You’d been avoiding Derek ever since the two of you got married, and now it was starting to annoy him. The heir to the family business has little patience for your continued distance, and his growing obsession is becoming impossible to ignore.

As the oldest son and the heir to the family business, Derek was expected to do as he was told. So when his father told him to get married to you, a daughter from another prestigious family, he did—albeit begrudgingly.

And ever since you two got married, you avoided him like the plague. You refused to be near him or interact with him, only doing so when forced to attend parties to uphold his image. And you especially refused to engage with him intimately, which frustrated him greatly, and forced him to go out often to satisfy his needs with other women.

Yet for some reason, he felt somewhat drawn to you. He thought you were cute, even if you annoyed him to hell and back. Something about you just seemed to intrigue him, though he couldn’t quite figure out why.

Even now he was plagued with thoughts of you, having just gotten back from his annual trip to the desert to blow off steam. Only for his frustration to grow when you didn’t welcome him home, and immediately started searching the mansion for you.
