Irresistible Invitations novel Chapter 9

Juliette Pov

I sat there wrapping my duvet around my with wide eyes as I watched a group of a man entering my room after knocking two to three times.

My eyes fluttered open after I heard some knocking sounds on my door.

Without thinking I gave the permission to the person to Come in guessing it to be Whitney and closed my eyes sleeping back. But then I heard some sounds and my eyes fluttered open only to find a group of a man entering into my room with some bags and some boxes keeping it on the floor.

"Wha- What are you all doing?" I asked as I broke out of the shock and wrapped the duvet more firmly to cover my body.

"Sorry for disturbing Ma'am but Mr. Sullivan asked us to keep all these boxes in your room" one of them spoke and turned around leaving the room.

I watched as more of them came into my room and they kept some other boxes before scurrying out of the room.

By this time my room was full of bags and boxes. I couldn't even see the floor. The room was that packed.

When all of them left I stood on the bed finding no place to walk on the floor. I took out the rubber band from my hand and hurriedly tied all my messy hair into a ponytail and took the cardigan from the bedside wearing it covering myself.

"What the hell is all this?" I whispered as I shook my head and kept a hand on my hips.

The door flew open and in walked with all his glory Zachary eyeing all the boxes and nodding to himself satisfied. He looked fresh. His hair was neatly combed back and it was still wet probably from his shower. He was wearing a full sleeved black plain shirt with his coat hanging on his arms and as always with a black pant and black shiny shoes.

"What the hell is all this and can't you knock before coming in?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest and glared at him.

"Last time I checked, it was supposed to be my place," he said and I rolled my eyes looking up biting my inner side of my mouth.

"I can walk in wherever and whenever I want. I don't need permission" he said and I scowled at his foolishness and chewed my inner side so harder that I swore I could feel bloody taste from that chewing.

"Oh yeah? Didn't your Mother teach you to knock before entering a woman's room?" I spoke sweetly. Very sweetly.

"Whatever!" He murmured and I huffed thinking that it was supposed to be mine line, not his.

"And what the hell are you standing on that bed?" He asked looking up at me and I shrugged pointing towards the boxes.

"What are all these?" I asked shockingly politely.

He sighed and looked around all of the boxes.

"This are your necessities," he told me and I furrowed my eyebrows confused.

"Necessities?" I questioned.

"Clothes and all," he said and the way he eyed at my bare legs I swore to god I felt little nervous. His gaze was intense and his eyes roamed on my legs before looking up.

"Eyes up here Mister" I spoke Icily making him snap out of his little world.

"Right!" He cleared his throat looking elsewhere and then checked the time on his watch.

"Keep whatever you want and check if you need anything else. If you do then give a list of your things to Whitney" he told me and turned around to leave.

"Wait!" I spoke up and he stopped turning back raising his eyebrows questionably.

"I don't need all this, even more " I said as I gripped my Cardigan tightly.

"And why is that?" He asked crossing his hands across his chest.

"I don't want anything from you okay. Isn't that obvious? I don't even know why the hell did you even marry me. You even kept me here away from everyone and God only knows what you did to them that now they are even denying that they even know me" I pushed back the hair out of my face angrily and walked towards him. The bed squeaked whenever I took a step.

"If anything I want from you then that will be Freedom. Freedom from you and Freedom from this place. Freedom from all my nightmares. Do you understand?" I spoke pointing a finger towards his direction.

"Listen! I have had enough already. Don't start again with your Drama" he said and gave me a bored look which ignited my anger.

"Drama?" I snapped and walked, even closer to him with my blood boiling.
