Chapter 15 - Chapter 15

And l don't like men for your information.

Am sorry l didn't mean to believe all those romours . It's just that l didn't know much about you and l was a replacement bride .

What , you are a replacement bride . What do you mean .

The way Damon was shocked made me realize that his brother the king didn't tell him about my sister Merceline being his real bride .

Well ..... The proposal had come for my step sister but she begged my father to not marry her . And l know she didn't want to get married because she already has a lover . ..

I had no choice and l had to accept to marry you.

Shit ... I heard the duke curse . Can your father agree to such a thing .

You are also his daughter he should prioritize you too.

Ahh ....I don't really care l wasn't treated with respect in that house since my father brought his new wife home.

She always found one way or the other to annoy me and my father became accustomed to it . He doesn't care what she does to me .

Anyways don't worry, this is your new home now . No one will annoy you and you can do any thing you like. You are the mistress of this house now .

And forget about all those people who hurt you and start a new life here . Damon held my hands to comfort me.

I really didn't need any kind of consolation or pity since l had long accepted my fate.

Do you understand me my wife .

Yes ,l do.

Selene , l want us to try and make this marriage work . That's only if you want to do it too . Damon said the most shocking thing to me .

I never thought he would want us to work this marriage together. I always thought he was forced and he never would take a step in this marriage. I was prepared for the worst .

Did you hear what l said Selene .

Yes l did. I was spacing out about everything he said .

Is there anything wrong. I want you to tell me your views about what l suggested.

Since he said he doesn't like liars , I should atleast be honest .

I just thought since you were forced into this marriage you wouldn't want to upgrade in this marriage. So what you suggested now came as a shock to me . I didn't really expect it .

Sigh . He took a deep breath .

Yes l was forced into this marriage but l just feel like l should get to know you better and give this marriage a chance.

I know you have gone through a lot of things since your birth but you also deserve happiness like everyone else . The way his green eyes spoke volumes of emotions l couldn't even speak. His thumb circling on my hand put me at ease as if he was reassuring me that everything would be okay .

Can l really trust the devil prince, I don't want to be heartbroken but then l had already decided to make this marriage work .

What is life without risks . I will have to test the waters .

Okay, we can work together then . I couldn't look in his eyes . It was like l could see my self and reflection in his eyes .

Okay, so where should we begin from .
