Chapter 2 Encounter

DESMOND'S POV

I walked into my hotel room after a long day to rest and find a helpless young lady coiled up in a ball on my bed.

I looked around the room in confusion, wondering why she was on my bed.

After I was refreshed, I decided to join her in bed even though I had no intention of messing with her.

Lying on my back and staring at the ceiling while engaged in my own thoughts, I never knew that the young lady on the bed could make such a move.

I stiffened as I felt a thin and petite figure wrap my body with her little and short hands.

Our bodies were entangled with each other with a spark of unknown emotion seeping through me as I tried to control it even though I found it hard to ignore.

I've been with a lot of women who were more beautiful and sexier than this strange woman on my bed but I've never lost control of my emotions which was strange.

Carefully, I disentangled our bodies as I planned to sleep on the sofa but the woman was awake anyways and all over me.

I found it strange as I wasn't disgusted at her seductive moves that looked unskilled, rather I was concerned when I realized how hot she was when we fell back into the bed. My eyes darkened as I realized that she must have been drugged with an aphrodisiac.

I called a doctor to come attend to her while I fed her with liquid to reduce the effect of the drugs.

The doctor arrived at the hotel and attended to her.

The effect of the drugs wear off after the injection that was administered to her.

I saw myself caring for this strange girl, a behavior that struck me too. I helped her to change into one of my night wear as there were no feminine wears in my room.

The following morning, I left the hotel very early at dawn to attend some important business meetings.

On my way to the office, I couldn't help but think about the strange woman that I left on my bed even though I felt attracted to her.

I didn't want to pursue any relationship with her or anyone at the moment.

My phone buzzed from an incoming call, I picked it up to answer the call.

"Grandpa!" I was tensed as I stood up abruptly to answer his call. His stern voice ran through the phone.

"Okay," I replied finally as the call ended.

Hurriedly, I left the office and went back to the family mansion to meet a strange man with the woman from the other night in the living room with my grandpa.

The tension in the room didn't go unnoticed by me when I stepped in but I ignored it and greeted my grandpa before clutching down on the sofa beside my grandpa.

The silence in the room was penetrating into my soul and I didn't like it a bit when my grandpa was so cold.

"Grandpa, you sent for me," my voice rang in the room as it broke through the silence. Grandpa looked up to me as he told me to be patient as he was expecting another guest.

My eyes glint with excitement and concern as my grandpa has never been the type to expect visitors, so I was surprised and my curiosity increased.

After hours of waiting, a familiar young lady walked into the mansion, her face fell when she saw her father in the room.

I couldn't help but wonder if this was the guest my grandpa had been expecting.

I hoped that she didn't cause any troubles I thought to myself as I stole a glance from my grandpa to see his reaction just to find him so welcoming.

"Wilson came here to get some bribe from me to keep the scandal you had with his daughter from the media, but I think it will be quite unfair to the victim that's why I sent for her to inform y'all about my decision." Grandpa said.

I massaged my temples as I could foresee what my grandpa was about to do. This was an opportunity for my grandpa to fulfill his wish as he has always been clamoring on me to get married.

Patiently, I waited to hear my grandpa's verdict from the horse's mouth.

"Des, I'm sure that you know this young lady whom you got entangled with last night?" Grandpa threw the rhetorical question at me. "My stance on this matter is that you'll get married to her."

"Wait! What?." Even when I saw this coming I still can't believe grandpa will ask me to get married to someone I don't even know

At this point I was raging with anger as I tried to explain to my grandpa that nothing happened between us and that I found her drugged, but my grandpa failed to render a listening ear.

"Des, the better you understand that there is no going back on this matter for you,in fact if you don't get married in the next three days I'll seize all your inheritance."

My grandpa has never been hard on me and I wondered why that was different and why he had to be so difficult with me.

I stomped out of the mansion angrily and drove off to my Villa after I glared at him.

While taking a dip in the water, my grandfather's words kept ringing in my head. I left the bathtub, dressed up and left the house after I had made a call to the lady to meet me at the bureau.

I couldn't imagine how desperate the bitch was to marry me as I found her already there. I'm sure she had planned something with her scheming Dad but I was ready to give her the kind of marriage she deserves.

We met at the bureau and got a marriage certificate under my terms. I got to know my wife's name during the signing for the first time.

I hate to refer to Eleanor as my wife but that was what she was and I hated her the most for that, she didn't deserve to be my wife in any way.

Finally, I heaved a sigh of relief as the marriage certificate was given to us.

But I will make her regret getting married to me, i will make her life a living !
