Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée The Spark I Didn’t Ask For
I woke up to the sound of waves crashing softly against the shore. For a moment, I forgot where I was. The air smelled of sea salt and something expensive. Then I remembered. Edrick’s private island. Honeymoon. Pretend marriage. My stomach sank.I was still mad, the anger from last night still lingered. My mom is my number one hater and I hate that I'm just realizing this. Edrick was still not here. The bed on his side was untouched, but his suit jacket hung carelessly on a chair. Typical. He probably spent the night with Lila. But if so, why did he want us to share the same room? I sighed and pulled myself out of bed.The sunlight streaming through the window made everything glow. The marble floors, the golden curtains, the soft white sheets. It was beautiful. Too beautiful for two people who couldn’t stand each other.After a quick shower, I changed into a white sundress and stepped out to the balcony. The ocean was refreshing, calm and blue. For a second, I let myself breathe.
Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée Ungrateful
Lila and Edrick kept talking like they haven't seen each other since forever, while the staff kept walking up and down, taking our luggage in. I tried to busy myself with my phone, but my eyes kept flickering towards Lila and how her hands brushed Edrick's shoulders every now and then. The moment she left, the house fell quiet. I could still smell her perfume in the air. Sweet and soft, like she wanted to leave a piece of herself behind.Edrick didn’t look at me. He was still standing near the door, his jaw tight. I sat on the couch, holding my glass of water, pretending to scroll through my phone like I didn’t care.He finally spoke. “Get up.”I looked up at him. “Excuse me?”“We’re going to our room.”Our room. The words sounded so wrong. I followed him up the stairs, my feet dragging against the polished floor. The hallway opened into a wide bedroom that looked like something out of a dream. Tall windows, silk sheets, gold frames, everything too perfect for people who couldn’t st

ALINAMy throat went dry as my heart hammered against my chest. Tiny beads of sweat gathered on my forehead as Edrick’s gaze pinned me down like a spotlight. My lips parted to speak, but Jason beat me to it.“Sir,” he began, voice slightly trembling. “I actually came looking for you. I wanted to discuss the next steps for the deal we just sealed.”His tone was too formal, too shaky. I could almost hear the lie cracking.Edrick didn’t blink. He just stood there, his jaw clenched, eyes fixed on me the whole time Jason talked. Not once did he look at him. My stomach twisted. He wasn’t buying it.Jason must have felt it, too, because his words started to stumble over each other. “I—I thought it was urgent, sir, that’s why I came to your suite directly.”Edrick still said nothing. The silence stretched, thick and heavy, pressing down on the room until it was hard to breathe.Finally, he turned to Jason. “Leave.”The word was low and sharp.Jason froze, his lips twitching like he wanted to
Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée The Knock at the Door
Alina's POVWhen I woke up, the other side of the room was empty. The blanket Edrick used on the couch was still there, folded halfway like he left in a hurry. The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the suite in soft gold. For a moment, it felt like peace until I remembered where I was. And who I was pretending to be.I dragged myself up, went into the bathroom, and let the warm water run over my skin. It felt good. It felt too good for a woman living a lie. After showering, I dressed in one of the expensive silk robes in the suitcase. It's probably something Aria picked out. Since we wouldn'tbe here for long, Edrick said there was no need unpacking. A soft knock came, and before I could answer, a hotel staff wheeled in a breakfast tray. Pancakes, fruits, and freshly squeezed juice. The smell alone made my stomach growl.“Good morning, Mrs. Vale,” the waiter smiled politely before leaving.Mrs. Vale.I will never get used to this title. I probably shouldn't.I s
Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée The Wine, the Lie, and the Glare
Edrick’s POVIf they ever handed out awards for insanity, Aria Dawson would win every single one.Because tell me why she tried to sip wine while pregnant with my baby and still had the audacity to ask me, “What baby?”I could have said, "The baby you used to trap me into marrying you." But that would only create the kind of drama I am not ready to face in front of the media.Everyone’s eyes were already on us. The fact that this was the first time the pregnancy was mentioned publicly made it instant gossip. It would be all over the news in seconds.Every person at the table stared, and Aria just blinked back at me with that same questioning gaze. This is the woman I married? I blame Father for forcing me into this sham of a marriage.“My wife is quite exhausted.” I slid an arm around her shoulders. She stiffened instantly, as if my touch burned. Ignoring her reaction, I faced my business partner. “Mr Roger, it was a pleasure dining with you. Jason will handle the remaining forma

The flight felt like it would never end. Every second in that plane felt like walking on eggshells. I sat there, pretending to be calm, but my hands wouldn’t stop trembling. Jason was only a few seats ahead, and every time I caught a glimpse of his face, I felt my stomach twist.Edrick and Jason had spent most of the flight talking about business. I barely understood a thing they said. Words like “investments,” “shares,” and “projects” floated in the air between them. I just sat quietly beside Edrick, looking out the window and watching the clouds drift by.I should pretend this “honeymoon” is an all expense paid trip. I should be happy. But how could I relax when the man I used to love was sitting right there, and the man I married by mistake was the one beside me?My heart didn’t stop racing even once throughout the entire flight.When the pilot finally announced we were landing, I almost sighed in relief. I could finally get off that plane, away from the suffocating tension and th
