Marrying a Stranger

Chapter Ten

Jessica's POV.

I went for the one thing I could never get angry with no matter what because it helps me calm all my nerves which is chocolate.

I took lots of chocolates covered with varieties of fruits and filled my plate knowing I could never get tired of it, also with some cake made also of chocolate, which looking at it alone made my mouth watery even it my stomach was full, it became empty all of a sudden.

I heard a manly voice asking me if what I was taking was not too much for me, without even turning to see who was talking, I kept moving and making my choices ignoring all lady etiquettes since I don’t care about being in shape or not, and I decided not to also look all professional, but to loosen up and enjoy the moment.

I decided to take a new seat far away from my family and the Andersons so I could enjoy all my chocolates and cakes without being mindful of who is looking at me or not or who will complain about my consumption or not.

How aren’t you fat? I heard the same manly voice as before ask which made me to annoyingly look to see who that was and rolled my eyes, because am tired of people not minding their business and bring their suggestions to the table where more money can be made instead of being judgmental.

I ignored his statement and enjoyed my chocolate because I don’t was a situation where by my mind will be ruined making me angry that I won’t be able to enjoy the sweet pleasure my mouth and stomach is enjoying at the moment. I smiled at his and told him to help himself and enjoy it all before I walked away. I soon found a new place well hidden behind a thick draped pole and eagerly placed a chocolate in my mouth. The taste was so rich and juicy, it melted in my mouth. I continued eating my chocolate and cake as the chandelier lights dimmed and classical melodies played louder. While love sick couples headed to the dance floor, I sunk my tongue into the chocolate. I couldn’t imagine why one will choose a dance over this sweet dessert.

As my eyes were closed for a little while to enjoy the burst of chocolate sauce in my mouth, I suddenly opened my eyes and they landed straight on someone familiar and muscular whose hand was draped round a blonde’s waist and both of them were dancing hand in hand and chuckling. Narrowing my eyes not to be wrong on who it was, I realized it was none other than my so-called fiancé blatantly flirting even with our families being around.

I was not surprised that he was capable of this, but I was shocked that he couldn’t even hide it in front of either my parent or his, since the public didn’t know we were getting married yet. I just shook my head at the man w***e and continued eating my dessert.

I went half of my plate to finishing my dessert when my stomach started protesting. I was disappointed that I could no longer eat. I reluctantly left my plate and saw the time, which unfortunately read only 10pm, making me know I still had few more hours of boredom before retiring to my only comfort zone, which was my apartment. I stood from my seat, planning to go enjoy the garden view from the balcony but my stomach rumbled and an ache soon spread out. I clutched my stomach as the pain increased until it was almost unbearable making me think of cramps, no wonder I was freaking craving for chocolate so much and ate like a savage.

Taking in a few deep breaths and drinking cold water, I waited for a while. Mustering some courage, I stood up and started looking for my mother. I had to tell her I was going home. I know she’ll flip but I had to go before the pain got worse. I badly wanted to lie on my stomach. I clutched my stomach tighter, my eyes getting blurry due to the pain and my fingers were wrinkling the dress in the process as I continued looking for my mother.

I searched everywhere but couldn’t find her, so I decided to leave before my situation got worse. I walked to the emergency exit, hoping no one saw me and I hurried as fast as I could with one hand on my stomach and the other holding my purse. I looked for the driver and when I finally spotted him, I all but rant and collapsed in the leather seats begging him to hurry as I was in so much pain.

He asked if he should stop at the pharmacy first before heading home, but I couldn’t answer him due to the pain not giving me any room to do so. I just shook my head as a no because all I wanted was to get home and lye on my bed. And I begged him not to tell my mother about this before walking to the stairs of my apartment. I sprawled on my bed and felt so comfortable that I didn’t even bother to change my cloth.

I was still wearing the dress from last night when I woke up to bright light streaming through my open windows. Urgh I forgot to close the curtains last night I grumbled under my breath as I pushed the covers from my body. I’m sure my makeup must’ve smudged around my face making it almost impossible to scrub out. I entered my bathroom and prepared for a hot bath to relax my muscles.

Walking out of my bathroom after my tub water became cold and my stomach rumbling for hunger, I quickly wore something light and went to the kitchen to prepare something for myself. Passing the sitting room, I switched on the television to catch up on what is happening in the country, but was shocked with what I saw. On the screen of the television was my back picture with Alex beside me holding my waist while entering the party room on one side, and on the other side was the picture of Alex and that bimbo I saw him dancing with as they were exiting from the party with a head line “titled the rich billionaire lover boy comes with a beauty and left with another beauty”, as the news caster and her co host kept discussing who the first beauty was as my face didn’t show because the picture captured only my back side. And the funny part is that both I and the bimbo were wearing the same color of dress but with different design. Even with the way my stomach kept rumbling, what I just saw made me lose my appetite as I was filled with anger and disgust at my so call fiancé, but what do I expect from an arrogant arse like him who only but cares about himself? I decided to go give him the piece of me that he deserves as I dialed the family driver to come pick me up.

Storming out of the car with rage and anger asking the butler to allow me access through the gate, he had to act like the obedient staff member he was trained to be, he refused opening the gate and went to seek for permission as my name was the on the visitor’s list neither am I a family member that I will be allowed in without questioning or permission from the boss himself. He came back about 30 minutes later and granted me permission to go in which made me angrier that I had to wait for that long to see the arrogant man I am giving few years of my life to without love.

Entering the gate, I got captivated by the surrounding same way I had all eyes on me from all workers in the house which made me feel naked like they were seeing right through me. After my driver parked the car, I headed straight for the entrance door and started knocking continuously till someone came and opened it for me. Without glancing at the person at the door twice, I asked for where I could find Alex and was directed there which I took my leave and went straight to him, what I never expected was for where I could find him to be a pool.

The house entirely was a beauty to behold right from outside surrounding to the house itself made of bulletproof glass, to the entire decorations inside which had the combinations of gold, white and gray colors with an elevator just like the one in his company. I didn’t stay to admire the views of the house as I was filled with rage and wanted my mission to be accomplished without any distraction or diversion of mind, little did I know that the real distraction was what I was about to face.

Getting to the pool had me drooling for a few seconds before I diverted my attention so he won’t catch me gawking and checking him out in the pool as he was swimming. He didn’t even mind or look at me, making me feel like he didn’t know I was there, which made me to make a little sound to capture his attention or make him notice my presence, but he still ignored me. I closed my eyes for a few seconds to control my anger before opening them, only for me to meet with a set of eyes looking directly at e from the pool side. He took notice of my anger, asked me how he could help me mockingly with that signature smirk on his face, making my anger increase because of the way he called my name teasingly. Without pleasant greetings or anything, I went straight to the point and asked him where his f**k buddy was with a clenched jaw and gritted teeth.

Are u jealous sweet? His stupid smirk grew bigger and I could feel his ego boost. Actually no, I came to talk to her. His perfectly shaped eyebrow rose and his grey eyes sparkled with amusement. I wanted to apologise to her I spoke as I walked around the pool and got closer to his side. You see, she was she was indirectly nationally mocked for walking out with a man w***e and labelled a slut. I wanted to give her my condolences. It was my time to smirk as I look at Alex, but the arrogant arse just kept smirking before he grabbed hold of the edges of the pool and pulled his muscular body out of the pool. His biceps flexing and his 8 pecs became more prominent. He stood proud and tall in front of me with water dripping from his silky hair down his chest and disappearing down his well-defined V. I quickly turned my gaze to look at the flowers. I didn’t want him to see me checking him out, then definitely hie ego wouldn’t even fit in his brain.

Where’s your fucker he asked sounding so angry but his eyes held a mixture of amusement, anger and curiosity. Excuse me, I spoke shocked at what he just asked me. Let’s be honest here, he spoke lowly coming closer to me. After dinner, you just disappeared in thin air after talking t the bastard by the dessert. Two more steps and we’ll breath the same air but thankfully he stopped, if you wanted to so not let mummy dearest know, you didn’t have to wear the fucker’s shirt he spoke rudely jumping to his own conclusions without letting me explain. I couldn’t control my anger anymore as I closed the space between us and rose my hand to give him a hot dirty slap on the face, but he was fast enough as the caught my hand in mid air and pushed it behind me holding it in a tight grip. I began to struggle with him to free my hands off his grip without even realizing that I was so close and my chest was touching his wet shirtless one and so Is my lower body. He kept telling me to stop moving but I didn’t listen to him as all I wanted was to break free. I didn’t know why he kept telling me to stop moving not until I felt something poking me at my lower belly and realized what I was actually doing.

Alex breathed down on my neck trying to control himself, but his cool breath was making shivers run down my body, and the way he tightened his grip on my hip confirmed he knew especially with the way my n*****s were now tight buds, pressing shamelessly on his cool chest. I took in some breaths before I spoke hesitantly. Alex? He let go off my hands and took one of the hands to my neck, with the other on my waist. I put my both hands on his chest and tried to push him and move as far as I could, but he was too strong for me that I had to move. My movement made him groan and immediately lost control and he captured my lips with his without permission and began kissing me with urgency and need.

With the burst of energy heating through my body heating my inside, making me wink my nails into his chest, he groaned in my mouth and bit my lips, trying to make me open my mouth, but this time I wasn’t going to let him in. I was furious with him, but the way his hand was pulling on my hair and the way the other was roaming round my body was spreading heat wherever it went. He moved his hand under my shirt and moved it straight to my breast pinching it. It was so unexpected that I gasped and his talented tongue got access and entered my mouth, exploring every inch, claiming it as his once again.

His lips moved to my cheek then down my throat making me moan uncontrollably. He moved to the spot under my ear and he sucked the area biting the skin there until I’m sure it’s bruised. I know he wanted marking me with a hickey. His hand was massaging my scalp and his teeth were biting my skin, I had never felt such pleasure before, which made me to uncontrollably moan out his name. the insatiable man wasn’t done as he went back to my lips and bit them more until they were swollen. Finally, he left my lips, I breathed thankfulness and looked at him with half hooded eyes. He moved away from me and turned his back to me with his palms clenched tightly into a fist.

Nice bra he spoke mockingly before he disappeared into the changing room in the corner and that’s when I realized what he had done to me. The arrogant arse made my entire shirt wet, making it cling to my body and making my hot pink bra show. How annoying could this day go for me and this arse making it more!!
