All Chapters of A Mistress For Aiden Creek : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

ARTEMIS POV“I-I don't get,” I managed to choke out, half expecting he wouldn't repeat what I thought he meant by that statement. And he didn't. Thank goodness. “Come on,” He caught one of my hands and pulled me towards the door. “Go change and let's go grab something to eat. I'm really hungry.”Not bothering to make an argument or insist on knowing what he meant, I robotically allowed myself to get pushed until I was indoors and in front of the staircase.“If you keep standing there, I'll have no other choice than to take you to my room, undress you personally and then wash you clean…”I didn't wait for him to finish before I ran off, shouting behind a response behind me. “Give me 10 minutes to get ready. I'll be quick.”“I'll wait for 10 minutes,” came his reply. The image of him grinning appeared in my head and it took me a great deal to wipe it off. I shouldn't be doing all these. I was still supposed to be Aidan's wife… scratch that. I was supposed to be his contracted soon to

ARTEMIS POV“You don't know me?” she asked, her voice dropping seductively.Scrunching up my face impatiently, I snapped at her in response. “Was I meant to know you, maybe by reason of psychic abilities or something?”"Ha! You're feisty, I like that," the lady on the other end of the call said with a chuckle. "Let's just say... I know someone who knows you very well."Walking away from the door to the bed, I picked up the red gown I was going to wear and pressed it to my chest before sitting on the bed. I tried to place her voice, but it was unfamiliar."Who is this?" I demanded, frustration creeping into my tone."Someone who's been watching you," she replied, her voice taking an interesting edge.My skin crawled at this point. ‘Just who the F are you?’"From Aidan?" I spat, my anger rising.But instead, the lady burst out in laughter, at the same time sending shivers down my spine."Oh, Artemis, you're so quick to assume. But I'll give you a hint: Aidan and I... we have something

ARTEMIS POVThe ride home seemed rather short, or maybe it was because I couldn't concentrate. Kane's hand remained on my thigh, sending waves of electricity through my whole body. I shut my eyes tightly when his hand inched higher, drawing in a sharp breath at the same time. ‘Is this the effect of drinking?’ I wondered, trying to distract myself by counting the number of signature cocktails and champagne I had drank. It felt like it was working at first but Kane just had to move his hand again. “Kane,” I gasped, holding his hand to stop him from moving it over my exposed thighs.‘Never ever ever wear such a short dress around Kane ever again,’ I concluded, making a mental note in my head. But Kane didn't stop despite my hold on his wrist. His touch was akin to a magnet, drawing my attention back to the present. His fingers were tracing gentle patterns on my skin and it made my heart skip a beat."Kane," I whispered again, my voice barely audible while I swallowed with extreme di

Artemis POV “Fine, I respect whatever decision you make,” Kane said calmly, close to my ears. “ I will give you more time to love me,” he added. I could see the anger written all over Kane's face as he walked away; I was sure he wouldn't want me to notice that, but I did. ‘ I don't mean to hurt your feelings,” I whispered silently to myself as I watched you leave. I went back to my room without the glass of water I came to take downstairs. Rolling from one side of the bed to another, I couldn't get myself to sleep because the thought of what happened between myself and Kane flooded my head. A few hours later, I slept off. The next morning, I woke up to the sound of a bird chipping at my window. “What in the world is this damn bird doing at my window,” sleep still shivering all over my voice and my head banging like it was going to explode. I was feeling so weak and tired like I worked all through the night in my dreams. I summon the strength to pick up my phone on the side ta

Artemis POV Before I knew what was going on, Aiden pulled me into a bathroom beside where we were. I wanted to compose and let him know he was not in the position to do what he was doing, but he covered my lips with a deep kiss which, deep down, I wanted so badly. I soon began to kiss him back. I was almost losing it when I remembered how he hurt me even at the party. I tried pushing him away, but his grip was so tight that I couldn't escape. “What in the world do you think you're doing right now?” I asked frowning and looking up at him to get a clearer picture of his face. Aiden didn't say a word, but instead, he wanted more of my lips, and he kissed me more. “Who did you think you are to think you can do anything you like to me whenever you want?” “I'm sorry, Artemis,” Aiden said out of his breath, his eyes looking all over my body like he was ready to devour me at any available chance he got. “ Did you just say you're sorry, Aiden?” I asked angrily with my eyes wide open. “
