Sophia’s pov
The next few days in the house were excruciatingly silent, we barely spoke and only did when we mouthed greeting and that was it, it’s was like living with an absolute stranger.
It’s not like I knew much about him hit still… this was unbearable. Moving around the silent house was enough to make me go crazy, I was trapped here and I had had enough.
Each morning I could hear him leave the house and come back later in the evening, no words spoken, just silence. I can’t let this continue to go on.
I brushed the sheets away from me and put on some flip flops, I had cleaned myself up earlier and made my way to his room, wearing a loser dress with my breasts hanging down since I wasn’t wearing a bra.
I was about to knock but hesitated, I rudely pushed the door open and stepped inside, Eiden turned around, half dressed and his expression unreadable, he said nothing and just watched me as if waiting for me to say something. “Are we just going to go on like this?” i finally said. “No honeymoon? No talking? Just pure silence to drive me crazy.”
“Honeymoon?” he asked like I had just said the most random thing.
“Of course.” i nodded, walking towards him but keeping a reasonable distance between us. “Arent we tryig to keep up hete? We are trying to mak them believe this nonsense between us is real, so get on with being an actor already.” i rolled my eyes, clearly annoyed, if he coukd get me out of here, i could definetely find a way to escape from here.
He stared at me with a smirk on his lips but there was a hint of slight anger in his eyes. “Oh that? You didnt need to bring it up, i already made the plans.”
I blinked profusely in shock. “Why?” I asked.
“Why?” he arche his brows, almiost as though he was confused. “ dont you want it?”
I was speechless, it was as though this man was a few steps ahead of me.
“Once I finalize the plan, we would be on our way to a very lonely and quiet island.. Just us two.” he leaned closer. “You in my strong hands, begging me for more..”he whispered.
I scrunched my face up in disgust. “Have some dignity will you?” I rolled my rolled, I didn’t know how long I was going to keep up with this nonsense but I didn’t have a choice. “Besides I don’t think we need a honeymoon anymore.”
He stared at me for a while. “I’m not going anywhere with you.”
Staring at him, his jaw tightened and then hi voice became colder. “Well I never gave you a choice.”
“I believe I can give myself a choice, what if I say no?@ I asked quieted this time.
“Then I will make you .” His threat hung him the air, I could feel my skin crawl in fear, it was like he was warning me not to make him mad, my breath faltered and my fingers twitched at my sides.
I didn’t say another word.
He leaned closer, holding my chin slightly up, and my body went tense.
“Now.” His voice was low and his eyes stared into mine. “Kiss me.”
My stomach churned, I blinked at him in disbelief, fear crippling me, I didn’t know why he was so keen on making me feel humiliated. Before I could think, my body moved, and I turned around heading towards the door.
My skin was crawling with goosebumps, and I didn’t know why I dared to just walk away.
Twisting the handle, it didn’t budge.
I froze, turned it again, and yet nothing.
The door was locked! How?
My heart began to race, I turned to him again, my expression was mixed with confusion and fear, he hadn’t mi ed from where he sttod, he watched me, his eyes now having a sharp glint to it.
I didn’t like the way he looked at me, there was a hint of hunger in them, not just desire, it was smoldering darker, and… possessive.
“Open the door,” I said.
He kept mute.
“I said f*****g open the door!”
Still nothing, just him staring at me, his gaze locked to mine.
I took a step back, my gaze darting around the room in hopes of finding a way to leave here, the window, the closet… just anything.
There was nowhere to go, I was trapped in here with this insane man.
And he was waiting.
The silence in the room was unnerving, I could hear my breath in my ears. Minutes had passed and still nothing.
I realized he wasn’t going to let me go unless I did what he asked of me.
My chest rise and fell, my hands curled into a fist at my sides, I stared down and up again. Gaining control of myself, my fists moved slowly, I was hesistant but stepped closer to him.
“I don’t want to do this,” I muttered, feeling an unsettling emotion that made my skin crawl.
He didn’t reply.
I stared at him for a moment sinking in what was about to happen, I shut my eyes and leaned forward, pressing my lips onto his.
“It’s okay Sophie you don’t have to hate yourself for giving in.” I mentally reminded myself.
I felt his hand mobe to my back, pulling me closer but I didn’t react, I didn’t let him deepen the kiss, I needed this to be o we as soon as possible.
Few seconds later he pulled away, his hand front let go right away, it lingerednon my waist, his eyes still staring into mine that I was starting to feel disgusted.
On didn’t know why, it was just a kiss and yet…
I felt something change…. I felt I wanted more.
