ALINA'S POV.

“And I tell you uncle, it's a great path…”

Hannah kept blabbering to her uncle about some investment deals.

I kept zoning out. I know designs l. That's all. I find all these money business talks quite boring and complicated.

My eyes searched the space subconsciously.

Subconsciously for someone I shouldn’t be looking for.

Edrick.

He still wasn't back from whatever errand it is that Aria sent him on.

Speaking of Aria, I wonder where she went.

She left with Anna.

Even though I

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    The Missing Piece

    Edrick's POVI didn't know where to go to or what to even do next.Anna, Anna, Anna...The frustration she was causing me was getting out of hand, from the messy room, to how terrible she looked, to the fact that she was at Adrian's house, wearing his clothes, or the refusal to cooperate."Hey!" Alina called my name. I hadn't realized I had gotten to our room and was even walking past the door."What's wrong?" Her voice snapped me back to reality.I shook my head."How are you?" I asked.She smiled. "Good?" She shrugged her shoulders.Again, she really did look good. Dad's words did not get to her, and I was proud of her for that.But then, I need to warn him never to say something like that to my wife."Edrick, when are we going to give the statements?" she asked as we both entered the bedroom.I let out a breath."What?" she asked. "Is something wrong?"Of course, something is wrong, but the last thing I'd do is add to her problems by telling her."No. I'll speak to John. Just get r

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    The sweater

    Edrick's POVShe can't move out. I would have known. I would have noticed.Fuck, no. She was here yesterday."Hey," I almost jumped at the sound of the voice."Hannah!" I called."Sorry, did I scare you?" My cousin rested on the door, hands folded as she gave me a knowing smile."What?" I asked."She's not in here?" she asked, eyes scanning the room."No."I said, stepping further into the room.Hannah followed."So..." she said, sitting on the bed."You and Alina..."God, whatever it was she wanted to talk about, this was not the time. I needed to talk to Anna."Yeah." I smiled."I'm confused," Hannah said, her eyes locked on mine, waiting for answers. Answers I knew she wouldn't give up until she got."And Aria?""She's going to rot in jail. That's all that I can say."She gave me another weird nod."What?" I almost yelled."Nothing. I just hope everything works out in the end."I rolled my eyes."Spill it, Hannah. What is it you really want to say?"She shook her head. "Nothing rea

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    The Empty Room

    Edrick's POVA text from John first thing in the morning was not on my bingo card.Of course, it was about the case. It was short and straight to the point.{We need Alina and Anna to give a statement later.}Typical John.I stretched my hands, yawning as I did.My eyes went to Jaime. He was still asleep. He looked nothing like the troubled boy who misses his mother.I wish he gets this much peace all through his life.I stepped out of the room, closing the door behind me, then went back to our room.To my surprise, Alina was in there. She sat by the mirror, applying lotion on her thighs.I gulped at the sight of it, stretched out on the vanity.Focus, I snapped at myself."You're up?" I asked. She almost lost her balance at the sound of my voice. Her hands shook, making the lotion fall and hit the ground."Edrick," she placed her hands on her chest."Sorry." I moved forward."You're up early.""I needed to give Clover her meds," she pointed out.Her voice was calm, normal, as if the

    “Not here. In Mommy’s room,” Jaime said.My heart stopped.My eyes shifted to Alina.She was still sitting on the bed, her expression unreadable. But I knew that look.She was hurt.“Jaime…” I started.“Please, Daddy.”His fingers tightened around the teddy bear.I looked at Alina again.She forced a smile.“Go with him.”“Alina—”“It’s okay, Edrick.”But it wasn’t.I knew it wasn’t.I looked at Jaime. His eyes were filling with tears.I took a deep breath, then faced Alina.“Sorry,” I mouthed before following Jaime down the hall to Aria’s bedroom.I had made sure our new room was far from hers, just so it wouldn’t bother Alina.And now, I could only wonder what she felt knowing I’d be spending the night here.Jaime pushed the door open.A cold silence welcomed us.The bed was laid, the floors were cleaned, and all her makeup, perfume, and stuff were neatly arranged on the vanity. It felt like she still lived here, and that alone made my hair stand on end.Jaime let go of my hand when

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Rejected

    Alina's POV"Edrick!" Mr. Vale's voice broke my train of thoughts.My head snapped to the door where he stood, all frowns and disgust."Grandpa!" Jaime rushed to give him a hug.He tapped the boy's head, a smile appearing on his face.Then he turned back to me and Edrick, his frown returning."We need to talk," he said.For a moment, I thought he was talking to me. I wanted to ask, "Why?"But Edrick stepped forward."I'll be back in a second," he whispered to me before following his father out of the kitchen.I watched until they were out of view before my attention returned to the kids.They had finished their meals.I took a bowl and put the soup for Clover."Jaime, do you want chicken soup?" I asked, making sure I had a bright smile."No, thank you!" He shook his head."Mommy, Jaime and I want to play in the gardens.""Clover, I don't think...""...Please, Mommy, I won't jump or play rough." She pouted.I sighed.Well, she does need some sunlight on her skin."Alright." I turned th

  • Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée    Not Mine

    Edrick’s POV“But, Daddy…”His sad eyes met mine. “Why did she leave? Did I do something…”“...No, son, no. Your mommy just has other things to attend to.” I swallowed.“So, she still loves me?” he asked.“Of course she does!” I forced a smile. It made him smile a bit.I am such a fool. Such a fool for not thinking about this part. I have never paid much attention to the closeness between Aria and Jaime. If I had, I would have known he’d miss her so much.“So, when will she be back?” he asked. With the way he looked at me, I knew my answer would determine whether or not he would feel better.“Soon, son. Soon. Before you know it.”He nodded, then leaned back a bit.“That’s good.” A smile appeared on his face.It wasn’t as bright as the one he had earlier, but it was something.“I also want a snack,” he said, standing up.“Okay,” I said. “Go get some from your nanny.”He started running for the door.Something twisted in my chest.“Wait,” I called.He stopped just as he was about to clo

    Alina’s POVI practically ran into the club.My lungs burned, my head still slightly heavy from the fever, but I forced myself forward. The bass was already thundering through the walls. I slipped behind the counter just as my boss turned around.“You’re late,” he barked.“I’m sorry,” I said quickl

    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

  • 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
