the man talking, Brandon, takes out an old piece of paper and my heart drops to my feet. I don't like where this is going. "This is the contract you signed with your blood, Alpha. It states that you will marry Simone Burton and make her your Luna. And Queen when you take back the kingdom. That's you showing your gratitude for saving you." My chest tightens as I grab the paper and open it. I feel my breath hitch when I see two thumbprints at the end of the paper.

In Isonbert, it was important to have a marriage contract as the deed. Sienna exerted a little force, and a tearing sound rang. The marriage contract was torn into half and then turned into pieces that could not be put back together. The whole hall was silent.

“But it can't happen again. I need to focus on my duties to the kingdom, to Elena." I feel dizzy. Tears pricks at the corner of my eyes. I am his wife too. I am his mate!

Of course he has the right to do what he wants to do - that was the agreement- as long as he protects me, which he is doing swallow hard. "I understand,” I say "You do?" He looks surprised. "Of course," I say, forcing a smile. "It is a contract marriage. I am grateful. Your kingdom has given me freedom, education. I can't ask for more."

“No, you know the version of me you signed a contract with.” “And I know the woman who stayed and faced her fears, the woman who has done nothing but respect me. Care for me. And most importantly you’ve made this whole contract thing very easy.” Emily’s fingers tightened around the ring. “This arrangement benefits me too,” she said quickly. “Don’t turn me into some selfless saint. We had an agreement. Hope you didn’t forget. It's just a contract. you protect me. I appear to your board of directors as your wife.”

Never in a million years has she imagined talking about marriage with the most annoying guy on earth, but. "Contract marriage." She looks up like the proud princess she is, "It's just to help each other out!" "Deal." He curves his lips. God knows for how long has he been waiting for her, and how painful it has been for him to watch her loving the wrong person who doesn't deserve her.

Jane suddenly realized that the contract had a major flaw, but she couldn't let George have the final say. She immediately spoke up. "Your Majesty, the contract doesn't mention–" "What does it not mention?" George cut her off, feigning ignorance. Jane refused to let him play dumb on such an important matter.

Since the contract states the reason for my continued stay in the palace and has already been signed, please forgive me for being unable to regard you as my true husband."

I deadpanned, earning a playful eye roll from him. Richard, Killian's loyal assistant and beta, entered the room, carrying a thick stack of papers. "The marriage contract, as requested," he announced, placing the documents on the table. Killian's eyes widened at the sight of the papers, his nerves kicking into overdrive. "Right, the contract," he muttered, fidgeting with the edge of his suit jacket. I shot him a reassuring smile, reaching out to take his hand. "Hey, it's okay. We've got plenty of time before the ceremony. Let's sit down and go through this together."
