"Three rules!" He says icily. I open my eyes at the tone of his voice.
"Don't touch me! Don't touch my things! Don't talk to me!" He gritted out, eyes staring me down as though daring me to speak,
"W-what?" I blurted. He quirked an eyebrow up.
"Listen, this thing that happened today," he gestured at the space between us, a look of irritation flashed in his face.
"This is just a business deal! Don't expect anything from me. Don't think of me as your husband. We are only needed to keep up our appearances outside here, afterwards that's it. I don't want you touching, speaking or even looking at me. You're merely a waste of space in this house." His words pierced through my heart like a dagger, eyes brimming with unshed tears.
