You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 26

Arabella got out of the car. It was quiet and dark. She wandered her eyes everywhere hoping she could find a hint of where they are in. She didn’t have a plan to walk along with Bill and to follow his order.

It’s a cemetery. They’re in the cemetery.

Arabella panicky chased Bill as she was afraid of the night in the cemetery.

Bill stopped suddenly. Arabella shoved her face to the solid back of Bill. His scent calmed her down. It’s slowly invading in her nose like a fresh morning breeze that she wanted to stay in that position and cuddle.

“What are you doing?” Bill turned around and saw her like day dreaming.

Arabella instantly blushed. “Nothing.” She gathered her cool to cover the obvious.

“Why we are here?” Arabella’s facial expression was a bit of scared.

Bill didn’t answer and just continue on walking.

The lawn was very spacious. Arabella was staggering with her stiletto as they were walking on a cobblestone pathway.

“Hey! Wait for me.” Arabella called him.

Bill didn’t even spare her a glance and just continued on walking.

“You are scaring me. Why are you taking me here? Are you a vampire? Do you gonna suck my blood and leave me dead here? Gosh. Or are you going to bury me alive here?” Her body was frightened of her thoughts. She was with a stranger, in the dark, at the cemetery, Whoaah! It’s a complete setting for a horror movie.

“Yes. I will bury you here if you don’t stop talking. Will you please shut up? You are exploding my ears.” Bill was obviously running out of patience.

Arabella’s eyes widened as she inhaled a deep breath and exhaled it heavily. She was left with no choice other than to keep her mouth shut or to seriously risk her life.

Bill stopped in front of a black tomb with a metallic gold words written on it.

“This is my grandfather’s tomb.” Bill said in a serious manner.

“Why did you take me here?” Confused, Arabella asked again.

“You don’t remember my grandfather?” Bill faced Farrah and his eyes narrowed like there’s an urge of anger that was about to go out.

“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t. As my mom said I have a selective memory in my childhood.” Arabella explained truthfully.

“Do you think you can just escape from what you’ve done because you have an amnesia?” Bill began to criticize her in a cold tone.

Arabella was very confused. “Tell me what did I do wrong with your grandpa then.” With all her problems right now, she didn’t have time to guess and think of what possibly happened before.

Bill didn’t answer her. Instead, he looked at her with deep eyes liked mocking at her soul.

“Mr. Sky, I want to go home now.” It was obvious that Bill didn’t want to tell her.

“Why are you escaping again?” Bill asked

“What are you saying? Please get to the point. Escaping what?” Arabella was dumbfounded. Why he's making everything like a guessing game?

“Look Mr. Sky. If you don’t have something to say to me. I’m going!” Arabella was running of patience. She was with a stranger playing a guessing game in a cemetery. Good thing he’s a handsome stranger or if he’s a vampire, he’s a prince. Arabella didn’t want to admit that if Bill’s a prince vampire, she would gladly offer her neck to him to be sucked.

Arabella shook her head with her dirty thoughts.

“How do you plan to go home without me, Arabella Jones?” Arabella stunned. Her eyes grew wider. ‘What did she call me?’ She was rooted to her spot.

“Surprise? Who said about tricking again?” Now, all floors were on Bill. The noisy Arabella seemed to lose her tongue.

“What do you want me to call you. Jane Foster or Arabella Jones?” Bill squinted at her face. The only light there was warm coming from a lamp post. She could feel his warm breathing.

Arabella took a step back to create a distance from him. His deep eyes were all at her.

“Mr. Sky. I don’t know what you are talking about. I just want to go home.” Arabella denied it. She didn’t want to be misunderstood why she needed to disguise herself. It’s not for him. Who would know that they’re going to meet each other again?

“Tell me Jane Foster. Is this all your tricks? You disguised yourself to kiss me that night. You wanted to enter into my life to make trouble again. What’s next? Climbing into my bed?” Bill walked nearer to Arabella.

“Stop. Don’t come closer. I told you. I don’t know what you’re saying. And I never plan on climbing in your bed!” She blocked her hands towards him. She was now in panic and blushed with the way he talked.

Bill smiled at her wickedly as he saw Arabella was blushing in the dark and was nervous.

“Okay then, I proved it myself.” Bill quickly grabbed Arabella’s arm. She then lost her balance and was about to fall, but a strong arm grasped her waist. Instinctively, she clung her two hands on his neck to avoid the fall.

Before she knew it, her lips were devoured by other lips. It was sweet at first, but it gone wild like hungriness is there.

Arabella was shocked but couldn’t help herself to respond to his every movement. His tongue entered her mouth intertwining her tongue. His strong hand became to wander crazily on her body while his other hand was supporting her waist.

Arabella hated herself that she liked his every touched that her body demanded for more.

Bill broke out the kiss and stopped his movement all of the sudden. He looked at her teasingly.

They were both panting with the kiss.

“Yes.” Bill replied quickly without any hint of hesitation to hide it.

“What?” Arabella couldn’t believe it. She was like dying everyday thinking about her problems and how to solve it but this person just played tricks to her.

“Do you think it’s funny to play with me?” Arabella let go of a small laugh as she felt fooled deliberately. She hated herself for being so gullible, but she hated him the most.

Arabella clenched her fists as she gritted her teeth in anger.

“Yes. It’s funny.” He smirked sarcastically.

“Are you even human?” Arabella let go of her annoyance. She liked to punch him to let go the anger in her body.

“The last time I checked, I am human.” He smiled at her, but it’s more about mocking her.

Arabella was controlling herself as she still needs to get out of there alive.

“What makes you human then?” She asked.

“Because you are still alive.” He said quickly with a serious facial expression.

Arabella was blown away. She felt her anger was covered now with intense fright.

“Why?” She gritted her teeth. This time she felt the cold air on her face.

“Because you owe me something.” His deep eyes were fixated on her.

“Tell me what is it so I can give it back. Then we’re done! I wished not see you anymore.” Arabella felt very annoyed by the man in front of her who could actually twist her life with just a snapped of his fingers.

“You can’t bring it back.” Bill’s face became gloomy.

“Then tell me what should I do to compensate that thing I owe you? And you to stop bothering me in the future?” Arabella was running of patience. She felt as she was running of oxygen too. She was drained already talking to this man. She promised herself as long as she can get away from the place, she would not make any appearance in Bill’s life. She would do any means to avoid him or their life to be entangled again.

“There’s no way you can compensate what you owe me.” His eyes darkened. Her faced was fiercely handsome even in the dark. His seriousness sent sudden goosebumps to Arabella.

“But there’s one thing you can do to ease me temporarily.” Bill walked again closer to Arabella.

“What?” Arabella just wanted to go home. She didn’t mind doing it as long as she can get out of the place safely.

“Sleep with me tonight.” Bill replied.
