The Endless Love

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

"Why are you here after so many years??" he asked. I could sense anger.

"I'm here.. And I'll stay here.. Its not your hotel mister" I retorted

He came near me and grabbed my waist. I tried moving back but his strong arms were not allowing me to.

"Please- please leave me," I said helplessly.

"Huh, so now you're scared?" he asked shamelessly.

"Please let me go!"

"Go..but you'll regret what you did Ms. Marie Smith"

"What-whatever.."

He left me and I ran away.

I ran away. He followed me. I couldn't reach the hotel room's door, and he locked the door.

"What's your problem, Mr. Adrien? Did I even say anything???"

"You'll regret what you did three years ago," he said.

He came to me. I started going back. He moved forward. I went back and now I was between the wall and him.

"Now where will you go?"

"You! Leave me!"

"And what If I don't!"

"....." I didn't have an answer. He's so strong. I'm nothing.

"Will you go to your boyfriend?"

"What boyfriend?"

"Don't act like that"

"I don't have anyone, Adrien. Please leave me"

"You know I love you"

"But I don't, Adrien. If you love me then why are you forcing your love on me!"

"I never forced you nor will I ever.."

"Just look at what you're doing right now"

He got away immediately as if he never wanted to force me.

"I'm sorry but I can't take it, Marie," he said in a low tone.

"What can you not take?"

"Loving you and being hated. Loving you and being betrayed" he said and started crying. For the first time, I saw him weak.

"I didn't betray you, Adrien, you did"

"I don't think this is the right time to talk" he said and went away.

I don't know what he's thinking. He betrayed me all these years and now he came and told me he loves me? Even he said that I betrayed him? Is he serious? I should be the one crying. I have no one in this world.

Why did he come so suddenly after complete three years? Did he know... How have I cut these years? Without him, without anyone? And now... He's here forcing his love on me. After what he did... I don't love him anymore. I hate him. I can't love anyone. My belief in love has totally vanished. And it'll never return. Never.
