"Being married to you means the world to me. Don't worry about my family, they knew, and they were much eager to protect you. I don't care if my life would be in danger as long as you are safe. My life is not normal without you in it. Ah… what was the last one?" Jacob stopped and rubbed his chin trying to remember J's last word before he interfered.

"Ah! Right!" Jacob's eyes gleamed when he seemed to remember. "I was so glad that your grandfather dragged me into this messy and complicated life of yours. Because if he didn't, I would be forcing myself into your life, even if you don't want to."

"Was I able to answer all your questions, Mrs. Jacob Parker?" Jacob asked, emphasizing how he addresses J as Mrs. Jacob Parker indicating that whoever she is, she would still be his wife.

At the age of 10, J's parents died in an ambush leaving her in the care of her grandfather who years later sent her away along with her best friend to hide her and her identity from those who would try to kill her after her parents.

20 years later, a lot of things had already happened. Her grandfather died. She is back in the country for good though still hiding her identity. Everything was peaceful until a man came claiming her as his wife.

Since then, her peaceful life flipped upside down. People who want her dead found her but his so-called husband never left her. He was even willing to kill and be killed just to protect her.

"I already agree with you," Damien said as he leaned in and this time he kissed Nora's lips. His lips lingered on her lips for a while. Nora had to close her eyes to savor the moment and when she opened her eyes, she momentarily lost her composure making Damien smirk in satisfaction.

When Nora opened her eyes, she composed herself for a moment then she asked, "How long have you been awake?" Her eyes glanced at the tray of food at the foot of the bed.

"Hmm…long enough to make us something to eat. The last time we ate was at the ball last night, which I did not enjoy by the way, so I am famished," Damien said as he picked up the tray. He sat on the edge of the bed with one of his legs folded then he placed the tray on his lap.
