LUCAS POV “It seems it isn't going to stop raining anytime soon.” I said, walking out of the bedroom as she placed our clothes into our travel bags. She lifted her head, gave me a smile and continued.“Yeah I think so, we should get drenched in the rain, what do you think?”“I think it's delirious so get on with what you're doing it's a no for both of us.” She giggled and I found myself staring at her face then her lips. Why didn't I notice her beauty before now? It felt like I'd been dreaming for a while.“We should play a game when you're done.” I said and settled on the couch for work. I had tons of things to do so the earlier I start, the better for me. “What kind of game?”“Hurry up and you'll find out.She settled next to me, folding her legs up to her chin as her eyes focused on the screen of my laptop. “So what kind of game are we on to?”“Truth or dare.” She burst out laughing and it was so magnetic, I found myself smiling with her. “Are we in highschool or something?” She a

ALLYSA'S POV I ordered dinner and as we sat to eat, I wondered how our lives would be when we get back home. “Allysa?” He called.“Yeah, you need something?” I asked trying to sound normal. The issue from earlier on had taken a toll on me, I still couldn't believe he saw our marriage as a charade till now. “I want us to live cordially when we get back home, no issues, a mutual understanding and__”“And what?” I fired, already getting angry.“Are you angry at me?” He asked and I scoffed. The saying men are so ignorant isn't a fallacy, he's definitely dumb and ignorant.“Did you piss me off?” I asked, glaring at him as he raised his hands in the air. “Now I'm more convinced I did something terribly wrong, did I__”“Can you quit it? I'll behave cordially because of my sanity and not because you asked.“Thanks anyway.” He replied.Later that night, I stood in the bathroom my phone in my hand as I contemplated on calling mom. Talking to her at any point in time eases my anguish, tension,

LUCAS POV Jack and I walked into the boardroom with our hopes held high. “I really hope we secure this deal, it'll skyrocket our business and in no time we'll be the best in the world.The door opened and two guys walked in, leading an older looking man who seems to be in his fifties. “You must be Lucas.” The man said, walking up to me with a smile and his out stretched hand.“Yes sir, I'm Lucas Jackson and you must be Mr Lincoln.” I replied as we both took our seats.Jack started the presentation, explaining the process of the project we were about to embark on. “Our company has an orphanage and we believe with your collaboration, we'll skyrocket into the next level.” I concluded the presentation as Mr Lincoln clapped.I gave a little bow, waiting for him to say something.“Well, what can I say? You've won my heart, the deal is yours automatically.” Jack stood up immediately, rushing towards me as we embraced each other.“Thanks so much Mr Lincoln, I'll get the documents.” Jack wal

ALLYSA'S POV We rode out of the compound in silence and I was grateful for that, the peace and calmness was soothing but sleep was far from my eyes. I felt his eyes boring holes into my face but I cared less.“You can stop staring, I'm not for an auction.” I said rudely, not turning to face him. Who did he think he is? “You're becoming so rude__”“I've always been rude but I tried to be nice and caring but I think you don't need it, you love it the harder way.”“What do you mean?”“Think deep Lucas, I cannot tell you everything.” I saw him sigh from the corner of my eyes and a small smile crept up my face.When we got back home, I walked into the house, up the stairs without saying anything to him, and I guess he got the message that I didn't want to be disturbed.We both changed out of our clothes and in no time we were on the bed, facing either sides. **********************************Morning came too fast for me because I was still feeling sleepy and tired. My legs were st

ALLYSA'S POV Long after Ivy left, I couldn't bring myself to leave the restaurant. Was she right? Should I accept this? I picked up my phone and realized I'd just had an argument with my talk buddies, mom and Ivy.I got into my car and sped back home. If no one's gonna talk to me, I'd better rushed home. “You're back, should I set your dinner?” Benny asked.“You can set it once my husband gets back, I'll be in my bedroom.”As I walked up the stairs my mind kept drifting to my activities for today. What was I thinking getting into an argument with mom and Ivy?I picked my phone and dialed Ivy's line, it rang for a while before she finally picked.“Yeah, thought you'd never call.” She said into the phone.“Alright I was wrong, but it's not a daily thing to accept you're falling for your arranged husband, it's delirious.”“The more you keep thinking it's delirious, the more stupid it'd be, be nice, accept your feelings except you want that lady back in his life.”“Do not say such Ivy.”
