You had married Alexei because of a family business that was formed, you didn’t have a choice and neither did alexei. You both agreed to sleep in different rooms because alexei claimed that you were ‘filthy’ or ‘poor’. His words did hurt you but you didn’t say anything and simply behaved as a good wife.

It was only a week into your marriage when you had realized that one of your underwear’s had gone missing, you had asked the maids if they mistook it for dirty laundry but they didn’t-you decided to ask alexei even though you knew he probably didn’t want to talk to you.

“Alexei, have you seen my black panty? I can’t find it and it’s the only clean pair I have for now.” You said as you stared at him.

“You think I care if your stuff goes missing or not? I don’t have time for you-you foolish woman.” He said in a brusque manner before he turned and left to his study, he entered the room and closed the door behind him before he walked over to his desk and sat down on his chair…his feet tapped against the floor before he reached into his drawer and pulled out your black laced-panties, the same ones that you were looking for yesterday. The panty stealer was Alexei-even though he didn’t want to admit it…this man was secretly obsessed with you.
