I wanted to laugh.Torture?What hadn't I already endured that made him think threatening me with it would make me quiver?"Seriously, Ethan? You're just going to let her off like that?" Mrs. Marcus flared.The moment she finished speaking, Ethan pushed me slightly away from him.My legs twisted.I stumbled and staggered. My eyes shut as I expected to hit the floor.But I never did.His strong hands caught me halfway.He wrapped an arm tightly around my waist as though he was afraid of letting me fall.He lifted me abruptly.A loud gasp escaped my lips the moment my hands rested against his chest.Our eyes met.I couldn't look away.I felt trapped in his cold gaze but the moment was cut short when Mrs. Marcus grabbed me from behind.My breath hitched as I landed on the floor.My spine struck the edge of the couch behind me.Pain surged through my body.I raised my eyes and met Mrs. Marcus's cold stare."You think you can creep your way into this mansion and into my son's life and—""E

Chapter: Chapter 4: believe me, it's a setup!
Chapter 4He narrowed his eyes, like he couldn't see my face clearly."Why?" he whispered calmly, way too calm for what I expected.I bit my lips; my fingers dug deeply into my palms."I... I... I..." I fiddled, not knowing what to say... His eyes grew deep into my face, sending a fearful feeling down my spine."I didn't mean to," I cracked.He frowned even more."You didn't mean to be this cute?" he asked.My throat went dry immediately."Huh?" I muttered confusedly.He raised his hands to my face, and before I could blink, he smashed his lips into mine.He kissed me deeply, so much that I couldn't breathe.Tears welled in my eyes.My hands flew to his bare chest, trying to push him off, but he wouldn't budge; instead, he grabbed both of my hands and pinned them above my head.I choked with every second.He broke the kiss and stared at me softly.I coughed as I caught my breath."Emma you're mine now, it took me years to finally be with you" he whispered.His hand moved to my lips,

Chapter: Chapter 3: I'm dying for sure.
The door opened, revealing a feminine figure."You bastard! Don't you know lifting a bride's veil before the completion of the ceremony brings bad luck?" she said as she walked closer to us.Ethan let go of the veil and took a few steps away from me, tucking his hands into his pockets as the woman walked closer.I released the breath I didn't know I had been holding.Dad heaved a sigh."How would I have known when I wasn't trained to?" Ethan smirked, revealing his dimple that rested at his left cheek.Dad turned to the woman, who seemed to be in her sixties."Mrs. Marcus... what a nice day to finally meet you in person," Dad gushed and nudged me."Greet your mother-in-law," he whispered."Good day, Ma," I greeted.She nodded and turned to Ethan."Your dad couldn't make it, but..."His jaw hardened, it was as if he didn't want to hear about his father."Enough already... let's get the wedding done," Ethan cut her off . He eventually dragged me to the aisle.We began the ceremony. The

Chapter: Chapter 2: why drug me for her?!
"Yes, Elena... you already knew how that kind of life feels, but Emma doesn't!" Dad added.My chest tightened further. A bitter smile spread across my lips.My gaze fell on Emma. She wore a sly smile but quickly switched to a pitiful look when Mom glanced at her."Yes, Elena. I have zero resistance to pain... you know that, but in between, I don't want you to suffer because of me,"she chipped in, her voice low.still trying to portray the considerate sister.My smile darkened."He wants you, right?" I asked calmly, and she nodded."Then you he shall get!" I smiled.Her face turned pale."You can't..." Mom wanted to interfere, but I shut her off."I won't marry him... In fact, I denounce this family. I'd rather go back to the orphanage where I came from than remain in this mansion."I turned to leave, but Dad's words stopped me cold."Elena! You ungrateful bastard... you will marry him, with or without your will."I shook my head."Over my dead body will I agree to marry Ethan Marcus..

Chapter: CHAPTER 1: I won't marry him!
"Mr. Ethan Marcus has fulfilled his own side of the deal... Ensure you keep yours, Mr. Armstrong..."" Else," Ethan's secretary, Mr. Sterling, paused with a smile.Dad needed no one to tell him what that "else" meant before nodding."Good. Mr. Ethan awaits his bride tomorrow." With a slight bow, he walked out, but not without glancing at Emma, who stood beside Mom."Mom! I don't want to marry him!" Emma's voice rang through the living room immediately after Mr. Sterling left."Emma, dear, I know... but it's for our family's benefit." Dad surged towards her, but Mom shielded Emma behind her."Armstrong! She's too young and fragile for this! How could you make such a decision about her life without even considering her feelings?"
