"Stella's point of view,"
He runs a multi-billionaire firm and conducts himself with an air of superiority and arrogance, yet here he is, sleeping like a five-year-old next to me.
For some reason, I felt compelled to run my fingers through his hair.
His expression was one of tranquility.
"Why are you so stubborn, Ethan Woods?" His naive face brought a grin to my face.
Did I just call him innocent?
No, no, that can not be possible. My subconscious mistakenly believed he was innocent due to a mental glitch.
Stella, you know full well that I'm doing fine; the problem is that you refuse to face the reality that you have feelings for him. So, please, stop further arguing. My subconscious counterattacked against me.
No, I do not like him. For me, he is a monster who broke my leg, wrecked my life, and destroyed my business.
So you're blaming him now for your failings and obstinacy. You alone are responsible for where you are right now and the circumstances you find yourself in—not him.
Oh God, why is my subconscious supporting him?
The pressure of his heavy head made my shoulder ache. I took his head off my shoulder and turned my face away so I could fall asleep comfortably.
Oh god, what does this man want now? He clamped down on my waist, both of his legs on my thighs. Now, his face lies between my neck and my breast.
I felt tingles throughout my body as his hot breath touched my delicate skin. I am in a state of complete immobility due to his immense weight. I now regret jerking his head off my shoulder. His closeness was less of an issue for me back then. However, I'm finding it increasingly challenging to restrain my lustful thoughts these days.
I wanted to jerk his body to get rid of the romantic ideas that were still running through my head, but then I remembered his warning.
"Stella Parker, I will keep you up all night long screaming my name if you dare disturb my restful slumber in any way."
Oh my, what a seductive warning he issued. My subconscious again got excited about me and him fulfilling his grandmother's wish.
Just shut up; nothing like that is going to happen.
I don't want to share a bed with him since I know I can't control my emotions with him. But stubborn Ethan Woods never understands my situation. All he wants is to win in every case. Now, I'm obligated to spend the entire night engaging in his playful teasing.
If you grant his grandmother's wish, simply think about the consequences of your child's appearance. If he resembles Ethan Woods, what will you do?
No, no, I don't want my child to have the Hulk's conceit. I want my child to have my elegance and sweetness.
However, that child will also be Ethan's, so he will undoubtedly share some of his traits.
No, I don't want my child to have traits like Ethan's.
Imagine the sound of his name moaning beneath his monstrous frame.
What if he takes control of you in bed? Will you give in to his dominance in bed? No, I won't let him control me in any manner. Intimacy is about love between two people and the union of their souls, not about competition.
However, you claimed not to love him. God, why did my subconscious drag me into its web? At midnight, what the hell am I even thinking about?
I have to go back to California right away. Avery is unable to manage things on her own. I turned my attention away from my stupid, passionate thoughts and to my work and company. I saw his serene face as I woke up throughout the entire night.
What prevented me from waking him up was something I couldn't identify.
Lying on the bed, I mentally calculated my company's financial plan and fresh strategies. I devised new tactics to deal with Mr. Chan's accusations and my failing business. I instructed Avery to execute the strategies in the message. The legendary Ethan Woods then snapped out of his reverie and opened his eyes.
"Why are you staring at me so angrily?" I asked him.
"So, what else do you expect from me? I've already given you the warning not to wake me up in the middle of the night, or I'll teach you a great lesson. So why did you use your phone when I was sleeping?"
How dare he dominate me in this way?
"What do you think of yourself? I have carried your heavy body over me the entire night. Your snoring keeps me up at night, and instead of saying thank you, you are whining at me.
I didn't wake you up at night since it's 7 a.m. and it's not even night yet."
"I don't care what time it is; you're disturbing my sleep by conversing with your partner; therefore, I'll punish you."
Which boyfriend is he talking about? I don't have any other men in my life; why doesn't he realize this simple fact?
because you fooled him. My subconscious answered me right away.
"That's enough; I can't stand the pain in my arm because of you, monster." I hit him in the chest.
"Please don't test your strength on me, Stella—I can prove my strength to you too." In an instant, he leaped over me.
"What are you doing?" I stared at him in disbelief.
"Just turning what I warned into a reality."
"Ethan, please get off my body. You can not do this to me." I attempted to push him away, but I was unable to break away from his hold on my knuckle.
His hot breath stroked my cheek, reigniting my desire once more.
"Don't touch me, Ethan. I will sue in court, Ethan Woods."
"Hmm....Even if you say my name well, you still need to practice how to scream it loudly." I closed my eyes to control my desires, but then I felt his body weight lift over my body. He instantly got out of bed, made his way to the bathroom, and left me alone in the room. I felt free of his hulking body and let out a choking breath.
His grandmother's call suddenly appeared on my phone as I was ready to book a flight to California.
