Novel & Cerita Political Marriage With A Friendly Enemy

The gentleness of the man's voice in Rose's ear made her body tremble even more. "I want to go out." "Where are you going?" "I … I'm going back to the apartment, Kenzie must be waiting for me." "Don't worry, Kenzie has been with Jasmine and he looks happy, you remember that, don't you?" Robert's words made Rose lose her reason. Kenzie clearly looks very happy with this marriage. Rose is now not Aunt but Mommy to the boy. "Have you forgotten, Dear, that today is our first night as husband and wife?" whispered Robert softly.

I wouldn't lie and deny my attraction to this man but I was ready to be sensible enough. It took one last glance from him and I nodded. ******* I was very tired with the way she was answering in monosyllables ever since the beginning of the mating process. We had not fully consummated the marriage, making it very hard for everyone to come to terms with the fact that we were one. If I was being honest with myself the moment to my enemies came around they would figure out that something was wrong and then try to use it against me and that would be a complete disaster no matter what I do.

A deep sigh escaped my lips and I just stood before the priest, calculating a thousand ways to kill him. The ceremony was a live broadcast and was shown all over the place. The violin and the others played soft melody and she walked in with her dad, the man I took his eye, just one. But I promised I'd be back for the next one… I winked at him and just stood still as she walked over. I didn't touch her ans she didn't look at me either.thus was the most awkward marriage you could ever think of. It was marriage of convenience, but even the both of us were fucking enemies and I'm sure, if we mistakenly live in the same house, even if it's for just one night, blood will surely flow and there woul

-The second friend joked. -Shut up, idiots, don't intimidate the girl, please. -Imanol claimed, because his friends are aware that it is not a real marriage, however, they insist on bothering him and that between jokes he falls in love with her. -My friend, it seems that you have not complimented our princess as you should, she kills you with her eyes. -The third friend whispered in his ear.

I blurted out as he nodded. I blinked, stunned. “Marry? What do you mean?” He shifted in his seat, his expression firm yet gentle. “There is a man—my friend’s son. He’s a strong ally and a good man. I think he’s the best one for you.” For a moment, I couldn’t speak, the weight of his words settling over me. Marriage. It wasn’t something I had considered, not since Liam was born. My life had been focused on raising my son, on piecing together the fragments of my identity, not on forging alliances or building new connections.

Sebastian looked back at me with the full, steady weight of a man who had spent three years losing to me on purpose and had married me and fought beside me and held my hand through things that would have broken a different kind of partnership entirely. “Not on the vote,” he said. “No.” I almost smiled. “Good.” “Good?” “I’d be worried if it had,” I said. “I didn’t marry you to agree with you.” Something moved in his face. The real smile arriving the way it always did — unhurried, unannounced, worth everything. “Three weeks,” he said. “Three weeks,” I confirmed. And just like that, with Julian Reyes in custody and two families breathing for the first time in twenty two years and a marriage tha

“But their marriage provided stability and more forces—” “Enough.” I don’t want some poor woman to be stuck with me, her life ruined just because we all want more power and money. “Okay, but your enemies don’t share your opinion, and Marcello allying with the Icardis isn’t a small thing.” “I’m aware of that.” It’s not always good to have partners and allies, especially if their opinions differ from yours. Then there are always people willing to trick you and betray you to get what they want, like my father and Marcello.

“Stop trying to turn us against each other! Whether Benjamin or I got AIDS, we would never abandon the other! Don’t think you can belittle our love!” When Benjamin heard this, he seemed to perk up again. “That’s right! My relationship with Pearl is so strong that a small thing like AIDS would never come between us! Besides, I have loads of money. Even if I contracted AIDS, I can get the best medical team to fight it!” With how sure he sounded, I could not help but try to start a fire. “If you’re so sure, what’s the point of doing a pre-nuptial health check? Just get your marriage certificate now!

Lucien’s dangerous, of course, but not the kind of danger I crawled out from. “I can’t love him. He forced me into a marriage." Isolde chuckles, “I’ve heard of contract marriages that've worked out.” "Besides,” Mireya raises her cup to me with a smirk, “who said anything about love?”

"Convenient, forgetting the one thing that matters." "It took my wolf too. I've never been able to shift, not once. Does that sound convenient to you?" I was shaking and couldn't stop. "I didn't know this arrangement until I read it in my dead father's letter. You think I wouldn't remember being promised to him if I wanted to?" Something in his face shifted. Not softer. Just less certain. "You really don't know," he said. "Any of it." "Know what? Tell me." He blew out a breath. "Whitemane and Madfang packs were allies once. The two biggest in the territory. Your father and Damon's made the arranged marriage for you to each other to make the bond unbreakable. They believed you two were fated.
