Arranged Marriage To A Mafia

Chapter Two

As she slowly opened her eyes, she couldn't believe what she was seeing. There, lying on her bed, was another version of herself. She blinked, thinking it was a dream, but the other one remained. Confusion and curiosity filled the room as they locked eyes, wondering how this could be happening.

Kayla's POV

"I'm so sorry for what I did." I apologized. I knew he'd figured it out.

"You need to apologize to your father, not me." Dr. Henry replied.

" Wait, how do you remember everything?" He questioned.

That was quite true. I mean I saw blood so I was supposed to lose my memory.

" Did you take your medicine?" He looked at me strangely.

"No..." I started to feel weird. Without speaking, he left my room and Nolan walked in.

" Look, I'm sorry I don't know why I drank that much." I spoke quickly when I noticed the rage in his eyes.

He sighed." Now I'm in trouble. But do you realize you have school today?"He changed the subject.

"How bad could it be? Dad's anger on me will be ten times worse than yours."

" Really, do you know what he did? He almost hit me with a dart." He lashed out.

If he almost hit him with a dart, then I don't know what he will do to me.

"I'm going to talk to him." I concluded, getting up from my bed straight to the door.

"Wait! what actually happened? I mean whose blood did you see?"

"I don't really remember...the only part I remember was me at the party." I slowly spoke realizing how strange it was.

Feeling confused and hurt, I mustered up the courage to approach my father. I poured my heart out, expecting him to address the mistake I made. But instead, he seemed disinterested, dismissing my concerns.

To my surprise, he began discussing my future, mentioning the idea of an arranged marriage. My heart sank as I realized that my father's priorities were far from what I had hoped for.

"It sounds interesting, but dad... I'm too young for this, I know you're doing this to get a good relationship with the most powerful mafia in the world. But I'm not in for it." I poured my thoughts out.

" Kayla!" He yelled out and gave out a huge sigh.

" I love you and... and whatever I do is for the best for you. Not to benefit me or the work I do. And to be honest with you, this is not a choice, it's a must." His deep voice struck silence in his office.

"It's not as simple as it seems, father, I can't be forced into something I'm not interested in. If you really loved me like you say, you would never do such a thing."

I yelled back with tears brimming in my eyes as I stormed out of his office.

I got ready for school and Nolan drove me there.

As I stormed through the school hallway, my anger radiating from every step, I caught sight of my friend, Laura by her locker.

Our eyes met, and she could instantly sense something was wrong. Without a word, she pulled me aside, offering a comforting presence amidst the chaos.

"What's wrong? Is it from the party? Do you know how long I searched for you?" Laura spoke.

"I'm sorry for explaining everything to your dad. Well it was because I'd freaked out. I didn't know where you were and had no choice than to do that."
