Manipulation
Ethan
This wasn’t the plan. I wasn’t supposed to kiss her yet. I knew Mandy was still in this vulnerable state and kissing her yet wasn’t part of it. I wanted her to heal first, I wanted her to choose me completely, mentally, physically, and emotionally. I wanted her to pick me.
But for how long do I just stare and not touch? The floral dress she had on today brought out her eyes. She looked so gorgeous and all that ran through my head was to kiss her and hold her and tell her how much I’ve been waiting to do this. To hold her, to have her.
I knew the plan was to break Christian. I wanted to use her to shatter his heart just like he did mine. Killing him was way too easy and so was making him suffer. But having Mandy to myself would crush his heart so much that he would never love me again, and would never trust me again.
He was obsessed with her and I was going to ruin that.
I wanted her to be drawn to me, to see me and see truly who the person she married was. I don’t care if he had come back in a better light and had sent me several letters in rehab stating how sorry he was and how much he was working on himself too.
I didn’t care, I didn’t want to know and I wasn’t going to forgive him anyway, so I didn’t respond instead I planned on how to get back better.
How could he be happy, when he ruined my life? Why would he find happiness, when I was named the evil one, the jealous brother? Who told him things were just going to go great between both of us after he tried to kill me?
I hated him for a long time and when I got back I studied him too, plotting until I knew that Mandy was the solution to ripping him apart…
So yes, maybe I wanted to make Mandy fall for me, but how could I do that when I had completely fallen for her and truly wanted to have her around me at all times?
“Mandy was so beautiful, unique, and talented. And Christian doesn’t deserve any of it at all,” I thought angrily, opening a bottle of red wine while I ran my fingers through my frustrated hair.
I closed the bottle and walked to the kitten’s room to check if she was ready. I told her we were going out, but actually, we would be attending an event today where her husband was going to be present.
“Kitten,” I called and knocked on her door.
“Come in,” she said and immediately I pushed the door open and walked into the room, to find her completely dressed up. She wore a silk slip dress and held her black purse with her black heels, as she walked to me looking ravishing.
“You look phenomenal,” I said and I could see her face heat up at my compliment, making me smile as I took her hands into mine walking her out of the room.
“Let’s go,” I whispered and we got into the backseat while our driver drove.
“You said it’s someplace simple, why does it seem like it’s not,” She looked at me and I stared at her.
“What do you mean?” I asked her immediately.
“There’s another car following us and I can tell it’s your security. It’s suspicious,” she said and I chuckled.
“I need to have them by my side at all times, wouldn’t want you running away now, would we?” I smirked and she uncomfortably shifted to the other side staring at the window.
“Whatever you say, ” she breathed out tiredly, and I didn’t say anything but went back to pressing my phone.
We arrived at the spot and parked far away from the event in order to gain access to the back door and avoid the crowd. It was a private event, but I don’t think I want too many people on the matter and making assumptions about Mandy when this is between Christian and myself.
I held her hand and walked in with her, while I kept her in the hallway with my security guards to keep an eye on her.
“I would be back soon, just wait here with them,” I said and I could see the sadness in her eyes from the way she looked at me leaving. But I needed to attract our prey here and that would be done only if he saw me.
I walked out of the hallway and went straight to where the event was held. I got there staring at everyone until I saw Aiden and Christian walking in my direction. Aiden noticed me, spoke into Christian’s ears, and left him wondering alone as we had talked.
“Hi brother,” I said immediately as I walked up to him. He stood there frozen and unable to say a word, while he staggered backward in shock.
“Surprised?” I laughed with a smirk appearing on my lips, as I turned around and mixed myself up in the crowd when he stammered in the process.
“How did you do?” He just said and started to move, clearing the people in his path as he tried to catch on with me.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
I quickly rushed to the hallways, the boys leaving and taking their position immediately like I had asked them to while Mandy stood there staring at me confused. I grabbed her and pulled her to the wall when the door of the hallway opened and Christian walked in.
“Kiss me,” I said to her immediately, and she looked at me shocked.
“What?” My body was pressed against her on the wall, and my hands held her face staring deeply into her eyes.
“Kiss me, or they shoot him,” I said and she knew they hid in a way Christian wouldn’t be able to see them. As Christian got closer, immediately she pulled me in, grabbed my hair, and kissed me with a tear dropping from her eyes.
I didn’t care, I enjoyed the kiss and hell I know she did. But it was most satisfying knowing Christian saw it too.
“Mandy,” I could clearly hear the heartbreak in his voice. He felt betrayed, he felt pain. And I could tell from the way he called her name he was hurt.
She pulled away trying to run away, but I grabbed her hands and turned her around, making her face me as I rested against the wall. I gave her ass a little squeeze in front of him and kissed her again, while another tear dropped from her eyes, as he ran away from there, giving me satisfaction.
