Marriage Of Benefits - Chapter 382
“He will obviously think about the city and how to protect it, according to him it will be beneficial if both of them are not together and you know that so why are you so hopeful.”
Jamie shook her head and said “I am not but I still want to hear him say those words before making any decisions.”
Jessica nodded her head “Alright, I am so tired and I need some rest now so I will leave first.”
Jamie saw her out and when she returned she too went to her room feeling dejected.
Rafel finally made his decision and went to look for the queen in her room but when he entered he saw that she was resting peacefully with a smile on her face. He remembered his words before he had left and how he had said that he would make the decision for her. Now that he thought about it he had to consider her happiness too in making this decision, he could not jut make the decision while still seeing her as the queen and sacrifice her happiness. She trusted her so much that she could sleep without any worry after letting him decide so he could not let her suffer. He smiled and left the room quietly to make sure that she did not wake up from her sleep, he was satisfied with just her peaceful sleep.
He went to his room to think about it and then finally came to a decision to he had to talk to Robert about things and how serious he was, he had to make sure that he did not reveal anything either that would turn out dangerous. He could not let him know that she was the queen until she was ready to say it herself so that meant that he could not go to him in his current form.
Robert was on his throne when he felt as if he was being stared at by someone so he opened his eyes to see but there was nothing suspicious that he could see. He creased his brows but before he could find anything suspicious, the feeling disappeared and he was all alone at his place. He shook his head thinking that he would soon be driven crazy by the thoughts of one person. He went to his room and lay on the bed but it didn’t help him to get rid of what he was thinking. The more he lazed around, more wild his imagination ran, how good it would be if she permitted him to touch her and have his way with her. Her scent and the feeling of touching her made him feel hot and soon he was sweating all over when he could not take it anymore, he sat up straight and caught his breath. A dangerous smile flashed across his face ‘I won’t give up on little devil, although I don’t know what you are but I am sure that I will have you one day because no one e has ever made me feel the way you make me feel.’
His lower body was reacting so wildly just at the thought of her and he wondered what it would be like if he actually got to touch her, his reaction was too strong that it made him curse ‘Damnit, you will pay for it little devil.’
He got off the bed and went to take a shower to calm himself down, he could not even wait to remove clothes as his body could not wait any longer so he turned on the shower and let the cold water fall on him. He waited for a while but it was not enough to dissipate the heat growing inside him, he felt completely uneasy and when he could not take it any longer, his hand went to his lower body as he tried to calm himself down. Soon the bathroom was filled with the noise of the shower and his low suppressed growns, he closed his eyes and waited for the painful torture to end but all he could see with his closed eyes was that beautiful figure standing in front on him and when he waited for a while he heard her say in an authoritative tone “I am your girlfriend so you are not allowed to be good to anyone else other than me”
He opened his eyes with a smile on his face and then a confused expression crept on his handsome face as he felt that this had already happened before, he felt that he had already said those words and it was like a deja vù. He shook his head thinking that it was impossible and now that he had calmed himself down, he decided to go to Jessica to decide about the engagement.
He went to his house but Jessica was not there and that was when he recalled that they had a banquet so he understood that she must be busy preparing for that. He went to take a stroller as he felt to bored, he went to see what was going around with the evil witches and if there was something being prepared against the queen again. At the thought of queen, he felt that she was way too similar to Rachel, he could not help but feel that both these people were the same. He dismissed tha thought and made a decision to silently protect the queen even though she was capable enough to protect herself, he respected that power and position of hers that it instinctively made him want to protect her at his level. When he made sure that everything was fine he went back and decided to go to his company.
Before he went there, he received a call from his company saying that person named Oliver was waiting for him and was reluctant to leave without meeting him. At the mention of this name, a piece of news flashed in Robert’s mind and he too wanted to meet this friend of Rachel, he told the to ask him to wait as he would be there soon.
When he reached his office, he saw Oliver already sitting there but he somehow looked different, he appeared much stronger than the weak human in the picture but then a picture could not be trusted. As soon as he closed the door behind him Oliver spoke “Why do you want to marry Rachel when you have just met and you even tried to ruin her company. I know she is beautiful but how can I trust you that you are not doing this for her money.”
Robert smirked and then said “Who are you to even ask that question?”
Oliver came closer to him and said in a threatening tone “I am her best friend and I can’t let her happiness be destroyed by someone so I am here to warn you that if you are not serious about her just back off.”
Robert raised his brows “What makes you think that I am not serious about her?”
Oliver didn’t speak anything for a while and just smirked as he said “You are Jessica’s brother, do you really think that Rachel doesn’t know about you being the leader of the evil witches. She doesn’t want to be connected to something that is evil.”
Robert gritted his teeth and held Oliver by his neck but not to tightly to make sure that the didn’t choke “What do you want to say, say it clearly.”
Oliver raised one side of his lips as he said “I know that you obviously want to use her as she is a powerful human being, you are after her for something that others don’t have, it is obvious that you do not love her.”
Robert’s grip on his neck tightened as he said “I am serious about her so you stay out of it.”
Oliver pushed him away and got out of his grip as he said “Are you really serious?”
Robert knew that he wanted him to prove it to him so he said that simply “What will make you believe that I am saying the truth.”
Oliver was taken aback by this person’s intelligence and he took a while to recover from it but as soon as he did he said “Give up your position as the leader and turn into a nice person only then can she be with you.”
He gritted his teeth as he said “Even if I am in this position, it doesn’t mean that to am evil.”
Oliver raised his brows “So you like your position more than her.”
Robert shook his head “No, off course not.”
“Then what is the problem in giving it up.”
Robert did not know how to answer this question, on one hand he wanted to get married to this woman and on the other hand he could not give up his position even if he wanted to so after a long silence he said “I can’t”
