My Psychopath Billionaire Husband

My Psychopath Billionaire Husband

Shotgun marriage usually happens when there is an unintended pregnancy resulting in marriage in a hurry or enforced but... not in my case. "Desmond Cro'esnt, do you take this woman to be your wife, to live together in matrimony, to love her, to honor her, to comfort her, and to keep her in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?" I looked straight into Desmond's eyes. They are raven black and it does match his long, wavy black hair. "I do," he answered as he smiled innocently at me. Making himself look promising. Then, the priest turned to me. "Neiva Ariella Hillstone, do you take this man to be your husband, to live together in matrimony, to love him, to honor him, to comfort him, and to keep him in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?" I still can't believe that I'm going to marry this man. He looks happy, waiting for my answer. His white suit is making him look even kinder. The only witness we have here is the priest and his men in black suits, currently pointing a gun right into my head. "Time is running, Neiva. It's either you marry me or you die." His innocent smile turned into a devilish one. This suits him more because this is the real him. And that answered your question. My shotgun marriage happened to be the literal meaning of it. I closed my eyes and deeply breathed before answering, "I do." "You're mine now." He pulled me by my waist and pressed his lips against mine. I am now officially the wife of this Psychopath Billionaire Mafia Boss.

Nieva's POV:I Woke up when I heard a knock at the door. I slowly opened my eyes and the white ceiling was the first one I saw. After a while, I realized that the ceiling was unfamiliar, so I quickly looked around the room."Ma'am Nieva, this is Manang Gina. You need to wake up and eat breakfast with Sir Desmond." When I heard what the person outside said, I remembered everything that happened yesterday, from my kidnapping to the shotgun marriage and Desmond's almost exploiting me. I quickly sat up on the bed."Ma'am Nieva, if you don't wake up, we will open the door."My chest started to feel heavy again. I will be a prisoner here. I will lose my freedom to do what I want and most of all my life is in danger here.I looked at the door when it opened and saw Manang Gina with a maid who looked only 18 years old. "You're already awake." She signaled the maid who was with her to put the dress she was holding on the bed. I looked at the white dress. "You'll wear that today. Take a shower

Chapter 5 The black car stopped in front of a tall and wide golden gate. Suddenly a light turned on the adjacent pole, it scanned the car then the light turned green and the gate opened. The driver immediately drove inside. I looked around and was amazed to see how spacious it was here. all black poles were lighting the way, I looked around and saw many different types of plants and trees. There are also a few familiar flowers."We're here." Hearing Desmond's voice ruined the moment I was having and brought me back to reality. I looked at him who was next to me, he smiled but I immediately looked away. His smile is the worst. The driver got out and opened the door for us."From now on, you're going to live here.." Desmond pointed out when we got out of the car and faced the unbelievablely huge modern house. ".. with me."I swallowed because I knew what he would say would be followed. I have no power in this place, I am just his toy. I can't do anything but accept what he wants."Sha

Flashback "How will you fix the mess you made, Steven?!" My Mom's voice was filled with desperation and hatred. "How about you stop talking?" Dad slammed the spoon and fork he was holding on the table. "You're no help!" "If only you were not easy to fool, this wouldn't happened!" Mom grabbed the wine glass and threw it into the ground, making a loud noise as it shattered."Stop!" I couldn't bear hearing the words they threw at each other. "You can argue and fight all you want, but not in front of food. You two are being disrespectful." I was looking down; I couldn't bring myself to stare into their faces because I knew all I would see from them was how miserable and upset they were.Silent filled the room. No one from them wants to talk, neither do I. But the quietness is too loud. I have to break it, "I lost my appetite. I'm going to sleep now." I didn't bother waiting for their answers; instead, I hurriedly walked upstairs straight into my room. I Locked the door and sat on the

Chapter: Chapter 2
Nieva's POV:"The Mafia boss, and you're going to marry me whether you like it or not." Silence took over between us. I kept staring at his dark black eyes, unable to talk. I am confused. What the hell is he talking about? "I know questions are lingering inside your head right now." He slides the gun inside the pocket of his pants. "But that can wait..." Again, he grasped me by my wrist and smiled devilishly, "and I cannot." "Marry you? I don't even know you." I don't know where I got all the courage to tell him this. The curve from his lips slowly disappeared as his grip on my wrist tightened. His face became dead serious. He didn't like my answer. "Did I hear it wrong?" He asked in a low and serious tone as he started to walk step by step, getting closer to me. I took a step backward until I felt a car behind me. I winced as I felt an unbearable pain around my wrist. It felt like my bone would break in any second. Damn! I need him to stop! "As much as possible, I want us to b

Chapter: Chapter 1
The old man whom my customer tonight started to kiss me. I couldn't bear to see his face this close. I could see his pores, wrinkles, and freckles. It disgusts me. His lips tasted like a cigarette—a strong one. I firmly closed my eyes. I wanted to pull away but couldn't do it. This is all for money, Nieva. You can do it. Endure this a little. This will end soon. "Honey, you taste like candy, so young and flavourful," he whispered as he stopped kissing me on my lips and grabbed my thighs tightly. My skin crawls by what I've just heard. The words coming out from his mouth are disgusting, too. I've encountered a lot of people like him. They crave for young women to satisfy their needs: a total creep and a pervert. I despise them. He started kissing me on my cheeks, down to my neck and shoulders. His lips pressing on my skin feels like a needle. "Is the money not enough, sweetie?" he asked as he grabbed my chin, making me face him. I gulped and took a deep breath. "It is more than en
