Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Oriana’s eyes radiated. She was happy that she fell asleep to the lullaby of the man she loved, and also woke up in his arms.

Watching the sun rise from the mountain top. Oriana felt zero regrets in her life.

“Mr. Armstead, let’s go back.”

The honeymoon was over, and they needed to return home as soon as possible.

Deacon stood up and looked at Oriana with a gentle gaze.

“Do you want me to carry you?” He asked.

Oriana placed her small hand into his palm and shook her head.

“No, it’s still early. Just hold my hand.”

“Okay.”

Oriana and Deacon descended the mountain and returned home. Deacon suddenly let go of her small hand and said.

“Wait for me here, I’ll be back soon.”

“Where are you going?” Oriana inquired with her eyes glued to his face.

Deacon did answer her question, but only went away.

Oriana stared at his disappearing figure, and suddenly, the phone in her left hand vibrated.

Oriana looked at her phone, it was a message from Alpha.

“Hello, Miss Hendrix. Our appointment time has arrived.” The message read.

“Yes, come pick him up.” Oriana sent her reply swiftly.

Oriana entered the room and placed her phone on the dressing table. The mandala flower was kept in the balcony.

Oriana took out an injection from the cabinet. The needle contained the flower’s poison. Oriana pushed. the needle slowly into her body.

Oriana’s second poison test was a failure. She had already been poisoned by the flower poison. Today was her third time of trying out the poison.

The poison instantly spread across her entire body, her legs weakened and she fell directly on the carpet.

A fountain of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her vision began to blur. Oriana stretched out her trembling fingers and quickly grabbed the medical book which laid on the table. She opened the book, as she turned to the last page.

On the last page was an antidote for treating poisons.

Normally, if Oriana tried the poison for the third time, she would have died on the spot. However, on the last page on this medical book, was a very mysterious ancient acupuncture method which could save her.

Oriana and Marvin had heard about the method, but they didn’t know how to implement it.

Oriana picked up a golden needle and stabbed it into her acupuncture point, temporarily protecting her heart.

At this moment, Deacon’s low and magnetic voice sounded from outside,

“Oriana?”

“Oriana?” He was searching for her.

Oriana quickly put away the needle and medical book. She stood as she looked at herself in the mirror. She was pale as a piece of paper. Oriana immediately took out a lipstick and applied a reasonable amount on her lips.

Oriana walked out and sighted Deacon at a glance..

Deacon had just returned and couldn’t find her. His tall body shuttled through the corridors, searching for her.

Oriana didn’t know where he had gone. He seemed to be in a hurry to return, because Oriana noticed that one of his shoes had fallen off, and Deacon seemed not to have any idea about it.

“Oriana?”

“Oriana?” Deacon was calling her loudly.

Oriana’s bright eyes turned red. If she disappeared, he would search the entire world for her. And if he couldn’t find her, he would definitely go crazy

Oriana would never abandon him, because the one who is always left behind was the one who suffered the most.

Deacon had already been abandoned unintentionally by his mother, how could she be willing to make him go through that route again?

She could only choose for herself to be left behind.

Oriana looked at him and gently called his attention,

“Mr. Armstead, are you looking for me? I’m here.”

Hearing her voice, Deacon stiffened. He quickly turned around and strode over to her.

“Oriana, where have you been? I thought you were gone.”

Oriana stretched out her hand and patted his face like he was a little child.

Mr. Armstead, I didn’t leave. Where did you go to?”

Deacon brought out his left hand which was behind his back and showed her what he was with.

Oriana, look.”

that he was hiding something behind his back. Now,

Oriana lowered her head. She hadn’t even nee Deacon carefully held the item in his hands and said to ha

“Oriana, haven’t you always wanted a bird nest? There are three eggs in this bird nest. Let’s hatch the eggs together.”

Deacon had a bird’s nest in his hands. It turned out that he had just climbed a tree to get her a bird’s nest.

Oriana felt her heart ripple. The pains she felt was heart wrenching, as if someone had crushed her heart. The pain was unbearable.

Who was Deacon Armstead? He was a cold and powerful rich man. But he had let go of his pride to get her a bird’s nest.

Oriana’s hands slowly clenched into a fist. She repeatedly reminded herself to stay focused. Alpha was waiting on her life to save to his life.

“Oriana, what’s wrong with you? Don’t you like this? Deacon asked the moment he noticed that Oriana didn’t seem to he excited about his gift.

Oriana nodded coldly.

“Well, I don’t like it. I didn’t even like it at all. I was only joking with you. Why do you take everything so seriously?”

With that, Oriana reached out and knocked off the bird’s nest from Deacon’s hands.

The bird’s nest swiftly fell to the ground.

Deacon froze. His face was covered in disappointment and unhappiness.

The atmosphere between the two had become tensed and cold.

Oriana knew that she couldn’t stay with Deacon any further, she was afraid that she would soften her heart, so she turned around and left.

However, Deacon’s fingers reached out and grabbed her wrist.

“Where are you going?” His deep and domineering voice questioned.

Oriana didn’t turn around. She blinked severally, preventing the tears in her eyes from falling.

“Mr. Armstead, today is the end of our agreement. Stalking is a shameful thing to do.”

Deacon didn’t seem to hear her.

“Oriana, don’t leave, okay? Let’s stay here forever. Look, I haven’t taken any sleeping pills for the past few days. I can fall asleep when I’m with you. I’m slowly getting better, right? Why don’t we go to Imperial, you know, I don’t really like Imperial, but with you there, I’ll try to slowly fall in love with that city.” Deacon said tenderly. He was ready to go back to Imperial for her sake.

Oriana quickly lifted her face because the tears in her eyes were about to fall.

“That’s different, okay?” Oriana replied him ruthlessly.

Deacon pulled her over, his two hands firmly pressing down her shoulders.

“I’ll get tired of living here. I don’t have the courage to live with you for the rest of my life. I don’t want my world to revolve around you. I’m still very young. “Oriana muttered cruelly as she tried all she could to push him away.

Deacon intensified his grip on her shoulder.

“So what’s the point of this honeymoon? You were just nice to me just for your own happiness, you only wanted playing and sleeping with me. And now that you’re tired you want to leave.”

“Yes! That’s it.” Oriana replied coldly.

Deacon took a few steps back and stared at her gloomily.

Oriana knew better than wasting another second there, so she turned to leave.

After taking two steps, Deacon’s low and dangerous voice sounded from behind her,

“Stop!”

Oriana froze for a moment, then turned around. Her eyes widened as she stared at Deacon who had a gun in his hand. He pointed the gun at her, and the black hole was aimed at her head.
