Sebastians POV I was absolutely burning, iv never felt like this before. Not even when Gabriel was paying Hannah attention, I knew I had somewhat control over him. I could use my mission to tame his feelings. Also Hannah did not hold any feelings for Gabriel so I was aware nothing would develop between them two as long as I kept them apart. However with the information I was given by my body guards I was fuming with rage, I could no longer function, it was as though someone had set my heart on fire, one that could not be extinguished. But what had me confused was why I felt this way. I know what I feel when it concerns Gabriel was due to my love and care for him, he was my cousin brother one of my most dearest. Yet in this situation it concerned no one important to me. Hannah was just my mission so why when she had gone out for lunch with another male, had it caused so much discomfort, so much pain and rage. Yes, it was my ego, I couldn't have her going around with other men when she
Sebastian POVSitting in my headquarters behind my desk, I went over the last 3 weeks events, I had successfully taken down one of the most wanted men in the world, he had been on the run for the last 20 years. Well, he wasn't on the run but more that he had been guarded by his most loyal men for the last 20 years. I could have taken him down the day I heard about his wrong doings, however I needed to gather my own evidence. I never accepted a mission without having enough proof to convince me to take action. My missions were always designed by myself from choosing the target to executing it, I did have one of the worlds best assassins, hand picked by myself to accompany me. These men were my most loyal men but only a few of them knew my real identity. " I want these files destroying, also call the guard to aks him to send me details of Hannahs activities in the last 3 weeks". I asked Kane, one of the few that was aware of both my identities. "Yes sir". He went off to complete his t
Sebastians POVShe doesnt know what she does to me. Just her mere scent drives me insane, I am beginning to think my obsession has turned into an addiction, which is by far more dangerous. I must do what ever control I have left to stop her from taking anymore from me than she already has. But just a moment ago she used her enticing mouth to utter my name in a manner where my name has never sounded better. She voiced it out as though it was a completely novel name, one that had not been spoken of before. She completely dissolves the little control I have over myself. I remain silent at her addressing me, I know she is confused, she has no idea what I'm feeling. I proceed to question her about her whereabouts, once again she amuses me with her replies. She sometimes cannot control what leaves her pouty mouth, neither can I when I'm latched onto it. She also has her way of irritating me by questioning my authority and the rights I have over her, so I do what ever is required to tame her
Sebastians POV.I have spent the good part of tonight, thinking about how to move forward with my mission. I am certain about one thing if I can keep my desire in check, I can stop feeling these emotions and continue with my goal. Hannah has stirred in her sleep several times, wincing in pain, which I'm sure she feels for real. I'm sure she will still be in pain tomorrow morning when she wakes up, which is only a few hours from now. I have never been stun by a stun gun, but have been informed that the pain is usually only temporary from a few seconds to minutes, but can leave the individual exhausted. I made sure that I only stunned her for 1 second and it was of low amperage, which meant no permanent damage would be caused. Hannah seemed to have suffered significantly from the event, from what I've learnt about her she isn't made for any harsh treatment. Her body can be compared to a soft toy, a flexi boneless cuddly bear. I dont think she has ever worked out, there is no definition
Hannahs POVI'm called to the dining room by Mrs Flemington. I wonder if his guest has arrived. He had ordered me not to disclose my status to her, I was somewhat annoyed and hurt at his order. This was the second time he had mentioned this, the first time was when I had revealed the details of our marriage to the receptionist and his PA. Before this I wasnt aware that he had concealed the details, I knew he hadn't formally introduced me as his wife but I didn't think much of it. Now, its clear that he doesn't want the world to know about me as his wife. I gather the courage and decide to show up at the dining table before I alarm the beast to force me to the dining room, this I dont want certainly not to be witnessed by his guest. As I make my way towards the dining room. I can hear a ladies voice making small talk however I can't hear the other party at all. As I turn the corner and enter the dining room I see Sebastain sat at the head of the table and the back of a female, she is
Hannah POVSitting in the moving vehicle, I wonder how destiny played out. I have been taught to appreciate whatever situation I'm in, as I could be in a much worse situation. Therefore, what ever hardship I suffered before marriage, I challenged it and always looked at the betterment of the situation. Now, after marriage I would say I'm in no better situation if not worse however, I refuse to to be defeated and feel dejected at what others put me through. I promised myself that I will not allow Sebastian to acheive whatever goal he has in place concerning me. He has made it clear that he married me for a reason, to ruin me but who is he to decide my ruin. This morning he had me up at 5am, ordering me to get ready for work, I would have appreciated at least a days notice. I suppose the whole facade about me working for him infront of Haley was enough notice, I should hold have been prepared. As I sit facing Haley, who had been busy the whole journey scrutinizing my appearance, I cant
Sebatian POV.I have never found Haley to be anything but pleasant, but her attitude has changed recently. I knew she was envious of Hannah despite introducing her as my helpers neice she felt threatened by her presence. Hannah was a woman who didn't need to announce her family background or her wealth, she exuded elegance, femininity and power. Whereas Haley had insulted my helper to make Hannah feel low, advertently enhancing her status. I had asked Hannah to apologise to her as I genuinely cared for Haley and I did not like Hannah talking to her in a disrespectful manner. I didn't care how elegant or sophisticated she was, she belonged to the kind I despised and would never allow her to feel like she was our equal. However, Mrs Flemington was more than a helper, and I was clear about my displeasure in the way Haley had addressed her after Hannah exited. Of course Haley thought it was because of Hannah I had reprimanded her, I did not bother to explain myself to her. Again, this mor
Sebastian POV I drag her into the basement of a small abandoned warehouse, surprisingly she has stopped rebelling and is looking around like a frightened child. Its dark, damp and dirty, I know she is going to struggle to hold the fort for the night, which is exactly why I have brought her here. I'm not going to physically punish her, she wanted some time off, she called it retail therapy. Well I'm going to offer her a therapy she will learn from for life. As I drag her to the middle of the basement I can sense the fright, she is trembling and shaking. Suddenly she wounds her arm into mine and with both arms she is holding on to my bicep with all her strength. She is more than frightened now, as come to realise that I'm about to leave her here on her own. As I'm about to unattached myself from her she whispers, "Please, Please Sebastian, dont leave me here. I won't leave the company again. I'm sorry I will try my best not to retaliate". I found it amusing how even in panic she coul
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
