"Berrycloth turn to the Bancroft's residence." My eyes widened at his words.

The Bancroft's residence? In these clothes? I shook my head instantly. There's no way I want to see my husband to be for the first time dressed like this. I didn't want to ruin this opportunity, if not for myself at least not for father.

"No don't take me there. I have to change my clothes first." I bit my lower lips as I spoke. There is just something about this man that seems so intimidating. Even if I had stared into his eyes earlier, right now I couldn't hold his gaze for a second. Not after what he had just done to me.

Defiling my face before my husband gets to see me. Yes, I was a bit of an old school. I loved commitment. Committing to just one man alone rather than having several boyfriends. Not that any had approached me yet or that it was a bad thing to have several men but I believed in the one man one woman love.

I've been waiting for the right man to get married to and give my all to him even if I was yet to find him. I had fantasized about what my life and future would be like since a child, only that now. It's not the same way I had imagined.

If I'm to be married to Dalton Bancroft, then I had to be committed to just him alone.

But meeting this strange man gave me doubt of everything I thought I was. I had somehow liked what he did earlier and somehow wanted more even if knew I was to be married soon. I hated that he was changing me to what I'm not in just a few hours of meeting him.

"There's nothing wrong with your outfit Princess." He said lazily staring at me. I hated him calling me princess. I hated everything he did.

"I'm literally soaked from my head down." He smiled.

"How wet are you?" It took me a while to understand what he meant, and I blushed.

"A... All I'm saying is I don't want to see my husband dressed like this." I said to see the smile on his face fall.

"How many times do you need me to tell you you belong to me and me alone? Thought we already settled that?" Something dangerous flickered in his eyes as he stared at me.

"I... I'm getting married soon, I won't be... Belong to you." As much as I didn't want to stutter or show any weakness before this man I did. My weakness showed every time and I hated it. I've never hated a lot of things in one night like this night.

Maybe I should have sealed my lips from speaking cause he looked so dangerously upset right now.

I had no idea what man would want to claim a woman he just met especially after telling him I was already getting married to someone else.

He closed the gap between us again trapping me between his huge figure and the door again. I tried to push him off me again, I wouldn't want the last thing that happened to repeat, but he grabbed both my hands placing them behind me as he held them both with one of his hands.

He trapped both my legs between his thighs again using one hand to hold my chin, lifting my face to his. "You're mine Adara." His deep husky voice was heard as he swiped his tongue on my lips.

I shivered, my heart racing so fast.

He swiped it again and again finally diving his tongue into my mouth for the briefest moment and then pulling out to watch my reaction. "Do you understand?" My brain had blacked out, my mouth felt heavy to speak or say a thing to him. I was stuck in the seat. Shocked at his action.

He bent his head to capture my lips fully nibbling and sucking on my lower lips before pulling out again to watch me closely.

"Y... You k... kissed me." Tears filled my eyes but it never fell.

"I know."

I... I've been kissed. This man... This stranger has stolen a kiss from me without warning...

"Do you understand?" he repeated his question.

"Y... Yes."

"Yes what, do you want me to continue?" My breath rushed out of me at his words.

"I... I belong to you." He let me go with a satisfactory smile displayed on his lips.

"Any man who cannot see how beautiful you are in this state must be blind." I felt hot, and I couldn't tell if it was because of the heater or him. My entire being felt so hot to the point I was unable to breathe.

He tilted his head again and this time I closed my eyes. I had no idea why, but I did.

1. 2. 3... Nothing. I felt nothing.

He let me go arranging his suit on my body and I opened my eyes feeling a bit embarrassed at my action.

"I'll see you some other time Princess." Suddenly the car door opened and a man in a black suit came to view.

"Master Evren." The man bowed slightly.

"Evren?'. I repeated his name in my head.

"She's Adara Langford take her in to change."

"Welcome to the Bancroft's residence Madam please come with me." The man said and I turned to look at the man that has brought me here. He wasn't smiling this time, his face was just void of any emotion. So cold like he hadn't smiled or talked to me moments ago.

"They'll take good care of you and prepare you for your dinner. Hurry you're a minute late." I stepped out of the car immediately at Evren's words memorizing his name in my head for reasons I didn't know. For some reason, I didn't want to forget his name even if I knew I wouldn't be seeing him anymore.

I stared at the large mansion before me. No, it was a castle. This big building could even contain an entire village containing nothing less than 5000 people and above. That's how large it is.

I wouldn't say I'm surprised at its size. The Bancroft's are wealthy people, showing off their wealth wasn't surprising for me.

"We'll take you through the back of the mansion. There are lots of guests at the entrance, Master Dalton would be mad if he sees you like this." I nodded at the man's words as he led me to the back. I turned in the direction where Evren's car was but that space was now empty. Like no one was there before.

My heart whizzed at the thought of him. Skin buzzing like an electric spark. I felt hot again. I could still feel his hot tongue on my lips and the way it pried my mouth open to dive into my mouth. My breath rushed out of me, that one encounter with this strange man has turned my world upside down.

I've never felt this way before. Was I turning into a slut?

'Adara you're getting married soon.' I reminded myself as I took in deep silent breaths and tried to get him out of my head.

I should never meet him again. I was already getting married to someone else, I should not be thinking or feeling this way about a man I might never see again.

The man in the black suit led me through the back door and I stepped in with him. There were people there. Some workers stared at me disdainfully and some just didn't care if I was there or not.

They were all over the place, a few of them running around and others giving instructions. The man in a black suit whispered something in a woman's ears, she turned to look at me sizing me with her eyes before nodding at the man's words.

"Please come with me, madam."
