We sit in silence for a moment, the ticking of the clock being the only sound in the room. "I considered what you said that day when we first met." He starts and I frown. What was it again? Ah! I told him about my problem and how my life will be hell if I don't get married to him. "Oh." I didn't know that he remembered it. Though,he is the King Alpha. He out of everyone else should be knowing of what the consequences a human has to face after they fail the marriage trials.

"Girl, are you crazy? Is this some kind of joke? You wanna get married to… James? That thing?" I shrugged. "What? He's a human. People can change." "But not him!" Tracie retorted, flipping her long, bronze hair past her shoulder. "What makes you think he'll change when you get married to him?

I hadn't wanted to see them because I knew they would criticize me for this.

His words covered Kathleen's heart in a cloud of comfort as they expressed his intentions towards her. "Yes! Kathleen, we are not some teenagers who would date and waste time, I want to marry you. I wanted to propose to you properly since you deserve it but your psycho husband ruined things for me today. I feel very threatened and at a miserable place." Alec, after almost proposing her, looked away and sighed. Kathleen was surprised to hear what he had just told her.

The family’s reaction would be mixed, and they might even rebuke us, the media and public ought to insult my masculinity like they are already doing.

"You will be in it for the money. See him as a bank and the money he'd give you as a loan. He needs you for his own personal reasons and you need him. You're both using each other Lila, nothing is wrong with that." Lila shook her head at that. "Everything is wrong with it Ema." She said as he sat down on the couch. "I have dreamt of my marriage since I was a little girl. My husband would be madly in love with me and he'd be willing to worship the floor I walked on. And my children? I dreamt of having a lot of them. And some pets, a few dogs and a cat that would be the Queen of our house. A contract marriage is the complete opposite of that dream. Ema, I just can't."

"Sir, don't be fooled by her. She is married, has a child, and just had a miscarriage a short while ago." I watched her theatrics with bitter irony. That day, Erik had been facing away from her, so she didn't recognize him. Erik wrapped his arm around my shoulder. "So what? I like her. I'm willing to be her lover."
