Lucy’s POVThe sound of gunshots engulfed the entire area, and then my nightmare began. There were also bullet holes everywhere, and I had no idea what the f*ck was going on. I have never experienced anything like this in my entire life, and the thought of it made my entire body qualm. Arman dragged my feet and he took me with me to the window. I glared at him and said, “No, not the f*cking window again!” He said, “We have to jump, or else, we die together!” "N–No… Don't make me jump! This is not a f*Cking movie where you can jump and yet come out alive!" I kicked him out of the way and shambled frightenedly to the door. He couldn't help but follow me down the hall after I ran away from him. "Lucy!" he yelled out. But I'm stubborn; I'm not going to jump. I would rather run than jump the window again. I took a deep breath and tried to open the door to the exit because I needed to run down some long stairs. He kept calling my name, "Lucy!" Until the sound of another gunshot pierc

Lucy’s POV “Yes, I’m marrying him. What’s the problem?” Aunt Cecille mocked me, “You are just like your mom.” "Yes, she is just like her mom," Jane said with a snout. She put her hand on my collar, trying to fix it with a fake smile on her face, "Because you're poor now, you have to marry someone wealthy so you can get back on top?" “Don’t drag my mother’s name here.” I warned them and I pushed Jane away, glared at her and said, “Take your filthy hands away from me, Jane.” Jane scoffed and glanced at the manager, “I want that f*cking gown, if I have to pay double or thrice, I can give it to you!” I smiled at Jane and said, “You sound so desperate, Jane. No wonder you have my ex-fiance.” Aunt Cecille snapped back, “He chose my daughter because she’s better than you!” "I understand. Well, you know what? I don't need to waste time here fighting with just one bridal dress. Take it if you want it." At that point, I grabbed my black bag from the chair and got ready to leave, bu

Lucy’s POV"Hey, watch your mouth. What makes me want to spy on you?" I asked with my eyes darted. I even took a step back because the way Enrique looked at me made me think he would attack me. He grabbed my arm and asked, "Do you think you can get away, girl? Whatever you heard a minute ago, don't ever tell Arman about it or I'll kill you!" He grabbed my arm so tightly that I could feel his nails going through my skin. "Let go of me, Enrique! You're hurting me!" But before Enrique could let go of me, someone pulled him away from me from behind, and Arman punched him multiple times. Arman snatched Enrique’s shirt’s collar and glared at his brother angrily, “What do you think you’re doing?” Enrique lowered his head and pushed his brother away with a heavy sigh, “Nothing…” “Nothing?!” Arman turned his gaze at me and ordered in an authority voice, “Get inside…” “Arman….” “You heard me?” he asked with warning in his voice. I gave him a nod and went inside. Camila was crying her

Lucy’s POVEvery step of getting ready, from applying makeup and hairstyling to putting on my wedding gown, took at least five hours. "Chop-chop!" the manager called out. “We need to go really fast! The wedding will start in an hour!" Looking at myself in the mirror, I took a worried breath. I never thought that this day would come along. The make-up artist gave a big smile and said, "Wow! You look like a princess! You look really pretty!" My heart is racing so fast that I wish this day would end and the wedding would happen sooner. I know that this is just an agreement to marry him, but I've been totally worried the whole time, and the clock is ticking. The woman with blonde hair curled my hair and said, "Smile, you should smile on your big wedding day! I imagine how lucky you are... so, so, so lucky!" Their Leader came in and said, "Okay, that's enough. She looks really pretty awesome now." Then she glanced at me, "Miss Hansley, are you alright?" I nodded and sighed, "Yeah, I

Lucy’s POVAfter a quick shower, I went to the house's front hall. As I walked, I heard a doorbell from the gate. Knowing that there were no maids or guards in the Villa, I went outside and opened the gate. The delivery guy handed me a big box and asked me to sign the form.The man left after I signed the delivery form, but I needed to find out what was inside the box. I brought the box inside with me and opened it on the table. I gasped when I saw a wedding lingerie set, and when I read the note, it was from Sofia, Arman's mother.“No way, I’m not going to wear this one.” I close the box with a problematic sigh.As I was ready to return upstairs, I noticed Arman standing there. As I looked at him, I didn't move. My eyes fell on his wet body. He had just gotten out of the shower. His abs and strong upper body made me gasp. I've never seen a guy who always made me feel nervous---only him!He tightly wrapped the towel around his waist and said, “I’ll sleep in the guestroom tonight.” h
