2. did i stutter?

song- Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day

Blaze

Throughout the meeting with Mr Knight, he only talked about how well his company used to do and added mentions of the difficulties he's facing. Getting bored with his rambling, I cut him off. "How exactly would you like me to help Mr Knight, please get to the point."

"I would like you to invest in our company," David said.

"Mr Knight your company is almost ruined. I will get nothing by investing in your company."

"I understand Mr Caddel, what would you like Mr Caddel?"

I looked towards the girl who nervously sat there pinching the skin of her hand. Pathetic. There was a battle going on in my head. Should I propose the offer or not? If I do then my parents would stop pressurizing me and I would get to see them happy. Besides, I don't love and can use this girl to my benefit. I can always hook up with other chicks while I am married, I'd basically own this bitch.

I looked towards my parents who looked shocked and looked at me expectantly. I smirked, "Your daughter's hand in marriage." I said. My parents were struck and were still trying to process what I said. I looked at Mr Knight who was gaping at me.

"I'm sorry Mr Caddel, my daughter? This worthless girl?" He looked at me and said.

"Yes David, did I stutter?"

"You have got yourself a deal, Mr Caddel."

I looked towards my future wife who looked like she was going to piss herself or have a mental breakdown. "Hello again Skye, I'm sure you're delighted to marry me. Spending daddy's money and using people for it is what people like you do best. Now you'll have even more money to spend like the whore you are" I said with a sickeningly sweet voice. I watched as she shivered but didn't respond.

"The wedding will be held on 14th March, yes that is next week" I added looking at the expression on David's face. "Don't worry David the arrangements will be made. I will see you then." I walked away from the group and was making y way to my BMW when I heard the sound of running feet behind me. I turned to look at a sobbing Skye, with her heels in her hand, running as fast as she could away from the restaurant and me. I felt a pang in my chest and a slight uneasiness looking at her in that state but I chose to ignore it. For reason unknown, I decided to follow her in my car. I drove behind her most of the time and she didn't seem to realize. She was a fast runner, she had unbelievable amounts of energy and she looked like she had gone this a hundred times before.

What are you hiding future wifey?

I follow her until she suddenly stops in her tracks and turns around, looking directly at me. The street light was making her face glow and she looked like an angel. She was drop-dead gorgeous. I'm sure there are boys running after her everywhere she goes, practically begging her to fuck them. My stomach stirred at the thought.

don't forget that she's a gold digger blaze, she only wants your money, she's just like the rest of them. She's just like her and she embarrassed you remember I said to myself

Panic flashed through her eyes as she staggered back. She looked petrified and was shaking. Frowning, I got out of the car and approached her. She took backward steps, getting ready to flee. "Don't you dare run. Stay right there" I said to her harsher than I had intended to. She stood rooted to the ground. I approached her and reached out to grab her hand. Electricity flowed through my hand and my heart did summersaults in my chest upon feeling her silky smooth skin. I couldn't help but notice how she flinched when I touched her. I ignored the hurt I felt before speaking.

"Now I have you all to myself, Angel. You'll have to do everything I want you to do. This is payback for what you did to me at the ball."

Saying that I walked back to my car without giving her a glace. I drove passed her crying figure, helplessly standing here. I smirked to myself thinking about the fun I would have with her. God, I hope she's a virgin. I'd be surprised if she was one though, with a face and body like hers.

Skye

I ran out of the restaurant in tears. I had a nagging feeling that there was someone following me, but I was too caught up in my emotions. For some reason I stopped running and turned around, catching a pair of green eyes that belonged to none other than Blaze, sitting in his car. I started shaking. He swiftly got out of his car making his way toward me. I took a few steps before he snapped at me ordering me not to move. My mind kept replaying what he had said to me at the restaurant, "I'm sure you're delighted to marry me. Spending daddy's money and using people for it is what people like you do best. Now you'll have even more money to spend like the whore you are."

He reached for my hand causing me to finch. I tried concealing it but I know he saw it. His pupils dilated and some sort of emotion flickered through his eyes but he covered it quickly. "Now I have you all to myself, Angel. You'll have to do everything I want you to do. This is payback for what you did to me at the ball." He spat at me and walked away without sparing me a second glance. As he made his way towards his car I saw a tattoo peeking out at the base of his neck, the rest covered by his suit.

I stood there with tears streaming down my face, questioning my exitance. I took out a pack of cigs I kept in my bra just in case and lit one up, getting lost in the smoke as I made my way back towards the Knight Mansion, sure about getting a beating later. The answer to why he looked familiar pieced into place. He was the guy who tried getting into my pants before I nutted him. He was getting his revenge now, by marrying me. I knew this marriage was going to be anything but easy. He'll have his way with me. I cried my heart out questioning God what sins I committed to have a life like this.
