ENCHANTMENT: Love is not Real, Power is.

Sophia’s life wasn’t perfect but it was at least going her way until fate decided otherwise. Stuck in a loveless marriage but still devoting herself to her husband, who treats her like trash, and sons, who adore her, she however, finds herself betrayed by the monster of a husband she has. He was certain she couldn’t live without him as she had built her life around him, and he was more than ready to put her through a new type of hell she didn’t know existed. Except this time, she was no longer the woman he met and lived with for five years. Would he wait for her to become the groveling ex just for him to prove his superiority or would she turn him into that ex? *************************************************** “It’s you I love!!” “But you are going to be his wife for a fucking year, Soph!!!” “It’s just 365 days, my love and after which, I’ll be out and back into your arms again. We’d get married just like we’ve always planned.” “Married? When I know another man is going to be sleeping with you for a whole year.” “Never! It’s an arranged marriage and I don’t have a choice but one thing I can assure you about is the fact that there would be no sexing or even sharing of a room.” “Are you sure?” “Absolutely.” **************************************************** “I don’t know if the terms of this contract was properly explained to you but…” “Being your wife for a year and going our separate ways afterwards.” “After you’ve given birth to my baby, of course?” “What?” “That’s the whole essence of this waste of my time. My parents want a grandchild and that’s what you’re here for… WIFE!”

CHAPTER FIFTY TWO

WRITER'S POV

Back in Beijing, Marcus was getting ready to take a drive to Emma's apartment. This, he initially, saw as a shitty idea but eventually he found himself giving in to the desire to actually see her. He felt a little sense of discomfort knowing how drunk she was and considering the events of the previous night. He was scared about loosing her closeness as he, somehow suspected that she would want to pull away or maintain some form of distance. And this was why he decided to stroke her self esteem, preventing it from crashing completely to the ground. She was a beautiful, carefree, intelligent, cheerful and exceptional woman, and breaking her heart this way wasn't what he had hoped for. He didn't even plan to be proposed to by a drunk Emma, either.
