Chapter 2

Dakota POV

I stared at my parents then my 'fiancé's' parents back and forth. I couldn't believe it.

"Why?" I managed to say.

"Well, I think it's the best for you dear" said my mother.

"The best for ME?! I am 17 years old for god sake!" I yelled.

To my amazement Chase spoke, calmly " I think this can work out"

I gaped at the man in front of me. So, he was fine with this. Sure, I would be happy to leave but...I had plans...I wanted to fall in love....that was all gone now...out the window....never to be seen again.

My thoughts were interrupted when my mother came down the stairs with my suitcase. Chase got up and took my hand. At all the places his hand touched my tingles shot up. I couldn't help but smile.

The smile faded. But, my suitcase. Why was Mum bringing it downstairs?

"Mum, where am I going?" I asked her.

"You're going to live with Chase now" my mom replied with a look that dared me to say something against it.

I decided not to argue. What good would it do anyway? I felt Chase squeeze my hand.

"Alright then..." I murmured.

At that moment Mr. Carlestos's phone rang. He left the room with a serious look on his face to attend the call. A few minutes later he came back and announced that they couldn't stay for dinner due to a business meeting and would be leaving right away.

I was pulled out of the house with Chase holding my suitcase. We came to two beautiful cars. A Porsche and a Mercedes. Chase led me to the Porsche while his parents walked hand in hand to the Mercedes.

I was amazed at his car, we were rich but I was never allowed to even touch my parent's cars.

I glanced up at Chase and saw he was smirking at nothing particular as he left my hand and strode to his side of the car. I gave an internal sigh. Why? This just had to happen to me of all people. An arranged marriage. What are we living in? 1800s? What if he decides he doesn't li-

My internal rambling was broken when I heard Chase speaking in a low growl on the phone, " No. I want the package sent by tomorrow. Do you understand? Dont give me that bullsh*t! It is extremely important. I am coming around to the office to see. No, you listen. I.Want.The.Package."

He pressed 'Off' on his phone and glanced at me.

"Sorry Dakota. Work..."

I was too stunned to speak. The soft Chase had slipped into small cracks and the cold, hard Chase had replaced him. It kind of scared me.

We both were silent, lost in our thoughts on the way to his home.
