Hannahs POVAs I arrive at Elizabeths place, the girls are already sat having a drink whilst Elizabeth drags me in. She reintroduces me to her friends some of which I met at the exhibition and some I had not seen before. There was one other, a male who was sat in the corner of the room, i wondered who he was as he was the only male invited. He was dressed immaculately, ruling out the possibility of being a helper and he carried a certain aura; one which was cold yet demanded attention. He reminded me of Sebastian, but not quite as intimidating and less aloof. He paid no attention to me and sipped on his drink, " Hannah this is Raphael. Raphael this is Hannah, my brothers fiance". I wasnt sure why Elizabeth had introduced me as Gabriels fiance to Raphael and not the others, but I greeted him anyway. " Hello". As soon as I greeted him and for the first time he shifted his gaze from his drink to me, looking me straight in the eyes. I wasnt sure why but his gaze held so much emotion tha
Sebastain POVI watched as she laid on my bed taking small breaths her chest rising and falling declaring her alive. I wondered what would have happened had I not been able to revive her. I wasnt sure anymore how I felt for her but I knew one thing, that I did not want anything to happen to her life. When I arrived at Elizabeth's place I had every intention to drag her back home and reprimand her for attending her party without my permission. I had already freed her from my imprisonment however, after Raphaels threat I wanted nothing more than to lock her up again. I was certain he would be at Elizabeths party and for only this reason I had raced to her place. When I arrived at her place I did not need anyone to greet me at the door I had access to her condominium as it was under the Agrestes Group and every one of us Agrestes had access to the properties under our family business. As I arrived at the back I saw everyone in the pool apart from Hannah, she sat there what looked like a
Hannah POVI wake up to an empty bed, my heart constricts with the feeling of dread. Has he left me again after spending the night and the morning using me. I get up with pain shooting all over my body especially in the nether region, I'm not sure how it feels to be involved in a car accident but it can't be much worse than what I'm feeling. Limping I walk to the bathroom hoping to find him in there, but as expected its empty. I decide to shower as I feel sticky with the remnants from last night and this morning. 45 minutes later I'm dressed in one of his t shirt and shorts, I slowly walk out of the bedroom into the lounge area which is also empty. I dont have my phone nor my belongings so im not sure what time it is but I'm sure its past midday. I walk towards the door which I assume leads into his office, when it suddently opens with Sebastian walking in. " You awake". He asks me without giving away any expression. I'm not sure what yestetday meant to him, but for me everything ch
Sebastian POVits been a few days since we got back. Hannah has mostly been in hiding whereas Gabriel has attempted to take her out but she refuses. I know he is aware of how she feels but he still chooses to be stubborn and persist on wanting to spend time with her. I pity him at times as love has completely blinded him yet he isn't happy, he knows he is forcing this relationship on her and she may never respond to his love. Recently, I have noticed him lose his temper on people around him and I dont prefer to see him like this. He is preparing to go back to the UK to attend an event held by our family business, The Agreste Group, as he will be inheriting it he is expected to be in attendance. He wanted to take Hannah but I didn't allow it as my parents will also be attending and will certainly recognize her. I am aware how Gabriel feels about my interference, however he knows not to question my decisions and if I had not allowed Hannah would not have been engaged to him. He is not a
Hannah POVWe arrived in Tokyo early afternoon, the weather isn't too different from the weather in New York. I sit in the balcony of the Agreste Hotels and look outside at the skyscraper buildings across the beautiful city. Two twin buildings stand out the tallest, the Agreste Empire buildings domineering over all the others just like its owner. In each of the major cities across the world stood the trademark twin Agreste Empire buildings. I wondered how Sebastian was able to gain so much at such a young age. He was extremely talented, I had acknowledged this from the moment I laid my eyes on him, he was also extremely hard working. His driver had dropped me off at the hotel with one of his female body guards, whilst he drove Sebastian to the office. I wondered how he had managed to stay awake and active during the 14 hour flight and then be ready for work. I was exhausted and I had managed to sleep for almost 8 hours during the flight. I decide to quickly shower and have some lunch
Sebastian POVAs I close the door, Hannahs act is replaced with panic," What are you doing"?"I can't sleep". I say without any emotion"and"?"i think its better i sleep here". "no". She almost shouts at me"I'm not asking for your permission". As I say this I push her on the bed and lie down next to her caging her with my arms. Hannah attempts to release herself, but she fails. She attempts to kick me as I anticipate her move I use one of my legs to cage her lower half. She is completely retrained, I am careful not to hurt her as I could easily suffocate her tiny frame with my large body. "let go of me, you big large brute". Her use of language amused me, I had noticed Hannah did not swear however she had a range of words she used for her colorful language. "hmmm, your bed is much more comfortable than mine", I say teasingly grinding my lower half against hers". This causes her to still all her current actions, as expected my actions just now had her concerned. "Can you please
Sebastian POVKaren had been updating me about Hannah's daily activities, I wasnt surprised to find out she had not gone shopping like most women but had instead explored the city. Tokyo is a beautiful city, as im driving through the city, I can see why so many people enjoy coming out in the evenings, the view is magnificent. As im lost in thought Karen sends another message through informing me that Hannah had arrived back at the hotel. I had not asked Karen to give me a comprehensive report on Hannah to allow her some privacy, however I wanted to know when and where she was and also if any obstacles came their way. As soon as I enter the suite, Hannah is sat on the sofa playing a board game, she is playing chess. I observe her as she makes a move and seconds later she views her phone and makes a move watching her screen. She must be playing a game with an online player." Who are you playing against". She fliches in fright buy quickly recovers, she squints her eyes assessing me. Im
Sebastians POVI am trying really hard to forget what I just saw but my heart and mind are at war with what I should do. Hannah had fallen asleep on the sofa after playing chess, I wasnt sure how long she had been asleep as I had been working in my study for the past 4 hours. I decided to carry her to her bed and left the door slightly ajar after leaving. I must have fallen asleep just after midnight when im woken up to Hannah talking. At first I thought she was conversing with someone over the phone as I couldn't hear a second voice, but then Hannah seemed to be panting and moaning. I walk into her room to find her in the middle of her bed eyes still closed, mouth slightly open but what got me aware of her situation was her rubbing her legs like she was on heat. It irritated me that she received pleasure from her sleep and I wasnt the one providing it. I waited and tried to make sense of what she was muttering but it was incomprehensible. To disrupt her session I walked up to her an
Sebastians POVIt is one week to our engagement, I am counting each day, not because I'm excited or that I can't wait to be engaged to Haley, but the opposite. As the days are getting closer im starting to feel what Gabriel described it as a death sentence. Each time I have to think of my engagement, my chest hurts like its being crushed and my breathing becomes difficult, my mind loses focus, I have often had to walk out of meetings. Luca has been concerned about my health, but I know its not a physical problem. The only thing that relieves the symptoms is the memories of Hannah, the time she worked for me, the times we played chess, the times I had taken her and many many more. Im losing myself and im not sure what I feel anymore.Suddenly my thoughts are interrupted by the office phone" Mr Agreste, your engagement has been leaked". I was shocked by Lucas words, I had made sure everything was kept private and no details were leaked. " Find out who leaked the information". I ordere
Sebastian POVIt has been exactly a month since the day Hannah left. Each day I spend time reminiscing and going over the memories of her. I remember the first time I took her to work and she told me she was more qualified to take my job! Hannah had such a unique character just like the rest of her. I've acknowledged and accepted that the grief of losing her will stay with me. Each night I need to visit her room, its the only thing that can calm me, its my therapy. I would sleep in her room but I dont want anyone to find out also I want to preserve her scent. I've prohibited anyone from enetering her room, no one can clean it, it stays in the same state she left it apart from the bedding. At first I thought I could buy some of the products she used to replace the scent, but I soon realised Hannah had her own natural scent that no product in this world could replace. Aunt has notified me that Gabriel had recovered significantly however, he cannot forget Hannah. Aunt spoke of his first
Hannah POVHis words completely broke me, I had thought wrong all he felt for me was lust. He chose his cousin over his wife, a wife that he held no feelings for. As I begged and pleaded for the sake of my love he felt nothing but pity for me, my love was worth nothing to him. As he handed me the envelope and asked to me to sign it my hands shook uncontrollably just as my tears flowed freely. He was handing me the divorce papers, I opened the envelope and took out the few papers binded together. There were many clauses included and at this moment in time I couldn't read nor understand anything. " Is it ok, if I read this in my room once I've cleared my mind". He looked at me with pity, yes I could clearly see it now, he pitied me. "ok". I didn't wait any longer, I quickly rushed out, I dont want his pity anymore. As soon as I got into my room, I let out the tears that I had with much difficulty kept at bay. Sebastians POVAs soon as she left, I did not feel relieved I felt a fore
Sebastian POVI had called for both mine and Gabriels parents in the suite. I had explained to them how I came to marry Hannah and everything after up until Gabriels attempt at suicide. Gabriels mother was disappointed at us and I did not complain, her son was lying in a hospital bed because we had mishandled the situation and thereafter I had made the biggest mistake of planning to go back on my word. My parents on the other hand remained silent, I could sense the disappointment and something else. " Mother do you have something to say". I could tell my mother was hurt and at this moment in time I would rather her voice her thoughts." I am disappointed, but what I dont agree with is your plan from here onwards. She is your wife and she is at no fault for all the decisions you two have made up until now. If she has chosen to be with you, then you must respect that." She pauses before she continues," I dont care if you don't love her Sebastian, this is your punishment and Gabriels.
Sebastian POVI had been feeling slightly off for the last couple of days but today this feeling had completely overtaken me. It was as though something terrible was going to happen, I could not concentrate on my work. A few hours later I had attended all the important matters that required my attention and was just about to start working on one of the contracts for a meeting tomorrow when suddently my PA Lauren rushes in without knocking," Mr Agreste, I've just received a call from the hospital, your cousin has been admitted, he is in a critical condition". She tells me with panic written all over her face. I was about to arrange for my private jet to take me to the UK when she completes the last part of her sentence,"Dr Simmons has been called to attend to him". Dr Simmons was our emergency family doctor who worked at the private Agreste hospital in New York. " He is here in the US". " Yes". she was confused at my question. I disconnected the call and grabbed my suit jacket an
Hannah POVIt has been a week since we got back from Japan, alot has changed between Sebastian and myself. As soon as he gets back from work, which has been much earlier compared to before, he whisks me to the entertainment room. Most of the time playing chess, cards or talking about general stuff. Later at night we spend time in his study, I help him in some of the paperwork, looking at contracts, ledgers and at times new plans, I had got quite used to this. We would spend the night together, of course I had moved into his room and I had moved most of my items in there. Sebastian had taken me out a couple of times but usually to places that were quite isolated, I wasnt sure why but I felt he didn't quite like being around too many people. It did not bother me as the only person I wanted to be with was him.In the last week and a half after he confessed his feelings and thoughts, I couldnt help but fall deeper for him. He had already said that he did not love me and what he felt for m
Sebastians POVAs I observe the sleeping woman opposite my seat, I cant help but reminisce the time I had in the last 4 days. Hannah had me completely stunned, I was amazed and enlightened at how intelligent and entertaining she was. I had not imagined that I would want to spend each second in her company, with her beside me I was completely distracted from everything else. It wasn't just desire and need she satisfied there was something else about her, that had me feeling content, satisfied and entertained with her mere prescence I was becoming obsessed with her. I wanted her every bit of attention on me and the only time I allowed her to steer away was when she was tired and needed sleep. The first night I had tried to teach her how to swim, I say tried because I had been completely distracted with her body on full display. I had made the mistake of choosing a two piece, each time I held her to provide her support my body would react in a way that had me completely humiliated over
Sebastian POV"You have the right to blame my kind, you can use the difference between you and them to express your hate whereas I've been hurt by my own people, yet I don't have any right to blame them because they are my people and I'm expected to accept what ever they inflict on me."As she let me in on this information, I felt something else for her which I had not before. At the same time the hate I held for her kind intensified knowing that they had hurt her. I tried not to dwell on the matter as I knew it wasn't going to help me and I had already accepted her so there was no reason to dwell on my past. I spent the morning observing her during her sleep I wanted to wake her up and do much more with her, but I was aware that if I did she may not be able to get out of bed for the rest of week. Now that she is awake I better inform her of my plans with her today and how I plan to spend the next 4 days, as I had cancelled my plans to return to the US." I have made some plans for u
Sebastian POVI couldn't hold myself back anymore, she needed to know what I feel for her. Within 3 strides I was right infront her, and before she could protest or say anything I grabbed her arms and restrained them above her head whilst I kissed her deeply. The kiss represented how she made me feel, desperate, possessive and completely out of control. She did not respond at first as I assaulted her lips until she overcame the shock, she attempted to release her hands and tried to kick at me, however I pressed my body against hers restricting her from any movement. I wedged one of my legs in-between hers rubbing it ever so slightly against her heat, I could sense her resolve melting, her body had started to react to mine without her consent. Her protests had weakened and she opened her mouth to allow me entry, I took this opportunity to satiate my hunger and quench my thirst of the last couple of days I had deprived myself of her. My whole body was applauding and appreciating my deci
