I want you

...Drago’s Pov....

The moment I saw her, my heart did something it hadn’t done in years it stumbled, skipped, thrashed against my ribs like it had forgotten how to beat properly. I hadn’t felt that since I was a teenager, back when I was foolish enough to believe in innocent love. And yet, there she was, walking down the aisle with that practiced smile, and suddenly I was caught in something I couldn’t explain.

What was it about her?

Was it her long, dark hair, falling like midnight silk, daring me to run my fingers through it until she begged me to stop? Or maybe it was her eyes those captivating black eyes that called like a siren’s song, a storm raging in their depths, sadness hidden carefully behind that beautiful, practiced smile. That smile wasn’t for me; I could see the lie in it. She was breaking inside, yet still shining like fire, and that contradiction hooked me deeper than I wanted to admit.

Or maybe just maybe it was her body. The body of a goddess hidden beneath the neat, crisp

uniform. Every sway of her hips, every movement, subtle but sharp, stirred something primal in me. Desire, yes but more than that. Obsession.

I couldn’t figure it out. Not yet.

But one thing I knew without a single doubt. She would be mine.

In my world, everything has a price. Sex. Love. Loyalty. Even happiness. Everything can be bought, controlled, owned. And she this woman with her stormy eyes and angel’s smile would be no exception.

But when she pushed me away, her rejection wasn’t soft. It wasn’t timid. It was raw, burning with pure hatred and disgust. Most men would have felt insulted. Most men would have turned their backs. But me?

I laughed.

Because that spark, that fire, that refusal it made me want her even more. I love a challenge. I live for it. And she was the most exquisite challenge I’d ever seen. She wasn’t going to be easy to take, and that only made her worth everything.

I wanted to strip that defiance from her piece by piece, to hear her beg after she swore she never would. I wanted to tame her, to break her walls until she had no choice but to surrender. Not

because I forced her. No that would be too simple.

I wanted her to choose me, against her will, against her hate because I had carved myself so deep into her that there was no escape.

And the thought of it… the thought of possessing something so wild, so untouchable, and bending it to me…

It thrilled me more than anything ever had.

She was already mine. She just didn’t know it yet.

And when the time will come, when her walls

finally crumbled and she realises she could no longer fight me, I would be there waiting. Not as a man she hated, but as the only man she could never escape. The one she feared. The one she desired. The one who would ruin her and rebuild her in my name.
