The Queen Wicked Deeds

Camila Lynch wished so much she could escape the room quickly. The nervous sweat in her forehead ruined completely her perfectly done hair.

'Can't he stop looking at me?'​​

The man was looking at her so intensely. His gaze was making her feel more uncomfortable at every second. He was glaring at her trying to dig a hole in her head.

'Why are you looking at me like that? It is not like I wished to be here either. I didn't want this to happen and certainly not this fast. The old man tricked me into this and I had no way to withdraw.'

The man in front of her was the son of the Hill family, famous for his military career, but instead, he chose to walk away from them to start his now-famous tech company, and… he is her grandfather's godson. Ethan Hill, that was the name of the man glaring at her.

'Sighs… please stop."

He has two other siblings, well, stepbrothers, the eldest was a man with proud and cold eyes.

'I always felt the air freeze when he is around.'

He was married to a lady from a good family, with a good academic background, good looks, good demeanor, and other "good" features, good enough to fit into the Hill family. They surely were made for each other. The woman was like a plastic mannequin. Always smiling with the same poker expression.

The other sibling was a spoiled girl, the same age as Camila.

The only polite compliment for that spoiled girl was on her good looks because she was a totally disgusting person, the cliché kind of person that uses her family power to intimidate ordinary people.

'Tsk such an awful girl.'

This Hill family has big issues, well, just the typical ones from a wealthy and proud elite family. Ethan's father had an affair with another woman, namely, Ethan's mother. Then he abandoned her to stay with the woman who was already his wife. What a scum.

Ethan's mother raised him until he was seven years old but she was diagnosticated with a serious illness and she died from it. However, before she left the world, she sent him to his father's family. The Hill family. Terrible mistake.

They took him in but harassed him in every possible way. Making the little seven year old lad life a living hell.

However, a miracle happened. While the little bathered boy was walking on the road looking terrible from a beating, my grandpa found him. He sent him to the hospital and investigate the reason of his beatings.

Later the caring Lynch grandpa took him in as his godson. From then on, Ethan started living in the old mansion with grandpa. His family didn't dare to say anything because of the old man powerful background and their need to maintain their reputation.

Camila often saw him when her parents took her to visit the old man's house when she was younger. 

"Camila, this is Ethan."

The young little boy looked at the cute girl dressed in a pink babydoll dress.

"Hi."

The young girl smiled sweetly and the boy blushed. When she took his hand he ran away.

We never got along. I had the impression that he was looking at me with angry eyes every time I met him as if I did an unforgivable thing to him. I remembered that in our first meeting, he was a sweet, cute, and shy boy, and gave me a lot of candies, but then he became hostile and I don't get it. Anyway, we are in this situation, for now, Grandpa is set on the idea of making him my husband and make him inherit his wealth and business. My parents, thank God, are indifferent to the old man decision because they have their own career and business to take care of, my brother has his medical career and is not in the mind of inheriting an old business, and I am simply not cut out for anything related to financial spreadsheets and managing things, although grandpa made me study the business inside out. I just want to enjoy a simple job and a carefree life. Yeah, I am that lazy.

This guy looks terrible. I think he is going to punch me in the face if I'm left alone in this room with him. The old man made the decision of announcing my engagement to him tonight at his birthday banquet without telling my parents, my brother, and, of course, me. We were flabbergasted when the old man threw the big party in his big mansion and invited almost every important family in the country. My mother nearly fainted when Grandpa began handing out wedding invitations for the following month. From the beginning of the party, I was removing myself from the picture, but then my name came out from the microphone and the lights flashed on me. I could only nod to escape the situation, not understanding anything. Only when the voices began to reach my ears and after two seconds, my slow, lazy brain captured the meaning behind those words.

"Congratulations on the wedding."

Wedding? Which wedding? Whose wedding?… My wedding? The old man was cheeky enough to hold my arm and made me take Ethan's arm, whose eyes were sending signals of an announced murder. I was going to die. Someone help me, I didn't do anything. Please stop looking at me like that. Ouch, he took my hand and squeezed it hard. What is he doing? Is he disabling my hand first before murdering me? No way, I would not give him the chance to do that. I stomped on his foot with my heel. He frowned at me and I just smile into his eyes with a triumphant face. Take that! If I am going to die anyway, I will give you a memorable fight. I was gloating when I saw his face moving extremely fast towards me. Before I could do anything, a pair of lips settled on mine. K.O. What!?

Chapter 2. Your hubby is waiting

"He kissed me…"

"Yeah, I know."

"He kissed me…"

"Yep, I took a picture of it, do you want to look?"

"He kissed me…"

"For God's sake, I know you are happy but stop it."

"He kiss… what?! Happy? who?… me?"

"Who else idiot? You are daydreaming."

"This can't be happening… why did he do that?"

"Because you are his fiancé, duh!"

My head was thinking of hundreds of possibilities in a few seconds, but they were all useless before that man, nothing makes sense. As a last resort I had to call for the wisest person I could reach, the only person I knew whose emotional intelligence was in a completely different and higher level than mine, and also my best friend, Samantha Guillen. A woman with an uncontrollable and ċumulative experience in terms of relationships, her voluptuous body, blond hair, sultry lips, and enticing blue eyes had captured the hearts of hundreds of souls. She is also a sensible goddess in the science of medicine and a willing victim of my brother's charm.

Then again, the conflict in my head is Ethan Hill, the one who never said a polite word or a friendly phrase to me, the one who made fun of me in high school when I got bad grades and never helped me out with my homework when I forgot to bring mine and I needed to copy it before the teacher could castrate me, the one that didn't allow me to sit beside him in the cafeteria or at any table near him, the one that yesterday kissed me out of nowhere and then ditched me without telling me anything after the party was over.

"He doesn't like me, he hates me! He must be plotting something to destroy my reputation and never be able to find another soulmate in this life! "

"What the hell are you talking about?" Sam said lazily while flipping through her phone. I was walking nervously in front of her. We were at her apartment while she enjoyed her free time away from the hospital. She was sprawled on the couch like a cat and I was having trouble finding the plot twist in this horrible nightmare.

"What should I do?"

"How long has it been?"

"Huh?"

"Sue, how long has it been since your last boyfriend?"

"Mmmm… three years." I said while rolling my eyes and lowering my head.

"Not true…" This bitch hit my head really hard with her phone. "Actually, you've never dated anyone."

"That's…"

"Shhh…" She put her finger on my mouth to make me stop talking. "I will tell you what to do and you will follow." She said with a grin on her face and a deep look in her blue eyes. I knew she would have the answer, she is my lifesaver and the eternal goddess of my heart, in whom I can trust my life with.
