Taming Faye

They were finally alone outside staring at each other, Daylan wasn't sure how to begin, he could see the look of hurt on her face. He had hurt her really bad as the tears stained her face, " Iam waiting Daylan, tell me the truth" she said with her voice cracking with each word spoken.

"It is true I was expected to marry Ariana, but it was not my decision, it was planned by our families"

He tried moving closer to her but Faye held out her hand " don't you come close to me, why would they force you into marrying someone you don't love?"

He exhaled " both of our families are very greedy people and no amount of money is enough for them, they want to be the wealthiest family on earth if eventually I marry Ariana"

She shook her head " Can't they be Wealthy without an arranged marriage?"

"They could but Ariana father won't agree unless I marry his daughter" Daylan paced front and back, soon he would have to tell her the rest.

"Why you Daylan? Why not japhet?"

"It is me she wants although she and japhet have slept together on many occasions, i didn't really mind because I never liked her and she considered me a challenge"

Faye felt her stomach churning, it all sounded so ridiculous to her " so you married me to get out of marrying her?"

His eyes pleaded for her to understand " Yes at first but I fell in love with you and wanted us to be together, I love you Faye and you know that" he paused for few seconds looking at her, " all these happened when you left for NYC for over three years and I did not see you despite searching for your whereabouts"

She wiped the tears from her face and a thought crossed her mind, she looked up to his face already starting at her " you tricked me into marrying you, tell me Daylan buying the hotel where I worked was it already a plan you had? Seeing that I love the job you decided to sell it off putting me once again at your mercy then proposing a deal I can't refuse just to trick me into marrying you"

"Faye please"
