[ Scarlett ]“Umm...let me sleep, honey.” I moan in sleep as my husband tickles my neck which his two days old stubbles.“It’s Sunday, Angel. You have to get up as it’s nearly afternoon.” He says and my eyes jolt open.“Are you serious?” I gasp looking at his smiling face.He strokes my face with his knuckle and drop a kiss on my forehead,”Yes, my love. I didn’t disturb your sleep because you hardly get time for yourself but our princess wants us to spend the day with her. We can’t make her angry.” He says.I sit straight and rub my sleepy eyes. He climbs out of the bed in his naked glory causing me to blush. It’s been five years of our marriage but he can still make me hot just like the first time. He smirks seeing his effect on me.“We can shower together to save both time and water.” He offers but I know his intentions very well.“Thanks for your generous offer, Mr. Hamilton but I’d shower alone because we’ll neither save time nor water.” I reply slipping out of the quilt, I wore h
[ Scarlett ] I want to live here forever, at my current boyfriend’s house because the place I call my house is a prison for me or I should say it was as I am getting married in next three hours with a man of my father’s choice not mine. I practically flee from my own wedding to save my most valuable tressure, my freedom from been confiscated by my Dad. “Scar, baby get up, your father’s driver is here to pick you.” Ethan, my boyfriend shakes my shoulder to wake me up from the couch where I have been laying for hours, drunk and wasted. “Tell him to get lost. I am not marrying that old douche. If Mathew Remirez wants me to lick his feet like I am his pet then he should know that I am his daughter not a fucking business deal.” I shout, letting out my frustration on poor Ethan. “Baby, we both know that this isn’t a serious relationship and no one can defy a powerful man like your father. Please, go back to your house with your driver. I do not want to be in any trouble. Besides, we can
[ Scarlett ] I stare at the thin band on my finger and then at the man standing beside me with the same expression. Is he even a human or a machine? He hasn’t spoken to me accept the two or three sentences. Now I am dreading my new but temporary life. Yes, I’d divorce him as soon as I turn twenty-five. These six months will be a living hell for both of us. “Blaze, take care of my precious daughter. She is now your responsibility. I wish you a happy married life.” My devil of a father says his departing words to his new son-in-law as he prepares to leave with Carla whose grin isn’t leaving her face. I just want to smash her face. “Do you want us to give you two a ride back to your home?” Carla emphasizes or I say mocks me. “No, Ma’am, we’re fine.” Blaze turns down her offer politely. “Thanks, Carla but I have my own car which my new husband is going to drive.” I give her a smug look. “Sorry, Scarlett but you can’t take the car which belongs to the Remirez property. Like I said bef
[ Blaze ]The second step of my plan succeeded today. I made a permanent place in my enemy’s life. Although I have to marry the spoiled princess of Mathew, I am ready to tolerate her useless tantrums if it means destroying my enemy gradually. He snatched everything from my family, our business, our properties, our home and most importantly our happiness.For last fifteen years, I have waiting for the day when I’d have an upper hand on him but the smart leech always managed to save his ass. We had to suffer a lot, we lived on streets for first few days on the streets, my father somehow found a house, my current home where I disguise myself as a poor driver. He worked in stores, my mother who lived the life of a queen once, she had to work as a maid.We had no money when she got sick and died. I studied on scholarship while working as a cleaner in a restaurant when I was only eighteen to earn our bread and butter as my dad’s income wasn’t enough. One day he also passed away due to heart
[ Scarlett ]The old lady Windy was an over talkative woman. She literally told me the history and geography this shit hole that she calls a heaven for permanent dwellers. They consider themselves a big family but I find it annoying. I mean people need privacy and they don’t know how to respect it for someone who doesn’t like to be involved unnecessarily like me.Windy also told me that I and Blaze should come to her house for breakfast where she has invited others also to introduce me to their society. Once she left, I yawned and glanced at the clock. It was around ten and Blaze was nowhere not that I cared about my father’s loyal dog aka Blaze Hamilton. I rise from the washed sofa and put my plates in the kitchen sink. If he thinks that I’d play a housewife for him then he’s living in a dream. He brought it upon him, now he must bear the outcomes.I return to his room means my temporary room to sleep but then I remember that I don’t have any cloth to wear except the one I’m wearing
[ Scarlett ]“I am not going to meet these barbarians ever again. Did you hear their questions? Don’t they know the basic manners that some aren’t meant to be discussed.” I huff in annoyance as soon as we walk out Windy’s house.Blaze, who was also very uncomfortable by the questions which were thrown at us ‘jokingly’. He quickly excused us out of there before someone got to know about the truth behind our arrangement.I roll my eyes,” I prefer my privacy, Mr. Blaze until I am here and it won’t be very long.” I say with confidence.“Let’s get back to the house. I will take you for shopping after my shift. You really need to replace your wardrobe temporarily, I mean until you live here.” He says again in his sarcastic tone.“I am fine with my clothes. Moreover, you can’t afford the cost of the brands I prefer, dear husband.” I also use mocking tone but he looks indifferent by my remark like he expected it from me.“Go inside the house and do not open it unless its Windy. She will sure
[ Scarlett ]The conversation with Mr. William keeps playing in my mind. I feel betrayed by everyone. This whole world around me seems like a disillusion. They kill my trust and my faith on my fate and the God. I feel lost. I don’t want to be at Blaze’s place. I do not belong to his world but I am not welcomed at my own home either.The sun has set a long time ago. I lost track of time as I have been roaming on the streets with a blank mind and numb heart. None of my friends responded to my calls or texts. They must have come to know about my broken state that I can no longer spend my loads of money on our friendship. They are good weather friends who slapped the harsh reality on my face. My phone keeps vibrating in my purse but I don’t bother to check the caller id as I don’t want to talk to anyone in the moment but when it rings continuously, I have to check. I pull out my phone and see an unknown number on the screen. I want to reject the call but a part of me nudges me to answer
[ Scarlett ]"I want you to fuck me, Blaze Hamilton."I don't know how these words left my lips but I know what I really needed.His dark ocean green eyes dilate on my atrocious demand. He says nothing but keeps staring at me which makes me embarrassed. I sounded like a desperate whore when I demanded sex from a man whom I barely know and probably hate his guts but he is dangerously irresistible.I want to feel this man.Much to my dismay, he rises on his feet, collects our plates and silently walks back in the kitchen to put them in the sink.I bite on my bottom lip, the sexual tension is quite present in the air. He feels it too but he's trying his best to avoid me."Blaze, I am serious here." I march towards him and block his path before he retires for his room. He gauges my reaction but I don't give up on the determination I have in my body and tone."It's getting late, you should sleep now, Scarlett." He says in his deep velvety voice."No, I'm not an early sleeper, Blaze. Do not
[ Scarlett ]“Umm...let me sleep, honey.” I moan in sleep as my husband tickles my neck which his two days old stubbles.“It’s Sunday, Angel. You have to get up as it’s nearly afternoon.” He says and my eyes jolt open.“Are you serious?” I gasp looking at his smiling face.He strokes my face with his knuckle and drop a kiss on my forehead,”Yes, my love. I didn’t disturb your sleep because you hardly get time for yourself but our princess wants us to spend the day with her. We can’t make her angry.” He says.I sit straight and rub my sleepy eyes. He climbs out of the bed in his naked glory causing me to blush. It’s been five years of our marriage but he can still make me hot just like the first time.

[ Blaze ]“Are you sure, it will help us to put Mathew behind the bars for all the crimes he has committed over the years?” Scarlett asks me..“Yes, Angel, William is one of the most cunning and intelligent man. He knows the law for the better and for the worse. The proofs he handed us, they’re enough to bring that motherfucker off his throne.” I assure her but inwardly I am also paranoid. I have to take every step cautiously at this point.“I just hope this time our prayers will be heard and we can bury the devil in the deepest hell.” She leans on my chest.“They will, my love.” I kiss her crown and we settle in the car to reach Ramirez’s office. I have to accomplish two tasks today. One of them is to expose Mathew’s real face to the world.“Promise me, Scarlett that you’ll be at a safe distance from him and won’t lose your patience even though he’d try to provoke you and pretend himself as the guilty. Please, hold your anger and resentment because at the end of all, the victory will
[ Scarlett ]“Where are we going exactly? This house gives me creep all over the body. I mean you have a freaking system of tunnel here, at this manor.” I ask and also express my discomfort in the manor which looks eerie in the gloomy weather but it’s my safe place.“I am sorry if you have to stay here against your wish but it’s matter of a few days only. We are here to meet William. I couldn’t take the risk of taking you out of here, so I fetched a plan and brought William here, in the basement cellar. We can talk here without any interruption.” He explains me.The tunnel opens in a huge hall. This new and undiscovered side of the manor amuses me. It’s occupied with every facilities. I spot William sitting on the sofa and drinking. Our footsteps drive his attention from the flat TV screen to us.“Scarlett, you’re here with him?” He asks me in shock but he doesn’t look worried or angry.Blaze circles his arm around my waist and pulls me closer.“Yes, I am with my husband and safe.” I
[ Blaze ]“Fuck, this is insane. Mathew would step this low, I never thought.” I rub my face as Scarlett finished telling me where he has hidden his secrets and it feels almost impossible for me to fetch a plan to dig it out. I can never disrespect a dead person by digging their grave. “We need permission from the court to dig the grave and if we go to the court, he’ll eventually find out. “She says.“We won’t dig her grave, Angel, we won’t commit the same sin as Mathew.” I say firmly.“Why, Blaze, we’re so close to find out the truth and give justice to your parents.” She frowns.“I don’t care whether I get justice or I have to find another way but I am not going to disturb your mother’s sacred resting placed, it’s a direct respect towards the dead.” I refuse to agree on her terms.“Blaze, look at me.” She forces me to look at her. Her face looks serene in the early morning glory.“Scarlet
[ Blaze ]“Merry Christmas, husband.” She kisses my lips lightly and smuggles on my chest.“Merry Christmas, fiancée.” I run my fingers in her long hairs as we cuddle in front of the fire in our room at Hamilton manor after a tiring night. The only sound which can be heard in the quietness of the room is spluttering of flames and woods and distant sounds of crackers but they are very faint to bother our moments.“I still can’t believe that you’re back in my arms, Angel.” I kiss the top of her head and wrap the blanket properly around her figure.“Me either. I never imagined in my wildest dream that I would fall in love with my arranged husband. In fact, I took an oath to make your life a living hell.” She says and I force her to look at me.“You did?” I ask in amusement.“Hmm, but I couldn’t do anything to make you suffer because you proved loyal to your promises you made to Mathew and treated me with respect. It changed my perception of you and my point of view to see the world and s
[ Scarlett ] “It’s so good to see you after a long time, Scarlett. You forgot about us” Windy pulls me into a bear hug and I wrap my arms around her frame.“I am sorry, Windy. I felt terrible when you and others weren’t around me but now, I feel at home.” I say with a huge grin.“The celebration is complete as our huge family is here, all of us.” Micheal says as he joins us with more cakes.“Micheal, Windy, will you stay with Scarlett until I come back. It won’t take much time but please don’t leave her alone.” Blaze requests them making me turn my attention driven on him.“Of course, it’s not a thing to ask. We’ll give her the best company we can.” Micheal says.“Where are you going, Blaze?” I ask him as he looks lost.“I have to run a little errand. Don’t worry, I will be back in no time.” He assures me and after kissing my lips lightly, he disappears in the crowd.“This boy was lost and alone when you left him after your fight, he barely came home, ate or slept. He loves you madly
[ Blaze ]“Shit! Her phone is out of network coverage.” I yell in frustration as Scarlett’s number has been unavailable for about an hour and I am about to lose my sanity. My wife is in a grave danger and my grandfather wants me to stay calm and stay with the community.“Sir, Mrs. Hamilton’s phone was last located near the bridge and after then, we’re unable to trace her.” My investigating team inform me.My ears perk up, she isn’t at Ramirez mansion which means either grandpa has successfully evacuated her or she is in more grave danger.“Can you trace the car’s GPS if you have it’s access?” I ask them.“Sorry, Sir but we can’t track the car either. Mr. Hamilton has deactivated it due to security purpose. We can only wait until Stella communicate with us.” They apologize and my nervousness has no bound. I quickly dial Grandpa’s number and tap my shoes impatiently. He answers after a few rings.“Why are you bothering me, son?” His annoyed voice comes from the other side.“What are you
[ Scarlett ]“This is dangerous, Scarlett. We won’t make it out alive if the guards waiting outside find out that we’re about to escape from the loo.” Nancy whispers when I told her my plan.“Do you have a better plan than this?” I arch my brow at her.“I’ll think of something but first, let’s get you ready. We can’t give them a hint that we’re planning something bigger.” She says in a hushed tone.I am getting impatient and mostly frustrated. I can’t wait for Blaze’s rescue. I have to be brave and trust my own strength. The salon staff surround me to do my make-up and hairs.“Ma’am, I apologize but you have to change your dress first, we can’t take risk with your hairstyle once we’re done and your dress has beads which may stuck in your hairs. Please follow me to the changing room, we’ll help you to get dressed.” One of the staff girls who has a strong built than other girls who are lean and attractive.“Sorry but we’ve strict orders to not let her disappear from our sight.” My chief
[ Scarlett ] “Scar, my sweet daughter, please open the door. I have a gift for you.” Mathew’s voice comes from the other side of the door and my heart again started racing in fear. What if he already found out that his biggest truth is out of the casket. It was been thirty minutes since I called Blaze to help me in escaping this house.He again knocks at the door.“Scarlett, please open the door. I am waiting here.” He uses a louder tone this time.“I am changing.” I shout to buy more time to think of a escape plan if he tries to hurt me.“Alright, but don’t take long because I worry about you a lot and it would force me to order my guards to break this door.” He gives me a hidden warning.“Give me two minutes, I am almost done.” I shout and think it’s better to let him come inside than giving him a reason to doubt me. I send a quick SOS text to Blaze and move towards the door to open the door.“You made me wait too long, Scar but anyways, I am happy that we’re still talking.” Mathew
