But when emotions start to blur the lines of duty, Marcus must confront the brutal truth: in a world where power reigns supreme, love may be the ultimate act of rebellion.
Chapter 1 1
"Where are you going on your honeymoon?" An old businessman asked.
"Maybe Maldives." Khyrron answered simply. I just stood by his side and quietly listened to the conversations and smiled when someone greeted me.
Even though I'm not happy, I still give them a sweet smile.
"Congratulations! You two look perfect!" The lady screamed.
I gave her a smile, "Thank you." I said politely.
"Savannah is tired let me excuse ourselves. She's going to rest." Khyrron said goodbye, still looking at me, so I just said goodbye.
I'm also tired from standing here and wearing high heels. I'm not used to it yet!
Khyrron escorted me while walking to his car. The two of us riding in silence. I want to play but I'm nervous about this guy. I think he may not like it so I kept quiet. The silent is to loud!
I can't help but look at my HUSBAND now. His hair is clean cut, eyes are deep blue, perfect nose include his red lips. In short handsome! You can also see his sharp hand that never gets tired of looking at it. And you'll wish to hold it! His suit is perfect for his manly body too! My husband is too handsome but scary.
I guess he noticed that I was looking at him, so when he turned around, he looked straight ahead.
"Tsk. Stop staring." That look was only for a moment but I still felt the cold.
I'm still nervous and wondering whether to answer or just keep quiet? "I d-don't stare." Sh*t!
He just shook his head and parked the car because we had already arrived at his house. He got out and stood on the side of the car next to me. I wasn't even opened!?
"How gentleman my husband is." I murmured with sarcasm. He was just watching and waiting for me to come down. I struggle because of this gown. H*ck won't he even help me here?!
I could feel his annoyance so he just helped me down.
"Stup*d." He murmured but enough to hear. My eyebrows met until I entered our room. Yes really OUR ROOM.
He is facing the mirror and removing his tie. "Change your clothes. In 30 mins we'll go in Maldives. Your clothes are already packed. Move fast." He left the room not knowing where to go.
I didn't bother to shower so I went into the closet to change. I choose my black hoodie pair with a black jeans and black shoes and with my messy bun. That will do.
I was about to go downstairs to look for Khyrron when I met him on the stairs. "Why is that outfit? Are you going to jog?" He asked, eyebrows meeting.
Although surprised and nervous, "I'm c-comfortable with it a-and it's not just for jogging." I answered and looked away.
I don't understand his affection with me. That every time it's close, my heart beats faster and I'm always nervous. Why is that?
He got up and maybe went into the room so I completely went down to the living room. I saw our luggage next to the sofa where I planned to sit.
I turned around and stared at the whole house. I think he doesn't have maids? Or maybe in a day off? His house is big and has this modern design. Even if it's only two floors, it's wide and you know right away that it's rich.
I was busy checking the design of this house when his voice made me jump. I'm always surprised!
He stared at me as if to indicate that I had moved. He took his luggage and stole mine! How ungentleman he is!
I just stood up and took my own luggage. I can't keep up with his fast pace yet.
He turned so I stopped but later continued. He came to me while taking my luggage. "Stupid. Move faster my time is gold." He said then put our luggage inside his car.
I ran to the car and got inside. He's cold hearted and rude but I believe there is a part of him that is kind that he tries to hide.
We were silent while traveling but because I had questions even though I didn't want to speak, I did anyway. "Uhm why do we need to go on a honeymoon?"
He just looked at me but didn't even speak.
"W-well uh you know let's just arrange marriage." I try to explain.
He just looked at me again but didn't say anything! And he gives the look that says 'I rule everything so don't complain.'
I just held my breath. Antino is talking to him. I better keep quiet.
I didn't realize that I fell asleep, I just woke up when I arrived at the airport. I wasn't even woken up to eat, I'm already hungry!
I looked next door but there was no one. I looked around, I saw him outside coming closer to me. And it's already dark.
He opened the door, "Faster get out of the plane and eat." but i'm hungry!
When I got out, he immediately walked towards the private airplane we were going to use. I just ran and walked.
After entering the plane, I immediately looked and paid attention to its design and what else was inside.
A woman with a sweet smile and a sticky look on Khyrron guided us to our seats. I sat on the side near the window.
I thought Khyrron was going to sit down but the woman talked for a while and went somewhere. And I don't care! They go where they want.
After 10 minutes I felt Khyrron's presence but I couldn't hear any sound. I looked at him for a moment and immediately looked down at the food he was holding. I just remembered again that I'm hungry!
I just looked out the window even though I couldn't see anything but darkness because it was night.
He put the food and seat beside me. "Eat." I was still debating whether to eat or not. But the greed of my pet worms prevailed so I started eating them.
Where did they go earlier? What could they have done? who is the girl And they look close!
"Jane's my secretary." I looked at him in wonder. It says? It just sunk in that he read my questions in my mind!
I just nodded. I was surprised again when he stood up and moved his seat.
"Finish your food and sleep. It's 6 hours far from PH to Maldives." I just nodded again. The food is really good huh.
I fell asleep again during the trip and woke up when we were close to where we were going.
I enjoy all the scenery all the way. We are at a luxurious beach resort. We will stay in this beautiful villa. The water is beautiful and relaxing and everything you will want to live here. But sadly it's just 3 days.
Mostly the honeymooners spend weeks in one place, but us? Nevermind, we were just arranged marriages.
I lay down on the soft bed and didn't notice that I fell asleep. Jet lag.
When I woke up I was already covered in blankets. I looked back and remembered that I was already married. I looked at the clock, it's already 1:03 am I think it's morning.
I left the room to find Khyrron. Where is he?
I heard a woman's stifled laugh it's sound familiar. I went out and saw them sitting talking.
Is that name Jane with a smile? While Khyrron was holding the glass with only wine and you could still feel its coldness.
It's our honeymoon and then he brings a girl here? That's why honeymoon hmp!
The moon is bright so I can still see how beautiful the sea is. I just walked straight and ignored the two. It's time for you to go on a honeymoon!
I dipped my feet in the water and I hadn't been there long before someone pulled me upright.
I gasped and held on to the arm of this daring man so I wouldn't fall into the water.
"What the fvck are you doing?! Are you gonna swim their? It's fvcking cold!" It screamed angrily.
"I'm not going swimming! I'm just relaxing." My answer.
He pushed me in before letting go. "It's cold outside." He was about to turn and go back to the chair but I spoke.
"So you guys are out there?"
hey tsk It was like telling me not to mine my own business.
Enjoy!! I hope you marry him!
