Median Hospital “Doctor No! Please, wait! Please...” Her eyes which sparkles like the stars now seemed lifeless as tears rolled down her cheeks, Arya pleaded once again with the doctor to save her mother. “I am sorry miss, without money we won’t be able to operate on her” Arya stood frozen to the ground, she knew it was ridiculous to ask for a free bone marrow surgery but what can she do in this desperate situation. As always life has been so cruel to her, she clenched her fist as the thought of going to ask her father for help flew through her mind, the thought alone enraged her, The very people that made life unbearable for her and her mother are the ones she is forced to ask for help?. “look at this poor girl with her physique she could be mistook for a super model at first glance”. A passer-by murmured “you’re right she looks like a fallen heiress, what a shame such a spec of gold is wasting away in the dust”. their bickering brings her back to reality but she’s unbothered

Arya’s pov I stood by the road waving and not long after a taxi pulled up front, it was a short but relaxing ride, I guess it’s the calm before the storm. Soon we arrived I could swear that my heart palpitation can be heard from miles away, I don’t know what awaits me and that terrified me even more. I braced myself and took slow strides into the building, maybe it’s because of my disarrayed thoughts earlier but now I’m suddenly aware of my surroundings, this place in one word “Exquisite” I blurted out my thought. Still lost in thoughts I heard a voice that zapped me back to reality. “Are you Miss Arya?” “Ah..yes, that’s me” I responded He was a middle aged man and from his looks he seems to fit Bella’s description of the manager. “Alright come with me”. We soon reached a well lit room filled with girls of all body sizes, heights and nature, but in all these differences they all looked exceptionally beautiful. They were all very busy picking out outfits and styling their hai

Arya’s point of view I almost voiced out my irritation at the way he roughly tugged the cloth off my eyes causing my hair to cascade down my shoulders.Already at the climax of my curiosity, I locked his gaze immediately the wrap left my eyes.This man...Is this the man that bought me? He’s.. he’s so handsome, Oh my gosh!.Saying I was spellbound would be an understatement! This man must be a Greek god like in the movies, with his exotic facial features there’s no doubt women swoon all over him, honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if men did too.For short, he’s the perfect description of your dream idol. From his sharp jawline and high nose bridge to his masculine broad shoulders and long slender legs all screaming perfection.Although I wouldn’t have pictured him for the type who buys girls at an auction especially with this stoic expression of his, plus he could get any woman he wants!Well, it’s as they say, you can’t judge a book by its cover, tsk.All these thoughts running throu

Arya’s pov Unfathomable emotions washed over my features as I stared at the groom’s name column on the certificate. “Mr. Nicklaus Harrington”.How did I get involved with the most dreaded and dangerous man in M country and undoubtedly the world?Oh my gosh! I instantly regretted my previous actions. A man that is known for his brutal nature and ruthless actions in the business world, rumors have it that he’s a mafia and a tyrant of the underworld, the most merciless one at that. Is the supposed man I’m getting married to? What do I do?.“What’re you doing? Sign the papers”. His deep voice interrupted my dilemma while I batted my eye lids continuously to get back my composure, but all to no avail as my face grew pale white seeming like all blood has drained from it.I stood there frozenly rotted to the ground not being able to utter a response or take action. Am I making the right decision? So many questions but no forthcoming answer. I bit on my lower lip subconsciously, my ha

Arya’s povThe first person that came to view immediately we stepped into the dinning section was a young lady seemingly around my age, I caught her reaction when she noticed our ambiguous posture and how she fought hard to keep her composure while twitching her lips upwards into a forced smile that gradually turned to a wide grin revealing all her dentures.She approached us with a burst of enthusiasm or rather she approached Nicklaus as she completing ignored my existence and tried bridging her way to give Nicklaus a peck that didn’t get a chance to reach his cheeks as he tossed her aside with a swing of his unoccupied arm and headed straight for our seats leaving her forced to flash another half-hearted smile.I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her, she’s just a poor sister craving her brother’s love, did he really have to push her like that? So heartless. Although I felt their relationship was kinda strange but this was a family dinner after all, if she wasn’t his sister then who
