Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

 Kale slumped on the sofa and turned on the television. He paused as he thought of what he did to her in her room. He sounds so cold toward her. He sounded like a jerk. He hissed and he almost threw the remote control away when Kelsie walked toward him with snacks.

"What happened?" Kelsie asked.

​​

"Nothing." He shook his head.

"Nothing?" Kelsie scoffed. "You stayed there for more than one hour and nothing happened?"

"I was a jerk." He confessed. "I just couldn\'t get off my mind that she\'s the daughter of that bastard who almost killed me. You know, Kels. I should move on from the past. But when I saw her family photo and that bastard Joey, that is her brother, I felt like my blood ran up to my head. That bastard had done lots of bad things to Cathy." Kale exhaled frustratingly.

 He reached the lemonade and sipped on it. The lemonade is refreshing and he wished that it would calm him down.

"I don\'t know what happened between you and her family but she seemed nice." Kelsie shrugged.

"We don\'t know about that." Kale scoffed.

"But you fucked her," Kelsie stated as she saw them. "I wasn\'t snooping or something. But I happened to see the two of you through the cameras. She left in the morning which means that something indeed happened."

"It\'s nothing." Kale wanted to think that their relationship is nothing. Nevertheless, he still thought about how he took her virginity without giving her a second chance. She was into him too. Besides, it\'s not his fault that she also let him kiss her and suck her breast on the beach. It\'s not his fault that he took her virginity because she also insists. Now, he sounds like a jerk.

"I don\'t want to get in with your problem." Kelsie waved off. "Anyway, just don\'t be a jerk to her, Kale."

"I am already a jerk," Kale confessed. "She was a virgin and she\'s clingy."

 Kelsie stopped from what Kale said. She pressed her lips.

"Kale, sometimes, what we women need is attention and warmth. I don\'t know how you become a sudden jerk, but I think Christina doesn\'t deserve it." She said softly. "Okay, I\'m going to prepare Nate\'s lunch and we are off to drop it by."

 Kale nodded and watched Kelsie turn back and walked away. Kale stared at the ceiling. Then, he reached for his phone from his pocket and texted her.

Kale: Get up lazy ass. You need to work. Or I will work your body.

 He waited for her response but she didn\'t reply to her. Maybe she\'s busy with work.

"I\'m such a jerk," Kale mumbled.

Kale: I\'m sorry. Did I do something to offend you?

 Kale wanted to know if he offended her. However, she didn\'t reply.

 Rhys pouted at his phone. Does he have to destroy it? He already sent messages as his report and Jaxon is hurt. Yesterday, they went clubbing and got Jaxon to get laid but he nearly got assassinated. They found important files that are feeding up the Phoenix Empire with negativity.

 There are names and Rhys took out the chip from his phone and his sim card. He breaks his phone into pieces and throws it away.

 He put the chip to the magnet of his jacket and tucked it safely. Jaxon groaned and held the cut on his shoulder.

"This is a bulletproof suit. How can it get cut?" He asked.

"I don\'t know. It\'s like a laser blade." Jaxon said. "Fuck! It still felt burning."

 Rhys checked it again and it looks awful.

"I\'m sorry, Jax."

"No. It\'s part of the plan." He winked. "But you have to learn to never sleep with anyone while you are on a mission." 

 Rhys took out the small syringe that contained nanomites and injected it into him. Jaxon sighed and he closed his eyes.

 They are in a dark room. The only place where they can hide. They cut every device that they had. The last message that he sent is to Raiden and he also accidentally texted Camila with the code. But he just hopes that she\'s safe. He might not be able to contact her for long since they are on run.

"We can\'t go back to our penthouse. They might be in there."

"Are you hungry?" Rhys asked.

"No. Let\'s starve ourselves. I need to regain my strength. You shouldn\'t leave without me, do you understand?"

 Rhys nodded. He stayed with Jaxon. He felt so hungry now. But Jaxon falls asleep since the nanomites are repairing his cells. They can\'t leave this hideout that Jaxon found until everything is clear.

 Camila received a message from Rhys. It\'s two hours ago and she wonders if it\'s an emergency. The dots and lines look familiar like it\'s a code. Rhys said that he might not call her or text her when his work became more serious. For her, it sounds dangerous.

 A car beep and she smiled when Casey rolled the tinted window. She approached the car, opened it, and hopped in.

"So, where are we off to?"

"I know a place for good bikinis," Casey said.

"I don\'t feel good at these bikinis," Camila mumbled. Casey only laughed.

"By the way, I tried to call Rhys but I couldn\'t reach him. But he sent me a message."

"Can I see it?" Casey asked.

Camila tapped her fingerprint on the phone and showed it to her. Casey took a screenshot of it and then sent it to her phone and she deleted the message and the screenshot. Camila doesn\'t know why Casey would delete such things from her phone. She only smiled and she didn\'t ask and looked at the traffic in front of them.

"It\'s French," Casey said. "He said that he loves you and he wanted to annoy you so much."

 Camila scoffed.

"I hate him," Camila mumbled. They reached the store and they were parked in the VIP parking lot which she was amazed about. Casey is a show-off and she\'s the princess of their family. Much more like a spoiled brat and she\'s rude to people she didn\'t like. She\'s also franked which she likes about her.

 But as Camila spoke and got close to Casey, she realized that she\'s not that bad. The first impression is that she\'s intimidating and cold. But she\'s caring mostly to her siblings and family. Then, to her.

"What\'s with the beach party?" She asked.

"It\'s just one of our get along. Also, Esme is leaving for New York and everyone wanted to congratulate her for making it to Juilliard\'s."

"I met Esme but I never heard her play or sing."

"She\'s good," Casey said. "I say, genius. She easily could play the notes and all. I\'ll send you her videos. Her voice is powerful and angelic."

"Sure."

 Casey entered the bikini store, and she followed. She looked around. Mannequins wearing sexy bikinis. Casey took the red one with ruffles on the shoulders and high waist bikini panty.

"Here, is this your size?" She asked. She looked at it. It\'s not that bad, and her boobs are big that Rhys always holds.

"Yes, you are good at the sizes."

"Yeah, I just looked at your chest and your waist. It\'s perfect." Casey pressed her lips. "Let\'s find more. You aren\'t just going to wear one."

"It seems like you are going to sell me." Camila laughed. Casey smirked.

"I\'m going to sell you to Rhys," Casey said. Camila stopped laughing and shook her head. "It\'s very obvious that you like Rhys so much."

"Don\'t tell him!" She hissed at Casey. "He\'s just going to annoy me with it."

"Don\'t worry. I won\'t tell you." Casey laughed. "In exchange, buy more bikinis or swimsuits."

 Since they are wasting Rhys\'s money. She indeed buys a few dresses. She never bought in her entire life a pair of bikinis for herself. But now, she has bought a few. She insists on paying for it but Casey has Rhys\'s card.

"Does Rhys know that you are using his card?" Camila asked as they left the shop.

"Yes." Casey smiled. "He said that as long as he\'s going to waste it on his best friend. It\'ll be fine."

"You know what, let\'s not do this again. I don\'t want my friendship with Rhys to be like that."

"I think it\'s too late," Casey smirked.

 Casey dropped her off in her penthouse building. She went to her room and took out the things that she bought. She removed her clothes and put her robe on from the bed. She walked to her walk-in close. Her eyes widen Few drawers are open. She looked around and reached for her phone.

 Did someone enter her house? She tied the lace of her robe tightly. She decided to leave her room. She needed to call someone at least. She called Rhys, but she couldn\'t connect to him.

 She felt that someone was watching her. She rubbed her shoulders, and suddenly, the doorbell rang. She immediately checked the camera and found that it\'s Zendaya. Rhys\'s cousin. She immediately opened it.

 Zendaya smiled at her and took out a gun and pointed it at her.
