1. C.E.O
Sonny's p.o.v
I entered my bedroom feeling exhausted.
The meeting dragged on a lot more than I had anticipated. Our partners were meant to be satisfied and happy with our planned cooperation and theme.
After all, A Cops wasn't a name to disappoint. A Cops was a very well-known and one of the most respected companies in the whole country. Not because of its amazing founders my grandparents. But because of the best results it brought. Any idea which was put on the table was immediately sold out for a billion dollars.
The service rendered there was of high quality too. The staff were well mannered, trained, and educated. The best of the top class that was known in the country. And above all that brilliance was the name. Sonny Andrews. C.E.O of A Cops.
Not to brag. I was what most men hated with envy. And what the ladies lusted for. I was the very living proof of perfect. I stood at 6'2. And my dress code was always on point. Designer shoes and a black suit with a light grey shirt inside. Neat black short hair with an amazing built I maintained at the gym.
I spoke less to people because I believed in actions more than words. To some, I was viewed as a cold rich bastard while to some as a serious playboy.
But what they didn't know was that, beneath all that, I had a big heart. And that heart only beat for one woman. Martha Brown.
She was the first woman to ever make me fall. She was all I thought of and wanted. She was also the first woman to ever treat me coldly and spit to my face. Sadly I couldn't let her go no matter what. She was mine and mine alone.
I was about to walk to the wardrobe when I noticed a slight movement from the bed. My throat instantly became dry and my heart began beating rapidly.
Martha lay f*****g naked facing the roof with her mesmerizing body spread on the silky sheets, her long black hair looked like the beautiful woven spread that touched the colorful white bedspread.
She was like a beautiful tempting angel waiting for my caress and lips on her pale skin. My eyes slowly trailed from her beautiful innocent face to her medium pointy n*****s. I was dying to f*****g touch her every curve, s**t I knew what kind of hell I would unleash. I was about to gaze down below when she shifted again, this time facing the right side.
I carefully put my suitcase down and made a few careless noise footsteps to deliberately wake her up.
When a second went by without her up. I coughed loudly and annoyingly.
She slowly opened her eyes and blinked a few times.
"Do you mind?" I asked with a fake annoyed voice.
She looked at me for a minute then closed her eyes.
"Can you go and sleep in the spare bedroom," I said with emphasis.
"No." She spat then sat upright.
I took in a deep breath and tried to calm myself when her hair fell perfectly on her shoulders making her look way more sexier than before.
"Look......" I began.
"No." She answered cutting me off.
She really knew how to get me angry at all times. That's why I made sure to give her a taste of her own medicine.
"Well, you don't seem happy to see your husband darling. Is it because you were forced into this marriage?" I asked teasingly.
When she didn't respond. I smirked happily knowing very well that I had won. She hated the idea of being my wife. But she mostly hated to be reminded that she was chained to the very man that she despised.
"Look at you, sleeping naked but you even refuse to hold hands." I said silently to myself then took off his jacket.
"Martha, dress up or go and sleep in the spare bedroom. I know that I gave you my word of never laying a hand on you. But this here is way too much for me to handle." I said honestly while I took off the rest of my clothes.
"You will drive me nuts Martha. Did you at least cook?" I asked then turned to face her.
When I saw her facing her back towards me I laughed silently. She really was like a different person from her past self.
"Guess not as usual." I whispered then walked to the bathroom.
I stepped in the shower and turned it on, as the water poured on my body. My thoughts wandered to the conversation I had with my best friend before the shitty hell I was living in now.
Flashback (6 months ago)
"What are you doing Sonny?. Can't you just let the lady go?" Brad asked in a loud voice.
I furiously shut my laptop on my desk and glared at him. How dare he. He really had the nerve to walk into my office only to speak rubbish.
"You can't force her man." He said seriously.
"You know what brother. Your reasoning is weak. I will force her to love me, whether she wants it or not, she will fall for me." I answered with confidence.
"Why?" Brad asked curiously.
"Because I want her, I desire her, I lust for her. I need her in my f*****g life for Christ's sake." I spat.
He sighed loudly then shook his head.
"Those are the very wrong reasons to marry someone. You must have been crazy or possessed to force the poor lady into marriage. Are you a Moran?" He spat as I angrily stood up.
"What the f**k did you just call me?" I asked coldly.
"f**k you, Sonny, you don't intimidate me in any way. Weren't you the same bastard who said that she was already engaged to someone else?" He said seriously.
I kept quiet for a minute and sighed in defeat.
"Really Brad. How can you bring up that good for nothing alcoholic into this conversation?" I asked.
"Have you thought about why she was engaged to him?. Maybe she was in love with......"
"Geez cut it out asshole. Martha deserves a good-looking C.E.O who is rich and able to take care of her every needs and wants." I answered proudly.
"The problem with you is that you don't reason when you make up your mind." He said then sighed softly.
"Fine. Tell me, what are you planning to do?" He asked.
"Well, I told you then, didn't I?. I found that worthless alcoholic man beating her up like she was some trash can or something." I said honestly.
"Yes, and you just had to be the hero and save her." He spat with sarcasm.
"Of course, how could I have let her be when it was love at first sight. after that, I asked her to marry me. She first thought of it as a weird joke and laughed it out. But when she saw how serious I was, she rejected me instantly." I said sadly.
