Billionaire's Bride

It was our wedding night, but unlike most newly wedded brides, i was not looking forward to this night at all. In fact i dreaded this night.

I stood looking out the floor to the ceiling window dreading this moment. I wished this night would just be over and done with. I leaned sideways against the glass panel with my arms crossed in the dark. I didn't want the glares from the lights to prevent me from enjoying the beautiful night scenes outside the penthouse. Darkness was the only thing giving me any sense of calmness right now.

Today I was forced to marry a guy i absolutely abhorred, Alex smith. He represented everything i hated, a player, a womanizer, a layout andvprobably a cheater too.

He was what people would call the idle rich. He probably never worked a day in his entire life and he spent his father's money to cover his expensive lavish lifestyle while chasing after women. Atleast that's how i would describe my newly wedded husband.

I frowned as i wondered if he would force me tonight to share his bed tonight.

I was not ready to sleep in the same bed as this man. I honestly don't think i will ever be ready

The sound of the door handle turning brought me out of my thoughts. I moved away from the window and turned to see the invader knowing fully well it was Alex Smith my husband.

"So you have been hiding in here Maya ?" his voice was playful and seductive. He flipped on the light switch and smirked as he walked confidently towards me. “Or were you waiting for me?” he asked laughing

He was wearing the same suit i had seen him in earlier this morning. As much as i hated his arrogant egotistical demeanor, i hated how my body was responsding to him more. My brain told me to despise him but my body was doing the exact opposite. My heart started beating faster and my insides started doing flips as he got closer.

While i stared at him, i grudgingly admitted that he must be the most handsome man i have ever met. His beautiful caramel eyes with specks of green and a hint of mischief connected with my eyes.

He stopped a few steps away and i couldn't help but gaze at his beautiful lips, a devilish smile on his face.

I made myself look away, "we are officially married on paper, there's no need for you to be here right now" i said with finality even though i was trembling inside. I hoped he would leave me alone tonight, as for tomorrow i will worry about that then.

"That's where you are wrong" his husky voice sounded closer as he took a few more steps. "You owe me an heir" he bent down and whispered in my ears, his hot breath sending shivers down my body.

My head snapped back to look up at him. He seemed amused and unfazed, one corner of his mouth lifted up.

"That wasn't in the contract" i spart out with less venom than i had hoped.

"Oh, i guarantee you it is." he got closer and forced me back against the glass window. "But i will explain that later because right now we will be doing other important things"

I try to remember if i saw anything like that on the contract. I remember i read ot more than three times, it did not mention an heir.

I tried to move away, but he reached out amd flattened both of his palms against the glass, imprisoning me between his hands. "Where do you think you are going?" he asked enticingly

"I.. I... You" I couldn't think straight with him standing so close to me, hovering over me like a predator playing with its prey before the kill.

One of his hands moved away from the glass, captured my chin and lifted it so our eyes would meet. The eyes staring back at me were a foot above mine and they reflected the beautiful city lights behind me. "You what?" his lips curved. He was having fun with this game he was playing

I Jerked my head out of his grasp because my chin was being burnt by his touch.

He chuckled, hearing this simple sound made my heart skip a beat. I was getting annoyed that i couldn't control even my own body.

With his one hand still planted on the window, he suddenly grabbed my waist with the other hand that was holding my chin.

My hands instinctively flew to his chest to push him away"What do you think you are doing?"his lips crushed on mine before i could finish what i was saying.

As i pushed harder against his hard chest, his arm tightened more around my waist, while the other one moved to hold the base of my head.

His lips were soft and he kissed me with urgency, my body pathetically gave in to the fight. I could feel him smile with satisfaction against my lips, before he went back to kissing me.

He took his time on my bottom lip, sucking, pulling and gently biting before moving to my upper lip. My mouth slightly parted amd he bent his head to kiss me deeper.

Even though I was inexperienced, my hands moved up his chest and wrapped around his neck. I moaned softly. I never knew kissing could feel so good. I was a virgin so i have never done any of this before.

I would be extremely embarrassed at the sound i just made if i weren't so intoxicated. My body seemed to want more as my arms pulled tighter and i stood on tiptoes to get closer to him if that were possible.

He chuckled against my lips and suddenly pulled back.

My brows furrowed as i slowly opened my eyes. He laughed at my dissapointed look. With his arms still around my waist, and mibe now on his chest, he said smugly "if i can't make you fall in love with me after one month, i will give you a divorce without penalizing you for breaking the contract"

I pushed his arms away and he let them drop to his side without resistance. "what about my father's company" i asked full of sorrow.

Our marriage contract stipulated that he would help my father's company from going bankrupt. It also specified that he would not cheat on me or have any inappropriate relations with other women. The second condition applied to me as well, not that i would ever cheat on him.

"I will still help him even if we are divorced" he said sincerely and i believed him.

His offer sounded good, if we divorced he would still help my father, that was the reason we got married for in the first place.

He was overconfident in his proposal, i was sure i was going to win this bet and then i would be free of him.

"Deal" i happily stuck out my hand, and he took it while smiling cockly

"Goodnight wife" he said sultry as he walked out of the room with the same confidence came in with.

There was no way in hell i would fall for a self centered play boy.

Whether i fell for him or not, it would still be a win win situation so i got nothing to lose. But i was not going to fall in love with this smug man, i was determined to finish my contract and later on get married to my true love, find real love. I still believe in fairy tales and Alex smith was not going to stop me.
