Chapter 9

SHAYAN'S POV

The next day I was packing a light bag, I was going to visit my parents. My mom wasn't replying to my

text or calls and I had to know how they were faring. I came out of the room with my bag and purse

only for me to find Kel outside the room. I had planned on sneaking out, he wasn't even supposed to be

hone by now.

"And where do you think you're going to?" He asked angrily

"To visit my parents, now excuse me" I answered trying to get past him.

"And what's the fifth rule?"

I have no idea what the fifth rule is but seeing as I'm about to leave I guess it was the prisoner rule.

"I don't know and I don't care to know" I snapped moving past him.

He forcefully pushed me towards him giving me his famous glare and for a second I was scared, why

was he as angry as he is?

"Let me refresh your memory, you're not to leave this house especially without me" he ordered angrily.

His anger was pissing me off, he didn't buy me, doesn't own me so what the hell is his problem?

"I can go wherever I want Adrios," I shouted angrily. "You don't own me and I have the right to do as I

please"

"You are going to be my wife West, I own you in every way possible." He angrily said and that sent

shivers down my spine.

"You don't, I am my person and I don't belong to you at all, get that into your thick skull.'"

He was very angry now I was scared. He gripped my hand so tight it was going to leave a bruise and

the way he was looking at me now made me scared.

"Get your hands off me Adrios," I said mustering up the little courage I had to talk.

"Don't make me teach you a lesson we'd both regret. You're going to go back to your room now." He

ordered

I was so frustrated I wanted to cry but I didn't want to beg him in as much as I wanted to.

"And if I don't?" I dared to ask.

He didn't speak instead he opened the door and threw me inside then locked it.

"Get me out of here you bastard, I am not your prisoner and shouldn't be treated as one," I shouted but

all I heard was the bang of a door.

I'm officially doomed.

It's been a week since I tried to visit my parents. I've tried other means when he wasn't around but I

couldn't get past the security. I've called my parents severally but they never answered and I just hoped

everything was fine. Today was our engagement party and the planning was taken care of by a top

event planner.

I was dressed in a long light pink gown, I had on a diamond earring and necklace and my heels was

silver. My hair and makeup were expertly done.

"The guests are waiting." Kel appeared saying. He was dressed in a tux and he looked handsome as

usual and I didn't want to look at him.

He took my hands and led the way. We walked into the hall that was with guests, many of whom I don't

know. I had invited Rosie and Sean and some colleagues I was friends with. I had invited my mom but

she had outrightly denied my invitation. My dad was better now and I wanted to visit him but I never go

anywhere because of Kel, my mom had also banished me from the house.

" Congratulations once again Shayan. " Tess excitedly congratulated.

"Thanks, Tess," I replied and she was smiling like crazy, how excited is she?

"You know, I'm so happy that Kel is getting married and it's to you. I'm going to have a sister I've always

wanted and Kel gets the woman of his dreams."

Woman of his dream indeed, I nearly laughed. I bet the woman he sees in his dream is someone he

has slept with.

"Aren't you happy?" she asked. Was my disgust written all over my face?

"Of course I am. I'm just stressed and tired." I plastered on a fake smile.

"You'd get the hang of it and besides you'd have all the rest during your honeymoon," she said wiggling

her eyebrows and I laughed.

"So can I design your gown? " she asked hopefully.

"Sure," I replied and she gave me a big hug.

" Don't worry your gown would be the talk of the town for years," she said and I smiled.

"I hope it's for good though." I joked and she laughed leaving.

As she left I spotted Sean and Rosie, they offered their congratulations, Sean went off to meet a friend

while Rosie stayed behind.

"I'm looking forward to your wedding babe, if your engagement can be so grand how much more the

wedding."

"I know right," I said and she smiled.

"When are you going to introduce me to your fiancé?" she questioned.

"If there's time to, he's seeing a lot of people," I answered.

" Babe I have to introduce you to some people." Kel came around putting his hands around my waist

looking at me and I did too.

"Aww, so cute," Rosie said squealing. "You guys are just the best."

Kel and I turned to look at her, I was wondering what was cute in that and I'm sure Kel was like who's Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

she and what's wrong with her or he might be thinking we're fooling some people.

"Hi, I'm Rosie, Shayan's friend." she introduced bringing out her hand smiling.

At a time I was worried that Kel wouldn't shake her. " Kel Adrios, Shayan's fiance." he introduced and

shook her hand as if he was finalising a business deal but that didn't stop Rosie from squealing like a

schoolgirl.

"I think you can let go of my hand now. Shayan and I have to leave," he said curtly and Rosie

murmured an apology before letting him go.

He nodded at her and I waved at her before he took me to meet whoever he was taking me to.

"Grandma, this is Shayan." Kel introduced showing me a petite woman with black bob hair she looked

elegant even if she happens to be in her early sixties. She was wearing a long blue gown and had on

every accessory.

"Nice to meet you," she said smiling pulling me into a hug which was quite surprising since most rich

old women were snobbish.

" Nice to meet you too," I replied smiling.

"You're so beautiful in person, I follow you on Instagram you should too," she said and it took

everything in me not to laugh but Kel did. She was old yet fashionable and modern. I had to follow her

right there and then before she let me go.

"Good, now I don't have any problem with you, it's good to know that Kel is marrying the woman of his

dreams. I know you're going to be the best for him."

When she said that I suddenly felt bad that Kel was lying to his grandma about us being in love when

we'd only last for a year that's if we even made it to a year.

"I told you, grandma, I only have the best and Shayan is the best of the best." he smiled saying staring

at me.

Why on earth didn't he think of being an actor? Everyone was thinking we were in love when we'd

barely spoke. I smiled at him not wanting his grandma to doubt 'our love'.

Someone came to meet Kel that a guest was asking of him leaving just me and his grandma. The way

she looked at me made me wonder if she too was acting in front of Kel.

"Do you love Kel?" The question threw me aback, couldn't I act as if I was interested in him a bit?

"Of course I love Kel, yes he's difficult to be with and annoying but we love each other," I replied and

she hugged me crying.

"I'm just so glad he met you and wants to settle for you, not other girls. I pray you guys last forever,"

she said smiling and I smiled weakly feeling guilty. At that moment I didn't know if it was a blessing or a

curse.

"I hope so too." I lied

I spotted my cousin Camila walk in and I had to excuse myself to see her.

"Camy," I said hugging her, it was good to know that at least one family member decided to honour my

invitation.

"You look beautiful Shayan." she complimented and I smiled. "I'd tell you congratulations but I'm not

happy about this whole thing."

Great, none of them is. I hope I can keep up the lie.

"But I am Camy and that's what matters," I said and she looked at me questioningly.

"Are you really happy?" I don't think she was buying it if her looks were anything to go by.

"Yes, I am," I answered smiling and she just shook her head saying we had to talk.

She took my hand leading me to a balcony that wasn't occupied and then looked at me sternly.

"What are you doing Shay, why would you want to marry him after everything?" she asked calmly but I

could detect her anger.

"Because I have to let go of everything," I answered and she laughed.

It was going to be very difficult lying to her because she was there, she was always with me. She saw

me every day being miserable.

"You? Let go? Who are you trying to kid?"

This is going to be difficult, she's one person that understands me and I would need a lot of convincing

lies to get her to believe. Camy isn't someone that can be fooled easily.

"Is it because of the money?" she asked stopping to see my reaction." Is it for revenge? I know you

Shayan and you can't just let it go. Is he blackmailing you?"

"No he isn't. I'm not getting married to him because of that but because I love him."

" Cut the crap Shayan. I know how much you hate him Shayan, you hated him when you moved here,

you started working for his father six months ago, is that all it took for him to convince you?"

"Yes Camy, that's all it took. You of all people know that in as much as I hated him he was my first love

and you know how hard it is to get over that."

"But you were over him already Shay."

"I wasn't, I just had to make you all believe that I was," I said and she sighed.

"So you weren't over him? Shayan I know how he made you feel and your resolution about to love."

"Well he broke them Camy, Kel is a changed man," I said and she laughed.

"I don't believe that bull shit Shay he can't change. He is still very much fooling you now and you're

being the fool you've always been around him. Maybe it's still he cheats on you when you're married

bringing girls to your bed that's when you'd know he's still the bastard he is."

"Camy he has changed, he's not the person you used to know."

"I tried convincing you not to date him then you ignored me look where it got you. Isn't all the pain you

experienced enough for you?"

I remembered how she tried convincing me but I thought he was in love with me, thought he was my

first true love but it was all an act, a game and I regret not paying heed to her advice, I hope I wouldn't

regret it later.

"He wouldn't hurt me, I wouldn't allow it," I said and she sighed.

"Does he know? Did you tell him? are you feeling guilty, is that why you want to get married to him?"

"Gosh Camy let it go. It's good to know you care about me but I can take care of myself I'm not

eighteen anymore. And he doesn't know and I'm not going to tell him so none of you should and even if

I'm feeling guilty that's not why I want to marry him." I said getting angry.

"I don't just want you to get hurt Shay and I know he's going to hurt you. You might not be eighteen

anymore but you're still the same girl I know. I hope he wouldn't ruin you again."

"Don't worry he wouldn't," I assured her.

"It's crazy how love can be blind but if he's what you want I'd support you and I hope you wouldn't need

a shoulder to cry on but I'm still going to be there for you anytime."

"Thanks, Camy. I love you and I like that you care." I said hugging her. Finally, we're done.

" I love you Shay and I just want the best for you which I think would be any guy other than Kel but if

he's what you want I'd stand by you."

"Don't worry, I won't regret it." I proudly stated. If only she knows I hated him more than she does. I'd be

stupid to fall in love with him again. He might have hurt me once but that's the only shot he's having at

my heart. I wouldn't allow him to hurt me again.

"Shayan I've been looking everywhere for you," Kel said smiling putting his hands around my waist, it

was a habit of his before I wonder if he hasn't gotten over it or he's just doing it to fool people.

He should better try his best to fool Camy because if he doesn't then our conversation is far from

ending.

"Oh, Camy it's nice to see you again." Blatant liar, I'm sure she doesn't feel the same way.

Kel knows Camy because at the time we were dating she was living with us and has always hated him

and never hid it.

"It's Camila to you Kelvin. What's your plan with her this time?"

"There's no plan involved Camila, I love Shayan," he said smiling.

"Yeah right, you said the exact thing five years ago and we all saw what you did. I don't trust you and

Shayan deserves better than this but if she's stupid not to realise it I'm not. If you dare hurt her Kelvin

I'd hurt you in the worst way possible." she threatened.

"I see that you haven't lost your touch. I'd love to stay and chit chat but I have important people to

meet," he said and I glared at him. Doesn't he know that he's supposed to convince her and make her

like him?

"You arrogant bastard." Camy wasted no time in slapping him. She doesn't let the smallest thing pass

her by and she's quick with her fingers.

The sound of the slap and the redness of his face was enough to know that it was painful and he was

angry.

He moved dangerously to her and I didn't want him to do anything rash and so I pulled him back and

he let out a sigh rubbing my hand.

"Maybe I shouldn't have said that but it doesn't demand a slap." Kel calmly said. I know he can't

apologize but this is the closest anyone will get.

"Everything that comes out of your mouth demands a slap Kelvin." she angrily said. It felt good to see

her treating him how I wanted to.

"I don't know why you hate me so much but we have to live in harmony since we'd be in-laws."

"Not all in-laws live in harmony Kelvin and I hate you because you hurt Shayan and you're still

deceiving her with your empty promises."

"I'm not deceiving her Camilla, I mean every single thing I say to her," he said.

"Maybe I hurt her then but I wouldn't now. We've talked about everything, we've forgiven each other

and moved on. Our love is stronger now. I love her more than I used to."

This line could trip any girl, not me. I wanted to laugh, he's not even admitting to hurting me. Maybe I

hurt her? Hurt is an understatement. We don't even talk and haven't raised the issue and I haven't and

wouldn't forgive him and the only thing that is stronger now is my hatred.

Camilla looked from me to Kel and sighed. She was probably getting tired of our soap opera.

"I don't know what I'd do to convince you that I love her because I do. I'm not the guy you used to know,

she changed me."

He's not the guy I used to know, he's a monster. Some people change for good, his is for worse.

"I hope so because I'd change you permanently." she threatened and he laughed.

"Don't worry, I get the message. I won't hurt her," he said and Camy muttered good.

"I'd see you at the wedding then, we'd mail you the invitation." He said.

We said our byes and he took my hand and when no one was in sight he let go of it. He makes a good

actor. I'm learning from him with the way I profess my "undying love" for him. If I knew I could act I'd

have taken it up as a profession because fooling Camilla is not easy. If only she knows how much I

hated him more than I did before. I so wanted to tell her but I couldn't breach the contract. Maybe

revenge doesn't sound so bad. He'd have to experience every single person he made me feel, every

tear he made me shed. I have to make him know I'm not who he used to know, I'm tough now and can't

be used by anyone. We may get to fool the world that we're in love but I'd never make that mistake. I

loved him once and that's enough. My hatred for him can't change it. The little amount of time that I've

spent with him made me hate him more. He's nothing more than an arrogant man, a disgusting cheat

and liar that doesn't respect people most especially their feelings. Maybe it's time someone taught him

a lesson.
