Chapter: chapter fiveMr. Walker leads us out of the reception, and I find a black Rolce Royce decorated with beautiful flowers standing in front of the reception. I mean, why be so dramatic when almost everyone knows it is not a love marriage? However, we climb in and leave the reception. As we sit in the car driving to my new home, it suddenly hits me about my promise to myself about being Nate's, and only his is now broken. It might look like it, but that's not how it is in my heart. "Can we stop at the park?" I look at Mr. Walker and ask. He is looking at his phone with a frown, but I know he heard me. "Why?" He asks, still looking at his phone. I look down and start playing with my fingers. I don't want to tell him about Nate, even my parents don't even know that I love him. Seeing that I won't be giving him an answer to his question, he instructs the driver to pull up at the park. When the car stops right across the park, I get down, trying to hold back my tears. I walked far into the park, wal

Chapter: chapter fourMy eyes fell on a handsome man in a black tuxedo, standing beside the priest. My heart skipped a beat. Is that the man's son? I thought to myself. Because, wow! I hadn't had such a reaction in years. I shamelessly checked him out—from his broad shoulders to his chest, down to his shiny shoes. My eyes finally returned to his face—his eyes. They were the most captivating eyes I’d ever seen. I never thought I’d see a man with such beautiful blue eyes. I couldn't seem to look away. He wasn’t an old man; he looked to be in his early thirties. His jaw was sharp—perfect—and his black hair fell in loose curls. His eyes had long lashes, and even his nose was perfectly suited to his face. How can someone be so... handsomely perfect? When he took my hand from my uncle’s, I saw how small my hands were compared to his. Just from the back of his hands, I can see he has huge veins and hard hands, yet his hold was not rough at all as he held my hand. As I now stood opposite him on the altar,

Chapter: chapter threeAunt Becky starts to caress my hand, and I can’t hold back anymore. “What is it, Auntie?” “Can’t I just hold my husband’s niece’s hand?” No! You can’t! I thought to myself. “Yes, you can,” I replied. feeling uneasy with the emotion she expresses towards me right now. After a while, she starts to speak. “You know your uncle has been going through a lot for a long time now. He took care of you since you were five,” I looked at her like," Are you going to the extent of emotional blackmail now? " but kept quiet still. She acted as if she didn’t notice the look I was giving her and instead went on to say, “Business has been slowing for over two years now, and he needs the support from Mr. Walker, or else the business will go bankrupt.” That’s when she finally looked at me. “So, what are you saying, Auntie?” Let her just come straight to the point. “Get married to Mr. Walker,” she said plainly. As I was trying to stand up from the bed I was sitting on, she added, “He promised to g

Chapter: Chapter Two Sorry, Mum and Dad. I love you, and I would do almost anything for you, but there’s one thing I can't do: be forced to marry a man I don’t love, and worse, over a business deal. I’m sorry. Please don’t look for me.** I can not believe what I just read. My heart races as I frantically search the bedroom. “Eva!” I shout, tearing through the bathroom and the closet. Then, in my peripheral vision, I see an open window. She must have left through there. I rush toward the window, but all I see is a rope hanging all the way down. She’s already gone. I step back, feeling numb, and sit on the bed, trying to think through what to do. But then I remember the letter, the word “deal.” So the marriage was a business arrangement? Why? I know my uncle is strict, but not to the point of practically selling his daughter for the sake of a deal. I’m angry at Aunt Becky and Uncle Martin for using her like this, but I'm also disappointed in Eva for not confiding in me. Yes, the death of Nate ma

Chapter: Chapter oneCHAPTER ONE "I love you." There, I said it. Well, not really me—it's the vodka talking. I seriously shouldn't have had that much alcohol. Normally, I don't drink this much, but hey, it's my graduation day, after all. I deserve a little fun. I didn’t realize that fun would come with consequences. "You do?" His voice comes out in a raspy whisper. I nod, looking directly into his eyes so he can see the truth there. "And not in a platonic way," I add quickly. Nate has been my best friend since my diaper days, and I've been in love with him since I knew what falling in love was. I've tried killing my feelings for him but failed every time. Instead, my feelings only grew stronger. You know the kind of best friend you grew up with, living in the same neighbourhood, having lunch, sleepovers, basically sharing everything? That’s who Nate has always been. Ever since we were born, we’ve been inseparable. Even when we started college, we stuck to our plan—right from high school—and mov
