Naya’s POVI sat unmoving in front of the overly decorated vanity mirror, allowing the young maidens who looked a little too eager to comb through my hair and pamper my face with things that made me uncomfortable.They were slowly dolling me up and I was quickly beginning to fall in love with what they were doing to my face and body but I wasn’t in a good mood.I couldn’t be… especially in a situation like this.The only thing which had gotten me so worked up was the fact that I was being decorated for a ceremony that I wasn’t in support of.I had always envisioned looking this great on my wedding with the love of my life and not with an unfeeling handsome young man who in a way reminded me of my father.As soon as they were done with my make up and my hair, they happily helped me into the big white wedding dress that my father had gotten specially for this occasion and stepped away to allow me look into the mirror.They expected me to gasp and croon about how I looked like some hormo

Naya’s POVAs soon as I stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my head and another wrapped around my chest, I knew that there was something wrong.I squinted into the dark room frantically and began tapping on the wall for any signs of the light switch but I couldn’t find any.I could sense a presence in the room but due to how dark it was in here, I couldn’t say exactly where the person was or what they wanted to do to me.Thoughts of Zach and his father trying to take me out now that I was already in their den struck me but I quickly shrugged it off because Zach’s father was a man of honor and wouldn’t lure me here just to kill me.“But what about Zach?” I questioned myself and felt my breath hitch in my chest because I knew I didn’t trust Zach enough.Zach didn’t look or seem as honorable as his father and in fact, behaved exactly like a child that my own father had borne.He was just as dishonorable.“Who is there?!” I shouted into the darkness and was met with si

NAYA'S P.O.V.I felt the familiar sting of tears as Zade pulled the last piece of glass from my arm. I was too shocked to say anything sassy to him, he was also helping me so that was a point in for him. I guess maybe he wasn't that bad. I tried to suck in a breath through my nose, but my lungs felt constricted. It all happened so fast, one moment I was sitting, the next something was breaking and tearing my skin. I didn't know who he was or what he wanted, but there was a man. I could barely see his face because he had a cloth covering his face like an assassin."What the hell made you think you could freaking break a window for no reason?!" Zade snapped as I stayed silent."Zade you need to calm down and let..." he cut the elderly doctor off, and moved from me like I burned him. Can’t say I was disappointed."Calm down? She hasn't even been here for less than a few hours, and she's already causing a lot of trouble. Damn it! I should have done it when I had the chance to!" His voice

Zach's POV"Don't. Zach, even if you're the last man on earth and I needed to be saved, I'd rather die than let you touch me." Naya's words continued ringing in my head, as I quietly got off her.Normally, something like that wouldn't have hurt me at all, but I didn't know why that particular sentence of hers was hurting me so much.I didn't show the hurt that I was feeling on my face, I only let out a small sigh before leaving her alone with her thoughts in my room.The next few months in my life are going to be the longest months of my life, I can already feel it.When I left the room, I started walking slowly to the dinner room. I wasn't interested in having dinner at all, because I knew that things were going to be awkward between Naya and I.She is one of the weirdest women I have ever met. It's weird.I started walking really fast, and I was in the dining room in no time.My father was already seated there, and with the way he was scanning everywhere with his eyes, I didn't thin

Zach's POV Father really shouldn't have asked that question, not because of Naya, but because of me! I was sure that he definitely knew that I had no plans whatsoever with Naya, and I wasn't planning to have one, but even with that, he still went on to ask the irrelevant question. The moment the words left his mouth, I noticed that the aura in the room changed, and the atmosphere became...thicker. It was so weird and awkward, and I wondered what was wrong. I moved my eyes towards Naya, and I could see how scared she looked. Her brothers too looked angry. I guessed it could have been that she didn't tell them about her marriage, or something deeper than that. I knew that it was a family problem, when she excused herself from the table. I wanted to follow her, but when I saw that her brothers followed her almost immediately, I just knew that it was something serious.
