Posted on December 4, 2023 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll do nothing, I just want to take a look.”

“No, this is an elevator. It’s under surveillance.” Oriana protested.

“There’s no surveillance in my elevator.” Deacon took off her chiffon shirt.

In the past few days, Deacon had been thinking about her injuries. He couldn’t summon up courage to ask her.

The floral chiffon shirt was lifted to reveal her skin. Her wound had healed, and there was no scars left. Her skin was as white as milk.

“It okay. Don’t look no further.”

Oriana pushed down his hand, which was wearing an expensive watch. Deacon raised his eyes and looked at her.

“It’s really healed.”

“Yeah, the injury wasn’t that serious. I did apply an ointment on it. But it still hurts a little.” Oriana lifted his hand and placed it on her neck.

Deacon looked closely at her neck, he had bitten deeply Into her skin. Although the injury was healed, there was still a visible shallow mark.

Deacon buried his face in her neck and sucked it greedily. His lips fell on the scar and he repeatedly kissed it.

“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. Oriana.”

To him, an apology was the cheapest thing to offer. But at this moment, he could only say it over and over again.

“Well, I forgive you this time, but don’t bite me next time.” Oriana smiled.

Deacon raised his face and kissed her lips.

“I won’t next time. Even if I will, it’ll be so gentle like this…” He bit her ear softly.

Oriana swiftly pushed him away. Deacon looked at her.

“You needed to see how seductive you looked that night.”

The elevator arrived and the door opened. Deacon pulled her closer and lifted her up into his arms again.

“If you’re curious, I can show you all the pleasure that there is in this world.”

Oriana didn’t want to discuss such topic with him. She quickly changed the topic.

Mr. Armstead, I know that you like younger girls. When I get older, will you have some sugar babies?” Although Oriana was still very young and sexy, she was bound to grow old and wrinkle.

Deacon chuckled sweetly.

“It was until I met you that I realized that I liked younger girls. It’s you I like, understood?”

Oriana felt really sweet. She could only blush.

Deacon arrived at his office. It was the first time of Oriana being to his office.

She stood at the window and looked at the beautiful city before her. The phone in her hand beeped, indicating a message on her social media.

She clicked on the message, it was from Divine.

“What the hell is going on, Oriana?” The message was accompanied by a picture of Oriana in Deacon’s arms.

Oriana’s eyes narrowed, and she quickly replied,

“Where did this photo come from?”

Divine was outside of the Armstead’s corporation. When she was passing, she sighted a little crowd inside the building, so she went closer to take a look. She had managed to take a picture, thanks to the glass wall.

“Oriana, I’m out here. I saw you with the CEO, Deacon. What’s going on? Are you cheating on your husband?” Oriana instantly had an headache. She took in a deep breathe, then replied,

“Divine. I really can’t explain this matter to you right now. But don’t worry, when we meet at the Ivory Council, I’ll tell you all that you need to know.”

Although Divine really wanted to know what was happening, she could only contend her curiousity till later. She put the phone back into her bag and headed home.

A classic car which drove past her, suddenly reversed. Greg was seated on the driver’s seat.

“Divine, what are you doing here?”

Greg was from a really wealthy family. The car he drove was extremely costly.

Divine wasn’t interested in answering his question. She knew she had to protect Oriana, since Greg was now friends. with Pamela.

“I was only heading home. And please, don’t talk to me. You wouldn’t want people making fun of you because of me.”

Greg quickly said.

“Divine, we have to inform our parents about the dissolution of the engagement. Get into the car, I’ll take you home. I’ll inform your parents about it at once.”

Divine ruminated on his offer for some seconds. She finally opened the door and got into it.

Greg who had been driving, slowly took a different route.

Divine suddenly realized that something wasn’t right.

“Greg, where are you taking me? This is not the way to my home. Stop the car!”

Greg stopped the car in a deserted street. He got out of the car and turned to the passenger’s seat, he dragged Divine out of the car.

He suddenly snatched Divine’s handbag. He opened the bag and took out her phone.

He went through Divine and Oriana’s chat which was on the front screen.

Greg scoffed evilly and forwarded the picture to Pamela.

“Greg, what are you doing? Hurry up and give me back my phone.”

Greg reached out and pushed Divine to the ground. His face was clouded with disgust.

“Divine, this a highway, I’ll leave you here. Go home by yourself. It’ll only take you a few hours to arrive home, at least the exercise will make you some lose weight. You make me sick!”

Divine was indeed a fat girl, but she was still very beautiful. She was aware of the fact that Greg didn’t like her, but she hadn’t expected him to him to despise her so much.

“Greg. give me back my phone.” She made to stand up, but Greg pushed her hard again. She fell and bruised her knee.

Greg sneered, his eyes shinning with abhorrence.

“I’m gonna borrow your phone for today. I’ll return it to you tomorrow.” After that Greg got into the car, he stepped on the accelerator and galloped away. leaving her on the highway.

Divine struggled to stand up. Her knee was bleeding, and each step she took was extremely painful.

It was getting darker, and it suddenly began to rain. Divine trekked home slowly in the rain. The torrential rain hit her face, and she couldn’t open her eyes.

She felt very cold, and her body ached. The tears which had welled up in her eyes flowed freely down her cheeks.

Divine concluded that it was definitely the most devastating day of her life. All her pride and dignity had been smashed and trampled by Greg.

Divine was still worried about Oriana. It was obvious that Greg stole her phone just so he could get some information which he would use to defame Oriana.

The Hendrix Family.

Pamela received Greg’s message. She stared furiously at the picture with jealousy and hatred in her eyes.

At first impression, Deacon was a handsome and restrained man. His gestures were filled with the elegance and dignity of the first class. He was low–key, veil, mysterious and cold.

Pamela had been fascinated by him since the first time she had set her eyes on him.

His private life was spotless and there was never a woman around him. She thought that he was not a surperficial man.

However, he had greatly surprised her.

From giving Oriana his card, to purchasing an exorbitant necklace to her. He pampered

Oriana in every possible way at the bar, and also did same at his office.

Deacon was indeed not different from other men that she had come across. He was already fascinated by Oriana.

Pamela thought about Raven. To her, he was the same. North was the center of his own attraction..

Pamela concluded that all men were the same. They all liked beautiful women. The more beautiful, the better.

The jealousy that Pamela felt was almost driving her bunkers.

“Why am I not Oriana? Or North?” She questioned inwardly as the rage surge over her mind.

She sent a message to Greg.

“Team leader Greg, you’ve done a great job. Now, log into the Ivory Council student group and expose this photo.”

Greg’s readily reply came in shortly,

“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I really would have had a hard time believing that this girl, Oriana, really has a relationship with the president of the Armstead’s corporation.”

“Although she had passed director Hudson’s test, she’s a married woman, and she’ll be torn apart when the news. gets out to the students.” Another of Greg’s message had come in, in a quick succession.
