Blake POV
It was going to be hard for her and for me but I have to do this.
"I am your kidnapper and know your limits! I can harm you if you defy me and don't try to do anything, Desdemona.I won't be very nice." I said.
"Blake." She gasped.I didn't have the strength to look into her eyes.I stormed out of her room and walked towards mine.
What did I do? I was supposed to take care of her.I promised Joseph that I would take care of his daughter as long as he is sending me money.
Desdemona was really precious.She was one in a million.Everyone loved her.Everyone wanted her.
A man like me was the chase of every woman but I have never took a glance towards any one of them until now.
Now I was trying to control my desire,my lust and my yearning for her.
Her body.
Her precious flower.
Her everything.
I didn't want to see her sad.She was only a little girl.She was a naughty kitten but she was innocent too.

I sipped onto my coffee waiting for Des to come out.It was half past ten and she wasn't still up.I sighed.She was hurt and angry.
I didn't know whether I should knock on her door or not.
I didn't know what to do.
I waited for her.She came out in the dining room, looking like she didn't sleep the night.
I frowned and continued reading the newspaper.I had to act strict in front of her since she is already hard to control.She sat down quietly and ate her breakfast.
I didn't like the silence.Last morning,she was clinging onto me.I ruined it all.
"Are you okay?" I asked after a long silence.I wanted to ask this before but the words couldn't come out of my throat.
"I am." She replied without making any eye contact.
"If you need anything, tell me.I talked with Joseph this morning and he said you like to spend your Sundays far away from everyone." I said.
"He did? I want to talk to him." She stood up.
"No." I said.She immediately sat down and continued eating her food.
"Des."
"Desdemona."
"I don't want to hurt them or you so please try to understand." I said and sat beside her.
"Desdemona,please talk to me.I need to understand your feelings to keep you safe...and happy." I said.The last word almost came out as a whisper.
"Please leave me alone." She whispered in a heartening tone.
"Des..." I whispered as I put my hand on hers.
"I have a beach house,where no one else is there.Do you want to go?" I asked.
"I don't want to go anywhere with you." She whispered.
"It's alright.I can take you.If we talk, everything will be fine." I smiled.
"I don't want to go.You only said that you were my kidnapper and I must know my limits.Then,why are you pushing me to create memories with you?" She stormed out.
"Here." I said.
"What?" She rolled her eyes.That attitude.That goddamn attitude wanted me to tie her to my bed forever.
"Talk to your father." I said as I handed her the phone.
Edith POV
I snatched the phone from his hand and called my dad.
He picked up within the first couple of rings.
"Hello,Blake?" He said.
"No,dad.It's me.Edith." I said.
"Edith? My sweetheart.Where have you been? I know and I am so sorry.I promise that I will try to collect the money and send it to him.You stay safe and I promise you,he will not hurt you." He said.
"Dad, it's alright.Take your time.I am fine with everything." I said.
"How? A million and a half is a lot of money to collect within 4 months." He said.
"What? That is a huge amount.How will you...ever manage?" I breathed out as I looked at Blake.
Dangerous and kind at the same time.
"What if you can't repay him within 4 months?" I asked.
"He will kill you and then me." Dad replied.I licked my lips.
"I love you,dad." I whispered.
"I love you too sweetheart." He said.The line went flat and I handed him the phone.
"You know,Blake,a million dollars is nothing for you but a lot of money for us.With dad's retirement and me being here, unemployed,even in 20 years we won't be able to pay you back and you very well know that.If you want to kill us,you should've done that the moment you saw me.What's the point of wasting time?" I asked as I crossed my arms over my chest.
"You think that of me?" He asked.
"What else do you expect me to think? You gave us 4 months to arrange a million and a half dollars or else you said yourself that you will kill us." I sighed.
"I gave him 5 years time." He said.
"He was retired since then.He is a heart patient who is dying.My mother has cancer! We need money to live and how heartless can you be?" I gasped as I turned around.
"He is not a good man,Des." He said.
"So what? He is my father!" I replied.He put his hands on my shoulder from behind.
"Promises are meant to be kept.Duties are meant to be fulfilled." He whispered.
"That's why you will kill him?" I asked.
"You don't know how the world is,Des.You aren't scared of the reality.What if I wasn't this kind? That night,my men might have assaulted you and I could've enjoyed that but I didn't because I respect women and I have respect for your father as well." He said.
"You were lucky that it was me or else no one would've been this merciful." He said.
"And I need you to know that..." He whispered in my neck,"I would never...ever hurt you."
His voice was deep, sending me shivers down my spine.
"You would never hurt me?" I asked as I looked into his eyes.He shook his head and revealed a devious smirk.
"Why?" I asked.
"You will know." He said.
"Now..." He breathed out,"Do you want to go to the beach house? You need it."
"Oh...yeah,sure." I replied.
"I am sorry for behaving like that." He said.Oh? Did he think that I was going to forgive him this easily?
I rolled my eyes and walked away.
"Des,where are you going?" He asked.
"To my room." I replied.He grabbed my wrists and pulled me.I bumped on his rock hard chest.
I looked into his eyes and licked my lips.I leaned forward to his lips but he lifted his head.
"There is a line we cannot cross." He whispered.I smirked and bit my lips.
"Go get ready!" He laughed as I slipped through his arms.
Blake POV
I couldn't help myself.I kept on telling myself that there is a boundary between us and right now,I was not available for lust or else why would I reject that body?
I wore a brown windbreaker and brushed my hair, waiting for her.Women always take time to get ready.
Her door clicked and she came out looking hot as hell.I narrow down my gaze to the ground and cleared my throat.
"Anything wrong?" She asked knowing what exactly was wrong.
"No and what are you wearing?" I asked.
"Do I look bad?" She asked as she sat beside me.She wasn't looking bad.She looked heaven sent.She looked breathtakingly beautiful.
She was wearing a white sleeveless sundress which reached upto her thighs.
She revealed her flawless skin and her perfect curves.
I didn't even have words to explain how she looked.I wish I could grab her throat and devour her red, plumped and perfectly kissable lips
She was just divine.
"No, you don't.The dress is just too revealing." I said without making any eye contact.
"Oh,but you told me no one would be there." She replied.
"What about the driver? He will see you or the people on the roads." I said.
"No one will see me." She laughed and moved even closer to me.
"No one." She whispered and placed her hand on my thigh.
"Let's go." I said and immediately stood up.
We walked towards the car.She wrapped her hands around mine.Somehow,it felt special.
We sat inside the car.Instead of sitting on her seat,she clung to my arms and rested her head on my shoulder.
"Sleepy?" I whispered.She let out a small chuckle with her eyes closed.
"How about a change of plan?" I asked.
"What?" She asked.
"Let's go my island.It also has a beach there.We can stay there if you like." I said.
"You have an island? And here you are asking for a million from my dad." She sighed.
"You rich people are always wanting more." She said.
"It's about punishment not money." I thickened my voice.
"He is already a dead man.You are heartless." She rolled her eyes.
"I know! You don't have to remind me that." I looked outside the window.
"You know,you can talk normally instead of being like this and why are you so gloomy all the time?" She asked.
"I am not gloomy." I replied.
"Denying that you are not makes you an arse." She laughed.
"I am not a-What is your deal? You are a-" I stopped myself.
"I am a?" She asked as she leaned closer to me.
"Nothing." I replied.
"You are an arse.You didn't even tell me how I look.You don't even know how to treat a woman." She said.
"Do I have to say how you look?" I asked.
"Yes,of course." She scoffed.
"You look breathtakingly beautiful." I whispered.She smiled.
"Not acceptable." She said.I loved how talkative she was and how open minded she was.
"Why not?" I asked.
"Because I asked for the compliment.You didn't compliment me from your heart." She raised and eyebrow.
"I did." I replied.
"Liar." She winked.
"I don't lie and I would never lie to you." I said.
"You're cute." She laughed.She was the one who was cute.I looked at the rear view mirror and saw that my driver had his eyes on Edith.
Anger fumed inside me.I clenched my fists to control the anger.My main driver was out of town for the time being.This temporary workers were the worst and no one can lay eyes on what's mine.
Mine?
"What happened?" Her warm hands wrapped around my cold ones.Her hot palm melted by cold heart without even trying.
"Wear this." I said as I opened my windbreaker and gave it to her.
"I am not feeling cold." She said.
"Wear this,please." I said.Why couldn't she just simply follow orders?
She looked at me with puppy eyes.I looked at the rear view mirror again.He was still looking.When he saw me,he immediately shifted his gaze to the road.This is it.He will die.
I didn't know what to do.She was being adamant and stubborn.
"What's wrong?" She asked and rolled her eyes again.
"Desdemona!" I said.It was very soft and very concerning.She flinched and moved away from me.She was so damn stubborn.How was I supposed to deal with this girl?
"You get the hell out of here." I said to the driver.
"Sir?" He acted like I haven't seen anything.
"I am coming for you so run as far as you can." I said.He flinched and ran out of the car.
I got out and sat on the driving seat.
I grabbed my phone and called my personal assistant.
"Kane? Who was the temporary driver you got me?" I asked.
"Sir,it was George Woodman." He said.
"Make sure you teach him a lesson.He was checking out my woman in my car." I said.
"Affirmative." He said.
I kept my phone and headed towards my apartment.My jet was supposed to arrive there.
"I am sorry,Des." I whispered.My left hand went back and touched her bare legs.
Flawless.
"I am sorry.I didn't know that he was checking me out.I was being stubborn." She said.Finally,she is getting some resources inside her brain.
Suddenly,she came to the front seat.
"What are you doing?" I asked.At first,I thought she would simply seat on the shotgun but she sat on my lap.She rested her head on my chest and exhaled sweetly.
I've never known this feeling.Driving on an empty highway on high speed with a beautiful woman in your chest.
It was just too good to be true.
"Wake me up when we reach." She yawned.
"Don't you sleep at night?" I asked.
"I can't." She replied.
"Why?" I asked.
"Secret." She giggled in my chest.I laughed.Was she an angel?
"Sleep now." I whispered.
