Alphas Forbidden Desires

The Discarded Heiress: Marrying My Lethal Husband

Xiao Wang

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."

As I stepped into the bedroom allocated to me, I was taken aback by its elegance. "Exquisite taste," I breathed, impressed. The king-sized bed was the centerpiece, with bamboo wood stands adorned with intricate, flowery patterns.

The artwork on the walls was a treasure trove of colors and emotions, a perfect antidote for a bad day.

I rushed into the bathroom, and my jaw dropped in wonder. "Never seen a bigger bathroom," I exclaimed, and it's in my favorite color, "purple!".

The marble tiles glistened like the ocean, radiating a sense of serenity. I flopped onto the bed, grinning from ear to ear.

"Home sweet home!" I squealed, feeling like the luckiest person alive. "I hope Sheyla and her father treat me as well as this room is decorated," I chuckled, laughter bubbling up from within.

Grrrrrrrrrrr! Grrrrrrrrrr! I woke up to a blonde-haired girl staring at me, her face inches apart from mine. I felt like I was dreaming, but when I closed and opened my eyes again, the unsettling reality remained.

I let out a terrified scream and sprinted to the door, only to remember I had just moved into Mr. Pius's house, who has a blonde-haired 9year old daughter, "Sheyla!"

I returned to the bedroom, trying to compose myself. "Sheyla?" I called, extending a hand in greeting. "Nice to meet you. I'm the new nanny."

Sheyla looked at my hand with disgust and pushed it away. "I don't like you!" she exclaimed. and "I want to have a cake!" she said, storming out of my bedroom.

I couldn't help but think, "It's only my first day, and I already have a hater!" Sheyla's parting words still lingered in the air. I murmured to myself, "Oh lord, remind me not to get on the bad side of Sheyla...

" Grrrrrrr... I picked up my phone to turn off the alarm and caught sight of the time - 6:00 p.m. already! I had slept for a long time.

Mr.pius had said I could resume work the next day,"why is sheyla being hostile toward me? "To say that she is requesting for a cake today of all days!.

Truth be told I had only started mastering my cake making skills after applying for this job.

Gina had suggested I included baking as a skill so I watched videos on YouTube to practice until I landed the job,well everything happened so fast, I got called up three days later,here I am in my full glory and disaster.

Walking into the kitchen my present dilemma could not distract me from seeing the kitchen in its glory,I would pay to cook here!

The utensils are arranged in order of their colours and sizes,they looked like they have never been used,sparkling clean!

It has a mother flipping air conditioner and an heat extractor!
