His eye was scanning the room, but he ignores it as his eye finally met mine after a surprising look at my room. "I was force here to bring you for breakfast," he said nicely, but what does he mean he got forced here.

"I would be down in a minute" I smiled, but he didn't even move, and he wasn't leaving my room. "I said I would be there very soon," I repeated. 

"I heard you the first time, but he insists I bring you down myself," he said with no emotion this time.

"Oh!! Okay, then let go" I lead him to the door, and we kept walking to infinite because I still haven't found any trace of Dinning room. 

He wasn't saying a word, so I decide not to say anything even though I want to say something.

Finally, we arrive at the dining room, and it was huge. I relished the beauty of the dinner table when my eye met the older man, and my smile vanished. "Fool", I muttered, and I roll my eye and walk to the table.

The maid pulls a chair for me to sit, and my meal got served. 

The hot dude was sitting right beside me, and I was about to lose it when he gave me a friendly smile.

The meal was tasty, and the chef needs to get complimented for it. 

After the meal we had dessert and it surprising it was just me, the old fool and my crush. The old fool finally breaks the awkward silence in the dining room.

"Young lady, I hope you are feeling comfortable in the house already?" he smiled at me, and I return a frown.

"Yeah, only if you haven't kidnap me from my parent, I roll my eye, but surprisingly he ignores my remark.

"Your wedding is taking place next week; I am giving you two just this week to enjoy your life of been a youth, and by next week I am proclaiming you two husband and wife," he said, and I was baffled.

We are just three here, and that means I am getting married to...... omg. "I am getting married to you" I face him, but he shrugs.

"Who does arrange marriage in this era?" that was his reply, and my smile vanished.

"Dad, you know I still want to go to school and make it in life and not just depend on your riches," he faces his Dad.

He is right, after marriage, you have to stay with your husband and other things. "You both are going to school, and I already registered both of you in the same school."He smiled.

"What about my friends?" I shouted.

"Oh, you aren't ever going to have anything to do with them," He replied nicely.

"Are you being serious? "My eyes broadened.

"There is no point seeing them, especially that guy that was all over you at the party," he warned, and I know he is talking about Jasper.

"And surprisingly, you don't know me, I am going to see my friends, and no one is stopping me. "I stood up and walked away angrily.

"Hey, young lady," his voice called, and I turned.

"You should be lucky I made you marry my son. I could have possibly made you my slave or even my s*x mate," he said, and my eye widened.

"Do you realise I am just sixteen?" I ask.

"Yeah, I know that why you would be my son bride and f**k mate," he emphasis on his word.

"I need to call my Dad. "I turn to leave, but he stops me again.

"That won't be necessary because you won't ever see them again, too" he clapped his hands together, and he stood up and walked in my direction.

"You will have the opportunity at your wedding, and after that, it over," he said.

"But dad, why can't we wait till we get matured enough? I am just Seventeen," he finally said something after a while.

"I told you I know what I am doing, and don't even remind me you are Seventeen," he scolded, and the guy shut up.

"I am not going to shut up just like him, and I don't plan on getting married to someone I don't even love. "I rolled my eyes.

"I am not concerned about "Love' just know you are getting married in two weeks, and you are allowed to resume school after that on a condition you are both going to the same school, and I can leave the house for you," he walks off but stops and turn.

"And you are also making babies," he smirks before walking away. I don't know why I felt somehow after he mentions babies.

I am Sixteen, for crying out loud!!!. This man must be an absolute beast I don't even know.

"Just so you know, I don't like you," the guy yelled out and walked away.

What wrong with him? Do I look like someone interested in the marriage too?

I scoffed and walked back to my room; I guess I understand this building minutes by minutes.

I slam my room door loudly, making sure that old fool hear.

"What can I do in two weeks to make this wedding not happen? "I muttered.

You need a plan, Martha!!!

There is no way I would agree to a date with that man.
