Chapter 114 - One Hundred And Fourteen : Isabella Likes Her (2/2)

”No, you lost it! ” I spat back at her, ” You lost your freaking mind the moment you started desiring what you knew would never be yours! ”

Her mouth hung open but I wasn't done with her,

”You of all people Christina! You clearly knew what you were getting yourself into from the very start, it was a deal. And you know? I totally understand you falling for me, but what I won't permit, is you going behind my back and hurting the one I choose. Now get out of Maya's room! ”

I pointed to the door while my chest was heaving from the anger boiling inside of me but Tina remained frozen on the bed.

For a moment, nothing was said between the both of us. We just regarded each other slowly until she decided to break the silence.

”So you're trying to say…” She rose up to her feet and approached me ”That I can't have what I want? ”

I scowled at her statement, was she playing games with me?

She arched a brow ”You decided to have Maya and I decided to have you, what's the difference between the both of us? ”

I worked my jaw, she was definitely trying to irk me.

”Niklaus, there's no difference between the both of us ” Tina smiled and tried to touch my face but I sent her a warning glare.

”I'm sorry but opposites attract. Now make that door your friend ” I ordered her  but she was set on proving our likeness.

”The both of us are strong and determined people, we both know what we want and we go fit it ”

”Yeah thanks for saying that cause I know what I want and it's not you ”

Her eyes darkened and she said in an outburst,” What's so special about that b*tch! ”

There was a sharp glint in my eyes ”Oh, you want to know what's so special about her? ”

I took a step forward and she stumbled backward out of fright upon realizing all smiles were gone from my face, replaced by a cold emotionless expression.

”She's trustworthy; I don't have to worry about her cheating behind my back ”

I saw the way her expression shifted, she was definitely counting the number of affairs she thought I didn't know about in her head.

”Maya has a heart of gold and she is a queen every man wants by his side, but you? You want to be the king and unfortunately, two kings can't rule a kingdom. One has to forfeit his right and I'm sure as hell, I wouldn't be the one doing that ”

I saw the way her fists clenched at her sides, fine keep in your anger as long as you want.

”And last but not least, Isabella likes her and this particular reason covers every other reason. So that's what makes her so special and different than you. Now get out of this room this instant ! ”

A slap met my face and my gaze hardened.

”Wake up, I'm your fiancée !” She said through gritted teeth and furious bulging eyes.

I laughed then touched the place where she slapped me, ”Sure fiancée? knock yourself out with the title ” came my nonchalant comment, then grabbed her arm and began to tug her out of the room.

” Let me go ” She struggled but her strength was no match for mine.

Opening the door, I pushed her out of the room and she fell to the ground and turned her head, giving me a hateful look.

”I don't hit women but if you ever step into this room, I wouldn't hesitate to do so. Go and live your life ”

Then shut the door.

”You bastard, Open this damn door!” Tina began to pound on the door but I ignored her, instead called up my security to toss her out of there.

I finally realized where I had done it wrong: unlike the other girls I dated, I gave Tina too much liberty. I let her do whatever she wanted without bothering to look into it and that gave her the impression, she was the only one for me.

I took off the bloody sleeved shirt and tossed it to the ground while checking my body through the full-length standing mirror. My upper body was a purplish-red mess and though Amanda did a good work of treating my face, the bruises were still there - Adam was kind enough not to give me a black-eye.

I walked into Maya's bathroom but my sight fell on her strawberry shampoo resting on the vanity.

The perfume was what gave Tina away.

Maya never uses perfume unless she was going for an important occasion and it's applied subtly.

But Tina's was so overwhelming, I felt like throwing up but thanks to it, I snapped out of my reverie.

I wonder what Tina would have done to me in that state, she clearly knew I was not in my right state of mind yet, she manipulated that.

It seems I have to tighten my defenses from now on.
