Ties That Bind Us

Summer's POV

I turned sideways as my hand came to my exposed shoulder, shielding it from the cold. I yawned as my eyes opened slowly. I shut them back quickly due to the bright light that shone through the window.

I opened my eyes once more, trying to adjust them to the light and my vision eventually cleared. I could hear the chirping of birds from the window and my eyes looked around my surroundings.

It was a grand hotel room, it was huge and seemed to be the best suite, beautifully decorated and furnished with many modern luxuries. It must have cost a lot of money and I smiled, knowing that Daniel had only done this for me, to make our anniversary night special.

And then I remembered, I was yet to thank him for the wonderful surprise and the passionate night. I decided to wake him up with an array of kisses but I got the biggest shock of my life when I shifted the sleeping man so he could face me only to see the face of someone else!

Oh my God! Is this a joke? I gasped and got up from the bed with the speed of light, wrapping up my naked body with the blanket.

I almost couldn't believe my eyes as tears flowed down my cheeks. How could I be so unfortunate? 19 years of being chaste, of saving myself only to lose it to some random man by mistake? How could this have happened?

Why couldn't I have guessed that it wasn't Daniel? My mind instantly flashed back to the incident that had transpired yesterday. That mean looking man in a suit was the one that had brought me to this room, but why? I had never met him in my life so I couldn't have offended him so why did he play such a cruel joke on me? Who could have done this to me? How will I be able to live with myself? 

And most importantly,what would I tell Daniel? What excuse would I give for missing our anniversary night? I couldn't tell him I was in a hotel room with a stranger, having the time of my life. More tears poured down my cheeks as shame overcame me.

The sleeping man on the bed stirred and fear instantly gripped me. I didn't have time to think as I gathered my clothes which were scattered all over the floor. Luckily, I was able to find my purse as well.

I rushed to the bathroom and put on my clothes as quietly as possible. I opened the bathroom door slightly and peeked and when I was sure he was still asleep, I left the room as quickly and quietly as I could, the soreness between my legs not helping my situation.

Once I was finally out the door, I broke into tears, letting my body shake with sobs. How could this have happened? Why did this have to happen? Who was the man I slept with? Why didn't he stop it? What was going on? These were the questions that ran through my mind, I couldn't think straight because I was confused as hell.

"Miss, are you alright?" A kind looking gentleman asked me, probably concerned with how much I was crying.

"I'm…… I'm fine." I replied, my voice shaky as my tears choked me. I suddenly started feeling claustrophobic and I knew I had to leave here as soon as possible, before anyone saw me.

I quickly wiped my tears and sprinted to the elevator, ignoring the still concerned looking man. I pressed the open button on the elevator and my heart stopped for the second time that day, at the sight in front of me.

In the elevator was Daniel, passionately kissing a lady who was scarcely dressed. They looked like they were going to eat each other's faces off. My eyes widened in shock and my mouth fell open of its own accord. Just what the hell was going on today? Has the universe finally decided to conspire against me? First I just found out I slept with the wrong man and now I've just caught my boyfriend cheating on me with a w***e.

Another round of fresh tears fell down my cheeks. "Daniel." I called, my voice sounding a little hoarse but it was loud enough to break up their little love show. Daniel smirked at me instead of apologizing. He simply pulled me into the elevator and soon had me up against the wall.

He crushed his lips to mine but I was too stunned to do anything at first. When my brain was finally able to send the right signal to my body, I pushed him away and wiped my lips in disgust, my vision almost blurry with tears. Daniel and the w***e just exchanged glances at each other and began to laugh at me so much that I quickly felt more confused than betrayed.

"Oh dear Summer, my naïve little pet. Why do you always have to act so coy with me when we both know the truth about you." Daniel said with a smirk.

"What…….. What are you talking about?" I questioned, my heart beating at a rate that was probably faster than normal. Had he seen me walk out of that room? Did he know? But even if he did, that wasn't an excuse for such behavior. He should have confronted me instead of doing this, just like a gentleman or at least a normal person would.

"Your tone says it all Summer, you've been busted. I feel happy more than disappointed to find out the truth about you because I can finally get rid of you. You're nothing but a slut, a gold digger who serves herself to the highest bidder." Daniel said and my heart clenched, his words hurting me deeply.

"What are you saying to me?" I questioned, more tears falling down my cheeks.

"Will you ever stop pretending? You're rushing out of a hotel early in the morning and you smell of s*x, what more evidence do you want me to see? Your c*m filled snatch?" He questioned so crudely.

"What are you saying? You called me here, for our anniversary night." I defended myself. "Exactly, but you never showed. I'm just glad I had this lovely little piece of sunshine to keep me company. Now that I know the truth about you,that you're nothing but a slut, I guess there's no need to pretend anymore. I've had more than enough of you. The truth is I never loved you from the beginning, you just looked so beautiful and so innocent. Had all the right curves in just the right places and each time I saw you, I couldn't help but think how great you'd look under me, taking my d**k. You weren't a one night stand type of person so I had to fake loving you and dating you so I could finally get a taste of that p***y you hoard so much. It was a major disappointment when you still refused to have s*x with me. I obviously had to get other girls since I wasn't getting what I wanted, I was going to end it with you when you called yesterday saying that you were ready.

I was so happy that I would finally be able to f**k you so I could end this fake relationship and move on, I even booked a room in this big hotel. I had lovely Liya with me, just in case you decided not to show and I'm glad that I did. I'm not interested in you anymore, especially since I've found that you're nothing but a w***e. So I'm breaking up with you Summer Messina, I never want to see your cheating ass anywhere near me ever again." He said and went back to kissing the girl like I wasn't even there.

I couldn't say a word, only cried as I ran out of the elevator. I put my hand to the left side of my chest as I could feel my heart hurting so badly. I don't know if I'll survive this.

Daniel Valentino's POV

My eyes flew open and I quickly brought my hand to my head as it hurt like hell. I looked around the room and blinked repeatedly, trying to remember how I had come here. My headache increased but I didn't stop until I could remember.

The last thing I remember is drinking some wine in celebration of my company's victory. We'd just won a major contract worth billions. After that, I began to feel strange and everything after that is so hazy that it's hard to clearly remember. I sit up and only then do I notice that I'm naked, a flitting flashback occurs to me of a woman, I couldn't see her face or anything else but I could remember touching her hot body, I remembered the sweet taste of her lips and how good being inside of her felt. I felt blood pooling at my groin and I instantly became hard.

I got up from the bed and grabbed a robe, putting it on. I instantly fetched my phone and called my secretary.

"Secretary Kim, I was drugged last night, find out who is responsible. In the next twenty four hours,I want the name of the culprit or you'll certainly see the worst of me." I ordered, my tone lethal.

"Y……. Yes sir." Secretary Kim said over the phone, she sounded so petrified, as if she was actually shaking but I really couldn't give two shits about her. I ended the call. I need to find out who in the world has the audacity to toy with me, Daniel Valentino like that.

Nearly twelve hours later, I'm in my office and I receive a phone call.

"Sir, the drugged wine was sent by a man named Nigel Bjorn, he's working for your long time rival,Mr Quentin Remus." Secretary Kim's voice came through the phone.

"I had a guess. I want you to do me a favour, Miss Kim, send people to find and finish Mr Bjorn off. I'd also like you to send the severed hand of Mr Bjorn to Mr Remus along with a thank you note, as a little gift from me." I instructed, a curt smile on my lips.

"Yes sir, it will be done." Secretary Kim said and went off the line. I didn't have to think much before I discovered Quentin's motive for drugging me with an aphrodisiac. He probably wanted to prepare a video of me having s*x with some w***e and circulate it, to tarnish my image but something deep within me tells me his plan was a failure. Besides, even if he had succeeded and did have a video of me, after my gift,he'd think twice before releasing it.

I look at my wristwatch, it's pretty late and I should be heading home. I leave the office and soon arrive home. I eat some dinner and take a bath before heading to bed to get some sleep.

*********************************************

I can't see her but I feel her, she kisses me and she tastes like the sweetest thing ever, my hands on her naked body feels like heaven, she smells of roses and my hands toyed with her luscious soft breasts………..

I woke up in a cold sweat, despite the air conditioner, my c**k hard as a rock. I couldn't take it anymore, I had to find her, I had to have her. My body craves her and I just have to have her. I think hard but I can't recall her face or anything else about her identity. How do I find her? How do I find the woman I crave so much!

Suddenly, I recall something she said, precisely a name. Daniel……. She had said my name but it was clear she had been referring to someone else. Daniel…. Somerset. She had called Daniel Somerset, that was a clue. I instantly phone Secretary Kim to find a man by the name of Daniel Somerset. I really hope I find her soon.
