The Marriage Pact Book Novels & Stories

He said, and they settled back on their seats while Christian walk in and settled on the black leather couch behind the client and Mishka was a little annoyed by his intrusion everywhere. “Oh, please don’t mind me,” Christian said as he picked Scarlett’s latest novel ‘The Antagonist Of My life’ from the centre table with his air pods on and Mishka’s heart picked race. “Never mind, How can I help you?” Mishka averted her gaze from Christian and she opened the file the man forwarded in her direction. “I want you to prepare a contract marriage agreement for me,” The man said and Mishka’s dark brown eyes snapped back to him while Christian smiled flipping the page of the book, completely engross

“I can give you the east-coast land. On one condition.” “Register our marriage.” I blinked. “Does that mean our previous contract doesn’t count anymore?” He brushed his fingertips across my lips. “We are a de facto married couple. What’s mine is yours.” The small sting on my lip made me lick it without thinking. His eyes darkened instantly. I thought for a moment and shook my head. “I only want the land.” Money in my pocket belonged to me. Money locked inside a marriage did not. Especially not in a bizarre novel world like this one.

MILLIE’S POV My hands were shaking so hard I thought the paper would tear. Every word on the marriage deed felt like a brand on my skin. This wasn't a standard marriage contract; it was a covenant of protection, written by a woman who knew the world was dangerous and a father—Braham’s father—who didn't trust the man his fellow wolf’s daughter had chosen.

I said as I pushed the chair backward and stood up. “I didn't mean it that way. You know what I mean. So please have your seat and tell me if you are accepting the deal or not?” I thought to myself that this wasn't the time to let my pride get the best of me, I needed this partnership and I would do anything for it. I calmed myself down and sat back down on the seat opposite him. “It's a deal!” I said in a low voice without any form of enthusiasm. “Alright then. Let me walk you through the rules of this marriage. I do not want kids, so if you get pregnant the partnership will be canceled,” he said as he tossed the documents to me.

"Without a word. Without an explanation. Do you have any idea what that did to me? To us?" Her eyes didn't budge. "There was no 'us,' Kai. There never was." The words hit me like a perfectly placed slap, but I wasn't backing down. "You expect me to believe that? After everything we shared, everything we- "Don't romanticize it," she cut in, her razor-sharp voice slicing into my thoughts. "Our marriage was a contract. Nothing more." I felt a cold shiver run down my spine, and I straightened in my chair. "A contract?"

“ Please read this meticulously and tell me if you have any problems with it. I nodded and mouthed a ‘thank you’ as I read through it. My face twisting to a frown as I read through it by the time I looked up, Charles was already gone and it was now Kade in the room— perfect! I could rant. “ What do you mean by I have zero right to cheat but you have rights to have multiple partners?” “ Because I don't want my wife touching other men,” “ But you think I want my husband touching other women?” “ Well you weren't going to let me touch you were you?” He asked and heat climbed up my face. I knew what he meant by touch and I wasn't ready for it. Not with him.

“ Close to fifty trillion dollars. The whole rules about marriage are stated clearly. If you have any doubt about it then I will give you some days to think about it ” He stood up and headed towards the door when Alexa spoke up. “Is It not a contract marriage? I accept. ” “Ms. Parker, I hope you have given thorough thoughts to your answer. Once you sign it, you officially become the Young lady of The Hudston's family. ” Alexa coughed when she heard the title he said. “Young Miss of the Hudston's?” She repeated and trembled on her feet. She recalled so many historical facts on the Hudston's and their harsh way of picking their wives.

THE WORD marriage was a big word for me. If ever you’ll enter into the sacrament of marriage, you must be ready for the lifetime commitment because marriage wasn’t just a stage of life where you wanted to marry someone at first then if you get tired, you’ll leave him or her. In the stage of marriage, there was no room for playing. People weren’t playing at this stage. Before two people enter this stage, you two must be very sure that you love each other and that both are willing to enter into a lifetime commitment. Being married to someone was the starting point where you will be building a family with your partner.

I questioned, wanting his opinion. “Can’t you live not caring about your grandma’s fortune taking away from her?” he bit back, consuming the coffee. And I smile, showing my teeth. “Fair play. We don’t have any other way than this. What an ill fate!” I commented, and he nodded in agreement. “I had four bargains for this marriage,” I began. “One, I can do what I want as long as it doesn’t ruin our families.” “Fair, so am I,” he said, revealing his drop-gorgeous smile. The pleasures in his countenance, pondering for a second. “That’s a new one, huh.”

I sat down at my desk and stared at the contract still spread across it. My signature next to Marcus's, Brandon's, Derek's, James's. Five men who'd thought they were so clever, so above the rules, so capable of gaming a system that had existed for centuries. And maybe we had been clever. Maybe we had proven that marriage could be reduced to strategy and timing and saying the right things at the right moments.
