Sorry for the late update, life happened and I had too much going on to concentrate on writing, but now I am back hopefully so I'll be updating more frequently. Next chapter will be longer and we get to see Edward soon.
I did not know how long I sat on the cold floor of my kitchen, Edwards sinful voice rang clear in my head. He did well on his threat to ruin everything my family stood for. The phone was lying discarded on the floor; I had yet to disconnect the call. Tears began to form in my eyes as it daunted upon me that many people would now be losing everything they had due to me. Workers would all their jobs, people that I dealt with on a daily basis would be left with nothing; they all had families to feed. My mind went to poor Miss Nott who spent the evenings cleaning my dad's office for extra money. And then my own father who spent his entire life working tirelessly on building something he could be proud of. How could I face any of these people knowing that I was the reason behind their loss?
The company was on the verge of bankruptcy, many people still had their jobs and I knew if we tried hard then we could somehow save it all. We were short on investors all we needed was to convince people to put their money into our company, if the new hotel project with Mr Khistr was a success then we'd make enough profit to be back on track.
With my mind set up, I preceded my plan to invest my entire trust fund into Swan Industries. I was certain my father would disagree but it was the only way I could help, and this was happening all due to me.
After all these months I had forgotten Edwards threat, the night he swore to destroy everything I held dear to me, I had foolishly shrugged it off as his bluff to try and scare me into going back to him. It had been a while since I had heard anything from him; I had genuinely thought he had moved on. My anger and hatred for him had increased, I could not believe this was once the man I had loved and was willing to spend the rest of my life with. How he had turned so cruel and cold hearted was beyond me. It was beyond understanding at how he could wish to destroy innocent people's lives just to get back at me.
I thought back to a time when he was so full of love that, I almost thought it never happened.
The elevator doors opened, and I stepped into Edwards's lavish apartment. He was standing in his kitchen clutching a class of water in one hand and his phone in the other; he was talking fast and urgently to the person on the receiving end. His voice was smooth and sharp, anger laced his words he was clearly very annoyed. I felt sorry for the person on the receiving end; with his back turned towards me I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his waist.
He was too tall to reach, so I stood on my toes and kissed his neck. He cut his phone, not bothering to say bye and turned his body around to me, his arms making their way around the small of my back. My breath hitched, I was always taken aback by his surreal beauty. Deep green eyes that watched me with unadlutered love, a strong sharp jaw that had a small hint of stubble, his dark hair falling onto his forehead. His features were chiselled and absolute. He gave the air of a very powerful man who could not be controlled or told to do otherwise.
His hand moved towards my neck, removing my dark curls and his lips lightly trailed feather kisses in the crane of my neck. His lips moved towards my face, his cool breath making me shiver in delight.
"You look absolutely ravishing" his voice was tight and controlled, barely a whisper.
I had tried to look nice for him tonight; my brunette locks were let out in light curls around my back since I knew how much he loved my hair down. I was wearing an emerald dress, one that I brought simply because it reminded me of Edward's eyes. My legs were bare, and the black heels that I wore made my legs look longer, I was always a tall and athletic girl, but in comparison to Edward I always felt so much smaller.
His hungry lips found mine, his mouth dominating the searing kiss, his lips moulded against mine as though he wanted to consume me whole, and his tongue made its way into my mouth trailing against every surface. He only stopped when I was in desperate need of air. Feverishly he sucked on my neck, his teeth lightly grazing my soft skin; he bit down hard, and I knew full well that a mark would surely be left there - he was branding me. As his teeth continued their attack upon my skin I tightened my arms around him, his mere movements caused a desperate ache between my thighs. He pulled back reluctantly, once again looking at me intensely.
At times I pondered on whether or not this was a conjured dream that I had yet to wake up from, as Edward Cullen was by definition perfect. It was beyond my understand as what compelled him to take an interest in me when they were plenty of older, beautiful and more experienced women ready to fall on his feet, I knew I was not ugly I would be dishonest if I was to deny my own attractiveness but Edwards beauty surpassed the normal good looking person. His love for me went skin deep, he told me he fell in love with me because I was the only person who made him truly happy, who understood him and loved him regardless of his stature and wealth.
His thumbs grazed my face "you're thinking to hard" he said, his eyes watching me with open curiosity.
I laughed in response, "I'm just wondering how I got so lucky".
"I'm the most fortunate man" he deadpanned. "To have someone as beautiful, strong-willed and passionate as you and I'll be god dammed if I ever let you go" his voice was raw with emotion, and my heart swelled, Edward hardly ever talked of his emotions and for him to be so open with me made desperate to show him how glad I was to have him in my life.
"Show me how fortunate you are" I whispered in his ear, my lips trailing across his face whilst my hands moved quickly towards his shirt playing with the buttons. His arms guided me across the kitchen and suddenly I was off the ground, he held me in his arms and took fast strides across the hall and up the stairs. I clutched onto him, he kicked his bedroom door open with his leg not bothered to let me go just yet.
He carefully placed me on his bed, the dark silk bed sheets felt so soft underneath me. He looked down at me and wasted no time in removing his shirt.
His hand went to his pocket and brought out a small blue box laced in silver ribbon.
"I got you something" he opened the box, inside were two glittering diamond drop earrings, they were shaped elegantly as icicles and glimmered so bright I thought my eyes would burn from staring at them too long. I didn't say a word, instead I threw off my dress and showed him how grateful I was.
All night long.
I furiously wiped the tears off of my eyes with my sleeve, now was not the time to be thinking back to better times. I should have realised I had no control in that relationship even then, Edward never once let me be on top, even our sex life revolved around him dominating me in all positions. I sent Jasper a message telling him I wasn't feeling well and I'd see him tomorrow, then I crawled into bed and slept away my problems.
Sorry it's short, I was going to add more to this but it was already typed up from months ago. I'll update soon with a new chapter, things are going to be moving ahead pretty fast. Oh and I wanted to ask, could you guys recommend me some good stories similar to mine, I haven't had any luck finding a good fanfic, with a sexy darkward. Most of them are fluff and I hate fluff.
