VICTORIA FOX-
As I was getting ready for the ball today, I realized how truly nervous I was. I was going to meet Katrine after 6 whole years. I don't know what I am going to do but I know I have to protect Aaron from her. She is a monster and what she did to him was unacceptable.
After the mind-numbingly pleasurable encounter with Aaron, I didn't know what to do. I don't remember how long I stayed lying there in the kitchen as I felt like all my brain cells were dead.
When I did leave the kitchen, Aaron was actually setting up the couch to sleep on it. He told me that tomorrow he'll get one of the guest rooms cleaned out where he will sleep till I am ready to share a bed with him. I didn't say anything to him but I was actually very happy, the couch was not at all comfortable. My back still hurts.
He was being unbearably sweet towards me, almost like he was trying to woo me which made my plan so much more difficult. I know Aaron suffered a lot due to his manipulative ex but that doesn't give him a right to destroy my life. I mean I could be happy with Benjamin.
So I had decided to act as if I had given into this marriage, then probably I can destroy the only contract that he has in his safe, which is going to be challenging to get to, but I literally have no other option. Also I need to talk to Landon, maybe he can find a loop hole in his own contract, and maybe as his childhood friend, he'll feel bad for me and he may help me out.
I wore a sexy red gown, which had a slit along the side of the dress. I mean it did show off a bit of my cleavage but I really wanted to get on Aaron's nerve so this dress was perfect. As I stepped down to the living room, I saw Aaron standing in the middle, adjusting his cuffs. He looked so handsome, every time he looks at me the events of last night come flashing back in my mind making me blush hard.
I was so submissive and powerless under his touch.
He turns around to he sees me walking down the staircase, he raises his eyebrows as he takes in my dress.
I see a frown forming on his face as his eyes settle on my breasts making my heart thump out. He definitely doesn't like how revealing it is. But he doesn't own me, I can wear whatever the hell I want.
"Really Mrs. Riverwood? Are you trying to instigate me?" He says as he walks towards me till his chest comes in contact with mine which knocks out all the air from my lungs.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I literally did nothing." I say innocently with a lot of confidence in my voice but it falters as he starts making patterns along my collarbone with his finger.
This again!
I think as I feel goosebumps rise on my skin with just a mere touch.
"Act all innocent if you want, but I know you are no angel. If you wanted to, you could have stopped me last night but you didn't." He whispers in his low, deep voice as his finger drops into my cleavage, making my chest heave as I took in heavy breaths. "Remember this Victoria, I am no Benjamin, I don't do slow and gentle love making. I will make you cry as I roughly ravish you over and over, you'll be begging for me to stop, but I won't. I will make you forget your own name." He swiftly puts his hand around my waist and leads me out of the house to the car as I try to get over the words that just fell out of his mouth.
I didn't like the way my body reacted to his words. My body wanted him, needed him. After last night, I couldn't stop thinking about how sex would like with Aaron. I hated the fact that Aaron was right about Benjamin's way, he was always a very sweet and gentle lover.
As we entered the ball, nostalgia washed over me. My dad used to bring me to such events as a teenager. I saw a lot of familiar faces but I disconnected from them after I got married. I just focused on my restaurant and was in regular contact with only Elizabeth, my best friend and Rita, who worked as a sous chef for me.
After mingling a bit, my nightmare actually came to life as I saw Katrine, the tall blonde bombshell who was a perfect type of woman Aaron was into, walking towards us with Paul Scotts!!!!
Landon's stepbrother!!
What the hell??
"Hello Aaron, it nice to finally meet you after six years, I think. I wonder why we never met again." Paul laughs creepily and extends his hand. Aaron smiles as he shakes his hand.
I never understood Aaron, he never showed his true emotions to people, but he did with me. He was always this goofy guy who was so charming. But I knew exactly how he was feeling right now.
"Yeah, after you tried to steal my company, things did go downhill a bit, but now all is forgiven." Aaron says making Paul laugh again. I don't understand why a woman would leave Aaron for Paul.
"This must be Victoria, your wife. She's beautiful." Paul says as he kisses the back of my hand while his lingered on my breasts
Creep.
Just then someone calls Paul and he excuses himself for a minute. Katrine stares at Aaron regretfully but he doesn't spare her a look.
"Aaron, please look at me. I am sorry, I never meant for this to happen. I did fall in love with you too, but I was in too deep with this entire sabotage situation and I knew you wouldn't accept me with someone else's child. So I had to leave. I had no choice." Katrine wiped her tears from her beautiful face as she looked at Aaron with guilt filled in her eyes.
I was shocked, at the nerve of this woman to speak like that in front of me. I am his wife. I looked at Aaron who was just as shocked at her confession.
"I would have Katrine, I would have accepted you no matter what, I was deeply in love with you, but thankfully you left me or else I would have never found Victoria." He says as he pecks my lips lightly, making my heart feel warm.
"Aaron please don't say that. I still love you, you treated me so well. Paul is nothing like you. Please give me another chance! You loved me with all your heart, you made me feel so special. Paul doesn't care about me and always shouts at me. He doesn't care about the kid, he is never involved with anything." She begged as she placed her hand over his, which made my blood boil.
Okay, am I like invisible?
I guess I was still jealous. Seeing Aaron deep in thought, I was worried. Was he planning on going back to her? That would definitely solve my problem.
No, I would never let that happen. He can't go back to her, he definitely doesn't deserve this. That's when an idea struck me, I could use this situation to show Aaron I had completely given into him.
"Nope, too late, he's mine. So back off." I sneer at her before grabbing Aaron's hand and leading him towards the empty aisle outside the ballroom. I could see Katrine's shocked face from my peripheral vision.
"You are not going to get back with her, Aaron Riverwood. I am not letting you. I will help you forget her." I see confusion and surprise plastered across his face but I don't waste any time and do the first thing I could think of.
I grab his neck down and press my lips harshly against his. As he recovers from the shock, he swiftly changes our position so that my back was against the wall without breaking the kiss. I try to keep up with it but it becomes hotter and harder as his hands roamed around my body freely. His lips left mine and attacked my neck.
Oh god
"I was never planning on getting back with her, Victoria. I already told you, I am never going to let you go ever again." He mumbles as he bites my neck harshly before sucking on that very spot senselessly, making my breath ragged. "The fact that you think I would choose her over you is insane but I liked seeing this jealous reaction."
Before I could respond his lips start dangerously trailing towards my cleavage.
Oh god! He is leaving marks everywhere! He is doing it on purpose so that I would have to cover up. I try to push him away but this just continues to encourage him as he starts peppering kisses on my bare neck making me squeal like a little girl. My hands find their way in his tie as I try to pull on it to stop him but he grinds his hips right into my mound roughly, causing me to cry softly.
How I am ever going to get out of this situation, if every fiber of my body is attracted to him?
I can never seem to push him away. I wanted him so bad.
"Ahem Ahem" We hear a fake cough which makes us freeze for a second but then we turn our heads around to see Landon.
