CHAPTER SIXTEEN

FREYA POV.

"What happened to me, why did I call that name, Daniel can't be him. Besides, it is clear that its first name is King. Unlike Daniel, whose last name was King" I thought.

" More so ever, Daniel won't want to answer the name King, he hates his family, so it can't be him" I convinced myself.

" I'm sorry, I called you Daniel, you can't be him" I apologize.

" What made me say so, why can't I be him?" He asked.

In all honesty, I couldn't think of a good reason but then one popped up. The fact that after the operation, Daniel ditch me and came to pick up another girl, was harsh.

Daniel was a jerk, despite the fact that I was blind, he humiliated me. I can still remember what he said. How he called me a golddigger, using his disability for my advantage. How he called himself stupid for believing me, how I'm paying for my crime by being blind now.

It was harsh and cruel. I couldn't believe that someone I love and help would tell me that. He was really using me for my eyes and I fell for him.

I was so desperate to feel love, I was desperate to have someone I could lean on, that I fell so easily for him.

" Freya," King called. " Yes," I answered. Praying he doesn't ask me what happened to him again.

" Should I search for him, do you want me to find him for you?" he asked, his voice so calm.

" I guess you miss him so much, you just called me him" he went on.

" Looking for him could jeopardize what we are doing," I said, using it as an excuse.

" I don't think it will, after a year, we divorce and you can be with him" he suggested.

" Do you know him?" I asked, " cause always asking me questions about him," I stated.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pushed it," he apologized. " I got someone who can help you walk around the house" he informed.

" Why would you do that?" I questioned. " Because you need it," he replied.

" When I asked for it, I have managed to walk around all my life without using a cane. And without seeing, I'm still able to face the direction in which you are speaking to me, just a few days and I can master the house," I said.

"But then you will fall," he said in a defensive manner. " And I will learn how to start home, I will calculate my step and will try not to make such a mistake," I tell him, noticing he was quiet.

" Besides, if you are one who takes me around, the public will see you as a perfect gentleman who loves his wife a lot, " I added waiting for his response.

For a while, he didn't say anything, making the room's atmosphere change.

I started regretting a lot of things I said. I shouldn't forget that he saved me.Just when I wanted to say something, I heard footsteps, was he leaving or was he doing something, I couldn't tell.

I will only have to wait for him to say something to tell his location.

" Try locating me now," he said. By listening, I could tell he was standing by my right hand side, but that's tricky, he moved, why would he still be standing in the same place I was.

And then it struck me, I had done the exact same thing to Daniel when he was blind.

I wanted to know how much he could sense, so I had to pretend to move a bit and then come back to the same spot.

" You can't find me as you claim right" he said giving an estimated point he was standing.

" You are behind me aren't you?" I asked. " At first, you stood in the same spot, but while I was thinking, you pulled off your footwear, which allowed you to move freely without making noise, that's how you got behind me," I explained.

" Well, you got it, maybe you don't need the help after all. I can already see how desperate you are to come close to me" he teased.

I laughed at his remarks. " I think it's the other way around," I said.

" Although I'm blind, I'm beautiful, I'm sure I am the most attractive person you have met" I continued.

" I have seen my fair share of beauty around the world," he started off.

" And I am the most fair of them all" I said dramatically.

He mumbled something, something I couldn't hear.

"I will be on my way, a party will be held soon, I will send your dress and a team of professionals that will help you get ready"he informed.

" Thank you" I mumbled. Even though I don't know the exact reason why I said so.

" I will come get you when dinner is ready, not anyone just me" he said, emphasizing the words "JUST ME".

I smiled, chuckling at his words. " What happened next?" I asked.

" Apart from being your false wife or staying with you, what happened next?" I questioned further.

" Well, you took a big step being my wife, and please in public avoid those false words, even now people could be watching us," he said, correcting me.

" However, I won't deny the fact that I am dangerous, rich and popular," he boasted.

I sighed at his words. He still boasts about himself. "Is it really a proud thing to say, admitting you are a dangerous person in front of a girl" I thought.

At least he didn't hide it, he was open about it from the start.

" It's going to be rough but I promise you, no matter what, I will make sure you don't get hurt" he softly said.

I could sense his sincerity in his tone. He must be so nice, which makes me wonder, why was he still single all this while.

" And lastly, if you want to stay by my side, you have to trust the things I do, even the ones that don't make sense," he warned.

" What decision can't make sense?".
