"Don't worry, you will get used to it." He said without looking at me.
"And what if I don't?" I asked timidly. He stopped eating and looked at me. My heart skipped a beat by his icy gaze.
“You will, I am here for you.” He reassured me but his eyes were concealed by those thick walls of darkness and I cannot encrypt what emotions he is trying to show me.
“Don’t overthink. Just relax, okay?” His normal self seems intimidating to me. I gulped by his piercing gaze over mine, taking over my senses.
“I.. I..” I tried to speak but he put his hand over mine and I felt startled, averting my gaze, I pulled my hand back.
"I-I have eaten.. Can I go to sleep?" I asked, tugging my hair behind my ear and l
Tyler POV:- I love it when she does those little gestures like this, it makes me feel exhilarated to know that she does sweet little things for me. My heart felt serene and unbelievably delighted to see her smile upon seeing me off for work or waking me up. “Ah.. I just love her devotion as my wife. She is the dream I was dying to live and never wake up from.” I murmured to myself. “Your frenzy towards her was always clear.” Christian nodded as we were at the bar. “She is the water to my fire, the ending to the never ending cycle of anguish of my life. Argh, Man, I don’t have words to explain.” I grinned, curling my hands in a fist. To show how I have grasped her in my palm. “Just make sure to save yourself before it’s too late.” He said, taking a sip of his drink. “After countless tries, here I am finally being hers and there's nothing in this world which can stop her from being mine. I won’t let anything pull us apart.” I enunciated sternly. “Just make sure this doesn’t de
"Am I that bad?" "No! Tyler it's not you. It's me.. I.. don't like the fact.. How I came into your life as a burden.. I am just forced-" "Enough. Don't you dare to speak further rubbish about yourself.” I was furious to hear the perspective she held about herself. “You are my wife, You have all the rights over me. Make sure nothing like this ever crosses your mind." I said in a voice louder than a whisper and filled with fury because her words never fail to break the last peak of tranquility. ‘It kills me when she; the person I made so much effort to have said this.’ “I am all yours, what are you so insecure about?” Oblivious of the fact how much I love her and what she means to me, she kept talking about things like this. I looked at her infuriated, daring her to speak any more of this shit. "It's the problem of rights." She whispered. “What?” Tears brimmed in her eyes and lowered her head while holding the hem of her dress, barely controlling her fears and dismay wh
Candice POV:- ‘Everything is going beautifully well in my life, I never thought my fragmented fate would be so flawless.’ “I can’t believe my fate.” It was a mesmerizing symphony intertwining my heart with Tyler and I want to entangle myself in it more. “I am happy for you.” Rufus replied as we were on call. “I have no intention of breaking this unrealistic life of mine- filled with immense love.” I chuckled. “I hope no one steals this from you.” He said sincerely. How the winds of love are swaying me and blinding me in the sight of adoration, going in the depths of endearment. “I never thought my life would take such an unexpectedly arresting turn. What a turn my life has taken, I have become his after breaking my bonds with the world. I don’t know where this story of love left me but it has become my salvation.” I chuckled, not knowing what nonsense I have been spouting. ‘Ah, ever since our kiss. Everything seems so perfect.’ But, in the midst of an accidental bond forged wi
“And good his type of girls gave him, huh?” I shrugged, standing beside Tyler. “In the end, ‘I’ will become his wife.” I smiled, wrapping my arms around his shoulder. “I was just saying.” She laughed off nervously. “Candice Moretti. I hope this type of girl will remember it.” I mocked with my smile still plastered over my lips. “Of course.” She said with anger burning in her eyes. She then excused herself and left. After she left I sighed and began to mutter. “Tyler, don’t you think I was rude? She was your business partner, I shouldn’t have talked to her like this. I can apologize to her if you say so. Maybe I should. I-” Tyler chuckled and pulled me close, “What? I am serious.” I said angrily. “Candice.. You are cute.” He chuckled again and pinched my cheeks. “Candice… you are my wife. There’s no need for you to apologize to anyone. Here, if you don't speak for yourself, they will trample over you.” He tried to make me understand. I looked at him innocently and gave
Filled with extreme anxiety which evoked a sensation of contempt in me. In the midst of high status people who are ready to judge a low girl’s existence. “This feels like a dream.” I whispered to Tyler.Me, who was never in the eye of anyone is now the center of their discussion and the only thing they have to talk about is-‘How can Tyler marry someone like me?’“You are my dream.” He whispered back. Even though Tyler is a supportive husband, I still feel insecure. I know I shouldn’t pay attention to the words of people but the shred of stupid dignity inside me is hurt by their words.“I still cannot believe I am your wife.” I said shyly.My distressed gaze looked around to see but then I felt a hand over mine. I raised my gaze and saw Tyler, “Me too.”He said sincerely as we began to eat in silence while he was giving my hand an assuring squeeze. My racing heartbeat gradually slowed down. A sudden wave of serenity washed over me. I gained some courage to be myself and not feel i
Tyler POV:-“What’s your name, Miss?” I asked, intrigued, as the urge to know her got the best of me.“Why do you even want to know?” She narrowed her eyes at me in annoyance. “Nothing just..” I trailed off nervously, scratching the back of my neck. She was about to leave but I called her again.“Please. I just want to know your name.” I almost pleaded with her. She stopped in her tracks and turned to me. She sighed and shook her head, “I know you will not leave me unless you know it… Candice.. My name is Candice Whale.” She frowned and left.This memory always brings a smile to my face. It’s a source of salvation for me. “Ah.. It never gets old, George.” I breathed out in mesmerization.“I wasn’t interested in eavesdropping but I couldn’t help but to listen to her talk and when I saw her, I instantly fell for her and swore to make her mine one day.” I mumbled with a smile.“Unexpected turns always come in life.” He smiled and I nodded in response.And now when I have her, I cannot
“P-Please f-forgive me, Mr M-Moretti..” His begging sound reached my ears as my eyes cascaded down to see him crawling beneath my feet. I put my one leg over the other and leaned back, watching my men beating him up.“I-I am so sorry. I-I didn’t know she was your w-wife..” I then took out my gun and motioned my men to bring him close. I brushed the tip over his sweaty forehead, he was breathless, sweat mixed with tears gleamed down. I love indulging in this, every reaction I drew out from each victim, gave me pleasure.“You know what?” I began to say with my voice dangerously low as I moved the gun down to his neck, “I have asked Candice where you touched her..”“I-I didn’t do it on purpose… Please spare me some mercy, Mr Moretti..” He cried, trying to get out of their grasp. I stared down at him devoid of any emotion and put the gun over his hand, “From here…” I whispered and moved it slowly to his neck, feeling the shivers his body created, the horror engraved in his mind.“All
I was stiff upon hearing it. My heart skipped a beat in dread, a shallow breath escaped my lips. “You can’t be serious.” My lips began to quiver along with the terror. I began to pant as tears brimmed in my eyes. What he was trying to say was clear to me and I can’t tell Tyler about my past.‘I am scared. I can’t lose him.’ “How can you say this?” He can’t threaten me for what he promised my Mother to never speak of and now he is blackmailing me for money. He is a devil. A tear fell from my eye as I stumbled back.“Candice is my sister! No need to bring brother Nicolas in every matter!” Rufus yelled. But I, who was lost in the depth of the abyss which held nothing but agony, couldn’t speak or react.“Choice is yours Candice. Either get me the money or tell your beloved everything- what you are not ready to tell because your relationship is on a thin line and can break easily.” My grip on the doorknob tightened, my heart clenched, I closed my eyes as a tear fell on my cheek. I l
