More Than Lust

53) Dead!

Grace's pov

My eyes widened as I saw the news.

Leena is dead! How?

'Breaking news' Flashed in bold letters on screen.

'The famous business personality, miss Leena James has been found dead near carnatic park... Cops

suspect it as a suicide but it's still unclear. Leena was engaged to Famous business tycoon Dominick

Moretti but the couple separated their ways peacefully one week ago. Her doctors informed

investigators that she was in depression since then and was on heavy drugs. Postmortem reports says

that she was drunk while driving which leads to accident, results in her on the spot death.'

Seperated their ways 'peacefully' what nonsense. I don't believe in this news. Leena will never

separate her ways with chief because she was literally obsessed over him.

He killed her!

I looked at him shocked. He killed his fiance. I was wondering how Leena let him marry me so easily.

"Y_You did it!"

I looked at him.

He Smirked and walked towards me.

"What do you think?"

He asked while caging me against the wall.

His fresh scent invaded my senses.

"Why did you kill her?"

I asked. Why is it so easy for him to kill people.

He touched my forehead where I have bruise because of that night. It healing slowly.

"She dared to hurt you... I can't tolerate it. She deserved it."

"I wasn't sure. I didn't Heard them saying her name, it was just an assumption."

I replied shocked.

"You think i kill people on assumptions?... Sweetheart, I have solid proofs... She was going to sell you

but then she realised that I can find you within snap of my fingers that's why she ordered them to kill

you."

He stated.

"And who is responsible for that"

I spat. May be i am crossing my limits since yesterday but enough is enough. This man is living in his

own world and thinks that everything revolves around him, till now i tried to stay silent but not now. If i

am living with him then I am not going to hold back.

He can gladly punish me if he wants to.

"Me!... I should have been careful"

He accepted without hesitation.

What's wrong with him. This is not the man i know. Why he isn't punishing me for talking back. Since

when he became tolerant towards disrespect.

"Why did you marry me?"

I still haven't got my answer. Why me?

"You will get your answers... Be patient"

He replied while placing his neck in Crook of my neck. I gulped when his hot breath lingered on my wet

skin.

I pulled my head back and he looked at me offended but didn't say anything. I am not going to co-

operate with him anymore. I did it for last four months because of contract but not now. If i continued to

do it then I'll have to do it for rest of my life and I don't want that.

"What did I say yesterday?"

He asked sternly. I know he is speaking about pulling back. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"I am not your whore anymore... I am your wife now and you have to respect my consent. I won't let

you treat me like that anymore"

I put on brave facade but i still don't trust this man with my safety. He can hurt me.

To my surprise, he smiled.

"Yes you are my wife."

There was glow in his eyes and happiness in voice.

He is scaring me with his changed attitude. I gulped and walked towards the closest. I don't know what

he has done to my stuff.

I opened the closest door and my mouth literally dropped on the floor. No way!

One side of closet is arranged with Designer dresses, bags, shoes, makeup and what not. Is this mine?

No! I don't think so.

"It's yours"

I turned around when he said that. He was Smirking leaning against the door.

"Why?"

I frowned.

"Because you are my wife. You will need all these things."

He shrugged and went to his side of closet.

"Tell me if you want anything else."

Ofcourse he cares about his reputation. How will Dominick moretti's wife will look in old shabby clothes.

But these dresses are to beautiful to wear and i don't even want to imagine prices.

He grabbed the pink knee length dress and handed me.

"Pink suits you."

I want to throw it at his face but i shouldn't try his limits. I don't want to die yet. I have to find way out of

this.

He walked out giving me privacy. Something is fishy about his behavior.

I grabbed the lingerie and got ready. I have to find out why he married me, it's so unusual. I don't think

common girl like me should matter to him like this.

I want to meet my father too. I don't know how is he doing. Rafael lied to me, he was definitely planning

something. Bastard. What was he going to do with me?

I stomach churned with the thought. Should I tell chief about him. He will definitely punish him afterall

he was betraying him. If Rafael is still out there then it's dangerous for me.

But why I think about chief whenever I am in problem, he is my biggest problem. But he has saved me

from everyone.

I walked out and his eyes snapped towards me. He looked at me up and down and satisfaction flashed

on his face.

Should I tell him about Rafael? May be i should, what if he tries something like Leena. He already tried

to do it yesterday.

"Rafael___ he___"

I tried but he looked at me with clenched jaw making me gulp. His good mood suddenly turned into

angry one.
