"Shying away from your wifely duties, little wife?" He questioned in a husky voice, lowering his face to hers. Ariel quickly turned her head away, "No, Mr. Chaz, you're misunderstanding me again," She voiced quietly. Aiden scoffed, not believing her. He looked down at his chest and found her slim hand still placed against it. "You're quite corny, Ariel. Saying you don't want me, yet you're hands are all over me," Aiden whispered in her ear. *** After overhearing her father and stepmother planning how they were going to marry her off in place of her Stepsister to the unsuccessful son of their debtor. That night, Ariel plans her run away, but that same night, Ariel mysteriously gets kidnapped. Waking up to discover she'd been kidnapped by the same people she was trying to run away from made her life seem like it had hit rock bottom. Now, she was going to be forced into a marriage with a man she didn't know and didn't love. But, would everything remain the same for her when she discovers that her new husband was the richest Billionaire in the country? Chaz Aiden was a successful billionaire with billions of businesses all over the world and zero interest in women, especially after his mother had divorced his father for a richer man. When his grandmother asked him to do him a favor by marrying the Hudson family's daughter, he knew it was for the sake of greed. He swore to make his new wife's life a living hell, making sure he reminded her that she would always be an object he purchased, contracted and never to be loved.
Jess was sitting in front of Ariel, oddly quiet.
That evening, they were in a park, sitting aside and watching others enjoy their walks with either their loved ones or children.
Ariel had been the one to call Jess and invite her out. She needed somewhere to go since she couldn't be in the same house as Moon.
She had refused to leave after Aiden asked her to be friends with her; Moon became coy and started to sit beside Aiden, leaning her body against his at the slightest opportunity she got.
That wasn't what Ariel wanted for her mental health; she hated it when it was very obvious how manipulating someone was yet there was someone who refused to see that part of her. It irritated her to the core, so instead of staying in the house and watching something annoying, she preferred to come out to the park and breathe the fresh air and enjoy the good sights too.
