I stared at Adrain, trying to read his expression. "The doctor said you need to rest." I said and his fingers tightened around my wrist slightly. I looked down, my hand twitching to pull away.

"I don't want to rest." he whispered and then pulled me towards him and threw me onto the matrass. I gasped when my back bounces and Adrain shifts on top of me. His thighs trapping me.

"What are you doing?" I asked, my heart beating faster against my ribcage. "You can't just throw me onto the bed!" I shouted.

"Why not?" he asked, gazing down at me with a drowsy expression. He was pale and there were eye bags under his eyes. I swallow anxiously avoiding his gaze. He was clearly tired from the meds and still in pain. So why is he doing this?

"Because..." I said, trying to think of a good reason. "It's disrespectful." I managed to say.

"Disrespectful?" he asked, chuckling soflty. I glared, pushing him away from me and got out from underneath him. He grabbed me, pushing me back onto the bed and pinned my hands above my head and into the pillow.

"You're not going anywhere." he said confidently.

"I'll scream." I warned squirming underneath him.

He smirked, leaning down and brushing his lips against my ear." I know you will. Just not for the reason you think."

I shivered, heat rushed to my cheeks and there were butterflies in my lower stomach. I was silenced by his words. I didn't what to say to that.

His places his warm hand on my thigh and slowly start to slide it higher." Is this disrespectful too?" he asked.

"Yes very." I breathed out.

He pushed up my shirt, lifting it slightly as his fingertips gently brushed over my stomach. "And this?" he asked, staring down at me.

With a gulp I lifted my leg to push him away but he grabbed it, stopping my movement. "Why are you still fighting me?" he frowned.

"I can't stand you. You're intolerable." I groan, trying to get out of his hold.

"Say that again."

"I despise you." I said, leaning closer and glaring at him. His face hardened.

"You kidnapped me and locked me inside a room for days. You druged and forced me into a marriage contract." I hissed, anger boiling inside of me.

He glances down and crashed his lips onto mine. My eyes widened and I swallow back a gasp. I grabbed his shoulders, digging my fingers into him and tried to push him away. Without breaking the kiss he pinned my hands next to me again, opening them as he slid his own hands into his mine.

"Show me." he groaned. "Show me exactly how much you can't stand me." he said, leaving angry wet kisses down my neck and throat.

I gasped, my body arching against his. The tension between us only fueling the heat more. "Adrian." I moaned breathlessly.

I broke out of his grasp and turned him around so that he's now under me. I sit on his lap, pulling of my shirt and he wraps an arm around my waist, pulling me down closer. I moan when he starts kissing my chest, sucking on the skin like he's been waiting do this. He moans, the sound vibrating in his throat and against my skin.

When he goes lower I stop him and grab his chin, kissing him back. He holds my hips griding it against his own. "I'll show you." I promised and started to undoing his belt never breaking the kiss. He smirked his touch becoming more possessive.

Adrian laid behind me, one arm thrown over my waist and our naked bodies flushed against each other. His breathing was soft against my ear indicating he was finally asleep.

Slowly I unwrapped his hand from my waist and slid out. I looked back, making sure he's still asleep and hasn't woken up from my movements. I stand up, grabbed his phone and looked at the time.

I only have half an hour left. I took one of his t-shirts pulling it over my head and picked up my clothes from the floor. Tip toeing out of the room while closing the door soflty behind me.

Under normal circumstances I would've hated myself for climbing into Adrian's bed and letting him have his way for me. But after tonight I might not see him again. Since I'm going alone my safety can't be guaranteed.

Atleast we had some fun.

I opened my door and walked into the bathroom, taking a bath and throw a liquid into the bath to help me relax. I groaned resting my head against the tub and placed my arms on both sides. The evidence of Adrian's doing still present on my body under the water.

I blushed, thinking of what happened and submerged my head into the water in embarrassment. When I'm done I opened the walk-in closet and searched for clothes I could move freely in.

I go down stairs and pulled one of the maids into the corner, away from all eyes and ears. I need weapons and something tells me one of them can lead me to them. I'll use force if I have to.
