Edrick’s POV

When she said she needed the bathroom, I let her go. I watched her walk away, slowly at first, then faster, as if she could not wait to get away from me. I told myself to ignore it. I told myself it was nothing.

My phone rang.

Adrian.

Why is he calling me when he is supposed to be here?

I stepped aside and answered.

“Are you at the gala?” he asked.

“Yes. Where are you?”

“Delayed flight, but I'm on my way. Listen. You have to be careful. The leader is here.”

My chest tightened. “Who

  • 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

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Wrong right

    Alina's POV"What? Why has no one said a word to me?" My question was directed mainly to Hannah. I cannot believe that the sickness has gotten bad to the point that she no longer wants to be alive.I tried to fight back my tears. I did not want to hurt them further than they already were. But it was too late, because Lila was already sobbing. Hannah wrapped an arm around her, tears streaming down her cheeks too.Lord knows I will never understand the depth of their grief. I had only known Grandma Vale for a short period of time. Yet, the thought of losing her was killing me. What about them? They had known her, lived with her through sad and happy moments, through the good and the bad days, throughout their lives. I can only wonder about their level of ache. I can only wonder what they were feeling. I could only wonder what Edrick was feeling.My heart stung at the thought of him grieving. I remember clearly the relationship he had with her on the island. The way she'd yell at him lik

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    God

    Alina's POVI was seated in my favourite spot at work. The balcony where all my creativity flows. But today, I was unable to put the pen on the sketchpad.Not just today. For the past two days, all I did was sit here, watch the beautiful view, and procrastinate. That is all I have done since the day Edrick left my apartment.He had called me Alina. And I had sent him away. So why was I wasting my days waiting on the balcony as if he would sneak up on me like he has done in the past?But today, the third day after that incident, I finally started giving up. Maybe he heard me and chose to stay away. How long will he avoid this office?"Liana? Are you busy?" Hannah wrecked my train of thought. I was so engulfed in it, I hadn't noticed when she appeared."We have a guest," she added.Hope welled in my heart. Was it Edrick?But Hannah would not address Edrick as a guest. Still, I kept an open mind. Well, at least until she continued."She is a fan of your designs. Can you spare a minute to

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Possibility?

    Edrick's POVAlina is Liana.I was still confused as to how that is possible. But then, deep down, I was convinced she was the one. That was the only explanation to the pull I had towards her. To how every touch, every kiss, felt so familiar, so drowning, so irresistible and so addictive.But again, it made no sense. I was there. I watched that warehouse burn. I did not leave the spot until I was convinced she was really gone. The place was surrounded by policemen. I heard her scream before the place exploded. Her jewelry was found there alongside remains.The more I tried to make sense of the whole issue, the more frustrated I got.Instead of going home like I had intended, I went to John's office."Congrats on your promotion," I said, as I sat down in the vacant seat in his office.John looked at me as if I had just fallen out of space. I did not blame him. After losing Alina, I blamed him for not acting fast and then proceeded to cut him off."Well, isn't this a surprise?" he said,

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    no

    Alina's POVHe said it.He said my name.He stood frozen in place and stared into my eyes in surprise as if he was just figuring this out.I did not know what to do. Whether to move, or to just stand there and let him believe what he had just discovered."Bu— Bu— But how?" His voice shook and I swear his eyes were slowly filling with tears."You, it, it can't," A bit of doubt flashed through his eyes. Still, his gaze would not leave mine.He looked away briefly, trying to digest the information. All I needed was a little bit of doubt from his side, then I will deny this completely."Alina, you survived? But I watched you burn to ashes." His face twisted in pain as he uttered that word. Still, I remained silent."How are you her?" He inched closer, and closer, trapping me between him and the wall again. He tucked the strands of hair in my face behind my ears. Then with hands that trembled slowly, he cupped my face. His hands were cold, but that was not the cause of the shiver running d

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Her Tears

    Edrick’s POVShe was shaking so hard I thought she might break in my arms. And for some reason, it felt like I was the one falling apart. My chest tightened with every sob that escaped her lips, and I held her closer, like maybe if I held on tight enough, I could stop her pain from spilling any fur
