Edrick’s POV

Danger.

The word echoed in my mind.

I forced my face to remain composed.

“I’ll get to the bottom of this,” I said firmly. “I promise you.”

But beneath my controlled tone, panic was clawing its way through me.

She could be fine.

She could have changed her mind.

She could be hiding somewhere, determined to cut all ties.

Or…

She could be in real danger.

Leonardo’s face flashed in my mind.

I straightened.

“Take me to the station.”

The train station was crowded as usual, people moving

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Satycation.

    Edrick’s POVI made sure to put my phone on silent before joining her in the pool. The last thing I wanted was Adrian blowing up my phone with calls. And knowing Adrian, he would do that.I had three executive meetings and a presentation to attend, but the second I heard Hannah say Liana wasn’t going to work, it felt like a demon had possessed me and was calling out to me desperately.I wanted to spend that leisure time with her so badly.Since I had them move in, we never had the chance to spend quality time together. There was no way I was missing that opportunity for some dumb meetings. Besides, Adrian would handle the meetings just fine. That, I was sure of.Whatever this crazy feeling was, Liana, I was done fighting it back. I was going to enjoy the moment to the fullest. And I did not care how suspicious her whole existence was. I wanted what I wanted.With how red she had turned just from me asking to join her, I knew this afternoon was going to be worth it.“So, Liana Bennett,

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Ours

    Alina's POVBetween Edrick and me, I did not know who was angrier.We both drove in silent frustration from the station back to the penthouse.I did not want to talk about it, and he knew that too. Jason refused to talk.Fuck. The lying rat denied knowing Aria completely.If I wasn’t his ex, I would have bought his lie because of how convincing he sounded.With the way things are going, I know he will get his bail as soon as his lawyer shows up. And that's it. This case will be closed.“Whatever happens, just know I won't let anyone hurt you or your daughter.”YOUR DAUGHTER.I wanted to scream so badly that it was his daughter too. But that would be bullshit. I can't do it. At least not yet.When we got back, Edrick offered to go pick up Clover.I said yes. That was the only way he got to bond with his daughter.“You are sleeping here?” I asked when he got back, kicked his shoes off, and made his way to the bedroom across from ours.“I live here!” He raised a brow.My face flushed ins

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Linked

    Alina's POVI was lazing around.Edrick took Clover to school. She finally had a chance to spend time with her father.If the excitement in her eyes didn't make me feel guilty as hell, then I don't know what would.I sat by the porch, watching the beautiful view in front of me.When I was first brought to this place years ago, I was in panic mode, worried about Aria and hoping she would just show up and switch back.But now, I get to peacefully enjoy the luxury penthouse without bothering about anything else.I was just enjoying the taste of hot coffee on my tongue when a call came in, ruining my peace."Hello?" I answered."I sent you a video." That was all Edrick said before ending the call.He didn't even say hi or tell me how he got my number.I shook my head and went straight to my DMs to check what he was so worked up about.It was CCTV footage from last night. A man leaving my apartment block. Even without seeing his face, I could tell he was someone I knew.I was proved right

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    New destination

    Alina's POVI should have said no to his offer.I was going to say no. But the moment he mentioned Clover, I gave up.I know who Aria is. I know what she has done and what she is capable of. If Edrick is the only chance for safety for my daughter, then I am willing to take all the help he has to offer.Clover was at the table, munching her cereal while Edrick and Lila helped me pack.Just clothes and other necessities. This would not be a permanent move, so I did not bother packing more than two suitcases.Lila promised to visit as she drove off to her house.Clover and I got into Edrick’s car, and he drove us to our new destination.At first, I did not recognize the place.It was a huge building with many high-class apartments. The kind of place you cannot enter without a face scan and a thumbprint.When we entered the elevator, Edrick skipped all the floor numbers from 1-49 and clicked on a button that had the letter P on it. He inserted his fingerprint, and only then did the eleva

  • 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
