Chapter 1

Considering how hard my heart was pounding in my chest, I wouldn’t be surprised if it leaped out of the cavity any moment now. To say I was having a mild panic attack would seem as though I was exaggerating, but only I knew how terrified I was of flying.As we slowly ascended, the imbalance in my ear was beginning to grab my attention.

Especially when I was well aware of my qualms when it came to flying in an airplane.In a desperate attempt to keep my mind off things for a while, I closed my eyes and thought about my family.Back in high school, I was always sure what I wanted to be and who I wanted to be with.

Chapter 2
As I stepped into the villa, I noticed that a feverish smile was playing on my lips. Lindsay and I have been close friends ever since we first bumped into each other in one of our college fests. Having been interested in singing, we were part of a small local band in college.We never wanted to professionally pursue singing as it was more of a fun hobby to us more than anything. It fueled our friendship through the years as we shared similar tastes in music. Moreover, due to band activities, we were made to spend a good amount of time together, which inevitably helped bridge a profound friendship between us.Although she was one of my closest friends from college, the bond we shared was a bit unusual, or so it might seem to others. She was a very reserved, introverted person, and often didn’t ask for the liberty to be able to vent to me. She was somebody who was more emotionally mature than I was and didn’t feel the need to share a lot of things about herself with others.She had comp

Chapter 3
His otherwise warm eyes, that had always reminded me of how much he loved me, had turned intolerably dark. Visibly paled, he breathed out in disbelief.“Skylar?”It almost felt like a dream. There was something inside of me that hoped for it all to be a one of all the other nightmares I had of I meeting him again in an absurd situation, and then waking up to reality where it would just vanish away like air. But it also was so hard to regard as a dream. I was so aware of all the things that were playing through my mind that I have confined to my heart to until this moment.How could everything that happened around seven years ago just come crashing into my mind like it just happened yesterday? How could just one glance at him stir those deep buried emotions to come back to the surface, brimming with the same level of anticipation. I remained rooted in my place, unmoving.My mind was constantly trying to escape to all the past times I’ve spent with him together, as though my entire life

Chapter 4
I had no reason to cast myself another look in the mirror, but I did it anyway. And as I lingered there for a while, the reflection of my figure faded into thin air and instead, images from my life began to play before my eyes.If this was the universe that planned my life, then it did a bloody great job.I masked my face with the veil before Ethan could notice my tears. I knew for certain that nothing could change his mind. He absolutely hated me. Which led me to believe that, maybe, it wouldn’t matter to him if he called the wedding off, and perhaps, he was doing this because he had found an excuse to hurt me.Of course, he would never agree to that. But I knew for certain that he could go to an extent as that if he knew that getting married to him was the last thing I wanted.“Are you done?”I nodded in response. And there he stood in all his glory with not even a worried crease disturbing the calm aura around him. His nonchalance almost created a ripple of frustration within me.I

Chapter 5
The news spread around like wildfire. After the wedding was over, Ethan cancelled all of the further events since he wanted to call for an important family meeting. There was not even a single soul that didn’t look surprised upon seeing the girl Ethan married.“Where the hell is my daughter?” Luke demanded from Ethan.“Shouldn’t I be asking you where my fiancé was when I went to fetch her from her room?” Ethan replied, shunning everyone with his dangerously low voice.“What are you talking about?”“She eloped with her lover.” He said, “Leaving me with no choice but to marry the first woman I could find in her room before this wedding could become a scandal.”“We had a deal that you’d marry my daughter!” Luke yelled at Ethan, looking at me with a disgust. “How could you marry this wench after giving me your word?”“Hey, watch your words.” Jen, my best friend, said to him, coming to stand beside.I was surprised to have her by my side at a situation like this. Although it was a complete

Chapter 6
Ethan’s POV“You know you don’t have to be a jerk to her for what happened seven years ago, right?” Lexi asked me as I hugged her good bye. Skylar was talking privately with my parents while Lexi pulled me to a side for a quick chat.“Is that all you’ve got to say?” I asked her.“If you married someone else, I would’ve asked you to better be careful with your wife. But now, I insist on asking you to handle her with care and to not be a jerk.”“I’m old enough to know when to be a jerk.” I replied.“Exactly, but still you act like the most stupid person I ever knew in my life.” Lexi teased me.“Lexi..” I warned her.“See,” Lexi said, looking at me in the eye. Her voice became serious and gone was the playful tone she was using. “I know why you did what you did. I also know that you were forced to marry Skylar and that you can do nothing about it now. Even if you plan for a divorce, you still have plenty of time to spend alongside each other and fulfil your part. And if you’re just going

Chapter 7
Skylar’s POVThe drive to his house was calm and boring, just like the flight journey that we took a few hours ago to come to LA. Most of the time, I was in conflict with my mind if I should turn the music on to lighten up the situation. Part of my mind told me that I should totally go for it, while the other told me how it is impossible to lighten a situation up if it involves my husband.I cringed at that thought. The word husband suddenly seemed so weird. It scared me for a moment. Now, I’ll be known as some else’s wife rather than by my own identity. People are probably going to know me better as someone that married Ethan than a good actress.But I know what people think is not always my thing to worry about. There are always going to be someone to talk about you. I can’t possibly lead a life giving a damn about everything.I blinked a few times and shook the thoughts away. We soon reached his house. I wasn’t surprised to know that he stays in a penthouse.His house smelled of wo

“You say you married one of your ex-boyfriends - scratch that- your only ex-boyfriend, against your wish?” Jessica exclaimed, her blue eyes narrowing at meI left out an irritated sigh. “For the tenth time, yes."“What is the century that we’re living in? Please don’t tell me it’s the twenty-first. Because that kind of stuff doesn’t happen here anymore!” Jess’s expression turned incredulous.“Well, it happened to me,” I said, shrugging. “I was defenceless against him.”“Oh, don’t say stuff like that. You’re never defenceless. You always have your way through with things.” Jess said.“He told me he would ruin my career.”"Wow."“He would. That's Ethan Parker we're talking about, he can do anything.” I said, the energy of fighting anymore draining away from my body like a deflated balloon.Jessica, my manager, sat across from me with her legs folded under her thighs, holding numerous news articles and magazines that posted about my wedding. Apparently, the news broke out in the morning,

“I want to talk to you,” I spoke as the wall clock binged with the completion of one round. Ethan spread himself in the study, going through a few of his files and making rough notes.“I’m busy.” His blunt reply crept into my ears.“It’s important,” I stated, tapping my fingers against the headrest of the chair that lay before the table. He let out a rough sigh and closed his laptop. Leaning back in the chair, with arms held folded, he waited for me to continue.“Jess was suggesting us to go on a honeymoon,” I said, clutching the rim of the chairs and gently digging my nails into them.He frowned. “Who’s that?”“The woman who just got kicked out of this house. You didn’t really have to be so rude to her, by the way. She was being nice to you. Anyways, back to it. I’m really worried about how my marriage is going to affect my career and you already know that people aren’t accepting what we are projecting. We need to be a little more-”“We are not going anywhere, Skylar. I have work to

Chapter 10
A half-hour later, we sat down across from each other with our breakfast before us. I grabbed a cup of free yoghurt and pushed my spoon into it. Taking a spoonful of it into my mouth, I looked at him.“What are you up to?” I asked him.He stopped chowing his food and looked are me puzzled. “I was about to ask you if you wanted any syrup with that cereal-”I rolled my eyes. “Not that, like, in life.”His shoulder rose and fell back down in a shrug. “I don’t know. I’m going to sign a few projects soon, and I’ll be having a movie get out in the cinemas real soon-”“Zac,” I warned him. “Don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about. I’m staying inside your house and having breakfast although I planned on showing myself off in the outside so that I can really talk to you about stuff that is important.”He sighed and looked up at me. “Tell me what you want to know.”“You do realise that Lana and Kyle are married right?” I said. “And there is a very slight possibility of them getting
