Alexander stood before her, his long hair hiding part of his face. He looked devilishly handsome and her heart contracted. "About last night..." Samantha blushed but was abruptly interrupted by Alexander. "Last night was a mistake." He said curtly. Samantha stared at him. She couldn't believe her ears. "I beg your pardon?" "Last night was a mistake. We shouldn't have done it." He repeated, his face expressionless. "So think nothing of it." Samantha's eyes filled with tears as the sting of his words hurt her. How could he say that? Was she just there to while away his time? Last night was perfect for her. It was the best and he ruined it. "Get out," She said bitterly. "I am sorry Sam but we shouldn't have done it." "Don't you dare call me that and get out, damn you!" She yelled. She didn't know she had much venom in her. She watched as Alex hesitated before leaving. "No! No! No!" She chanted. How could she be so stupid? She thought what they had was the beginning of a beautiful marriage but she was wrong. She was used as a one-night fling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Samantha Sinclair was aware of arranged marriages, knowing that her elder sister was into one. What she did not know was that it was going to be her fate as well. She was going to marry Alexander; the son of a business tycoon. He was a total stranger and they had never spoken a word to each other, yet she was going to marry him not for love or business but for the silly reason that their fathers were best of friends and wanted to keep the two families close. The marriage was going to be a disaster, they both knew it. Samantha did not know what to do with Liam; her high school sweetheart who believed she betrayed him and Alexander was worried about Scarlett, his model fiancee knowing how crazy she was. If they both went ahead with the wedding, will their vow count if they don't mean it or will it give them a chance to stay married and be with their partners??
