Are you sleeping with her?
Hampton went over to Nathan’s house the next day after he had dealt with Demelza. He had refused to let her leave because of the anger he felt towards her.
He knocked on Nathan’s front door and waited a bit before it was answered. Nathan’s expression changed into a surprise as he wondered why Hampton had visited him early in the morning. It wasn’t even seven yet.
“Dude, what are you doing here this early? I have a busy day today and I need a lot of sleep to face my work off,” Nathan hazily ruffled his hair as he tried to stabilize himself from falling asleep.
“What is going on between you and Demelza? Don’t tell you are fucking her behind my back?” Hampton’s words woke him up instantly.
Fuck! he would indeed be screwed if Hampton found out about his affairs with Demelza. He thought of convincing words that would keep his best friend from suspecting him.
“You must be out of your mind Hampton. I thought you knew about my agreement to help her father in disguise. Why would I sleep with someone like her in the first place? I would never do that to you, not even in a million years,” he denied hoping that Hampton would fall for his lies.
“Fuck! That is true. I am sorry that I doubted you. I thought you were sleeping with her behind my back. I guess my men misunderstood your relationship with her. Fuck! I messed up badly,” Hampton vented out as he felt guilty for what he had done to Demelza.
“Messed up?” Nathan tried to pry into the meaning of his words but Hampton ignored him and changed the subject entirely.
“My wedding is a day tomorrow and I am still messing around. I really can’t focus with Demelza all over me. She lives in my mind rent free,” Hampton sighed gently pushing Nathan aside to let himself into his house.
Nathan felt a little dug in his chest but remained composed. Whatever he felt now was just a bit of irritation that Hampton had disrupted because of his sickly obsession over his ex.
“Then let her go and focus on your marriage. You would only fuck things up for yourself if you keep seeing her. She is no good for you,” he said as if he was any better for her either.
“I can’t do that Nathan and you know that. I really wish I could fix things between us,” Hampton sighed falling on Nathan’s couch. “You have to be at my wedding. I might get cold feet if you don’t show up. This marriage is stressing me off,” he muttered while Nathan glared at him as he didn’t understand the reason why he would complain to him about a marriage he had agreed on.
The fact that he still had Demelza wrapped around his palm still confused him. “Why the hell was he still holding on to his ex?” Nathan mumbled to himself as he made his way to the kitchen.
He brewed a hot coffee since he was awake now thanks to Hampton.
“Would you like coffee?” He asked.
“No, I am leaving now. I just came to confirm your relationship with Demelza. I am sorry for disturbing you,” he got up from Nathan’s couch and left before Nathan could come out from his kitchen.
“That asshole,” he caused under his breath as he locked his front door.
While Hampton drove back home, he was more than convicted with himself. He was more troubled with the fact that he had hurt Demelza out of his jealousy. Now he had no idea how he would apologize to her.
Meanwhile, Demelza has been looking for a way to get out of Hampton’s bedroom. Unfortunately, he had locked her inside to prevent her from leaving.
She tried all she could to unlock the door but everything ended up futile. Sighing from frustration, she hit one of his vases in anger and it shattered in pieces. Just then Hampton walks in and she froze at the spot.
“I am sorry it slipped from my hand,” she lied but he didn’t mind her words because he was much depressed on what to say to her.
“I am sorry Demelza. I shouldn’t have acted rough towards you. The fact that my men gave me a wrong information made me go nuts. I was jealous about nothing. Please forgive me Mel,” he closed the gap between them but she moved away afraid that he would manhandle her again.
“There is no need for your jealousy Hampton. There is nothing going on between us and I will not be your mistress,” she spat out to his and his mood dimmed.
“You really do know how to piss me off without much effort,” he grabbed her chin and held it with a force that caused her pain.
“Let go of me Hampton,” she cried and he did so as he was still feeling guilty about what he had done to her last night.
“My wedding is the day after tomorrow. I want you there okay,” he softly said and she snorted in disbelief.
He was getting married yet had the audacity to ask her to attend. She watched to laugh out loud but held her mockery back. “You are so cruel Hampton. I will not attend your marriage no matter how many times you force me,” she declared and he smirked smashing another vase beside him.
“I guess you don’t want to ever meet your father again,” he threatened her and she remembered her place.
“I don’t give a damn about what you think about my marriage. Just show up, it is an order not a request,” he frightened her.
“Fine, but you have to let me go. I have to prepare for the wedding if I am to attend it,” she trembled under his glare.
He finally agreed but warned her ” Don’t try to act smart with me Mel. I will make your life a living hell if you do so.”
Demelza gulped down in fear praying that she would leave his presence immediately. After he was done making fun of her, he let her go.
She rushed back to her house and she’d a frustrating tears before going have a hot bath.
If she had her way, she would have made Hampton a dead man. But she was nothing but an average woman who could only bend to his commands in order to save her father.
After having a hot bath, she decided to call Nathan and informed him about Hampton’s invitation. She made sure that her voice wasn’t cracky before she spoke to Nathan.
“Um, good morning. I am sorry if I woke you up or something,” she said.
He remained silent for a while as he thought she was still mad at him for their heated argument the other day.
“Hello, are you still there?” She asked when she didn’t get a response from him.
“Yeah, I am listening to you just dazed out a bit. How are doing?,” he suddenly asked making them feel a bit awkward.
She paused for a while and decided to put her emotions aside since he only saw her as a sex partner.
“Hampton invited me to his wedding. I don’t know if it is okay to attend it. And worst of all, he threatened to keep my father in prison if I failed to show up. I am really confused right now,” she sighed over the phone.
“Attend it, I will be there so there is nothing for you to be afraid of,” he told her and she quickly ended the call once she heard his advice. He was a bit taken aback by her attitude but didn’t put much meaning into it.
The day of the wedding arrived and Demelza appeared in a subtle pink dress that elaborated her curves. She looked like a strawberry angel with the way she tied her hair up in a slick bun and the pearl studs she wore made her look innocent.
Nathan had watched her walk in with her best friend and almost knocked off his neighbor’s wine. He was completely mesmerized by her beauty.
They shared a quick gaze before Hampton approached her with a smile on his face.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“You look pretty as always, Mel. It is a sad thing that I am not marrying you today,” he said making her feel pathetic and embarrassed.
“Hampton,” an elderly lady called him and he walked away.
Nathan took her by her hand and took her to his hotel room.
“I am sorry about Hampton,” he said closing the same between them. “You look beautiful, Demelza,” he whispered to her.
Demelza flushed red from his words but slightly pushed him away. However, she was already dripping and wishing to have him inside her. When Nathan brought down his lips on hers she didn’t back away as she was hungry for his touch.
Their desires grew extreme and they hurriedly kissed each other in order to fill their desperate need. Nathan carefully unzipped her dress and tossed it on the chair that was close to him in order to avoid it from rumpling.
They filled each other with kisses and bites. Their moans increased as they engulfed themselves in the pleasure of their sex until they reached their climax. Nathan wrapped his arms around her and they both fell asleep as the wedding was not until 1 PM.
