Zeynep's POV:
"You both are going to get married"
"In three days to be exact" my father adds.
I look over at Daniel and see he's just as shocked as I am. I guess he didn't know about this either.
I'm at a loss if words, still trying to wrap this around my head.
"Um mom, dad can I speak with you privately, please".
"Yeah, you guys too". Daniel motions to his parents.
My parents and I leave his office to talk outside wile Daniel talks to his.
"Why didn't you tell me I was part of your deal. I don't want to get married, not yet".
"I'm not asking for your permission Zeynep! You said you'd agree to whatever the deal was once you knew what it was so, there's the deal".
"No! You can't just decide my fate like you did years ago! I'm NOT going to marry Daniel. And to think I-. My mom gasps as I was cut off by the loud slap my father gave me across my face, I'm sure even the Romeo's heard it. And it hurt like a bitch.
"Susan leave. I need to talk to Zeynep, privately". he looks over to my mom with a serious look before she leaves me alone.
Wait, don't leave me alone with him.
He roughly grips my arm tightly making me wince at the pain and brings me close to him. "Listen Zeynep, you are going to do what I say when I say, you have no say in this you will marry Daniel for my own good.
"If I could have I would have forced you to marry him years back, I needed to partner up with Greg, but he wasn't going to agree with me that easily so I put you in the spot. It was simple, I'd get Greg's help with the company and make more money and in return his son would finally get married and stop bringing random whores inside his house only to then be led to problems".
"What if I say no the day of the wedding". I challenge
"Then I will make you go through literal hell if you do, but of course much worse than before".
The traumatic memories rush to my head as I remember his torture.
A lone tear escapes past my eye. "Fine you win, again".

Daniel's POV:
"What the hell, why didn't neither of you tell me about this. What makes you think I'm ready to get married".
I do want to get married. I always imagined it'd be with Zeynep, but not like this, not by force.
"Look son, Michael needed my help with the company and he offered you to marry Zeynep in return".
"And you agreed with him!"
We could hear Zeynep protest outside the office.
"I had to, we are tired of you coming home every night with one of your whores and getting me into your problem. Zeynep will-. He was cut off by the loud slap and I knew it was Zeynep who received it.
"As I was saying she will do you good, plus we don't know what she's been through considering what Michael is capable of doing to her".
"And what if she says no".
"I wouldn't think she'd risk making her father angry".
It made me mad to think about the things he would do or worse, like that harsh slap.
"Fine, I'll marry her".

Hii guys, um so I know I took like literally two months to update but I had so much going on those two months. I finished my sophomore year of high school, had my sweet sixteen even though it was supposed to happen for when I'd turn fifteen but COVID got in the way of that so a year later it happened. For those who have still been reading my book even if it's like three to five of you, I really appreciate it so much even though it's not a lot I still like that you all are enjoying my book (I hope 😂). The next chapter will be the wedding so things will start falling into place.
Please share the story with your friends and or family members it would also mean a lot to get the book some new readers.
