Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

Kizy immediately stood up from her place and went beside Markus, covering his mouth tightly to stop him from speaking louder.

"Shhhhh. Are you crazy? Calm down first." Kizy warned.

Markus nodded at her, making Kizy remove her hand from her mouth.

"You are Black Diamond, right? Jason had called you Diamond the previous time." Markus said, though his voice was lowered, he was still hyped up.

"Yes you are right." Kizy said.

"Oh my f@#king goodness!! You are black diamond!! I am truly married to Gungoddess!!" Markus exclaimed..

Kizy just kept silent before speaking.

"Now that I remember, weren't you invited for the Gala as well?" Kizy asked, trying hard to remember.

Markus froze for a minute, before saying.

"No I wasn't." He said, his voice monotonous.

"No. As much as I remember, Satan was supposed to be one of the guests. Your name was even there on the invited list. In fact I was dying to meet Satan, especially after hearing rumours about how powerful and mighty he is." Kizy said honestly.

"So you were just another fangirl." Makus said, cockily.

"Yeah but I now know why they were only rumours. Because the truth is truly far away from those imaginations." Kizy said while nodding her head, as if confirming something.

"You.. you are just jealous about the fact that I turned out to be your dream man." Markus said,pointing his finger at Kizy.

"No. Just sad, knowing all my dreams were only fake fantasies, because the Satan of my dreams never existed in reality." Kizy said, teasing Markus even more.

"Then do you think being 'Black Diamond' is cool?" Markus said, mocking Kizy.

"Ohh. I never thought like that though. Weren't you the one who was exclaiming as if you were to die from happiness for marrying Gungoddess. I never thought that being Diamond was something cool, it was only you." Kizy said, stating the facts.

"I wasn't exclaiming happily, I was so shocked after knowing that YOU were Black Diamond that I felt like crying. You know how frustrating it is to know that my dream girl has turned out to be someone as stupid as you!!" Markus said, pouting a little.

"Yeah yeah. You weren't happy and pigs can fly." Kizy said, not paying attention to Markus anymore.

"Surely they will fly when I throw them at you." Markus said.

Who would have expected that a day would arrive where two eminent identities like Black Diamond and Satan would get to meet each other like this, bickering and mocking each other for their positions while half of the world could only dream of achieving those positions?

"Okay so why didn't you attend the gala?" Kizy asked, ignoring his previous statement.

"I didn't want to join those groups. I have heard a lot about them, and if there is any word to describe them, it is - Dark. Their world is way too dark, something I never wanted to enter." Markus said.

"Yeah that's true though." Kizy said, nodding her head.

"Ohh look! You made me forget why I had called you in the first place." Markus said, remembering whatever Joel had told him about Paula.

"Why?" Kizy asked.

"Can you guess where those weapons would be from?" Markus said, asking about Aaron's weapon.

"Either Z city or Imperial nation. I have been to Green triangle and I have seen their weapons. But most probably, I think this would be the Imperial nation." Kizy said, her voice a little unnatural.

"Why do you think so?" Markus asked.

"Aaron had some of those royal weapons. And you know, only the Imperial nation is known for Royalty." Kizy answered.

"Hmmm." Markus said, knowingly.

"But why are you asking about Aaron's weapon or the black market?" Kizy asked.

"To find more about the people who captured him." Markus said, trying to hide that he was investigating Paula.

"They were people from the Imperial Nation." Kizy said.

"How do you know?" Markus asked, his forehead creased.

"There is one person who would want him alive and dead at the same time, someone who would want to make his life a living hell, but needs him at the same time." Kizy said, her voice unnatural, as if she was saying something about which she never wanted to talk.

"Who?" Markus asked, even more confused by Kizy's statement.

But Kizy just shaked her head.

"Let's not talk about unimportant people. And forget about Aaron for now. Because I feel that we will get to see him soon." Kizy said and stood up.

"I need to make the fourth correction. I will come back with the edited documents." Kizy said and left the office, not wanting to talk about the topic anymore.

"Guess I'll need to make an appearance soon." Markus thought to himself.

Things were getting way more complicated with the involvement of three black markets in between. 

Markus was still deep in thought when Joel entered huffing, without even knocking the door.

"What's wrong with you?" Markus asked with his forehead creasing.

"Boss you forgot something important!!" Joel said, still trying to catch his breath.

"What?!!" Markus asked in an urgent voice, knowing Joel would never be rash in his actions unnecessarily.

"It is Young Miss's birthday next week!!" Joel exclaimed and suddenly Markus felt like throwing Joel out of his office.

"That's it?" He still asked, to confirm his suspicion.

"Yes boss." Joel said.

"Is it that urgent?" Markus said, his voice dropping suddenly.

"Of course boss!! You won't know, but Young Miss had made a lot of preparations when I had told her about your birthday, so that we could trap Aaron.

And most importantly, Elder Master, Elder Madam, and Young Madam, all of them had seen her efforts.

In fact I heard from Lukas that grandpa has already started selecting gifts for Young Miss. 

So if you were to neglect or forget or pay any less attention to it, you know how your family would react to it and scold you further." Joel said.

Suddenly Markus realised how grave this matter actually was. 

"Do you have any suggestions? What should I buy for her? Something that would please all my family members?" Markus asked with a hopeful voice.

"No boss. But I think you should think about this seriously. Young Miss had made a lot of gifts by herself. So you should do something similar instead of just buying something expensive." Joel said, knowing his boss would most probably think of buying some rich item.

"You mean I should make gifts? Handmade? And me?" Markus asked in a disbelieving voice.

"That's what your family members might expect." Joel said before leaving quickly, knowing his boss might kill him for any more words.

"Arghhh!! What the hell is this?" Markus said frustratedly to himself.

He thought for a minute. He stood up from his chair and started thinking while walking. He then went to have a glass of water and sat on the sofa thinking again.

But after ten minutes of deep thinking, he could only come up with one solution.

Hence he went back to his chair, took out his cell phone and dialled a number he had almost forgotten the existence of.

Just when he thought that nobody would pick up his call, a voice was heard from the other side.

"So what made you remember me Mr Markus Evans?" A female said.

"Do I need any reasons to remember and call my cousin?" Markus asked.

"Off course. Just check our call log once. You had called me last time almost two years ago, that too because you needed my help to convince aunty and grandma to stop searching for girls for you!!" The girl exclaimed.

"Hehe.. you are quite smart Nicole. You remember something that happened two years ago!!" Markus tried praising his cousin Nicole to divert the attention but….

"Just cut the crap and come to the point. I know you definitely need my help and that is why you have called me." Nicole said from the other side.

"I want to know what all things can you think of for gifting your wife?" Markus asked directly, knowing he could no longer excuse himself.

"Wife.. ummm.. you can gift a pa-" Nicole was speaking when she suddenly paused.

"Wait. A wife. Your wife. Markus, are you married?" His cousin asked.

And that is when Markus remembered that except for his mom, grandpa and grandma, none of the family members knew about his marriage with Kizy.

Even at his grandma's birthday banquet and his conferences, he had only introduced Kizy as his girlfriend. Hence nobody was aware about their true relationship even now.

"Yeah." He said a little apologetically.

"Is it that girl? The one you are introducing as your fiance?" Nicole asked in a cheerful voice.

"Yes it's her." Markus said, nodding his head.

"And when were you going to tell this to me?" His cousin complained.

"Now." Markus said monotonously.

"You want my advice for a gift right? Talk to me nicely then." Nicole said cockily.

"Yeah yeah. You are the sweetest!!" Markus said in an exaggerated tone.

"So do you truly love her?" Nicole asked, curiously.
