Last Chapter 1435
Stella had rarely ever woken up before him.
He had always been terrifyingly strong, but their lovemaking last night must have consumed a lot of his energy, leaving him so tired that he was still sound asleep.
She stared at him and suddenly felt like doing something naughty. She pinched his nose and held her fingers there, trying to suffocate him.
Unsurprisingly, he soon knitted his handsome brows and quickly woke up.
He was surprised to see her mesmerizing eyes as soon as he woke up, which made him pause. He then took her hand into his and kissed it again and again.
“Are you okay?” he asked with concern, remembering how wildly he ravaged her last night.
She had only been willing to be intimate with him because she was under the
influence of a drug, yet he had taken advantage of her and had his way with her over and over again last night.
Stella did not speak.
Seeing her like that made his expressions turn a little colder. He fell silent for a long time before he got up and slowly put on his clothes. He sat there on the bed without saying a word.
Stella stared at his back and finally sat up on the bed too. She was anticipating what he might say next.
“About last night…” he began. “I will make sure to punish myself for it.”

She could not keep up with his train of thought and was clueless about what he meant. Then she heard him continue with a deep voice, “I promised to keep a distance from you, but I failed to do so. I even…”
He paused, then his voice turned even deeper as he added, “I even took advantage of you last night. It was completely my fault. I failed to keep my promise to you, so I will punish myself.”
“Are you okay?” she interrupted him as she found his behavior absurd. “I was the one who started it last night, remember?”
Stella certainly remembered very clearly that Weston asked her repeatedly to tell him
who he was before he started making love to her. Although it might be true that she pleaded with him to stop in a hoarse voice later in the night, he still would not stop, but she could not deny that it was her who started it all.
Weston said nothing and kept his back turned to her. He looked down. Stella did not see how the emotions were surging in his eyes.
“Only by locking myself up,” he said hoarsely after a long silence, “can I keep myself away from you.”
He knew that the only way he could stop himself from seeing Stella was to keep himself locked and shackled in a cage.
Stella misunderstood him and thought that he was not willing to see her anymore. She snorted in anger and tore the blanket away from her body till it fell on the floor and got up despite her body being sore and in pain.
“Fine!” she snapped. “Just pretend that last night never happened, then! You can be with anybody you like, and I can be with anyone I choose. We’ll just mind our own business from now on. It doesn’t matter
that I might still have some feelings for you now. It’ll soon fade anyway…”
She was still talking when she suddenly slipped as soon as her feet hit the ground, but before she knew it, a tall and muscular figure appeared in front of her and lifted her up from the floor.
Stella thought that he was only worried that she might hurt herself, so she tried to push him away, only to see his flustered eyes looking straight at her and asking her,” What did you just say?”
“It’s none of your business!” She frowned. “Let go of me!”
“Can you just repeat… what you said just now?”
“Let go
of me!” Stella barked through gritted teeth.
“No!” Weston held her even tighter now. “I heard you say that you still have feelings
for me…”
“So what? It doesn’t matter anyway since you’re so determined to push me away. Since that’s what you want, I’ll grant you your wish.” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“No!” he cried in a raspy voice. “It’s not like that… I was only worried that you’d hate me. I just can’t let you go! Whenever I think you might end up with another man, I get jealous like crazy. I want nothing more than to kill all those men who want to be with you, that
way. They’ll never get near you again…”
“Then why did you tell me all those things?”
“I was afraid that you won’t ever be happy with me,” he said, hugging her close to his chest. “The only way I could stop myself from seeing you is to lock myself up in a cage.”
Stella had no idea what to say. She raised her hand as if to slap him but then changed her mind and dropped it.
After a long time, she finally sighed and told him, “I give up, Weston. Why don’t we give our relationship another try?”
She waited long for his response, but he still said nothing. She was just about to look up at him, but then the man who had been silent all along suddenly dropped down on his knees.
Stella felt something cold sliding onto her ring finger. She looked down and saw that it was a diamond ring. She had no idea how long Weston had had it with him.
The next thing she heard was Weston’s voice telling her, “… I love you.”
As long as she was willing to give him a chance, they still had a long future ahead of them together, and he will spend the rest of his life trying to prove it to her.
