Arranged To Be His
Arranged to be his wrath, possession and lastly his bride. Heira’s life changed completely when she was forced to marry a cold hearted billionaire, Dante Moretti. Her father, Charles Arven’s reputation is being tarnished as a result of a public scandal. His company was losing investors and also going bankrupt. He had desperately set up the marriage with the aim of acquiring influence from Dante’s family. Dante agreed to the marriage without revealing the cost that comes with it. But from the moment Heira says "I do," she knows something is wrong. Dante doesn’t just resent her, he wants her nowhere near his world.
Unknown to her, he had plotted the downfall of her family’s company and orchestrated the marriage as a part of his long game of vengeance. He planned to take his revenge fully on Heira, but she is nothing like he expected, soft where he is hard, and warm where he is cold.
When the truth about the past is revealed, their relationship is put to test. Will their marriage survive the fire or burn with it?

Chapter: What Happened at OrionThe rhythmic and steady rush of water could be heard softly in the background. Heira woke slowly, her head throbbing with a dull ache that left her disoriented.Her eyes fluttered open. The room came into focus in fragments. The heavy curtains, the muted lighting, the dark furniture arranged with deliberate neatness. Then, a large portrait that stared right back at her from the wall opposite the bed.Dante.She was in Dante’s room.How is this possible?Her body stiffened as realization crept in. Silk sheets beneath her fingers. The faint masculine scent lingered in the air alongside expensive cologne.Had she been dreaming all this while?She pushed herself up slightly. Her dress had been changed, neatly replaced with one of his shirts, too big on her which was obvious with the sleeves brushing her wrists. Then a tucked-in blanket rested over her legs.“How did I get here?”Her head started to throb as she tried to piece things together. The club flashed through her mind, music, ligh

Chapter: Orion After Dark Before Heira knew it, the man closed the distance between them. He moved easily through the crowd and when he stopped in front of her, the bass seemed to soften, or maybe that was just her head spinning.He was taller than she thought. The dim lights caught the sharp line of his jaw and the slight shadow of stubble along it.“Hi,” he leaned closer so she could hear him. His voice, calm and too steady for a place like this.“You surely are having a lot of fun,” he said, eyes flicking briefly to the empty glass in her hand before returning to her face.She glanced down at the glass like it surprised her. “I am… maybe a little too much.” Her voice came out louder than she intended.“Yeah, that usually happens when the vibe is good, or when the company is.”She turned her head, studying him in that loose and curious way, clearly under the influence of alcohol. “And which one do you think it is?”“Why not both?” He chuckled.Behind her, Bethy saw how well their conversation was going. She

Chapter: A Night at OrionStill, Bethy noticed how bothered she was. Something Sylvia said had stung with her. “Hey,” she said softly, stepping in front of her. Her hands on her chin, slightly raising her head to reveal her saddened face.“Why has your mood suddenly changed? You know better not to let that low-life bitch words get to you. She's not worth it.”Heira blinked hard, trying to keep her voice steady. “Of course, I know that. It's just…” she exhaled shakily. I didn’t know she was going with him. He didn’t inform me about his trip. Ever since he got the news, he had been even more distant from me.”Heira leaned into her friend, letting herself breathe. “I don't get why everything with him is always so complicated. The more I try to make us work, the more he proves he wants nothing to do with me.”Tears streamed down her face but they were caught with a tissue held in Bethy's hand. She couldn't help but maintain silence. She had realized words couldn't console her, so all she could do was some body rub

Chapter: A Shopping Spree At Marquis Mode It's been a month since Bethy travelled for work. There were barely any texts or calls from her. This had taken a dark turn on Heira. She misses her best friend, more especially now that she has no one she’s friends with. Sebastian, whom she considered to be one, had pushed her away. And Dante? Well, let's not talk about him.He had seemed more involved in work in the past days. Heira hardly knows when he comes in or goes out. It's always just her and the staff in the mansion now that Granny Mae has also gone back.She sat at the terrace enjoying the morning breeze when she received a call. “Hey bestie” Bethy's voice sounded from the line. Revealing her goofy self.“What! Is that my Mrs?” Heira exclaimed in disbelief.“Yes girl”“Is that my Mrs Dandoodle?”A bit of silence echoed from the end of the line. “Common girl, don't play with me.” Bethy groaned.Heira laughed. Teasing her was half the fun, and Bethy always fell for it. “What's up with you?”“Well, I'm back in the city, I arri

Chapter: Dinner with the ArvensThe house felt old and quiet, holding the same calm stillness it always had. As Heira stepped inside, she was greeted by Eliana’s familiar face. The aroma of freshly cooked food filled the air, warm and comforting. It was a scent she knew too well. The taste of home, the kind of meal she had grown up loving. This stimulated her, making her eager to have a bite of something that felt so familiar.The living room felt empty without many people around. The cushions on the couch looked untouched, like no one had sat there in a long time, and nothing else looked out of place.The wall clock sounded loud in the silence. The family photos on the shelf made the room feel even lonelier. They were memories of when the house used to be lively.One of the pictures was of her when she just turned two. Dressed in a tiny yellow dress that made her look like a burst of sunshine. Her hair had grown into soft curls that barely reached her ears, springing in different directions.She wore a big smile re

Chapter: The Recognition Her heart sank as she watched him disappear into the hallway. For a moment, she thought she had imagined him or maybe the guilt of not seeing him at the hospital had conjured the image. But no, she was sure she saw right. It was Sebastian.She had seen that profile far too many times to mistake it for someone else. The familiar set of his shoulders, the way he stood slightly leaned to one side, and the quiet confidence in his posture. Even the small tilt of his head as he spoke to the receptionist was unmistakably Sebastian.“Wait up, Seb.” She followed him to his office, requesting that he slow down as she tried to meet his pace. But Sebastian wasn't listening. He set down his bag and sat on his chair.“What's going on, Sebastian?” She asked as she stood before his desk. “Why are you giving me this attitude? If it's about not checking up on you in the hospital. I came as soon as I heard what happened to you but the nurses didn't let me see you. It's really not my fault. I came but I
