Edrick’s POV

I woke up before the sun. My mind was already racing the moment I opened my eyes. My father was awake. He was healing. That part of my life felt light again.

But Leonardo…

He was the last monster standing in the dark.

I showered fast and got dressed. Aria was still asleep when I left the room. Her hair was spread on the pillow, her breathing soft. I wanted to stay a little longer, but I needed this problem finished once and for all.

I would come back to her. I promised myself that.

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Bastards

    Edrick's POV6am. 6am was too early to be driving to someone's house, especially without notice. But I could not help it. I really wanted to see her, I haven't seen her since the night at grandma's party. I want to see her and not seeing her is driving me nuts. Alina. Liana. I am honestly at a very confused spot. My mind already believes it's you Alina. But at the same time, I was scared of falling in love with another woman when Alina was burnt to ashes in reality. The thought of Alina surviving that fire, getting a face change and coming back as Liana was like a fairy tale come true. I do not believe in fairytales, but for this one, I was willing to. I parked outside the apartment gates and gave myself five minutes to think this through. Maybe I should just drive off and go to work, I did have a meeting in two hours. But after the five minutes elapsed, I stepped out of the car and strode towards her apartment. The moment I got to her floor, I had the itch that something was

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Girls night

    Alina's POVI left the party earlier than I should have. The tension between me, Edrick, and Aria was something I was not in the mood for. I cuddled Clover and slept off the moment I got home.Our sleep was sadly cut off quickly by the sound of the doorbell ringing. I stood up, about to rain curses on whoever had the audacity to come by so late at night.But when I opened my eyes and saw the sun shining through the curtains, I realized we had slept through the night.I dragged my feet to the door.The person standing on the other side was not who I was expecting, but I wasn't surprised."Hi," Lila said. The look she gave me was similar to last night's, like she was staring at a ghost."Hannah gave me your address." She explained, even though I wasn't planning on asking."Welcome!" I smiled and let her in.She was not fully comfortable as she sat on the sofa, but the moment her eyes fell on Clover, she softened."Is she?" Her lips trembled. "She's your daughter?"I gave her a nod.Lil

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Confess

    Alina's POVI let her stare at me for as long as she needed.The longer she stared, the more confused she seemed. She seemed hopeful, yet reluctant to believe.“No.” She stood up, her eyes still on me, scanning every inch of my body like I was a corpse that was just dug out of the grave.“It, it,” she sniffled. “It can't be.” Her fingers touched my arms wearily.“Alina?” I could see how scared she was to even say the name.“How? How? You are alive!” she said a little too loud.“Shhhh!” I pulled her back to sit beside me.I shouldn’t be smiling. But the joy on her face was making it impossible to keep a straight face.“You're alive!” she said, this time in a whisper.“How?” The tears were coming back.“I survived the fire,” I said. I was crying, but she was crying even harder when she wrapped me in her arms and hugged me like I'd disappear if she let go.“No, Alina. Where have you been? What happened to you? How did this happen?” She finally pulled away from the hug. But it didn’t seem

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Spill

    ALINA'S POV. I did not know what had come over me, but I wanted to hold on the the strands until they were no longer attached to her scalp, and even then, it will not match the pain she had put me through. Not Even half. But today was Grandma Vale's day and for her sake, I let go of her. Her face was sweaty, her eyes red, and they were little boils popping on her scalp. A grin I could not hide appeared on my face. But Aria was too busy trying to stand on her feet to even care. One advantage of being her twin and growing up with her, I know her weakness.. Want to end Aria in a fight? Grab her hair. "You bitch!" she gritted. But she was too scared to step closer. I could see it in her eyes. "This is just the beginning." I scowled. "I thought you were my friend!" She yelled. People were starting to gather. It won't be nice to create a scene today of all days. I did not want to do what will hurt Edrick or Mr. Vale, or any of them. So, I moved closer to Aria, grabbed her chin,

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    In Peace

    Alina's POVI was on his lap, my head on his chest, and my shirt halfway across the room.There was just something about this calm silence that felt so intimate, that made me feel so close to Edrick. Like we had never been separated before."I love you, Alina," he broke the silence.I froze.I slowly moved away from him and started looking around for my shirt.He held my hands tightly."Let me go, Edrick. I need to leave.""Alina...""It's Liana!" I snapped.He went silent, but his eyes did not leave mine as I started to put my things together."I need to leave.""I know it's you. It has to be you!" His voice broke.I did not want to stay here any longer. I did not want to look at him any longer. It hurt. It hurt to do so.But at this moment, I was scared, scared to admit I was Alina.Because the Edrick I know will fight to have me once he knows it's me."Alina," he stood up, not bothering to button his shirt up. He placed his hands on the small of my back and pulled me closer."Pleas

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Betrayed

    Aria’s POVI searched again.I checked the nightstand, the vanity drawers, my jewelry box, the wristwatch cases, the closet, my handbag, and my wallet! Hell, I even checked the bathroom! But I could not find Edrick’s debit card.Did he really take it? No, he wouldn't.I sat on the floor amidst scattered bags, dresses, and half-folded rugs.Edrick would not do this to me.He had moved out completely, that I understood. But taking his card? He always left it here carelessly in case I needed something for myself or Jaime.I stood up and checked the messages on my phone.Clarice, the lady from our association, was having an auction. I needed Edrick’s card badly. If not, those women might suspect something is not right in my life. From there, they will start monitoring my life. Once they find out Edrick is leaving me, I will be kicked out of the association. Those bitches have always hated me because I was not high-born. Without Edrick's name, I will go back to being nothing. Purely irrele

    Aria’s POVI did not stop running until I reached the part of the house where I could crashout in peace. The library.No one ever comes here. The door slammed shut behind me, but it did nothing to quiet the noise in my head. My chest rose and fell too fast, anger and humiliation burning through me

    Alina’s POVHe was frozen.So was I.For a moment that felt too long and yet not long enough, the world narrowed down to just us. The parking lot noise faded into nothing. The passing cars, the distant horns, the murmur of people walking by, all of it disappeared. It was just his eyes on mine, heav
