Synopsis
"....She was his drug, he was her water..." ............. Arissa had always been an avid fan of freedom. She hated nothing more than being tied down to a relationship, especially when she was still in her early twenties. Yet, her parents had come up with an ultimatum marriage proposal. Strong-willed, confident, independent, and wild Arissa was forced to be humble to her parents and grant their wish of doing something extreme to her to save the life of someone she loves to a fault... And let's not forget, she lives for that person. Fast forwarding to Nicklaus Wyatt, we have a successful, cold-hearted, and Dominant CEO. On the outside, he is the most successful man on planet Earth and the most eligible bachelor but on the inside, he is an extremely damaged and broken soul of no repairs. His mysterious Aura also made it extremely hard for anyone to come close so, they just admired him from a distance. He only has one wish and that is to expand his empire more and not some stupid marriage proposal. So, do we think he would accept the marriage deal?? ....... "I'm your wife and yet, we live like strangers do!" Arissa seethed, gripping his tie in her fist as she tried to support herself. "Of course, it would eventually result in something as ridiculous as a cheating scandal. We aren't even acting like a normal couple should!" She emphasized lowly. Bringing her hand to wrap around his neck, she suddenly missed her footing again and then, she braced herself for the fall about to come but surprisingly, a strong arm for the second time in a night, held her waist firmly. Arissa smiled drunkenly as she made herself comfortable in his strong arms. Bringing her both hands to his checks, she gave them a pinch. "You were scared I would fall?" she asked him with a drunken smile. Yet, that smile was quickly replaced with a frown when she met with nothing but a cold gaze in reply. She pouted and brought her hand to his mouth. Tracing his lips with her slender fingers, "We don't even kiss" she complained with a smile, and at the same time, unknown tears slipped from her eyes. Nicklaus stared at her tears and down at her plump-tinted red lips. He stared at her face again and at her eyes that are already fully stocked with tears and without a second thought, he bent slightly and gave her a light kiss on her lips. SPOILER ALERT::Don't expect a fast romance. Romance would come late because both ML and FL are hard to tame. Their relationship would also go through numerous ups and downs, including occasional break-ups, aggressive ex-girlfriends, attempted murderers, and more. But, would their love strive through all the obstacles or would a few blows and manipulation crumble them Disclaimer: cover is not mine. Daily update, 14 chapters a week. Bonus chapters when pleased. I need all the support I can get from you all I also promise to put in my best. Thank you for reading and supporting sweethearts.....

Chapter 1 - Main reason

Her pale legs walked in elegant graceful steps as she pulled her luggage behind her and walked out of the airport. She took off her sunshade as her beautiful cold eyes scanned the city she grew up in without any warmth.

She gently stroked the fur of the cat in her handbag before reaching out for her luggage. Dragging it behind her, she said to the cat, "We're here, Blu."

The cat meowed softly in response, almost as if it understood her.

She walked to the front of the airport door and as she had expected, her previous driver was already standing there waiting for her.

She walked to him and after exchanging a small bow with him, he took her luggage from her and placed it gently in the expensive car trunk.

"I would not use the car," Arissa informed him when he opened the door for her to walk in as usual.

She took off her blazer and put it into the car back seat instead of herself leaving her body with a fitting t-shirt showing her endowment that is behind the t-shirt and tucked into a short leather skirt. Her Chauffeur crocked his brow when he heard her.

She was troublesome but he does not want to get in trouble with her because her parents specially ordered him to return with her, "I can't do that, Ms. Marie," He apologized still holding the car door open and waiting for her to walk in.

Arissa looked at him with a displeased expression, "That name died the moment I left this city, Mr. Adams," she said firmly warning him to switch the names back.

"Taken Ms. Arissa. Your parents are waiting," He said still standing tall, "You can't take an Uber to the family mansion," he said reminding her of her status as a Lincoln.

"I never said I was taking an Uber," Arissa said when she spotted her black motorcycle waiting at a spot for her. She checked on her phone, to make sure that this is the actual motorcycle Richard got for her, She smiled as she walked over to it before she sniffed it.

She brought Blu. out of her handbag and placed her safely in front of herself, "Go home alone. I would come myself," she said to him wearing her helmet.

"You don't know the places an-," He wasn't able to finish his statement because Arissa drove away and left the rest of Mr. Adams's words hanging.

Mr. Adams gritted his teeth with fear due to the consequences of losing his wild Miss again on the first day of her return after three years abroad.

He hastily got into the car he brought to pick her up and followed her at high speed.

.....

Her motorcycle made a screeching sound on the floor as she came to a halt in front of the mansion before her. Big thanks to Richard who brought this for her to the airport.

She smiled looking around the mansion and waiting for Mr. Adams to come in since she knows he had been following behind her, she came down from the motorcycle and took off her helmet, letting her long black hair flow she was aiming to wait longer for Mr. Adams to come in since he missed her during the race drives back home.

But her smile dropped in seconds when she remembered her mother's tune when she called her earlier today, for the first time in three years.

She took fast walks away from her motorcycle and to the door but before she can open it, it was pulled open from the inside.

"Marie!" Her mother exclaimed as she threw her hands around Arissa, "I missed you," she said rubbing Arissa's back.

Arissa smiled coldly before pulling away from her mother. How dare she say she misses her? That's a lie. And her face is so smooth?

"Marie isn't my name again a long time ago," she said without warmth to her mother.

Her mother said nothing but just scanned her outfit, "Where is Mr. Adams?" she asked sharply dropping her previous tune.

Arissa raised her brow with satisfaction hearing her real mother right now, "I used a motorcycle down here," Arissa answered twirling the motorcycle keys between the tip of her fingers.

"And why are you dressed up like a hooker?" Mrs. Lincoln asked as she flammed up looking at her daughter's appearance (picture in the comment section).

Staring intensely at her mother, Arissa pushed down the urge to continue the baseless chat with this woman. She just made it out of an eleven hours flight and bickering upon her arrival isn't something she has on the top of her list so, their discussions can wait for some other time - maybe, till God knows when.

She haven't even walked into the house yet, and the person who called her with worries in her voice is now this hard for her again. "Hahaha," Arissa laughed dryly when she spanked herself for how stupid she was thinking her mother is now somewhat different. But that isn't the case because she is still abusive.

"I'm sorry Arissa," her mother suddenly apologized.

She had just remembered the main reason why she called her back.
