Chapter 1 - Cobweb designed room for fornication

JULIA’S POV“Drink! Drink! Drink!” strangers that I must have chatted the night away with or have never spoken to chanted behind me as I downed a glass of tequila barely squirming now at the foul taste because even though my vision wasn’t blurry and my best friend since we were on diapers didn’t have her hand draped around my waist to support my wobbling knees, I should know I was mightily wasted.Styrofoam cups overfilled with strangely colored alcohol and a billow of smoke, evidence of the party favors that featured all kinds of hard drugs, hip-pop music with its resounding speakers blaring in the room making it hard for the simplest communication, and sweaty bodies grinding into each other wasn’t my typical scene.My whole life had been about being flawless: the perfect grades, the perfect extracurricular activities, the perfect college, and now I was in law school, it was almost a joke that I was just learning a lesson that nobody should be that flawless.And no less, while wearin

Chapter 2 - I want you to get married

She ran off now full-blown sobbing. I didn’t get to see her features well because of her hasty exit but I had seen a smear of mascara running down the length of her face. I should be on my way by now. Make a run for it. There was nothing to see but a heartless prick who believe he was God’s gift to women but his phone rang. I decided to stay back for a second. It wouldn’t hurt to listen in more. I haven’t blown my cover yet and it wasn’t like I will ever see him again. Perhaps, I will see a side of him that is human and not the condescending twat that had just exhibited his lack of sympathy mere minutes ago. “You know I have always hated men having too much power for so long.” He started. “Especially old men.” Okay, there goes my theorem of him being more human than I thought and then rolling my eyes, I took a step forward about to walk away. “And now I have two options. Kill the motherfucker or get myself a trophy wife that will leave when I get what I want.” DAMON’S POV I wa

Chapter 3 - Like an image out of a bedtime story

JULIA’S POVI stopped in my tracks when I heard him mention murdering someone. Am I about to witness a plot of murder I thought. Chills ran down my spine and my head felt light, my knees wobbled, and my mouth suddenly became dry as I became aware of how stupid I had been to wander around when I was this drunk. I should call someone I thought fumbling for my bag.“Have you ever heard that it is disrespectful to eavesdrop on someone’s conversation,” there was a pause. “And not once but twice, pretty little thing?”My bag dropped. That was the hot stranger’s voice and it was closer than it was seconds ago, so close… because he had covered the distance between us and now, he was talking to me. He had a remote with him and just like that, my cover was gone because he had switched on the light at the threshold of the door where I stood and was now taking me in and being very obvious about it.Fuck me!I looked up slowly taking in his Armani pair of impossibly black shiny shoes, black slacks

Chapter 4 - Forbidden

JULIA’S POVA four-poster bed covered with Sofia the first bedsheets and matching cover cases, a mortifying amount of Zayn and Harry styles posters that hint at an obsessive phase covering a part of the wall, and the now chipping away paint of purple and pink on the walls were what greeted me when I finally opened my eyes. It had felt like old times, I had felt safe. Skye’s room was the only piece of my childhood that hasn’t been embellished or altered with the years.Not only was her room a reminder of when I was the happiest, but it was easier pretending we were still thirteen in here and ten years of putting ourselves out there, giving up weekends with girls, and canceling meetups at the last minute had not happened between us because we were too busy striving for the things that had once made our faces glow but now causes a crease in-between our brows. The dreams that have always seemed achievable yet so out of reach the more we approach them.I have spent more time in Skye's hous

Chapter 5 - Snow-white

DAMON’S POV“You have a compiled list of willing girls you think will be ideal wives for me for a short period of time?” I asked Mathew over the phone both stunned and I couldn’t deny grateful.Macauley was right, the sleazy old bastard knew that I love a challenge and I will try to get married just to rub how unaffected I remain in his face. But for that to happen I need a bride, willing to know that this is temporary and treat our marriage as such.And that was the problem, even though millions of women will give up their right arm to be married to me because of the fame, power, and money that comes with the title, I can’t count one woman who would be willing to let go without a fuss. But Mathew with his sadistic sense of humor seems to find my distress very entertaining and had decided to speed up my anguish by helping me find a bride. You will think that as the CEO of one of the biggest construction and real estate businesses, he will have less time for such ventures but the man

Chapter 6 - I am a dangerous man

JULIA’S POVHis eyes turned dark“What if I want to kiss you? Taste you. Nibble on your lower lip, run my hand under your clothes, take them off perhaps,” he placed his hand on my waist and I sighed. “I might drop hot kisses all over your bare body while I tell you how beautiful you are because it is the truth. You are fucking beautiful, Snow white you should be a crime.”I close my eyes almost like I had no control of my body as his hot breath met my ears. “Perhaps I would slip my hands beneath your panties and find you soaking wet. Turned on and needy for me. I’d finger you until you are begging me to let you come and when you eventually explode all over my hands, I will ask you to sit on my face. I will lick your pussy, till you are crying out, till the pleasure is too much, till you are begging me to never stop yet not knowing what to do with all the wicked sinful things I am making you feel.”My eyes flew open and I found him watching me with a sly smirk.“You’ll like that won’t y

Chapter 7 - I torture you?

I entered the room at the address Damon had sent me at exactly eight o’clock and a doorman greeted me with a polite smile.The receptionist, a pretty brunette took my invitation card and directed me to a wing of the massive building although I didn’t miss the way she took me in again, with respect in her gaze when she saw my invitation card.An imposing set of marble stairs rises before me, draped in blood red carpet and I carefully walk up them, my ankles wobbly thanks to the black five-inches whisper thin stilettos I don’t know what I was thinking when I had brought them down from my rack of shoes ditching the sensible more balanced heels Damon had sent me.Perhaps I am a masochist and the thought that it will take nothing for me to topple over; just one misstep, one miscalculation and I will be on the floor, my face planted on the ground made me happy in a way.When I reach the top of the stairs, my thought was completely halted by the man waiting for me, his gaze on his watch.Look

Chapter 8 - Because she is mine

DAMON’S POVI still remember a few of my dates who had tried to get my attention by leaving me in the arms of other men in frustration yet, I had not even batted an eyebrow.But there was something about Snow White that filled me with white-hot wrath at the way all the men in the party couldn’t keep their eyes off her the minute we had stepped into the hall, her long white hair which she had straightened flat gleaming under the light.I have always reveled in the attention I receive the minute I enter a room. Entering a room and knowing at the moment every man hated you or wanted to be you because of the woman you had in your arm or the way all the women in the room gravitated towards you, never got old. It has always been amusing watching them gawk at the woman in my arm knowing that she became a sex symbol the minute she walked in with me next to her. They always found her more desirable and were hungry for even the flash of her bare legs but right now, I didn’t care about who was o

Chapter 9 - Meet my fiancée, Julia

JULIA’S POV Perhaps I shouldn’t have been so cocky when Carlene had tried to warn me that strutting in here with a playboy like Damon was a bad idea. With his reputation, some women in here who were glaring so openly at me hated me because he must have gone out with them in the past. Or hated my guts because he didn’t. And being a witness to how he dismisses women and make them shed tears, I don’t even think I will like myself so much if I was in their shoes. “So, you are Damon’s flavor of the month?” one of the women who had a big rock on her finger and is supposed to be happily married to the creepy man who was blatantly checking me out asked while stroking my hair almost fondly. She was lithe and looked so perfect in her strapless black gown, she was almost unreal. “Flavor of the month?” I asked trying to play dumb. “Yeah,” she said conversationally, holding my arm and blocking off any woman who wanted to come close effectively. I looked at the spot where Damon was standing a
