Chapter 205

• CONVENIENTLY MARRIED
• Seconds fly away, turning into moments of pure thinking. Rings! They are beautiful, grafted for a real marriage. Even our names or inscibed on them, and I can’t help the rapture in my heart. This is sweet. Because his authentic real wife is something I would never trade for anything. But this is not how I wanted us to wed. I wanted the world to witness our exchange of vows. Ooh, life! You really know how to surprise me and kill my wishes, huh?
• As I contine the mental battle, admiring the shiny rings in my hands, Damian is made aware of the scarcity or the nothingness of time we have on our side. We don’t know what that wicked and cunning woman might be doing right now or feeding the board right now. He takes the one with his name and slips it on my finger, and I don’t need to be told what needs to be done next. I slip the one with my name on his finger after sweeping a sheepish grin across my face. Wow! How deep is this entanglement going to go? Apparently, it's not only our relationship we have to fake but being married too. I hope all these sacrifices will be worth it in the end.
