Melissa's father, Leonardo, stood in his study, surrounded by eleven other men, including Marco. The air was thick with tension as they finalized the arrangement.
"In two weeks' time, the marriage will take place," Leonardo said, his voice firm.
Marco nodded, his eyes scanning the room before returning to Leonardo.
Just then, the door opened, and Melissa entered, looking puzzled. "Father, you requested my presence?"
Leonardo's expression turned stern. "Melissa, come in. We have something important to discuss."
As Melissa approached, her eyes locked onto Marco, and her heart skipped a beat. She remembered the night they met at the club, the way he'd touched her, and the spark that had ignited between them.
"You are getting married in two weeks time." he demonstrated to Marco.
Melissa's mind reeled as she realized the man she'd stumbled upon in the night club was now standing in her father's study, about to become her husband.
