Bride For Rent novel Chapter 50

Raymond drank glass after glass of whiskey in his penthouse, he really don't know why he was drinking since it's been long he had drank to that extent but one thing was for sure, he doesn't want to be alone. He picked up his phone to call Natalia but he couldn't put through the call. He decided to call one of his bimbos but he knew deep inside they are not who he wished to see.

He looked at his phone timer to discover that it was 10:56 pm. A cute beautiful face popped up in his mind and he stood up immediately and searched for his car key, he has to see her one last time. Katherine will be taking her away from him tomorrow, so this is his last opportunity to see her.

He won't do anything, he will just look at her as she sleeps, yes, that's it. He staggered to his private elevator and fumbles with the buttons before pressing the down floor.

When he got to his car, he started the engine and left the underground parking lot. His heart was light at the thought of seeing her and he was already expectant. He is sure she will be curled up by now on her bed, looking as beautiful as always.

It was a miracle he was able to reach his mansion unscathed in his intoxicated state. He got out of the car and input the code, he went into the house, everywhere was dark but he didn't turn on the light, he didn't want Mercy to know that he was back, after all, he is going to leave once after watching Felicity sleep for a while.

He used the stair handrails to guide himself up. When he got to her door, he sent a silent prayer to heaven that her door should he unlock before turning the handle. To his happiness, it opened and he grinned like a schoolboy, stopping himself with all his power not to jump up and down.

He treaded softly to her bed, his hand got to the nightstand and he turned on the bed lamp. Her sweet face was now in his view, his fingers caressed her face and traced her eyebrow, her nose tip then her lips. He can't stop but wonder how can one be so beautiful that just looking at her face alone was soothing his lonely heart.

His eyes took in the rest of her body covered with the duvet, he wanted to feel her smooth flawless skin on his palm, he wanted their bodies to touch but he knew he shouldn't do something he will regret when sober. She was breathing softly, with her chest rising and falling.

He believes the alcohol is playing tricks on him because how can just her face alone melt his heart? Why does he feel so happy mainly by looking at her?

His fingertips touched her lips once more, a warning bell was ringing in his mind, he should go before he wakes her up but his feet refused to move. Due to the way she was lying, the top part of her breast was shooting out from the neckline of her nightgown. He gulped staring at it. The bell was getting louder in his ear now, reminding him to leave but instead, his hand reached forward and his fingertips traced her exposed breast.

An electric shot through his fingers into his whole body and he shivered, he gulped and licked his lips. Heavens, he wants her, he had always wanted her. From their wedding night till now, he had always wanted to have a taste of her. His gaze went to her sleeping face and he slowly leaned forward, when his lips brushed on hers, he sighed, he felt peaceful. The inner war raging inside him seemed to calm down and he wanted to kiss her more, to taste more of her.

Felicity moved then and as if sensing him, she opened her eyes which first showed shock before relaxing on realizing who it was, "little Ray, what are you doing here?" Her soft sleepy voice asked.

Raymond drowned in her dewy emerald eyes, "I miss you" he murmured "do you miss me too?"

"Little Ray" she sat up when she caught the wisp of alcohol when he spoke, "why are you smelling like this?"

He chuckled lowly, "I had a few drinks."

"Okay. Are you alright?"

She looked at him immediately, her eyes sparkling, "really little Ray?"

"Of course."

She threw herself into his arms, her hands wrapped round his waist "I like you too little Ray but Grace said you can't like me until I become a woman like you said. Does that mean I have become a woman little Ray?"

"You don't need to be a woman for me to like you Felicity."

She looked up at him, "but Grace is a woman. She said you can only like women."

"Grace is a woman but I don't like her. I like you."

She smiled and hugged him more tightly, "thank you little Ray."
