Ils se sont aimés pendant huit ans. Pour Noah Lambert, Delphine Colin est passée de la femme idéalisée qu'il gardait au fond du cœur à une présence dont il avait hâte de se débarrasser. Pendant trois ans, elle a fait des efforts, jusqu'à ce que la dernière parcelle de ses sentiments s'épuise. Delphine a alors perdu toute illusion et elle est partie. Le jour de la rupture, Noah a ricané : « Delphine, j'attends que tu viennes me supplier de nous remettre ensemble. » Mais, à force d'attendre, ce qu'il a appris, ça a été la nouvelle du mariage de Delphine. Fou de rage, il a composé son numéro : « Tu as assez fait de scandales ? » À l'autre bout du fil, une voix grave d'homme a répondu : « Monsieur Lambert, ma fiancée est sous la douche, elle ne peut pas répondre à votre appel. » Noah a ricané et a raccroché aussitôt, persuadé que ce n'était qu'une stratégie de Delphine pour le faire tourner en bourrique. Jusqu'au jour du mariage de Delphine. Lorsqu'il l'a vue, vêtue d'une robe blanche, tenant son bouquet et avançant vers un autre homme, il a compris enfin : Delphine ne voulait vraiment plus de lui. Comme un fou, il s'est précipité devant elle : « Delphine, je sais que j'ai eu tort. Ne te marie pas avec un autre, d'accord ? » Delphine a soulevé sa jupe en passant devant lui : « Monsieur Lambert, tu n'avais pas dit que toi et Anne étiez faits l'un pour l'autre ? Alors, pourquoi venir t'agenouiller à mon mariage ? »

La veille de mon mariage, je me suis retrouvée dans le lit de mon beau-frère, et j’étais dévastée. Mon fiancé, ainsi que tout le monde, m’ont accusée d’avoir trompé. Je me détestais… jusqu’à ce que je découvre la vérité. C’était un coup monté entre mon fiancé et sa maîtresse — ma meilleure amie — pour se débarrasser de moi. La réputation pour laquelle j’avais travaillé si dur pendant des années, ma vie, mon emploi… tout était en péril. « Épousons-nous et divorçons après un an. » Il n’y avait qu’un seul moyen de me sauver : épouser mon beau-frère aîné, le plus grand ennemi de mon ex-fiancé. Je ne savais pas si c’était une bonne idée, mais rien n’était plus important que de sauver ma carrière et ma réputation. Je n’avais pas le choix…

Mon mariage avec le parrain, Laurent Delacroix, était toujours à deux doigts d'être consommé. Nous étions fiancés depuis cinq ans et nous avions organisé 32 mariages, mais à chaque fois, nous avions un problème au milieu de la cérémonie et nous ne pouvions pas la terminer. Au 33ème mariage, au milieu de la cérémonie, le mur extérieur de l'église s'est effondré, j'ai été écrasée et mise en soins intensifs. J'avais le crâne fendu et une grave commotion cérébrale, et l'hôpital a émis plus d'une dizaine d'avis critiques... J'ai lutté sur la ligne de vie et de mort pendant deux mois avant de survivre. Mais le jour de ma sortie de l'hôpital, j'ai surpris la conversation de Laurent avec son subordonné le plus fiable. « Monsieur, si vous êtes vraiment amoureux de cette pauvre étudiante, vous n'avez qu'à rompre les fiançailles avec Mlle Katrina. La famille Delacroix est assez puissante pour arrêter tous les ragots, pourquoi devez-vous créer des accidents encore et encore... » « Elle a failli mourir. » La voix du subordonné portait la désapprobation. Laurent est resté silencieux un long moment avant de prendre la parole : « Je n'ai pas le choix... Il y a dix ans, Monsieur Mordeau m'a sauvé au prix de sa vie et de celle de sa femme. Je ne peux lui rendre cette faveur que par un contrat de mariage. » « Mais j'aime Sophie et je ne veux épouser personne d'autre qu'elle. » J'ai regardé les cicatrices sur tout mon corps et j'ai pleuré en silence. Il s'avérait que toute la douleur que j'avais endurée n'était pas due au destin, mais le résultat des actions délibérées de la personne que j'aimais tant. Puisqu'il ne pouvait pas faire de choix, c'était à moi de mettre fin à tout cela pour lui.

Shotgun marriage usually happens when there is an unintended pregnancy resulting in marriage in a hurry or enforced but... not in my case. "Desmond Cro'esnt, do you take this woman to be your wife, to live together in matrimony, to love her, to honor her, to comfort her, and to keep her in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?" I looked straight into Desmond's eyes. They are raven black and it does match his long, wavy black hair. "I do," he answered as he smiled innocently at me. Making himself look promising. Then, the priest turned to me. "Neiva Ariella Hillstone, do you take this man to be your husband, to live together in matrimony, to love him, to honor him, to comfort him, and to keep him in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?" I still can't believe that I'm going to marry this man. He looks happy, waiting for my answer. His white suit is making him look even kinder. The only witness we have here is the priest and his men in black suits, currently pointing a gun right into my head. "Time is running, Neiva. It's either you marry me or you die." His innocent smile turned into a devilish one. This suits him more because this is the real him. And that answered your question. My shotgun marriage happened to be the literal meaning of it. I closed my eyes and deeply breathed before answering, "I do." "You're mine now." He pulled me by my waist and pressed his lips against mine. I am now officially the wife of this Psychopath Billionaire Mafia Boss.
