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.

A bad feeling- I

The next day, Joyce woke up at sharp nine in the morning. It was Saturday and she had let Alfred have an entire day of which he would not have when he would be working with Adrian.

The man was appalled when she suggested that he take a leave, almost taking it in consideration as if she was considering firing him for the day. How he reached that logic with something she would not understand. All she had suggested for him was to take a day off. The way he linked it towards being fired was quite senseless.

The conversation went back and forth to why he did not need it and her suggesting that the workload had been a shit ton and he needed to take some time off. He had agreed to take a complete Sunday off, but he wanted a half working day for Saturday, which also included her going in. It seemed that Alfred had conveniently ignored the clue. She wanted to drop it again because She wanted Saturday off as well.
