"No I don't agree to this marriage never I am not something you can trade"Ophelia screamed at her father.

"phelia please understand"Walter begged.

"I have told you I won't marry Diego Never"

Walter looked at his daughter he wanted the best for her but here was he forcing her to accept doom

"yes my king"they said in unison and bowed their heads. Walter walked on thinking about what had just happened "she must marry him to save fort she must.
