A Must
A Must
RAYNE’S POV
I got home earlier and before Eric arrived.
I gave one of the maids the things I bought so she could arrange them.
I walked straight to Eric’s study room and started searching for any clue of who he really is.
I kept going through torns of files searching up if I could see any of his past life.
“God damnit.” I exclaimed outta frustration as I couldn’t get what I was looking for.
I walked over to his study table and started going through some books there.
All of these are old fucking stuff, I kept going through the books. I flipped the pages over and over and over .
Just when I was tired and decided to give up. I dropped the book on the table roughly and it fell on the floor.
A picture came sliding out of the book.
I picked it up and turned it around to see what it was.
It was a picture of Bianca and Eric. The smile on his face was so genuine I haven’t seen him smile like that at all.
“About Eric, tell him I really missed him.” Bianca’s words came as a replay in my head.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
“What did she mean by that?” I asked no one in particular.
Everything started becoming clear to me.
“Could it be that Bianca was his secret lover?” my subconscious mind asked.
“No it can’t be.” I said.
Maybe I’m just over reacting, I mean she’s a family friend. They must have taken this picture on a family occasion.
I heard footsteps approaching and I hid the photograph in my handbag quickly.
I quickly put the books back in order and just as I was about leaving. I turned around and Eric was standing right behind me. his face expressionless as always.
“H… hi.” I stammered.
“What are you doing here?” he asked me, taking a step closer to me.
My hands started sweating all of a sudden. Damn this dude was making me nervous with his stares.
I moved back a little.
“I was just passing by, so I decided to check out your study room. nice study room.” I replied, swallowing my nervousness and being bold.
He smirked at my response. my heart melted immediately he smirked.
How can a human be so God-damned handsome and seductive. His every move was a killer.
His smile was a turn on, his grin was seductive. His body movement was extraordinary.
OMG he’s so heavenly made.
I was lost in my thoughts about how seductive he looks and didn’t notice he was now standing close to me.
“Why is your heart beating fast?” he asked calmly, jolting me back to reality.
“Wha…. what, what do you mean?” I asked nervously.
“Are you nervous?” he asked, looking me straight in the eyes.
“No I’m not.” I said shutting my eyes not wanting to fall for his charismatic looks.
I moved back away from him.
“You’re scared?” he asked as he came closer.
“No I’m not.” I said moving backwards.
“Then how do you explain your heart beating so abnormally fast.” he said, his smirk not leaving his lips.
I stared blankly into his eyes without saying anything.
“Do I make your heart beat so fast?” he asked as he leaned on to me.
“Nooo.” I said and tried to push him away from me. He held my hand and drew me closer to himself as he held my waist tightly. but not so tight as to hurt me.
“You genuinely love me Rayne.” he said, staring into my eyes.
Why do I feel angry all of a sudden. Does this means he didn’t believe me all through.
I gulped down saliva and said nothing.
He pushed me more closer to him this time so close I could feel his hot breath on my face and his lips so close to mine.
“I’m your husband, don’t be scared to love me.” he said.
“I do love you.” I found myself saying.
I wasn’t planning on saying that, guess my emotions got the best of me.
Just then the image of him and Bianca together came in and my mood changed. I adjusted myself away from him.
My anger was arising and I was battling with the thought of asking him or not.
“Do not ask him, it must be a family occasion photo, it has no meaning.” my subconscious said.
“What’s wrong?” he asked calmly
“Nothing, my shoes hurt a lot. I should probably go get them off now.” I lied and was about walking out but then his next sentence made me stop in my tracks.
“If you really wanna go on a girls trip, you should go. I’m sorry for trying to stop you the other time.” he said.
I stopped in my tracks for a few seconds and then turned around. He said sorry, that’s strange.
“What are you saying?” I asked. just to confirm if I had heard right.
“You heard me Rayne, don’t play with me.” he said.
“No I’m just asking because I planned to go without your permission, but now I have your permission thanks anyways.” I said with a smile.
“Do you need me to help you with anything?” he asked.
“No I’ll take it from here Eric, and please quit being so nice to me it doesn’t suit you.” I said and walked out.
I tried to hide that pain and feeling but it kept kicking in.
Was this jealousy? I’m getting jealous over a mere photo with no legit meaning.
I sighed as I walked up to my room, this whole new feeling is driving me crazy.
I got into my room and sat on the bed to take off my shoes.
I was so tired the whole day was so stressful. I took my clothes off and prepared a warm bath for myself. I got into the bathtub and buried myself in the warm water to calm my raging nerves down.
Slowly slowly my ragging feeling was gone and I couldn’t feel a bit of it. I stayed in the water for some minutes before getting out and wrapped myself up with a towel.
My phone beeped but I wasn’t gonna check who it was now I wanted to dry my hair first.
I plugged the dryer and started drying my hair. I wore my pajamas and jumped on the bed.
I picked up my phone to check who texted and to my surprise it was a text message from Sarah.
“I could tell you everything you need to know about Bianca and Eric.”
What does she mean by that?
