EDITED

It was finally the day. Your wedding day. Due to tradition you were dressed at your family estate and then transported by litter , men carrying the small hut and transported you to your wedding. It was however a longer journey than you expected, you didn't dare look outside either as you feared doing so would bring bad luck.

Once arriving you were transported to a room to finish any preparations. You couldn't help but feel the place was oddly familiar but you just related that to nerves, believeing your body was trying to somehow find some comfort of this nerve-racking day.

"Is the queen here? She said she would come." You asked Ms Kim as she did your hair.

"Don't worry, she's definitely here." Ms Kim smiled.

"Good. I'm so excited. It's finally happening." You smiled. Your sisters and Ms Kim just looked at you happily.

"The last Park to get married." Jihu said. "You're all grown up." She started to tear up.

"I'll go get father." Hayun said, leaving you with a crying Jihu. She soon returned. You smiled looking over at him but it quickly faded.

"Why are you dressed like that?" You asked noticing your father's neatest court clothes.

"We're at the palace of course I'm dressed like this." He replied, not concerned.

"The palace?" You asked picking up on a key part of his sentence. He went quiet, very clearly not intending on revealing that.

"You asked for an arranged marriage-"

"You're marrying me to Seongnam?!" You were not happy at all, you can't believe they were all in on tricking you. It wasn't just the fact you really didn't want to marry Seongnam , but it also hurt that your family tricked you.

"Y/n." He sighed "I didn't have much choice."

"It could have been anyone but him. Anybody. And I would have been happy." You said getting up. Unknown to you though, the groom had no clue you were his bride. "I can't believe you lied to me."

"Well technically I didn't lie as he is wealthy, very handsome and tall." He said trying to defend himself. You just glared at him, not in the mood.

You walked out to start the ceremony. Although you father ruined the surprise he was not early enough for you to escape this. Due to the traditional clothing Seongnam would not see your face until later into the ceremony. You both went through with it and when the sheet was finally removed and your face was clear to him he looked at you shocked.

He had multiple reasons to be shocked. One, you were his bride. Two, you were his bride when you were meant to be marrying another guy. Three, your glare that shot right into him. It was very clear you were not happy nor aware of this arrangement. And he felt like all your anger was being directed straight to him.

The marriages went ahead though, the ceremony followed by a feast and celebrations. Every guest enjoying it whilst you and Seongnam sat in silence.

"Y/n-" he tried to speak to you quietly whilst everyone else seemed occupied.

"Not now." You silenced his attempt. He just looked at you as you sat there , you wouldn't even glance at him since the ceremony was finished. You were stuck by his side all day and despite putting on a face for others you wouldn't share any of that towards him.

After all the ceremonies were complete the two of you were left in your new room. This was so the marriage could be consummated. Seongnam kept a gaze on you but you didn't want to even look at him. After some time you just couldn't be in there anymore and got up to go.
