"As I say I won't and I won't get anything in marrying that woman"

Travis said with a finality in his voice

"well I heard your girlfriend stefanny's issue about her family's company and I know dad block all your connection from her so that you can't able to help him, now tell me can you do anything for stefanny your girlfriend ?"

His brother is now smiling from ear to ear

But his still in the midst of confusion

"you mean,if I marry that girl that supposed to be your responsibility,you will help my girlfriend stefanny and her company? "

"Bingo brother! you really are brilliant, I'm making you a favor here, since you can't help your girlfriend then I will but you need to marry that girl that I'm supposed to marry I hear her name is Zephaniah? And you can divorce her after and I know stefanny will understand "

"hey baby girl, just tell me if you want to back out,we will fix this"

She turn around when her mom speak

She just smile at her

"no mom, I want this to happen, If this is the only way to save our company then I will"

Her mom hug her

"thank you sweetie, anyways look at you,you look like a goddes"

She look at her self at the human length mirror

She's wearing a beautiful white off shoulder gown that hug her curves and her white firm skin are visible

Her hair was curled and a light make up

What her mom say is true

She's like a goddess

"Com'n honey the ceremony is about to start, let's go? "

Their wedding is held at the Dawson's hotel his soon to be husband own it

Her mom escorted her

"honey you look so beautiful "

Her dad said

"thanks dad"

She smile

The ceremony started and now she's infront of her drop dead hot groom

Those hazel tantalizing cold eyes

Perfect jaw line, pointed nose ,kissable lips and masculine body she's sure that many girl are dying just to be me in her place right now

"Do you,Zephaniah Raine McMillan accept Travis Dawson to be your lawfully wedded husband? "

The priest ask and she say I do,Vice versa

"you may now kiss the bride"

Everyone yell and cheer

He held Zephaniah's chin then gently press her lips in my cheeks

"don't expect me to kiss you in the lips,its gross"

He whispered at her ears that give chills in her whole body

She roll my eyes

What an arrogant man!

He held hers hand as they go to the reception but first Zephaniah change her dress into cocktail dress

They greet their visitors and thanks them for coming into their lovely wedding

She was roaming around when someone bump into him

When he see his face he got starstruck,he can't be wrong!

"sir?sorry for bumping you,hey sir"

She snap then the guy snap back into his senses

"oh I'm sorry,by the way I'm Trevor Dawson, the brother of the groom, and you are? "

So this is my brother in law huhuh?

She say in her thought

"Ahm hi Zephaniah is the name, and your sister in law, you look so familiar,oh If you excuse me I think my groom is looking for me"

She smile as she excuse her self

Travor dropped her wine glass as he sunk in those word she just say

I was sitting comfortably in the couch while scrolling down in my social media while eating the pizza that I ordered

I was alone in this huge house my husband aren't home yet and we still didn't talk yet since the day of our wedding and we're on the same roof,this house was prepared by both of our parents for us, I tried to convince mom and dad that maybe I just can live in our house and my husband in there house too. But as much as they want to, they can't because I'm now an official wife

I don't know if I can do this specially that my so-called husband is giving me a cold shoulder,he won't talk to me

We aren't sleeping on the same room, of course we're not married because of love so we don't need to sleep together

I really just wanna make this set up of us thru

I was about to enter my room when a man enter the mansion with knotted forehead,he look at me with a death glare

What's up with him?

"have you already cooked?"

I look at him and raised my eyebrow

"what do you think of me? Your chef?tsk Cook your own if you wanna eat"

I was about to turn my back when he pull my wrist then push my back behind my back,damn it hurts

"o-ouch let go of me!your hurting me!"

He just look at me with dagger look

"yes and I swear to hurt you even more if you will continue talking to me like that! Treat me as if I'm your boss and for you to be reminded your just as low as servant"

He let go of my wrist then was about to walk away when I say something

"but I'm your fcking wife Mr.Dawson,so fcking treat me like one! "

He stop halfway then I heard him laugh

Then he look at me

"I love your guts,but listen woman your not my anything your just that gold digger whore whom your parent sell in my family in order for your company to be okay and back to its normal state,we're nothing and don't you dare claim being my wife again because I don't love you!"

He say and his words feel like a dagger in my chest

It damn hurt,no Zephaniah your strong your far better than this don't show him your weakness

He was about to turn back the second time when I yell something that make him freeze

Damn I think I hit his nerve

"Your a monster! your not capable of love!"

And as fast as adrenaline that rush thru my body his hand land on my face and I feel numb for a moment he then look at me with nothing but rage in his eye

"listen you bitch, for your fcking information I married you in order to help someone I married you because I want to make someone happy,and that someone is the only person who owns my heart the one that I love"

I look at him with nothing but anger in my eyes

"I don't fucking care if you love that fucking someone you sound so cheesy that it make me cringe but for your fucking information also you don't have the right to slap me!"

I yell at him

I can see the irritation in his eyes

''I have all the right Mrs. Dawson because your my slave!I bought you with the money that I'm giving your family in order to help you raise your bankrupt company again!So you don't have the right to complain put that in your little shitty mind you brat"

He says then left me dumbfounded

I wipe my tears and rush thru the bathroom

I look at my redden cheek

It look swollen

He's heartless

Maybe this is really my destiny to Marry a ruthless man like him

But I will endure everything just for my family

I sigh and go to my room

I laydown on my bed still thinking the words that he said to me

Someone he love? If who ever she is,she's the most unluckiest person in the world

I want mom to comfort me right now but I know it's impossible I can't tell her that my not-so-kind-husband slap me

I'm sure she will do everything for us to be divorce and that will be the end for our company and I won't let that happened

I yawned as I feel my eyelead got heavier as I let the darkness it me

I woked up when I feel my Tummy roared

I sigh, I'm hungry again

I walk slowly like a ninja stalking it's target, I'm looking back and fort looking if that jerk husband of mine is here I don't wanna encounter him right now,still wounded in the words that he say

I look at the hall way and seeing that the cost is clear I walk faster thru the kitchen I feel my feet glued in the floor when I saw a figure of a man standing against the stove with an apron and a laddle on the right hand I was about to turn my back when he notice my presence

''what are you doing here?"

He says in a casual tone as if he didn't slap me earlier

"Just looking something to eat"

He raise his eyebrows against me and look at me with unbelievable look

"why?did you buy your own groceries?"

My mouth gaped open

What's wrong with him, really even groceries?tsk he can't be this childish!

"what do you mean?!"

I say holding my grudges not to burst out

"you know what I mean, if you wanna eat buy your own food and cook for your own"

He says then turn his back and face the stove again checking if it's already cooked

"seriously travis?are you planning on killing me with hunger?! Stop the childish act will you?! "

He glare at me

My eyes widen when he get a fragile glass and throw it in the wall beside me

I scream and cover my face, It almost hit me!

I feel my body numb and shaking when he walks toward me I thaught he will going to hurt me again but I feel relieve when he pass thru me

"just seeing your face makes me lost my apetite,throw that foods of and clean that broken glass, and better know your limit woman"

Just then he leave me crying

Then I feel my Tummy roar I wanna eat the food because of hunger but I don't think I can swallow it knowing that it was cooked by my devil husband

I decided to just go outside and eat some food in the nearby restaurant

But before leaving I clean the broken glass

Just staring at it make me wanna cry again, this glass is like me, so fragile,look so strong but easy to be broken

I was busy sipping my camomile tea while thinking everything that happened earlier

Why does he hate me so much? What did I do? Is it because of that someone he mentioned that he loves the most? Am I the reason why he can't Marry her?ugh Im so tired thinking those what ifs and why's

But my curiosity is getting the best of me

If he really loves her, then why did he say yes with this set up of ours? And does his reason's enough to treat me this way?

Ugh I just wanna rest my brain from thinking

I stare at my tea and sigh

I don't have my credit card in me and I only have $20 I still remember Travis saying to my parents that they don't need to give me money because he's my husband and what his is mine so I can just use his credit card Anytime I want but look at now! he wants me to buy my own groceries but how can I able to buy without money? He won't give me,he fooled my parents by saying that they don't need to support me financially and I was also fooled thinking that his really true to his word

I sigh in frustration I'm starving for fuck's sake tsk

He's so heartless

"Zephaniah?"

I look up when someone call my name

A good looking man is standing in front of me

"oh,hi travor what's up?"

He just smile shyly

My brother in law is here standing in front of me

He looks more kind than his evil brother, I guess

"may I?"

He ask politely and I ask with a smile

I look down at his tray,I gulp seeing a lot of food

I feel like drooling

"So you're alone?"

I wanna answer him sarcastically but I hold my tongue to it's places

"yes,so why were you here? "

I answer with a corresponding question

"ah just strolling around and I thought I saw you so I came in and guess my guess is right"

He laugh a bit

He's more handsome when he laugh I can't help but to compare him with his brother they have this different attractive feature but judging fair and square I can tell that his brother are more attractive but both of them are gorgeous

"Anyway, have you already eaten?"

He ask while chewing some of his food,I gulp,I'm now salivating

Gosh Im ravenously hungry

"I ate before I leave the house"

I fake a smile, of course it's a lie, how could I eat at home when that heartless husband of mine won't let me tsk

"Are you sure? You look pale "

I was about to deny my hunger the second time but my tummy betrayed me, it roar louder than earlier and I know for sure he heard it judging by the look of his face

"Tsk I can see that your lying"

He said then call the waiter

"Order everything you want, my treat"

He said

Hesitant at first but I still ordered anything that would fill my hunger

"I won't ask you anything about why'd you lie saying that you already eaten and why'd you still haven't eat for it's almost two in the afternoon even though Im dying to know why, but please accept my kind gesture and eat a lot and stop being awkward around me,I'm your brother in law,brother of your husband so you'd better feel free around me"

Even though I hate it when he mention my husband, I still get touch by his soothing words

How I wish that he is the one who Marry me,maybe Im not suffering like this but I know it's impossible

I just smile and nod

After eating I thank him

He then offer me a ride but I refuse I still don't wanna go home,and I still don't wanna see him ....my husband

"maybe your husband is looking for you"

My smile almost Faded when he mention the word husband again, but I Manage to smile widely,I would thanks to the inventor of the clay blush it help me to hide my redden cheeks made by my husband's slap

"He don't give a fuck"

I saw a glint of surprise in his eyes,I don't know if it is because of my answer or because I cursed,well everyone doesn't really expect someone like me would spit that kind of word

"what do you mean?"

"well it's just that we really, just don't give a damn with each other, our marriage is nothing but a set-up and just an arranged marriage"

"well that's ahm......I don't know what to say but I wanna ask you some question if you don't mind"

"sure"

"Are you already falling for him? "

His question almost choke me I swear I can kill him right now!

"Of Course not!and I won't,I will never fall for him"

I said defensively

I swear I saw his face lighten up but why?

"Anyway, you wanna go somewhere? I can accompany you"

Looking at him I can say that he's far more better than my devil husband and more boyfriend material

"thanks, but no need I still have to go to my parent's house,I need to take back my credit card "

I see a hint of confusion in his face maybe he's curious of what's going on but he stay silent and choose not to ask

"Great!I'm also going there because my father ask me a favor to give this present to your father a little advance gift for his birthday because he know that he will not be there when it will be celebrated,you know he prefer being advance than belated"

It almost slip in my mind that next week will be my father's birthday I still need to think what present would I buy for him

"So shall we?"

He say as he headed towards an old model ferrari,open its door and motion his hand for me to enter

"an old model of ferrari?I mean no offense huh"

he smile

"non taken"

"I thought you were driving a Ferrari Laferrari aperta or an audi just like your brother"

"ahn yeah not to brag but I have a lot of latest cars dump in my garrage but I often use this car this one was given to me by a special someone"

A special someone huh

I nodded understandingly

"that someone must be so dear to you"

I remark

He smile

"she is"

He says as he close the door on my side and go to the driver set

She?so it's a girl
