Belonging To The Darkness

*Arranged marriage*Enemies to lovers*Obsessed anti-Hero* “I fucking hate you!” She breathed out the words, slowly and steadily, into his face. Her garlic smelling breath hitting him right in the face, making his face twitch and break posture. “You,” he turned his head away to breathe away from her garlic scented bread, only for her to open her mouth and blow into his direction. “Fucking brat. Did your parents teach you nothing?“ “Pedophile!” She accused to his face. “Did your parents teach you to marry little girls?” Adrian scoffed. “it’s your father who is trying to marry you off. Take it up with him.” She tried to open her mouth, by the looks of it just blow her garlicky breath on him again. Adrian grabbed her jaw, squeezing her cheeks together, he made her shut her mouth. “Listen to me carefully, Brat,” he whispered, bringing his face closer to hers, “You better hope I don’t say yes to this proposal of your father. Because if I do, I will be shipping your ass off to a behaviour correction facility as the first thing.” Ignoring the sneer on her lips, Adrian patted her cheek forcefully, just for fun, before turning around and leaving her alone in the corner. “It’s on,” she vowed, “I’ll fucking set you on fire.” ***** Joyce O’Sullivan, 19 years old, a perfect age to get married and settled according to her family members, according to the church they went to, and according to the whole society that she did not give a damn about.

One more day - III

Walking into one of the most expensive and old jewelry stores was very intimidating. This particular one was around the time of Queen Elizabeth's crowning.

For support, Joyce held on to his arm with both of our hands. She was sure that the woman in her mother's Circle had never come here. It was an exclusive meant to cater to the needs of the ultra rich like her husband.

She almost smiled at remembering her mother. If she was here today, she was definitely going to boost around her group of friends.

Adrian stepped inside and crossed the counters, making her frown even more. They were not going to browse?

He walked into the room that had a sofa set with a table in front of it. There, she found four different rings.

All the rings for one more beautiful than the other. It was very difficult to just focus on one of them.

Adrian led her to the table and made her sit in front of them. "Choose one."

One? How was she supposed to choose just one?
