BEFORE THE MARRIAGE📍📍

Hazel swept through the palace corridors, trying to shake off the morning's events. She had, once again, turned down a suitor her father had handpicked. It was the third prince that month. Though they all came from noble lineages, each proposal made Hazel feel more like a pawn than a princess. Her father, King Eldric, was determined to see her married off, but Hazel wanted more than an arranged match—she wanted a love that was true and genuine.

  • Forced Marriage with The Devil   Chapter 122

    The decision didn’t come immediately.Of course it didn’t.Systems like this didn’t rush.They processed.Reviewed.Deliberated.But the waiting—That was where the real pressure lived.—Ariana stopped checking her phone.Not because she didn’t care.But because every notification felt like impact.And she needed—Just a little distance.Even if it was artificial.—The hospital had officially removed her from all schedules.No shifts.No rotations.No access beyond administrative clearance.She existed—In between.Not active.Not dismissed.Just… suspended in process.—Mateo’s situation was different.He still moved through the building.Still held presence.But without authority.Without decision-making power.Without control over anything that mattered.And that—Was new.—“They’re going to make a statement.”Diego stood across from him again.Same position.Different weight now.“When?”“Soon.”A pause.“Before the final ruling.”Mateo nodded once.“Of course.”Public narrativ

    The line had been drawn.Not vaguely.Not emotionally.Clearly.And now—Everything moved according to it.—The notice for the first formal hearing came two days later.Scheduled.Mandatory.Non-negotiable.Ariana read the time twice.Then closed the email.Because reading it again—Wouldn’t change anything.—The hospital didn’t feel like a place she belonged to anymore.Not because she was removed.But because she was now… observed.Defined by something outside her work.Outside her capability.Reduced to a case in motion.—Mateo’s day looked different.Meetings.Legal.Administrative.Contained conversations behind closed doors.Nothing spontaneous.Nothing unplanned.Everything documented.Everything deliberate.Even his movements—Felt monitored.—“You should prepare for suspension.”The legal advisor’s voice was calm.Too calm.Mateo didn’t react.“Temporary,” the man added.“But public.”That mattered more.Because public—Shifted perception permanently.“They’ll make an exa

    The pressure didn’t spike.It tightened.Slowly.Deliberately.Like something designed to constrict over time instead of collapse all at once.And that made it harder to fight.—Ariana sat in a room that didn’t belong to her anymore.Administrative holding.Neutral walls.No patients.No urgency.No purpose.Just time.Too much of it.Her phone rested face down on the table.Silent now.Because everyone who needed to reach her—Already had.And everyone else—Was waiting.Watching.Deciding where she stood.—A soft knock.Then the door opened.Not Elena this time.Not administration.Cami.Ariana’s chest tightened instantly.Not from surprise.From inevitability.“You found me,” Ariana said quietly.Cami stepped inside.Closed the door behind her.“I wasn’t looking,” she replied.A pause.“You’re exactly where I expected you to be.”That landed.Because it wasn’t just observation.It was prediction.And Ariana knew exactly where she learned that from.Cami didn’t sit immediately.Sh

    The silence didn’t last.It never did.Because once something like this started moving—It demanded response.From everyone.—The email came first.Official.Cold.Structured.Ariana read it twice.Then a third time.Subject: Notice of External Review CoordinationHer name.Mateo’s name.Attached documentation.Legal language.Timelines.Deadlines.Mandatory appearances.It wasn’t a warning anymore.It was process.Already in motion.Already beyond them.—Across the apartment—Mateo had received the same thing.He didn’t sit.Didn’t pause.He read it once.Then placed his phone down.“It’s faster than expected,” Ariana said quietly.“Yes.”“That’s not good.”“No.”A pause.“They’re coordinating with the medical board.”That landed.Hard.Because that meant—Licensing.Certification.Career.Everything.Ariana exhaled slowly.“This isn’t just the hospital anymore.”“No,” Mateo said.“It isn’t.”—At the hospital—The atmosphere had changed again.Not whispers.Not curiosity.Distance

    The document didn’t leave the table.But its weight—Spread everywhere.Ariana could feel it without reading it.Legal.External.Permanent.Something that wouldn’t disappear with time or careful handling.Something that would stay.Follow.Define.“What exactly did you file?” Ariana asked.Her voice was steady.But thinner now.Less shielded.Cami didn’t answer immediately.She watched her instead.Like she was measuring whether Ariana deserved the full truth.Then—“Ethics violation. Abuse of power. Professional misconduct.”Each word landed separately.Deliberately.Ariana’s chest tightened.“That’s not—”“It is,” Cami cut in.Not loud.Not emotional.Just precise.“You were under his supervision.”A pause.“You hid it.”Another pause.“You continued it.”Silence.Because stripped down like that—There was no room to reshape it.No softer version.No reinterpretation.Just fact.Mateo placed the document back on the table.Carefully.Like it was something fragile.Or dangerous.Bot

    The quiet didn’t last.It never did.A sharp knock hit the door.Once.Then again.Ariana froze instantly.Her hands were still gripping Mateo’s shirt, her back still pressed against the wall, his body still too close—Too familiar.Too dangerous.The knock came again.More impatient this time.“Mateo?”Cami’s voice.Clear.Right outside.Everything inside Ariana dropped.Her hands released him immediately.Her breath caught so sharply it almost hurt.Mateo didn’t step back right away.For half a second, he stayed exactly where he was—eyes locked on hers, expression unreadable.Calculating.Then—He moved.Fast.But controlled.Distance returned like it had never been broken.By the time the door handle shifted slightly, he was already a step away.Composed.Untouchable.Ariana pushed herself off the wall, heart racing violently now, trying to steady her breathing.The door opened.Cami stepped in.Bright.Alive.Completely unaware—Or maybe not.Her eyes moved between them instantly.

  • Forced Marriage with The Devil   Rebuilding Trust

    The castle walls had never felt so alive—or so fragile. The aftermath of the canyon battle lingered like a shadow, echoing through the corridors in the soft murmurs of soldiers and the anxious footsteps of advisors. Hazel walked beside Damon, her boots clicking against the polished stone, their rhy

    The first rays of dawn crept over the canyon, bathing the scorched earth in a pale, golden light. Hazel stood atop a jagged rock, surveying the aftermath of the battle.

    The canyon echoed with the relentless roar of battle, steel clashing against sinew, and the guttural cries of the twisted creatures. Hazel’s muscles burned from exertion, her dagger slick with the ichor of the monsters they had already felled, yet she refused to relent. Every movement, every strike

    The canyon’s jagged cliffs loomed like silent sentinels in the pale light of the moon, their shadows stretching across the ground like dark fingers. Hazel’s heart pounded in her chest, a rhythmic echo of the tension that gripped every soldier around her. She tightened her fingers around the hilt of
