Julianna’s Pov:-
My breathing was unstable and all I could feel was dizziness because of the intense kiss. I pressed my back to the closed door and leaned my head back. What’s happening to me? Why am I liking it?
As I slowly got my senses back, a gasp left my lips.
Oh my god!
What have I done?
I kissed him back!
Stupid Julia! How could I kiss him back and fucking enjoy it?
Jesus Christ.
The whole day, I kept cursing myself for what I did. I didn’t have the courage to face Nikolai, I did my best to avoid him as much as possible. I always thought to save my every first until I meet my soulmate, to someone I love but I gave my first kiss to him, I don’t love him, I fucking hate him but oddly I don’t regret it as It was intense and breathtaking.
Never in my entire life, I thought I could hate someone as much as I hate him but I lost my first kiss to him and it infuriated me. I wish I controlled myself and pushed him away but I was so lost in the kiss that I couldn’t do that.
A sudden knock on the door made me flinch and snap out of my thoughts. I glanced at the digital clock and it showed 10:00 pm. Who might that be? There was another knock on the door, so I quickly sat up. I don’t know who I was expecting but my heart began to pound in my chest.
I took slow steps towards the door, anticipating who it might be and there was another knock. My heart was pounding louder for passing seconds, as my hands reached the door and I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
Calm down, Julia!
I kept repeating inside my head and quickly pulled the door open, “Yes?” I said as soon as I opened the door. My eyes landed on Penelope who stared at me in confusion and with a questioning look.
“Um… Nothing, I just wanted to talk… Are you okay?” she asked,
“Yes, absolutely… come in,” I said while stepping aside and letting her in. I glanced outside before closing the door and I don’t know why I did that.
“I couldn’t sleep….” she sighed while sitting on the edge of my bed.
“Same here, I couldn’t sleep too,” I sighed while walking over to her.
“Let’s watch anything on Netflix,” she said walking over to the sitting area.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Okay, I replied and followed her behind,
We watched some good Netflix series all night and ended up sleeping on the couch.

“I never guessed that would happen, it’s really a mind-blowing twist…” Penelope said,
“Totally agree, ” I replied while glancing at her.
We are standing in the kitchen cooking breakfast, Flora told us to cook breakfast since she had some other work to do. We carried the dishes to the dining table, as I placed those dishes down and turned around my eyes landed on Nikolai, who was walking down the stairs while his long fingers were furiously typing something on the phone.
His expression was serious, I gulped hard and immediately lowered my head. My heart began to race inside my chest as I walked past him, towards the kitchen. I quickly rushed inside the kitchen and leaned my back on the kitchen counter.
“Calm down, Julia,” I said to myself while taking deep breaths,
Goddammit!
I tried to calm myself and walked back to the dining table, I saw Nikolai checking his phone and Penelope serving him breakfast. I calmly tried my best to not gain his attention and walked straight to the dining table.
As soon as I walked closer to the dining table, he placed his phone down and my heart began to beat rapidly against my chest. As I pulled the chair out, his eyes moved to mine and I felt sudden panic surging inside me.
I sat down and tried my best to avoid eye contact at any cost but I could feel his eyes following my every move like a hawk and it made me feel extremely bothered. I kept my eyes on my food and tried to keep myself occupied.
The air around us was heavy and the tension was high, there was complete silence and it was awkward. I ate my breakfast like someone who had been starving for days. I wanted to get away from his eyes as soon as possible.
I glanced at him before getting up and taking my plate to the sink, our eyes met and I quickly looked away.
A whole week went by, I kept avoiding any kind of contact with him and he did the same. Penelope and Flora did notice this and kept throwing tons of questions at me but I kept telling them that they’re just overthinking and everything is fine.
I tried not to think about Nikolai and what we did but it keeps rushing back to my mind, I couldn’t sleep at night because I keep getting wet dreams about him and it’s bothering me. I shouldn’t feel all these, this is wrong, he’s my captor.
I quickly got up and sighed. I think I should just watch Netflix all night to avoid them. I got down from my bed and walked over to the sitting area. I should bring something to eat while watching t. v or else I will for sure end up sleeping again and I don’t want to have those dreams again.
I walked out of my room to find something to eat in the kitchen. The hallway was dark and the mansion was surrounded by pin-drop silence, I could feel a cool breeze hitting me as I climbed down the stairs.
I began humming the song “Me!” by Taylor Swift while strolling into the kitchen, preparing popcorn. I was so into the song that my body began to move, I quickly took a bowl while dancing and filled it with popcorn. I moved to the fridge and took a water bottle, as I was about to turn I heard something.
My legs stopped moving in mid and every muscle in my body paused, What was that?

Fuck! What’s that?
My heart was racing in my chest and all of a sudden, someone grabbed my arm and twisted it back. I hissed in pain and before I could scream a huge palm covered my mouth, I struggled to move as the grip was strong.
I tried to look at the person holding me but I couldn’t, “Don’t move!” a husky deep move hit my ears, making the hair on the back of my neck rise up. My heart jumped in panic and my entire body was shaking.
“Who are you?” I hear him asking, I feel this voice familiar but my panicked state was making it hard for me.
I tried to scream at him to leave me but my screams came out muffled, “Don’t scream or else I’ll kill you,” he said while slowly moving his palm. I was terrified, he gripped my arms and turned me around.
What the hell!
“Mr. Vasiliev?” I gasped as my eyes landed on his face, he was surprised to see me there as well.
“What the hell are you doing here at this time? Miss. Mitchell?” He almost yelled at me,
“I-I cam-came…. Pop-Popcorn..” I stuttered while pointing at the bowl like a kid,
His eyes glared at me and a frown appeared on his handsome face, our bodies were still too close to my liking and the heat from his body was causing me to feel extremely hot. I quickly tried to step back from him.
“I-I’m so-sorry…. ah!” I tried to get away from him in a rush, I tripped and fell on him. We both ended up falling on the floor with a loud bang, my head hit his chest and I felt his manhood under my belly.
We fell silent and the only sound was our breathing. I was damn scared to move a muscle but I mustered up some courage and pressed my palms on the floor. I tried to slowly get up but I felt a sting pain in my knee. I hissed in discomfort while pushing my hair behind my ear.
I suddenly felt his piercing gaze on my face and I felt my breathing stop, our faces were so close to each other. I could feel his hot breath hitting my face, his eyes moving gradually to my lips and I noticed them turning a darker shade of blue which strangely excited me.
Suddenly he slammed his lips against mine, knocking the air off my lungs, he wrapped his hands around my waist and kissed me like an addict.
Holy shit!
Why did I get out of my room in the first place!
