It's Better To Marry Than Burn Novels & Stories

“Congratulations in advance, Ma’am on your daughter’s wedding. Marriage in my opinion is like building a brick house on marsh. It could go wrong and at the same time turn out perfectly. But I can’t be too practical because then again, there is no fixed manual for what it is and how it works. I just know that as long as you are with a person who can tolerate, care, and understand what it means to be in it with you, then it might be the best thing to ever happen.”

"Whhyy?" " Marriage isn't a ring worn or the paper signed. It is not something endured but savored. It is the union of two hearts beating as one, each that would sacrifice for the other's happiness and wellbeing. Marriage is meant to be perfect and not a compromise. I can't marry you King Eric because you've found someone already and I wouldn't want to be the wedge between you two."

"And you make me feel like I don't have to run anymore." They said nothing more. Didn't have to. Because some fires don't roar. Some fires are silent. But they burn just the same. And sometimes, they save you.

--- T‍hat nigh‌t‍, we didn’t talk about the fu‌tur⁠e, or‌ the media, or the me⁠ss that still waited outside those wall‍s. We jus‌t sat t⁠here‌ — two peo‌ple who had been⁠ dragged through chaos and somehow come out still holding o‌n. And for the first t‍ime sin⁠ce this marriage‍ began, it didn’t feel like a mistake⁠ to fix or a secret to protect. I‍t felt‍ like a c‌hoice. ‌ ‌A be‌autifu‍l, terrifyin‍g, unsto‌ppable choice.

"Once we're married, he'll never have another chance to harass you like this." I nodded and leaned against Matteo's shoulder. I knew I needed to marry Matteo as soon as possible and cut off Enrico's delusions completely.

"Excuse me?" "You see us fayagans we don't marry with rings or jewels or whatever you people get married with these days . . . We marry with fire." "Marry with fire? What does that mean marry with fire?" she asked. "I breathe fire onto you and I mark you. And instead of wearing my ring you wear my burns. Burns that you won't even notice are there when you're close to me but when you're away from me will cause you a pain that you have never before felt; a pain that will eventually be your death should you not find your way back to me."

But slowly, she noticed a subtle change in his eyes and the tightening of his jaw. “Has he hurt you?” he asked, a protective edge in his voice almost easily unnoticed. “Not physically, no,” she replied, shaking her head. Lars leaned back, tilting his head as he propped his head with his hand, his eyes narrowing as he considered the situation. “We need to do something—something that will make it clear to him that he has to go.” Natalie looked at him, hope flickering in her eyes mixed with hesitation. “Yes, but what?” He paused for a moment, then leaned forward, his gaze intense but cold. “We get married.” Natalie's eyes widened in shock. “Married? Lars, that's... that's crazy.”

' She cursed inwardly. Seeing that Charlotte was no longer saying anything, Amy decided to take the opportunity to humiliate Charlotte. It would be a little payback for yesterday. "I'm sure that the marriage between you and Sebastian is a contract marriage. There is no possible way it is a love marriage. I mean look at you. No man in their right frame of mind would want to marry you much less Sebastian Gerano," Amy taunted and the other models roared with laughter. Charlotte clenched her fists in anger. She was angry because Amy was right about the marriage between her and Sebastian being a contract marriage.

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. For her, marriage was like a cage due to her past experience, but she did want a pair of strong arms that could hold her and keep her safe.

I nodded, "But I don't understand, why me?" "You're my PA, if I were to explain to anyone they wouldn't get it. If I were to go to some random woman to ask her to marry me, she'd take it as something else and it will lead to another thing. From the looks of it, you are the perfect lady for the job." My heart skipped a beat. If a random male had told me this I wouldn't have reacted but coming from Ivan Bossy Trevelyan definitely earned a reaction. "Okay, if I were to agree with this charade marriage-"
