A tense night

Sofie’s POVI giggled to myself as I read through some memes on the internet while trying to free my mind from the thought of Roman and I sharing a bed tonight.It wasn't supposed to be a big deal because we had both seen each other's nakedness the night before, and we had also fucked like rabbits in heat.So, why was the thought making me restless?I didn't even know how I was supposed to act around Roman now."It's just sleeping together on the same bed, Sofie. Nothing else could possibly happen between the both of you. It'll be fine. Put your mind at rest." I chanted like a mantra to myself as I dropped my phone on the bed and got out of bed.Roman had even included it in the contract that we were only going to be affectionate when it was needed, and I knew he'd definitely not go back on his words and before I knew it, the hundred days would be over and we'd be out of each other's lives. I reassured myself with a satisfied nod as I paced around the room.Then, there was a knock on

Preparation for the meeting

Roman’s POV"Mio nipote, how are you doing today?" Nana asked from the other end of the phone, to which I just shrugged even though she couldn't see me."Good. How are you, ma?" "I'm good too. No, even good is an understatement. I am elated, delighted, excited and slightly nervous too." Nana chattered excitedly which made a smile curve my lips."Today is D-Day, Romano. Hope you haven't forgotten about it?""Of course not, ma. What do you take me for?" I huffed."I'm sorry, darling. You know you've deceived this old woman so much that she doesn't even know when you are telling the truth. Remember some years back when you told me you were dating one lady, Lana or what was her name? Correct me." She said."Yes, Lana. You got it right. Well, things didn't work out between the both of us. I'm sorry, ma.""It's fine. There's no need to apologize. You haven't done anything wrong. You have to choose someone who you are sure you want to spend the rest of your life with and vice versa. But I k

Nervous

Sofie’s POVI walked into the bustling restaurant with quick, confident strides even though anxiety simmered within me. I clutched my handbag tightly as I reached the backroom, and came face to face with the door to my boss' office.“Sofie?” I heard someone call just as I was about to knock on the door. I tilted my neck sideways, and smiled when I saw who it was. “Brian.” I said as he walked up to me, returning my smile with a wide grin. Brian Goshen was also a worker at the restaurant. He was the coworker who I was closest to. “Sofie. Where did you run off to? I've been trying to call you for three good days, yet your line is always busy. What happened to you? Where did you suddenly sprout out from?” He asked as he held my hand. I grimaced before reciting the carefully-rehearsed lie I had prepared yesterday. “Actually, I had an emergency. A family emergency. My parents forced me to go and the place had no reception, so I couldn't take anyone's call nor could I place calls to peo

Unnecessary raunchy thoughts

Roman’s POV"Welcome home, young master." Antonio greeted as I handed him my briefcase."Thanks. Where is Sofie? Is she ready yet?" I asked, glancing down at my wristwatch."Yes, sir. The stylists just left not quite long ago, sir.""Okay." I nodded before sprinting up the stairs.I rubbed my palms together when I reached the door, feeling a weird sort of excitement sizzle within me.It wasn't as if I was excited to see what outfit Sofie was wearing though. I just wanted to get the meeting done, and over with.Yes. That was it.I pushed the door open while inwardly hoping I didn't catch Sofie in an awkward situation.My jaw dropped like literally dropped on seeing the ang-I mean, Sofie.I looked her up and down, lust mixed with fascination settling inside me.The stylists had done a great job and for a moment, I thought of calling Nana to cancel the meeting.I just wanted to bend Sofie over the dresser, and turn her into a whimpering mess.What did she think she was doing dressed up s

The meeting (pt.1)

Sofie's POVI walked closely behind Roman, almost gluing myself to him as we walked into the ginormous expanse of his grandmother's mansion.If I had thought Roman's house to be magnificent, then this mansion was by far grandiose.Even grandiose couldn't describe the medieval-themed mansion, it was opulently breathtaking."You are welcome home, young master." A formally dressed middle-aged man greeted us as we crossed the threshold.Roman handed his coat to the man, "Thanks. Where's grandma?" "She's in her bedroom, sir." He replied.The man who later introduced himself as Daniel made to ease my coat off my body and I just held up a hand and shook my head in calm negation."You are not feeling hot?" Roman's voice rang into my ears as he drew back a dining chair for me to sit.I perched on the chair, "Yes. I'm fine like this." I said, to which he nodded before he scanned the room, and brushed my forehead with a kiss which made Daniel, and the maids setting the table look away, to give

The meeting (pt.2)

Roman's POV"Romano, you are not saying anything." Nana said, and I broke the stunned gaze Sofie and I were currently sharing.I was so astounded by the sudden discussion about marriage that I didn't even know what to say, but I knew I had to utter a word to at least counter Nana's marriage plans before the situation escalated."I-err," I looked from Sofie to Nana, "Sofie and I are not in a hurry to get married, Nana. I hope you can understand, ma. We want to learn each other's differences, and what not before getting married an-""How many years have the both of you been together? When did you start dating?""Two years. We started dating two years ago.""It's been almost a year." Sofie and I blurted out at the same time which made Nana frown, and caused Sofie to dart a frightened stare at me.Fuck. I quickly salvaged the situation by placing a hand over Sofie's, "What Sofie means is that we met two years ago but we officially started dating about a year ago." I smoothly lied."Oh. V

The greedy parents

Sofie's POVWhat exactly could he want to see them for? I wondered within myself as the car steered to a half in front of my parents' shabby place of abode.Roman darted me a stare, "Shall we?"I nodded, "Yes." It wasn't as if he cared about my opinion anyway. I thought to myself as we trekked into the house together.Walking inside me anxious as the memories from that day with Mr Alexander Guilon floated into my mind.Roman is here now. I have him to protect me for a while. He won't let them harm me. I reassured myself.As usual, my parents were lazily splayed on the couch together watching a rerun of a Mexican telenovela that Mum was particularly obsessed with.They must have sensed our silhouettes hovering over the entranceway as they both turned their heads around to glare at me in particular, paying no attention to Roman.Mum shot up from the chair, triggered, "You stupid slut. I regret ever giving birth to you. I should have gotten rid of you immediately when I found out about

Facing his feelings

Roman's POV"I don't know anymore, Damien. I honestly don't know what to do. No matter what angle I try to view it from, it just doesn't seem right." I rambled out as the waitress placed the bottle of whiskey on the table.For an unknown reason, I felt guilty about doing something I didn't even know about.The stupid feeling bloomed within me immediately. I dropped Sofie off at the house and caught a slight glance of her eyes which were glassy with suppressed tears.No matter how much alcohol I consumed, I just couldn't shake the image off. It made my heart awfully heavy.Damien waited until the waitress left before he replied, "I still don't understand what you are trying to say, man."I poured a generous amount of amber alcohol into two glass cups, then slid one toward Damien who nodded before taking a sip."Sofie makes me feel things. Things I have never felt toward anyone in my life.""Things?""Initially, I thought it was mere pity because given the circumstances surrounding our

Get out of your imagination

Sofie's POV"Thanks again for having me, Cara. I'm sorry I showed up unexpectedly and ruined your plans for the day, dear." Nana cast an apologetic stare at me as she rose from her seat, at the head of the dining table."It's fine, ma. I had no plans for the day, so you didn't wreck anything." I reassured her as she slipped a warm, wrinkled hand into mine.Roman was quietly walking behind us to Nana's car, with his hands clasped behind him."Before I forget, let me give this to you." Nana rummaged through the brown leather bag clutched around her wrist, with her gaze trained on me.She handed me a small exquisitely wrapped lilac gift bag, a mischievous smile curving the sides of her mouth, "Here you go." She handed it to me, "By the way, you should only open it when you are alone. It contains something exhilarating that will make your heart race." She winked.I exchanged perplexed glances with Roman but nevertheless, I thanked her, "Alright, Nana. Thank you for the gift.""You're welc

Greece

Roman's POVSofie and I walked into the luxurious villa which was one of the various properties Nana had bequeathed to me, grim-faced and awkward with each other.She had been ignoring me for the past three days, after our spat.I regretted uttering such derogatory remarks to her, and I really wanted to apologize to her and make things right between us.We had to be cordial with each other at least, to make our charade more believable to the public.I had no idea why I had gotten so enraged toward Sofie at the sight of Nana's gift. After all, Nana was the bearer of the lewd gift.All my efforts to mend our relationship went down the drain as Sofie paid no attention to me.She'd only spoken to me earlier today to ask if I'd packed my passport and ticket and when I'd answered that I had done so the night before, she just nodded stiffly and faced sideways."Young master, you are here." Dave Martins, the elderly caretaker of the villa, walked towards us, his eyes drawn into tiny slits in
