I’m Dedicated To You

I stirred in my sleep and I felt a weight against my naked body. I pry my eyes open to look at the man beside me.

I looked at the sleeping Bradley and his face looked so peaceful and relaxed. Some strands of his hair were scattered on his face and I removed the strand from his face but my hand was caught after that.

“You are finally awake” I heard Bradley’s masculine voice and I nodded my head shyly remembering what transpired last night

“That’s nice, “he says, nibbling my earlobe. I knew what he wanted but I’m exhausted.

“Hubby… I’m t.. ired..”I stuttered and Bradley pinched my breast. I know my words didn’t get to him at all but heaven finally smiled at me when Bradley started blaring.

“Fuck,”he cursed loudly standing and leaving the room to answer his phone and I sighed in relief.

I decided to also stand up so I could drink some water because I was thirsty. I got myself cladded in Bradley’s shirt and made my way to the kitchen.

After I got myself a glass of water I noticed I was feeling nauseated but I brushed it off before I left the kitchen. The urge to vomit was so huge that I quickly rushed to the sink to throw up.

I throw up almost nothing but I still felt nauseated I decided to get myself water but I couldn’t grab the glass of water in front of me and I was staring at the glass of water but instead of grabbing the glass water I heard a shattering noise and when I looked up I saw Bradley looking at me in awe…

The room felt constricted and I felt my breath seize because my little secret just got exposed. At that time my hands started getting shaky and I quickly hid my hand behind my back.

I looked at Bradley’s face but I couldn’t decipher the range of emotions displayed on his face. I closed my eyes waiting for him to bombard me with questions but I saw none forthcoming and I opened my eyes after the long deafening silence.

“Why are you so careless you could have gotten hurt,” Bradley says walking towards me and he pushed me aside gently picking up the scattered glass shards on the floor.

“I’m sorry hubby I’m just so tired, “I say, pushing my hair to the back and Bradley just nodded his head.

“You should go get dressed, we are going back to the city,” Bradley says, pecking me on the head. He urged me to leave the kitchen and I vacated the kitchen without looking back.

After I walked out of the kitchen I looked at my shaky hands and a tear escaped my eyes.

“I’m sorry Bradley, maybe if I had met you earlier my decision would have differed, “I thought as I walked to the room.

BRADLEY’S POV

I watched how she tried to keep her shaky hands at bay while walking out of the room and my eyes got teary at how she was struggling.

I picked up my phone and I dialed a number on it.

“Hello, Lucas, “I say into my phone.

“I want you to book me lunch with my wife’s friends and make sure you fix it into my schedule today, “I say into my phone.

I sighed heavily at how Georgina was suffering alone. After Frederick told me his discovery about Georgina battling with brain tumors it took me a long time to come to terms with it because how could God be so unfair to just one person?

“I hope you can trust me, Gina, I hope, “I thought, sighing heavily.

VICTORIA’S POV

I groaned softly, stretching my body lazily and I reached out to touch my alarm clock but instead, my body came in contact with a rigid contact and my hands froze immediately.

I pry my eyes open slowly to look at the obstruction and there it was a bare-toned rigid chest blocking my vision and all my senses stood up at the realization.

“Oh my God, what I’m doing on a bed with a man, “I thought panicky, not even sure of whom I was on the bed with. I tried to remember the other night’s ordeal but the body beside me suddenly stirs and he mumbled some incoherent words.

I calm myself down trying to come to terms with the situation.

“It’s fine Tori, it’s just a one-night stand, no one dies, “I thought to myself in my head before I proceeded to remove the strange man’s arms around me and I decided to get up but a voice stopped me.

“You are getting up so early without saying goodbye too” I heard the raspy voice of the man and I thought the voice sounded familiar and then it clicked.

“Douglas?”I called to be sure and I heard him answer by drawing me to his naked body and I felt his morning erection poking me.

“You this jerk!!!”I yelled, pushing him off me and because of my impact he rolled out of the bed falling on the ground and I heard him whimper in pain.

“How dare you take advantage of me”I accused him since I don’t remember what transpired last night I decided to blame.

“What do you mean taken advantage?”Douglas says standing on the floor in annoyance but he forgot one simple detail: he was stark naked.

“Ahhh” I screamed covering my eyes with the duvet after seeing Douglas’s naked body and I just heard him chuckle before he grabbed one of the duvets.

“You don’t need to be nervous, you saw everything last night,” Douglas says shamelessly. I looked at him bewildered but I decided not to drag the matter on longer.

“Let’s forget what happened last night, “I say, trying to get down from the bed but Douglas’s next words shocked me.

“How can we forget it when that’s our first night together,” Douglas says and I shot him a glare.

“Don’t be so feisty babe, you are going to get used to it,” Douglas says walking to my side he raises my chin staring into my eyes a memory flash through my eyes but I wasn’t able to wrap my hands around it.

“I still think you have the most beautiful hazel eyes,” he says, kissing my eyes and then nibbling on my earlobe but I stood transfixed on a spot when I remembered something fragrant from what happened the other night.

“If we do it now, you are going to be my girl and there is no turning back,” Douglas says in his deep hoarse voice.

“Of course, let’s do it, “the drunk Victoria says, fumbling with Douglas’s shirt.

What’s that memory? Did I just sell myself to this man in just one night? But I decided not to jump to a conclusion and ask the pervert man that has been keeping his hands busy with my body.

“Douglas “I mumbled in between the lips. Douglas engaged my lips too and he answered, still not giving me breathing space until I pushed him away.

“What happened last night “I asked Douglas because I don’t remember a thing and the little I just recovered can’t be it.

“You became my girl,” Douglas says smiling evilly and I was dumbfounded …
