《An Heir's Forbidden Love》Ch22.

feel attracted to her, I feel like I know her somewhere but I can't remember where and her voice sounds just like 'my little angel' the lady that was always by my side when I was still in coma. When I got out of coma and I didn't see or hear from this strange lady, I thought maybe she is 'my little angel' after all or just a figment of my imagination though I think I agree with the latter.
I don't know why mom is telling me that Cassie is my fiancé but from what I remember before I went to France, I don't really like Cassie. What did she do to make me develop feelings for her within that one year that I came back to the extent of me agreeing to the marriage contract? One more thing I noticed is that there is always a kind of thick tension between Sasha and I, it's like there is something everyone is hiding from me but what the hell is it?
I raise my head from my laptop just to see Cassie walk out of the bathroom while drying her hair at the same time, she is wearing a shirt of mine and one of my boxers as usual. I always cringe whenever I see her wearing my clothes, I really don't like it. Okay, the truth is that I don't like Cassie, I may lose my memories but I'm not a fool, one thing I'm sure of is that I have no romantic feelings for her and sometimes I get really irritated by her so how the hell did I ended up proposing to her?
"Jace, I got admission to one of the universities around here, it's about 45 minutes drive from here and we will be resuming by next month." She plops on the beside me on the bed while grinning in excitement.
"That's great." I only listened to half of what she said as I'm deeply engrossed in what I'm doing on my laptop.
"Is that all you are going to say?"
"As you can see, I'm busy right now. Can we talk about this later?"
"You are always busy." She whines and closed my laptop.

Not again!
"Cassie..." She pushed the laptop aside and climbs on my lap while pouting her lips seductively.
She places her lips on mine, I hesitate before giving her a chaste kiss but she pulls me back and deepens the kiss. She fumbles with the buttons of my shirt with one hand and tries to unbuckle my belt with the other. We have been here before and I have always been trying to avoid it. Cassie has been trying to get me to make love to her for a while now but the truth is that I do not feel sexually attracted to her and I think she is starting to get suspicious.
I try to end the kiss discreetly but she isn't allowing it, she is now straddling me while kissing me more desperately. I had to push her away slightly when I couldn't take it anymore. She stares at me in shock while I quickly get up from the bed and I try to rush out of the room while buttoning back my shirt but immediately she realized what I'm actually doing-running away as usual-she quickly get up from the bed also and place herself between me and the door.
"What is going on Jace?"
"What do you mean?"
"Don't try to play dumb with me, you know what I'm talking about." She whisper-yells.
Ha! She caught me there.
I rake my hand through my hair and sigh in frustration while thinking of what to say.
"Okay tell me the truth, a-are you..." she trails off.
"Am I what?" I narrow my eyes at her in a silent challenge for her to say what I think she's about to say.
"A-are you impotent?" She stutters while staring at her toes.
I clench my fist together in anger. "W-What did you just ask?" I take a menacing step towards her and she stumbles back and fall on the bed. I lean against her and pin her to the bed.
"You have to prove to me that you aren't then." She says defiantly.
Realizing what she asked earlier, I narrow my eyes at her in suspicion and jerk away from her.

"What?" She asks in confusion.
"You just asked me if I'm impotent."
"Yes." I see the moment when her eyes widens a fraction like she just realized what she just said but then her face suddenly takes on a neutral expression.
"Aren't you my fiancée? And didn't you say that we have been together for six months now? So how come you're asking me now if I'm impotent?"
"N-no, n-no, I-I..." she stammers.
"What are you not telling me Cassie?"
"N-nothing. It's just that ever since you have had that accident you have not been touching me like you used to and that's saying a lot since you used to like sex a lot before the accident."
"I'm telling you now that I'm perfectly okay and there is nothing wrong with me." I tell her with a slight scoff.
"Then is it me?" She asks suddenly and there is an expression like panic plastered all over her face.
I hold my breath and remain silent, what should I tell her?
"Am I not beautiful enough? Don't you feel attracted to me anymore?" There is a little quiver in her voice.
"Cassie, enough of all these okay? Why are we even arguing about this in the first place?" I pick up my car keys and made my quick escape.
I slam the door behind me and give a sigh of relief. I was rushing down the hallway when I bumped into someone and the person turns out to be Sasha. The cup of tea she was carrying poured on my shirt, even though the tea is lukewarm, it still scalded my chest a bit. I look at her in amusement as she fawns over me while trying to clean up the mess she created.
"Oh my, I'm so sorry sir. Let me..."
I don't know why but I can see her hand trembling as she unbutton my shirt, she gasped when she was the spot where the tea scalded as it's now turning purple.
I bite my lips try to stifle a groan when I felt her small hand on my chest, on my abs precisely.
I feel so embarrassed right now, my hands tremble as I unbutton his shirt and it didn't help that he hasn't said a word but instead he has been staring at me.
Suddenly, he pushes me backwards till my back meets with the wall and he pins me there. What the heck is he doing? I open my mouth to ask him just that but the sudden feel of his lips on mine made the word die in my throat. A voice at the back of my head is telling me to push him away since he is still Cassie's fiancé and he's yet to regain his memories but I couldn't, it's been so long. I shouldn't do this right?
I place my hand on his chest to push him away but instead draw him closer as I open up to him and let him kiss me. It wasn't a tender and sweet kiss but this time around it was a raw and desperate one, I feel my hand going to his chest and I trail each pack on his chest slowly.
He pulls my lowers lips between his teeth as sucks for a while then he breaks the kiss and rest his forehead on mine, his eyes widens as if just realizing what he just did and I expected him to push me away, tell me how much the kiss is a mistake and go back to Cassie but instead his deep ocean blue eyes is gazing directly into my eyes, the look is really piercing and intense.
His eyes trails down from my eyes, to my lips and then stopping at my chest. My heart is pumping against my rib cage triple of its normal speed while I keep on waiting for him to realize that he just kissed a maid. He suddenly picks up the necklace around my neck while studying it intently.
"Princess." He whispers in a quiet voice that I almost didn't hear what he said. My eyes widens as he also raise his head with his brows knit in confusion.
"Princess." He whispers again and we both stare at each other. Does he remember me now?
