Taming Mr. Cold and Arrogant

If we were just in a different situation, I would laugh just by seeing his stunned face or maybe I would throw myself at him and initiate the first move to kiss him again, but no, we are not as it is a real life. 

"Why are you here? What are you doing here?" I asked faking my hard expression. 

"Sweetheart, let me explain." He said trying to touch me again. 

"Sweetheart?" I snorted. "Do you hear yourself, Daniel Kelley?"

"Fine. Sophia, I will explain everything but please, you need to listen to me."

"Tss!" I chuckled sarcastically, crossing my arms in front of my c.h.e.s.t. "Then explain everything to me, Daniel Kelley! Why did you buy my father's company and why the hell on earth did you introduce yourself as my husband in front of my family?"

"Because I am. I am your husband----"

"No! We're just pretending to be couple, remember? Well, unless you forget, let me remind you of your words Mr. Kelley, we got married just because of an agreement and we don't have any commitment to each other!"

"Then f.u.c.k that agreement!"

I gasped when he suddenly raised his voice and his expression changed into serious. 

"And f.u.c.k all the people who say we are not a real couple because we are, Sophia! We both signed a contract in front of the altar and we sealed that agreement with a kiss! Don't tell me you've already forgotten? Do you want me to kiss you again to remind you of that moment?"

I clenched my teeth as I gave him the most deadly glare I could ever give. 

"You didn't answer my question! Why did you buy my father's company? What kind of show is this, Daniel? Were your words, your insults and judgements towards me were not enough that you had to buy my father's company? For what, to show me that you are stronger? To add your insults and add salt to the injury?"

"Sophia, that's not my intention for buying your family's company----"

"Please, Daniel? I don't care whatever your reason for doing it, but since you already had it, can you now leave my family alone?"

"Sophia, I told you that's not my reason!"

"Then what?"

"I wanted to help you. I wanted to help your Dad and your family's company."

I chuckled at him, but we both know it was fake. 

"I'm not doing anything, Sophia, I just want to help!  And all I said to your father was true."

"And what are those?"

"That I will help you and take care of you until my last breath."

I stared at him for a few seconds before finding myself laughing in front of him. 

"Are you insane, Mr. Kelley? First, you bought Dad's company, secondly, you introduced yourself as my husband without my knowledge and now you speak nonsense!"

"Whatever you may call it, but I'm telling you that what I said is true. From now on, I will stick on your side like a chewing gum and I will never leave whatever things you do to push me."

I suddenly became confused about where our conversation is heading. 

"Let me help you reopen the case." He seriously said as he looked straight into my eyes. 

"What case are you talking about?"

"The case you filed against Joseph De Lucca, seven years ago."

And that's it, the bomb exploded not because of the case but because I suddenly remembered what he said the first time he confronted me about it. 

"Wow! Did I hear you right, Mr. Kelley? Wait, let me analyze this for a few seconds, so the help you were mentioning is about reopening the case?"

He was about to answer by I stopped him, raising my palm in front of him. 

"I thought you said, you don't f.u.c.k.i.n.g care about it? That you don't give a damn about me or my past? I thought you also said you don't believe me, that I am a s.l.u.t who gave my body to my ex-fiance's friend before our wedding? So why all of a sudden you wanted to help me?"

"I'm sorry, I was wrong then. I didn't know everything and I misjudged you. I'm an idiot and I'm sorry."

"Now you're sorry? Do you think your sorry will vanish the hurt you caused me?"

"I know it's not but-----"

"Then stop saying sorry and leave us alone! I don't need your help! My family doesn't need your help! And I have already forgotten what happened before. It was a long time ago. Do you know what's the thing I am now trying to forget?"

"You!"

"No!" He took a step forward but I glared at him so he stopped instantly. 

"Honestly, I have already forgotten your face and the way you look like."

"Sophia..."

"Craig was right, what happened in the past will remain in the past and there is nothing I can do to change it. So don't push me back into that dark cliff of my life, Daniel. If Joseph wants to enjoy his life, then let him be, as long as he doesn't bother me anymore."

And when I am about to leave, I felt a hand wrap my petite arm and pulled me towards the stairs. 

"Daniel, what the hell are you doing?"

I asked surprised, trying to remove his hand but it seems like an iron welded to my arm. 

"Tell me where your room is, I think this is the right time for me to show you this thing."

My eyes widened when I heard what he said. He will show me his....? 

"No!"

My heart began to pound faster as he continued to pull me. We have already reached the top of the stairs and now passing the hallway towards my room. 

"Sophia, I need to show you this important thing. You need to see this so you will understand me!"

-Forgodsake! What is there to understand? His jewels?'-

I don't think I really need to point which of the rooms in the hallway is mine as he stopped right in front of the matt purple door. 

"Let's go inside so I can show you---"

"No! Forgodsake, I don't want to see your jewels!"

"What?" He stopped from opening the door and turned to me confused. "What jewels are you talking about?"

His mouth slowly formed an 'A' before he burst into laughter. He dropped my hand and clutches his stomach, trying to control his laugh. 

"So all this time while I was pulling you towards your room, you were thinking about my 'jewels'?" He asked, emphasizing the last word. 

"Yes, because you said you need to show me something important!"

He bit his lower lip and looked at me with amus.e.m.e.nt dancing in his eyes. 

"I never thought you're also fantasizing about my body, sweetheart, especially these 'jewels' of mine." He smirked. 

-'What the---'-

"But you should have said it. I told you before, you just have to say a word and you will experience the best night you have ever experience in your life." he said giving me a mischievous grin as he took my hand and put it on his toned c.h.e.s.t. 

"What the hell, Daniel Kelley! You're a nasty, arrogant jerk!" I screamed, narrowing my eyes on him and pulled back my hand. 

"Why? What's wrong with that? We're couple, a husband and wife and it's normal to do something like that---"

"Argh! Stop it! You are such an annoying jerk and a pervert, you know that?"

"Oh, sweetheart, you were the first to think of something like that."

He continued to chuckle and I continue to glare at him. 

"Yes, I said I have to show you something important, but that didn't mean showing you my 'jewels."

He smirked before opening the door and dragged me inside. 

"I need to use your computer." He said as he closed the door behind him. 

But my eyes widened when a nasty idea came to my mind. 

"Oh, my God, Daniel Kelley! Don't tell me you're going to show me a p.o.r.n movie, you jerk?"

"Sweet Jesus, Sophia Yzabelle Kelley!" He looked at me, his face turned horrified. "What are you talking about? I am not into such thing!"

"Ohh..." the way he mentioned my name sounded like music to my ears. 

What am I thinking? 

"Where did you get that crazy idea of yours?" I bit my lower lip when he stared at me as if I had grown into two heads. "You're killing me, do you know that?"

He walked over to my computer table and opened my laptop. I thought he had already stopped talking, but I was surprised by his next words. 

"You don't know how much I wanted to touch you and make you mine, but I always restrain myself from doing it because I know you're not ready and I don't want to force you on something you didn't want to. But oh, God! Your sweet mouth and crazy mind is slowly killing me!"

"Excuse me, Mister, I didn't do anything to you!" I hide my embarrassment by looking directly at him with my chin up and a raised eyebrow. 

"Argh! Goodness! You better sit in this chair, sweetheart, as far as I can control myself from not touching you."

He motioned me to sit in the chair in front of my laptop. 

"What is that?" I asked him when I was finally sitting. 

He breathes deeply and turned back into his normal expression. 

"I know you said you don't want to open the case again, but I hope this video would change your mind. If that happens, I want you to know that I will be here whenever you need me. I will help you through the process."

I didn't understand all the words he said until he pressed the play button.
