"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.
Aiden was the first to wake up; thankfully, he felt better.
His headaches were all gone and he was as good as new. He paused when he felt someone lying on his arm and slowly, he opened his eyes.
It was Ariel.
She was sleeping so peacefully in his arms. But, He frowned and tried to recall how they ended up together on one bed last night.
He didn't need to think much, because soon, memories of everything he did last night came back to him.
He remembered all the things he did and said, and he could vividly remember when she called him a liar.
He had kissed her, even if she didn't kiss him back, at least she didn't push him away.
He smiled as he stared at her sleeping form.
What was he supposed to do with her now? He didn't think he wanted to let her go anymore.
But he knew Ariel would never have that, she hated him so much by now, and trying to ask her to stay beside him was like going on an impossible mission.
