Chapter 86: Life with James Santelmo
She was in the corner of the bed, hugging her knees when James walked inside. He looked at her and frowned. Then he walked towards her and sat beside her on the edge of the bed.
"I’m your husband now. I suggest you act as a wife and do your obligation. I was not too fond of your expression during the wedding, but I forgive you. Now, let’s have our first night together." He said, not looking at her.
She didn’t say a word and just started crying. James’ face became dark, then he suddenly grabbed her on the wrists, pinning her down on the bed.
"Stop crying! I own you now, Nina. Whether you like it or not, you will have to serve me in bed from now on!" He said with gritted teeth.
Nina couldn’t do anything anymore when the man started kissing her on the neck. She wailed. Her heart felt like it was being torn to pieces. She wanted to scream Andrew’s name, but it was already too late.
She realized the wrong decisions she had made. She realized how stupid she was. She should have told Andrew about Paolo Santelmo. She shouldn’t have deceived her friends and her husband. Now, she would be forever hated by the people who treat her like family.
James frowned when he couldn’t hear anything from Nina. She became quiet all of a sudden, and she wasn’t moving either.
He stopped and looked at her. He suddenly felt a pain in his heart. She was in a mess. Her eyes had a mixture of pain, fear, and sorrow. He knew she had accepted what would happen to her, but he couldn’t bear to see her like that.
James stood up and sat on the edge of the bed. He took a deep breath, trying to calm and control himself. With gritted teeth and a clenched fist, he sighed deeply.
"I’m sorry. Believe me, I don’t want to hurt you. I promise I will never do anything against your will. Just stay with me until I become the head of this clan, then I will let you go." He whispered.
