Chapter Six

“How can someone so small be so heavy?" Nikolai complained as he hoisted me on his back and walked out of the plane. I'd woken up some time ago and since I still felt sleepy, Amelia was worried I would fall over and die-even thought that was physically impossible- so she asked Nikolai to carry me.

“What's that quote, don't judge a book by its cover? Carry your elephant, hubby,” I told him, patting his back. Nikolai grunted and kept on walking out with me. I closed my eyes as I tried to fall back into my sleep but I was woken by a sharp scream.

"Nikky!” A female voice squealed. I opened my eyes to see a petite girl beelining towards Nikolai and I. I jumped off his back just in time as she barrelled into him. There was a man beside her that looked like he had a good ten years over Nikolai.

"Audrey, I've only been gone for about three days," Nikolai grunted as he tried to push the girl away from him. The girl separated from him and pouted.

“Well excuse me for missing my favorite person," she said, placing her hands on her hips. Nikolai rolled his eyes at her antics and I narrowed mine at him. Wasn't this the same person who wanted me to stop rolling my eyes!?

“Ma'am, where is your luggage? Let me help you with it," The older man said, putting his hands out. It was only then the girl acknowledged my presence. She offered me a smile and gave Nikolai a confused look. I shook my head at the man and smiled.

“You guys, this is Sarah. She is my fiancee," Nikolai dropped the bomb. The girl's smile dropped a bit but within a second it was back and brighter than ever.

“Oh! Hi, Sarah, I'm Audrey. I'm sure Nikolai hasn't spoken about me," she said, wrapping an arm around my shoulder. Audrey had a warm personality and it felt as if she and I would get along.

“He hasn't. He's one tough nut to crack. Always worried about work and all," I said, forcing a laugh.

“And I'm Charles, his butler and number one confidant. Nikolai can't make a decision without me so I wonder how he did this one," Charles said, eyeing me weirdly.

"Stop being clingy, Charles. Is the car ready? Let's go,” Nikolai said. Amelia appeared behind me and we walked together to the car. Nikolai leaned down as he whispered to me,

“Don't you think I should continue carrying my elephant?" He teased. My chest constricted and I coughed, making Nikolai chuckle. There were two cars following each other. Nikolai and I in the first car and Charles, Amelia and Audrey in the second.

It was a quiet ride since Nikolai and I were mostly on our phones. I finally broke the silence as a question popped into my head.

“You said I'm your fiance, when are we getting married?" I asked.

“Are you that eager to carry my last name, Sarah?" He asked, smirking. Nikolai turned off his phone and looked at me with wicked eyes. I forgot how to breathe for a second then shook my head and looked straight ahead.

“No, it's just that, I want to know. Preparation. To prepare. Awareness," I said, jumbling up a few nonsense words. Nikolai chuckled.

“You'll go dress shopping maybe tomorrow or next. Whenever I'm free," he said, picking up his phone. I nodded and closed my eyes.

"Is there something you're not telling me? Did that dickhead get you pregnant? You've been sleeping way too much,” Nikolai asked, a bit of frustration in his tone.

"Ew! I might have had sex with Daniel but I'm not stupid enough to let him nut in me,” I said, snapping my eyes open. I didn't even process Nikolai's reaction as I turned away and said something I'd probably regret, "I prefer it in my mouth.”

From my peripheral vision, I saw Nikolai's eyes narrow and his jaw clenched. He flexed his hand then looked at me with a raised brow. Coming close to me, he whispered,

"I can't wait for us to get home. The only name you'd remember after I'm done with you is mine,” My breath hitched in my throat as I looked at him from the side of my eyes and a blush rose up my cheek.

“That's extremely inappropriate. And I'm not willing to have sex with you. At least not until we're married," I said, remembering our deal.

“Well then, Princess. We'll see about that," he said, smirking. I puffed out a breath when Nikolai finally moved away from me. The car stopped in front of a large mansion and I gasped when I stepped out.

“You didn't tell me you lived in a fucking palace!" I told him, hitting his shoulders. The initial embarrassment had subsided. Nikolai smiled without answering.

“The inside would wow you even more," he said, smugly. Nikolai grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me into the house. To call this place gorgeous would be an insult. It was out of this world. Words would be useless if I tried to describe it.

Amelia and the others came up behind me. She had the same awed look as me. We glanced at each other and I could swear the same thought crossed our minds.

“Let me show you to your room,” Charlie said, collecting my luggage. I nodded and closed my mouth.

"No!” Nikolai said, suddenly. "I'll take her to the room. She's staying with me after all,” Nikolai said, giving me a wicked look. I thought back to the convo in the car and my heart began doing back flips.

"No need, I'm comfortable with Charles escorting me to your chamber,” I said, wringing my fingers together. Everyone in the room looked at me weird. I glanced at Amelia and she looked as if she was holding back a laugh. She alone knew why I spoke like that. Whenever I got too flustered, I would speak that way.

Nikolai grabbed me by the arm and pulled me with him. We climbed some stairs before finally reaching a room separated from the others. It had an entire floor to itself and I was sure even if I screamed my loudest, no one would come to my rescue. Great! So I was stranded here with a man who was hell bent on bending me over.

Immediately we entered the room, Nikolai flung my luggage to the side and pushed me against the door. His hand grabbed my chin as he forced me to look up at him.

"What was that you were saying in the car?” He said, his dark eyes looking straight into mine. I pulled my eyes away from his as they roamed all around the room.

" Look, Nikolai, that was all just big talk. My mouth went ahead to ramble about subjects unknown to it and usually when it does this, we land in situations detrimental to us. I hope you understand what I'm trying to convey—” I yapped. Nikolai chuckled as he forced me to look up at him.

“Eyes up here, Princess. I find it extremely hot that you ramble and can't look me in the eye while doing so," he said, tilting his head to bite my ear. I placed my arms flat against the door as panic rose within my chest.

I had had sex before but sex with Nikolai? That was something different. That was something I definitely didn't want to explore.

“We shouldn't be doing this," I told him, clenching my legs. Nikolai placed his forehead on mine and put one hand in between my thighs.

“Why?" He asked. I felt hot and bothered knowing Nikolai would soon find out I was aroused. “Open your legs, Sarah," he murmured. I clenched my legs even tighter when he said that. Nikolai looked at me with a dark look and he threatened, “don't make me repeat myself, Sarah."

I ignored his warning and tightened them even tighter. His jaw clenched and Nikolai moved back. Taking off his belt, Nikolai grabbed both my hands and tied them together. He then hoisted me up in his waist then took me to the bed. Nikolai parted my legs and pulled my pants down, leaving me open to him.

Nikolai rubbed the pad of his thumb on my bud and hummed. “Had I listened and let you be, you'd have had to deal with all this by yourself.. why let you go through that when I'm here," he said, inserting his finger into me. I sucked in a deep breath as he sunk his finger into me.

Nikolai stroked deep within me, adding two more fingers. Just when I was about to orgasm, Nikolai pulled out his fingers and stood up.

“That's your punishment. Next time, if you're a good girl, I might let you cum," he said, leaving the room. I heaved as anger clouded my vision.

I hate Nikolai. I hate his stupid face. I hate his stupid body. I hate his stupid fingers. And most of all, I hate the fact that I want him.
