_Ruelle’s POV_

I watched in disbelief as Erika pushed a cart into the room. She gave me a smug look as she walked past, stopping right next to Killian.

“Hey Lian,” She called with an excessively sweet voice.

I think I might get diabetes.

“What are you doing?” Killian asked and I knew that he was talking to Erika, not me. His tone was flat and he stared straight ahead.

A frown formed on my face when Erika stood next to Killian, she held his arm as she spoke.

“Lian, you don't take care of yourself at all. Do you know what time it is? And you haven't even eaten,” She said while pouting her lips.

I looked between them, the frown on my face deepening.

Did Erika have feelings for Killian? Or am I just overthinking things? And what was that nickname she called him?

I know our marriage was merely one of convenience, but I still didn't like the way she was around him.

“I'm fine,” Killian said then pushed Erika away from him. I thought this was going to make her go away, but she doesn't.

    _Killian’s POV_“Wha-what do you mean,” Ruelle stuttered, a pink blush rising on her cheek. She was pretending to be bold the whole time, but suddenly she turned pink the moment I suggested that. I couldn't help but chuckle at how cute she was acting at the moment. “You were being so bold just now, what happened to that?” I asked her, smirking. I stared unfocused at nothing, playing the part of a blind man well. Nobody knew when I had regained my sight, and I didn't want to tell Ruelle till after our wedding and after she had proved that I could trust her. Who knows? She could have been sent by that man to keep an eye on me. Ruelle remained quiet, staring at me for a moment. She seemed to be lost in thoughts and I wondered what the little girl was thinking about. She was just twenty one and yet she agreed to get married to someone eight years older than she was. And worse of all, I was blind and crippled too. I had learned to not trust people, but Ruelle hadn't given me a rea

    “Greetings Mother,” Killian said, ignoring the question she had asked. I looked between the both of them, unsure of what to do, or say. When Killian touched my hand slightly, a signal, I knew I had to show my respect too “Greetings ma'am,” I said, sounding as polite as I could. She ignored my greeting, picking up her tea cup and taking a sip from it. I waited in silence for her to drink to her heart's content.“Is this the girl you're getting married to?” She asked, setting the cup down. “I thought you were getting married to that girl, the daughter of Mr. Athanas” I could hear her displeasure for me in her voice, her bright red lips still turned into an ugly frown. Mrs. Lexington was a middle-aged woman, she had light wrinkles on her face and her dark hair was tied into a tight bun at the top of her hair. I could smell her expensive perfume from where we stood, and I couldn't help but wrinkle my nose. It was too strong. “You must be talking about my younger sister,” I started,

    "Apologize for hitting my son now!” Anselm's father ordered and I blew out from my mouth, turning to him.What's it with these people and thinking they can hit me however they want?“Mr Kingston. I wouldn't tolerate you hitting my student however you wished. We would punish her according to the school guidelines. But hitting her is something we wouldn't condone,” The director said, but Mr. Kingston ignored him.“What are you waiting for? Get on your knees and beg!” He yelled at me, dropping spittles on my face. “Are you going to apologize to me too?” I asked coldly, glaring at him.His mouth opened and closed in shock, a vein on his forehead popping in anger.“How dare you?!” he raised his hand to hit me but I caught it, pushing him away. Anslem immediately stood up to catch his father, preventing him from falling.“Ruelle, are you insane?! You're going too far!” Anslem growled at me. I lazily shifted my gaze from his father who was red in anger to him. “Nobody said he was going t

    "Did the matter get resolved?” Killian asked and I nodded my head. When I remembered that he wasn't with me here, I had to speak up. “Yes, thank you,” I said softly. He was the first person to ever take my side. And even if I didn't know what he had done, I appreciated the fact that he stood by me without knowing whose fault it was. “You can do whatever it is you want to, I'd always back you up,” He said, and then the line went dead. I clutched my phone in my hand, a smile breaking out on my face. “Sister, what happened to you?!” Eileen said with a gasp, wiping the smile away from my face. I turned to her with a blank look, a brow coming up. “Did someone hit you?!” She gasped. At that moment, Mr. Athanas stormed out of the office. He turned to me with a glare and then stormed past. “Sister, what happened?” She asked but I pushed past her too, heading for the art room. I had a lot of things to do. “You're here again?” The art teacher said, a warm smile on her face. I s

    Mr. Lexington threw a glance at Erika, one that made her shiver quite noticeably. “You're against the marriage between them both?” The priest asked, seeming to be confused too. Erika opened her mouth to speak but Mr. Lexington cleared his throat once more. A silent warning to her. Everyone watched as Erika sat back down slowly, shaking her head and asking the priest to continue. She clenched her fist so tightly, digging her nails into her palm. “What were you thinking?” Her mother asked, slapping her thigh lightly. “You need to get rid of whatever feeling you have for Killian. He isn't the rich billionaire he was,” she said and Erika pouted. She knew all about that, and she was certain that she wouldn't want to be married to a blind crippled. Killian being blind was one thing, and his being both blind and crippled was another. Ruelle turned back to the priest asking him to continue. They had already wasted a few minutes because of Erika. She was tired and just wanted to go

    Ruelle instantly reached out for Killain's belt, pulling it out.“Are you sure you want to?” Killian asked, holding her wrist. Ruelle nodded once more and Killian finally let her. He leaned against the headboard, spreading his legs and Ruelle laid in-between them. His zipper was undone and Ruelle pulled down his briefs, and he sprung out immediately. Ruelle stared at him, swallowing thickly. “You're big,” she muttered making him laugh.“I'd take that as a compliment,” Killian replied. “Have you ever done this before?” Killian asked ticking his jaw. For some reason, he didn't like the idea of her being in his state for someone who wasn't him.She had never done this before, and she felt nervous too. What if I bit him? She thought to herself as she stared at him. Every book she read has the characters warning against using her teeth.“What are you thinking about?” Killian asked and Ruelle voiced out her fears. “And the book says not to use your teeth,” she ended, still staring a

    “You're overthinking it all. Whatever you're talking about must have been a realistic dream. You have school this morning, go get ready,” Killian said to her and she had no choice but to go with it all. Ruelle immediately rushed out of bed when she looked at the wall clock. She had to be in school early this morning and it was already past nine.Was she that tired to have overslept?“Do you feel okay? No hangover?” Killian asked and Ruelle shook her head. She raced into the bathroom, washing up quickly. Killian was surprised when Ruelle came out of the bathroom really fast. He figured that she had somewhere to be so he said nothing about it.Ruelle picked out a white dress and a brown cardigan, matching it with a brown beret and a black boot. Their wardrobe had been filled with clothes for her, and her old clothes were thrown out. She had no idea how that had happened but she was happy to have gotten clothes her size. Killian frowned when he saw what Ruelle wore. The dress stop

    Ruelle brought out an empty canvas, she had thought of drawing something new today but wasn't sure what. She needed something to distract herself from the thoughts that she kept getting, but she didn't really feel like doing any serious thing. She turned to the crumpled paper that lay next to the trash can. She had attempted drawing earlier and ended up drawing Killian with his face flushed, staring directly at her. She was totally immersed in the drawing, and last night kept playing over and over in her head. A silly thought came to mind and she smiled and decided to start with a stick man. She had just drawn the head when the door burst open, Gabriel storming in.His eyes roamed the entire place until they fell on Ruelle who was standing behind a canvas. Ruelle raised her siren eyes slowly, staring coldly at Gabriel. She hated being interrupted when she was drawing and she knew that Gabriel was only here to cause trouble for her.

That's impossible," Edward muttered, staring at the son he had discarded. "What did you think father? You'd plan my accident and expect me to just sit down and take it?" Killian asked. He had taken a different aura and was fierce now. Killian found no need to act weak, they had found out about his sight and legs.

The room temperature dropped a bit and I turned to look at Killian. ..his hands were folded in a fist and it seemed like he was holding himself back. “How dare you hit my wife?” Killian growled in anger. Mrs. Lexington grabbed my hair, pulling my head back. I bit back a cry as my eyes watered, letting her do whatever she wanted. “I told you to keep her in check, didn't I? Did you know what your wife has been doing? She has been smearing the Lexington name in mud!” Mrs Lexington exclaimed and I instantly knew that Eileen had said something to her.“What my wife has been doing has nothing to do with anyone and I would appreciate it if you stayed away from our business,” Killian warned, making Mr. Lexington laugh dryly. “Your wife has been going around whoring with men, she bears my surname and yet it's none of our business?!

My fingers dug into his skin, tears swelling in my eyes. “Do you want me to stop?” Killian asked, stopping immediately. He looked at me worried and I shook my head. “I'm fine,” I assured him. His eyes remained on mine as he started moving slowly, watching my face for any sign of pain. Slowly, the feeling of pain was replaced by pleasure and I felt myself wanting more. “Killian,” I moaned loudly, as his pace increased. Killian leaned in to kiss me, swallowing my loud moans. “Fuck, Ruelle,” He growled, taking my tits into his mouth. He sucked on one as he grounded the other with his hand. My arms wrapped around him, my fingers digging into his back. I could feel a building sensation in my lower abdomen and I threw my head back, whimpering. I wanted this, I wanted him.

You can't run from me, little mouse,” His voice sent shivers down my spine, making me feel things I wasn't certain I could feel. Killian had closed the distance between us, trapping me between his chest and the wall. I could smell his cologne from how close we were and I took a deep breath. “The last time you were drunk and I couldn't do anything to you. Now, you're going to beg me to stop touching you,” Killian whispered in my ears. His hot breath fanned my neck and I gulped. The worst part of it all was that I wanted him to touch me.

She stretched her back, feeling relieved about being done. Ruelle picked up her phone, opening it to finally go through it. 20 twenty missed calls. And all were from Mrs. Indrik but none from Killian. Ruelle frowned when she saw that truly Killain didn't call her, neither did he leave her a text. He occasionally sent her texts but she knew that it was Matthew that typed for him. “I know I'm the one who told him not to call, but didn't he find it important to find out how I was doing?” Ruelle asked in disappointment.
