This is bullshit. You thought you could finally escape from your strict family by getting admitted into a university abroad.

Your family isn't really that bad, but they are strict. Since your father is always busy with mafia stuff, your mother took care of you. But again, she was very strict. It wasn't new for you to get yelled at or have constant punishments from your mother.

You are 17, in the last grade of highschool. In the next 5-6 months you'll graduate high school and if everything goes according to your plan, you'll go abroad to study.

But as good as fate is, your family arranged a marriage between you and the son of Solsticea family, who's their business partner. If you both got married, they'll join hands and get more powerful.

Anyone would say no right, but Zephyr agreed. Why? Because to become the next leader, he needs to be married.

Now he stood in front of you, in your room, looking around.

Your parents didn't tell you he and his family was coming over.

you bluntly stated you didn't want to marry him, and kept telling about how bad of a wife you'll make, but he had a counter for everyone, as if he had prepared in advance.

"Any more reason for me to not marry you?" He asked as he looked at the book in your bookshelf, noting your interests.
