Eliana Brown~•~I was already starting to regret agreeing to marry William Caddel.Sure he was rich, but apart from his name and age, I knew next to nothing about him. I knew nothing about his career, how he handled situations, and how he lived in general yet I blindly agreed to marry him. I didn’t even have any time to get prepared because we would be having a court marriage soon. Since there were no guests, we just needed to get our marriage license and get married. Fuck me.I rested my head against the window, wondering how my life was going to move from here. I had made a lot of impromptu decisions these past few weeks but this one was the biggest of all. I was getting married. I’d always wanted to get married. Harry and I had been together for six years and I wanted to get married to him but he wanted us to properly get our lives together first. Now that I had left him, I saw that he was evading it on purpose and I was thankful I didn’t tie myself down to someone as inconsiderat

Eliana Brown~•~“WHAT???” Catherine exclaimed. “What do you mean by getting married? I haven’t kept in touch for one week and you’re getting married?”I stayed silent and allowed her to continue ranting.“I always thought I was going to get married before you, even when you were still with Harry because let’s be real, everyone knew you weren’t going to end up marrying him. You just broke up like a month ago. How are you getting married? Why are you getting married? Who are you getting married to?” She stared at me, waiting for a response.“What question should I answer first?” I joked but Catherine wasn’t in the mood for joking.“Who are you getting married to?”“William Caddel.”There was a long pause where Catherine just stared at me like I had grown two heads. When I didn’t take back my words, her jaw dropped. “No way! William Caddel? The billionaire man you owe twenty-five thousand? That one?”I nodded. “And I don’t owe him anymore.”“What? He forgave your debt because no offense

Eliana Brown~•~Two days later, I was standing inside the private elevator in my apartment complex that led to the penthouse above. To say I was nervous was an understatement. Since there were no stops, I got to the penthouse in less than a minute and the doors of the elevator opened to reveal William Caddel leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He was still in formal attire as though he had just gotten back from work.When he saw me, he pushed off the wall and approached me. “You’re early.” He checked the watch on his wrist. He had told me to come over by seven o’clock. It was six-fifty-eight. “I like that.”I didn’t know how to reply to that so I just went with “thanks.” I stepped out of the elevator just as he reached for the shoe rack and placed a pair of slippers in front of me. Getting the hint, I took off my shoes and put them on, following him inside when he resumed walking. They fitted perfectly, making me wonder if he usually had women over.I came to a pause. Wh

Eliana Brown~•~A week later, William and I had gotten our marriage license and we had also signed the prenuptial agreement. When we visited his grandfather to tell him about our progress, excluding the prenup of course, he suggested we get married immediately.However, William stood his ground and said we would wait for a month. In reality, I knew he wanted the prenup to marinate first so I didn’t say anything about it and just let him convince his grandfather. Besides, I wasn’t rushing to get married to him.It was also going to be my first day at my new job and I was pretty nervous.[William: if you’re ready, come downstairs, I’ll give you a ride.]William sent me a text as I just finished getting ready. I was supposed to have breakfast but since he was ready to leave, I forfeited breakfast and went downstairs.[Me: the parking lot?] I texted him back as I put on my shoes and exited the house. The complex had an underground parking lot. Sadly, I didn’t have a car.[William: no, I’

William Caddel~•~“Did I hear correctly?” Duke exclaimed as soon as Eliana left my car. “You are getting married to her? I’d think it’s just your delusion but she didn’t oppose it.” His voice portrayed his surprise. I hadn’t told him and George yet about the trip to the lake house or the fact that we were getting married.I glared at him. “Watch your mouth. I’m still your boss.”He scoffed, undoing his seatbelt so he could turn to face me properly. “I knew you were obsessed with her but I didn’t think you’d be getting married to her six weeks after being in contact with her. How did you convince her?” He paused. “Wait, did you threaten her?”I rolled my eyes. He was so dramatic yet he acted so mysterious at work. When I first met Duke, he barely spoke, only talking to me whenever it was necessary. Now, he yapped even more than George.“You manipulated her into leaving her job. You manipulated her into staying in your apartment complex. Now you’re manipulating her into getting married

Eliana Brown~•~My first day of work was quite bland.After they showed me around, they took me to my desk and left me there for the rest of the day. I felt like an intern all over again. Everyone was busy and I just had to sit there and stare.Not wanting to look idle, I turned on the computer in front of me and started browsing through several sites, trying to learn more about 3D printing.Before five, the desks started to empty one after the other. It was the end of the day but I didn’t know whether I could leave or not. The head of the sales department was still in his office and I hadn’t been productive throughout the day.I let out a sigh and shut down the computer, looking around when I got a text on my phone. Grateful for the distraction, I quickly checked it.[William: you done?][Me: I guess][William: you guess? I have to work for one more hour. I’m in a meeting. I’ll come pick you up when I’m done. Can you wait?]We just talked about the possibility of being seen earlier

Eliana Brown~•~William paused and slowly arched an eyebrow at me. I immediately felt embarrassed. I sounded like a jealous girlfriend.“Right about now.” He murmured and brought out his phone to book a cab. I turned to the side, looking out the window the car zoomed away from the building. Why did I say that out loud? “And done…”I gritted my teeth. William was doing it on purpose. From their interactions, I could tell my boss admired him. She wanted him but I wasn’t so sure how William felt about her. It didn’t exactly seem like he liked her but he was entertaining her which was somehow worse.I took a deep breath. That wasn’t my problem to worry about, was it? They were old enough to do whatever they liked. They only had a six-year age difference while I was younger than William by sixteen years. Even if I liked him, which I didn’t, I was too young for him.“How was your first day?” William asked, bringing my attention back to him.I cleared my throat and found the courage to face

William Caddel~•~“We are all friends and we share everything with each other, but somehow, Will made the decision to get married without telling any of us.” “If he hadn’t spoken about it in front of me, I never would have known.”“And if you didn’t tell, I’d be in the dark up till now.”The two of them paused and stared at me, waiting for me to say something. When I didn’t, George scoffed. “Of course, he doesn’t even care that he hid it from us.”I let out a breath. I didn’t hide shit from them. Duke was my secretary and George drove me around sometimes. They knew almost everything going on in my life and I never had to relay it to them. I wasn’t used to telling them my business because I knew they would find out about it eventually.“Are we invited at least?”“No.” I finally spoke up.“Why the fuck not?” Duke exclaimed.“I told you it’s not a big deal. Grandpa is the only one invited. We’re only getting married because of him.”“Not a big deal?” George snorted. “The woman you’ve b

Eliana Brown~•~For the second time that morning, I almost fell over but I quickly held on to the wall to prevent my ass from kissing the ground.I turned around to see that William was inside the kitchen, cooking. Didn’t he say he didn’t know how to cook? “Uh, yeah, I have plans with my friends.”“So you’re not having breakfast then?”I tried to look past him but I couldn’t see anything. After drinking a lot last night, I woke up hungry. “What are you making?”He shrugged. “Come find out.” Then he turned around to focus on the stove.My mouth fell open. Was he tempting me with food now? On purpose? Or did he want me to approach him so he could scold me about last night?I never liked going out to eat alone and breakfast was right in front of me. I was still contemplating going downtown but when my stomach rumbled in protest, I knew I had no choice but to go back where I came from.With a relenting sigh, I went back inside and dropped my bag on the couch on my way to the kitchen.

Eliana Brown~•~I didn’t think things through when I jumped away from William.I was so close to falling and hitting my head on the table when his hand came around my waist and pulled me even closer to him.My scream faded into a gasp at our proximity. Had he been awake all this while? Why did he pretend to be asleep? I needed to dig a hole and bury myself as soon as possible! I was mortified. My cheeks were flaming red. How did I find new ways to embarrass myself in front of him every time?“Are you good?” His morning voice was even deeper than his normal voice and the raspiness caught me off guard.I nodded ferociously and moved away from him, still sitting on the couch because my legs were shaky as fuck.I stared at the table and saw the bottle of wine we had shared last night. I had drank most of it. Was that why I ended on him last night? Who slept off first? What happened? Did I do anything stupid?I looked at him, wanting to ask what happened last night but I didn’t want to em

William Caddel~•~I stared at her. Her cheeks were flushed and her nose was beginning to turn red. Her eyes were hazy but she was able to maintain eye contact with me.I wondered what kind of drunk she was. Would she remember what happened the next day? Or would she forget everything? I didn’t know exactly how many glasses she had taken but it was enough to give her liquid courage.She reached up to poke my cheek, surprising me. “I’m talking to you, Will.” Her voice was slow and lazy. It was also the first time she was calling me Will. “Why did you marry me? Do you like me?”“What if I do?”Her drunk ass totally ignored my words. “Are you using me just like the movie? Hmm? Tell me.” She didn’t even wait for me to speak. “What’s going to happen now that we’re married? What’s going to happen tonight? It’s our wedding night right?”I wasn’t quite sure what she meant by those questions and I didn’t want to assume because I had a dirty mind. “Why don’t you tell me why you married me inste

William Caddel~•~Eliana was officially my wife. She didn’t change her last name for obvious reasons but that didn’t take away the fact that she was legally mine. Well, she was mine in every sense of the word. She just didn’t know that yet.Since it wasn’t a huge ceremony, she had spent the previous day moving into my penthouse. It was a Friday and I had work but for the first time in a while, I took a day off to be able to help her with moving in.She didn’t have to buy furniture for the apartment downstairs so moving wasn’t much of a problem for her. The only things she had to pack were her personal things like clothes, body care, flowers, and the rest. She didn’t sleep in my house that night though. She slept at her apartment and went straight to my grandfather’s house this morning to start getting ready for the wedding.It was our wedding night and the first day we would be living together as a married couple. We sat across from each other, staring. I knew it was awkward for her

Eliana Brown~•~It was real. I was actually getting married to the stranger I met less than three months ago. I was getting married to William Caddel. It was crazy. It wasn’t like we were dating or anything. My impulsive decision led us here, which was why I was so nervous about walking down the aisle.Yes, we were having a regular wedding. There were only five guests; William’s grandfather, Catherine and her boyfriend, and William’s two drivers, who I later found were his friends, George and Duke.George was an artist who drove him sometimes while Duke was his secretary. They were his closest friends and I’d seen them once or twice in the past month. Well, I’d seen Duke a lot since we worked in the same building but I’d interacted with him once or twice.I was straying from the point.I was getting married today. I was in my long white dress that William had paid for and the ceremony was about to start. All I had to do was walk down the aisle. It was going to be a very short event.
