Chapter 6
Hannah

“This is the last warning you will get before I drag you out of bed myself: wake up!”

I wake up to an angry male voice, and it takes some time for my eyes to adjust to the light inside the room.

“Where am I?” I ask, dazed.

“Great, you’re finally awake!” Tobias glares down at me, fully clothed, and I smile tiredly.

“Am I still dreaming?” I giggle and stretch in the bed, smiling dreamily. “I had this dream that I married a gorgeous billionaire, and he was the most amazing kisser—he looked exactly like you!”

Tobias deadpans. His face doesn’t show amusement or anger, and I shriek when I realize what I just said. But since there is nothing to save me from the humiliation, I shoot up from bed.

“I will get dressed!”

I rush out of bed and notice that Tobias goes oddly silent. I had expected him to say something and remark that I’m a complete mess, but he is just… quiet.

Curiously, I look at him and find him staring down at my breast. It’s then I realize my bra is no longer covering my nipples—it’s not my actual size, and I quickly adjust it with nervous hands.

“Sorry…” I’m blushing and also wishing I could read Tobias’s mind. Does he like the sight of me? Or is he embarrassed I’m not paper-thin?

Tobias, who has managed to peel his eyes away from my breast, meets my gaze with raised eyebrows. “What are you apologizing for?”

“I-I don’t know…” I laugh at my own jittering nerves. “For not being up to your taste, I guess? I’m not hideous, but I know I’m not a model. I’m way too curvy…”

I shyly look at him, and Tobias stares at me. There is an odd expression on his face that I can’t read, and when I look down, I’m shocked to see the outline of his massive cock pressing against his pants.

My lips part, but before I can say anything, Tobias growls and focuses his burning eyes on mine. “Not a word.”

“O-of course!” I chirp and try to act professional, but on the inside? I’m ecstatic. Tobias has morning wood, and while it might not be because of me, I would like to think I had a little to do with it.

It feels like an inner victory.

After getting dressed, Tobias and I hurry to leave his grand mansion. I don’t have any seminars today, but my other half has his schedule booked for the day.

My new husband has some important phone calls to make, and his private chauffeur opens the doors to a limousine for us. I’m pleased to find breakfast waiting for us inside and take a seat inside the luxurious car while Tobias is on the phone.

“Yes, we will make it to brunch,” Tobias is wearing a well-practiced smile even when speaking on the phone. “It’s ‘we’ because I will be bringing my wife. Yes, I’ve found someone new. Moving too fast? No, mother, I can assure you that we are very much in love.”
