Married By Contract Destined By Fate Novels & Stories

“Why don’t you read it out loud yourself?” I looked down as Jarvis started reading the scroll. “…Both parties shall enter into the marriage bond if neither of them finds their fated mate first. In the event a fated mate is found by either party, then the contract is null and void; however, the original alliance in effect to continue cooperation will remain in effect until said contract is up for renewal or new negotiations.” I smiled and wrapped my arm around Neriah’s waist. “So, cooperation continues, but this marriage alliance is null and void, gentlemen.”

Waiting. My hands shook as I turned to the first page of the contract, the paper crisp and official-looking. At the top, in bold letters: MARRIAGE AGREEMENT BETWEEN DAMIAN ALEXANDER COLE AND SCARLET MARIE HAYES. Seeing our names together like that made something twist in my chest. "Let's go through the terms," Marcus said, his voice carefully neutral. "Page one outlines the basic structure. This is an eighteen-month contractual marriage with the option to renew if both parties agree."

No 6: You may touch nothing which belongs to him. No 7: You may not invite your friends to his house, oh! Especially male friends. No 8: You may not talk and spend time with his housemaids. No 9: You may not meet his family without his permission. And the last one, Soo-Yun, you know it is a contract marriage, so you can’t stop him from dating anyone or meeting anyone or he will also not stop you.” Won-Chal cleared her and took a glance at his friend, who was staring at Soo-Yun with no emotions. Soo-Yun nodded in order of agreement. Won-Chal passed her the pen, and she glanced at Jun-Sang, who was gazing at her emotionlessly. She sighed and signed the agreement. After that, she bowed to Won-C

She used to hope that someday Bill would love her and be married to him for real. A marriage with real love and not with a contract. She would become his real wife and not the contractual wife. At that time, she knew it would never happen. Fate was a disaster for her and everything she experienced with him was a disaster. She hated him all her life. She never wanted to see him again. She regretted everything with him and she even cursed him until fate meddled with them again. How could she hate her tragic past when fate brought her to marry the man she loved for a long time?

“Rosemary, do you promise to love, protect and honor Daniel? Forsaking all others. Faithful only to him and your children.” Rosemary closed her eyes to the tears falling down her cheeks and nodded as her voice squeaked out, “I swear it.” Smiling for the life that he knew Rosemary would now have, the one she deserved, Nicholas raised his hands. “Then I now pronounce that the Fates have bound you as mates. You are now husband and wife.” With those words, the ancient spell of binding was burned onto their ring fingers and the sash disappeared into the air around them like a million tiny fireflies on a Summer night.

He's now Emily and James's son. Apparently, they grew a liking toward him. "You see my mom and dad got married by contract." Aria advertised with a smile on her face. Charlotte nodded. "Yep. I've definitely heard that before." Aria chuckled. "I know, but now I'm happy that their marriage is real. At first, the contract thing confused me, you know? Especially after learning that contracts expire. I can't believe I get to watch." She beamed, then looked at her parents' happy faces.

Sheila replied, “No. Mary said he was too drunk and mistook her for me. They didn’t do anything because he fell asleep. “But the fact remains that they shared the same bed. She also told me she’ll use that to make him take responsibility.” “Aunt Enid, I don’t love him, so it doesn’t matter to me. But Uncle Marvin has always hoped we’d end up together and treated Kent like his student. “Uncle Marvin might be disappointed, so please talk to him when you have time. Don’t let him feel too bad. Love depends on fate.” Love was not about who came first but about destiny. Even childhood sweethearts would not end up married if they were not destined to be together. Those destined would meet even acro

He said with a bit of professionalism in his voice, but in an instant he was pulling her along the large hall heading for the elevator. “Now that we are finally married, there are rules.” Kayden said darkly and Crystal felt goose bumps peel at the upper part of her skin. “Some rules that I might have omitted in the contract.” “If it’s not included in the contract that we signed, isn’t that invalid?” She asked moving away from him creating as much as many space possible between them. “They are only invalid when I say so.” He said smugly with some sort of arrogant aura radiating off from him. The elevator beeped and opened almost immediately he got out of the elevator and Crystal came running

“Hey, everyone! Can I get your attention? We need to gather in the main sitting room. It’s important!” Josh clapped his hands to get everyone’s attention again. “All right, everyone! Moving on to the Fifth challenge we have for you all.” Everywhere was silent. “This time, it’s not going to be a competition,” Josh continued, a sly smile forming on his lips. “Instead, we’re going to have a unique opportunity—a perfect marriage event.” A wave of murmurs rippled through the couples, and I could see their faces lighting up with enthusiasm. Rachel and I, however, exchanged shocked looks. “A marriage event?” she whispered, her eyes wide. “Is he serious?”

"Agreed, Lorcan. Three months it is." With our terms set, we both understood that this was not a conventional marriage built on love or desire. It was a strategic alliance, a means to protect our pack and ensure its future. We would play our roles, fulfill our duties, and keep our personal lives separate. As we stood there, the remnants of the shattered chain clinking at our feet, I couldn't help but wonder what lay ahead for us. Would this arrangement bring us closer or tear us apart? Only time would reveal the answers, but for now, we had a common goal—to navigate the challenges that lay before us and forge a path for the survival of our pack.
