Marc commanded with annoyance. "But, don't you love me? Aren't we lovers?" Cassandra snapped. "Stop with the nonsense! You and I, can't and will never get married, Sandra!" he said in a stern voice. "Stop acting stupid! We still have a blood relationship. I say again, it's impossible for me and you to get married!" "But, why don't you and I run away from here? We could go somewhere far away. A place where everyone doesn't know us," Cassandra said half-desperately. "I don't care about anything, as long as I can see you every now and then."

Indeed, what the Goddess of the Moon said is true, if soul mate is something that can never be ignored and also ordered by anyone and in fact this will be a good thing that can never be avoided even by anyone.

There is nothing we can do other than a wedding, after all, this is something we can never ignore, it's better if we get married immediately. I can't immediately have much to help us carry out this very tiring struggle. I don't know what to do and what a clear ending like marriage will be one of our ways to solve this problem."

"It's just two people who are in love and getting married. Why is it so hard?" "It's a matter of identity. Falling in love has always been a matter of two people, but marriage is a matter of two families. And your identity determines the issue between two countries." Emily smiled bitterly. This was why she didn't want to get married or fall in love. She didn't want a marriage that she couldn't control! However, given her status, she had no choice but to be willful. Evangeline collapsed on the bed and said gloomily, "Do you think Zion has a way to solve it?"

She turned and went up the stairs, vanishing into the sanctum of her and Dad's room, leaving us in a thick silence. The sound of her footsteps had hardly dissipated when Josh, the eternal opportunist, made his move. "Fixed marriage? Man, you're seriously getting the bad end of the deal. Your marriage is like a subscription package, you understand? Limited-time offer," he said, attempting a joke, which fell on deaf ears amidst the charged air.

That is a reason to celebrate,” he continues while I shake my head. He suddenly becomes serious. “No, really, man. Some people did not really recognise your marriage, until now.” I narrow my eyes, trying to analyse his words. Amari and I took our vows. Whether we consummated or not does not change that she is my wife.
