I scoffed to myselfHe might as well fucking tape my mouth or tie me up and be done with it.Declan had not returned and it wasn’t like I wanted him to, I just had to know what the fuck was going on since I was now a member of their home.Scarlet Doyle, I thought.I would always be Scarlet Quinn no matter how idiotic my parents were. The curtains were drawn and the room remained dark which was the exact description of my life at the moment.I wondered if Cillian would bite my head off again if I asked for a canvas to be brought in so I could paint or knit… it was also something I enjoyed doing.I knew there was no way he was going to give me a phone for fear that I might notify the authorities although I knew they probably had half the pol
CHAPTER FOURCILLIAN“I think I like her”The door to my study slid open and Declan walked in with a stupid drunk grin on his face.I raised an eyebrow, waiting for him to explain what he meant.“I know I said I did not want to get married but after this morning and that girl talking back at you, I think I am going to enjoy her” He grinned, his eyes flashing with mischief.I did not like the fact that I understood his meaning and I wasn’t comfortable with him wanting to explore Scarlet. She looked far too innocent and did not seem like she was cut out for our world.I shook my head, reminding myself that it was none of my business and she was merely a means to the end.“So suddenly you want to be a devoted husband?” I asked him, my eyebrow arched.“Not devoted” He shrugged. “But a husband”“Do not fuck it up” I warned him sternly“What does it matter to you?” Declan shot back. “She is ours already and so is her father’s seaport. That is the reason for all of these, remember?”I sighed
CHAPTER THREESCARLETI cried myself to sleep… in the expanse of the room I was trapped in, doomed to marry one of the most dangerous man in New York.The lights trickled into the room I was in and woke me, reminding me of my gloomy life.I stretched, rising to my feet and reaching to the bathroom to take a bath. I did not know if the clock in the room was working but I could tell it was pretty late in the morning and I was hungry.I took a bath and donned a dress before checking the vanity mirror. My face still looked puffy from all the tears and I had dark circles under my eyes.I ran both hands through my hair, packing it in a pile atop my head before stilling my shoulders and heading out of the room.There was no way I was going to allow them keep me in my room. I soon located the dining room and I walked in, stopping at the door when three set of eyes reached me, pinning me to the spot.I could only recognize the man from before and he was seated at the head of the table so I ass
CILLIANShe wasn’t supposed to be here so soon, especially when I hadn’t spoken to my brother, Declan about the marriage.“Take her to the guest room and keep her there till I say otherwise” I ordered the maid who had brought her in.“Which of the guestrooms, sir?”“Any of them for fuck sakes, Maria” I snapped.The woman jumped and so did Scarlet who remained staring at me like she was seeing a figment of her imagination.I did not think she too was properly briefed about the marriage but she would be and she should consider me merciful for deciding her as payment was enough for her father to keep his fucking head.I would have very much liked to cut it off but I needed what he had to offer.“Yes sir” Maria bowed, beckoning on Scarlet who rushed after her like she wanted to be anywhere else but in the same room as me.I watched them leave almost at the same time Declan walked in. He seemed surprised at the presence of another woman in the house especially in broad daylight. Normally w
SCARLETOne would think there would be no way a girl can be forced into marriage especially to a man she did not even know but trust my father, Patrick Quinn to think it is the best of ways to settle the debt he owes.“I will not be marrying a total stranger, papa… please tell him, mama that I will not be marrying one of the Doyle boys” I begged“And what is wrong with the Doyle boys?” My father argued, his eyes filled with rage.It would be the first time I would be outrightly disobeying him and i knew from the look on his face that he wasn’t having it.“They are killers” I screamed at him. “Surely you have heard about them and how they treat their enemies? They have heads of men who crossed their paths hanging from their gates and you want me to marry one of them? I am your daughter but you are sending me to my death"“Isn’t that the more reason why you should help your father, Scarlet? He owes them a huge sum of money and this is the only way he can pay back” My mother added.She
