Ariana looks at her dad for the fifth time as he reasons with her to get married to her arch nemesis, ALARICK STONE.
"C'mon dad are we still discussing this topic? I told you there's no fucking way I'll get married to that hoodlum". Why is it so hard for dad to understand that Alarick was my late sisters fiance. Ariana thought to herself.
"Dad, I think you may have forgotten the man you want to get me married to is the fiance of my late sister. Besides he hates my shadow". Ariana frowns in annoyance.
Getting married was a big deal for Ariana. Everyone deserved to get married to thier true love not some arrongant cold idiot , she has always hated Alarick from childhood. It wasn't the marriage that irked her the most but the fact that she was still picking up from Ariella her twin sisters left overs even on her death.
As Ariana opens her mouth to protest her father cuts her short with his last Statement, "Getting married to Alarick is not a choice I wasn't asking o you I was telling you" She looks at the contract her father places in her front. It stated that the first Daughter which was supposed to be Ariella should be married to the first son of Mr Deloroyo , in this wonderful situation where the first daughter was dead there was only one possible replacement, Her.
"Are you kidding me dad? You already have tons of money why this? Are you using me as a collateral for your partnership?" It wasn't news to her that her parents never cared about her feelings but this was too much.
"You see Mr Deloroyo is my best friend and I want to make our relationship stronger with this. This decision was made even before you were born.
"Does any of this sound sane to you? Can't you understand how unreasonable this is?" She walks out of her father's study.
She walks out of the study and runs to her room, she angrily pushes all the contents on her dressing mirror away "I don't deserve this" she cries out loudly. It wasn't as though she lived in the Shadows of Ariella, she was just tired of picking up things after her sister and now even in death the same was happening.
She balls her fists as her thoughts diverted to Alarick. They couldn't stand each stand each other even for a few seconds, how the hell were they supposed to spend a lifetime together.

A few blocks away a fuming Alarick was trying to explain to his father the disadvantages of having a spoilt pompous brat as a spouse. The old man was quite aware that he was still mourning the loss of his best friend and fiance.
Ariana was a horrible pain in the ass she was such a talkative, she could drive any man insane with her noise they'd spent thier entire childhood insulting each other. He continues pacing around his office then his father plays his last card "son if you don't marry that young lady.." he points at the entire office "..all of this would go to charity" Alarick rakes his hair with his hands "she isn't my type!" His father walks to him and places his hands on his shoulder, " spoilt or not you will marry her because I have told you to do so." As soon as he completes his last Statement he leaves the office leaving Alarick stunned at his father's decision.
If getting married was the only way he couldn't get his hard earned inheritance nothing matters anymore.
