Chapter 87

This is the story of Angel and three handsome lords. Angel is as brave as Emma. She runs away to avoid the marriage her father has arranged for her and asks for help from her best friend, Alekos.

Looking over my shoulder for the hundredth time in the last half an hour, ensuring no one is following me, I walk fast on the crowded street

Attempting not to make eye contact with anyone, not wanting to be noticed. Being the daughter of one of the most powerful Dukes in Veross City makes me easily recognizable. It is not like I want to run away from home, but what else am I supposed to do when my father wants me to marry Carlos de la Torre?

Carlos, who is another Duke, is not only twenty-five years older than me-making him around the same age as my father-but he has known me since I was a child.

He is still free to do what he pleases because more than half the city's police force and judges are controlled by the Dukes. The Lords control the other half

About three months ago, my father invited Carlos over to dinner. Little did I know that night I would become his fiancée. When a ring was forced on my finger, I was too stunned to say anything. And then he tried to kiss me, and it took every ounce of my control not to slap him

After Carlos left, I asked my father, even begged him not to force me to marry a man I did not love, but my words were meaningless

my life would be if I were to become Carlos' wife. It would be a miracle if I made it past our first wedding anniversary. And the idea of having to sleep with him
