Bound to him since birth

9. Another Contract

Sofie's POV-

KISS?!

As in on my lips?! No way Christian is going to do that! I remember how he kissed me on our wedding day, that was yesterday. Not so long ago! And at that time, he just chewed my lower lip once and then he let go. But the sensation that small kiss gave... it still makes my body tremble. 

I look at Christian to study his emotions, but he has none, he has put on an expressionless face.

"Mr Hall, I guess it's enough for now. You see, my daughter in law is a little shy so, I'm sure she won't feel that comfortable. Maybe we could take that pose some other time." Mom says saving us with a good excuse. 

"Well, okay. But I hope you'll get comfortable soon because I know you both will rock this pose! Every other picture that I've captured are so good!" Mr Hall exclaims happily and I just smile at him.

We all get inside after all of us select the best pics to get them ready. Mom has asked to frame the few photos as a memory that she'll decorate the wall with. We all sit in the living room and I sit beside my father.

"Mom, Dad, I have to go back to New York soon. A lot of work is pending and I'll.., I mean ..we'll have to leave tonight." Christian says. I look at my dad and he just gives me an assuring smile. 

"Um.. okay. But it would've been nice if you stayed a little longer." Mom says gazing at Christian with soft eyes.

"I can't. There is a lot of work that needs my attention." He says clearly refusing mom's request.

Humph! Bloody heartless man!

Mom looks down and composes herself before turning to me, "I know you haven't spent much time with Christian, but don't worry, you two will get along well and also now that Brian is your good friend, he'll be there to entertain you too." She says. Yeah, of course, Brian will be there too and I think that is the only good thing about us going there. Christian and Brian handle their company from New York, its headquarters are there, so, I as his wife have to be there and live with him in New York.

"Yeah! I'll be there and will try to visit you often!" Brian says. Wait? They don't live together? So, that means that Brian isn't going to live with us?

Great! This is what you call real bad luck! How am I gonna handle this man all alone?!

"...Hello, mam." The captain greets me after greeting Christian and Brian. We are here, ready to start our journey to New York in Christian's private jet. We bid goodbye to our family a little while ago and the farewell made my eyes teary. I remember my conversation with my dad before we left and he said, "Don't let small arguments get in your relationship Soff. Try to mend them and make this relationship work so that you can be happy with your husband. And I know you'll take good care of your husband too. After all, you are my daughter, huh. You have always made me proud and I'm sure you'll continue to do so." 

We get inside the jet and because of all the fun activities I did before, I am now tired. We already had dinner with our family but I didn't eat much as I wasn't really hungry. And I guess, I can control myself till the morning.

"Soff, I guess you are tired. You seem sleepy too. Why don't you just go and rest in your room?" Brian says. He is such a caring person, unlike his BROTHER. But, my room?

"Yeah, I would like that," I say and Christian, who has been working on his MacBook up till now, gets up and makes his way to me.

"Follow me. I'll show you the way." He says looking me in the eyes and without sparing me any other glance, he starts moving. I don't know what is wrong with this man. We are a married couple now and he doesn't even talk to me. I still feel like we haven't married and he is just a stranger. But nonetheless, I follow him. I'm too sleepy to argue with him right now.

We enter the room and, "Don't mess with anything here. Just go and sleep tight on the bed." He orders and moves out. 

Humph! Arrogant homo sapien!

I don't change my clothes and sleep in my jeans and top only cause the time we'll take in reaching New York isn't much and so I'll have to get up soon.

I twist and turn again and again before I finally open my eyes. Whoa!.. Hold up... Wait a minute.

This isn't the same room in which I slept. I slept in a room that had golden colour as an influence but here it's all grey. f**k! Where am I?

I slowly get up and realize that I'm in the same clothes as before. I move towards the door that I think is the way to get out of this room and BINGO! It IS the way.

I move and through the small corridor, I make my way outside, or probably somewhere even deeper since I don't know the way around here. Where am I?!

"Mhmm... Mhmm... Ahh..." I hear someone moaning. 

Fuck! I am kidnapped and the kidnapper is now making out with some slut!    

Oh c'mon Sofie, don't think negative! Who would think of kidnapping Christian Miller's wife?!

I move further and there I see something that hurt me deeply. I don't know why but it still does. There I see Christian, ...my husband under some blonde who is straddling him on the sofa. They both are kissing each other and his hands are roaming on her back. Both of them side view is visible to me and so, I can clearly tell how intimate they are being right now.

I try to drift my eyes but I can not. The only things that change are that my eyes are filled with tears now and Christian's hands are squeezing her breasts. I finally turn my head from them and move to another side as I spot the kitchen there. His place is really spacious and so everything can be clearly spotted. Though it's more like a bachelor's pad, that's what he was, right? Yeah, but he is married now! So, I'm not gonna live in here with him! 

I make my way to the kitchen, wiping the tears that betrayed me and slid down my cheeks. I came here for water, so let's drink that and return back. I open the fridge and after taking out one bottle, I search for the glass. But to my bad luck, the glass drops from my hand and shatters into pieces. It makes a loud noise and soon enough, Christian is there standing with that blonde behind him. 

"Is that your wife?" The b***h asks him.

"Yes... What are you doing here Sofie?" He asks me. 

"Well, I was thirsty so decided why not have some transparent liquid s**t to quench my thirst!" I snap. 

"Well, now that you are finally awake, let's discuss the rules now itself. As I already told you that I've married you just because of that contract and you are not to interfere in my life, I've prepared another contract which has some similar rules and you'll have to sign that." He says and turns to leave.

So now there is going to be another contract?!

And what about not interfering in his life? I was okay with that first, but now knowing that he is going to bring his sluts home, how do you actually expect me to mind this s**t?!

With rage coursing through my whole body, I move towards the living room, ready to put up a fight.
