THE UNWANTED BRIDE

CHAPTER 1:FANTASY TURNS REALITY☑️

❄️ KIMBERLY MENDOZA ❄️

Every day of my twenty year old life, one would think that since I was born into wealth, my life would be all comfort, glam and a perfect body because all the spa treatment or I can afford a personal trainer or dietitian, but truth be told I was born plump and after the instance of bullying when I was in junior high, I decided to lock myself away in the comfort of my house and asked my dad to let me get home schooled. It is common that when am not working with my tutors I'm in my room reading my romance novels. It has always fascinated and enchanted me, how the characters exhibit such love, courage, passion and zeal to fight for the one they love.

As am seated on my bed, my mom enters and from the look of her face I can tell she's the bearer of some very important and life changing news. "Hi honey, I hope we can talk but if your busy I can come back later, " she said. I was debating whether I want to hear the news because I suddenly got a very weird feeling about this 'talk' we are supposed to have, but I decided it's better to know than remain in suspense something that has never been my specialty since I'm a very curios and impatient person.

"Since college your dad and I have been very close with the Rossi's, since Walker was a very good friend of ours. Our friendship goes far back and we would like to continue strengthening those ties and that's why...... ," she fell silent and I could see she was contemplating on how to break the piece of news to me. As I'm about to tell her to spit it out she finally drops the grenade, "We were hoping you would get married to their son, Alexander King Rossi.

Honestly, whenever I read novels regarding arranged marriages it never came to my mind that I would be a victim of one. I was so affected by news to the point where, the panic attacks that I thought I put behind me after counselling sessions regarding the bullying issues decided it was occasion worthy to resurface. The family doctor was summoned and after checking on me and giving me an injection to calm my nerves, he left right after I fell asleep.

It has been a week since we discussed the issue about my marriage. I still felt conflicted on whether I should agree or not even after I found out the real reason of my supposed marriage. Apparently my dad has a few months to live and his last wish is to see me married to a good man from a very upright and reputable family who understands and loves me unconditionally and who better to fit that shoe than the formidable Alexander Rossi?

Don't get me wrong it's not that my soon to be husband is ugly or a freak, he's actually the world's most eligible bachelor, handsome, sexy, biggest player, arrogant and every girl would kill to be in my spot but I really don't like players or arrogant people, I also doubt he would want some plump and average girl to be his wife. I have seen him in the tabloids and he's always seen with famous, sexy, beautiful arm candies from musicians, models to heiresses of influential families.

I had he already hates and detests me being his wife because I'm a nerd, plump, average and to add on that he's being forced to marry me and leave his player ways. He considers this union a joke and a means his parents are using as punishment to him because of the countless scandals he has been involved with which caused his dad a lot with the bad press affecting his reputation. I also heard that upon receiving the news that he was to get married, he became very angry but after finding out it was me he was going to bound to for eternity and seeing my pics, he was raging mad and got so drunk he was unconscious two consecutive days.

Gossip among the servants of both houses always finds it's way around and most of the time, the servants don't even I'm around to hear everything till it's too late. It's not really a huge deal because whom would I tell being locked up in my room all day? Don't worry it's my choice to remain in seclusion. This way nobody can hurt my feelings.
