Arranged Couples Novels & Stories

***** Upon entering the room, Charlotte was stupefied. It was clear that the room was for couples. The ornaments and decorations were romantic and sweet. There was a bunch of rose petals shaped into hearts along with the words ‘I love you’ on the wide bed. She must say, it was quite romantic. Just looking at it made her heart race. She looked at Darren visibly surprised and asked, “Did you prepare all these? Did you arrange all of it?” Darren pulled the suitcase in, closed the door, and smiled at her. “So, what do you think? I specifically arranged it for this trip. I sincerely hope that we can make good memories here.”

We blended into the crowd, performing the well-rehearsed dance of a picture-perfect couple. At one point, a well-dressed woman approached us, her eyes bright with interest. "You two make such a beautiful couple," she gushed, smiling as though we were a fairytale come to life. I forced a smile, nodding politely. "Thank you. We’re very fortunate." She looked between us, something calculating in her gaze. "And to think, a union of two such powerful families—it's like something out of a novel. You must be thrilled."

“Why, sir?” “We can’t arrive in separate cars,” I muttered. “It’ll raise suspicion.” “Yes, Mr. Ray. Noted.” “Are they following closely behind?” “Yes, sir.

Abel nodded, stepping out. A moment later, Emma appeared, hesitating before opening the front door.

He just watched me walk toward him with an expression I could not read, which was already irritating. The priest began. He spoke about unity and partnership and the sacred bond between mates, and I stood there and let the words wash past me like water. None of it landed. None of it was real. This was a transaction dressed up in silk and ceremony, and I was the currency being exchanged. "Do you, Cecilia, Alpha Queen of the Greenville Pack, take this man as your mate and husband?" I wanted to say no. I wanted to tear this dress off and walk straight out of this room and let the consequences fall where they would. I felt the words sitting in my throat, ready.

Dave said and the chairman grinned as he turned to glance at his son and daughter in law before facing his front back. "I mean. He can't defy me and still not give me grandkids ''. The chairman chuckled and Dave smiled lightly. Leonardo Vincento. "Thank you so much Mr CEO for that amazing welcome speech! Now let's move to another category!". The anchor said checking his pad and he smiled naughtily when he saw his screen. "Our next category is a couple's dance! And the first loving cute couple to open the dance floor is our very own handsome Ceo and his gorgeous wife Lady Camila!". The anchor announced and Everyone began clapping madly.

I don't think their blessings are going to work in this situation. I was thankful that rest of the event was going fine with no drama or Christian's stupid remark but, when exactly did my fate has favoured me?? All eyes turned to Matthew as, once again, asked for everyone's attention. “ So here's another exciting announcement guys. Since this new couple is so in love and desperate to be with each other, we are having them married in two weeks.” The hall erupted with hoots and cheers another time as he completed with a wide smile on his face but mine was a different case.

It's children's business anyway. “ We are serious Kace, this marriage is to strengthen our company and by marrying Tessa, the Montgomery family's company which has gone bankrupt will be merged with ours and it'll become one, “ My dad said with a serious face. “ Oh so this marriage is arranged for business purposes then “ I mumbled sadly. I couldn't believe my parents would even come up with such a thing but as the first son of our family, I always wanted to please my parents. The marriage wouldn't do any harm to me because I was diagnosed with suspected erectile dysfunction, so my doctor said. I have difficulty getting an erection for any woman at all.

I asked as I stroked a few strands of my hair behind my ear. “Oh yes. Aria! Oh my goodness!” He said. Jerome hasn't changed much since high school, he was my very good friend back in school. “Where have you been? After high school, you just disappeared like that. I reached out to your mom a year ago, and she told me you got married” He got a seat for the both of us. “ It was an arranged marriage, but now I'm divorced” I smiled weakly. We gisted a lot as we tried to catch up, then we exchanged contacts. It was getting late, we promised to check up on each other then he helped me get Anna into the car as I drove off.

He said and I looked at him surprised. Mum and Dad's marriage was arranged. Her dad was just telling her now. "Kim, even if you don't get married to Alfred, you will either get wedded to the son of Jeguk industries or rather you will get married to one of the twins of Marshall group of companies," He explained and pecked my hair as tears fell from my eyes.

The only thing is they won't be able to replicate the arrangement if we do separate, because at this point, everyone would know that it would just be an arranged marriage to placate them all into acceptance." "Yeah, that's not going to fly," Sydney said, agreeing with me. "The news has already been going crazy about that, so I don't see anyone falling for it again."
