All Chapters of Contractual Romance: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Sandy’s POVWhen I woke up the next day, the first thing I did was to raise my left hand and stare at the ring wrapped around my finger. I still could not believe that I was engaged. I was going to marry Anthony. This was getting even more real and even though none of it was real, it still made me feel like I was lucky and loved. Just the weight of the ring around my finger made me giddy and want to squeal.I became still when I heard him moving behind me on the bed, followed by a heavy sigh. I kept my gaze on my shoulder, waiting to see if he was waking up or not. I exhaled softly when he did not move again before going back to staring at the ring on my finger, only to freeze when his arm went around my waist and his bare chest pressed up against my back.I swallowed at the contact and folded my hands then stared at the window across from where I lay. My body tensed up more when his hand moved from my waist to my stomach, right under my shirt. I knew it was a habit of his but each ti

Sandy’s POVI was so excited I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs. I knew this was fake but this was beginning to seem real to me. I was going to actually marry my best friend and he was ready to give me anything and everything to make it perfect for me. Three million dollars was too much for just planning. I didn’t know much about it but I was not sure of what it could cover.As I mulled over it, my office door opened and I looked up. Anthony walked in, smiling. I rose to my feet and I approached him.“Anthony, you… you’re serious?” I asked, not having much to say because I was still in shock.He chuckled. “Yes, Sandy. I told you I want to give you the best wedding ever. You marrying me to save me has snatched the opportunity for you to have the best wedding of your dreams, so…”He wrapped his arms around me, and I gulped. I felt my body heat up from how close we were.“I want you to get the most beautiful wedding dress in the world with the money I sent. I already told my secre

Anthony’s POVI woke up to the sound of my alarm ringing— Today was the day I marry my best friend and it felt like a different person entirely. Everything around me felt as if I barely could recognize it. The atmosphere just felt different.I sat up from my bed and turned off the alarm and stared at the door of my room, head empty. After a few minutes, I blinked and got out of bed. The stylists would be arriving soon and I needed to get ready before they arrived. The wedding was going to commence in a few hours. I already knew that the world was waiting for this wedding. The attention was huge on us and I didn’t need to go online to see what was being said about me and Sandy.Sandy…Fuck. Sandy was marrying me to save me, to save my inheritance and protect me in more ways than I have ever done. It made me feel something like a flutter in my heart. This has been happening over the week. I had no idea what was going on with me but so far, I have been getting the urge to touch her, to b

Anthony’s POVMy mother was lying and trying to manipulate us. Something was not right.“H-How.”I stared right into her eyes, digging deep into her mind to see what exactly was going on and the fact that she was suddenly saying this out of nowhere.“Come with me, you two,” she said and walked away.I exchanged glances with Sandy and shifted my gaze to my mother walking. I sighed and motioned for Sandy to start walking. Together, we made our way to where she was standing, waiting with a glass of wine in her hand. Once we arrived, she smiled at us and looked at me, expression switching to seriousness.“Look, a lot is going on behind the scenes and you already know how important the family business is to your father. It took me a while to beg him to step down for his COO to take the seat as the current ceo. The man is getting old and as you already are aware, your father wants someone competent to take over. I do not know what he sees in the man, Trent Flintwood but all I am trying to s

Anthony’s POVFuck.Ever since I tasted her lips, I could not stop thinking of them and how I wanted to keep kissing her. It felt wrong. It felt like a sin to kiss her for pleasure when I knew our relationship was fake but I could not stop myself from wanting it.Also, the fact that she wanted me to be her first and to be the mother of our child did something to me. I didn’t know what but I loved it. My body loved the feeling it was experiencing and I wanted more.With the pull of greediness in me, I cupped her face and angled my head then deepened the kiss. I wanted to feel the insides of her mouth so badly. I could not help but run my tongue against her lips, begging for entrance and when she gasped, it was as if I got my senses back.Abruptly, I pulled away and moved away from her while rubbing my lips. Fuck. I forgot myself. All I asked for was a kiss, not a full blown make out session. I needed to remember that she was still a friend and doing things outside of our arrangement fe
