Elle ~
When I thought to ask him about our connection it felt so easy from home but from here facing his softened face and calm composure I'd lost my voice ...I was terrified at the outcome and I didn't really want to end our date on a bad note so I decided to leave it till we got home .
"Wow this mushroom risotto is actually nice Mr Green"
"I have great taste miss Gemma" he said with a grin ...men from other sides of the table looked at me lustfully but I tried not to be uncomfortable and when he noticed he gave them a glare and they stopped.
My heart calmed at that single move..his possessiveness made me feel like he was actually feeling me maybe maybe smaller than I felt but atleast it was still there .
At this point it was clear this was beyond a contract even though we would never admit it too each other yet...
"A penny for your thoughts"
"Why just a penny your a millionaire"
"Don't insult me I'm a billionaire"
"Well I was just thinking about how our engagement ends in two weeks ..you can't wait to get me off your back I'm sure and although you may not have fallen for me your atleast less grumpy so you'll send me to college a different house yada yada and all this ends "
Speechless. We have stayed in the same space together for close to a year and this was the first time I've found him speechless and I didn't know if it was a good sign
"If you think I'm letting you go then you have to think again..your mine "
"Yeah yours to toil with and mishandle right ..you sure do miss the good old days "
I saw his eyes twitch and he tightened his fist ..he was trying his best to be calm but
"Elle I don't want to hurt you , how can you think that after three freaking weeks "
"Those three weeks happened because of a contract, were on this date for the same reason how can I sense anything genuine from this and I made you do things you didn't even want to do probably things you thought you'd never do but what do I make out of all of this huh...a fling"
"Since you like being mishandled I'll bend you over and spank the living daylight out of you if you dare call this a fling again "
"Then what is this Mr Green"
"Elizabeth "
This was the first time he said my name in full or maybe it wasn't but at this time my name sounded like a prayer falling down his perfect lips
" I know our relationship started rough I hated you so much I made you a slave and tortured you
I put a tracking and shocking device and tracker in your foot I starved you made you dress terribly ... but my hatred for you couldn't even last a freaking month ...I hated how you made me feel because I am supposed to hate you Elle , that's why I do every crazy thing I do that's why I made you dress horribly just so I couldn't find you attractive but it didn't work that's why I agreed to your stupid deal knowing very well that it went against everything I could stand for that I was putting myself for ruination...Simeon would always say that when you start feeling for someone conversations become free and going that they make you feel alive and that's how I feel when I'm around you. Attimes when I'm with you I want to leave but when I do I fucking regret it...I don't know if this is love but I'm not letting this go I couldn't even if I wanted to "
A tear stand left my eyes ...this was an all out confession and I was so happy I felt so warm .
"Take me home Preston " and with that he paid for the food and we got home....we kissed from the corridor into the room...we were both impatient...I was willing to give this man my all ..I wanted to get rid of the doubts about Desmond's word about every negative feelings and we finally became one in soul , spirit and body and we slept later both naked and breathless
