''You promised''
It was nothing more than a whisper.
But he heard her loud and clear.
He gave her his word and she knew his word meant a lot.
He filled her with hope and security.
Her heart broke and the proof of her heartbreak was on her facial expression.
She couldn't take it anymore it was to much to handle.
So many she want to say but the only thing that came out her throat trough her mouth was a heartbreaking sob.
He took her in his arms and felt the tears trough the material of his suit to his skin.
She pulled away from his embrace and with all the last of energy she had in her body she spoke
''You shattered my heart, you promised me you wouldn't.
But you did. And now I want you to accept the fact that you broke our promise.
I'm now Mrs. Van Santen so walk away and let me live my life with my husband''
''You owe me''
He gave her one last glance and then he pressed his lips with hers.
A kiss that washed al the pain away.

"For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --
One Decision
"Why don't you let something cross that face of yours?" This guy was tough work. And that made me even more determined. "Do you have any idea how humiliated I felt to wake up in an empty bed and find out from a guard that you left for God knows what?!" I shouted into his face. His eyes turned into literal slits that only the grey could be seen. A menacing dark look crossed his features, too strong and harsh that I started to doubt my own actions. I was slammed against the wall, with Ace looming over me. His angry face came up close, making my breath hitch. The grey eyes stared into mine, his strong hands stopping me from moving my wrists that were pinned against the wall beside my head. His lips were in a thin line as it came near me, hovering over my lobe. "You will break yourself trying to break me. We don't want that now, do we?" ###### #1 - husband #1 - wife #1 - romance #6 - humor #16 - arrangedmarriage #1 - billionaire #3 - featured #2 - sadromance #5 - dramaromance #1 - past #1 - emotionalrollercoasterComplete

On the night her boyfriend got engaged to another woman,Sophia drowned her sorrows in a haze of alcohol and made a daring choice-spending the night with Nathaniel, the brother of her boyfriend's fiancée. Sophia sought a man with power and influence to shield her from the sting of betrayal. Nathaniel, in turn, was drawn to her youthful beauty and captivating confidence. For a time, it felt like more than just an arrangement. Sophia believed Nathaniel might truly care for her. But her hopes were dashed when he revealed his plans for a strategic marriage, leaving her only a check and a cold farewell. He expected tears, accusations, maybe even a scene. But Sophia merely smiled, pocketed the check, and walked out with her dignity intact. Her parting words were simple and cutting: "Goodbye, Nathaniel. I doubt we'll ever meet again." Fate, however, had other plans. When their paths crossed once more, Sophia was no longer the heartbroken woman he'd left behind. Stronger and more radiant than ever, she had someone new by her side. Nathaniel's jealousy was undeniable, his voice raw with regret. "Sophia," he said, his tone heavy with emotion, "it was me you loved first." She met his gaze with calm amusement, her smile laced with irony. "Nathaniel, you're the one who walked away. If you want a date now, you'll have to get in line." The very next day, Nathaniel appeared with a dazzling diamond ring and a fortune worth billions, dropping to one knee in front of her. "Sophia, I'm done waiting. Marry me."
