"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.

The Society's Heiress

It has been a week since Elijah last saw, heard from, or heard about Sadie. The last time was when he witnessed her confront two of Elon Banks' death squad that the man sent to threaten Sadie.

Though the death squad didn't do anything to threaten or scare off Sadie, their mere presence and the knowledge that they were from Elon Banks' death squad was supposed to threaten Sadie and in the process, Elijah as well.

But that didn't turn out like it was supposed to. Their presence doesn't affect Sadie. The knowledge that they were from Elon Banks' death squad didn't scare off Sadie.

It may not seem like it but there was a small part of Elijah that was pissed because of the presence of the death squad around Sadie.
