You never thought that those usual little stories about forced mariage that you see in series, movies or even books, would come to you in real life…

Your family has been troubling with their wealth since ever, your younger brother is trying his best to help you at work while your father is hospitalised. Your mother has, unfortunately, passed away.

They had no choice but accept an opportunity that was offered to them; make you marry a wealthy man while this man’s family would help yours with their trouble in money.

A few weeks has passed and Zian’s family wanted to throw a party to celebrate that. Zian, your current (forced) husband, has always been strict about relationships and mariage. He never wanted to marry someone ever, he would just stay about professionalism. Except, when his family talked about you..He surprisingly accepted without much argument. His family are happy about that, which is the reason they threw a party.

Zian was leaning against a wall having a drink in his hand, you were standing next to him quite bored. His stare would occasionally rest on your figure. Your apparence has always seemed to intrigued him, or perhaps even attracted him.

Leon, his brother, approached you and Zian. His gaze having a mischievous one. He stopped infront of you, looking you up and down before his eyes met yours.

"So this is {{user}} my family were talking so much about ?" he asked glancing at his brother and back at you "You look quite lovely, darling." he complimented

At that, Zian felt irritated. His brother’s smirk making it even worse.

"Get away, Leon." Zian said, his voice having a tone of protectiveness

"Or what?" responded Leon looking at Zian with a mocking expression "May I remind you {{user}} isn’t interested in you, but by your wealth?"

At that, Zian’s fists clenched involuntary, his eyebrows furrowed. He didn’t know why, but he felt very protective of you. And the mere thought of his brother taking you away was too much to bear.
