Chapter Twenty-Nine; Signed To The Devil
I huffed, wincing slightly as my cheeks flattened against the desk. “Let me go!” I yelled, panic settling in. I immediately regretted my choice of words. Nothing good ever came from provoking him, I should have known. It was the same thing that happened when we first met.
He ignored me, shifting to lean against the desk while keeping me in place. “Since you haven’t read the contract. I’ll do you the honor of enlightening you.
“What?” Oh lord, what was he up to now?
“I’ll start with the main clauses.” He declared, and I braced myself, cold sweat trickling down my temple.
“Aurelia agrees to submit to Luke’s authority, allowing him to make decisions regarding their activities, and engaging in role-playing scenarios that emphasize his dominance and her submission.”
I yelped as his free hand landed on my rear with a firm smack. A shocked gasp escaped my lips, the sting of it sending a jolt of pain through me. He flipped my skirt, and heat exploded in my cheeks as he smacked me again. I squeezed my thighs together, chewing on my bottom lip as my core ached.
Fuck. Why was I turned on?
“Luke has the right to monitor Aurelia’s location at all times using GPS tracking on her phone and other personal devices.” The CEO’s voice was firm, and commanding, his annoyance evident in his words as he read out the terms of the contract. His hand came down on me again, and I suppressed a moan. My body betrayed me as arousal pooled between my legs despite my efforts to resist.
My breaths became erratic, heating the air as I writhed in his hold.
“Aurelia is to remain exclusively committed to Luke, with no other romantic or sexual partners. Luke retains the right to monitor Aurelia’s interactions to ensure this exclusivity.” He continued and with each word he spoke, he delivered another sharp spank, each one sending waves of conflicting sensations through me.
“All punishments for any breaches of the contract or disobedience will be determined solely by Luke.”
I moaned out loud as he smacked me harder than the last, tears gathering at the corners of my eyes as the pain mixed with pleasure, clouding my mind and sense of reasoning.
Part of me wanted to reject him, to fight back against his dominance. But another part-the part that craved his touch, his control-was tempted to surrender.
“I won’t,” I protested weakly, my voice wavering as his touch continued to ignite a fire within me. “I won’t give in.”
Luke’s hand caressed my backside, his touch sending shivers of pleasure down my spine. He leaned in close, his breath warm against my ear. “You want this, Aurelia,” he whispered, his voice low and husky. “You want to submit to me.”
His free hand slid off my rear, moving to drop a pen in front of me as he pushed the contract into my line of vision. “Sign the contract.” He ordered, leaving no room for discussion. He let go of my wrist but still kept me pinned against the desk. I hesitated, my eyes pleading as I looked up at him, but he didn’t relent. “Or you’ll live to regret it.”
His threat humbled me, and I froze in place, taking note of the malicious aura that radiated off him.
I closed my eyes, battling the storm of emotions raging inside me. His touch was intoxicating, his words stirring a desire I couldn’t deny. With a mix of frustration and longing, I reached for the pen and signed my name on the dotted line of the contract.
This was akin to signing your soul to the devil. The CEO was a devil, tempting me, pushing me against my limits, and relishing in the torture he inflicted on me. A devil. A sadist. That was what he was.
Luke’s lips curled into a satisfied smile as he took the contract from me, and freed me. I straightened up, but he didn’t give me time to catch my breath. The CEO snatched my waist possessively, pulling me close and making me stand between his legs. His lips ghosted over mine as his hand curled around my neck, supplying an amount of pressure that made me lightheaded.
I glared at him, matching his intense gaze through tear-rimmed eyes.
“You’re mine now. Get that into your thick skull.”
I wanted to speak but he cut me off by applying more pressure on my neck. I gasped for air, my lungs burning from the lack of oxygen.
His eyes darkened, and my lips trembled as he smirked in victory.
“One more thing. If I ever catch that blasted first choice of yours so much as lay a hand on your hair. I’ll make his life a living hell, then be sure to expect a nice punishment yourself.”
His words lingered in the air, heavy with promise and threat. As he released his grip, I took in a deep, shaky breath, trying to steady myself. The CEO returned to his seat, casually adjusting his tie as if nothing out of the ordinary had occurred.
I stood there, my body trembling with a mixture of fear, anger, and unwanted arousal. I hated him for what he did, for how he made me feel. Yet, deep down, it made him seem more endearing. I hated that too. Luke’s eyes never left mine, a satisfied smirk playing on his lips. “Now, Aurelia, let’s get back to work, shall we?”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
With a final, defiant glare, I turned on my heel and walked out of his office, my mind a whirlwind of emotions. The contract was signed, the terms set, and my fate sealed. But one thing was clear- I would not let him break me.
I had to be careful, to stay alert. Luke was a master manipulator, but I wouldn’t let him control me completely. I would play his game, but I would do it my way.
The CEO might have won this round, but I would find a way to turn the tables. And when I do, he would realize that he had underestimated me. ttINEI
