like that? How could you hurt your father? We never raised you to become like this," my mother said, with clear disappointment and shock on her facial features."Really? Because here I honestly thought that I was already disowned. Well, to be more accurate
I was certain that just as many people hated her and blamed her for going against societal norms, there were probably just as many people who admired her, either openly or secretly as her fans. Perhaps to them, our sisterly duo act was the spice they needed in their endlessly boring lives."Don't you feel better from just seeing how everyone is welcoming us with open arms?" Diana continued before she raised her hand to wave at someone that she knew."Fine. I admit that you got your point across," I said as my eyes scanned the crowd that had gathered for the party. I could feel Bradon tensing at my side, and I knew that he had just spotted the two people that I least wanted to see at that moment. "Did you know about this?" I turned to ask Diana without hiding my shock."That they'll be here? I guess not, but why does it matter? You'd have run into them sooner or later. If you ask me, the sooner the better," Diana said with a careless shrug of her shoulders.I narrowed my eyes as I gla
"You should go to bed," Bradon told me the moment that we stepped into the mansion. I knew that his suggestion was spot on because sleep was exactly what I needed to deal with what was to come. The media and everyone had undoubtedly gone wild as they both communicated and speculated on what was the truth and what were twisted lies from all the events that happened in the past that I shared with my sister.I switched off my phone when it wouldn't stop vibrating, without bothering to read the caller ID on the screen. I could already guess who would be calling me and also exactly what they had to say."It feels like my head is ready to explode," I confessed before smiling weakly at Bradon."Which is precisely why you should stop thinking or caring about anyone else and just get some shut-eye," Bradon said as he peeled away the mobile phone that I held in my hand. I let him do so without putting up any resistance because all I wanted to do was crawl into bed and hide under the sheets wit
"My name is Diana, which can only mean that the Diana standing over there is, in fact, my twin sister, Dahlia. In fact, for the past months, I wasn't present, and the Diana that you knew had always been my sister acting out in my place," Diana explained as if it was something to be proud of.The crowd went wild, but I decided to focus my attention on the two figures that seemed so intent on ruining my life along with my sister’s. Our father had officially become our enemy, and at that moment, he looked like he might have started to regret pushing both of us over the edge. Mr. Malton, who, after all this time, clearly never regretted his actions and never realized that he should have been man enough to take responsibility. I was certain that even now, he was willing to destroy our reputation and our future—all for the sake of the money undoubtedly promised to him by our father. Desperate times truly call for desperate measures; that applied to our father but also to us as well.I could
I found myself praying silently that Desmond could bring everything under control, but my prayers probably fell on deafened ears. Instead of Desmond stepping up to the podium, it was my sister who approached it instead."What is she doing?" I asked in a shaky whisper as I felt myself breaking into a cold sweat. It felt like my eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as I continued staring in bewilderment and disbelief at my sister, who stood with a beautiful smile behind the podium, the microphone very close to her lips. I turned to stare at Desmond and managed to lock gazes with him. I could tell that he was staring right back at me, and the way he nodded his head reassuringly was supposed to bring me some relief and keep me at ease, but it only made me even more nervous.I could tell that everyone in the crowd was staring daggers at my sister, even from where I was standing. It wasn't surprising, considering that everyone thought Diana was me. It felt like tight knots had formed
Back to the present"Homewrecker! Homewrecker! Homewrecker!"The violent chanting continued and began seeping into my consciousness, dragging me back to the present. Disaster seemed to be staring me right in the face."Leya..." Bradon whispered my name right beside my ear.His presence close to me reminded me that, unlike that day back then, I wasn't alone. I had Bradon by my side, and, on top of that, everyone was here with me: Desmond and my sister. I suddenly felt a surge of confidence that made me believe that there could be a way out, one that would save us all from this dire situation my father had plotted against us.I had to admit that after leaving the country, I hadn't spared much thought for what would unfold after my departure. I never took care to follow up on any news-not that they would be made public-related to Mr. Malton's wife and child. I had no idea what happened to him or his family after that incident. My parents completely cut me off, and there was frankly no on
"What have you done? Have you completely lost your mind?" my father yelled at me immediately when our family was gathered in private. His face was completely red with anger as his voice echoed in the room. My mother looked like she was on the verge of tears, and I could tell that she was more worried about our family rather than her own daughter. "News of your ridiculous and scandalous behavior is now all over the place!" my father continued yelling. As if to drive his message home, his mobile phone began ringing non-stop. One glance at the name displayed on the screen drove my father to the brink before he switched off the phone and threw it onto the floor. My mother let out a scream at my father's sudden violent outburst before sinking down onto the sofa as if she had lost all strength in her body.I took the opportunity to slowly take a seat, and Diana was by my side in an instant. I knew that the best way to brave out this storm was to keep quiet and not let his words get to me.
