he asked, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Uncle Matteo began reading. “According to clause number seventeen of your marriage contract signed five years ago, in the event of infidelity, the offending party shall forfeit forty percent of their assets to the wronged party as compensation for breach of marital fidelity.” The room fell into silence. Dead silence. “Interesting,” Daniel said, chuckling. Nobody but my parents, Uncle Matteo, and I knew about this. Kane blinked. Once. Twice. “What!” “You signed it,” Uncle Matteo said, passing the papers to him.

The same hand that had signed my permission slips and written 'I love you' in the margins of my childhood notebooks. "THE SACRAMENT OF UNIFICATION." My eyes scanned the archaic language, tripping over terms like primogeniture and dowry. And then, I saw the word that turned my blood to slush. "Matrimonium." "Marriage?" I whispered, the word feeling like a jagged stone in my mouth. "This... this says that in exchange for the Moretti protection and a ten-million-dollar 'gift,' the firstborn female of the Vance line is betrothed to the heir of the Moretti estate."

Allysa Chloe Hernandez After three months. Time passed quickly. Three months have already passed. It seems like I've been really stubborn with my parents for the upcoming engagement party, but I didn't know that Dave Arkiel and I would actually make it. I tried many ways to prevent the engagement party from happening but in the end I still couldn't do anything. It even got to the point that I ran away from our own home so that the discussed marriage wouldn't go through, but in the end nothing happened. My Mom and Dad are right, I can't take care of myself yet. I can't do anything without them by my side.

Our family clapped and cheered. The rings were brought forth forward. She placed mine first. I placed hers. "They are real diamonds." I whispered. She smiled. They were a four piece set. "So…anyone against this?" The minister asked not really expecting someone. I glance over at Alex. He shrugs. "Not me." Aria laughs. "Well with the power invested in me by the state,I pronounce you…wait,you are already husband and wife so…whatever you may now…" I did not wait for him to finish. My arms wrapped around Aria's waist. I pulled her closer to me. My lips met with her. The kiss was soft at first till I deepened it.

She is simply perfection and is ours for all eternity. “We are gathered here today, in the presence of The Supernatural Council, Hunter’s organisation, Selene and Lycaon as well as friends and family. To bear witness to the union of these three mates. Alpha Theo, Alpha Fenrir, and Luna Mia Williams in the bond of holy matrimony. If there is anyone who knows a reason why this marriage shouldn’t take place, then speak now or forever hold your peace.” We look around and there is silence. I smile and I take a breath. Thank the Goddess for that. We don’t need any surprises.

"Sir, I'll do anything for you except for the one restriction in our marriage contract. I will get used to calling you 'Honey." Jack and Kate looked at each other, and for a long time, Emily fell asleep. Jack was the second son of Mr. Mattew. Mr. Mattew Mattew's three sons were billionaires, but they were not married. Mr. Mattew has urged his three sons to marry soon so they can give him grandchildren. However, his three sons chose not to get married because they wanted to focus on their careers and businesses. Therefore, the old Mr. Mattew gave conditions for his three sons to take Mr. Mattew's inheritance. The condition given by Mr. Mattew is that during this one year, his three sons must

They weren’t illusions. And yet here I was, trapped in the role of an outsider, watching him bind himself to another woman. The priest began to speak, his voice resonant, commanding. “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Zane Blackwood and Sera Voss in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred covenant, a bond not to be entered into lightly, but reverently, in the fear of God and in the joy of love. Today, these two stand before us to pledge their lives to each other…”

I ignored his quiet laughter as I looked away and kept my eyes on the priest. The priest cleared his throat politely, forcing Alexander to face forward as well. The church fell completely silent. The priest smiled warmly at the guests before turning to us. “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Alexander Thorne and Elara White in holy matrimony.” Holy matrimony. The words sounded ridiculous in my head considering how this entire thing started. Was there even anything holy about this? I chanced a look at the guests and my eyes immediately connected with a glaring David. I turned away at once, my stomach twisting.

As Anastasia drove back home to Harry, she had no idea of the celebration Matthew was having. Matthew took out a bottle of champagne and walked over to his dining. Matthew concluded that Anastasia being pregnant meant all his problems with the company were over. A quarterly board meeting was coming up in a few months, and he knew he would be smiling at the end of the meeting. He couldn't wait to tell all the board members, including his grandfather, that his uncle's marriage was a sham. Matthew couldn't wait to see the look on his uncle's face when he told all of them that Anastasia was pregnant for him. He had not planned to get her pregnant. That was just a bonus for him. The picture of An

She looked up at him and his gaze told her that he wouldn't entertain any nonfeasance. The priest began his lecture but she could barely hear him over the erratic beating of her heart. Mateo's hands tightened around hers as the priest spoke about love, commitments and hardship that will test them. April couldn't help but feel like a fraud for nodding along, feigning interest. "We are gathered here to celebrate the holy matrimony of this couple." The priest began. "If anyone is against this union, you may speak now." Deep down, April prayed that Mateo had a crazy obsessed ex that'd barge in and stop the wedding but to her disappointment, no one spoke so the priest continued. "Proceed with the
