The Deal

POV: Elena

On a beautiful evening when I came out of the bus, I felt a nice cool wind which blended with the atmosphere, it made me hollow and down. Then as the sun rises the next morning I don't have an impact for it than it has always been before. But it was not the day I thought it would be, then after a little while a letter I submitted to the office weeks back was delivered by a dispatch rider who was half minded to me. He gave me a white envelope sealed with a logo of Harrington Enterprise, I was shivered hearing that name because he was a wicked managing Director of Harrington Enterprise. His name was Victor Harrington. The Involuntary shaking in my body made me open the envelope, and to my surprise it was an interview letter which was stating my presence there early tomorrow morning as early as 9:00 tomorrow morning. And he said that it might possibly hold my time in the company.your're to come alone. Victor said. After going through it all I didn't have an option rather than to abide by it, haven't been that my parents left me in debt I have to cover, this happens because of their sudden death which amounted to these mysteries.

Ok that following day, I Emerged at is enterprise very early, on entering there was this beautiful looking structure of the inner part foliage was appearing daunting together with the blooming facade, Undermining my determination and will power. All the positions were intriguing which felt dormant like human flow and imperfections are absent and hidden. After gazing at the whole place I was walking to a place in the company which was quiet, I was alone in there waiting. He called out my name "Mrs Dawson" my heart was hard as a rock looking at the. CEO EYE TO EYE and he waited there, I looked at the screaming power of is attire, with high social status, wealth and attention to detail was noticeable in him. I was certain with the look on his face all was established through him, and it looks like he this retaining me.

Afterwards he sat next down and started talking in a solo manner, lacking kindness and compassion. After I did as he said I. Can notice a kind of unease within me from being calm as always, he sat in front of meant is eyes were on me in an unfaltering manner and he said , which interrupts the quiet, and his voice being completely neutral lacking any hint of feeling and compassion. Yes, Mr Harrington. Replied nervously and relieved tension and he said, we don't permit choice fore failure, after saying this her seized me from talking and he continued with what he was saying, your parents were "gamers" and "speculators", and didn't just lost money alone, they scammed me and lost life on the long run. Which left you in their arrears. I tightened my hand to my fists, but there was nothing I could do, he made an accurate point. Which I can't submerge in. A turning shambles of His. I've found a way out for you, he said in a fearless manner I was unprepared for. " Be my wife" is very easy and straightforward. As he said that he paused for a while, I couldn't digest them. Seriously. Yes this is a BUSINESS MARRIAGE PROPOSAL, in trade I will clear your parents outstanding, your alias(name) and other debt allegations. Which is a friendly advantage.

I flinched, I battled in my mind to digest what he meant by that and I started asking my self rhetorical questions, a debt I've been trying to pay, and he gave me an escape route. But I felt it was a trap I was falling for. What is he up to , I asked myself in a solitude voice. He continued talking , you're going to abide by my rules , and your image, name and liberty is all mine. I taught about it, I looked for an exit but at a price of giving my life to him, my life will be his. And he said he doesn't permit second thoughts, but when I heard this I was trapped in my taught which left no way out. " Am I clear he asked " Yes ", I replied saying in a silent way. Alright. For a. While I thought he was leaving when h stood up, he placed a s**t of paper in front of me and he asked me to write my details and credentials on it including my autobiography. After putting all this down, I knew it was only a matter of time, there is no turning back, I was imprisoned in my mind with no way out. I wanted to resist this proposal but there is no gain to it . Then I took his wrist and placed away my future endorsement.

Chapter 2

The Dark Agreement

POV: Victor

Her hand shaking slowly as she signed the contract, but she didn't stop with the process. Haven't signed the contract, Elena now you belong to me and she had no way out. She forms an alliance with stress and trembling, but am not concerned or moved by her emotion for my proposal. She doesn't have a choice though, looking at her face was this trembling fear of disbelief. The fact that she has accepted and signed the contract, there is no going back and with time she will understand the meaning. After the signing process I sealed it with my permanent stamp. Then I welcomed her to a new lifestyle, her name being changed to mine "Mrs Harrington", as this was said I could feel the fear and tremor she has within which shoe all over her. The looks on her face were flickered, not replying to any of what I've said which I was not surprised to, because she was broken and can be easily overwhelmed and helpless under the pressure of her own problems and emotions.

Now you're moving to my apartment, saying this with a commanding tone and less respecting, telling her that she must abide by my rules which I've placed down for her to follow. The. I told her to wait at the taxi stop. But the look on her face prompted me and I asked " what is it" I could tell that she's experiencing a flush of embarrassment. Which is a physical response to her feeling. "No" she. Said in a solitude voice, I am set. I shook my head in reply to her answer and placed my hand backwards, I moved close to the window observing everything. Her disposal to my proposal left me in wonders which I am not supposed to have. I cleared the mind away and I said it is just a little time. All this time Elena has left my office waiting for the taxi.

Elena POV

On my way to Victors Mansion in the taxi I was quietly looking at the streets, I whined the mirror down and a cool breeze was entering, i was in a deep thought thinking about the severe tasks on my neck which was smoldering. I was still conscious of the little paper I left with my Auto biography which was a business contract proposal. The reality of getting married to an anonymous person which can portray what can happen, this disheartens me. We finally got to our destination, gazing at the enormous gate, it was a mansion I've never seen before. The gate. Were as shiny as a crystal , what even caught my attention was the automatic opening , it was the best I've ever seen. It opens and closes on its own without any human strength on it. Then we drove in, In the afternoon I came down from the taxi I gazed around the big house, it left a thought in me, "I'm in a lost world". At a far away distance I could see a nice looking attired steward and he called out my name, "Mrs Dawson", with a decent chuckle on is face, he welcomed me to Victor residence. I answered undoubtedly. Walking like I was possessed by a force, forcing my movement, the interior of the mansion looks beautiful like what bi couldn't compare with. The Golden wall and the crystal floor were priceless, on getting to the gallery, there was an entrance into a room. It was lavishing and with unspeakable designs I can't understand, after a few tours in the room the man that walked me in left right after I knew I was nothing here giving my life and future to a ruthless CEO.

Victor POV

I was in my office all alone looking at the paper Elena has signed which had approved the right element I needed to hold my place here I have been working for years back. Though it was not like I had feelings for her, she was just like my minions, but perhaps there was something in her that kept me skeptical, her adherence was unshakable. She never neglected the fact that I used her parents outstanding as an influence, I'm surprised by her strength because there is no one I've done this for that still leaves fine. Her strength and determination was intriguing. But I am interested in that kind of spirit. Apparently I will look into her and study closely, because for a person to surrender all just for living was an amazement. It would be an interesting adventure that will clarify my winning.

Chapter 3

Internal Turmoil

POV: Elena

The passing of the day became indistinguishable as continued with a life I've always prayed for but not as exactly as I wanted it to be. I was in a place of discomfort which looked nice but eternal scourges. It has been made known to me that life is a living hell when you're in the hands of the wicked , that is exactly the position I am at Victor residence. He wanted to form an alliance with me but it was not in alignment with what I wanted. Every day I wake up, my chores unchanged, having brief speech with the maiden, eating at my exact time and back to my seclusion in my room. I thought I could subdue my claustrophobic time in being alone in the room, then I decided to move around the enormous mansion, but it was still the same as it is. It seems his mansion was to make someone idle and timid. I tried to take away every bad thought in my mind. Mind which always envelopes my mind, after all I care about . "My parents, my name, my family all have been sold to him .

Victor has been the only thing I have already been thinking of since he was the one that kept me in mysteries of self thought. He has his plan which I don't think he would ever share with me. At times when it was time for dinner, his look would be sharper like there was no evidence of feeling or love in him, he was always cold and looked warm. Since he had no love and compassion for me then why has he taken me for his ruthless plan. At least there are numbers of women outside there which he can fall for , but the kind of feeling he has is cold to me. This is like an earthquake I have prevented happen in my life.

Then after I taught about all this in my room, I felt there wasn't a thing I can do since whatever I could ever think of is another problem for me to solve. The woman that had vouched to check up on me every 2 hrs came knocking, her name was Mrs packer. His honor wishes to see you, in a jiffy .
