Chapter One: Kendra
“Have a seat, Kendra.” I slowly sat down on the brown leather chair opposite my father’s large mahogany desk. I had never liked its brown shade. It was so dark, almost black. There was a man that I didn’t know sitting right in front of me.He seemed familiar, but I didn’t know who he was, or if I had ever seen him before. He was staring at me, as if he was studying my every move.You only needed one glance to know how handsome he was. His tanned skin glowed under the yellow light of the room. His chocolate brown hair looked so soft.I tried not to stare at him and glanced once again at my father. I didn’t like coming to his office. It was a dull place that sucks the soul out of my body.All my unpleasant childhood memories took place here. Just being here made my skin itch, and comfort would only found me after I left.“What’s going on?” I just wanted to get it over with. I wanted to know what he wanted from me before I found my way out.“Kendra, I want you to meet Declan Davenport.” M

Chapter Two: Kendra
I knew that I was going to pay for what I had done downstairs, but I didn’t give a damn. I had made the decision a long time ago that I wasn’t going to give in, and no matter what John Hazelwood did, I wasn’t going to let him break me.Five minutes after I made it to my room, my door flew open while I was sitting on the bed, and I let out a gasp as I jumped in my place.His face was red with fury, and I gulped as I braced for impact. I was about to receive a few new bruises that I knew I had to cover.The two of us had never been close, but everything got worse after Mom’s death.

Chapter Three: Declan
I watched her as she scurried away to my car. I didn’t expect her to listen to me, but I was glad she did. I was aware that my future wife was stubborn as hell, and honestly, I liked that she had a backbone.I pulled out my wallet, took a hundred-dollar bill, and left it on the table before dragging that asshole of a boyfriend—ex-boyfriend by his arm.“Let go of me!” He tried to get away from me, but my grip was stronger. What the hell did she see in him? He didn’t seem like a good fit for her.“It feels terrible to be grabbed against your will, doesn’t it?” I snapped, slamming his back against a brick wall. “You’re going to forget about her. If you text, call, or try to meet her, you’re going to wish you had never been born.”He tried to fix his clothes and act unbothered by what I had just said, but I knew better. “Are you threatening me?” I chuckled at his foolishness. Only the weak resorted to threats. I was a man of action.“I’m not. I’m telling you what will happen if you come n

Chapter Four: Kendra
I looked at myself one last time in the mirror and smiled, liking the way I looked. My auburn hair was pulled back from my face and fell down my back in soft curls with two strands framing my face. My champagne-colored dress hugged the upper part of my body before falling nicely into an A-line skirt. My favorite part about it was the studded cape. It gave the dress an elegant touch. I walked out of my room and made my way downstairs, knowing Declan was going to be here in less than fifteen minutes. I sighed upon seeing Amanda downstairs, standing in a red sequin dress. “Oh, this dress is so… you,” she said, eyeing me up and down. “Was I supposed to put on a dress that is so… you?” I raised one eyebrow. I knew that she had picked a bright dress on purpose. She had always liked to outshine me in any of my occasions, and honestly, I didn’t give a damn about her. “I bet it would have been a better choice,” she giggled, causing me to roll my eyes. If there was an award for the most an

Chapter Five: Declan
We arrived at the venue where the engagement ceremony was held. I decided to drive us tonight because I wanted to talk freely with her without the pressure of having my driver listening to our conversation. He had already signed an NDA the moment he started working for me, but I still wanted to make sure that she was comfortable enough to say whatever she wanted.“Do you have my other ring?” she casually asked as we walked side by side.“Is it valuable to you?” I wondered.“You’re a fan of answering my questions with questions, aren’t you?” Her eyes met mine, and I noticed how beautiful they were. They were hazel with green flecks around the iris. I was glad that she decided to go for a dark shade of eyeshadow because it made the color of her eyes pop. “It winds you up when I do that, doesn’t it?” She tried to hide her smile as she looked to the other side, but I still managed to catch a quick glimpse of it.“My best friends got it for me as a graduation gift,” she finally answered.

Chapter Six: Kendra
My engagement party was rather boring for my best friends’ taste, so they decided to celebrate my engagement in their own way. We were going to party tonight. Honestly, I needed that outing because I wanted to dance my stress away.I was certain that spending the night with my friends would take my mind off a lot of things. I had informed them at home that I was going to sleep over at Joelle’s place, knowing that there would be no objections. They wanted to get rid of me in any way, so staying the night at my best friend’s place was a great opportunity for them to get rid of me for a little while.“This dress looks amazing on you!” Tia grinned, making me giggle. It wasn’t something I usually wore, but it was fit for the night.It was a sequin, form-fitting black dress that stopped at my mid-thighs. I loved the way it sparkled, as it gave party vibes. It had long sleeves with an off-the-shoulder neckline with a slightly deep V-shape, showing my collarbones. I bought it a long time ag

Chapter Seven: Kendra
The rose gold dress I had on made me feel beautiful. It took me a while to find the perfect dress for the date, and I didn’t know why, but I wanted to look extra good. Declan was supposed to be here in ten minutes, if not less. I didn’t know how that date was going to be like, but part of me was excited for it. Maybe because I wanted to know the man I was going to marry in less than two months.“Where are you going?” Amanda asked me when I reached the bottom of the stairs.“None of your business,” I replied, walking away from her.“Do you know that Dad got me a new diamond necklace worth more than a hundred thousand dollars?” That was a typical move. Amanda liked to flaunt the things Dad showered her with and never thought about giving me.“Good for you.” I didn’t give her the satisfaction she wanted. Even if I was hurt, I wasn’t going to show her that.I didn’t know where father and Abigail were, and honestly, I couldn’t care less. If I woke up one day and found out that they had d

Chapter Eight: Declan
“I do.” Kendra’s voice was soft, and the look on her face spoke a billion words. She was incredibly nervous, and honestly, I couldn’t blame her. She was getting married to a guy she barely knew. “I now pronounce you husband and wife,” the officiant declared. “You may now kiss the bride.” I gently pulled Kendra toward me. She closed her eyes, preparing herself for the kiss. I placed my hand on the small of her back and closed my eyes the moment my lips met hers. I thought our kiss would be more of a brush, but as our lips met, I realized that I didn’t want to let go. She tasted so good, like her lips were made to be kissed by no one else but me. When she moved away from me, her cheeks looked more pink, causing me to smirk. She looked adorable when she blushed. Our reception was a blur. I danced with Kendra three times, and she spent most of the evening dancing with her best friends. I think their presence made the entire day easier for her. I wasn’t surprised when I found o

Chapter Nine: Kendra
I had been married to Declan Davenport for ten days, and I still couldn’t bring myself to accept that. We didn’t go on a honeymoon because he was busy with launching a new project.It wasn’t like I wanted to go on one anyways. Honeymoons were reserved for those who were in love, and we weren’t.However, I had to say that Declan was incredibly nice to me. He was so nice that I sometimes found myself wondering if this was all an act, and he had an ulterior motive.It was Saturday already, and I made a rule when I first started working as a freelancer that Saturdays were for myself, and I wouldn’t work on them. Since I didn’t have anything to do, I decided to bake something. I liked to bake from time to time, and it had been a while since I last baked something.I was in my room all morning, lying down on my new comfortable bed. The room Declan had given me was perfect. I only ordered a few things online to make it more welcoming and personal, but it was elegant in its own way.I liked h

Chapter Ten: Kendra
For the past day, I had been thinking about what happened with Declan, and to say that I had been restless ever since then would be an understatement.I was wrong.He had been trying to be nice to me, and I did my best to shut him out, but as I thought about it, I realized that if I continued acting like that, this would harm both of us.Maybe I needed to let go a little. We were going to spend three years with each other, so it didn’t make sense to live them in constant bickering.I turned off my laptop and took a deep breath. I needed to talk to him and try to explain my feelings. I couldn’t say that I hated Declan because he hadn’t done anything to deserve my hate; however, I hated the circumstances of how we met.I might have actually liked Declan a lot if we had met in a different way. I found myself wondering one night how it would have been if I had met him at a café or a party and he had asked me out on a date.But life didn’t always give us what we wanted, and I learned to ma
