The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 019
Christina’s POVAunt Eunice’s eyes met mine and I saw the knowing look in them and it made me bow my head in mortification as my gaze fell to the floor. My heart was still palpitating wildly and I was still heaving from what had almost happened.He was so close, I could smell his minty breath and the scent of his cologne dominated my nostrils. Somehow, it soothed me and my gaze was fixed on his intense icy orbs as though I was in a trance and I couldn’t bear to look away from him. If his aunt hadn’t interrupted when she did, I had no doubts his lips would have been on mine and I could have let him kiss me.That was the most devastating part. I could have let my guard down and let him kiss me. This realisation was alarming and it had my heart beating fast. It felt as though for a moment, I forgot the circumstances of our relationship, and it was like all that had happened between us was only a faraway memory. It felt like we were in a different time and space, and the sensual promises

Christina’s POVThe smug expression on his face infuriated me. I knew he was right but it wasn’t my intention to lie to his aunt. It was all his doing, hence, it should be his problem, not mine. He pulled me into his room in the guise of dressing my wound. My gaze darted around in search of the first aid box that he intended to use and I found it, sitting on the sofa.Hurriedly, I rushed to it and grabbed the box. He stared at me in question, with no clue as to what I was getting at but then I walked to the door and smiled.“You’re the one who engineered the lie, so it’s a ‘you’ problem,” with a triumphant smile on my face, I sauntered out of his room down the hallway into mine. I glanced at him from my doorstep, to see he was staring at me, an unreadable expression etched on my face but it only widened my smile at my little victory. I got into my bedroom and closed the door as silently as I could so as not to alert Aunt Eunice to my presence. I’d almost forgotten how different my ro

Christina’s POVI stared hard at the door, with his words ringing in my head, long after he was gone. It was hard to believe that Scott had said those words to me. What was happening? Why was he suddenly so nice? Firstly, he nursed me back to good health and transformed my bedroom into a mini library with my favorite books and now he wants to act out the fantasy I’d shared with his aunt. It was all too much for me and the more I thought about this new side of him, the more confused I became. All I was used to was the brooding businessman who saw me as nothing more than a business transaction he had to deal with for a year. What has changed him? Or was this to lure me enough to want to have his child? These thoughts scared me because I hadn’t done any research to prevent pregnancy. If he keeps going this way and finally gets me where he wants me, I’d be doomed with no preparations to escape his claws.I shook my head and rose to my feet, determined to not let his few acts of kindness

Christina’s POVMy heart skipped. He was serious. He was playing into the silly fantasy I revealed to his aunt. I stared at his text, with no words to respond. I swallowed and my eyes darted to see Aunt Eunice impatiently waiting for me to fill her in.“He wants to take me on a date,”“That’s lovely, honey. You should be excited!”I feigned a smile but my insides were a mess. Was he purposely messing with me?“Come on, honey. We’ve got a date to prepare for. I need to take you to the best salon in town to get your hair fixed. He needs to be blown away when he sees you,” She winked at me as she giddily rose to her feet and reached for my arm.Slowly, I pulled my chair back and rose to my feet with the bag in hand but Adams, who'd been standing by all along, came to take it from me. His aunt tugged on my arm, leading me to the house, where she got her purse, and together, we took one of the cars in the garage with a guard following us. At first, I expected Adams to object, considering I

Scott’s POVI checked to make sure the blindfold was in place before reaching for her arm to pull her around. At first, she was still and wouldn’t move but I squeezed her arm softly.“Relax, and let me lead you, little fairy,” My words were calm and they did the magic as I tugged on her arm and she blindly let me lead her out of the house, towards the waiting car, with the chauffeur ready to drive us to our destination. I got the door for her and helped her in then I rounded the car to get. The engine roared to life the moment we were settled and the car pulled out of the vast compound.“S-scott, where are you taking me?” Her words came out in a quivering voice and I heard the hint of fear in them but I reached for her palm and linked my fingers to hers, lightly caressing the inside of her palm.I noticed the moment she released a shaky breath and her glossy lips parted slightly. I stared at her gorgeous face, and her parted lips. They looked so sensual and kissable that it was taking

Scott’s POVI saw the way her cheeks heated up from the pet name I’d picked up due to her looks, some time ago. It sounded so intimate but I couldn’t think of a better way to address her. She was petite and looked so enchanting like the fairies in the fairytales I’d heard, as a kid growing up.A throat cleared and we both looked up to see Keller smiling at us.“I’d hate to be the third wheel here. So tell me what you want and I’ll get it done, while I leave you lovebirds alone to enjoy your evening, and luckily for you, I’m in the mood to overwhelm my top fan. So you get a three course meal, my lady, all prepared my me,”“Really?”“Anything for a beauty like you,” again he winked and I tried not to think too much into his words.“Umm… I don’t know. I’m too excited to think properly, but I wouldn’t want to stress you so maybe something simple?”“That’s fine but I have an idea. How about simple Potato skin bites for appetisers, grilled teriyaki chicken for the main course and cream chee

Christina’s POVFor the rest of dinner, I kept to myself, for lack of what to say but it wasn’t long before Mr. Briggs returned with my packed dessert. He directed a smile at us as he gently placed the package on the table.“I was told you’re set to leave, hence, I decided to bring this here, myself. I hope you enjoyed your meal?”“It was wonderful, Mr. Briggs, and it’s been such an honor to meet you,” I smiled at him, my excitement returning. I had no idea how Scott got to know of my little fantasy to meet with Chef Briggs but it made my evening and I didn’t know how to thank him for it. He’s been so sweet all evening, despite the cold reminder that I was still bound by his contract with my dad.“I’m glad I made your evening,” He winked and directed his attention to Scott, who had been quietly watching us, an unreadable expression etched on his face. “I’m sure you enjoyed your evening too, Reid,”“Of course, she made my night,” Scott’s lips tilted in a smile that didn’t quite reach

Christina’s POVI stepped out of the bathroom to see him standing in the middle of the room, with a bottle of water in his hand. I didn’t have to ask to know what it was_my medications.I walked to the sofa and gently placed my dress on it before moving to him to take them. He motioned to me to open up as he popped a pill into my mouth and gave me water to drink. Thereafter, he led me to the desk where the first aid box was sitting and pulled out the chair for me.I watched him bring out all of the things he’d need to dress my wound but when he tilted my head to begin, I touched his arm, meaning to stop him. His questioning gaze landed on mine.“You don’t… you don’t have to, I can do it myself,”“I want to,” I dropped my arm to let him continue. He was gentle just like the first time, and held me still so I wouldn’t move to disrupt him as he took off the plaster and began cleaning it. The way he was so gentle with it made me reflect on how different he’s been in the past few days and

Scott’s POVThe trees and scenery around us passed in a blur as we sped down the forest road that led to Vincenzo’s home. As soon as he’d told us how to exit the property, I’d carried Christina in my arms and sped down the hallway, ready to evacuate the premises without second thoughts, or even a glance back at the unfolding chaos. At that moment, it was as though I had just one mission to take Christina to safety. Just as Vincenzo had said, the car was waiting at the back, with the engine running, and the doors opened. We got in and the driver took to the wheels, speeding out of the compound. Behind us, was another of Vincenzo’s security detail, to keep us safe.Christina was sitting across from me but I still couldn’t look at her, for fear that I might find an injury or even as little as a bruise that would show she was hurt, and bring back the ugly reality of what could have happened, if we had been just a minute late.My hand that was holding hers gripped it tightly, unwilling to

Christina’s POVTen minutes earlierI stepped out of the stall, ready to head back to the party, despite my nerves still reeling from the embarrassment of the little show Scott and I had unintentionally put on for the audience. A wry smile crossed my face as I stared at the mirror while washing my hands. My makeup was still in place and so was my hair. I playfully winked at myself and turned away, ready to head back but before I could take a step, soft moans of pleasure sailed into my ears and I was frozen in place.I stood there, silently hoping I’d heard wrong but then they came again, this time a bit louder, followed by a throaty moan. My head instantly whipped in the direction they were coming from, the first stall. It was five stalls away from where I was but that didn’t stop their moans from reaching me. I couldn’t help the giggle that slipped out of my lips but I quickly slapped a palm over my mouth to not alert them of my presence.It felt like I was in high school all over ag
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 057
Scott’s POVI took her soft lips in mine, not caring about the gloss nor the red tint of her lipstick that would stain my lips. All I wanted was to have a taste of her, to feel her warm body in my arms, the way she holds on to me like she’s holding on for dear life, while she melts into the kiss. It’s purely magical. By the time we pulled apart, she was breathless, heaving with her soft eyes fixed on mine. They were mesmerizing and I just couldn’t look away. We stood in that position, staring at each other, with one of my arms wound tightly around her slender waist, and the other resting on the nape of her neck.Her eyes darted to my lips and she chuckled lightly.“I’ll leave that as a mark to let the ladies know you’re taken,” She grinned, with gleaming eyes and I smiled, indulging her.“And I wouldn’t mind wearing your mark, my love,” I winked at her before I leaned down to claim her lips one more time.This time, a knock interrupted us, followed by the words of one of the maids.“S
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 056
Christina’s POVI woke up to a strong arm wrapped around my waist and the heat of his warm body sipping into mine. At first, I felt a bit lost until all the previous night's events began flooding into my head and I realized what I’d done. I’d given in to my desires at long last. I’d given myself to him just like he’d predicted and I’d done it without caution. I’d willingly let him plant his seed in me.With so many thoughts crowding my head all at the same time, all I wanted was to bolt out of bed and be far away from him. I needed to handle this. I had no idea what to do. Was this even in the plans? I allowed pleasure to blur the lines between what I truly wanted, my plans to escape, and giving into this sick plan of his with my father. My heart squeezed painfully at the thoughts of giving up and playing into this sick fantasy.What was wrong with me?I was only meant to put up an act for the weekend and I let him get the best of me. Now he’d be able to mock me with it. Bile rose in
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 055
Christina’s POVIt happened so fast that before I could comprehend what was going on, he’d caged me to the sink with his body pressed tightly to mine and his lips on mine. His eyes were closed with an expression of ecstasy etched on his face, as he kept kissing me. When he noticed I wasn’t returning his kisses, his eyes finally opened, and they met with mine, staring into them with his lips slightly parted, and his chest heaving from his almost silent pants.I could see the question in his eyes, and the look in them was enough to melt all of my remaining barriers. But not just that. There was something about his expression that I couldn’t put my hands on but it mirrored a deep hunger and need, one that needed to be sated urgently and the realization that it was all for me, had my lower abdomen twisting and curling with want. He looked messy but yummy at the same time, and all I wanted was to get my hands on him.He may have seen something else in my eyes from my silence because when

Christina’s POV“I’m sorry I made you feel that way,” His eyes burrowed into mine as he said the words and I could see the sincerity in them. Deep down, I truly wished he was being genuine this time. He reached for my palm that was resting on the bench and covered it with his. “I’m willing to work on myself to make things work, if you can give me another chance,”“This would be the last,” I tried to sound stern just to get him to understand and see that I wasn’t playing around.“Thank you, my lady,” He mimicked a slight bow and a smile slipped onto my face.Since our arrival, I’m beginning to see that he had a wholesome personality when he wasn’t being an asshole. So yes, maybe we could make things work and I had a good feeling about this one.“Wanna see something else?” a wry grin stretched his lips, and I narrowed my eyes at him, wondering what else there is to see in this property. It seemed we were already at the end and it definitely couldn’t get bigger than this, could it? He r
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 053
Scott’s POVI rose to my feet, took her arm in mine and led her to my side. I proceeded to plant a kiss on her temple, while still smiling. For a second, she stilled, but glanced at me with a questioning look in her eyes.“If I’d known horses would make you this happy, I’d have gotten some and built you a stable from the very first day,”She rolled her eyes as though she was calling my words a bluff and I had the slightest urge to spank her ripe ass and I did just that, feeling its softness in my arms but she gasped in shock but didn’t make any move to step away. Instead, she glanced around with widened eyes, lips popped open in surprise and a deep crimson colour of mortification on her cheeks.“You…” She tried scolding me but I winked at her and linked my fingers to her as I started towards the main building.“Where… I thought you’d take me to the stables…” she objected, refusing to move but I turned to explain.“Unless you don’t mind me reeking of dried sweat, then I’d suggest you l
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 052
Scott’s POVMy eyes are fixed on Vincenzo and Christina as I watch how well they converse like they’ve known each other forever. She does it with such ease that it leaves me wondering if I’d misjudged her in the past, regarding the case of her relations with her personal guard, Dexter, and my step-brother, Marvin. Watching her with my grandfather has made me realize she’s a natural when it comes to effortlessly relating with people. It is more like an inborn skill but it seems she lacks it when it comes to me.I nodded my head at something Vincenzo directed at me in the course of their conversation but I paid no mind to what he actually said. Thoughts of my strained relationship with Christina were all I could think about. She’s never been as kind to me with words as she’s been with others. Whenever she had to address me, there was always an air of hostility about her that kept me at bay. Although it seemed to have toned down a bit since our visit to Vincenzo, I wasn’t a fool. I under
The Billionaire's Runaway Bride Chapter 051
Christina’s POV “Would you like me to help you out?” The moment I heard those words, a little gasp of surprise fled my lips and my stomach curled, causing my pussy to pulse. I wasn’t expecting him to say that. All I’d expected was a mockery for touching myself. I had expected him to make it all about himself or even make me feel less of myself but that deep guttural voice that had uttered those sinful words was far from mockery. His palm that was still on my lower stomach pressed down slightly but firmly, not moving away. It only intensified the pleasurable sensations swirling through me, and I let out a shaky breath, unsure of what to do. I was too mortified to give him an answer to his question. It felt as if I’d die if I should let him see me this way but then when I remained quiet, he spoke again. “Come on, little fairy, you want it, don’t you?” His voice was low but still audible and this time, his palm traveled downwards, resting just at the top of my core. With one little mo
