■ CHAPTER 14 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Suddenly, Mr. Jerkhead stopped walking. I looked up only to find ourselves standing besides his long car. He then safely put me on the ground and opened the back passenger door of his car for me. I immediately got inside the car and he too did the same. For the entire ride, I kept looking out of the window. I was too embarrassed to even look at his face. But from the corner of my eyes, I saw him constantly staring at me. I ignored the fact that he was watching me and continued pretending to look out of the window.
Suddenly the car came to a halt in front of a huge mansion or may I say palace. I looked around to find Noah already out of the car and running towards my side of the door. Like a gentleman, he opened the door for me and offered his hand for me to take. I placed my small hand in his huge one and got out of the car,
"You know that you don't have to act like you are a gentleman in front of me. Your such stupid acts are not going to work on me, Mr. Noah." I said, looking directly in his eyes. For a second, I felt like I saw hurt in his eyes. But no, it can't be hurt. This man can never get hurt. He always hurts others and plays with their feelings. He can't get hurt by my words. After all who am I to him? Nothing but someone he has to tolerate since he can't get his money back. I don't know why he wants to marry me, but I definitely know that there will be one of his selfish reasons behind this marriage. But no worry, sooner or later I will find it out.
He didn't say anything in return, but just intertwined our fingers and started walking towards the door of the mansion. I quietly followed him. When we reached at the door, Noah ringed the bell and we patiently waited for someone to open the door. Finally a woman, maybe in her early fifty's, opened the door. Another woman, looking few years younger than her, was standing besides her. Behind them, two elder looking men, may be in their early fifty's, and one younger looking man, may be in his late twenty's, were standing, along with three other women, out of which two women looked a year or two younger than me and the third one was looking a year or two elder than me.
The woman who opened the door immediately engulfed Noah in a hug,
"Oh my son. How happy I am to see you!" The woman told Noah and finally released him. She then turned towards me and asked me,
"You might be Angela, am I right?" She said and I just nodded my head in agreement. She then suddenly engulfed me in a very tight but motherly hug. I don't know why but I had this strange urge to hug her back and so I did the same. The woman finally released me and smiled widely at me,
"Oh my God! How beautiful you are!," she said looking at me and then turned towards Noah,
"Great choice, my son. You don't know how much happy I am, just by listening the news that you are getting married. I very soon want to see my grandchildren running in this house," she said, playfully tapping at Noah's arm. My cheeks started getting red and I tried very hard to stop them but I can't. I guess that Noah noticed my embarrassment, because he immediately squeezed my hand, which was in his hand, to make me feel somewhat comfortable.
"Mom stop it!" Noah told the woman. Oh, so she is his mother.
The woman just giggled like a teenage girl and pinched Noah's cheek,
"Oh look here who is getting embarrassed but no worry, I will stop now, my son," she told Noah and turned towards me,
"Angela, I am Ava, Noah's mother and I welcome you to our family," she told me and then pointed at one of the two older looking men,
"And he is Kristian, my husband and Noah's father." She told me.
Kristian waved at me and gave me a really very hearty smile and so I too did the same and he nodded his head at me.
"You are really a very pretty girl." Ava told me. I smiled at her and she too did the same. Suddenly the other elderly looking woman lightly pushed Ava aside,
"You are taking so long. Now it's my turn," the woman told Ava and hugged me tightly. After releasing me, she finally introduced herself to me,
"Hello pretty girl. I am Anna, Noah's aunt or you can say Ava's sister. And he is George, my husband, Kristian's brother and Noah's uncle," she said, pointing at the other older looking man. Wait! She said that she is Ava's sister, but she also said that her husband is Kristian's brother. Oh my God! I am really very confused now!
Like she can read my mind, she immediately answered my query,
"Yes, you are thinking right, pretty girl. Me and Ava are sisters and we married these two brothers," she said pointing at the two older looking men. Oh how cute it is! Isn't it? Two sisters married two brothers and came in the same house and are living together happily.
"And he is Dean, my and George's son," she said pointing at the younger looking man. Oh so he is Noah's cousin. I smiled and waved at him and he too did the same.
Anna was then about to introduce the girl, who looked one or two years elder than me, but she immediately stopped her,
"No aunt, I will introduce myself to my pretty sister-in-law," she said, playfully pouting like a kid and then came and stood in front of me,
"Hello miss beauty, I am Ashley, Noah elder sister," she said and hugged me. I hugged her back and she finally released me,
"And those two are Rose and Jasmine. They are Anna's daughters and Noah's younger sisters," Ashley said pointing at the other two girls, who looked younger than me. "And yes, they are twins," Ashley continued. Yes, the two girls looked exactly the same. They too smiled and waved at me and so I did the same.
*************************
■ CHAPTER 15 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
What the hell is wrong with this man? Why can't he just let me do a job? I want to do a job at some other place and not his company! It would be really very uncomfortable for me to work in his company. No, but why would Mr. Jerkhead understand? Why can't he be like his family? His family is so sweet, caring, loving and understanding. They all are so nice that for the entire time I was with them, I never felt like I was new in their family. His father and mother treated me like their own daughter. His father actually has become my friend. He is so kind, loving and caring that with him, I always felt like I was with my father. It has been only twelve hours since we left the mansion last night, but I am already missing them all. I always wanted to have a sister, and in the form of Ashley, Rose and Jasmine, I have got three instead of one. Dean has become my best friend. That guy is just amazing! He is not like his brother, cocky, arrogant and jerk! Dean has become like my big brother, who will care for me and support me in any situation, with whom I feel like I can share any damn thing. And Anna and George are amazing in themselves. I have never met a couple like them. They both are so funny that you can't stop laughing when you are with them!
I know that Mr. Jerkhead has blackmailed me for marrying him, but I still feel like I should thank him for giving me such an amazing family. I have always considered mom, dad and Ace as my family, but from today they all are my family too!
But what about this job matter? After dinner, when we were driving back to my house, I told Noah that I wanted to do a job and try to pay at least a little amount of loan back to him. But no, Mr. Noah wouldn't let me do a job at some other place. He wants me to do job at his own company, and that too as his personal assistant. If I accept his job offer, then I will have to face him for the entire day. It will surely be very difficult for me to bare Mr. Arrogant jerkhead for the entire day!
Okay, right, I am making stupid excuses, but what else can I do? I need to stay away from him. Whenever I am with him, my mind stops working and my heart starts beating very fast. There are butterflies flying all over in my stomach. I am not able to think anything and my mind just becomes blank. In a way, he makes me feel weak. I have never felt all these before. It is the first time when all this is happening to me, and to be true, I am really afraid from inside. He is a man-w***e. He can never love me. If I don't control myself now, then I will be the only one who will get hurt in the end. My heart will surely get shattered into pieces. I need to stay away as far as possible from Noah. And if I become his PA, then everything will go wrong, and I can't let that happen.
But if not his job, then what else can I do? He will not let me do job at some other place and I just can't stay here at home like this for the entire day. I would really get very bored! So now what should I do? Should I talk to Dean about this matter?
Yes! Great Angela! You are genius! I should do the same! Ava had said that Noah and Dean are not only brothers, but they are each other's best friends too. They are always there for each other, even in hard times or even in danger. I am sure that Noah will listen to Dean! Only Dean can bring me out of this problem. So, let's go and meet Dean, Angela! He would be in his office at this time. So get going Angela!
*************************
■ CHAPTER 16 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Hello, can you please tell me where is Mr. Dean Robert's office?" I asked the receptionist.
"Oh yes of course. His office is at 24th floor. So kindly go there," the receptionist answered me with a smile. So I too did the same.
I immediately headed towards the lift, praying that Noah doesn't see me before I meet Dean. But the lift seemed to be taking forever to come down. Please come down fast!
Finally the lift came down and I entered it without wasting anymore time. Luckily only two people boarded the lift with me, and they both got out at 10th floor. So it didn't take much time to reach 24th floor. I immediately got out of the lift and started looking around the floor to find Dean's office. There were only two offices present on the floor, and two women were sitting outside the offices. I read their designations and found out that one of them was PA of Dean and the other woman was PA of Noah. I immediately went to the PA of Dean and asked her whether I can go in his office right then or not. She immediately escorted me to Dean's office. She first went inside the office and then after few seconds came out and told me to go inside.
I went inside and my eyes widened in astonishment. His office was large and magnificent and the interior was just amazing. Dean finally looked up at me from the large stack of papers which were placed in front of him on the table.
"Angela, why are you standing there? Please come inside," Dean told me.
Closing the door behind me, I walked inside the office and took a seat opposite to Dean,
"I hope that I am not disturbing you, Dean,"
"Of course not Angela. I am always free for you. In only short span of time, you already have become one of my very good friends and you also, very soon, are going to be my sister-in-law. So never hesitate to talk to me Angela. I will always be there for you, like I am for Noah." Dean told me.
"Thank you Dean for being so kind to me. Actually I am here to talk to you about...umm..about job,"
"Job? What job?" Dean asked me, with confusion clearly visible on his face.
"Actually Dean, I want to work in some other company as interior designer. I have already completed my post graduation and I always wanted to start my career in interior designing. But as you know, since my father had taken a huge loan from your company, he was under severe stress and depression. So I decided to help my father in his business rather than starting any new job. I wanted to help him pay his entire loan and so I handled the entire stuff in his restaurant. Now, since the matter of paying loan has been closed, I want to start my career and want to do a job in some company as interior designer. But your brother....umm...I mean I talked to him about this matter last night and he didn't want me to do job in some other company. He wants me to work with your company. But Dean, I can't do that. It will really be very uncomfortable for me. But your brother doesn't want to understand anything. So..ummm..can you please do me a favor and make him agree to allow me to do a job. Please Dean, Please." I requested Dean.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
"Noah, can you please come in my office now?" Dean said in the phone.
Dean is just amazing! What an idea he has given me! Now you will have to agree Mr. Noah or else I am not going to leave you so easily. I know that what I am going to do is childish, but probably this is the only way by which Noah will agree to let me work in some other company. Hmm... this is going to be fun. But I will first give Dean a chance to make Noah understand my point. Right now, I am hiding myself in the corner of Dean's office so that Noah will not be able to find me.
Suddenly the door opened and the devil, in all his glory, enter in the office. I have to agree that Noah looks like some Greek God. He is so damn hot and sexy. He is sooo.... Wait! What am I thinking? Why does this always happen that everytime Noah is in front of me, my thought are not under my control. My all body parts start to betray me. Traitors! Look now, my heart is beating so fast, butterflies are flying throughout in my stomach, and my knees are becoming weak, just by his mere presence.
"What happened Dean? Why did you call me here?" I was brought back to reality by the devil's sexy voice.
Angela! Get a hold on yourself, dear!
"Noah, we need to talk," Dean told Noah.
"Talk about what, Dean?" Mr. Jerkhead asked Dean, with confusion clearly visible on his face.
"Talk about Angela's job, Noah. You need to understand Noah that it would really be very uncomfortable for her to work in the company which is run and owned by her soon-to-be-husband. You need to give her some space Noah. She wants to make her career independently, without anyone's help Noah. in fact you should be happy that she is not after you for money or fame. All the other girls, you have dated, were after you for your money or fame. She is one kind-hearted and selfless girl. She is not mean and selfish like others." Dean told Noah.
For few minutes, Noah remained silent and kept thinking about something. Will he agree or not? If not, then I am not going to leave you so easily, Mr. Jerkhead!
Finally, after few more minutes, the devil decided to speak,
"I understand Dean and in fact I am happy to find that she doesn't want my money or fame. But still I can't let her work in some other company. If she wants to work, then she will have to work here. This is my final decision and I don't want to listen anything more about this matter," Noah told Dean.
Stupid! Stubborn! Arrogant jerk! Why can't he just agree? But enough now Mr. Jerkhead! Now it is my turn to harass you!
"So you won't allow me to work, Mr. Noah?" I told Noah, after coming out of my hiding place.
He immediately turned around and his eyes met mine. For a few seconds I was lost in his eyes, but I finally managed to look away from his beautiful eyes and get my mind straight.
"Angela, you here? What are you doing here?" Noah asked still looking at me.
I took few steps and stood exactly in front of him,
"I asked whether you will allow me to work or not?"
"No," Noah replied.
"Ok now don't blame me. You asked for it!" I told Noah and before he can understand what I said, I started tickling him in his stomach.
Yes, this is what Dean told me to do. I too was surprised to know that Noah is affected by such a childish act. I mean, just look at him. He is always so serious, demanding, stubborn and all and he is affected by such a childish act. Oh God! When Dean told me this, I had laughed to such an extreme that my cheeks and stomach had started paining!
*************************
■ CHAPTER 17 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Angela, please... stop... it," Noah said in between his laughter. I don't know why, but I was mesmerized just by seeing him laughing. My eyes were glued on his beautiful face. My eyes were taking in all his manly features, starting from his deep eyes to his straight nose to his pink lips to his perfect jawline. He looked like some Greek God. I was constantly staring at him like he is the most amazing thing in this world, and maybe he is! The rest of the things around us faded like they never existed. In that moment, it felt like there were only two of us present in this world. His manly voice and laughter were like a music to my ear. Strangely by seeing him laughing, I felt satisfied. Why is my body behaving so strange. All these feelings are completely new to me.
I didn't notice when he stopped laughing, but when I was brought back to reality, I found myself being wrapped in his strong arms. He tightened his arms around me and brought me more close to him. My hand were now resting on his hard rock-like chest. Our faces were only few inches apart. I could smell his manly cologne and man, it was addictive! His hot breath, which was fanning over my face, sent jolts of electricity to my entire body. My heart was beating so fast that I felt like I had just run a marathon. My knees were becoming weak. I was losing myself to him and I hate myself for that. Why he has so much effect on me? No, I can't become weak in front of him! He is a man-w***e and will always remain the same. He can't change for anyone. I need to stop myself from reacting so badly to his touches. I need to stop this!
Noah brought his lips closer to my lips and was about to kiss me, when I suddenly placed my hand on his chest and pushed him away from me. What does he think of himself? Does he really think that every girl finds him sexy, hot and dashing? No Mr. Jerkhead you are wrong. Not every girl thinks that you are sexy, hot, and dashing, at least not me!
'To whom are you fooling Angela? You and I both know that you find him sexy, hot and dashing' – my inner self reminded me the truth.
Okay, I may find him hot, dashing and sexy, but he doesn't need to know that. He should know only one thing that I hate him!
"Umm.., I..., I am here to talk to you about my job," I finally told him.
But when he didn't reply, I looked up to see his face. His eyes were glued on me. I saw something pass in his eyes, but what? Was it hurt? Was he hurt because I stopped him? No, why would he get hurt because of a girl who actually holds no importance in his life, a girl who is with him just to pay back his loan. Sometimes, I wish that this is everything was true.
Before I could guess what it was, he returned to his cold self. His eyes held nothing but only coldness.
"What is there to talk about it? When I said no, then it has to be no." He coldly replied back. It actually hurts when he talks like this to me. Tears started to sting me in my eyes and were threatening to fall. But I can't show myself weak in front of the man who has no feelings for me in his heart!
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
NOAH'S POV :-
It really hurts when the person you love, pushes you away from them. I can't live without Angela, but I don't understand why she can't see this? I really get hurt when she pushes me away from her.
"Umm.., I..., I am here to talk to you about my job," she told me.
What about job? I already told her that if she wants to work, then she will have to work in my company. I want to see her in front of my eyes always. She is too innocent to face this evil world. She has always been in her parents' protection and I guess she doesn't know how cruel this world is! I have many enemies outside, who are just waiting to get one chance to hurt me or my loved ones. Being successful and being a billionaire has this one drawback, not that I complain. I just want to protect her and always keep her safe. She actually has become the most important thing in my life. I can't see her getting hurt or being in pain. Why does she want work somewhere else when she can work in her own company? Yes, her company, because whatever belongs to me, belongs to her too. She is more important to me than anything else in this world.
"What is there to talk about it? When I said no, then it has to be no." I coldly replied to her. Oh God! I am feeling so bad. I feel like hitting myself for talking so coldly to my angel.
I noticed the sudden change in her expression. It looked like she was about to cry but somehow she had managed to control herself. Her blue eyes began sparkling with the hidden tears formed in her eyes. What should I do now? Seeing her crying makes me feel like my heart has broken down into several pieces. It really hurts tol see her like this.
Without saying any damn thing, she just nodded her head and turned around to leave the office. No, Angela, please talk to me my princess. I can't bare your silence. Shout at me, hit me if you want, but don't leave like this, my princess.
Noah only you are responsible for this. You hurt her. You brought tears in her eyes. What were you saying you will never let tears come in her eyes? And look now, she is crying just because of you. You are the culprit, Noah. Only you are responsible for everything.
But I can't just leave her like that in front of my enemies. Anyone can hurt her to take revenge from me. And I can't let that happen.
So what Noah. You can't deny her because of this. She too has the right to live her life the way she wants. You have to respect her decision at any cost. If you are really so worried about her then think of some way by how her wish will also be fulfilled and she will also remain protected.
Some way... Some way... Noah.... Think of some way.
Yes got it! All time bodyguards! I will assign the head of my security as all time body-guards for her!
"Wait, you can work, but I have one condition," I told my princess. She immediately turned around and I saw her eyes shine with a glint of happiness.
*************************
■ CHAPTER 18 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"What condition?" I immediately asked Mr. Jerkhead.
What does he want now? What's his condition?
He just smirked and that made him look even more sexy. Sexy? Did I really say that? Angela, darling control yourself!
Yes, yes, you are right, my brain! Now is not the time to think about all this, its the time to make this i***t understand what I want and what I wish. But this Jerkhead is not saying anything, instead he is giving me his stupid smirk. I will wipe that smirk off his face one day!
"Now will you speak, or are you going to keep smirking at me whole day, Mr. Jerkhead?" I impatiently asked him. But the next moment my eyes were widened in shock and my hands were on my mouth, stopping it from saying anything more stupid again.
Wait! Did I really called him Jerkhead on his face? Oh God! Please save me from this beast, this devil or whatever dangerous thing you can come up with.
His smirk immediately vanished and now he had that curious and astonished look on his face. Now I wish that that smirk was better than this.
I am really going mad! One moment I myself want to wipe that smirk off his face, and the other moment I think that that smirk looked better on his face than this astonished look. This man will surely make me mad one day!
Mr. Jerkhead started walking towards me. He is striding towards me in the same way a lion strides towards his prey. Is he going to kill me? What will he do? God, please save me!
Finally he came and stood very close to me, looking at me with his sharp eyes. I didn't dare to look in his eyes, and started looking at my feet like they are the most wonderful thing in the world at the moment.
Suddenly he placed his one finger under my chin and with one swift movement he made me look up at him.
"What did you just say?" He asked me, looking straight into my eyes.
I started looking everywhere but him.
"Look at me Angela," He told me, but still I didn't look at him, "Angela, look at me," He said again but this time being more serious. So I obeyed and looked at him directly into his eyes. But it was a wrong decision. I got lost in his damn deep eyes. I was mesmerized by his eyes and my mind stopped working. He immediately put his one hand around my waist and pulled me hard into his rock hard chest. I could feel his well built muscles under me. His other hand went up and held my cheek. With his thumb, he started making soft circles on my cheek. That was it! My whole body lost control and no part of my body was under my control anymore! My knees started becoming weak and jolts of electric current started passing down my spine. A moan was on the verge of escaping from my mouth but I suppressed it by biting and crushing my lower lip in between my teeth. My assault was so harsh that I could even feel blood oozing out from my lip. Noah's thumb which was making circles on my cheek immediately stopped and instead now came over my lower lip. Noah gently pulled my lip out from between my teeth. He lowered his head even more. Now our lips were only few inches apart. I could feel his hot breath fanning over my lips. My lips started trembling now and every cell of my body was craving for him. He started licking the blood, which was on my lip, with his tongue. His action made me crave for him even more. My eyes closed on their own. My heart started beating very fast. My breaths started getting heavy and my mind was blank like in the state of coma. I was inwardly craving for him to kiss me immediately. And as if he can read my mind, he immediately placed his lips upon mine and started kissing me passionately. He pulled me even more into his rock hard chest. I could feel his well toned muscles and body under my hands. He licked my lower lip with his tongue, asking me permission to get in. My lips parted on their own without waiting for me to decide anything. And as soon as my mouth opened, Noah placed his tongue in my mouth. Jolts of pleasure started passing down my spine. Both of our tongues started dancing in complete sync, but Noah's tongue was definitely dominating mine as I didn't have enough experience and so I allowed him to take the lead. My hands on their own encircled around his neck and started playing with his soft hair. Noah was kissing me with so much passion that it felt like I was the breath he needs to live alive. The thought itself made me feel contented and satisfied which I don't know why. I was just enjoying the moment and always wanted to capture it in my mind as a beautiful memory.
After kissing the hell out of each other, we finally broke the kiss. Noah placed his forehead against mine and we both started breathing heavily, as we were both out of breath due to our long passionate kissing.
"Only I have the right to assault that lip of yours. No one can do that, except me. Not even you, my princess." Noah said huskily.
Oh God! His voice is so seductive. I am already wet for him and his voice is taking me to another land. But how would it feel when he would ride me? I am sure he would be amazing, because he is probably the sexiest man alive. He would give me immense pleasure... Oh no! Wait! What the hell was I thinking? No, no, no... I didn't think about that, did I? s**t! s**t! s**t!
My eyes widened in shock and my cheeks started heating up at the mere thought. I was being desperate about him. I have never acted like this before. So why now, Angela?
*************************
■ CHAPTER 19 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Thinking about me love?" Noah asked me.
What? How did he know that I was thinking about him? Does he have some super power?
"No, I was thinking nothing," I replied.
But he raised his brows in question and again a devilish smirk spread on his face. Oh God, he and his stupid smirks!
"Liar. I know you were thinking about me. Because only I can make you blush like this," He said and striked his finger lightly against my cheek.
Oh! So this stupid blush has said him everything. But I can't confess in front of this jerkhead that I was thinking about him.
"Oh this blush! This blush is because I was thinking about Ian Somerhalder. He is just so hot!" I replied to him.
Suddenly the smirk on his face vanished, and he held me more tightly than before. My breasts were striking against his hard chest. I could feel his well built muscles and his six packs. The butterflies started flying hard in my stomach. And with each passing moment, they were getting more immense. My heart started beating heavily again. My breathing became heavy again.
Suddenly, before I could think anything else, Noah again placed his lips on mine. He bit my lower lip asking me for entrance. I refused by not opening my mouth. I can't let him control me like this! But suddenly his one hand made its way to my ass and he gently squeezed it making me open my mouth for him. He again started kissing me hard, but this time it was not passionate, but something like possessiveness. Something which tells me that I am only his! After kissing the hell out of me, he finally left my mouth, but started trailing soft kisses along my neck. A moan escaped from my mouth when he kissed the sensitive spot on the hollow of my neck.
"Angela, you are mine and only mine. Only I have the right to touch you in this way and no one else, princess, no one else." Noah whispered across my skin, his voice sending vibrations to my whole body and making butterflies fly harder in my stomach. I wanted to tell him that I am only his and I will never allow anyone but him to touch me in this way, but somehow stopped myself from saying that. I didn't want to boost his already boosted ego.
Wait! Wait! Wait! What am I thinking? It means I want him to touch me in this way? What is wrong with me? Firstly I am allowing him to kiss me, like I am his girlfriend. And secondly..... What secondly? s**t, I forgot! Dean is also in the office with us! Did we really kiss each other in front of him? No, no, no! I am surely going to die of embarrassment!
My eyes widened again, and I immediately pushed Noah away from me. I started looking in the direction where Dean was standing, but he was not there. I looked in the entire office but he was nowhere to be found. Where did he go? And how can he go? We are standing near the office door and I didn't notice him leaving the office.
As if reading my mind, Noah suddenly replied,
"He left the office," he said.
"When and how? I mean we are standing near the door and I didn't see him going out," I asked, with confusion spread all over my face.
"He left when you were trying to seduce me and for how, there is another door in this office which lets you go out of this office." He replied.
Oh. I get it.... no wait. I was seducing him? What the hell, Mr. Jerkhead?
*************************
■ CHAPTER 20 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"What did you just say? I was seducing you? Oh hello, I was not seducing you. You were the one who kissed me first, and that too without my permission." I stated, narrowing my eyes at him and folding my arms across my breasts.
He just shrugged his shoulders and went towards the office table. After reaching it, he stood there, slightly relaxing his body, by bending slightly with the table's support, with both his arms besides him, resting his hands on the table and his legs crossed. Wow! He looked adorable, like some model has come out of a fashion magazine. He looked hot and dashing. I had the urge of going there and ruffling his soft hair with my hand. But no, I need to control myself. I cannot show him that he affects me a lot. I cannot become weak in front of him. He is a player, and he charms all his mistresses in the same way. But I can't make a fool of myself in front of this womanizer. I can't let him use me and throw me like a tissue paper. No, never will I let him take advantage of me!
Suddenly someone wrapped their arms around me from back and pulled me towards themselves. I went and hit a rock hard wall, I mean a rock hard chest of someone, and by someone, I mean Mr. Jerkhead. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't notice him coming towards me. He wrapped his arms more tightly around my waist and pulled me even more closer to him. I could feel his breath fanning over my neck. Again the butterflies started flying hard in my stomach. No matter how much I try to fly them away, they still come back again and again. My efforts of resisting Noah always fail whenever I am around him. But I need to stop this. I can't become weak. If I want to protect my self-respect from getting crushed under his feet, then I need to stop all this! I need to stop him!
I immediately pulled his arms away, from around my waist and freed myself from his embrace. My body immediately started missing the heat, which was radiating from his body. I started craving for his touch, but no matter what, I have to control myself. I finally turned around, and stood facing him. He looked completely confused on my sudden change of behaviour. He tried to approach me again, but I stopped him by showing him my hand. I took a deep breath to get a hold on myself and finally spoke,
"Mr. Noah, I don't know about you, but I definitely don't like to waste my time on such stupid things. So please let's come directly to the main point. Now tell me what your condition is, Mr. Noah?" I told him.
For a few seconds, he did nothing but kept looking at me. I averted my gaze to avoid looking in his deep mesmerizing eyes. I know I will get lost in them. Suddenly he again wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. Why can't he stop touching me and coming so near to me?
He brought his face near to my hair and started smelling them, his hot breath fanning on my neck, sending bolts of electricity to my whole body. I looked in the other direction and closed my eyes to get a hold on myself.
"You smell so good, princess. You are addicting like some drug. Don't run away from me, sweetheart, because the more you will run away from me, the more closer I will get to you. Just remember one thing, I will never ever leave you in my entire life and will never let you go away from me, princess. You are mine and only mine. Do whatever you want, but I will never go away from you. I will always be there for you, sweetheart. Just remember this thing for your whole life, princess." He told me.
His words put my heart to satisfaction and happiness. I know he is lying, but still his words pleased and satisfied me. I wish all his words were true. But I know all this is nothing but a lie!
"And for that condition, you can do the job wherever you want, princess, but you will always be under the watch of the bodyguards."
*************************
■ CHAPTER 21 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
My eyes immediately opened in shock. I pushed him away from me and finally freed myself from his warm embrace. Is he out of his mind? Bodyguards? What the hell is wrong with him? Has he gone mad? Who am I? A royal princess? A superstar? Or a super hot billionaire business woman? Oh gosh, I am none of these! Then why the hell would I need bodyguards? It's not like people are dying to stalk me, or kidnap me, or hell kill me? I don't need any bodyguards. They will take away all my privacy. They will follow me everywhere, like my shadow. Will they follow me even in loo? Gosh, what am I thinking? Obviously they will not follow me there! But whatever, I can't bare someone following me all the time, or even watching me like I am a little girl. Oh God, I am an independent girl and I very well know how to take care of myself. What the hell does this Jerkhead thinks of me? Does he really think that I am candy sucking child, who can't take care of themselves? Oh God, now this man is getting on my nerves.
"Are you crazy? Or are you drunk? Why the hell do I need bodyguards? Do you think I am a child, who can't take care of herself? Listen, Mr. Noah, I had enough of your stupidity. Firstly you speak and act like you care for me, like you have some feelings for me, which I very well know that there are none. You care for nobody but yourself. You are an egoistic and arrogant manwhore, who cares for no one. You play with everyone's feelings and then dump them. And secondly you are saying me that you think I am incapable of taking care of myself. You doubt my abilities, don't you, Mr. Noah? But think whatever you want, because I don't give a damn about what you think. I am not going to let you keep your damn bodyguards watching me all the time. Or... Wait, wait, wait, Mr. Noah! Do you think that I will cheat you behind your back? Is that the reason you are keeping me under your bodyguards' watch?," I told him, but he just remained quite. Oh so he really thinks that I will cheat him and this is the reason he wants his bodyguards to watch me. What the hell is wrong with this man? "Oh God! Mr. Noah, how much more low will you fall? I am not desperate like you. Unlike you, I don't stab people on their back. I know this marriage is nothing but a forced marriage for me, but trust me I will always remain faithful to you, no matter what. I am..." I was speaking when suddenly he interrupted me, by pulling me in his arms and smashing his lips again mine. This time, his kiss was rough. His hands started wandering everywhere along my body. He tightly squeezed my ass and then my breast, making me moan in his mouth. His tongue started doing wonders in my mouth. Butterflies started making my stomach flutter in pleasure. But still my mind was instructing me to stop this! And so I did that. I pushed him away from me but he didn't leave me and pulled me closer again. Now I had enough of all this. So this time I pushed him away from me, a little harder than before and slapped him hard on his cheek.
Wait! Wait! Wait! What did I just do? I slapped him. Oh God, what was going on in my mind? Mr. Jerkhead started looking at me in astonishment and his jaw almost hitting the ground. His hand was across his cheek, may to ease the stinging sensation which was caused by the hard slap. I feel bad for him. My intention was not to slap him, but anyhow I did that. I really feel guilty for doing that, but I won't apologize to him, because this is nothing in front of what he thought of me. He thinks I am a slut, who likes to be with many men. Disgusting! How can he think of me in that way?
"This is what you get when you come near to me, Mr. Noah. I know that you think I am like you, but the truth is I am not. If I were like you, I wouldn't have been virgin yet. I would have lost it a long time before. So stop thinking that all people are like you, Mr. Noah. Because not everyone is disgusting like you." I said, pointing my index finger at him.
But suddenly he eyes started sparkling and a huge smile came on his face. Now what? Did I say something funny?
"Really? You are virgin yet? It means that I would be your first. And trust me I will make sure that I am only your last."
What the hell? Out of all the things I said, he just got this? Did he really just hear that I am virgin and nothing else? This man is impossible!
*************************
■ CHAPTER 22 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Seriously Noah? Out of all the things I said, you just heard this? Are you crazy? Do you want me to take you to some psychiatrist? I really think you need to see one. I said so many things, but you only heard that I am virgin. You seriously are impossible Noah," I said and shook my head in disbelief.
But suddenly he again wrapped his arms around my waist and again pulled me closer to him. He dug his head in the crook of my neck. I could feel him breathing against my skin, with his each breath making me lose my control even more. He sucked the sensitive spot on my neck making me moan in pleasure. Butterflies started flying harder and harder in my stomach. He continued his assault by licking my skin. I held him tightly to gain support as my knees decided to betray me. I could feel him smiling against my skin.
"Princess, you drive me more and more crazier with each passing moment. You always ignite the fire within me. I can never get enough of you. You are like a drug I am addicted to." His voice against my skin, made me shiver in pleasure. Sparks of electricity passed down my spine. His hands started wandering all over my body. He gently squeezed my breast, making me moan in pleasure again. He started leaving light kisses all over my neck.
Noah started moving his hands on the inner aspect of my thighs. My inner self started exploding like a wild cat. I wanted to eat him whole in just one bite.
"Princess, you will work under my bodyguards' watch or your father will go behind bars. Now its your wish what you want to chose," Noah said against my skin.
It took me some time to understand what he was saying. My mind was not working properly due to his assault. But as soon as I got hold on myself, I freed myself from his capture.
"Can I get a glass of water?" I told him, looking directly into his eyes. He was confused at first, because he didn't expect this reaction from me. I guess he was expecting me to slap him or shout at him, but I couldn't help, I badly needed water. Anyhow he finally decided to give me what I have asked for. He went towards the table, picked up a glass of water from there and extended it for me to take. I quietly took it from him and brought it closer to my lips, when suddenly someone splashed water on Noah, and by someone I mean myself. Yes I threw the entire water on his face. What the hell does this man think of himself? He is blackmailing me again? What is wrong with this jerkhead?
I looked at him only to see him looking at me, with astonishment in his eyes and his jaw hitting the ground,
"This is to extinguish the fire which is burning inside you, Mr. Noah. Never play with the fire. It can be dangerous. So you better learn to be in your limits. Get that," I told him, turned around and started walking towards the door.
When I reached the door, I again turned around to look at him,
"And yes, tell your bodyguards too to stay away from fire before it burns them. They are going to play with it and trust me they never know when it will hurt them." I told him and with that I finally left the office, closing the door loudly behind me.
*************************
■ CHAPTER 23 :-
NOAH'S POV :-
My princess asked me whether I am keeping her under my bodyguards' watch because I don't trust her, because I think that she will cheat me behind my back? What the hell! I can never think of her like that! Why does she thinks wrong of me everytime? I want bodyguards for her because I just want to protect her and keep her safe, and not because I think she will cheat me. But before I could say any damn thing, she took my silence in the wrong way. She thought that I don't trust her and started giving me explanations. I didn't want any explanations from her because I trust her truly. So I smashed my lips against her soft ones. God, she tastes so good! I can kiss these lips all day and night and still I will never get enough of them. This time our kiss was rough. I squeezed her ass and she moaned in my mouth. Oh, I love that sound! Then I moved my hands up and gently squeezed her breast, making her again moan in my mouth. But suddenly, she pushed me away from her and hardly slapped me directly on my cheek. What the hell! No one can do this to me but her. If someone else would have done this to me, I would have destroyed their life. But she is my princess. No doubt she will be punished for this but in a different way. I will punish her when she will be under me in my bed. But still she slapped a little hard because I am still feeling the stinging sensation. I started to move my hand on my cheek and she continued saying. But suddenly one thing caught my attention. She just said that she is virgin yet. Dammit! She said she is virgin! God, it means I would be her first and I would be her last also. She will be mine and only mine. My princess yet doesn't know what actual pleasure is, but no worry darling, I will teach you everything. I will spoil you from a good girl to my naughty princess. I will make you feel things which you have never felt before. Only I will be the reason for your happiness, my love.
I again took her on my arms and dug my head in the crook of her neck. I sucked the soft spot on her neck and she moaned in pleasure. God, her moaning itself turns me on! How am I supposed to control myself? I started licking her skin. She tightly held me and I couldn't stop myself from smiling against her skin. I squeezed her breast and started leaving soft kisses all over her neck. I then started moving my hands on the inner aspects of her thigh and she started shaking in pleasure.
I thought that it was the correct time to convince her to do as I say. So I told her that she will work under my bodyguards' watch or her father will go behind bars. Yes, I know what I did was wrong. I shouldn't have blackmailed her. I shouldn't have taken advantage of her weakness. But what else can I do? She leaves me with no other option. I guess she has taken a pledge to never listen to me.
But she suddenly asked me for a glass of water. This was not what I was expecting. I stared at her for a few seconds but finally did as she said. She brought the glass to her lips but suddenly she threw the water on me. What the hell? My jaw was wide open and trust me it might also be hitting the ground. She is not just innocent but a smart and fierce wild tigress. She told me to warn my bodyguards to stay away from fire before it burns them. God! She really is a fire, but I love to play with fire because I am Noah, Noah Roberts! A wicked smile came on my lips!
*************************
■ CHAPTER 24 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
(2 days later)
The sun-rays falling over my face, made me to open my eyes. New day, new job- that's what it is for me today. Yeah, today I start my new job! Yesterday, I went to give an interview and luckily they found me perfect for the job. It is a well-known company run by some Mike Carter. He is a young entrepreneur. He is only 27 years old, but has achieved a huge success in life. He is hot and dashing. Well these are not my thoughts. These are the thoughts of girls working there. But whatever they say, no one can be more hot than Noah. No one can have the charm he has. That is the reason, girls are mad after him. I have seen them checking him out, and that too openly, without any shame. How can they do that? I feel like taking their eyeballs off their eyes. Yes, yes, I don't know why but I really feel jealous. After all, they can't check the guy I am soon going to marry.
What the hell? Whatever I might be thinking, but my thoughts always come to end at him. i***t! Its like he is hovering over my brain 24/7. Whatever! I rolled my eyes at my own stupid thoughts.
Now is not the time to think all this. I have to get ready for the job. I don't want to be late on my first day itself, right? So, Angela here you go. I directly went into the bathroom.
After 45 minutes I came out and immediately started getting ready for the work. I did my hair, put some lip gloss, eyeliner and woah I was ready. I don't like to cake up my face with all that make-up. So I kept it simple.
After having some breakfast and greeting my parents and my little brother, I came out of the house to find Noah's bodyguards waiting for me. Seeing me, one of them immediately opened the door for me. I wished them good morning and they did the same. After all, I am angry with their boss and not them. I gave them one last smile before entering the car.
The whole ride to the office was silent. My office is only half kilometres away from the Noah's office. This building is not as huge as Roberts' company building, but its huge compared to others. After all no one can beat the Roberts', right?
The bodyguard, whose name I found out to be Dave, opened the door for me. I immediately got out and entered the office building. Greeting the receptionist, I immediately went towards the lift as the place where I am going to work is on the 5th floor. I entered the lift and the door was about to close when suddenly a hand barged in and stopped it from getting closed. The doors opened again to reveal a man, who was good looking but not as hot and dashing as Noah.
I internally slapped my brain for again thinking about him. Can't that man leave my mind even for few seconds? I think I am getting mad these days. I shook my head to remove all unwanted thoughts. The guy entered the lift, looking and smiling at me. But I don't know why I didn't feel like smiling back at him. There seemed to come strange feelings seeing that guy, like he is not a good one. Well, I know I am overreacting. How can I judge someone without even knowing their name. Stupid Angela! So keeping my thoughts aside, I finally smiled at him.
"New here?" Out of nowhere, he asked me this.
"Yes," I didn't feel like talking more with him. So I kept it a simple yes.
"I guess then you don't know who I am?" He asked me.
"No, who are you?" Now was my turn to ask.
He offered his hand for me to shake and introduced himself,
"Well then Miss Beautiful. This is Mike Carter here. The owner of this company." He told me.
******************************
■ CHAPTER 25 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
At first, I was embarrassed because I couldn't recognize the boss of the company, for which I am going to work. Sounds stupid, right? But yes, it was the truth. It didn't come to my mind to find out more about the boss or to google about him, because I didn't think I would ever come across him. I am going to work in an entirely different section of the company, dealing with the interior designing, as an assistant to Mrs. Ashley Addison. I am going to work on 5th floor and the office of the the boss, I mean of Mr. Carter is on the 10th floor. So I assumed that we might never even come across each other and so I found it useless to google about him, but I guess, I was wrong again.
Recovering from my embarrassment, I finally looked up at him to only see him looking at me with astonishment.
I cleared my throat and shook his hand, introducing myself to him,
"Hello Mr. Carter. Nice to meet you. I am Angela Anderson and I am going to work for your company as an assistant to Mrs. Ashley Addison." I told him.
"Nice to meet you too, Miss Beautiful." Saying that he kissed my hand softly.
What the hell? How can he do that? Does he behave with all his employees in this way? I guess he doesn't know how to behave professionally. He should take classes from Noah. What? No Noah, not now. I shook my head to remove all the unwanted thoughts and immediately pulled my hand back from his hold. Instead of talking more with him, I preferred to look forward and wait for my floor to come. When my floor came, I immediately left the lift, without giving him even one last glance.
I went to Mrs. Ashley's office and she immediately took me to my office. It was small and not as big as hers, but it was alright for me. She was telling me about what I was going to do when suddenly, a man came inside and she excused herself to talk with him. She was discussing something with him, actually more like arguing with him on some matter. Till their argument gets over, I preferred watching my office closely and started thinking of the interior designing I could do in it. Suddenly someone cleared their throat, bringing me out of my imaginary planning. I looked up to see Mrs. Ashley looking at me. The man was nowhere to be found. I guess he went away while I was busy in imaginary planning.
"Angela, you are not going to work here," Mrs. Ashley told me.
What? Why? What did I do? I didn't even start my work! How can they do that? How unprofessional!
"Why Mrs. Ashley? You can't do that to me. You can't remove me from the job for no reason. I am not going leave like this. I want a proper reason." I told her.
"Oh my girl, just cool down. First listen to me fully. You are not going to work here on this floor, but on the 10th floor of this building." She explained me.
"What? But why? I am your assistant and so I should work with you. Why would I work on 10th floor?" I asked her.
She was about to say something when a manly voice cut her in between,
"Because you are going to work under me as my assisstant's assistant."
I looked behind Mrs. Ashley only to find Mr. Carter standing there, looking and smirking down at me.
*************************
■ CHAPTER 26 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Angela, bring a cup of coffee in my office now." With that he ended the call.
This is the fifth time he has called me to come in his office in the last one hour. Sometimes he needs some file, sometimes he needs me to copy down things and now he needs coffee. Well this is the third time he has asked for a coffee. How can someone need coffee for the third time in one hour?
Rebecca once offered him to bring his coffee, but no he only wants me to bring him coffee in his office. Well you might be thinking who is Rebecca. She is Mr. Mike's assistant and my junior boss. Yes junior, because my senior boss is this man who drinks coffee for three times in one hour.
I don't understand whether I am appointed here to do interior designing job or to make coffee for this man? It would have been better if I would have joined some cafeteria. Maybe this is what happens when you are inexperienced. So get going Angela or he will call again.
I went to the kitchen, made his coffee and went to his office. I knocked the door and he immediately ordered me to come in.
"Sir, your coffee," I told him and placed his coffee on his table.
"How many times do I have to tell you that I am Mike for you and not sir?" He said raising his eyebrows at me.
"Sorry sir, I forgot. Oh sorry, I mean Mike. If you are done then can I leave?" I asked him.
"No, sit down. I want you to copy these things from this sheet to that file," he said, giving me a sheet and a file.
I huffed, but finally sat down.
After about five minutes, it came to my mind that I have left my phone in my office. Noah had told me that he will call me after one hour. Yes he has allowed me to join a job only at the condition that I will take to him every one hour. What a crazy man? I stood up to go but Mike stopped me,
"Where are you going?" He asked me.
"I forgot my phone in my office. So just going to bring that," I replied.
"No, you sit down. I will go and bring. I need this file to be completed in half an hour. The client will be here soon to take this file. So you just focus on completing it." He told me.
"Okay," with that I just nodded my head and again sat down to complete my work.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
NOAH'S POV :-
"Hello," a manly voice told.
What the hell? Who is this man who has picked up my Angela's phone? And why is he having Angela's phone?
"Who are you? And where is the owner of this phone?" I asked him.
"Well I am the boss of the owner of this phone, Mr. Mike Carter. Who are you?" He asked me.
My eyes widened listening his name.
What the hell, Angela is working for that bastard? He is a womanizer, a man w***e and my Angela, my Angela is innocent. I can't let her work with him.
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 27 :-
NOAH'S POV :-
What the hell is all this? I know I have promised Angela that I will stay away from her work life. For keeping bodyguards with her, she had a condition that I shouln't interfere with her work life. For the same reason, I didn't ask her the company name she is working for. Well okay, I asked several times but she was feisty and wouldn't tell that. I would have asked my bodyguards this morning, but this stupid meeting came in between. So I decided to directly call Angela instead of calling my bodyguards. And this is what I get now. Mike Carter, the womanizer, manwhore is my Angela's boss. How can she work for that womanizer? No she can't work for that man. I don't care if she doesn't like me interfering with her work life. But she won't work there.
Suddenly the car stopped. I immediately got out of the car and rushed towards Mike's office. Yes I know on which floor he works. I passed the receptionist, who was trying to stop me first, but when she realized who I am, she immediately picked up the phone and started calling someone. I know who she is calling.
Immediately entering the lift, I pressed the floor button and in just few seconds, lift took me to that floor. But as soon as the lift opened, there stood the devil in front of me, with his evil smile on his face. Trust me, if he doesn't stop this, I will break all his teeth in addition to his nose.
Without talking to him, I tried to walk past him, but he being himself wouldn't allow me do that.
"Mike, leave my path," I angrily hissed.
"Woah Noah. It rhymes. Yeah it rhymes, Woah Noah. Why are you in so much hurry. And what are you doing in my office, Woah Noah?" He told me.
I pulled him by his collar,
"Stop calling me that. And where is my Angela? Tell me where is she?" I told him.
"My Angela? Your no Angela works here... Okay okay wait. You mean the new girl named Angela working for me is your Angela. You mean she is your new slut. But she didn't look like one. How is she in bed? I would love to taste her." As soon as these word's left his mouth, he was on the floor. His mouth was bleeding but I don't give even a s**t.
I again pulled him by his collar,
"Don't you dare say that again. Or else you will no more be alive. She is not a slut. She is my fiancée. Stay away from her Mike, just stay away from her." I told him.
"What are you doing here, Noah?" Suddenly Angela asked me, coming towards us.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
ANGELA'S POV :-
What is Noah doing here? And what the hell has he done to Mr. Mike? Oh God, this guy is crazy. He needs some mental treatment. Can't he just behave like a decent man for even once?
"What are you doing here, Noah?" I asked him.
He was holding Mr. Mike's collar but listening my voice, he left it.
I went towards them and helped Mr. Mike to get up,
"What have you done to him, Noah? I told you to stay away from my work life. But no Mr. Great Noah can't do that. He has to interfere in everything." I told him.
"Angela, first of all stay away from this man," saying that he pulled me away from Mr. Mike. It was good that he balanced himself or he might have fallen again. Poor him.
"Angela, you are not working here. Leave this job. We will find a better job for you. But you can't work with him. You know who the hell is he? He is a manwhore, a womanizer and a bastard. He plays with women's feelings. He uses them and then throws them like a used tissue. No Angela no, you can't work here." He told me.
I knew it that something is wrong with this Mike guy. I had a feeling of him being bad. I myself wouldn't want to work with him now, knowing that this man is so cheap. But I can't leave my job, because if I leave my job now, Noah would think that he can control me. He will always command me in the same way. I can't let him master me. I will not leave the job, but I will make sure that this Mike guy stays away from me. And above all, count this as a punishment for Noah for blackmailing me. I will teach him some lesson. This is going to be fun.
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 28 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
I pulled Noah away from Mike, into a corner, so that Mike could not listen our conversation.
"Stop it, Noah! Who do you think am I? A small girl, who can't take care of herself. No Mr. Noah, I am very well efficient to take care of myself. You don't need to worry for me. And about leaving job, I am not leaving this job. Not you, but I am the one who has the right to take this decision. So now stop over-reacting and go to work," I told Noah.
Saying that I turned my back towards Noah and started walking towards Mike. Well a smirk immediately came on my face. Now pay for blackmailing me Mr. Noah.
I went to Mike and giving him support, I started taking him towards his office. Well I very well knew that Noah was watching us. Actually that's what I wanted.
As soon as we reached in the office, I closed the door and immediately moved away from Mike, withdrawing his support on me.
"You can walk by yourself from here. I am not here to be your nurse, but your assistant. So I better continue my work now." I told Mike.
Well I felt like laughing my stomach out seeing his face. He looked at me wide-eyed, like I have grown horns on my head.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
"Sir, the work you gave me has finished. Can I leave now?" I asked Mike.
That manwhore has kept me sitting in his office whole day. He gave me work and asked me to complete it in front of his eyes. I know what was going on in his head. i***t!
"No wait Angela. I will drop you at your home." He offered me.
No ways. I am not going with you Mr. Manwhore.
"No thank you sir, I have my car and my bodyguards waiting for me." I told him.
"Bodyguards? Really? Noah has kept his dogs behind you. What a creature he is! So possessive and harsh," Mike told me.
How dare he say such words against my Noah? That i***t insulted my Noah in front of me.
Wait. My Noah? When did this happen? He has forced me to marry him. Not like we are in love. I think something is wrong with me. No not with me, with my stupid mind who has started calling Noah mine.
I shrugged to remove these thoughts way from my head.
"Mr. Mike. You are my boss. But this doesn't mean you have the right to insult my soon to be husband. Noah has appointed bodyguards for me so that I can remain safe. As you know, many people are jealous of Noah and can go at any level to hurt him. So for my own safety he has appointed bodyguards. Got it Mr. Mike! Now I think I should leave. See you tomorrow, sir." I told Mike.
Saying that I turned around and made my way towards the elevator. It didn't take long to reach the basement, where the car was waiting for me. Well that's what I thought, but there was neither the car nor the bodyguards. I searched all around but no one was there. After looking everywhere, I decided to finally take a cab.
I started walking when suddenly I stumbled on a stone and was about to fall. But suddenly someone held me in their arms and balanced me. I thought it was Mike, but as soon as I lifted my head up, two beautiful eyes met mine. I was lost in those eyes, when suddenly that two arms forced me towards themselves and a pair of lips met mine. The kiss was rough. It was a mixture of desire, anger and possessiveness. Oh my Noah, you make butterflies fly wildly in my stomach every time when I am near you!
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 29 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Butterflies were flying hard in my stomach. On the top of that Noah started making circles with his thumb on my cheeks. Bolts of electricity passed down my spine. My knees started getting weak. I don't remember when I started kissing him back. After kissing for minutes Noah finally left me and rested his forehead over mine. We kept standing there, gasping for breath like both of us have run an olympic race. No thoughts came into my mind. My mind was like a blank paper. Only happiness for some unknown reason overtook me.
"Angel, please don't work here. We will find you a better job," Noah said still gasping for air. And it took me few minutes to realise what he actually was speaking. As soon as my mind started working again, I finally realized what we were actually doing? No! What I was actually doing? Kissing him back? What the hell is wrong with me?
I immediately pushed him away from me, making him look at me with wide eyes.
"Look Noah. You told me to keep bodyguards and I agreed for that. But my work place is none of your business," I told Noah.
He took one step near me and I immediately took one step back. He shook his head in disappointment but finally stopped coming near me.
"None of my business? Seriously Angela? It is my business to protect my soon-to-be-bride. I can't leave you alone with that manwhore." Noah told me.
"Alone? I do not work alone with him Noah. I am his assisstant's assistant. And also there are many other people working in this office. So now stop overreacting and let me go home." I told him.
Noah took a deep breath, thinking something to himself. After a minute, he finally started shaking his head,
"Fine. I won't overreact. But you are not going home now." He told me.
"Means? If I don't go home, where else would I go?" I asked him in confusion.
"We are going out for a dinner date!" He stated as if it was a universal fact.
Come on buddy, date is of two persons and I don't even get a say in that. He didn't even ask me, rather he ordered me.
"Like this? No, I can't go like that," I stated him pointing at myself and my clothes. I can't go to a date in my work clothes, right?
Suddenly he grabbed my hand and pushed me towards himself. He rested his head in between my hair and started smelling them.
"Don't worry darling. You always look like a princess, my princess. I accept you in the way you are. And if you are trying to dress up to impress someone else then forget the thought as I will beat the s**t out of that man." He told me.
This man! He only thinks about such useless things. Why would I try to impress someone else when I have sexiest man standing in front of me.
Woah! Sexiest! Control your emotions Angela or you will go mad.

■ CHAPTER 30 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
I pushed Noah a little to make some distance between us. He has started affecting me a little. No! Actually a lot! Yes, he has started affecting me a lot! I hate him for blackmailing me, but at the same time I want to be with him. When he comes close to me, butterflies fly wildly in my stomach and his hot breath, touching my bare skin, sends bolts of electricity pass down my spine. My knees get weakened when he comes close to me. All these things are foreign to me. So better stay away from him.
I was in the middle of my thoughts, when suddenly my feet lost contact with the earth. Noah had carried me in his arms,
" What are you doing? Put me down! I will fall!" I screamed at him.
He narrowed his eyes at me while walking and said,
"Do you really think that I will let you fall? Uhhh, you hurt me Angel. I didn't expect that from you." He made a puppy dog face with his eyes sparkling brightly.
Did he really do that? Oh my God! I can't believe that man like him will ever make that face. He looked so cute! Yes for the first time, he didn't look sexy or something else but cute. I think this is the first and the last time he did that. I guess he has hit his head somewhere.
"I didn't," he told me.
"Huh? What?" I asked him with a confused face. What was he talking about?
"Darling, I didn't hit my head somewhere," he told me, with a devilish smirk on his face.
I bit my tongue between my teeth. How stupid Angela! You spoke so loudly that even he heard it. But wasn't I talking to myself?
"No, you were speaking loud enough for me to hear and you still are doing that," he told me and laughed loudly, with his laughter sending shivers to me.
Suddenly, he put me down and opened the front door of the car for me. I quietly got inside and he did the same and started driving the car.
"Where is your driver? And what about my driver and bodyguards? They might be waiting for me. I completely forgot about them," I told him and panicked a bit.
"Don't worry. I gave them all a leave for the day. I want some privacy tonight. We have things to do which can't be done in public," he told me and winked at me.
What the hell? What does he mean? Things to do which need privacy?
My eyes widened at the thought and I immediately turned towards the window, not looking at him anymore. This man is horrible. I rolled my eyes at the thought.
Soon we reached at a huge hotel and Noah stopped the car. Getting out of the car, he came towards my side and opened the door for me like a perfect gentleman. He offered me his hand, and I, grabbing it, got out of the car. He handed the car keys to the valet and holding my hand, he took me inside the beautiful hotel. Yes the hotel was extremely beautiful. I wondered if the outside of the hotel is so beautiful, how would it be on inside?
We reached towards the entry door of the hotel and the gatekeeper opened the door for us.
We went inside and what met my eyes was only beauty. The hotel was so huge and with beautiful interiors. There were candles lighting in all directions. The floor was covered with the balloons. Everything was just perfect. But there was no one in the hotel.
"It is beautiful. But why is there nobody in this hotel?" I asked Noah, raising one eyebrow at him.
"Darling. There is nobody here because I have booked the entire hotel for us. Didn't I mention that I need privacy today?" He told me.
What the hell? I thought he was joking. But oh God, he is serious. Why the hell does he need privacy?
*********************************
■ CHAPTER 31 :-
"Wh..a..t pri...vac...y?" I told him, but I was stuttering in between as the thought of this privacy thing had completely occupied my mind.
"That is for me to know and for you to find out, babe," he said, winking at me.
I bet my cheeks turned as red as a tomato. I was blushing at the thought, but at the same time was afraid of the thought.
I turned my head away from him, not letting him see that I was blushing.
Suddenly a finger was placed beneath my chin and turned my head around to look at Noah,
"Awww my angel, you are blushing," he told me.
"Wh..at blus..hing. I am not blushing," I tried to lie to him.
Suddenly he pulled me towards him by placing his arms across my flanks. My hands were placed on a hard masculine chest. I could feel the perfect muscles beneath that clothing. He surely works out daily for getting that perfect body.
He placed his one hand on my cheek and started making circles on my cheek with his thumb, sending bolts of electricity pass down my spine. I involuntarily closed my eyes and started savouring the moment. He then placed his head on my head, with both of our noses touching each other.
"Still not blushing darling?" He asked me.
But I was not in a situation to reply. So I just nodded my head making it a no.
He then pulled me more close to him. And kissed me near to my lips, but not on lips.
"Still no, darling?" He asked me again and I nodded a no.
He then gave me a quick peck on my lips,
"Still no, my Angel?" He asked me and I again replied by nodding a no.
And that was it. He invaded my mouth. He placed his hand in my hair and pulled my head more close to him. I still was not sure about allowing him to kiss me fully. So my lips were still closed. He then strongly bit my lower lip making me open my mouth immediately. His tongue invaded my mouth and both of our tongues started dancing in a perfect rhythm. I pulled his hair to bring him more close to me. His tongue was discovering my mouth. We were both panting hardly. But none decided to break the kiss. The kiss lasted for 5 minutes according to my guess, but it looked like it lasted forever.
We finally broke the kiss and placed our noses together, both panting hard. We caught our breath and then Noah pulled my head to look at him, by placing his finger under my chin.
He then started rubbing his thumb over my lower lip and then sucked it.
I was confused at first, but then realized that my lower lip was bleeding. What is he? Is he a werewolf?
"Your blood also tastes sexy, my darling Angela," he told me.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
■ CHAPTER 32 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Eww. Who are you? A vampire, like Ian Somerhalder in tvd?" I asked him.
"You like Ian Somerhalder, don't you?" He asked me.
"Yes I do. But how do you know?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes at him
"Because Paul Wesley was also there in tvd. But you mentioned only Ian Somerhalder." He told me.
"Yes, Paul Wesley is also good, but I love Ian Somehalder. He is so hot. He has a fabulous body, just like some Greek God..."
I was telling him but was stopped in between again by his kiss. This time the kiss was hard. I could feel something going on in his head.
He placed his one hand around me bringing me closer to him and he placed his other hand on my breast. He then pressed my breast hard enough for ne to gasp in his mouth. But he didn't allow me to break the kiss by holding my head with the hand which was previously around me. My eyes widened at his move. He has never done this before. He pressed my breast again, making me involuntarily close my eyes. His hand then moved lower on my body towards my stomach. He tucked my shirt out from my skirt which I was wearing for work. He started making circles on my stomach with his thumb, making me break the kiss and throw my head behind. His one hand continuously made circles on my stomach, while he started giving butterfly kisses on my neck. He kissed my neck, maybe at least 100 times. He then bit my collar bone, which I am sure had left a love bite there. His hand, which was on my stomach, started moving up again, but this time it was inside my shirt. I was feeling some different feeling going on in my south organs. I hope you understand what I mean. I cannot explain the feelings in words as it was first time for me. He put his hand on my breast and pressed it firmly again. His other hand then moved towards my butt. He firmly pressed my boot making electricity pass down my spin. My eyes were still closed. I didn't have the strength to open them. I was in some fantasy land. He then moved his other hand more lower on my thighs and started rubbing the inner aspect of my thighs, making me throw my head backwards and gasp. It was like he was torturing me. His mouth continuously left kisses on my neck, his one hand tortured my breast and his other hand tortured my thighs. He then moved his other hand upwards towards my perineum and tucked it inside my panties. My mind stopped working. Actually it just froze. No thoughts came in my mind. And for the first time, I wanted him to continue what he was doing. He placed his hand on my perineum and started rubbing it. Oh God, I am going to faint. He started rubbing it even harder and faster, making me grab his hair. I could feel him smirking on my neck. It was so good. It felt like heaven.
I was enjoying it when suddenly he left me and moved away from me. What the hell? Why did he stop now?
He pushed me towards the wall and encaged me by placing his both hands aside of my body. He had a devilish smirk on his face. What was that for? He already has irritated me a lot by stopping what he was doing and now he smiles like a devil. I will break his head.
"I don't like hearing any other man's name from your mouth. I don't like you dreaming of some other man. You are mine and only mine. Never ever do this again or you will get the same punishment every time you do it. Maybe a more strict punishment." He winked at me and started walking towards the table.
What the hell? He punished me just because I praised Ian Somerhalder. God, he is an actor and I love him as one loves an actor. Its not that real love. He punished and tortured me by arousing me, just because I liked Ian Somerhalder. What the hell? I just hate this i***t. I hate him a lot.
I was very angry. I dressed myself properly, tucked my shirt inside my skirt and then started walking towards the table. He was standing taking the chair out for me to sit. I took the jug placed on the table and splashed the entire water on him. It had made me lose my mind this time.
"You know what, you don't deserve a dinner with me, but this is what you deserve. You stupid, i***t man. You punished me just for praising Ian Somerhalder. Oh God, you are sick. Should I refer you some doctor's name? You should go there for consultation." I said, keeping the jug back on the table, turned around and moved straight out of the restaurant.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
■ CHAPTER 33 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"We are getting married in two weeks." Noah told me.
What the hell? First he tried to give me some stupid punishment and now he wants me to marry him within two weeks. Is he out of his mind?
"Are you again trying to punish me because I threw water on you? Look Noah, you played a stupid game, so you had to get a bad result. You started it, so I had to finish it. I am not going to agree with you everytime and anytime. You are not marrying yourself. You are marrying me. Two persons are involved in a marriage, so the opinion of both is important. But look at you, you don't care about my opinion at all. You just keep giving commands. What the hell do you think me? Am I your servant? I won't follow your commands. I am not marrying you in two weeks." I told him and immediately cut the phone.
I am tired already and I have no energy to discuss with this man anymore.
I kept the phone in airplane mode, so he couldn't call or text me. I have a job to go to tomorrow. So I need a sound sleep or else I will surely get dark circles under my eyes. Forget about this stupid irritating man, Angela. And have a good night.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
Next Day :-
"Get up Angela dear. Get up," my mother's sweet voice wakened me up.
But why my mother has come to wake me up? Did I miss my alarm? Oh no, I will get late for the job. And maybe I get fired too. No, no, no. I don't want to lose this job. Get going fast Angela.
"Good morning mom," I told my mother, while walking towards the bathroom,"I am so sorry I missed my alarm. Now I will surely get late for the job."
"Who said you missed your alarm dear?" She asked me.
I immediately turned around, still trying to figure out what she actually meant?
"Means?" I asked her.
"You didn't miss your alarm dear. I woke you up a bit early than your usual time. Mr. Noah is waiting for you downstairs dear." My mother told me.
"What is that stupid person doing here?" I asked mom.
"Angela mind your language. He is your soon-to-be-husband," Mom told me. I rolled my eyes at her statement.
"Soon-to-be-husband mom. He is not my husband yet. Forget it. What is he doing here so early in the morning?" I told mom.
"He came to discuss about the arrangements to be made for marriage," she told me.
"Marriage? What marriage?" I asked her. This man is now getting on my nerves.
"You don't know? But he told me that he had discussed this with you that you are going to get married within two weeks." She informed me.
Discussed? Discussed, my foot! He commanded me. He doesn't even care about my choice, my opinion. He doesn't respect my decisions. How mean this person is? I have never seen so harsh person in my life. God, what have you got me into?
"Angela, are you here?" Mom's voice brought me back from my thoughts.
"Yes Mom," I told Mom, "But if he has to discuss everything with Dad, then why is he waiting for me?"
"Dear you are going with him to select your marriage dress. And I bet my daughter will be the most beautiful bride anyone has ever seen." Mom told me and started crying.
I immediately went towards her and hugged her tightly, "Mom, don't cry please. You know I can't see tears in your eyes," I told her.
She patted my back, "I know dear but sometimes I get a bit more emotional. Now forget everything and get ready fast. We are waiting for you for the breakfast." Saying that she went out of my room, closing the door behind her.
But trust me. I am not going to leave this man like that. I warned him not to play with fire. But I guess he has not taken my words serious yet. I will make sure he learns his lesson well and soon.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
NOAH'S POV :-
I know I am being a bit harsh with Angela, but I don't have any other option. Everytime I meet her, I fall for her even more. She is feisty, but cute at the same time. She is the only girl who has ever dared to oppose me so many times and also the only girl to throw water on me most of the times. I laughed at my thought.
No, but I seriously didn't like the way she was admiring for Ian Somerhalder. I want to see that admiration in her eyes for me. She is mine and only mine. I got a bit jealous, okay maybe more, and I immediately kissed her. I don't know when it went so far, but luckily I got hold of me in time. My angel is virgin, and I don't want to make her lose her virginity before marriage. I love her and I want her, but when its her decision. I will have her only after her consent. But I couldn't tell her that. So I told her that that was her punishment for admiring Ian Somerhalder. But in reality I respect her consent. And I would not do anything without her consent.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 34 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Breathtakingly beautiful," Robert, the fashion designer, stated as soon as I came out of the changing room.
I was wearing a very beautiful, no, the most beautiful wedding dress in the world. The wedding gown had been designed in such a way that when I turn and move, light shines off the diamonds and creates a wonderful sparkle. Yes, it was made up of diamonds. It had around 750 diamonds placed in it. It looked really very costly. Though Noah wouldn't let me know the price, I guess the dress costs something around $30 million.
"My darling, give me your hand please," Robert asked me and I offered him my hand. He made me twirl around like a princess and I was just giggling at his act. Suddenly he left me and I fell on a hard surface. Well let me correct, I fell on a hard chest. I looked up to find Noah standing in front of me. He tightly hugged me by my waist and brought me more closer to him. Sparks of electricity passed down my spine as his hot breath touched my face. I looked in his eyes only to get lost in it. His eyes were full of desire. He rubbed the back of the fingers of his one hand on my cheek and I surely turned more red than even a tomato. I closed my eyes to savour the moment. I could feel his hot breath getting closer to my face. I could feel his lips just touching my lips, when suddenly someone cleared the throat and brought me back to reality. I immediately pushed Noah by his chest and made a distance between me and him.
"Well, well, well, I understand your young hormones, but please get a room for it. Look I don't actually mind you making it here but this is my work place and is accessible to people. So anyone may come inside anytime." Robert told us.
"Shut up, Robert! You really did a good job." Noah told Robert,"But I told you to place around 1000 diamonds in the dress and you placed only around 750."
"My dear buddy, the gown is already a bit heavy than usual. If I would have placed more diamonds, she would have fallen down due to weight," Robert told Noah.
Yes buddy. Robert and Noah are childhood friends or may be childhood best friends. But still I noticed Noah getting angry every time Robert came closer to me or touched me. This man is so much possessive. Robert and I even kept his name as lion. Always angry lion.
But wait what? Noah asked him to place 1000 diamonds? When did he order to design my wedding gown? I thought it was just by chance that I got to wear such a beautiful dress.
"You asked him to place 1000 diamonds, but when? Didn't you decide that we are getting married in two weeks just yesterday? Does it mean it was all your plan...," I told Noah, pointing at him and narrowing my eyes at him.
"No, it was not my plan. I had asked Robert to make this dress since the day I asked you to marry me." Noah told me.
"Asked? Seriously? I thought you blackmailed me," I told Noah, raising my eyebrow at him.
"Okay," Noah turned around towards Robert, "Robert where are the matching accessories?" Noah asked Robert.
Robert opened his mouth to say something, but I interrupted him in between,
"No. Actually Noah, I can't wear this dress. This is really very costly. I would wear this dress just once and then it would remain in my wardrobe. Instead of buying this costly dress, can't we just donate the amount to some orphanage or old age home or maybe help someone who is really in need of money?" I told Noah.
I really didn't want Noah to waste money on such materialistic things. Instead we can just donate the amount to the needy and get the blessings for our wedding.
"Noah, add one diamond more to the number of diamonds in the dress," Robert told Noah.
"Means?" Noah asked Robert.
"Your soon-to-be-wife is a diamond herself. I have never seen a girl denying to buy such a costly dress and instead donating the money to the needy. Girls run after money. But she, she is really a diamond herself. You are lucky man." Robert told Noah.
"Tell me something I don't know, Robert." Noah told Robert.
I looked up to see Noah looking and smiling at me.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 35 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Hungry?" Noah asked, raising an eyebrow at me.
"No," I replied instantly, but my stomach had some other plans. It growled so loudly that even the driver might have heard it. So embarrassing. Isn't it?
I am sure my cheeks might have turned red like a tomato.
"Well your stomach says something else," Noah told me, chuckling at me,
"Stop the car at the nearest McDonald's store," Noah ordered the driver.
Well strange but how did he know that I love burgers and that too of McDonald's? Maybe he might have seen me eating or telling him somewhere. Whatever!
I rolled my eyes at my own thoughts.
The car stopped and Noah immediately went out of the car, not waiting for his bodyguard to open it for him. He came on my side and like a gentleman opened the door for me.
Well gentleman do not blackmail someone to marry them. Or do they?
He offered me his hand, and I quietly took it and got out of the car.
After getting out, I tried to take my hand out of his grip, but he had some other plans. He didn't leave it and started walking hand-in-hand with me. People looked at us in awe and thought we made a great couple.
"Come on, its nothing like that!" I screamed inside my head.
After reaching the table, he pulled the chair out for me to sit and I quietly sat.
"Angela, you sit and order. I will come in a minute," Noah told me and turned around.
"But I don't know what you like," I interrupted making him look at me again.
"Whatever you like, I like. After all we are soon to be husband and wife," he said, winking at me, and speaking 'soon to be husband and wife' a bit loudly. Not again. People looked at us in awe and were chattering about how caring Noah is to me. Get out of dream, people. Its nothing like that. He is the same man who blackmailed me to marry him.
I looked up only to find that Noah had already left.
I order two chicken burger meals and was waiting for my order when suddenly someone asked me,"Babe, why satisfy only your husband. Just look around. We are here too."
I looked up to find three men staring at me. All three of them looked like some wrestlers. Well also like loafers.
I didn't reply and just sat quietly on my table waiting for Noah to come.
Suddenly one of them sat on the chair beside me and started moving his finger up and down on my hand.
"What babe? Why so shy? We are here to please you. Why afraid from us?" The man, who was sitting told me.
I slapped his hand, which was touching me and immediately got up and was about to leave when the second man standing caught me by my waist. I hit him hard on his chest, but woah no effect. I guess their wrestler body is the reason. I tried hard to get out of his hold, but no attempt worked. He turned me around and threw me in the third man's arms, who was standing.
What the hell? What I have got myself into? Why such things only happen to me? There were many girls and women in the store. But they only found me. Not that I want them to harass someone else. in fact not girl deserves to be treated this way.
I kept on hitting the third man, but no effect. He brought his face closer to me and was planning to kiss me. I pulled my face backward and pushed him but he succeeded in bringing his face close to me. God! What now? Please help me?
He smelled of alcohol. He is under the effect of alcohol. What now? Noah where are you?
And when he was just about to kiss me, I closed my eyes praying to God to help me. I can feel him coming closer. Oh God, please help.
A tear dropped from my eye. I can't see this happen. And when I felt him about to kiss me, he immediately left me.
I opened my eyes to find him laying on the ground. His mouth was bleeding. I looked up to see Noah standing with his fingers turned into a fist. I can see his muscles getting tensed. He looked really very angry and irritated.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 36 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"How dare you touch her?" Noah's voice echoed in my ear.
He turned around and gave a punch in the second man's face, making his mouth bleed and I guess he also lost one or two teeth. The third man was about to hit Noah from behind,
"Noah, watch." I shouted but before that Noah again turned around and hit the man by making his leg fly and then hit directly on his chest. I looked to see all men lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
"Are you alright?" Noah came to me and asked.
"Yes I am alright. What about you? Oh wait. You hurt your hand. Your hand is bleeding, Noah," I told Noah, taking his hand in my hand and checking it to know the severity of the damage.
Suddenly Noah held me tightly in his arms and turned around. Before I could understand anything, Noah groaned in pain. Noah left me and pushing me aside, he turned around and hit the man hard in his chest with his leg. At that time I realized that the man was coming to hit me with a chair. Noah rescued me by giving me protection and he himself got hurt. In the meantime, the police came and escorted all the three men. I guess someone in the restaurant might have called the police.
After the police left with all the three men, I approached Noah and took his hand in my hand,
"We need to go to a hospital, Noah. It is severely hurt," I inspected his hand and his face also. He was bleeding at the corner of his mouth and also his fist was also bloody red. And what about his back? Yeah, he rescued me and hurt his back,
"Why did you do that? You shouldn't have come in between. Did the chair hit too hard? Tell me is it paining there? Oh no, because of me you hurt yourself. How can I ever forgive myself. You hit..." I was speaking when suddenly he hugged me and kissed me hard. My eyes widened in astonishment. I could taste the blood bleeding from his mouth. The sparks of electricity passed down my spine. My knees were going weak and I was afraid I would fall. But luckily he left me and when he did that, all the people in the restaurant started clapping. s**t! I forgot we are in a restaurant in front of many people. My cheeks immediately turned red.
An old woman approached me and patted on my back,
"Your are lucky girl. God bless you both," she said and left. I didn't give much attention to that because my mind was busy worrying about Noah. Not that 'I have fallen for him' kind of worrying. But worrying because however playboy he may be but he is good at heart. He has a pure golden heart. He hit himself and saved me. He is really a good human being. No, no, no, I have not fallen for him, or did I?
Of course not. He is good but still a playboy. How can I fall for him?
I rolled my eyes at my own thoughts. 'Not the right time to think about all this, Angela. Take Noah to a hospital.' My mind reverted me back.
"Come on, let's go." I told Noah.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
"Nurse Leena, please come here," the voice came from behind the nurse.
"Coming," she replied back.
"I am so sorry I have to go. Actually a school bus hit the car and many children are injured including the man in the car. Can you please clean his wounds until I come back?" The nurse politely asked me.
Yes, I can see. There was too much rush in the hospital. People were in a state of chaos. Maybe they are the parents of the children who were in the bus.
"Yes sure. You may go. I will clean all his wounds." I told the nurse.
"Thank you so much," she replied and hurriedly went to the person calling her.
I took the cotton ward she was using and started cleaning Noah's wounds. I lifted my hand and was cleaning the corner of his mouth when suddenly my eyes met his eyes and just like that my breath stopped for a moment. His eyes were so mesmerizing that I got lost in them. He held me lightly by my waist and held my hand, which was cleaning his mouth, with his hand. He brought it closer to his mouth and kissed it. He turned it around and kissed it back too. I started feeling my knees getting weakened. My breath became deep and slow. Everything around vanished just like we are both alone in the hospital. Noah left my hand and pointed his finger on the other side of his mouth, asking me to clean it there too. But it was not bleeding there. Still as my mind was in a chaos, I took my hand and started cleaning it there, finding if really there was some wound. I got so involved in that that I didn't realise that mine and Noah's lips were so close to each other. I could feel his warm breath hitting my face and sending thousands of volts of current down my spine. I closed my eyes and breathed deeply to stable myself.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 37 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
My heartbeat increased. My heart was running like a mad horse. Noah gently pressed his lips against mine and softly pecked me there. I closed my eyes to have some balance on myself. He placed his hand on my cheek and started rubbing his thumb over there in circles. I definitely will start producing electricity now.
Suddenly, someone made a coughing sound and I immediately opened my eyes to see that the same nurse was standing there,
"Oh sorry to disturb you love birds, but I just forgot my kit here." She told while taking her kit and immediately went away.
Okay so now control yourself Angela. I pushed Noah away from me,
"Where else did ir hurt?" I asked Noah.
He immediately started opening the buttons of his shirt,
"O hello. What are you doing? I asked where else did it hurt. I didn't ask you to take your shirt off," I told Noah.
But he continued with what he was doing. He finally took his shirt off. I closed my eyes immediately. This man has no shame.
"Without opening your eyes, how are you going to treat my wound?" He asked me.
I opened eyes to see that there was wound on his chest too. Oh so he was taking his shirt out to show me the wound and what the hell did I think?
I shook my head to remove all unwanted thoughts out of my mind and started cleaning the wound on his chest.
He has a perfectly muscular chest with good biceps and amazing six packs, which requires lots of exercise and gym. He might have been working out hard. His chest was as hard as a rock. Tough man.
I was cleaning quietly when suddenly he came forward and my hand touched his bare chest. Volts of electricity passed down my spine again,
"Wha...what are you doing?" I asked Noah.
"Nothing. Actually there was something behind me that pushed me. But I don't know what. By the way why are you stuttering?" He told me, raising his eyebrows at me. Liar! There was nothing behind him.
"I actually... nothing. Now sit properly and let me clean it." I told Noah.
I was quietly cleaning his wounds. But from the corner of my eyes, I could see Noah constantly looking at me like I am the eighth wonder of this world. He was watching me without even blinking his eyes.
Suddenly, someone started clapping and got both of our attention. A lady in short black dress was standing there,
"Wow Noah, you truly are a player. Last night you slept with me and now you got a new girl. But I must say, you are a player in bed too. I enjoyed a lot last night. Didn't you?" The lady told Noah winking at him.
What the hell? Last night he punished me and then after playing with my feelings, this man went and slept with this lady. What a manwhore he is? He is a cheat! A liar! And what not?
Tears started building up in my eyes but I didn't want to show him that this actually affected me. It shouldn't, but I don't know why it did affect that much. I immediately left the ward and walked away. Noah held my arm but I got my arm out of his hold and immediately walked out of the room.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
NOAH'S POV :-
"What the hell, Stephanie? Why did you lie? When the hell did I sleep with you last night? I haven't even seen you since so many months. Then why did you do this?" I shouted at Stephanie.
She lied and now my Angel thinks I am wrong. She hurt her.
"You left me for that b***h. That bloody b***h," Stephanie was talking when I cut her off,
"Mind your language Stephanie. Don't you dare call her b***h again," I warned stephanie.
"Oh come on. That b***h deserved that. You left me for her. I love you more than her. Please come back to me darling. I did this just to make you realise that you are mine and no one else trusts or loves you more than me. Not even that b***h," Stephanie said, sticking to me like a chewing gum. But she forced me to cross my limits.
I held her hand and pushed her away from me,
"Stephanie, you have crossed your limits and have forced me to do the same. She is not a b***h. She is my fiancèe. Feed that perfectly in your small brain. And I will make sure that you have to pay for this," I told her and immediately walked away to find Angela.

■ CHAPTER 38 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Angela stop. Please stop Angela. Listen to me," I heard Noah shouting and coming behind me.
But I am an i***t that allowed him to play with me. He was just playing with me and my emotions. I mean nothing to him, but a tissue, which he can use whenever he wants and then throw it in garbage.
"Listen to me Angela," Noah turned me around by pulling my arm to look at him.
"What? What now? Is there anything more for me to see or hear. I guess this much is enough for today. Keep something for tomorrow too Mr. Noah." I told Noah and removed his hand from my arm. I can't take it anymore. Enough is enough! I cannot become one of his mistresses. I have my self respect too.
"Angela, whatever she said was....," he started speaking but I cut him off,
"A lie. She lied. Aww. Didn't she? Stop giving me such stupid reasons Mr. Noah. She didn't lie. You are the one who always lies. You are the one who plays with everyone's feeling. Whenever I start trusting you even a bit, the other moment you prove me wrong. Now I am done with you Mr. Noah. I free you from myself. Even our marriage won't bind you to me now. You are free to go and sleep wherever and with whomever you want. This marriage will be only for people to believe. There won't be any relationship of husband and wife between you and me. You are a free bird. Fly wherever you want and don't ever dare to touch me again," I told Noah, probing my forefinger on his chest. The tears were flowing from my eyes. I couldn't stop them.
"Fine Angela. If this is what you want, I won't force you. But I will also never give up on you. And let's make a bet, you yourself will allow me to touch you and consummate our marriage," he told me pulling me towards him.
I pushed him away from me, "That will never happen Mr. Noah." I told him.
"It will happen and you would be beneath me moaning my name and asking me to go ahead. Just wait for that moment, my princess." He said.
"That will never ever happen, definitely not in this life!" I told me and walked away from him.
I stopped a cab and drove home, crying to myself.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
"Anything wrong princess?" Dad asked me as I entered the house.
"No Dad, nothing wrong," I told him, trying hard to not to cry in front of him.
If I do that, he will never allow me to marry Noah and then that man, no, sorry, that manwhore will send him behind the bars. I can't let that happen. I can't see my family break. I will do anything to protect them and keep them safe, even if it means marrying that manwhore.
I immediately went into my room. I went into the bathroom and started washing my face. I am helpless. I can't pay him his loan and I can't see my father behind bars.
I will have to marry him. I will have to get habituated to such situations where I find myself getting betrayed by him. I will have to accept all his girlfriends and mistresses. But that doesn't mean I will lose myself to him. That will never ever happen in this life.
From tomorrow he will see a new Angela, who knows what she wants and how to get it. He will have to climb thousands of walls to reach me. There will ever be nothing between me and Mr. Noah!
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 39 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Do you take ANGELA ANDERSON as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"
"Yes I do," Mr. Noah replied.
Yes Mr. Noah! He is just Mr. Noah for me. Nothing more. He cheated me, not that I expected him not to, but still he cheated me. Though I am bound by this marriage, but I will never allow him to affect me anymore. He is free to do whatever he want and to sleep with whomever he wants. I am just his wife for name. Nothing more.
"Miss Angela, do you take NOAH ROBERTS as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"
Do I have any other option rather than saying yes?
I questioned myself. But the answer I gave myself was no. I don't have any other option. I don't know were my life would take me after this marriage? I am clueless. It is an unknown journey which I have to travel and see where I reach.
"Miss Angela, do you take NOAH ROBERTS as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?" The priest repeated.
I have no other option. A tear flowed from my eyes but luckily no one could see me as my face was covered by bridal veil.
"Yes, I do," I replied.
And that's it! Now no going back Angela!
"Go now in peace and live in love, sharing the most precious gifts you have - the gifts of your lives united. And may your days be long on this earth. I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride," the priest said while looking at Mr. Noah.
And Mr. Noah didn't wait for a second. He immediately lifted my veil up and placed his one hand on my cheek and the other hand all wrapped around me. He pulled me towards himself and kissed me deeply.
But I lightly pushed him on his chest to make him stop. There is no need to pretend like he is my husband when we both know that he doesn't love me, at least not in front of me.
He left me. My and Mr. Noah's family gathered around us and started giving their well wishes with flowers. I hope these well wishes may do something well.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
Same Day Reception Night :-
"Awww, you are so lucky Angela. You have got such a loving husband. I saw how he kissed you in the wedding. It was like he is damn thirsty and you are his water. He kissed you so hungrily and passionately that even I wished I could have him kiss me," Marylyn said while dreaming like a teenage girl.
Marylyn is the one who is responsible for getting me ready for the reception. All my makeup and clothes are handled by her.
"Don't worry go ahead," I immediately interrupted her in between.
"Huh, what?" She asked me in surprise.
"Nothing, forget it," I told her.
"Don't mind Angela. I was just kidding," she told me.
Oh, even if you were not kidding, I wouldn't have minded anything. Because this marriage is just for the sake of name and just to show others. Mr. Noah doesn't love me and doesn't care for me.
"And you are ready Angela. Please stand up," Marylyn told me and I did as she said.
"Twirl around Angela," she told me and again I did what she said.
And trust me she had done a great job. I looked like a cinderella in that red dress. I felt like I was a princess of some country. I didn't look myself. I was completely changed.
"You know Angela, Noah will be head over heels for you tonight. You look breathtakingly stunning. Tonight make him go deep for you," Marylyn said and winked at me.
"Stop it Marylyn," I told her and she got busy in giving me a final touch.
Nothing will happen tonight. in fact I am not even going to sleep on the same bed with him.
'But Angela, Mr. Noah challenged you that he will make you fall for him. What is going on in his devil head now?' I asked myself and rolled my eyes at my own thoughts.
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 40 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Congratulations to both of you, my love birds! May you love each other more and more every day!" Mrs. Smith greeted us, giving me and Mr. Noah a hug.
Love? Does love really exists in this marriage?
Ther can be no love when there is no trust. I know Mr. Noah will cheat me every other day. I don't trust him and I don't love him.
"Mrs. Noah Roberts, are you liking the party?" Noah asked me coming close to my ear, pretending like he is a perfect husband.
Whatever, I didn't want to make a scene there, so I just nodded my head in agreement.
"May I get a chance to dance with the amazing beauty standing here?" A man, in his late twenties, asked me extending his hand for me to hold,
"Only if you don't mind?" He asked Mr. Noah.
I could feel Mr. Noah tense up a little,
"Mrs. Roberts, he is my childhood friend, Jason. We both studied in the same school." Mr. Noah told me.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jason," I extended my hand for him to shake, but he held my hand and surprisingly kissed the back of my hand.
Mr. Noah was now fully tensed. I don't know why is he reacting this way.
"Please come with me, you Angel," Jason said, pulling me with me.
I looked back and saw Mr. Noah tightening his fist.
Jason took me to the dance floor and started dancing with me.
"You, pretty girl, why did you marry so early and that too with a jerkhead?" Jason told me, and then laughed loudly, "Just kidding. You know Noah has never been with a single girl for more than one week. See now he is marrying you and want to spend his entire life with you, there must be something special with you, pretty lady. He doesn't know how to express his feeling but I am sure he loves you a lot," Jason told me and I just nodded my head.
What should I tell him that his friend Mr. Noah blackmailed me to marry him. He doesn't love me. He has some different purpose behind this marriage, which is yet to be discovered.
"You want to see a demo," Jason said and pulled me closer to him. I could feel his breath on the crook of my neck.
"Just follow me and do as I say," Jason instructed me and I quietly did as he said.
We were dancing and Jason was moving his hand on my back, when suddenly someone pulled me with a jerk and made my head fall in their chest. I mean a hard muscular chest. I looked up to see Mr. Noah standing there. He slowly moved my hair off my face and tucked them behind my ears.
"I guess you might have enjoyed a lot dancing together guys. But Jason, your time's up. Now may I have the pleasure of dancing with my beautiful wife?" Mr. Noah told Jason.
"Sure my bro. You are a lucky guy," Jason told Mr. Noah.
"I know," Mr. Noah replied nodding his head in agreement.
When Jason left, Mr. Noah placed both his hands on my waist and started dancing.
"Where would you like to go for our honeymoon, Mrs. Noah?" Mr. Noah asked me in my ears.
I pushed him a little away from me, "Stop pretending like you are a perfect husband in front of me. You may fool everyone, but you and I, both know the truth." I told Mr. Noah.
He stopped for a moment and then started dancing again.
"We are going to Maldives for our honeymoon, Mrs. Noah. I hope you might have packed your luggage as we will stay there for a fortnight." He stated making my eyes widened in shock.
Just now he was asking me about the place we can go and now he is informing me about the plan. What the hell? Do I get to say something in this marriage? Does my opinion even counts?
"Why did you ask me when you already had planned everything, Mr. Noah?" I told Mr. Noah and pushed him away lightly, turned around and walked away from him.
Where is my choice in this marriage? I don't have the right to choose or say anything. This man is trying to crush my opinions. How can he be so mean?
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 41 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Can't you just go and sit somewhere else? There is so much space in this private jet. Why do you want to stick to me like this?" I told Mr. Noah.
Yes, we have left for Maldives, the same night of our reception.
"Oh no Mrs. Noah. I actually have acrophobia. Whenever I go to a high place, my body starts shaking. I become nervous. So I want someone beside me whom I can hold the entire time." Mr. Noah replied and again placed his head on my shoulder.
"Don't lie. I know you travel hundred times in a month for your business purpose and you don't have any phobia. Look now! We are at a height and you are absolutely fine. You can correctly answer all my questions. So stop pretending Mr. Noah," I told him, trying to free my hand from his grasp.
He was holding my hand like a child holds his/her mother's hand for care and support.
"Oh no Mrs. Noah. Don't try. All your efforts will be in vain." Mr. Noah told me and gave me a devilish smirk.
What the hell? This man doesn't leave any chance to irritate me!
I could feel his warm breath touching my skin and producing volts of current in me.
And like that was not enough, he started moving his finger up and down on my arm, which made me shiver under his hold.
"What happened Mrs. Noah? Are you fine? Why are your shivering?" He told me with the devilish smirk on his face.
"I.. I am not shivering," I anyhow managed to tell him as my whole body was in a chaos. I wanted him to continue, but at the same time, wanted him to stop. Volts of current were passing down my spine. I could feel my body shaking under his hold. I could not get what he was saying and barely could manage to reply to him.
"Now you are stuttering too, Mrs. Noah? Why so? Are you fine? Do you need a doctor?" Mr. Noah told me, winking at me. And immediately stopped the movements of his finger and again placed his head on my shoulder and pretended to sleep.
"No I don't need a doctor. You need a psychiatrist." I told him and immediately turned my head towards the window and away from him.
I could feel him laughing silently on my shoulder.
Idiot!
"By the way, why did we have to leave so early for Maldives. We could have waited for a week or so?" I asked him turning my head again towards him.
He didn't get up, and muttered under his breath while sleeping on my shoulder,
"No. I don't like to wait. And also why are you afraid of going there? Are you afraid that you will lose yourself in me?" Mr. Noah told me.
"Oh come on. You and I both know that I can never lose myself to you, Mr. Noah. That will be only in your dreams," I told him.
"Yeah I can see that," He told me, again winking at me.
What is going on in his devil head?
I am able to control myself, right? Or don't I?
No, no, Angela. You are overthinking. You can never lose yourself to a playboy.
*******************************
■ EXTRA :-
NOAH'S POV :-
I don't know why but today I feel satisfied and contented while placing my head on Angela's shoulders. It is a type of feeling I can't explain. Everything just seems to be perfect. I have never felt such before with any other girl. But my princess is special.
I know I lied to her about me having acrophobia, but you can't blame me, because without that excuse she wouldn't have allowed me to even sit close to her. I know she is stubborn, annoying and feisty but at the same time, she is adorably cute, naive and innocent. Oh and her beauty is always a plus point. She is just perfect in her own way. She may be not a super model or actress, but she is my princess. She herself has no idea about how beautiful she is. That is the reason, I get possessive and angry sometimes. I have seen men checking her out wherever we go and that lust in their eyes. But she is mine, only mine. She is mine and I am hers. And that she will realise very soon. I will make her realise that.
I know many of you might have been that why don't I just express my feelings to her and make this game over. But if I do that now, she will never trust me. She will think that I am doing all this drama so that I can sleep with her. But thats not true. I love her from the bottom of my heart. I want her to feel my love, to believe that I can never cheat her and to trust that I will be there for her whole my life, no matter what the circumstances are, I will always be on her side.
And after the stunt Stephanie did, I don't think she will realise this soon and so easily. She thinks I am a manwhore, okay maybe I was in the past, but after meeting her, I am only hers. She is my princess. I want her to realise and feel my love for her and build a trust between her that no other person or thing can break, because trust is the pillar of every successful relationship.
And even if I tell her that I love her and maybe, I know its impossible, but maybe she believes it, wouldn't that be a simple love story? What would I tell my children that I have a simple love story. There must be something interesting in it like full on action, drama, suspense and of course lots of romance in it so that my children may get interested to listen it and enjoy my love story.
Well, just joking. I am just waiting for the perfect time to arrive to tell her that I truly love her, even more than my life. She has become my everything. And I will do everything possible to make her fall in love with me.
*************************************
■ CHAPTER 42 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"What do you think you are doing?" Mr. Noah's demanding voice boomed in the entire room.
We are staying in his villa in Maldives. Yes, he owns a villa there too.
But what does this man think of himself? He is always being demanding and authoritative! Doesn't he get tired?
"I asked you something Angela! Don't test my patience!" He growled at me.
Keep shouting Mr. Noah, but it will be of no use. Do you really think that I will sleep on the same bed with you? Never! Never ever in life.
I didn't reply and started placing my pillow and blanket on the couch. I told him to give me another room. But no, why will The Great Noah listen to me. Ha! No problem Mr. I will sleep on the couch, but I will never share a bed with you, you jerk head!
I was about to settle on the couch, when suddenly Noah gripped my arm tightly and turned me around. My whole body was pressed against his. And to add to my trouble, he was naked. I mean his upper body was naked. He was only wearing his pyjamas.
I felt like my entire body has been set on fire. I felt like my knees are turning into jelly. I felt like I will fall on the ground any moment. But thanks to Mr. Jerk head, he was holding me tightly against his body! I could feel his hard chest and perfect six packs pressing against my breasts and stomach. What the hell is wrong with me? Why my body behaves so weirdly, whenever this Jerk head is around me?
"You are not sleeping on the couch!" Noah's voice brought me back to reality.
Ha! Like I am going to listen to you!
"I can and I will sleep on the couch!" I replied, looking straight into his eyes.
"On this couch?" He asked, pointing his index finger at the couch.
Of course Mr. Smart head, there is only one couch in this room.
I rolled my eyes at his stupidity.
"Of course!" I replied.
Suddenly he left me, turned around and walked towards the bed. I too turned around, with a huge victory smile on my face. Ha! I won, Mr. Noah!
Suddenly someone knocked the door. I looked at Mr. Noah. He was already walking towards the door. He opened the door and two of his body guards entered the room and started walking towards me.
Yes, his body guards accompanied us even in Maldives. Well lucky them!
But what the hell? Is this man planning to kill me?
But the two men walked towards the couch, easily lifted the couch and started taking it out of the room. I looked at them in disbelief, with my jaw definitely hitting the ground.
When they were finally out of the room, Mr. Noah closed the door and looked at me, with the devilish smirk plastered on his evil face. But he looks hot!
Shut up, Angela! Are you out of your mind? -- My mind retorted back at me.
Mr. Noah walked towards me and possessively carried me up in his arms, in the bridal style and walked towards the bed. He then gently placed me on the bed and whispered in my ear,
"Now, my princess, if you even try to get up from this bed, then I will handcuff you and make you sleep here."
Angela, this man can do anything. Just keep quiet and sleep! I don't want to be handcuffed.
I slightly nodded my head in agreement. He then slid besides me and wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him. I finally sighed in defeat and rested my head on his chest. But honestly, I felt safe and protected in his arms. I think that I have definitely lost my mind!
He then kissed my forehead. I closed my eyes and allowed sleep to finally engulf me!
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 43 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
I felt someone kissing on my forehead. Mom! My mom is the best mother in the world.
I hugged her tightly. But wait, why does my mother feels so tough?
When did she get those extra muscles on her body?
"Why do you feel so tough mom? On some special protein diet, huh?" I asked her, laughing lightly but still sleeping.
"Good morning princess. Its not your mom, its your man darling," A voice said. And I immediately got back to my senses.
That voice is of.... Mr. Noah.
I immediately opened my eyes to see Mr. Noah hovering over me like a lion hovers over its prey.
He was having that devilish smirk on his face.
He immediately gave a light peck on my lips and shocked me still more.
Oh yes I am not at my home. I am on my so called "honeymoon" in Maldives.
And wait, did I hug Mr. Noah?
I immediately pushed him aside from over me and got up.
He slept by my side,
"Oh my princess, be gentle. It hurts," Mr. Noah told me while beating his fist slightly over his heart.
Drama king!
I didn't say anything and moved to get out of bed but Mr. Noah suddenly held my wrist and pulled me strongly. I went and fell on his hard muscular chest. And luckily he was nude. I mean his upper body.
He pulled me more closer to him so that our lip were only a bit afar. I could feel his hot breath touching my face. My heart beats increased. My breathing increased. I could feel butterflies flying hard in my stomach.
He started moving the back of his fingers on my cheeks. My mouth dried. I was like a confused mess. I didn't know what to do. Volts of currents were passing down my spine. Butterflies started flying more harder than before.
"Where are you going?" Mr. Noah told me.
I actually couldn't interpret what he was saying as my mind was out of my control.
"I... I... I," I started to speak but couldn't find any words.
Noah laughed loudly and heartily. And I don't know what made me feel happy, contented and satisfied on listening his laugh?
"You are cute, princess. No actually my princess," He told me.
And placed his hand on my face and started pulling me closer to him trying to kiss me when suddenly someone knocked on the door.
Oh, what the hell was I going to do? Kiss him? Stupid Angela.
I immediately got up from his hard body and went to open the door.
As soon as I opened the door, a smiling lady, maybe in her 50s, greeted me with a huge smile on her face,
"Good morning Angela. You are so beautiful," she told me.
"Umm. Good morning to you too. And thank you for the complement mam," I replied to her.
"Oh no no, my darling. Don't call me mam. I am Martha, the caretaker and cook of this house." She told me.
"Wrong time, Martha," Noah told Martha sounding a bit irritated.
"Oh is it, my son?" She asked Noah and then turned to me,
"So sorry to disturb you in between of your romance darling," she told me and I definitely turned into a red tomato.
"No, no. No problem. You didn't disturb us," I told her softly.
"I just came here to let you both know that the breakfast is ready. So you both get ready and come down for breakfast. Come soon, my children," she told me and immediately left the room.
I closed the door and started walking towards the bathroom to get freshen up and be ready.
"Want a company in bathroom?" Noah asked me and I immediately turned around to look at him.
What did he just ask? Company in bathroom? What the hell!
"Huh," I told him with an irritating expression on my face.
"Well wouldn't it be cool if we get in the bathroom together and get ready? It will also save a lot of our time. We have a lot of things to see and do here." He asked me so coolly like he just stated a fact.
Wow! What a man!
"Just shut up Mr. Noah. We have so many days to visit this place. So don't worry, we won't be in short of time." I told him and immediately went into the bathroom and closed the door behind me, making sure that he doesn't barge in.
This man can do anything!
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 44 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Angel, can you please give me the towel? I forgot it on the bed itself," Mr. Noah shouted from inside the bathroom.
I took the towel from the bed and went to give him the same.
I knocked the door, but there was no response. So I knocked the door again. He opened the door and extended his hand to take the towel. I gave him the towel and was about to turn when he suddenly held my wrist and pulled me inside the bathroom.
What the hell?
After pulling me, he left me so I fell on his hard chest. He encircled his arms around my waist and started looking at me like he has seen some miracle.
"Awww. It hurts," I told him, while rubbing my forehead as it really hit hard on his chest.
"Where does it hurt, princess?" He told me and placed locks of hair behind my ear, which were covering my forehead and my eyes.
"Does it hurt here, princess?" Mr. Noah told me, while rubbing a part of my forehead.
"Or here?" He told me, now rubbing another part of my forehead.
Few drops of water were present on his chest and few were passing down from his chest to his stomach. He looked like some Greek God. Perfect face, with well built chest, six packs on abdomen and hard biceps and triceps.
Wait! He already had a towel tied around his waist.
"You had a towel, then why did you ask me to bring another?" I asked him.
"Well I found it just now. Give me that," he told me and took the other towel from my hand and placed it on the hanger.
He then again wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer.
Then suddenly he shook his head hard and that made the water, which was present in his hair, to fall on my face.
"Awww." I closed my eyes and started wiping off my face when suddenly he pulled me a little more closer to him with his one hand and started making circles on my cheek with his other hand. Butterflies started flying high in my stomach. Volts of electricity started passing down my spine.
My knees started becoming weak. We were so close that the water present on his body made me and my clothes wet.
"You.. you.. made... me wet, Mr. Noah," I somehow managed to tell him. I don't know why but I couldn't find my voice coming out at that moment.
"See, I told you let's bath together. You will have to change again now." He told me and started dancing with me, moving me across the bathroom.
Has he hit his head with something? Why is he dancing in the bathroom?
"You know what," he told me and stopped for a moment.
"What?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes at him.
"Now, that you are going to change again, let's bath again," he said and turned on the shower.
What the hell? So he was dancing so he could take me under the shower. How can I not understand that before?
"What did you do?" I asked him.
"Shhh... Don't speak anything," he told me, while placing his first finger on my lips and making me quite.
I looked up and our eyes met. His eyes were shining like stars. He pulled me closer to him and because of water, our bodies were stuck to each other like someone has placed the glue there.
My breasts, beneath my wet clothes, were pressed against his hard naked chest. I felt something happening in the south of me, I hope you get it what I mean.
He placed his one hand on the side of my head and he suddenly pressed his lips on my lips, pulling my face closer to him. But I didn't open my mouth. I can't become weak in front of him. I can't allow him to use and throw me. But suddenly he bit my lower lip hard and made me open my mouth.
Without taking even a second, his tongue met mine.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 45 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Noah turned me around so that my back was towards him. He placed his head in the crook of my neck and started smelling me.
"Just your smell turns me on, my princess," he told me and hugged me from behind.
I tried to free myself from his hold, but he was holding me very tightly.
"Please leave me," I told him, but he being himself didn't do what I said.
"How long will you run away from me, baby? You are mine and I am yours," he told me.
I hit his stomach lightly with my elbow and he immediately left me.
"I will run till my breath lasts. I will never get in your trap like other girls, Mr. Noah" I told him and went towards the bathroom door.
I came out of the bathroom and dried myself with a towel. Is this man crazy?
He made me bath again and made me wet. Now I will have to change my clothes again.
Uhhh. He is so irritating!
"Who is irritating, princess?" His voice boomed in my ears, giving me a shivering feeling as he was standing just behind me and his mouth was just close to my ears.
I could feel his hot breath, making butterflies fly high in my stomach.
"I asked who irritates you darling?" He asked again.
I turned around and took few steps back so that there is some distance between him and me.
And guess what? His upper body was still naked with a towel hung so lowly to his waist. Doesn't this man own some clothes?
"Like what you see, princess? This is all yours," he told me, stretched his arms widely and started coming near me to hug me.
As soon as he wrapped his arms to hug me, I ducked down and escaped from his embrace.
"Don't you dare do that. You know what. You, Mr. Noah, irritate me," I replied, pointing my forefinger at him.
"Oh my princess, do I really irritate you? Am I so bad? Am I not a good human being? I am really sorry Angela for all the things I have done with you. Please forgive me," he told me with his face looking down towards the floor.
Oh, did I say something more? Did I really hurt him? Why is he so sad? I am stupid! I hurt him. Yes, Angela you are an i***t and you hurt him.
My heart felt down. I don't know why, but it did.
I took a step forwards and placed my hand on his shoulder and was about to apologize, when suddenly he hugged me,
"If that is what you think I am going to tell you, then you are wrong darling. Irritating you is my and only my personal right and duty. Get that sweetheart," he said striking his finger on my nose.
What the hell? Here I was finding myself guilty to hurt him and he, he says that irritating me is his personal right and duty? I am a double stupid now to think that this man can even apologize.
Suddenly he left me and started rubbing his hair with his hand to remove drops of water in his head.
I just kept looking at him with my mouth definitely getting opened and hitting the ground.
"Close that or else fly will have a tour in your mouth," he said and closed my mouth with his hand,
"And yes I know, I am drop dead sexy, and you can't takes your eyes off me. But get ready fast. I have planned something very interesting and adventurous for you," he told me with that devilish smirk on his face.

ANGELA'S POV :-
"Good morning sir! I am Rock, your guide for the day." Rock, our guide, as usual appointed by Mr. Noah without my opinion, told us and shook his hand with Mr. Noah.
He then turned towards me,
"Good morning mam! Nice to meet you," Rock extended his hand for me to shake and so I did the same,
"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Rock." I told replied back.
But suddenly he did something unexpected. He kissed the back of my hand,
"You are really very beautiful mam!" He told me.
Mr. Noah twisted his fingers into a fist and his whole body tightened up. He immediately held my hand and separated it from Rock's hand. He then entangled his finger with mine, holding them tightly,
"If your talks are over, shall we go, Mr. Rock?" Mr. Noah told Rock, narrowing his eyes at him.
Rock just nodded his head and started walking. I and Mr. Noah quietly followed him.
Mr. Noah is strange! No one can tell when and why his mood will change! Now what was the reason of getting angry on Rock? He is such a sweet and happy man.
I tried to freed my hand from Mr. Noah's hold but he had held it too tightly for my liking.
Well in all this mess, I didn't see a shining black lamborghini, which was waiting for us on the front gate.
When we reached there, Rock turned around and was about to open the door for me, when suddenly Mr. Noah pushed his hand away and himself opened the door for me.
I and Rock stared at him for a few seconds,
"What? Get in the car, princess," Mr. Noah told me.
I shook my head and tried to sit inside the car but then remembered that my hand was entangled with Mr. Noah's hand.
I looked at him, hoping he will leave it, but he didn't get the hint,
"What are you waiting for princess?" Mr. Noah asked me.
"Well, I can't sit inside the car until you leave my hand Mr. Noah," I told him, showing him our entangled hands.
He immediately left my hand, straightened his body, and cleared his throat,
"No problem. Sit now," he told me and I immediately sat inside the car, with a smile on my face.
Mr. Noah and Rock also did the same.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
"No, don't you even think about it," I told Mr. Noah, but he had a devilish smirk on his face.
I started running across the cruise.
Yes cruise! We were on a cruise, well a huge cruise and Mr. Noah was chasing me as I had denied to jump inside the water with him.
Yes, he wanted me to jump in the water with him. Well I know how to swim, but jumping inside the water of an unknown place is quite difficult.
And that too jumping from a cruise.
Well that was not my thing. But this man is too stubborn for my liking. He can do anything, can't he?
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 47 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Please leave me Mr. Noah," I started begging, with my both hands holding the cruise tightly.
"Princess, its not so deep. Come on! You can do it! You are a brave girl!" Mr. Noah told me.
"Yeah, I now know that I am a brave girl after marrying you," I muttered under my breath. Hope he didn't understand.
"What? Did you say something, my princess?" Noah asked me.
Thank you God that he didn't understand what I said!
"No. Nothing," I told him, "But are you out of your mind? You bring me in the middle of the sea and then you tell me that it is not so deep? Are you crazy? You need a psychiatrist, Mr. Noah!" I told him, this time being a bit loud to make him understand that I really am afraid of jumping in the unknown sea and that too at a distance where I bet water is too deep.
"Are you jumping by yourself or should I carry you and then jump in the water with you? You have two options. Choice is yours." He told me.
What? There is no choice! I am not going down there.
"Neither am I jumping by myself nor are you carrying me and jumping down," I told him, being a bit more strict this time.
"Okay then. I won't force you," Mr. Noah told and turned around to leave.
Thank God! He finally agreed!
I got relaxed and finally left the cruise, taking a breath of relaxation now.
But suddenly my feet lost the contact with the ground and before I could understand even a damn thing, I was in water!
What the hell?
I immediately started moving my hands and legs and tried to come up on the surface of the water. But someone held me tightly by my waist and pulled me up so that my face was out of water.
I took deep breaths as I was out of breath for a moment.
"Are you crazy? You really jumped in the water, and that too carrying me? What if I had lost control and would have drown in the sea? You know I would have died. You don't...." I was telling Noah when suddenly he kissed me. It was short but sweet.
What is happening Angela? Really? You found the kiss sweet?
"Never ever say that again. Nothing will happen to you. I am always there to protect you. You are my wife and your protection is my duty. I promised your father that I will always protect you, even if it means to give my life for you." He told me.
For a moment, I was blank. Really? Does he really care for me so much? Or is this just another act of seducing me?
But I don't feel that he is acting. I can see the shine of truth in his eyes. My heart says that he is true and real this time. But my mind goes against my heart. I don't know whether to believe and trust him or not? But I can see that truth in his eyes. Are my eyes just imagining things or is this truth really shining in his eyes.
Before I could get to any conclusion, Noah held me tightly by my waist and brought me more closer to him. Our faces were so close that I could feel his hot breath touching my wet cheeks, sending down volts of electricity passing down my spine.
He kept his one hand on my cheek and started making circles on my cheek with his thumb. My knees started getting weak. God! He affects me so much!
I closed my eyes as I couldn't held the things that were happening to me at that moment.
I felt his cold lips slowly touching mine. As I was clueless, I stood there like a statue. He bit my lower lip and made me to open my mouth.
This man knows how to get what he wants!
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 48 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
We broke the kiss after few minutes, but it felt like forever. I looked into Mr. Noah's eyes and it was like a deep sea. Maybe more deeper than the one we are already in. He is so confusing, yet so charming. His eyes were shining like a diamond.
I could see a wicked smile making a way on his face,
"Like what you see, princess," he told me.
I immediately looked away from him. Can't he just keep his egoistic self aside for a few minutes? His words sometimes makes me want to believe him, trust him, adore him, and yes love him too. But then he again brings his egoistic self in front of me and I get nore irritated.
"Oh, I have seen better," I told Mr. Noah.
"Say again and I will punish you in my way," he told me, winking at me.
He told 'in my own way' in a different sense and I could understand what he meant to say. It was better to change the topic at that moment.
"Ah. I... I am feeling cold," I told Mr. Noah.
I could come up with only this idea at that moment.
"Rock," he immediately called Rock and he appeared in no time.
"Pull her," Mr. Noah told Rock and lifted me by my waist.
I offered Rock my hand and he gently pulled me up.
I was safely placed again on the cruise. Mr. Noah too did the same.
I was rubbing my arms as I was feeling damn cold and shaking as the wind touched my wet body. Suddenly a towel was wrapped around me from backside.
I looked behind to find Mr. Noah placing the towel around me. He guided me to a seat where we both sat and I could see the amazing view of the sea and surrounding from that site.
He suddenly went inside the cruise. Where did he go?
I was enjoying the view when Mr. Noah appeared again. He was having two mugs in his hands.
He approached me and offered me a mug, which I silently took and found hot coffee in it.
Mr. Noah then sat besides me and started quietly sipping through his mug.
The silence felt really awkward and I could bear it more. So I randomly started the conversation,
"Watched some romantic movie last night?" I asked him.
Yes sorry. But it was the only thing I could come up with at that moment.
"Huh," Mr. Noah replied, narrowing his eyes at me.
"Never seen you being so caring before. So thought....," I told him, but couldn't come up with more words.
His expressions changed, but I exactly couldn't get what was going on in his mind.
"So you like the caring Noah," he asked me.
"Well... I... I meant... umm..," I started speaking but come up with no words.
What should I tell him that yes I like a caring and loving Noah? Wouldn't it boost his ego more?
"Well I got what you meant to say," he told me, winking at me.
"And yes I watched fifty shades of grey last night. So I have learned many things from it. And I am looking forward to practically do all the things I have learned from it. Are you interested to practice it with me," Mr. Noah told me, with a devilish smirk appearing on his face.
What the hell? First of all he was with me last night, so I know he didn't watch any movie. I asked as I could come up with no other thing than this.
Secondly, I could get what he meant by 'practically do things he have learnt'.
Well I am not interested in practicing what he might have learned.
"Thanks for your offer, but sorry I am not interested," I told him and immediately looked away from him, but I could feel myself blushing.
"Why are your cheeks getting so much red, princess?" he told me in a teasing tone.
God! His arrogant self was more better than his little teenager self.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 49 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Achoo," I sneezed again.
"May God bless you my child," Charlotte told me.
Sorry forgot to introduce you to Charlotte. She is the caretaker of the villa Mr. Noah owns in Maldives.
She is such a sweet and lovely lady, maybe in her late 50s.
"Charlotte, tell the doctor to come fast. I can't wait more. You can see how much she is sneezing," Noah told Charlotte, while placing strips of cloth, soaked in cold water, on my forehead.
He had been doing that for more than half hours and we were waiting for doctor to arrive.
He had not left me alone even for a second. I had told him many times now that its just a simple cold that I have caught. But he is behaving like something big and serious has happened to me.
"Mr. Noah, please stop worrying. Its just a simple cold that I have caught, so please relax," I told him again.
"Just shut up princess. Your head is burning with fever. You are sneezing continuously and you are telling me that its just simple cold. I can't see you like this," he told me.
Well really? Does he really care for me so much? My mind warns me to not trust him. But my heart says that he cannot be fake this time. I can see truth shining bright in his eyes.
The door bell rang and Charlotte ran to open the door. After a minute she arrived again in the bedroom with doctor standing by her side.
"Hello Doctor. She has been sneezing since more than one hour now and her temperature is rising and her forehead is burning like a fire. Please see her," Mr. Noah told the doctor and doctor nodded his head in agreement.
The doctor sat besides me and started doing his examinations. He checked my pulse, temperature, and all other examinations he found useful.
"Mr. Noah there is nothing to worry. She has just caught a simple cold and fever. Please give her the medicines, I have written in this prescription on time. And keep placing strips of cloth dipped in cold water on her forehead. And she will be completely fine." Doctor said while writing medications in his prescription. He handed the paper to Mr. Noah and Mr. Noah immediately ordered Charlotte to purchase the medicines and come back as fast as she can.
Doctor too left leaving me and Mr. Noah alone in the room.
"See I told you.... Achoo...its nothing but just a simple cold and fever," I told Noah.
"Till Charlotte brings the medicine, I will make a cup of coffee for you." Mr. Noah told me and immediately left the room.
After a few minutes he arrived back with a mug in his hand. He helped me to get up, to which I denied a lot but he being he, helped me. He handed me the mug and quietly sat besides me. I started sipping the hot coffee and he was quietly looking at me without even blinking his eyes. I turned my eyes away from him as it was getting really awkward. Suddenly Mr. Noah placed his one hand on my cheek and turned my face towards him. He pulled my head closer to him and placed his forehead over mine, our noses touching each other.
I could feel his hot breath fanning over my lips and his lips only a few inches away from mine.
He gave a peck on my lips and started making circles on my cheek with his hand. Volts of current started running down my spine. Butterflies started flying hard in my stomach. I closed my eyes and could feel him pulling me closer to him. My hand started losing their grip and the mug was about to fall, when suddenly he took the mug from me and placed it aside. He pulled my head closer to him and started fiercely kissing me. He bit my lower lip making me open my mouth. His tongue immediately entered my mouth and started dancing with my tongue in rhythm. He pulled me by my waist making me sit on his lap. I don't know why but I followed him without thinking even once. He started placing small kisses over my face, starting from my lips to my ear. I turned my face aside to provide him more exposure. His one hand squeezed my one breast making me moan loudly.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 50 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Someone started coughing and I turned around to see Charlotte standing on the door,
"I think, I disturbed you both! I should come later." Charlotte told us.
I immediately pulled myself away from Mr. Noah and got down from his lap and sat on the bed, taking support of the pillow.
"No Charlotte, you didn't disturb us. We were... umm.. we were just... Forget it! Where are the medicines?" Mr. Noah told Charlotte, extending his hand towards her.
She immediately placed the medicines in his hand and Mr. Noah immediately gave the medicines to me. Charlotte handed me a glass of water and I, without any question, swallowed the medicines and returned the glass to Charlotte.
Charlotte placed it on the bedside table and turned around to leave the room,
"You can now continue what you were doing, my children. I will make sure no one enters the room till you have finished the complete task." Charlotte told us and left the room after closing the door behind her and giggling all the way like a teenager.
I could feel my cheeks turn red, okay maybe more red than a tomato.
"I am craving for a tomato right now. Do you have one?" Mr. Noah told me. It took me a second to catch what actually he meant. And when I caught, I looked up to see him giving me a devilish smirk while winking at me.
This made me turn even more red. I could feel his stare drilling holes in my body. So I picked up a pillow and placed it over my face, pretending to sleep. But soon, I was really fast asleep.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
I opened my eyes slowly, taking in the light coming on my face. I stretched my arms and sat on my place slowly taking in my surroundings.
Oh yes! I was pretending to sleep, wasn't I? But I guess I really fell asleep.
I looked around the room to see Mr. Noah sleeping on a chair besides me. Why is he sleeping this way? Didn't doctor tell him that it was just a simple cold.
Suddenly someone slowly opened the door and caught my attention. I looked around to see Charlotte peeking through a narrow space after slightly opening the door. As she saw me woke up, she opened the door fully and stepped inside the room.
"How are you now, my child? Feeling good now?" She came and whispered to me.
I just nodded my head in agreement. Suddenly she left the room and reappeared after a few minutes with a tray in her hand. A bowl was placed on the tray.
She carefully placed the tray on the bed and handed me the bowl. I looked inside the bowl to find soup placed in it.
"No, Charlotte. I don't want to drink this now." I told her, placing the bowl back on the tray.
"No, my child. You have to drink this now only. It is Noah's order to make you drink this as soon as you wake up. I can't afford to make him angry, my child! So please drink as fast as you can." Charlotte told me and again handed me the bowl.
I know what happens when the lion gets angry. He will shake the whole jungle. No one can risk to go against his will.
Well, except me. I can go against his will as I am not afraid from him. But I can't see him getting angry on Charlotte. So I happily took the bowl and started sipping through my soup.
Charlotte sat on the bed besides me,
"He loves you a lot, my child. He has not left the room even for a second. He was even not ready to take a nap. It was me who forced and convinced him to sleep for a while. I have never seen Noah getting so worried for anyone else since I have started working for him and his family. He cares for you just like your father might be caring for you. What else a girl wants? Every girl wishes to see her father qualities in her husband. Every girl wishes that her husband cares for her in the same way like her father does. You are a lucky girl my child. Not that he is less lucky though. You both look perfect together. Please never leave him, my child, as I have never seen him caring or loving someone so intensely. His love is pure, pure like a gold." Charlotte told me.
Really? Does she really feel that Mr. Noah truly loves me?
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 51 :-
NOAH' POV :-
"Ready princess?" I told while knocking the door.
"No. Umm. Can you please call Charlotte?" My princess replied.
"Why? Any problem? Are you alright?" I asked her but couldn't wait, so opened the door and barged inside.
Angela was trying to zip the chain on the back of her dress. But was not able to do it.
As soon as she saw me in the mirror, she turned around to hide her back from me. But forgot that the mirror behind her gave me a better view.
"Why did you come inside? I told you to call Charlotte, didn't I?" She told me trying to sound a bit irritated, but I in fact found her more cute then.
I started walking towards her. And she started moving backwards, so as to maintain a distance between us. She took one step back as I took one step forward towards her. I took one more step towards her and she took one step back, but hit the dressing table behind her and was about to fall.
I immediately ran towards her and held her tightly, preventing her from falling. She held me, trying to stabilize herself. While attempting this, all her hair were spread out on her face, preventing me to look at the beautiful face in front of me. I held her waist tightly with one hand and started placing her hair behind her ear with the other hand. She is just like a doll. Sometimes when I touch her, I fear that I might hurt her.
She looked up and our eyes met. It were so deep that I could fall in them. She unknowingly started biting her lower lip. This made her look even more sexy. I couldn't resist myself and give her a peck on her lips. She immediately left her lower lip and touched her lips with her hand, making her look even more sexy. I placed my other hand behind her back and immediately she flinched as my cold hand touched her bare back. Oh yes, I forgot. She was trying to zip her chain.
I moved my hand down her back, reaching the chain. She closed her eyes and I could feel her breasts moving forward touching my chest. I slowly zipped her chain, purposely making sure that my hand touched her back. Her grip on me tightened as I could feel her knees getting weak. She held me tightly, trying to prevent her from falling. Her eyes were still closed.
I placed my head on her shoulder, giving me a good view of what I was doing. I could feel her heart beat getting fast. She started breathing deeply. Her hot breath was touching my neck, making me go wild. My thoughts started becoming even more wild. If I didn't stop then, I would have definitely took her on the same dressing table. But I had to stop myself as I had planned a surprise for her.
I finally zipped her chain and hugged her tightly, not satisfying my senses though. I could never get enough of this beautiful lady standing in front of me, even if I become 100 years old.
I finally left her, placed a lock of hair behind her ear and lightly kissed her on her lips. I turned around, stopping myself from going further. I immediately left the room as I knew if I had stayed there even a minute longer, I would have lost control on myself.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
ANGELA'S POV :-
Mr. Noah stepped out from the car, closing the door behind him. He immediately walked towards my side of the door, opened the door and extended his hand for me to take. I quietly took it and stepped out from the car.
Mr. Noah closed the door behind me, entangled his fingers with mine and started walking. I quietly followed him, trying to freed my hand from his in the beginning, but finding my all attempts getting failed, I sighed and stop resisting him from entangling our fingers.
We reached a place, which I couldn't identify as I have never visited this place before. I looked around to find a boat waiting for us. A man was waiting for us. He offered me his hand and holding his hand, I stepped inside the boat. Mr. Noah was standing behind me, helping me to step in the boat. He has become just like my shadow. He is always there for me, anytime, anywhere. He has invaded my personal space. I don't know why but I like him being always there for me. His presence intimates me, but I still like him being around me.
After me, Mr. Noah too stepped inside the boat. The boatman started the boat and started going somewhere I had no idea about.
"Where are we going?" I asked Mr. Noah.
"It's for me to know and for you to find out, my darling princess. It's a surprise for you." Mr. Noah replied.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 52 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Finally the boat stopped and we stepped out from it onto a place, which looked like a resort. There was a big hoarding outside the place, mentioning its name 'CINNAMON DHONVELI'.
There was a small passage, which had to be crossed, before entering the resort. The passage was fully covered with red roses' petals and there were candles burning across both the sides of the passage. Mr. Noah asked me to go first and he again followed me like my own shadow. The petals smelled so good that I wanted to stop there and smell them the entire night. But as Mr. Noah was behind me, I couldn't. I continued walking till we reached a door.
The door was closed. I looked behind towards Mr. Noah and he told me to open the door. And I did the the same.
As soon as I opened the door, I was showered with the petals of the roses again. And the sight which met my eyes was so wonderful that the words cannot describe it. It was a huge room and red heart shaped balloons were spread all over it. There was no light in the room. Almost thousands of candles were burning there giving more light than even the light.
Suddenly a group of children came from somewhere, each having a rose in their hand. A little boy approached me and offered me the rose. I bent down to take it from his little hand and he kissed me on my cheek and whispered, "You are beautiful." And after saying that, he immediately ran away, leaving a big smile on my face.
Then a little girl approached me, offering the rose in the same way. I picked it from her hand and gave her a quick peck on her damn soft cheeks. She too whispered in my ears,"You are a princess," she said, kissed me on my cheek and ran away.
There were four more kids, who approached me in the same way, kissed me on my cheek, whispered things in my ear and ran away.
I was still thinking about them, when suddenly they reappeared again and gathered around me. Two little girls, each holding my one hand, guided me through the room filled with balloons. They took me to another door in the room and asked me to open it. Again as soon as I opened it, I was showered with petals of roses.
It was a huge garden. They guided me through the garden and brought me to a place. I was so busy looking around the garden that I didn't notice where they had brought me. A little girl pulled my dress, to which I looked down and saw that there was a huge heart drawn on the ground with thousands of petals of roses again. And in the centre of the heart, candles were placed making my name 'ANGELA'. Suddenly all the kids whispered something and ran away.
I looked towards the direction they were running, when suddenly someone held my hand from the other direction and pulled me towards themselves. I hit a hard chest and looked up to see Mr. Noah looking down at me.
Suddenly a group of musicians surrounded us, each having one musical instrument in their hand. They started playing the music and Noah started dancing holding me in his arms.
"You look damn beautiful today, princess." Noah said, while touching my cheek with the back of his hand and giving me chills in my body.
"Mr. Noah," I started to speak, but was cut off as Mr. Noah kissed me on my lips. It was a soft and gentle kiss.
"My name is Noah and just Noah for you. Call me Mr. Noah again and I will punish you in the same way but with more intensity this time. And even then if you continue calling me Mr. Noah, mode of punishment will change, but it would be more intense than this." He said, winking at me.
I could clearly understand what he meant by mode of punishment.
"Do you get what I said?" He asked me again and I just nodded my head in response.
He turned me around and pulled me towards himself, making my back touch his chest. He placed his head in the crook of my neck and started giving small pecks there. Volts of electricity passed down my spine. He passed his hands down my both arms and finally held my hands and folded them with his, taking me more closer to him.
He danced with me, while his head was still placed in the crook of my neck. His hot breath touching my neck was making butterflies fly hard in my stomach. My knees were going weak, but Noah's strong hold made me stand upright.
He started making circles on my one hand with his thumb and in one swift move, he again turned me towards himself. He pulled me closer towards him and placed his forehead over mine, with our noses touching each other.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 53 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Are you sure, we can do this? I mean, obviously you can do it, but I am not sure about me?" I told Noah.
Yes, Noah. He gave me a warning last night not to call him Mr. Noah. Not that I am afraid of him. But I definitely don't want the punishment he wants to give me. I guess you understood what he meant when he said he would punish me.
But seriously last night was amazing. No, no, no. Nothing happened between us. I meant after dancing, we had a lovely candle light dinner.
*FLASHBACK*
"It's too cold here," I said while rubbing my both arms with my hands.
Noah suddenly got up from his chair and headed towards me.
What now? As the place is open, I am feeling cold. What wrong did I say that made him to approach me, and that too in so serious way.
Suddenly he went behind my chair and started removing his coat.
What? Is he crazy? Why is he removing his clothes now?
Wait, wait, wait. It is known that when two naked bodies touch each other, more heat is produced. So... Is he...?
No I can't let this happen. Is he out of his mind or what?
I suddenly stood up from my chair, making him raise his eyebrows at me,
"Look. Stop doing this. I am not feeling so much cold. I can manage. I would neither remove my clothes nor allow you to remove yours." I told him.
For a moment, he thought of something and then a big devilish smirk came on his face.
What now? What is going on in his devil head?
He started walking towards me. Can't he hear what I just said?
As he took one step towards me, I took one step backwards,
"Stop where you are or I will..." I said and started looking around to find something I can use to protect me. And I got it. I took the flower vase in my hands.
"Or you will?" Noah asked me, with the same smirk on his face.
"I will hit you with this and you will seriously get hurt." I told him, showing him the flower vase in my hand.
But he still didn't stop. He kept walking towards me.
"Then hit me." Noah told me.
What? Is this man out of his mind? As I was looking towards him and taking steps backwards, I didn't notice the table behind me and hit it. It made me stop there only and Noah was then just few centimetres away from me.
I raised my hand to hit him, but I couldn't. So I took my hand back again.
What is wrong with me? Why didn't I hit him?
He smirked again and took the flower vase from my hands and kept it on the table again.
He removed his coat. Can't this man understand what I said?
"Look.." I started but was cut off when he placed the coat on my back and covered me with it.
It really felt warm then. Oh, so he was just trying to cover me with his coat. And what I stupid thought?
Oh God, this is so embarrassing. I looked at him and he was smirking at me. I too faked a false smile. I am sure my cheeks were red like a tomato then.
"You are too wild, princess. I didn't know you were thinking of touching me naked or else I would have done it a long time ago." Noah said and winked at me.
"No. I.. umm.. just misunderstanding.. umm. I mean," I started but coulrn't find words to complete my sentence.
Noah slightly leaned forward towards me and slowly and lightly kissed me on my lips. He shook his head in astonishment and still smirking sat back on his chair again.
Oh God! How am I going to face him now?
* FLASHBACK OVER *
So this is how I made myself sound like a stupid last night. But still last night was amazing. His surprise was beautiful actually.
"Don't worry princess. I know you can do it." Noah said, bringing me back to the present and placed the diving mask in my hand.
Yes! We are going to dive in the sea.
Do you think I can do it? Because I don't trust myself.
But one thing. I am not feeling that afraid as I know Noah is with me. And even if I don't trust myself, I trust him somewhat. Okay, I mean I trust him more.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 54 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Noah held my hand and pressed it tightly, giving me assurance that I can do it.
We both finally jumped into the water.
The water was not so much cold. It was a bit warm and inviting. We started swimming together. Suddenly a small fish came in front of me. I got a bit afraid and so I immediately hugged Noah.
And that man. He took the advantage of this and hugged me back tightly. I tried moving away from him, but he would not leave me. I hit him lightly on his chest. And he laughed teasingly, but I could hear his laughter through his chest and I don't know why but I felt that sound to be the best sound in this world and I could hear him laugh my entire life, without even getting bored.
I too chuckled seeing him laughing, but hit him again on his chest and he finally left me. He took my hand and was extending it. I didn't know what he was trying to do. My eyes were stuck at his perfect built face. But suddenly I felt something touched my fingers. I turned around to see that I was touching a small fish or rather say that Noah was making me touch a fish.
The creature felt really soft and fleshy to my fingers. But as the creature felt me touching it, it immediately swam away from us.
Noah held my hand, entangled our fingers with each other and took me a little more far.
We saw a candy-hued coral swayed underneath like a colourful Monet. We stood there for a few minutes watching it minutely. Then we swam further.
We saw crabs were crawling across the sea floor, and the colourful parrotfishes appeared, out of sudden, eating algae off of coral reefs.
Noah pointed to the crab and I knew what he was trying to say. He was asking me to touch it. I pushed him lightly, and he started laughing loudly again.
We swam even more further.
The crystal clear blue water of Maldives offered incredible visibility.
As we moved further, with our hands held tightly and our fingers entangled, we saw uncountable fishes dancing in their ever impressive formation. There were many fishes – both tiny and moderate in size – zigzagging their way around us. It all felt just magical.
Noah started chasing them, but as soon as he approached them, they swam away from him, making me laugh loudly. When I stopped laughing, I looked towards him and he was watching me without even blinking his eyes. These gave me goosebumps and butterflies started flying hard in my stomach.
This time I took him and we swam further.
We saw pristine reefs teeming with vibrant corals, brightly colored fish, and a myriad of other marine life on our way.
Apart from these, we saw many creatures moving around us and it was magical. I never knew life under water would be so amazing. I would have never done this in my entire life if I had not been with Noah.
We followed our instructor and started swimming towards the surface. Soon we were on the surface and dive boat picked us up.
Noah helped me in removing the necessary things we had worn for scuba diving. He then handed me a towel and I started drying myself. Suddenly I felt someone drying my hair. I immediately turned around to see Noah drying my hair with another towel.
"What are you doing?" I asked Noah.
"Just drying your hair princess," he replied casually.
"But why? I can do that myself." I told him.
"I know but this time I don't want you to catch cold because of me. I can't see you ill. And apart from that, I have promised your father that I will take good care of you." He replied and continued rubbing my hair with the towel.
He turned me around so he can do it without any difficulty.
A tear built up in my eyes. Only my father cared for me in this way. And he is just copying my father. I mean he is taking care of me just like my father does. He is really a very good human being. A good soul with a pure heart.
I don't know whether he loves me or not, but after this I have definitely started falling for him.
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 55 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Finally for the last time, which was actually a hundredth time, I looked into the mirror, still unsure about how I looked in this clothing Noah had gifted me this morning.
My mind still reverted me to change the clothing before I make fun of myself in front of him. He is a billionaire and that too a handsome billionaire. Thousands of beautiful girls bend down on their knees to be with him. He will find me stupid, looking like this.
I deeply breathed last time, getting in the courage to go in front of him. I finally opened the door and stepped out to find him. I saw him peacefully sipping through his coffee. I guess he heard me coming as he immediately turned around and as soon as he saw me, he started coughing his coffee out.
I knew it! He won't like me. Am I looking that bad in this clothing that he had to cough out his coffee?
I immediately rushed towards him and started patting his back. But he immediately moved away from me.
What? Why? I mean why did he do that? Am I looking that bad? It hurts me, seeing him moving away from me. I now feel like I would dig myself in the ground and never come in front of him again.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
NOAH'S POV :-
I heard the sound of the door slowly opening as I sipped through my coffee on the dining table. So my princess is ready. I want to see her in the clothing I have gifted her today. She looks beautiful in whatever she wears, and I am sure she will look beautiful in this too.
I turned around taking the last sip of my coffee and as soon as I turned around, I started coughing the coffee out. It got stuck in my neck, seeing the person standing in front of me.
She was looking beautiful, no I mean hot, no I mean damn hot, okay damn sexy though. Maybe the sexiest woman I have ever seen in my life.
She was wearing the two piece black bikini I had gifted her today morning. Her figure made her look so hot, that the temperature in the room suddenly increased. Something started getting hard in me. I wanted to take her then and there on the dining table. But I somehow controlled my this urge.
"Are you alright?" She asked me, came forward and started patting my back.
What? Tell her to stay away from me, at least a few metres away from me. I anyhow have controlled my urge, but seeing her so close, will make me lose everything.
I immediately moved away from her as I didn't want to fear her, taking her this way for the first time,
"No, I am fine. I am fine." I replied to her.
"Are you sure?" She asked me again.
"Yes, I am fine. Let's go. The white sand is waiting for us," I replied to her, winking at her, but still maintained the distance between us.
We made our way out to the car and I opened the back door for her. She sat in and then I rushed to sit besides the driver. I can't risk her to sit with me alone in the back seat. I only know what I am feeling right now, and how I am able to control myself.
Even only the thought of her beneath me, is driving me crazy. If I sit alone with her in the back seat, I will definitely lose myself in seconds and take her then and there on the car seat.
Oh God! Please help me in keeping my hormones under my control.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
ANGELA'S POV :-
Am I seriously looking that bad that Noah doesn't even want to sit with me. He has never been like that before. So why now?
Is it me looking bad? Or.... or he has found someone else in Maldives, who is making him stay away from me.
Even the thought of him being with someone else is making me angry. If he has found someone else, he better keep her away from me, or else I will kill that girl.
The car finally stopped, bringing me back to reality from my ugly thoughts.
Noah rushed to open my door. He opened the door and stood aside giving me a way to come out.
He didn't offer me his hand? Why? He always offers me his hand to hold and helps me to get out of the car. Why not this time? What is wrong with him? Why is he behaving so strange?
Am I looking that ugly? Or he really has found someone else, damn beautiful, in Maldives?
A tear started forming in my eye, seeing him behaving so strange with me. But I somehow controlled myself and didn't cry.
****************************
■ CHAPTER 56 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
I sat on one of the two folding beach chairs, which were arranged there for us. I don't know how Noah can be so perfect. He has everything already arranged wherever we go. Maybe these are the perks of being a billionaire. Or maybe his perfection is the reason he is a billionaire.
"Hey hi hot bun," A girl's voice brought me back to reality.
I looked around to see three girls standing with Noah. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't notice that Noah had already taken his T-shirt off. He was seriously looking handsome in the T-shirt he was wearing with his shorts. It gave him a funky look.
But trust me, he was looking hot having his T-shirt off. His perfectly built muscular body with his six packs made him look like a Greek God. The temperature of the area might have increased by 10 degrees. I didn't realise that I was freely checking him out from top to bottom, until he looked at me and gave me a devilish smirk.
I immediately looked away from him. What the hell is wrong with me? How stupid I might have looked checking my own husband from top to bottom just like that? I never spare a chance to prove myself a stupid in front of him. Ufff, me and my stupidness!
I again looked up at his face and found him still looking at me. The girls were continuously talking to him, but it looked from his face, that he was not at all interested in talking to them.
Lastly a girl was speaking but she stopped in between and looked at me, giving me a sharp look, like I have asked her both kidneys. It felt like if she had the power, she might have burnt alive with her eyes.
After a moment of giving me sharp looks, she turned towards Noah and moved further towards him, decreasing the distance between them. They were both very close now, her breasts only a few centimetres away from Noah's chest.
What the hell is wrong with this girl? How dare she come so close to my husband?
My fingers turned into a fist as I felt like hitting her on her face. But I somehow controlled myself.
Wait! Is she the girl Noah had found in Maldives? Is she the girl because of whom Noah behaved so strangely with me?
No, no, this can't be true! I am just imagining things.
Or can it be true?
If it is true, trust me, I won't hesitate even a bit in giving a punch on her face and breaking her that poking nose.
She moved still closer to him, her body now touching Noah's bare upper part.
She started moving her index finger up and down on Noah's bare chest.
This girl is now getting on my nerves. I feel like pulling all her hair out and making her bald. I feel like breaking her legs and arms. I feel like pulling her eyeballs out and making her blind.
'Control, Angela, control! When did you become so wild?' My inner self reverted me back.
"Hot bun, would you like some relaxing body massage?" She asked Noah, still moving her index finger up and down on his bare chest.
How would she look with her index finger broken into two pieces and that too at right angle?
I immediately stood up and went towards them.
I pushed the girl slightly away from Noah, making some distance between them. I then stood between them, with my back facing Noah, and my face towards that girl,
"No, he does not like body massages. And even if he would want one, he has his 'wife' standing besides him for giving him one." I told the girl, a bit rudely, stressing on the word 'wife' making her realise that he is already married. So she better back off.
She gasped for a second after hearing my words. It felt as if her jaw would hit the ground. It made me smile at her. Angela 1, girl 0.
Angela, when did you become so bad and stone hearted? Since when did you start liking hurting others? Is this what your parents have taught you?
My stupid mind reverted me back, but I rolled my eyes in response. I am not hurting her. I am just telling her the truth. So you better shut up my stupid mind.
She soon returned back to her normal expression,
"I didn't ask you about having a massage. I asked the hot bun standing behind you. So you better move aside, Mrs. wifey." She told me, pushed me away from Noah and again came closer to him.
What the hell? Is she out of her mind? Or did she really not understand what I meant to say? Even after my clear words, she is trying to flirt with a married man. What the hell is wrong with her?
I again pushed her away from Noah and again stood in between both of them,
"Listen Miss whatever you are, your hot bun wants to tell you the same thing which I told you just now. Don't believe me, ask him only," I told her and turned to look at Noah, who was trying his very hard to control his smile, but he failed drastically.
What is so funny in this? Why does he want to smile? Here this stupid girl is getting on my nerves and he wants to smile!
"Honey, don't you want to say something to her?" I asked Noah, tangling my left arm with his right arm, and placing my right hand on his naked chest.
His eyes widened for a second but he immediately returned back to his normal self. He shook his head in disbelief, and his smile widened even more.
"Yes, yes, she is right, lady. If I would want a body massage, I would ask my princess. And I am sure she will love to give me one," Noah told the girl and then turned towards me, "Won't you chocopie?" Noah asked me, freed his right arm from my left arm, wrapped it around my back and pulled me closer to him.
A smile immediately spread wide on my lips. It felt like this was the place where I belonged. This was the place where I want to lie for my entire life, that is wrapped in his arms.
"Yes, why not honey!" I told Noah, stood on my toes, and gave him a little peck on his cheek.
Wait! What did I just do now? I kissed him? I seriously kissed him? Or am I dreaming?
If it is really a dream, please don't wake me up!
******************************
■ CHAPTER 57 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
The girl looked at me with her narrowed eyes. I bet she was thinking of killing me just then, as her dream of seducing my husband was badly broken by me. She finally turned away and left with her friends.
Thank God! I didn't like her even a bit!
But why Angela? Why do you care if she flirts with Noah or even seduces him? You don't love him, right? Or do you?
I was battling with my own thoughts when I felt like someone called my name.
I turned around to look Noah staring at me with eyebrows up,
"What? Did you call me?" I asked him.
"Darling I called you several times, but you were busy day dreaming my princess. Thinking of me, huh?" He asked me giving me a half smirk.
Yes, of course, I was thinking of you. Not only now, but always I think of you only. I don't know why but all my thoughts start and end only with you. It is like you have hypnotized my mind.
My inner self reverted back, but I can't tell him these things, right? He will think that I am a stupid,
"Of course not. Why will I think of you? You are not that important to me that you will capture my mind!" I told him.
"Oh really, then who was being jealous just now?" Noah asked me, again raising his eyebrows at me.
"Jealous? I was not being jealous. I just didn't like that girl," I replied.
"And may I please know the reason why you didn't like that girl?" Noah asked.
"Just like that. And also I thought you also might not be interested in her as she was not of your type." I told Noah.
"And who told you that she was not of my type? I was definitely interested in her," Noah told me, with that devilish smirk present on his face.
What is wrong with him? What is he telling? He was interested in her? Did he forget that he is already married? Oh God, what is wrong with this man!
He seriously said that he was interested in her.
Tears started forming in my eyes but I, anyhow, controlled myself. His words hurt me like someone has hit me with an arrow.
"You are inte..res..ted in her?" I asked, stuttering in between.
He just nodded his head in agreement, still smiling like an i***t.
"Then why don't you just go and catch her. And not only catch her, flirt with her, eat with her, dance with her, and at last also sleep with her. Just go and sleep with her." I told Noah and immediately turned around, walking away from him.
How can he just say that he is interested in her? I am his wife, ain't I?
But Angela you are his wife only for the sake of name. You both have not done anything that a normal couple do. You even have not consummated your marriage, my Angela!
My mind reverted back.
'Shut up you stupid mind. I hate you' I told my mind. And the fact that whatever it said was right made me hate it even more.
I was lost in my thoughts and suddenly hit something hard.
What the hell?
I looked up to see a tall man, maybe 6 feet 3 inches, standing in front of me.
Oh, was I so lost in my thoughts that I didn't see him coming and hit him?
"Oh, I am sorry," I told him, moved aside and started walking again. I only took one feet forward when another tall man, almost his height, came in front of me. He was looking down at me with a very wicked smile. I didn't like the way he looked at me. I bet his intentions were wrong. So I decided to immediately leave from the place.
"I am sorry, please let me go," I told him and again moved aside, but this time he firmly held my wrist and pulled me back again.
"Oh baby, why do you want to run away from us? You have an extremely sexy figure. Let us both enjoy today." He said and winked at me.
Oh no. I knew it that his intentions were wrong. I started sweating even though the atmosphere was not that hot.
"Please, leave me. Please, leave me." I told him, trying to free my wrist from his grip. But he was damn strong for my convenience.
I looked around and found people staring at us. All were standing there, but no one dared to come in front and help me.
I looked around and started finding Noah. But all my attempts were in vain. He was nowhere found.
Did he really go to find and catch that girl? Was she really more important to him than me?
Tears now were not in my control and started dripping from my eyes.
He left me alone for that girl. Woah, he left me alone for that girl!
I knew he was not there, but my blurred eyes were still searching for him and suddenly my wrist was freed from that wicked man's grip.
I looked forward to find that man hitting the ground, and grinding his teeth. Blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.
I looked to my left only to see Noah standing besides me and his fingers were turned in a fist.
He had hit the man hard on his face, making him free my wrist and fall on the ground.
******************************
■ CHAPTER 58 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Who the hell are you?" A third tall man, almost the same height as the other two, told Noah and hit him hard on his face.
Noah reverted back and punched him hard in his stomach. He groaned in pain.
The first man came from behind and hit Noah on his back.
Noah immediately turned around and kicked him hard on his chest, making him too fall on the ground. He too started groaning in pain.
The second man stood up from the ground and was going to attack Noah from behind.
"Noah, look behind," I shouted and Noah looked behind before he could hit him.
Noah held his hand and turned it around making him groan in more pain.
"How dare you touch her? Do you know who she is? She is Noah Roberts's wife, my wife. No one has the right to touch her except me. She is mine, only mine. I will kill you," Noah growled at him and kicked him on his ass making him hit the ground straight on his front.
I am his! Yes, definitely I am his and only his! I want to be only his, always and forever!
Suddenly someone hit Noah on his head with a rod from behind. He groaned in pain and fell on the ground. The back of his head was bleeding badly.
I looked behind to find the first man standing there with a steel rod in his hand.
Before I could understand what was going on, all three of them started kicking Noah like a football.
I immediately sat down, trying to cover up Noah and protect him from their kicks.
They were kicking very hard and it was hurting me badly. Tears were continuously flowing from my eyes. But I can't leave Noah alone. I can't let them kick him like this.
"Please leave him! I am sorry from his side! Please leave him! I beg you please leave him!" I told them, still crying and groaning in pain.
But none of them cared enough to listen to me and continued kicking us.
I looked around to see people staring at us, but no one dared to come in front and help us,
"Please help me! Please help us!" I shouted, begging everyone for help. But still no one dared to help us.
Suddenly one of the three men made me stand up by pulling my hair. I groaned in pain.
"You, you b***h! This all happened just because of you! How dare your husband hit us? Now he will regret his decision. Or maybe he won't be alive anymore to regret on his decision." He told and all three of them started laughing like devils.
No, no, no! This can't happen. Noah, you have to be alive for me! I can't live without you! I will die without you! Their words made me cry even more. I can't bear to lose him. No, no, no! I can't!
"Come with us baby! Let's have some fun," He told me and started dragging me and pulling me by my hair. It was hurting like someone was pricking me with needles.
"Please leave me," I told them, but they didn't hear.
I tried to look behind only to find Noah lying on the ground, fully in unconsciousness.
"Noah! Please get up! You can't leave me like this! Noah please get up!" I shouted but he didn't move even a bit.
"He won't get up baby, he won't," The other man told me and they all started laughing again, still dragging me by my hair.
I don't care what they will do with me! If they want to hurt me, let them do that. But please tell them to free me for a while so that I can at least save Noah and take him to a hospital. I will surrender myself to them, but please let me go and save Noah first. I can't live without him! God damn it, I will die without him.
"Noah please wake up. Please wake up for me!" I whispered to myself as they were still dragging me.
They took me to a car and opened the door for me. They forced me to get in the car.
I tried to free myself from their hold and run away but all my attempts were in vain. They were forcing me and pushing me hard to get in the car.
I closed my eyes, as I couldn't handle this anymore. Noah was lying there almost lifeless and I can do anything to save him.
All this happened just because of me. I am responsible for everything! What will I tell his parents? God, what will I tell my own self? How will I answer my inner self?
Suddenly my hair were freed from the man's hold. I immediately opened my eyes and looked behind to find Noah standing there with the same steel rod in his hand.
He had hit the man hard on his head making him fall on the ground and loose his consciousness.
Noah started hitting the other two with the same rod. Both of them started groaning in pain.
Suddenly a car stopped there and the police came out from it. They came towards us, held the three men and took men with them. One of the police officer came to us,
"Are you both alright? Someone called us and informed that there was some crime going on here. He didn't give his identity and just asked us to reach here immediately. Are you two fine? Or we can take you to hospital?" He told us.
"No, we are fine sir. Thank you but we can now help ourselves from here. Please don't trouble yourself for us," Noah told the police and after a hand shake, the police officer left us and sat in his car and the police drove away with all three of them.
I immediately ran towards Noah and hugged him tightly, so tight that I could feel my breasts being pressed hardly on his chest.
I snuggled my head in his chest.
I could feel him smirking at me, but I don't care. He is alive, that is the only thing I care right now.
He hugged me back, making me feel safe again.
I hugged him even more tightly and cried my eyes out in his arms and on his chest.
I love him! Yes you heard it right! I love him, very much!
*****************************
■ CHAPTER 59 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
"Is he alright doctor?" I asked the lady doctor, who was treating Noah.
"His head was badly bleeding. We have successfully stopped the bleeding. But a huge amount of blood was lost before you came here. The loss was not too severe to give him a blood transfusion. Just make sure he rests more and eat things which helps him in regaining the blood he has lost. Nothing to worry about though. The nurse will explain you about the medications. After that, you can take him home." The doctor smiled and replied, patting me on the back giving me reassurance that everything will be alright.
"Thank you doctor. Thank you so much," I told the doctor and she left.
The nurse came and explained me about the medications which had to be given to Noah. After understanding everything, I went inside the room to get Noah ready to go home.
He was peacefully sleeping there. I didn't want to wake him up and disturb him in his sleep but I had to.
"Noah, get up. Doctor has discharged you. We can now go home." I told Noah, shaking him lightly.
He opened his eyes and I helped him to get up and took him to the car. He was still weak, so I was supporting him while walking.
After reaching the car, I opened the door for him and helped him sit inside the car. After making him comfortably sit in the car, I too sat besides him and the car drove.
After about 15 minutes, we were at our destination.
I immediately got out of the car and went to his side, opening the car door for him. I supported and helped him to get out of the car and took him directly to our room. I laid him on the bed and asked him to comfortably sit there.
"Noah, I will be back in a minute," I told him and he just nodded his head in agreement.
I went to the kitchen and made the juice for him. I cut the apple into pieces, as the doctor had advised me to give him foods which help him in regaining his lost blood, and kept them on the plate. I then took both the things to the room in a tray, which I was holding in my hand.
When I went inside the room, Noah was sitting there, checking his phone. I kept the tray on the bed-side table and took the phone away from him,
"Give that to me, please. You should rest as the doctor had advised. But before that you have to eat and drink this," I told him, placing the phone aside and handing him the plate and glass of juice.
He took the glass from my hand and I placed the plate of apple in front of him.
I sat there in front of him, making sure he completed everything.
When he finished, I took the empty glass and the plate from his hand and kept them on the tray again. Carrying the tray, I turned around to go to the kitchen, but suddenly Noah stopped me by holding my wrist. He took the tray from my hand and placed it on the bed-side table again.
He then wrapped his hand over my hand,
"Thank you princess for taking care of me," he told me.
I wrapped my other hand over his hand, which was wrapping my hand already,
"No. I should be thanking you, Noah. You saved me from those devils. You didn't think about yourself and protected me from them. Also I am really sorry, that you got hurt because of me," I told him and a tear dropped from my eye, as the whole event passed in front of my eyes.
Suddenly Noah pulled me towards himself and made me sit on his lap,
"Don't. Don't do that again," he told me.
"Do what Noah?" I said still feeling sad.
"Don't cry again princess. I can't see you crying," he told me and wiped my tears with his one hand. He pulled me closer to him by wrapping his one arm around me, pulled my face closer and immediately placed his lips over mine. He started kissing me hungrily. I didn't resist him this time, maybe due to the reason that I had realized that I love him a lot.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, making sure I don't touch the back of his head and hurt him.
I could hear him moan in my mouth. He immediately flipped our positions and made me lie on the bed. He was now lying over me and I was beneath him, but we were still kissing each other. I was still in my two pieces bikini, as everything happened so fast that I didn't get the time to change. I had to rush to the hospital, making sure Noah gets treated as early as possible. But luckily the lady doctor there rented me her coat for a day.
Noah started moving his hand over my body. He pressed my one breast, making me moan in his mouth. His hand then moved over my abdomen, making me moan even more. He stopped kissing me and started leaving butterfly kisses across my neck, making butterflies fly hard in my stomach. I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes as the feeling was too much for me to handle. His mouth then went to my breasts and he kissed my cleavage making me moan louder.
His mouth then reached my stomach and he started kissing me there, but his hands were still exploring my breasts. Butterflies were now flying even more harder in my stomach.
But suddenly he stopped. God, why did he stop?
I opened my eyes and looked down to see him carefully looking at my stomach.
I placed my hand in his hair and started playing with them,
"What happened? Why did you stop?" I asked him.
"I am sorry princess." He told me, sounding really sad.
Sorry for what? What happened now?
"Sorry for what Noah?" I asked him, still playing with his hair.
He immediately came upwards and kissed me on my lips, more harder this time, making me gasp for air.
He finally took his lips away from mine and placed his one hand on my cheeks and started rubbing it with his thumb,
"Princess, I am sorry. I am sorry that you were hurt because of me. You are bruised all over your body princess. They were kicking you and I couldn't do anything to save you princess," he told me sadly.
I placed my hand over his face,
"No Noah, I should be sorry. You were placed in that situation just because of me. You were hurt because of me. in fact, I should thank you for coming forward and protecting me." I told him.
He placed his index finger over my lips and stopped me from talking further,
"Stop thanking. You are mine and protecting you is my duty." He told me and stopped for a moment, licking his lips and making me want to kiss him harder,
"You know I was scared for the first time in my life. When they were dragging you by your hair and away from me, I was scared. I was scared of loosing you. I know you were hurt, but trust me I could feel your pain. It was like they were hurting me. Princess, please never go away from me again." Noah told me.
"Never. I will never go away from you, Noah." I told him, caressing his cheek.
A smile immediately spread over his sad face and he pulled me into the kiss again.
After kissing for what felt like years, we finally broke the kiss,
"Can I ask you for something Noah? I know you have done for me a lot. But can I ask you yet one more thing?" I asked him.
"You can ask anything, my princess. You can ask even for my life," he told me, caressing my cheek, but I stopped him by placing my hand over his mouth.
"Never say that again. You life is precious. I was also scared, scared of loosing you Noah. And tonight I want you to make me completely yours, Noah. I want to get lost in you. I want you inside me, Noah. I want us to become one tonight. Will you be able to give me that?" I asked him, biting my lower lip.
"Don't do that. That lip of yours is only mine to bite. You are not allowed to do that. Just get ready to get sore tomorrow morning. Tonight, I am not letting you sleep even for a second. All the time, you will just be moaning my name and I would love to make you moan my name even more louder every time." He told me and with that again placed his lips over mine.
I couldn't control but smile in his mouth. Tonight, I am going to be his and he is going to be mine. We are going to be one tonight!

■ CHAPTER 60 :-
* Recommended only for 18+ *
ANGELA'S POV :-
Noah finally broke the kiss after what felt like years, and started kissing me along my jaw line. His hand went to my back and he unhooked my bra, removed it immediately and threw it somewhere in the room. I didn't even realise that he had already removed my coat. He reached my cleavage and kissed me there. He pressed my one breast making me moan loudly.
"Angela, you are beautiful. Beautiful and sexy. You are only mine to cherish princess." He said and with that started assaulting my n*****s with his tongue, making me moan loudly. I started breathing heavily. All these feeling were new to me. Butterflies started flying hard in my stomach. I couldn't wait for him to drive me crazy tonight.
He started sucking my n*****s along with pressing my breasts with his hands. I closed my eyes as all these feeling were new to me and I just wanted to savour the moment and the memory.
He then started kissing and licking my abdomen making me moan even more loudly. He came up and started kissing me softly,
"I hope you are not very fond of your present panties dear," he whispered in my ear.
Before I could understand what he meant to say, he tore it from the side and threw it somewhere in the room, making me all naked.
I opened my eyes to see him lying on me fully naked. Was I so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even realize when he removed all his clothes? Maybe yes, I was so lost.
My eyes went to his south and it scared me for a moment,
"What happened princess? Why you look so scared?" Noah asked me.
"I...umm... I... I mean... you are so big Noah. I am a virgin and I am afraid of getting hurt." I told him, biting my lower lip between my teeth.
He laughed loudly, with his vibrations also reaching my body and I don't know why but I felt satisfied. I felt like my life has become fruitful. I just wanted him to laugh like that forever and always and I can see him laughing like that for my entire life. A smile spread widely on my face.
"Trust me princess. I will never hurt you. I can hurt myself, but I can never hurt you." He whispered in my ears.
He went down and started licking my c******s making me moan his name loudly. My breath became heavy and I started breathing very fast.
He then placed his middle finger in my v****a and started moving it fast.
"You are already wet for me, my princess," he told me and inserted his two fingers in my v****a, making me moan even more loudly.
I bit my lower lip as all these were so new and unbearable for me, yet I wanted him to continue and enjoy the same.
"Don't play with me Noah. f**k me already." I told him.
And just like he was waiting for me to say that, he immediately inserted his d**k inside my v****a, but slowly and carefully, trying his very hard that he didn't hurt me.
He then started thrusting slowly, making me a bit irritated,
"Noah, stop playing with me and ride me fast." I told him, with my hand grasping his hair.
"No princess, this is your punishment. You have made me wait for so long. Now you should also realize how it feels when you have to wait for someone," He told me, giving me a devilish smirk.
I narrowed my eyes at him and looked away from him, mimicking that I am angry at him.
He immediately made me look at him by pulling my face with his finger and kissed me hungrily again.
And with that he started driving me fast, making me moan his name loudly in his mouth.
All the feelings were so new to me that I had to grasp the bedsheet for controlling myself. We were both panting heavily and were covered with sweat all over our bodies.

*From here recommended for all*
I opened my eyes to find myself lying besides Noah and his one arm was wrapped around me, making me feel safe and happy. My head was lying on his bare, strong and muscular chest and his muscular arm kept me closer to him.
I looked up at his sleeping face and a smile immediately spread wide on my lips as all the memories of last night filled my mind.
I looked up at Noah's perfect masculine face and started tracing it with my index finger. I moved my finger over his forehead, then his perfect nose, then his perfect red lips which gave me pleasure last night and then his perfect chin.
"Like what you see princess?" Noah asked suddenly, making me shriek a bit.
"You were awake?" I asked him, looking away from him, as I was embarrassed that my husband had found me checking him out without any shame.
He placed his index finger below my chin and made me look towards him. But I still didn't dare to look him in his eyes,
"Awww. Look someone is blushing furiously," Noah told me.
Yes, I am sure I was red like a tomato. But I can't tell him that I definitely agreed with him,
"Who is blushing? I am not blushing," I said and looked away from him, but my stupid smile was not ready to stop.
Suddenly Noah got up, placed him over me, held my both wrists with his both hands and pinned them over my head.
I looked up at him and as our eyes met, my breathing stopped. All the events of last night came rushing in my mind, making me bite my lower lip.
Noah immediately placed his lips over mine and kissed me hungrily.
After what felt like years, he finally broke the kiss,
"Angela, I can never get enough of you. You are always new to me. Your heart is mine to cherish and your body is mine to explore. You are mine and only mine, princess." Noah whispered to me placing his nose over my nose.
And I, I couldn't help myself in hiding my wide smile.

■ CHAPTER 61 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
Noah laid himself on the bed, wrapped me in his arm and pulled me closer to him. I placed my head on his chest and was able to hear his heartbeat. I felt safe and relaxed there. I wanted the time to stop and wished we could remain like that forever.
"You were amazing last night, princess," Noah told me rubbing his hand on my upper arm.
"Really?" I lifted my head up, looked at him and asked him eagerly.
"Yes, of course princess. You were truly amazing. What I felt with you, I have never felt that before with anyone else. You are precious. There is no one else like you." He told me and paused in between. I narrowed my eyes at him and he started speaking again,
"If you don't believe, then I can replay the whole night again. Want to join me?" He asked me, with mischievousness popping in his eyes.
I hit him slightly on his chest,
"Can you please just shut up?" I asked him and immediately pulled my head down again on his chest as I was sure that my cheeks were more red than even a tomato.
"Oh my princess, you look even more hot and sexy when you blush. I am already hard for you princess." Noah told me.
"Well, then you will have to wait Mr. Noah. As I am already sore from last night. And you were definitely too good but it really hurts there," I told him, making him laugh loudly, with the vibrations of his body reaching my body.
We stayed there like that for what felt like years and just peacefully enjoyed hearing each other's heartbeats.
"Princess, can you make a coffee for me?" Noah asked me.
"Of course," I told him and immediately pulled myself up from his arms.
I looked around and spotted my bag lying in the corner. I searched for my bra and panty in there and immediately found them. I wore them and went to make the coffe in the kitchen.
I made two mugs of hot coffee and placed them on a tray, one for me and one for Noah.
When I reached the room, I opened the door and went inside, but as soon as I stepped inside the room, suddenly Noah snatched the tray from my hand and placed it aside on the table. He picked me up in his arms, making me shriek in fear,
"Put me down, Noah. I will fall!" I told me.
"Oh princess, I am hurt. Don't you trust me? Do you really think I will ever let you fall. Never princess, never. I will never let you fall," Noah told me and started walking towards the bathroom.
"And where do you think we are going?" I asked him, still in surprise as to why is he taking me towards the bathroom.
The door of the bathroom was already opened. He stepped inside it and placed me carefully in bath-tub. The bath-tub was already filled with water and lots and lots of bubbles in it. The water was slightly hot, not too hot to hurt me, but rather I liked it.
"Wait here. I will be back in a second." Noah told me and left the bathroom.
I closed my eyes and placed my head back on the bath-tub, enjoying the warm water relaxing my body.
Suddenly I heard the sound of something being placed.
I opened my eyes to see Noah placing the tray, which held the mugs of coffee, besides the bath-tub. He too stepped inside the bath-tub and settled himself behind me. I placed my head on his chest and he started massaging my shoulders and my neck.
"Why all this, Noah?" I asked him.
"You told me you were sore. So I thought warm water will relax you somewhat. And you know hot water with hot coffee is really a good combination." He told me, giving me one of the mugs from the tray.
I took it from his hand and started enjoying sipping the hot coffee. The whole thing really relaxed me a lot.
Noah placed his mouth in the crook of my neck and started kissing me there, making me close my eyes again.
His hands started massaging my breasts, making butterflies fly hard in my stomach and making me moan loudly.
"Princess," Noah whispered softly in my ear.
"Hmmm," I replied back as I was not able to find any words coming from my mouth at that time.
"Be ready tonight at 8 pm. We are going out for a dinner and I also have a surprise for you." He whispered in my ear. And I couldn't speak, so just nodded my head in agreement.
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
I looked at myself in the mirror for what must be a hundredth time then.
I was not sure if I looked good or not.
I was wearing a black backless mini dress, which tightly hugged my body and made my curves look clearly visible.
I reapplied my lipstick for the last time now and grabbed my clutch before going out of the house, where Noah was waiting for me with his car.
When I went outside, I saw Noah waiting for me while bending against his car. He was looking hot and handsome in his formal suit. He was busy checking his phone.
But I guess, he sensed me coming as he immediately stood straight, placed his phone in his pocket and looked at me.
He checked me from top to bottom and his eyes widened in return. His mouth was open, his lower jaw almost hitting the ground.
Just kidding!
But from his expressions, I can feel that he liked what he saw.
I went towards him and closed his mouth my shutting his lower jaw,
"Close it or else you will catch a fly, Mr. Noah." I teasingly told him.
He shook his head, and then suddenly leaned in whispering in my ear,
"Oh, so you want to play, Mrs. Noah. Then two can play this game, princess,' He winked at me and opened the car door for me.
"Sure," I told him, sat inside the car and he closed the car door behind me.
He ran to the other side, sat inside the car and ordered the driver to start the car.
After about fifteen minutes, the car stopped.
I looked out from the closed window and saw that we were standing besides a huge building, which I guess had more than 10 floors.
I didn't realise Noah getting out of the car and coming to my side.
He opened the car door for me and offered me his hand, which I happily held and he helped me to get out of the car.
He closed the car door behind me and guided me ahead by placing his hand on my bare back, making me jerk a bit.
Even just his touch ignites sparks in my body.
We went inside the building and as we came near the elevator, Noah suddenly stopped,
"From here princess, you will have to go blindfold. I will guide you and you just have to follow my guidance like a good girl. Will you be able to do that Mrs. Noah?" Noah told me.
I just nodded my head in agreement as to what was going in his head. Not that I don't trust him. in fact, I now trust him even more than I trust myself.
Still I was excited to know what surprise he had and what was going in his head.
*******************************
■ CHAPTER 62 :-
ANGELA'S POV :-
I stepped into the elevator, with Noah holding my hand and guiding me as he had covered my eyes by tying a red piece of cloth around them and had blindfolded me.
The elevator took a few minutes, and then came to a stop. I left the elevator with Noah. He guided me somewhere and I just followed his instructions quietly.
Then suddenly Noah stopped and I too stopped walking after him. I could feel him going behind me and suddenly he held me from behind tightly by my waist, encircling his arms around my waist.
"Now I am going to remove this piece of cloth, which is tied around your eyes. Open your eyes very slowly," he whispered in my ear, with his hot breath touching my ear and passing bolts of current down my spine. I just nodded my head in agreement.
He slowly opened the knot and removed the piece of cloth tied around my eyes. I slowly opened the eyes and what I saw made my jaw hit the ground.
This can't be true! I am dreaming! How can this be true? Does he really...?
We were standing under the light of the moon, on the terrace garden of that tall building. The sky was full of twinkling stars, which were sparkling and shining like diamonds.
And the view in front of me was unbelievable! I was just stunned with what was in front of me!
The sea waves were moving up and down and with them was floating my name. Yes my name!
In the black background the only lights present were having my name in them.
It was written "I LOVE YOU ANGELA" all over the sea visible to me.
How? How can this be even possible? How can he arrange to reflect my name in those sea waves. Is there some helicopter above, which is radiating the light? Or are there some huge poles with lights arranged to reflect my name in the sea? How? How did he do this?
And what shocked me the most was the message written on the sea!
'I LOVE YOU ANGELA'!
What? Am I dreaming? Noah, The Noah Roberts loves me?
I now love him more than I love myself. But I was compromising with the fact that I can never get his love in return. That I was only his one more fling, and he will use and throw me one day. That I can never be his one and only mate!
But what was present in front of me was total contradictory of my thoughts.
He loves me! Yes, he loves me! The feeling is mutual. I am not just a fling! I am his one and only mate! And he is my one and only!
Tears started dropping from my eyes. No, these were the tears of happiness. The happiness that the person I love, loves me back. He too loves me! The feeling is mutual.
Suddenly lights were turned on all around the place, making the place twinkle like it was a Christmas Eve!
I turned around to see Noah, but he was nowhere to be found.
Then suddenly my eyes went downwards and there he was, kneeling on his one knee, holding a red rose in his hand,
"Angela, princess. I know I never asked for your choice in this marriage. I just forced you in this marriage. I forced you to marry me. But trust me Angela, the moment I saw you on that street, that same moment I fell in love with you. I searched for you in the entire city after that, but you were nowhere to be found. And then suddenly when you appeared in front of me in my office, asking me to leave your father, the only thought that came in my mind was marrying you,.. marrying you by any means. And blackmailing you, was the only thing which I felt right at that moment. I wanted to tell you that I love you, but my impression was not so good in front of your eyes. You might have thought that I am lying and all this is just to sleep with you. I wanted to win your heart. I wanted to win your trust. I wanted to make you mine completely and forever! But last night when you told me that you want our relationship to go ahead and you want me to completely make you mine, I felt that this was the perfect time to propose you. I know it sounds stupid to propose after marriage, but Mrs. Angela Roberts, will you be mine forever and ever?" Noah told me.
No! This can't be true! I am surely dreaming! If this is really a dream, then I am going back to sleep again and please don't wake me up for my entire life as I want to sleep and dream this for my entire life.
I pinched myself and damn it was real! Everything was real!
I opened my mouth to say something, but closed it again as I couldn't find any words to speak.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe to take everything in and finally opened my eyes,
"Yes, I will be yours, Mr. Noah, forever and ever!" I replied, taking the flower from his hand.
He stood up and placed his hand in his pocket and took out a small box from it.
He opened it and there was a beautiful diamond ring in it. He took the ring in his hand, closed the box and placed it again in his pocket.
He took my right hand and placed the ring in my ring finger, as my left hand finger was already studded with his engagement ring.
"Mr. Noah, do you know that I am already married?" I teasingly told him showing him my left hand, "And trust me my husband won't be very happy to find that you have proposed me. I guess he will be very angry and might not leave you." I told him.
"Oh, I see," Noah replied, tapping his chin with his index finger, "don't worry Mrs. Angela, I will handle him in my own way. But I will never share you with anyone else Mrs. Angela. You are mine and only mine," Noah told me, making us both laugh loudly.
He picked me up in his arms by my hips and started rotating me under the dark open sky!
