"As for you," he stared while walking towards me. His stormy eyes made me feel a certain way. He looks at me as if he is a predator and me his prey. I quickly snap out of my haze and utter "I'm going to go now" very awkwardly. I turn on my heels but before I can go any further, he grabs my wrists and pulls me towards him. His face was inching towards me as his body was closing all gaps between us. His hand creeps up my face to move a strand of my hair and tuck it behind my ear. "Don't ever walk away from me," he growls close to my right ear that I can feel his lips brush up against it. His smell was intoxicating, taking me out of this world. I subside my thoughts as I push him away. "I have to go," I whisper, not able to look him in those lukewarm eyes of his...

Christian Hendrix's story (straight out of Coffee And Papers) * * * His heart was broken by the rejection from his one true love and now, a possible way surfaced for him to grow out of that pain. There was no thinking twice. He accepted the proposal and now, he's about to marry the only child of a business tycoon except, she's no ordinary person. Twenty-three-year-old Harieth Gryffin was a woman dazzled by the materialistic features of this world. A total opposite to his first love. A living epitome of your typical blonde heiress. Shopaholic, carefree, sassy and child-like attitude. A date was fixed and the media fully informed but it seems the Gryffins are up to something a little sinister behind the cameras. * * * My husband, whose heart belongs to another. * * * "I..." "You seem to have forgotten why you're standing here in the first place... Perhaps, I should remind you. We're getting married tomorrow just because I wish to see my family's company progress further. Therefore, because of the money. For future reference, there's no need for you to act like a wife. Don't ask me questions relating to my personal life and don't try to get close to me. I don't like you now and I definitely won't like you in a few months." With that, he walked away, leaving me to reminisce on his harsh statement. A crazy chuckle escaped my lips as I try my best not to feel affected by his words. Definitely, I've heard worse. * * * I won't call this book a sequel because it can be read as a standalone.
