Mafia King’s Innocent Bride

Sophie’s POV

“This will be our house from now on.” said Vincent as he opened the door of the mansion where he took me after our wedding. It was a new mansion located near the school where I’m studying at and the one where I work.

It actually has no difference with the one where our wedding was held. It has high-ceiling, glass walls and huge crystal chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. Guards are everywhere in the house. There were maids, I think they are more than fifty, oh, and there were personal chefs too. “Why did we have to move here?” I asked him while we were eating our dinner.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Because it’s closer to your university. Don’t you want that since you told me that you still want to work and study?”

“Y-Yes, thank you for considering it.”

“Tomorrow, Venom will go with you at your school. She will stay by your side throughout the day until you go home.” He said again.

I nodded. “I understand…”

“You need to be here as soon as you’re done with your work.” he said.

“Okay…”

Then his phone suddenly rang. He grabbed it from the table beside his plate and answered the call. “Hastings.”

I stood up when I was finally done eating and Venom guided me upstairs. She opened the enormous double doors and beckoned me to step inside. My eyes automatically widened upon seeing how huge and luxurious that bedroom was. It has high end linens decorative trim moldings, a raised ceiling and an elegant headboard with tufted cushioning pleated bed. There was a widescreen hanging on the wall across from the bed.

“This will be your room from now on, Miss Sophie. The walk-in closet is right beside the bathroom. If you need something, please don’t hesitate to call me.”

“Thank you, Venom.”

After that, Venom went out and left me inside that bedroom. I looked around it and sat on the soft mattress. At least I’d still get to work tomorrow.

I checked my phone to see if dad texted me but I didn’t find anything. I heaved a sigh as I just decided to take a bath first before sleeping. Both the walls and the floor of the bathroom was covered with dramatic Cassiopeia marble. There was also a custom-designed silver travertine tub, which sits in front of a large window that offers a view of the city. It includes a trough sink top that matches the tub, along with shower walls and a floating vanity wall.

I removed all of my clothes as I dipped myself into the tub filled with warm water. Maybe Venom already prepared it for me while I was having my dinner.

Dad didn’t even call me, not even Seb. I wonder if they still care about me. I miss them so much even though I just arrived here. Tears started running down my face as I leaned my head on the tub. It feels so lonely here, I’m already losing hope because I don’t think someone still cares about me. I feel like I’m the only one here. If only my mom is still alive, maybe… maybe I’ll have someone by my side.

After taking a bath, I covered my body with a black towel and walked out of the bathroom since I forgot to bring my clothes. I was about to go to the walk-in closet when I suddenly felt someone’s gaze from behind me.

I was surprised to see Vincent sitting on the bed with his arms crossed while staring directly at me. “W-What are you doing here?!” I asked as I covered myself with my hands.

“You’re asking why I’m here? This is our room, why I shouldn’t be here?”

“O-Our room?! B-But I thought it’s—

He stood up. “We’re already married. I guess there’s no wrong in sharing the same room and sleeping on the same bed.”

“N-No, I don’t want that. Can you just stay in a different room? I know we’re married now, but I’m not used to it yet, I can’t sleep knowing that a stranger is beside me…”

“Then be used to it.” He replied as he started walking towards me.

I moved backwards while still covering myself. “W-What are you doing? D-Don’t go near me!”

“I didn’t know you have such great body. May I see it?” he asked teasingly although he wasn’t wearing any emotion on his face.

“N-No! S-Stop going near me, please!!”

He looked straight into my eyes. “This is our first night together, don’t you think we should be doing what newly-wed couples usually do?”

“N-No! Please don’t do this to me, Vincent. I-I’m still young… I-I’m not ready yet…” I mumbled.

“And do you think I care?”

“W-What?”

I stepped backwards until my back hit the wall. A smirk appeared on his face when he realized how helpless I was. “Looks like you can’t escape from me now?”

“N-No, please… V-Vincent…”

“Don’t you know that I haven’t had sex for a month now? I’m already craving for it. And the reason I married you is also because I want to have someone to satisfy me every night.” He cornered me by putting his hands on both of my sides. “You are mine now, Sophie.”
