Chapter # 3

Raymond POV:-

After giving the beautiful news to Violet to which she ran away upon hearing, I left with saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you Ma'am.” I was about to leave but then I remembered and turned to her again, “Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you one thing."

"What is it?" Mrs Cadhill asked.

"Well… There is going to be a press conference the day after tomorrow, can Violet join it?"

"I am sorry, but she doesn't like these things."

"I understand. Then tell her to watch it. She needs to knows to answer which question and when." I explained

"I see. I'll tell her." She nodded.

"Okay..Good Day Ma'am." I left knowing Violet must be fuming with anger by now but it’s the longest her mother can make me go, I gave her the time of the limit of my patience, I cannot wait longer than three weeks. I don’t like waiting.

2 Day Later

I was sitting in the conference hall being held in my own house. I need to think of the answers that satisfy both my sister and the media. The conference starts and people start asking questions,

"When do you meet?"

"Almost 3 years ago" Lying in a swift manner is a trait of mine.

"How do you meet?"

"I went to buy some sweets for my sister, there I saw her." Now that’s the truth.

"When did you realize your feelings?"

"It was a love at first sight."

"When you confessed to her?"

"1 year after meeting her."

"What do you like the most about her?"

"The way she talks"

"Why isn't she here?"

"She doesn't like press conferences, she's pretty shy."

After a while, and a flood of questions, it ended. As soon as it ended Celine called me,

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" She yelled, almost making me deaf.

"She doesn't want to." I lied again.

"Oh!I see.... BY THE WAY I AM COMING TO SEE MY SISTER IN LAW!" She yelled again.

"Stop yelling! I can hear you just fine." I said agitated. How can she be so cheery and loud all the time?

"Oh sorry I just got so excited, hehehe. Oh my God, You are getting married. Yay!" She is so enthusiastic.

"Okay then, When are you coming?" I asked

"Maybe tomorrow..."

"I see.."

"OKAY! SEE YOU!"

"See You." I cut the call.

Violet POV:-

How dare he!? I am shy!? Like hell! I am so infuriated right now. I just want to punch that shit. He thinks he can twist reality as if it’s a clay the way he wants. Telling nothing but lies/ How dare he- Wait a minute, outside a bakery… Bakery… The guy I met on Mum’s birthday. The guy I bumped into and my cake fell. It was him!? Oh god, How fate can be so cruel? I was extremely rude with him, how could he feel attracted to me in a few seconds? It has to be a lie. A moment of anger and coincidence cannot decide my future like this.

I gritted my teeth.

Not just that my brother was so happy when he heard that i am getting married. As for me I am anything but happy about it. I don’t know what to do anymore.

2 Days later

I was laying on my bed because of the news of me getting married. No ,the news of Raymond Smith getting married spread around the world like a rapid fire.Thanks goodness no one knew about me and he didn’t even tell anyone as well. But still people who knew, they started nagging me. How am I supposed to tell them about the person even I don't know?

Urgh!

My thoughts were interrupted as my mum entered the room.

"Honey..." She began to say.

"Yes mum?" I said sitting up.

"His sister is dying to meet you. They are coming over for dinner tonight..."

"What!?" I asked hoping that she would change her statement but no.

"Yes dear… be ready.."

"I won't," I declared.

She sighed and start again

"Listen. His sister doesn't know about him forcing you to marry him. She also believes that media story."

"So?" I don't know where this is going.

"So .. he requested you to act as a couple just for today.."

"No way in hell!"

"I told him that you won’t. So don't worry about it." I smiled at my mother. She knows me. My mother always does this, Telling me after doing things.

"Oh mum..." I chuckled. He is even deceiving her sister.

Dinner time

I was watching TV with Kenneth,mum called us. Me and Kenneth looked back and saw Raymond with his sister. Raymond was glaring at me. I gulped from fear as his eyes were sending daggers towards me, knowing all too well I went against his orders- why would I anyways? Both me and Kenneth stood up .Kenneth greeted Raymond politely.

Raymond POV:-

I took Celine to meet my beloved wife at her home for today's dinner. Even though I told her mother to get her ready but still she didn't listen to her. I saw her wearing her casual shirt with a trouser. I glared at her as she stiffened seeing me. Why does she always choose the hard way? Celine ran toward her and hugged her as her brother come toward me,

"Hello Nice to Meet you, Sir."He said politely. Even her brother has more manners, unlike her.

"Hey There. What's your name young man?"I asked him, even though I know his name is Kenneth.

"Kenneth Cadhill. Please take care of my Sister." He said sincerely.

"I will." I also replied sincerely, but I am also not going to hesitate to teach her some manners.

Meanwhile my sister was killing my future wife with her hug. I cleared my throat as she let her go and began to yell as always,

"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! BROTHER IS GETTING MARRIED! I LOVE YOUR SIMPLICITY! YOU'RE PERFECT FOR HIM!! YOU TOO LOOK CUTE TOGETHER!!"

"Lower your voice Celine she can hear you just fine" I told her, but she goes on rambling,

"Brother didn't even tell me. But still I am happy for both of you! I hope you guys live HAPPILY EVER AFTER! !I AM SO HAPPY!!"

"Nice to meet you too," Violet said to her with a smile, giving Celine a weird look.

After that we all went to have dinner as I smirked at Violet who glared at me, I spoke up again,

"What Happened Violet? Do you want to talk about something?"

"I want to." She said nonchalantly, hitting my nerves.

"Can you come over at our place?" Celine asked.

"No.She can't." her mother said.

"Why?"Celine asked again.

"Celine If Ma'am has said that she won’t, then she wont. Got it?" I told her strictly.

"Okay.." She said with a pout. Oh don't worry sister she is gonna live with Your Brother forever...

After dinner, Me and Violet went to the rooftop as Celine, being a 20 year old kid began to play video games with that 15 year old Kenneth.

When we went to the rooftop, Violet began to yell at me,

"Who do you think you are?! We met two years ago, love at first sight!? You are an asshole keeping people in a deception. I rather die than to be with you!" I hate how she emphasized on the word You. It made me mad. Yes, I am a heartless bastard. Not making others around me but myself to live in falsehood.

"Violet. Lower your voice." I ordered her in a stern voice. Disobey me this time and I shall show you what comes next. I am not kind enough to let go of things a second time.

Suddenly she gasped at me with fear. My voice invoked fright in her. Good. But her, being a fearless woman, she took a deep breath and spoke up again.

"Look… I hate you from the depth of my soul, being with you is like a nightmare. Don’t destroy both mine and your life. I will never love you." She lowered her voice but her words hurt me. But mostly, it enraged me.

I took a dangerous step towards her and grabbed her arms and turned her around as my chest was pressed against her back. I snake my left hand to her waist as my other hand held her neck. I leaned and inhaled her sweet intoxicating scent, feeling her quivers at the same time. I moved my face to her shoulder and brushed my lips over her delicate skin, feeling her goosebumps which gave me endless rapture.

“I don’t care about love Violet. I want you, I will get you.” I let out a suppressed laugh. “Besides, You don’t want to live in my house as a plaything… do you?” She gulped and shook her head no. “Good Girl.” I smiled. She exhaled and said, “You are a devil. So heartless. I cannot even imagine spending a second with someone like you.” She spoke in a low voice as I began to say in a threatening tone with my grip getting tighter around her,

"Listen Violet… You are testing my patience and if I lost them..." I move to her ears and continued huskily,

"You'll regret it… Got it?" Terror was written all over her face, my words are breaking her last ray of hope and bravery but still I don't know how; how can she show such courage even after being scared. She pushed me away and said,

"GET THE HELL LOST" Now I've lost it. I pinned her harshly to the nearest wall, she was petrified.

"If you think that you are being brave then you are wrong. You are just making it harder just for yourself." I told her angrily as I pin both of her hands above her and began to bite her neck harshly, leaving my mark. Marking her for the first time. She was marked for the first time and it’s mine- indicating she is mine.

She tried to struggle but my strength is far greater than hers.Finally she broke down and began to plead,

"please..stop.." She whispered, not being able to hold up her facade anymore.

"Tell me what I want to hear" I told her and began to bite her again.

"I am sorry" she whispered again.

"Hmm? I cannot hear you." I said tightening my grip on her hands, pressing myself upon her.

"I am sorry Raymond. Please forgive me." Upon speaking it, a tear rolled down her cheek, letting out a soft sob. But I was in the melody her voice produced by calling my name. I loved how my name rolled off her delicate lips as if they are made only to call my name. Just hearing her calling my name makes me feel that strange sensation in my heart.

"Say my name again."I said in a husky voice, moving away and loosening my grip from her.

"Raymond.." She murmured. Oh how much I love it.

"Good." I said as I got away and went down . Eventually we left and she didn’t dare to piss me off after it.
