All day every single news outlet carried the story of Jakob Kensington who had managed to get into a fatal accident. It was beginning to get annoying how much it was repeated but he seemed like a big deal so it was understandable. “I'm so tired of hearing about that accident. I mean, who the fuck strays into the path of a truck? I bet he was drunk.” Julia said from her seat, as she flipped through channels, looking for something that would suit her taste. “You can't judge until you know what happened, Jules,” I said, returning my attention to my phone. She just grunted in response and I left her to it. She was right though, every news outlet carried the story of the accident. It was a field day or in this case, days for them. The accident happened three days prior and there had been no news of him ever since. “Selene?” Julia called ...

CHAPTER 2
THREE DAYS EARLIERJAKOB’S POV“For the last time, father, I am not interested in being CEO.” I have had this exact conversation with my father more times than I could count since I was old enough to take over. As the only child, he just wouldn't listen to me. I knew how my father was. He wanted a means to control me and getting me to become the CEO was one of them. Our relationship has been extremely rocky from the beginning. We had different views on everything in life. He was work-driven and while I loved to work, I didn't want to have to report to someone for most of my life. He hated when anyone disobeyed his orders and that was one of the things I took pride in doing. Several times, he had threatened to cut me off but he was too proud to let all of his assets go to charity. I told him that would be the best option for him but he seemed hell-bent on making me bend to his will. “You WILL be CEO, Jakob. I command it!” His voice made the words seem more powerful than they were.

CHAPTER 3
Jakob’s POVMy head pounded and I groaned as I opened my eyes. The pain was excruciating and I almost blacked out just from the sheer intensity of it. “You're finally awake.” I heard a voice said I groaned for a different reason. Of course, my father had to be there when I woke up. My brain provided information of what had happened in a flash. The drinking. The argument with Daniel. Driving. And finally, the accident. It had been irresponsible of me to drive while being drunk I was sure my father being here was a punishment for that. “Father.” My voice didn't sound at all like mine. It sounded as though it had been sandpapered and then passed through gravel. I managed to open my eyes despite the blinding light that only reminded me of the truck that had rammed into me. I briefly wondered what had happened to the driver of the truck and hoped they didn't get in trouble for what was my fault. “Careful.” Another voice interjected as I tried to lift myself up. That was when I realiz

CHAPTER 4
Selene's POV. Two hours later, I ended up hissing at every turn. Because I have never met anyone who made my skin crawl like Jacob. What the hell did he even think he was? I wondered. It isn't my fault that our parents decided to make us marry each other, but he wasn't going to treat me according to that mistake. I also had other people that were my perfect choice not him of all people. "You must be kidding me. I have to permit you to start staying with me, not just jumping yourself, and I like vision simply because you can." He responded. I decided to call my friend if you know what I would run out of my mind. This wasn't what I wanted from myself and I was going to get freedom no matter who tried to camp me down. "Hi, babe," Lily spoke through the receiver, making me laugh. She was a crazy b**** who decided to live her life on the fast lane. I could almost imagine how she reacted at the time she knew that I was in a bondage called a marriage. "Where are you?" She deman

CHAPTER 5
Selene's POV.I took a deep breath immediately after leaving Jakob's presence. That man was distinct in his approach to grating on my nerves and not even feeling the darndest remorse about it. How did somebody be in a wheelchair and still be as pompous as anything? I would have even thought that he would be remorseful, but no, that wasn't the case here. He felt like he was on top of the world and I was just a peasant. I picked up my phone to call my friend. This was getting overwhelming, but I later dropped it because I didn't want to expose everything I was going through to an outsider. What were my parents even thinking? Hooking me up with a total stranger just to get their company on the top of the chart! I had only watched this in movies, but now it was finally playing out before my very eyes, and I didn't even have anything to say to them besides just watching as they ruled my life with an iron fist. I would never have imagined that I would be in such a situation, and it was o

CHAPTER 6
Selene's POV. I rushed in the direction where I heard the voice coming from. Martha and I arrived at the door at the same time, before I pushed it open. I walked in and saw Jakob on his knees, taking in deep breaths, with one hand stretched in front of him with another on the ground to balance his position. "I asked you to bring a cup of tea not to leave me alone for so long. Are you sure that you can perform your duty, or should I replace you with another person who needs this job?!" He hissed, making me shake my head. I had never met a person who was this delusional in my entire life. He was at his lowest but still had the nerve to scream at his maid. "Why don't you just allow Martha to help you up and conserve your energy for something better?" I couldn't help but burst out. He looked at me with fire blazing in his eyes but I didn't care. I wasn't going to allow him to expend his energy on a woman who hadn't done him any wrong besides suffering from frustration. "I didn't call

CHAPTER 7
Selene's POV. I woke up the next day with a small smile on my face. I had managed to shut Jacob up and felt so good about it. Whether or not he was angry with me was his business because I didn't have any grudges against him. He was the one with various ideas that didn't make any sense, no matter how much he tried to make them work. I headed downstairs and saw him sitting at the dining table with a laptop in front of him. I smacked my lips, announcing my presence, but this stubborn man refused to act like he saw me. "Good morning Jakob." "There is nothing good about the morning." He responded sharply. If I wasn't careful he would have bitten my head off. I guess he woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I glanced around pretending not to also see him, before raising my brows. "Where is Martha?" "Gone." I blinked in confusion. "What do you mean gone? She was alive last night, what suddenly happened?" "How dumb can you be?" He responded sharply again and I rolled my

CHAPTER 8
Selene's POV."We are wastedddd..." Lily's drunken voice filtered into my ears making me roll my eyes. She rested on my shoulder, saddling me with the responsibility of carrying her home. "Why don't you look happy? I'm sorry I dragged you..." She trailed off before letting out a loud snore.So much for wanting to hang out with me. I should have known that she was no good but also wanted freedom after being caged in that house for so long. I would have preferred it if I had just gone to the bar alone. "Please take us home," I told the driver, who nodded through the rearview mirror. I rested my head on the back seat and reached for her phone so that I couldn't tell her parents that she was out with me. They allowed us to mingle together because they believed I was going to set her straight. Taking her home was also not going to be the best way to go so I swiped across her phone screen. I was glad that I knew her password because it was going to prove abortive if I decided to take cha

CHAPTER 9
Selene's POV. "Urgh, my head hurts like hell. I don't even know why I..." Lily complained immediately after she woke up, and I found myself rolling my eyes. She jumped up immediately after she spotted me, or rather immediately after I opened the windows. She wasn't supposed to be here and have me babysitting her when she was an adult in her right and responsible for her actions, but I guess this was what I had signed up for, and I didn't have any right to complain about anything. "You should be happy that I made it a point of duty to take you home last night because you decided to be a pain in my life, and right now, I don't know what to do." I retorted not giving her breathing space at all. If I did that then it was a license for her to continue living recklessly."Selene?" "Were you expecting someone else?" I responded and folded my arms about to launch into scolding her properly. She didn't reply. Instead, she kept on staring at me, probably hoping that I turned into someone e

CHAPTER 10
Selene's POV.I didn't know how to feel at that moment because I knew that I had made a lot of harsh judgments on this man. I mean it wasn't my fault, after all ,he presented himself that way. "I don't need your pity." He snapped at me and I rolled my eyes. There he went again, trying to prove something that was not even in the works. I guess he found pleasure in showing everyone that he didn't need their help which quite frankly I didn't think I was in the best position to help him with whatever he was going through. "Have you even considered if I have any help to offer to you in the first place? I'm just some young lady trying to find my foot in life and expecting me to become a therapist to you is a far stretch. I wont even engage myself in such." I retorted, relishing the fact that he doubled back in shock. "Now that we've got that out of the way? I believe that we can pick to each other like real people and come to a truce." I offered, that was my only way of repaying him for
