Edith Lancaster is in a pickle. For the past ten months her mother has entertained her with the notion of getting married. Smart, affluential, and wealthy, Mommy Lancaster wants nothing but the best for her daughter. And that includes the best fish from the sea. Little does she know that Eddie, as everyone calls her, just wants to enjoy life and has no wish to settle down yet. Not to mention Eddie already has a boyfriend. Too bad Mama gets what Mama wants. Just when Eddie thinks she has her mother is off her back the woman announces her so called "great" news... Edith Lancaster is getting married!
The half smile half sneer grew on my mother's face like a disgusting kind of mold. A falling feeling in my stomach made itself known. Something bad was about to happen. Uh-oh. She opened her mouth and spoke, "My daughter, Edith," I flinched at the sound of my name, and cowered slightly when a spotlight appeared on me as well, "Well... She's getting married!"

The Bridal Agreement
COMPLETED ✔️(Editing Soon) "Marry me." I nearly spill my latte on the nicest dress I own. "Are you out of your mind?! We just met... plus I don't even like your face!" "It doesn't have to be real." I set my latte down and look at him. "No woman wants a fake marriage Mr. Mardell. Be less of a dumbass and find yourself a nice girl who'll kiss your ass even when you're ghosts." "Look, don't flatter yourself" he goes leaning back in his seat. "You just happen to fit the description I gave the press and my family. And I don't like your face either." I copy his move and lean back against my seat. "I'd rather slam my tongue in a car door, sir." The words hit him. "Good day... and good luck finding a brainless girl to marry you." I grab my purse and head towards the door. "$20,000 a week" he blurts out. I halt and whirl around. "What?" "I'll give you $20,000 every week for a month..." He walks out from behind his desk. "... if you agree to do this with me." $20,000 every week for an 'I do'? Which happens to be fake too? $80,000 in a month to play dress up for one of the youngest and richest CEO's in the world? "So what do you say?" His silky voice swims through my thoughts. "You wanna get hitched for some money? You know your family needs it." He just had to play the poor family card. "So do we have a deal? Or I should go on and keep making you lose your jobs before you even start?" He had a smirk on his face. God, I hate him! But that money could help us a whole lot. I glare at him and extend a hand towards him. "Deal." ✄--------------------------------------------------------- No one ever realizes the implications of messing around with the famous 'Always and Forever' promise until they're cornered with no escape... except the one through their own hell.

You lost any right over them when you left me at the altar. Now they're just mine." I say, all sense leaving me. "Oh I got all rights over them, since the day my sperm made them up. And kitten, you're still my wife remember. This is not over." He says walking close to me. Way too close. Pulling me close by my waist, he rests his head on the crook of my neck, his lips brushing my skin ever so lightly as he speaks. "Quit running from me and come home.

Forced love
ARRANGED MARRIAGE "I will not marry anyone. I don't care if it's for alliance, because we both know we don't need it!" I hissed back. Our mafia was one of the most feared, if not the most. No one dared touch us, so why marry a man who cannot give us anything. Before I got to speak up again my father slapped me right across the face. I gasped and put a hand to my cheek. My mouth stayed shut and I sat down in silence. Neither my mother or my brother did or said anything. I wouldn't except them to, since they never did. "I am your father and you will show me respect!" He demanded and sat back down. My cheek ached and I knew it would leave a mark. One I would have to cover up later. "But father, if you just tell me why," I tried and he cut me off again by picking up a fork and throwing it in my direction. He missed by a few inches only. My mother stared blankly down at her plate, not wanting to show my father a reaction. "Do not question me Katherine. You're leaving tomorrow" He said at last. ----------- What happens when the stubborn and independent Katherine Lopez is forced into marriage? Was it all for alliance between two mafias like her father said? And how far will she go to break the arrangement before the wedding date? Will she kill to get what she wants? Read the story to find out;)مكتمِلة
You Before Him
Wealth. That's what my family came from. Generation after generation, my family's business expanded and grew throughout the world. And what else added to my family's wealth? Marriage. Which is where my story begins. Sitting across from my father, lips pursed, I processed the words that had passed through his lips. "I found a man worthy of your hand. His family comes from a long line of business men who have invested into stocks, and they own many hotels all over the world. He'll be flying in next week to formally meet you while his parents and I go over some things. If things go well, you'll be married within two months." I sighed as I glanced over to him, his face no longer held the bright and youthful looks that I was so familiar with from my childhood. Instead, his face had sunken in while a family of wrinkles adorned his face. He was still handsome at age fifty, but life had definitely taken a toll on him. "So, what I'm hearing is that I don't have a choice," I deadpanned, sinking deeper into the leather couch I was sat on. "You have a choice," he sighed, removing his glasses from his face and placing them onto his desk, "it's either the man I chose for you or Edward." At the mention of that name, I felt my face fall slightly as a sudden sense of fear traveled my body. I would never marry Edward, not after what he did. "I'll meet him," I said, looking at my dad, watching a small smile light up his face, "one question." "Go ahead and ask," he replied, taking a swig of his whiskey. "What's his name?" He sat back in his chair, watching me with an amused look on his face, "Christopher, Christopher Bang." And in that moment, my face grew red in embarrassment. Oh no.مكتمِلة

Unexpected | ✔️
[COMPLETED] "I have a proposal for you." I smiled, hoping he'd take it well. "I've learned that he's been doing super nice things for me, like inviting me places, asking to hang out, you know... Well, I figured he won't really realize what he's missing until it's gone." He got up and made his way across the room to my bed. He sat next to me, his legs dangling off the edge. "And where do I come into this?" I awkwardly avoided eye contact with him. "Well, I figured we both needed a little push in our love lives. Me with Drew and you with Jaz." I glanced at his face to see his reaction. All he did was roll his eyes, but he didn't deny his crush. "Well..." "Spit it out, Wilks." "We should fake date."
