Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 172

172 Bad Rex (2)

Rex raised her jaw with his fingers and made her stare into his eyes. “You are five years older than me, agreed. But you aren’t taller than me. You are my brother’s best friend, agreed, but he wants me to marry you. You see me as a junior brother, false. I see you as my woman and I’m certain you see me as a man too, else you won’t shy away from my d!ck.

“You-” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Allow me to finish.” He leaned closer to her ear and whispered. “My age might be small but my dick isn’t. I can get you pregnant within a few seconds…”

Celestine pushed him away. She was feeling embarrassed right now. Rex was a Casanova with a sugar–coated tongue. He had never failed in seducing a lady he set his eyes on. Even though he doesn’t sleep with them, kiss them, or touch them, he could make them dripping wet and stimulated both mentally and physically with his words alone.

“You are insane,” she tried to hide her embarrassment.

“Only for you.” He responded and before Celeste could open her mouth, he swept her off the floor and strode to the bed before throwing her in.

Celestine bounced up and screamed. Everything escalated too quickly for her to react. “This boy is going crazy!‘ She thought.

“Rex, stay right there, don’t… don’t…” her voice went off when he threw his robe off his shoulders with his ‘little something standing erect. (2)

“Rex! Cover up right now!” Celestine was genuinely scared. Not for anything else but for herself and what Rex was doing to her body right now.

She needed him too!

But how could she have such a relationship with Rex? It’s not right, to her.

“You want me too, don’t you?” He got on the bed with his knees, crawling towards her.

“This is not right, stop it!” Celestine was frustrated. She wanted to leave but the door was locked. “Rex, listen, calm down, let’s talk things through.”

Rex curled his lips, “do you accept me now?”

“I’m- I’m pregnant.” She announced.

“Hahahahaha… Celeste, do you take me for a fool? You really do see me as a baby, don’t you? That weakling told me you didn’t allow him to touch you. Your marriage was a business deal. He got the fame he wanted and you got to deceive me for a year.”

She could have succeeded if not for Maverick who forced her husband to ruin the marriage and take the blame.

Seeing she had grown silent, Rex sighed. “Fine, I’ll keep our relationship a secret. I promise,” he caressed her cheek and leaned in to kiss her.

Celestine knew too well to not trust him but she still allowed herself to embrace the desire that had

been drumming against her senses.

Rex had vowed to make her scream his name and beg him to stop, that was why, under the canopy of darkness, he proved to Celestine that he might be five years younger than her in age, but his experience in bed was older than her.

His name and tonight will be the only things Celestine would remember for a long time. He will brand her and make sure that even if she left him again for another man, she won’t be able to stay with him.

The next morning, Celestine woke up to see her naked body lying on Rex’s bed. Remembering what she had done, she burst into uncontrollable tears. She tried to stop it, God knows that she did but she couldn’t help it when he kept seducing her. His charm was way beyond her.

“Rex, what did you make me do?” Her hands flew to her face as she cried in shame. How would they look at themselves from now on? Their harmless jokes and everything will become different from now

“Why?!”

“Click,” the door opened and Rex walked in with a tray of food.

“I knew this would happen.” He placed the food on the table and joined her in bed. “I learned from my brother that women should be respected, so, Celeste, I’m sorry for seducing you, but I’m not sorry for sleeping with you.” He smiled and brushed her hair backward.

“Now, do you still see me as a child?”

“Rex, what else do you want? Haven’t you done enough?” Celeste glared at him.

“I want you and you know it. I slept with you, so I have to take responsibility for it. My brother also taught me that. So, Celeste, marry me.” He took a box from the tray and opened it to reveal a sparkling

diamond ring.

Celeste looked from the ring to Rex and vice versa. Was this his meaning of ‘I’ll keep our relationship a secret, I promise?‘

“Do you know what you are saying?”

Rex nodded. “Indeed. I don’t keep promises.”

That’s right, how did Celestine expect a lover of gossip to keep promises?

“I’m not interested in marrying you, Rex.”

“Then, do you only want to keep having s3x with me?… That’s immoral, don’t you think?”

Was last night not immoral?

“I don’t want any. Last night was a mistake. And I hope it won’t happen again.”

“You hope… but I’m not intending to allow you to hope, Celeste.” Celestine took a deep breath to calm down. “Get me a new dress.”

“I can do that. But you can’t leave without my ring on your finger.” “Rex, are you aware that you are driving me to hate you?”

Rex curled his lips into a smile. “Can you? If you don’t wear my ring, any man that blindly comes close to you, I’ll kill them all. I might accidentally kill someone I shouldn’t and get in trouble. It will be fault. You can’t be so stubborn for ten years. If you can keep hurting yourself, I can’t hurt myself anymore… not after what we shared last night. The bruises you left on my skin with your nails are still fresh and now you want us to pretend like nothing happened?” He shook his head. “I can’t, Celeste.”
