All Chapters of Destined to be His: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I sat on my bed, mopping and wallowing like a dog who had just lost his balls. “They weren’t talking about me right?” I asked myself but with no answer. The little subconscious voice that I was trying so hard to ignore letting me know that it indeed I whom they were talking about. Was that how low and little they thought of me? A knock brought me out of my thoughts, and before I could say anything, he graced my presence. Plastering a smile on my face, I welcomed him waiting for him to utter what had brought him here. Instead, what I got was a kiss, a lengthy mouth to mouth French kiss. His earlier conversation invaded my mouth, my earlier repulsion for both him and I, for allowing him to do these kinds of things, resulting me into trying to push him away. However, like usual, he did not budge. The more I pushed, the more he pulled me back to him, slowly making me forget my earlier resilience. I mean at least I tried. After what felt like an hour, he finally pulled back letting me br

The house was as mute as a grave, which was nothing out of the ordinary. After all, I was the only soul residing here, in this tremendous luxurious penthouse. One did not need every inch of their brain cells to recognize that this penthouse was in fact designed for a male owner. The dark rustic walls, the lack of décor whatsoever, the lifelessness screaming from every corner of the living area. It was just so masculine, however I had to admit, it was still beautiful. The breathtaking view of the cityscape, as displayed from the gigantic clear windows made up for the plain living quarters. Especially during the golden hours, where the beautiful orange rays of the setting sun would grace the entire living room, I lived for those moments. They never failed to leave me in awe at how spectacular and beautiful the city of London could be, especially during the evening when the sky turned an aesthetic pinkish orangish colour submerged in the clouds. Sunrise was also a blessing in this house.

Slamming the door shut, I screamed in fury at no one whatsoever, the tears that I was desperately trying to hold back earlier, fell out on their own accord. Pained sobs escaped my mouth as I scrunched down, covering my face with my hands hoping that the subtle action would hide my weak self from the unseen demons residing in the house.  “Looks like you have no problem slutting yourself out to other men except me” That chilling, forbidden voice that I knew all too well spoke, cutting off my pityful sobs, jerking my face out of the cage that I had created, forcing me to follow the direction the voice had come from. 

The rosy and warm morning hue blessed my skin as I had decided to sleep with the windows and curtains wide open. The cold chilli morning breeze pushing me further and further into the depths of my comforter. My body was too exhausted too, from cleaning the apartment all day. I had to leave it clean, before packing. My subconsciousness wouldn’t let me otherwise. Oh! Packing. I had so many activities that I had planned for today. Most of them were last minute such as changing my flight date for back home. I was supposed to live today, but there was so much that I still had to do first and so it had to be this way. Thank God I did not have to think about my flight ticket as my scholarship sponsors had done that for me, even though it was still kind of sad. My funds were dwindling, and I had no job to sustain my life here. Thinking of getting another one ate my brain away as I remembered the hustle, and time I had to put in order to get the one at the restaurant which paid peanuts only f

Deal! I heard myself say before releasing a shaky breath. His eyes were blank yet he had an amused smirk on his face, and I really cannot explain how that whole façade made me feel at that moment. He did not say anything else after, just pulled out a chair for me before signalling me to seat. “My lawyers will be here any moment to draft out the contract, and after that, you my dear will let me know, just how serious you are about our deal” Even though how he said it was very joyful and a bit sarcastic, I couldn’t help but feel the underlying darkness beneath his light words. Regardless, I had already cut my finger, the contract was already bound. Just like he said, the contract was done been drafted within the first hour of my demands being made. He just sat there, looking at me as the Lawyers took our signatures. Not once did his lustful gaze leave mine, and I never felt more naked than before even though every inch of my body was clothed. The heat was also turned up a notch in thi
