About two years ago my father tried to force me into an arranged marriage. To a prince.
He was only a few months younger than me and pretty cute. There was one major fatal flaw though...
He's like my little brother. He's a little taller than me, but I can't imagine having feelings for him, much less marry him. When he ran away to the neighboring city, I wasn't surprised and didn't stop him. Mason would text me every now and then to tell me that he was okay. His dad was really worried about him, and eventually, I had to ask Mason to come home. His family was hurting.
He came home and apologized to his dad about the way he acted. His father apologized to him for forcing him into a relationship with me. Mason tried to apologize to me, saying he doesn't have those feelings towards me. All I could do was laugh, Mason is so friend zoned he's become family. Wait, I didn't mean it like that. We aren't married. And never will be.
He continued to announce that he's moving in with his friend in the city, inviting me to come along.
When he asked me and I said yes, I wasn't expecting his 'friend' to be the multimillionaire CEO Sigmund Vanderbilt.
I wasn't expecting him to be an immortal dragon with power over the gods of chaos and peace, either.
