A Crazy Night Novel

Just as Christina was about to hide, the strapping man before her swiftly blocked her way.

“What are you trying to do?” she muttered warily, brows knitted into a frown.

Nathaniel narrowed his eyes at the woman like a hunter zeroing in on his prey. “Have you forgotten who you are?”

Has it slipped her mind that we’re husband and wife because I haven’t reminded her in a while? Is that it?

“Does that matter? You treat me the same no matter what role I play in your life,” Christina replied, looking calm, cool, and collected.

Whether I’m his wife or not, all he does is rob me of my freedom and keep a constant watch on me…

Nathaniel gripped the woman’s shoulders tightly, to the point where it seemed like he could break her bones at any time. “Can’t we sit and talk about it? Why must you keep fighting with me?”

In response, Christina pulled her hair aside to reveal the red marks on her neck. “Look at what you’ve done. Is this what you mean by talking things through?”

If he had even an ounce of respect for me, our relationship wouldn’t have become this bad!

By then, Nathaniel could feel the fury in Christina’s eyes as they burned into him.

The next second, he gently caressed the latter’s face and tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ear.

“As long as you don’t get close to Francis, I’ll respect all your opinions,” Nathaniel said, a lot calmer and softer this time as he attempted to compromise with her.

Christina furrowed her brows. The man’s hands were warm against her skin, and she had to admit her heart was softening. That said, it was still not reason enough for her to give in.

“Listen. The problems between us didn’t arise because of Francis or Yosef. Do you understand that?”

“In what ways are they better than me, then?” Nathaniel retorted. If looks could kill, his scowl would’ve slain Christina on the spot.

“You’re better than them in every way, but you don’t seem to be able to respect me the way they have. Please just let me go….

Even though Christina’s last sentence was almost a whisper, Nathaniel felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, extinguishing all hope he had left.

He lowered his head and laughed at himself, the fire in his eyes long gone.

With that, he grabbed Christina’s chin and kissed her.
