Married to a Billionaire

First Step 😊😊

*STEPHINE'S POV*

After Luke and His family left I ran to my room and started to cry because I couldn't believe that the biggest play boy in high school was my fiance set by my mother. I couldn't go against her decision as I love my parents even though they left me when I was seven. 18 years have passed and a lot has happened. I'm scared that would Luke accept me if he knew my past.

Suddenly there was a knock on my door and i opened it.My aunt stood there.

"Stephine me and your uncle are going to shop for your wedding and make arrangements do you want to accompany us? "

I know she was trying her best to cheer me up.

I smiled," No Aunt I want to stay at home. you and uncle can go and choose whatever you think is the best I don't mind "

"As you wish my dear. We will not be home tonight so keep everything locked. I asked Luke to check on you occasionally even. Bye sweety."

"Bye Aunt."

* LUKE'S POV *

Stephine's aunt called and asked me to check on her occasionally as she and her husband won't be home and she would be all alone. I agreed as even my parents had to go to Paris.

At around 12AM my phone rang and when I say the caller ID it was Stephine. I answered it to discover she was crying.

"L...Luke ?? can you c...come over please?? I had a very bad nightmare and aunt isn't here to hold me. Can you please come right now???"

"Calm down Stephine I'll be there in ten. Hold on okay?? I'll see you soon baby.  Bye "

"Bye."

I immediately took my car keys and phone and house keys and rushed to her house. when I got in using the spare key her aunt gave me,  I saw that she was lying on the floor sobbing  and was hyperventilating as well and that too really bad. I picked her up in bridal style and took her to her room and put her on the bed and noticed the cuts she gave herself to hurt herself. I applied medicine on it and she started wincing so I blew on it gently and covered the cuts in bandages so that they may heal.

Then I woke her up to give her some medicine to relieve her pain but she refused to eat them and started throwing a tantrum.

"No! I wont eat any medicine. I hate medicine. They are disgusting. They kill people through their side effects. Keep them away from me"

I was shocked on her behavior, I was completely oblivious as to what happened in her childhood with her which caused her to be so fragile and broken from inside. I vowed to myself to protect her and help her get through her nightmares.

"Love please eat these or else I'll have to take you to the hospital straight way and you know they won't hesitate to give you pain relief injections. would you like that to happen. Huh?"

"No!I hate needles. fine I'll eat them give them to me."

"Good girl. Here take these. Now sleep. You need to rest."

"Stay with me please. I ... I can't stay alone at night."

"Sure love"

I kissed her forehead and pulled her closer to me. She started to sob again in her sleep so I rubbed her back gently in gentle circles and she calmed down. I smiled at seeing her innocent face and slowly drifted off to sleep as well after gently cleaning the tears from her cheeks.

* STEPHINE'S POV *

I woke up in the morning feeling dizzy and lightheaded. I couldn't remember completely what happened last night but I do remember that I had a nightmare and I called Luke over since I was alone in the house. Speaking of Luke .. where the hell is he???

Suddenly I smelt pancakes which I love to have for breakfast. I tried to get out of the bed and at the same time Luke entered with a tray of breakfast.

"Love please stay on the bed, you are too weak for now. Please rest"

"But Luke I feel fine, except for a slight bit dizziness" I whined

"Don't use that face on me love. you will stay in bed today and that's final. Here take your breakfast and eat your medicine as well"

"Medicine??? But why?? they are so yucky" I tried to change his mind.

"Just eat up Sweetie ... then if you are still in pain because of the cuts I'll take you to the hospital in the evening to get you checked" He smirked knowing I hate hospitals and i hate needles.

I sighed in defeat and did as he told me to. After eating he tucked me up and asked me to go to sleep again. As I was slipping into my Lala Land he kissed my forehead and said "I Love You my heartbeat"

I smiled and slipped deeper into my dreams.
