Sean's mind was in a mess, he had to find a way out of all this, his father was right after all, maybe it was a rite of passage that came with getting married.

He could not let her go at any cost, because he was not sure of his feelings for her.

And then her mother had come and dropped a bomb on his head when she had said about taking her back to the States.

Rania knew all about his family connections with her mother.

He had never lied to her ever, and he never would.

Here, Rania was confused and unsure. Mr Knightley was behaving unusually with her, and the moments of their intimacy haunted her all day.

She knew that this marriage was a sham, but her heart drummed a different beat and hoped for a alternative to stay, just to know the depth of the feelings which had grown into her.

Afterall, feelings which were killed before being fully felt, was always the one that came back to haunt you unexpectedly.

Whereas, her mother saw everything, which the Sean and Rania couldn't see, they liked each other, but they were reluctant and all she had done was to test them and make them realize their feelings.

As everyone was scattered around the house, doing their work, Rachel arrived in the house a week prior than her stay.

As, Sean was coming downstairs he saw her and was startled and he quickly regained his composure and hugged her, but she didn't hug him back, he looked at her, she took her bag and went to her room.

At, dinner when everyone came down, she looked at the new guests with suspicion.

And then she saw her, his sister and her anger knew no bounds and she pointed towards her and shouted ' she's still here, this Conwell bi***, her brother destroyed my life and she strolls in my house like she owns it'.

Sean looked at her and he knew who told Rachel about this matter, he got up from his place and put a hand on her shoulders.

' just stop I know you were lying when you said she is just a guest, how could you do this to me Sean, after everything that happened'.

' Rachel listen to me ,calm down, let's got to your room and we'll talk ok!' Sean replied calmly.

' no ,she has to leave right now, I cannot tolerate her face in my house, a Conwell my brother's wife, it can never be, tell me Sean she is just your mistress, isn't she, and that you didn't marry her?'.

' Rachel enough , let's go inside right now' he said and dragged her away.

Rania looked at everyone in the room, and slowly got up from her place and went to her room and as she reached she bolted the door and sat.

So, this was always going to be a common occurrence now, the fault of others would be repaid by innocents, way of the world she assumed.

After an hour or so ,when she had stable herself so that she could face everyone without breaking, she pulled the door open and in came Sean.

' let me pass through Mr Knightley' .

' I have to talk to you'.

' I need to got out of this room right now, maybe sometime later'.

He came inside the room and bolted the door and said' not until you hear me out'.

She was turned away from him, ' not like I have a choice'.

' Rachel is a kid, don't pay heed to her words, she has been hurting for a very long time, for her to accept my marriage is a tough challenge'.

All he could see was her back, her long hair cascading like waves.

' it doesn't matter, this marriage isn't going to last long , I want to go back to where I belong and you can do whatever is that you want, enough messing with my life Mr Knightley'.

He bridged the gap between in a few strides and stood in front of her.

' what did you just say? '

' you heard me, enough is enough I don't want to be a pawn anymore, I'm fed up'.

He gritted his teeth.

' you aren't going anywhere until I let you go'.

She chuckled and said' I'm not my mother, who destroyed her life for your mother, Mr Knightley, she got involved into something she wasn't a part of '.

' listen to me , Rania' he said.

' no you listen to me, my mother wasnt suppose to meet my father that day , it was your mother, my grandmother liked my mother and here we are , you all lived a happy life and all we got was pain, sadness and deceit.'

' I know all that, that's why my mother went to India to help you'.

' is that all suppose to make everything ok? I don't dwell on the past much and hold grudges, I like you mother, but you Mr Knightley are a different case'.

'What do you mean?'.

' I don't know why you chose me ,it could have been my step- sister, but you chose me , you destroyed me,why?'.

He didn't say anything and he let her talk.

She was naive to the covenant rules ,just like her mother, he had indeed brought her Into this mess, why? He didn't know, maybe he didn't like the she was the one that got away, or was it fate, destiny who had planned this union.

' answer me' she said assertively.

' I don't have an answer, I did what I did.'

' ok' .

And she started to leave the room.

But he was faster and he stood by the door blocking her way out.

' now what?'. Rania said.

' now you listen to me'.

' we are going on a little trip , before your visa expires, pack light,'.

' are you serious? I'm not going anywhere with you'.

' you are , otherwise you will get deported of worse jailed, so be a nice girl and do as I say'.

' I won't , it's better to be deported , the only way it seems to go back, and this is worse than a jail so yes! I'll take my chances.'

' don't Rania , you are treading on a dangerous path here.'

With that he grabbed her upper arm and pulled her closer.

She gave him a defiant look.

He nudged her closer.

And she resisted and didn't give in.

He smirked and leaned in and said ' you like this, don't you, maybe I should finish what I started yesterday'.

And she shook a little.

Then he suddenly let her go and she went outside the room.
