His Defiant Bride Kidnapped
Thea's head felt as if it was going to split in pain as she began to regain her consciousness. She groaned and tried to shift wondering why she was having another hangover when she didn't even remember drinking. That's when the memory of her last moment of consciousness hit her brutally like a slap.Thea opened her eyes frantically looking around her. In a panicked move that did nothing but kick her back to the concrete ground with a hard thud as her hands remained tied behind her back unable to do anything to block the impact.The air got knocked from her lungs and she gritted her teeth looking around her trying to distinguish where she was only to hear a voice from near her."Hey... It's okay, don't move abruptly,"Thea turned around and felt her eyes well up with tears as she looked into the blue eyes she had been trying so hard to avoid for more than a month."What happened?" She asked as she tried to sit up this time succeeding as she maneuvered herself up."We were kidnapped. I
His Defiant Bride My Life For Yours
“You didn’t answer my question,” Lucian said in the same calm tone as if this man hadn’t just threatened to violate her in front of him. “Who. Is. Behind. You” Lucian enunciated each word coming out of his mouth.Thea’s eyes moved away from the sight before her to look at Lucian’s hands. They were clenched in tight fists that she could distinguish through the darkness. She didn’t need to doubt whether or not Lucian was provoked by this man’s words. Because she could feel the rage coursing through his tight muscles ready to spring out at a moment’s notice.The man paused looking at Lucian with a blank face, the smile completely gone as he looked at him. Thea thought for a moment that he was going to turn violent when he simply asked.“Why? Are you going to pay me more than them?” He asked.Thea felt instant relief when the man said that, if he could be convinced with money, then…“If we can reach a deal,” Lucian answered, and the man smirked.Something was wrong, seriously wrong.

His Defiant Bride Second Chance
For a while, it was quiet. An absolute quietness that was both peaceful and disturbing. There were moments like flashes when voices would reach her sometimes calling her name and sometimes talking amongst each other. But she was never able to pull through long enough to truly know what was going on.It was by the time that her awareness grew more alert when she heard them. The two distinct voices she knew so well.“How could you let this happen?! How could you when she was right beside you?!”“When are you going to stop blaming others for your own problems? You lost Thea because you acted like you could control her. Stop trying to blame me and start trying to figure out how to redeem yourself!”These words were followed by the distinct sound of a slap. And even in her sleep, Thea would later realize what truly went on that day.“…”“Are you alright?” Another voice asked.“Yeah… can you go check on him?”The silence that followed after that was deafening. Thea tried shifting her hand a
His Defiant Bride End
“Oh lord…” Thea mumbled as she closed her eyes looking down at the book in her hands barely seeing the words.“Did you say something?” Lucian asked as he leaned forward on the kitchen counter to look at her.“No, nothing,” she said with a smile, and he nodded, going back to preparing whatever it is that he was preparing.Thea stole another glance at him, feeling her heartbeat faster at the sight of him in his unbuttoned shirt and waistcoat hugging his muscles in a perfect fit that made her almost swoon. It had been like this since she got back from the hospital, so much that it had gotten unbearable.At first, Lucian was simply more attentive, especially since she was having trouble dealing with the pain from moving around. He had been adamant about not leaving her alone to the point of intending to sleep on the chair bestie her!In the end, he slept the whole night on the bed beside her on top of the covers when she insisted that he shouldn’t sleep on the chair. He didn’t touch her n
His Defiant Bride Introduction
“Will you marry me?” Lucian asked with an intense look that made her heart skip a beat for a moment. “Wh- *cough*” Thea coughed as she tried to clear her air pipes. She probably shouldn’t have gasped while drinking water but her shock got the better of her. Did Lucian just propose to her?! “Here…” He said handing her a napkin. Avoiding his intoxicating gaze, she wiped her mouth and tried to compose herself. Her heart was still racing as she looked back up at his beautiful, blue gaze again. Why did the damned man have to be so handsome? And very much her type… “What did you just say?” She asked, inwardly congratulating herself for sounding normal this time. “I asked you if you would be willing to marry me?” He said again, his husky voice sending waves of pleasure down her spine. “Uh, I don’t understand. Why would you ask me this? Leave dating alone, we’ve only known each other for about a week or so…” She said, wondering what had gotten into the man all of a sudden. “I wonder
His Defiant Bride From Bad to Worse
A few days earlier“That would be all for today. Don’t forget your homework. And please start preparing early for the midterms,” Thea said as she watched her students hurriedly exit the classroom with a smile.They were always in a hurry at this time of day, heading out to avoid the lunch rush in restaurants only to fall right into it.When Thea had to deal with her first year students, she was always aware of how difficult it was for them to go through the course load in the beginning, which is why she tended to go easy on them. After all, biology is a deceptively complicated subject.But now that the midterms were close she knew that she had to step up her game a little bit, hence her hungry and sugar deprived students at the end of each session.Thea slowly gathered her materials, closed her laptop, and headed up to her office.Just as she was about to walk into her office, she was intercepted by the figure of a woman with fluffy red curls dancing everywhere and a pen stuck into th
His Defiant Bride Unpleasant Encounter

She was so taken aback with shock that she remained rooted there watching their disgusting scene.All of a sudden, Thea felt bile rise in her stomach and she wanted to throw up. She fought hard against it refusing to give the girl the satisfaction of seeing a reaction from her.In another exaggerated fit of bad acting.

His Defiant Bride Memories and Surprises
“Oh my god! I knew that man was a jerk!” Pen said through the phone and Thea sighed.“Don’t rub it in, Pen…” She told her friend who remained silent for a moment probably realizing how pissed off Thea must be.“What are you planning to do anyway?” Pen asked.“Nothing… As long as he doesn’t make a scene…” Thea answered feeling more tired and dizzy than before.“You sound tired…” Pen said.“I am… I just want to go back home.” Thea lied as she tried to sound as normal as possible.In truth, she felt a lot worse than tired. She felt queasy.“Do you want me to drive you back?”“You still have a lecture and besides you weren’t going back home until late tonight?” Thea said,“I do. But you’re more important than that…”“Thanks, but I will be fine.” Thea said with a smile, “I can drive myself home and we can have a girl’s night tomorrow. You can listen to me rant about my jerk of an ex as we drink tequila shots.”“Sounds like a plan!” Pen said slowly sounding worried, “Call me if you need any
