The Bargain Racheal considers revealing the truth
In her hands, Luna was holding a huge bunch of red roses that was shaped like a giant teddy. Racheal’s face involuntarily melted. This was the cutest thing she had seen in a while, She plucked the white card perched on it. Not a secret admirerSteffanIt simply read. She burst out laughing, this man`s jealousy was silly. If their little steamy moment earlier was not proof enough, she knew now for sure that he was trying to woo her. He was picking up exactly from where he had stopped at that dinner where all her problems had worsened. She was not sure about the best way to react to his new attention. She took the rose teddy from Luna and admired it. If she had any good sense this was a no brainer, a man who had abandoned her at a cruel interrogation room was bad news, the brightest red flag and did not deserved any second chances. But she obviously was a silly girl, with was a gaping hole in heart that wanted to be filled with love, a hole that her mother’s sudden disappearance
The Bargain I'll protect you
As Racheal progressed with her story, it became more difficult to speak. Her throat was clogged with tears, so she left out the part of the story where her step-mother used to starve her.She walked away when she was done, changed into a nightdress in the closet, and climbed into bed. A few minutes later, Steffan climbed in beside her and carressed her hair.“Don’t cry.” He said. His gentle tone made her cry even more, and it irritated her. How did she suddenly become this sobbing mess? He did not pull her close like last night, instead he rested his chin against her hair, till she quieted down. He finally placed his finger beneath her chin, and tilted her face up. Racheal found herself staring into a pair of clear blue eyes. All the anger that had been there not so long ago was now replaced with… Adoration?“I’ll protect you.” Steffan whispered to her. “From today, your enemies will be mine.” The force in his eyes made her heart stop. They stared at each other wordlessly.“You may
The Bargain Racheal observes something weird
Racheal repeatedly caught Isaac stealing glances at her in the back seat, from the rearview mirror in front, where he sat beside the driver. She ignored him. She knew it was a weird request to visit with someone who got married two days ago, but she had to see Skylar. If Skylar was too busy to see her, she would gladly return home. Since this was an arranged marriage, she doubted the couple needed time alone, Skylar may even be eager to see a friend. She stared out the window, trying not to think of the selfishness of it all. She just could not help her urgent need to see Skylar and ask what she discussed with brother, Steffan, about the time she was detained in the interrogation room. Skylar had tried to tell her something about it repeatedly in the past, but could not because of interruptions. She also had to know why the young woman was always certain Steffan was in love with her? Did he tell her that? If he did, what about the conversation she herself heard between him and h
The Bargain Skylar in trouble?
Hamza’s mother walked towards Racheal, gently placed her hand on the small of her back and began to lead her away like a child. Racheal found herself following the woman out.“I am sorry we could not chat over tea. I hope you visit again, I am really interested in making your acquaintance.” The woman said, while Racheal found herself meekly following her out. Skylar was there, and if these people were lying about it, that meant she was in trouble. She remembered how Sklar called her with tears on that day of her engagement.“I will tell Skylar you called on my next video call with the couple. You can call her too. You have her contact number I believe.” The woman said, looking up at her. They were now standing outside in the hot sun, near her convoy. All her guards stood like statues. “Yes.” Racheal found herself responding, although she did not know Skylar’s contact number, because she had never had the need to. She did not own a phone. She caught Isaac’s eyes, he bowed slightly
The Bargain Can Racheal trust Jade?
Racheal was done with the form in no time. Isaac hurried forward with Steffan’s card when she tried to pay. She realised she did not mind much anymore, unlike that first day. A smile crossed her face when she remembered how she had thrown a tantrum with his money that day. She shopped for some yoga items at the other side of the building, all the costs were covered in the membership fee. As she changed out of her dress into one of the yoga fits, a beautiful yoga jumpsuit, she noticed how sad her face looked in the mirror even to her. She could not stop worrying about Skylar.She stepped out of the bathroom, and Isaac took the shopping bag now holding her dress, and handed it over to the nearest guard to take it out to the car. He then led the way back to the studio. Racheal arrived just in time for the afternoon session. The yoga instructor smiled, and bowed to her as she walked in, while her guards remained hanging around at the door.The other women in the yoga studio stared a
The Bargain Racheal stands up to Danna Sherrod
Racheal cleared her throat and shifted in her seat. Although she liked Jade and was hoping they would grow to become good friends, she did not think she knew the woman well enough to tell her such private things about herself. If there was anything she had learned in her short stay in Yin, it was that people were not truly who they first appeared to be. She could not continue trusting people so easily.So till she was sure where Jade’s loyalty truly lay, she would never tell the woman private information about herself. She was thinking about a polite way to avoid her question, when she noticed a man enter the cafe, and begin to walk towards them. Men in dark suits followed the man closely.Racheal squinted, concentrating on the face of one of the guards. He looked familiar, but she could not remember where she knew him from. She moved her attention back to the elegant man walking in front of them, and this time, her eyes opened in recognition.This was the prince of spain.“Hey,
The Bargain Steffan defends Racheal
“What did you just say?” Danna Sherrod asked, looking at Racheal with surprise. Then her face morphed into a furious mask. “How dare you speak to me like that?”“You truly expect to keep disrespecting me and I say nothing?” Racheal asked, not at all surprised that the woman was shocked at her talking back. Up till now, everybody was familiar with and even used to the quiet Racheal, who never fought back when she was harassed. “How dare you? Have you forgotten where you are, I can have you locked up, and your life miserable.” Danna Sherrod was so pissed her face was almost purple with rage. Racheal was not scared of her threats. She now knew the woman did not have any real power in the presidential villa, all she could do was scheme in the dark with her partner-in-crime Thalia.“Just like you had me locked up in that hell hole for a crime you commited?” Racheal asked, walking up to her. Danna Sherrod stared at her with hostility.“What the hell are you talking about?” She asked. Sh
The Bargain Racheal and Steffan on a quest
“I had questions, I know the answer now.” Racheal responded to Steffan’s questions, hoping he would not ask anymore.They both stared at each other silently, and she found her mind wandering to memories she did not want it to. Steffan stood up and began to walk towards her. He was still in his work suit, and he looked insanely handsome. She panicked. She was not ready yet, she needed to think some more, and sort all she had just learned into the right boxes.“I think Skylar is in trouble.” She blurted out. Steffan froze in his track. “What?” “I saw her. I saw her, she was hitting on the window and then she was not there again.” Racheal said. Steffan was looking at her in confusion. She knew she must have sounded incoherent, but the image was still haunting her, and the thought that she had failed her friend. She could not live with herself if anything happened to Skylar. “What are you talking about?” Steffan asked. “I sent you a voicenote to let you know. Did you not get it?”
