Hyerin's POV

Our wedding was the social event of the year. No expense was spared, it was a fairy tale come to life. It seems like the marriage was a fairy tale, a fairy tale without the 'Happy ever after'.

We got married at a beautiful French Chateau, had every beautiful and sweet smelling flower imaginable, exquisite food and the ceremony was attended by glitterati from all over the world. My dress was handmade for me, from the finest silk and hand embroidered with crystals and pearls. The champagne flowed and mouthwatering food was passed around liberally. Each guest received an extravagant gift, courtesy of my new in-laws.

Who am I you ask? My name is Kim Hyerin, my family owns a major business conglomerate in South Korea. I am 22 and I have an older brother named Taehyung, who is 25 who is married to a distant cousin of ours Jennie.

I married a man named Jeon Jungkook. Jungkook is 24 years old and is the only son of another major Korean business owner. It is hard to say whose family is richer or more powerful, at our level who knows? Jungkook is very handsome and is a very good son to his parents, which is important since he is an only child. He had an older sister that died from Leukemia as a young teenager. He works a lot, which is common in our circle.

How did we get together? It is still a slight mystery to me who orchestrated what, but we met at a party at my brother's house last year. He was the perfect gentleman and asked me out to dinner that night. I was dazzled by his good looks and charisma, he isn't very talkative though and was a little hard to get to know.

On that first date night the paparazzi caught wind and the gossip chain started rolling immediately. As I look back I think he knew that that would happen and it propelled what was really not much of a relationship, into the spotlight. Both of our parents were alerted and started talking about a possible match between us. It all looked perfect on paper, we were both good looking, rich and had all the proper pedigrees for the other...everything except...love.

In hindsight, I wonder how I was so submissive and how I got steamrollered into marrying a man that doesn't love me? I didn't love him either...though I wanted to, I really wanted to. I want what Jennie and Tae have, I want true love. I want my spouse to be the person that sets my heart on fire and the one my soul yearns for. I was...am...physically attracted to Jungkook, he is a beautiful, sexy man.

He treats me with every consideration and care. I only have to glance at something to have it become mine and all our servants and employees know to give me every respect I am due...as his wife, but he doesn't love me. I have never been in love, but I have seen it...so no I know that he doesn't love me. He has never looked at me with passion or touched me with longing. He doesn't search for me in a crowded room or seem to miss me when I am not with him...and when we...have sex, it is just sex. He comes to me almost every night, it almost seems like it is a release for him after a long day at work...but not because he wants ME, it is just another role I play as his wife.

Jungkook's POV

Hyerin is a beautiful thing. She is probably the most perfect woman I had ever met and I knew that she would be a good wife for me, that she would fit into my world seamlessly. It was time for me to marry and the joining of our two families, through marriage would create the most powerful conglomerate in Korea.

I met her at her brother's home, but I went with the express purpose of meeting her. She was talked about by the men in our circle as a beautiful, poised, accomplished woman...but she also has a regal quality about her that I find so attractive. Plus, from what my investigators have been able to discover, she is probably a virgin. I knew she was the one for me that first night, she would be the one I would marry and have a family with to continue my family's dominance of Korea.

Everything went to plan, she has exquisite taste and our wedding had the perfect luxurious flare but with all the class that people like us are used to having...real class not just people that were showing off. At our reception, I stood next to her as she spoke in perfect fluent French to our European guests, my hand lightly touching her back to guide her through the crowd. I am already proud of her, she looks so beautiful today in her gown and the way she smiles and holds her body, the way she expresses herself with her slim hands gesturing as she talks...it all turns me on. I am thinking about tonight...our wedding night will be our first time together. I know it is old fashioned...but it just worked out that way.
