Jaxen
"So I'm basically his trophy wife now for as long as he wants me I guess. I have to stay at his place and everything." Adara says as she pops another popcorn into her mouth.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3MDn4ZaoX
"What's so bad about that? I've heard he's got good money."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWel2jJqg73
"You're not listening, are you? I don't care about the money. I just don't wanna be tied down all the time. And the fact that my brothers knew what they were planning and yet they told me nothing."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcPeaFplh0
"Probably because they knew that you run," I smirk.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02jIfNXNGT
"I mean of course I would! But-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCGlmfPlg4
"So let me get this straight. You don't want a husband?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53gPeMsG5H
"I mean I do, later in life, I guess. But I want to at least have the chance to get to know them and shit."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9CyQmVpZF
"True but Rey isn't all that bad from what I've heard. He's good with the ladies-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1nCLYdq2f
"I don't care! He could have the biggest dick on this earth and I still wouldn't marry him. I prefer men who don't buy me, thank you."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kB81F8XpF
I laugh a little, thinking of how this would all go down when Rey arrives.
Our conversation came to an abrupt stop when we both hear a sharp knock at his front door.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfYXq1Wcj1
"See that bookshelf over there? There's pull the first bottom book go inside and don't make any noise. I'm guessing they've caught up to you."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywfSaih3G8
"I thought you said they wouldn't find us! Damnit!"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmb3Eg2kun
244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvBhhDKvmS
She quickly nods and does as I tell her to, trying to move as quietly as possible. Once I see her slip inside the dark room I turn to open the door.
"Where is she, Jaxen," Rey asks as he looks around me.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujUhdDbtjG
"Where's who?" I reply calmly.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsAJ7sJ1do
"You know exactly who I'm talking about. Adara. I know she's here."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83jpNNAbUr
"Oh, Zarcone's daughter? Why the hell would she be here?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjPwo3AfDh
"That's none of your Goddamn business."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCGCyqOJTZ
"Wait let me guess, if you're looking for her here then that must mean that she's running. Running from you or her parents I suppose?" I might not be a part of the Diamonde's anymore but I still hear things."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytU831k27d
"She's just scared. I'm not going to hurt her. She's my wife."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOzCp7szSk
"Wife? We're doing arranged marriages now? That's a new low for Zarcone. Didn't you ever think to be in her shoes? What if she doesn't want to be your wife?" I ask, cocking my head to the side.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi77aP90UKu
"I'll discuss that with her. But I won't be able to do that unless she gets out and talks to me."
"I'm here. Talk," she says as she emerges from the bookshelf. With a blazing red pistol in her hand pointed directly at Rey. She looks fucking gorgeous. Red gun, red summer dress. It's too bad that she belongs to Rey. And he never likes to share. I give her a look not to do anything crazy. I should've known she wouldn't listen and stay put. She never does.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30TzEAHM1j
"Come home with me and we'll talk about this whole situation," Rey says as he looks at her.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMek1yRoHnn
"No. How will I know that you won't just take me and keep me in your basement or something?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBtB5mdltV
"Drop the gun Adara, I just want to talk."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9Z9zIxMfO
"Talk? You and my parents pretty much just ruined my already miserable life. If you wanted me as your wife all you had to do was show up at my doorstep and ask my father for my hand in marriage as any normal person does."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHERsW5Z0j
"I know, look. This wasn't my decision. I just-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqhxqJuuWl
"It was your decision. You didn't have to buy me.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUWISqtauH
"I was trying to help you!"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJchuN80SAt
"Help me?! With what! This isn't helping me at all."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaxeI2Pykm
"I'm sure you don't want to go back to your father? I know how much you hate him."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeDIfB3qwN
"I don't-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUpjR1xNZd
"Don't fucking lie to me."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeHLXwMXtu
"She can stay with me." I interrupt.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCM3bLqkfuJ
Rey whips his head to now face me and he looks livid almost.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBn7C0Fwr5
"Fuck no. When I bought you, I planned on keeping you. I'm not changing my mind."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M2gz0l20c
"Then I'm not going with you," Adara says sternly.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkVP6fePY0
"You know I can just take you right?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP7TrU9ixJ
"Oh, so you're threatening me now? I have the gun here."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8eCxzoyVC
"And I don't have one?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QLSlEPQ3O
"Alright stop. Both of you bickering annoys the shit out of me. Since he doesn't want you staying here, you go to him or back to your father's."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPJbO6RK4Z
"I thought you were on my side Jaxen! You know what, fine. I'll go with you and we'll talk. I rather eat dirt than go back to that unstable household."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPdOL9gAh3
"Let's go th-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lcnp7JGsp
"But, I want my things and I want Melanie to come with me."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1jzjVLofu
"Done. Let's go."
I sigh and watch her go upstairs to get all of her things.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyYBLFCIvg
"If you weren't working for me, you could've been an actor. You didn't need to do all that shit."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLuIVPuCL1
"I had fun doing it," I grin before I face him.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUoB1E6Cyb
"You really don't want her to know that we know each other?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiVmGMlOmv
"Fuck no, at least, not yet anyway. I just don't want her to feel like I just handed her over. She already hates the hell out of you from what I've heard. The thought of her marrying you is making her sick to the stomach. Like she actually gagged. It was quite funny to watch actually." I lightly laugh.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefH8KwVM4h
"Well, she has no choice. Wait until I tell her that she needs to have my babies-"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj0elDoUe6
"What?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZtn0ftErU
"Yeah, I need her to have my heir."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIRWaWE6dq
"You're kidding, right? Please tell me that's a joke. Do you think that she's going to let you even go near her? Good luck with that." I say before I go upstairs to help Adara with her things.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pzF7zuLvV
