His Wife (A Contract Marriage Story) by Heer Mangtani

Chapter 105

[MIA]

I had messed up, and I didn’t even know what exactly I did.

I lost my virginity to this man. Admittedly, he didn’t force me and I wanted it, but I was here as a ‘punishment’, so didn’t I have any right to know if sex was a part of this punishment?

Alex was mad at the mere implication, and I didn’t see him for the rest of the day. I had expected to see him for dinner and talk to him, but he wasn’t here. I slept in the dining room that

With that came the gentle realisation that I actually missed having him around. And as much as I told myself it was only because he was my only conversation in a day except Greg the chef, it would be a complete lie.

I liked the way he made reckless decisions when it came to me. I liked seeing Dom and Lana’s faces when he showed me a leniency or kindness I assumed was not habit for him. I definitely liked the way he handled me in bed, like I was his..

Not just my life or death or body. Me. My soul. My heart. He dominated me like he was the only one who could claim any right on me, and I had liked every part of it.

The next day I spent baking, which is what I always did when my head was a mess. Eight batches of cupcakes later, when my chocolate cake was in the oven, I walked out, just to find the man who had avoided me last night sitting on the couch, staring into his iPad once again, stress lines etched on his forehead.

“I can see you staring,” Alex acknowledges me without looking up.

My eyebrows furrow. “You’re avoiding me.”

I frown. “Can you look up?”
