Contract Marriage by Ashleh Queen (novels to read .TXT) 📗

"Why?" He asked.

"Unlike you, many normal people prefer to have a bath after..." She stopped, not knowing what to say next.

"sex?" He said and she nodded in agreement.

"Well, I guess you know now that I am not like many people. Fair enough, make it 10." He said and was about to leave but then turned again.

"And this is the second and last time I am letting you get away with your smart mouth."

She narrowed her eyes on his back and get into the bathroom to take a quick bath. She didn't like any dress as all of these were either very short or exposing and she was cautious as she didn't know where they were going.

Wrapped in a yellow towel she went into the wardrobe but didn't get a single dress according to her liking. She came out to find Alex waiting for her in a black suit on the couch.

"Alex, I didn't like any dress. All of these are so short. I..." She shut her mouth the moment she noticed his eyes on her body.

"tsk., now I am so clear that you are doing this on purpose. Aren't you?" He said while shifting on the couch.

"No, Alex, it's really about the dress issue."

"All of them are quite reasonable. We are not going for Sunday mass in the church."

"I might go to Sunday mass wearing these dresses but not where you wants to take me." She said or she believed she said because he was still watching her waiting for her comeback.

"But there will be people. Right?...I mean wherever we are going." She tried to make her point humbly with her voice as low as possible to not initiate his anger.

"Do you have any fuking idea how fu*kable you look when you talk like this." He growled as he took long strides and was standing right in front of her.

Her breath hitched as she looked at his face hovering over her.

"Just give me two minutes. I will be ready." She said and get into the room and run into the wardrobe and locked herself.

She wore a sleeveless but a knee-length dress and came out after drying her hairs. She almost took 10 mins but when she comes out she takes a breath of relief seeing he was busy with someone on his phone.


 

He turned back to find her coming down the stairs. Where the hell she was all this time? How come I wasn't looking for her. Come on! Alex, the world is full of women. There might be many far more exotic than her. But what if there is none."

She was standing right in front of him but he was so busy taking in all her features. And that heated gaze was making her so uncomfortable. Slipping his hand on her butt he motioned her to walk. She narrowed her eyes on him but didn't resist. She noticed how huge swimming pool was. The water was sparkling. She noticed a driver waiting for them beside a range rover.

In 15 mins, their car was running on the road. She didn't have any idea about where they were off to because she was already so uncomfortable sitting on his so-called husband's thighs. He would give little pecks on her shoulder as his hands roam where ever they wanted to be on her body. She felt so hot and uneasy. She was too aware that she is not allowed to moan as there was another person who was driving the car right now.

She gave him a pleading look that he ignored. The torture went on for other ten minutes and she was off the hook when the driver parked the car. Getting out of the car, the first thing she noticed was the outlet of some clothing brand. They were received by a man and a woman who look like that they just step out of some shoot.

She didn't pay much attention to the people but to the store that looked huge and has a very calm interior. She was taken to a room with Alex that has a huge couch on one side and drapes on the other side.

"What a beautiful lady, Mr. Black?" The female employee said.

"You will be calling her Mrs. Black," Alex replied. 

"Oh, my... Pleasure. Congrats." The shock was too real on her face but she managed to say the words as she extends her hand for Jane to shake. Jane shook her hand with a little awkward smile.

"You may leave now." Alex gave her a nod.

Jane gave her a look asking what now. He moved to the drapes and pull some wire revealing a massive collection of dress, bags, and heels. Her eyes were shining visibly as she breathed. "wow!"

A sinister smile was plastered on his face as he slowly moved to sit on the couch and poured himself a drink. She casually moved along the rail when a white dress caught her attention. She briefly stopped to have a better look at the dress.

"You should try this." She heard Alex say. 
Getting the dress in her hand she looked at him. "Where is the changing room?" She asked.

"We are in the changing room." He said and it didn't take much time for her to understand what he meant.

"Why... Why this changing room is so spacious?" She asked with confusion.

"Because that's my store and I wanted it to be like this. It's for VIP's to make shopping fun for men too." He said and looked at her who was looking at him in shock.
