Chapter 8 An Intimate Moment

Vanessa POV’s Well, turns out I was scared of his size while it fit in perfectly inside of me. Though it was painful at first, but I got to adjust to his size and it was mind blowing, I went to cloud nine and back. We were now properly dressed as we sat on the bed. “Gnero,” I called and he stared at me, his expression unreadable. “I want to visit my brothers,” I said and his eyes suddenly expanded, the lids stretching wide as his pupils dilated in surprise, only the whites of his eyes became more visible. “Are you serious right now?” He asked and I slowly nodded, and he scoffed dryly. “Is this why you had sex with me?” he asked and I sighed, not knowing what to say, I couldn’t possibly tell him I did it because I wanted to, it’d make me look like one of his whore. “Should we be talking about sex right now? I’m talking about my family now. Do you think I’ve had it easy this past few days?” I asked, trying my possible best not to yell at him. But he should be reasonable, we did have sex but that conversation can wait. “Neither did I, I was the one who got injured remember?” he asked, pointing at his injured arm and I rolled my eyes, unknown anger suddenly coursing through me. “Didn’t I make sure you were okay before I left? Can you stop talking about yourself and listen to me for once? I need to clear my name,” I retorted, trying to make him see reasons. “I’ll help you clear your name, but you can’t leave my mansion for now. It’s dangerous,” he replied and my face flushed in anger, he had no right to tell me what to do and what not. “What if I insist?” I asked with my eyes staring at his face as I waited for his response. “You can’t insist Vanessa, I call the shots here,” he said and I immediately exploded with anger. How dare he! “Gnero, I’m not one of your henchmen that you’d boss around. Neither am I asking for your permission to leave the mansion. I can definitely do things my way,” I replied. I didn’t like the way he was acting, my family feud was none of his business, he should drop the act and stop poke nosing. “You have no choice but to do as I’ve said,” he said and he stood up, attempting to leave. “Gnero!” I yelled, and I stood up. “Ouch!” I mumbled as I felt pain in between my legs, Gnero was the cause of this. I hissed silently and I stood in front of him, pretending not to feel any pain. “Don’t get ahead of yourself, I’ve told you I don’t consider myself as your wife, so I don’t need any husbandly protection from you,” I stated and he suddenly started laughing. “You don’t consider yourself as my wife? But you were begging me to fuck you harder earlier,” he chuckled and my face immediately flushed with embarrassment as I recalled how I kept on holding him to myself, screaming for him to go faster. Fuck! I was already getting wet just by thinking about it, but this isn’t the time for this. “It wasn’t like you didn’t enjoy it either,” I scoffed. “You’re so tight for me baby… yeah… fuck!” I said, mimicking his voice, but he wasn’t a bit embarrassed, his face held no expression. “When you’re done, you can leave. I've got things to do,” he said plainly. “Don’t try to play the pity card Gnero, you got injured because of me, I’ve already paid you back with my body. We’re even now,” I said, realizing how shameless I sound, but sometimes in life we gat to be shameless to achieve our goals. “Having sex with me was just a payback?” he asked and I found myself staring at him in astonishment, wouldn’t he let this slide? Who does he think he is? “I told you before we had sex right? So what’s your problem?” I asked, wondering why he was acting as if I used him. “Well, guess that didn’t work,” he scoffed with a frown on his face. “Wait, Gnero, were you trying to manipulate me into doing your bidding?” I asked as I chuckled lowly, realizing he was way smarter than I thought, a hard nut to crack. “I guess you don’t listen do you? Even manipulation didn’t work on you,” he said and I hissed, I should never let my guard down again. My father had thought me the art of manipulation and gaslighting, though I didn’t figure Gnero’s plans in time, he still had me fooled for a while, he shouldn’t be trusted. “The sex was nice Vanessa, the best I’ve ever had, a virgin. Be sure to soak yourself in a warm bath, you must be hurting down there,” he said and my cheek flushed, I didn’t expect him to notice anything, but he was filled with surprises. “If you have nothing important to say, you can leave,” he said, pointing at the door. I gave him a withering glare, my face masked with disdain. I was pissed I wasn’t able to get what I wanted from him, despite the intimate time we both shared together. With the way he handled me on bed, I thought something had changed between us, but I was wrong. “Don’t think this is over,” I stated and I walked out of his room, my mind already made up, I was going to leave his mansion by all means. He wouldn’t be able to stop me no matter how hard he tries to. I refused to be locked in here with no say when my family’s are on each other’s throat, my father would not be happy wherever he’s watching us from. Gnero wouldn’t be able to stop me, either way, I’m leaving this place tonight and he could only try to stop me if he knew about my escape.
