She look at herself infront of a full length mirror. Saniya didn't know wedding gowns could be that frightening to wear. The floral arrangements was fully emphasized with a pinch of glitters and diamonds around. If this was a normal day, She would definitely be happy.

The whole clan was waiting for this arrangement. Sadly she's a victim of a very historical family. Arrange marriage was a very normal thing but in today's generation, She bet that it's not.

"Miss Saniya, Your sister is here to see you." Her assistant announce. Not far minute when someone enter at the door right behind.

"Saniya.. You look very amazing in that dress!" Joy and a mix of sadness was on her face.

Saniya silently agreed. The gown suits her that's for sure. But this dress deserves to be worn in a very much special occasion, Not this type of arrangement.

"Saniya.. If you want to back out-" She immediately cut her older sister's word.

"I'm not backing out. Besides, this is for the sake of the clan and the safety of our assets." Izumi let a sad smile at her.

Saniya knew her big sister felt bad for her. She's the youngest of the family and the only one left to be arranged to some random stranger. She don't want this. Even the groom don't want this. No one does.

Her sister is also arrange to an older man. They were a six year gap in between them and five years married already. The first time Izumi went to live with him, It was hellish. She would come by with scratch, bruises, and wounds all over her body. Saniya definitely remember what her father would say,

'Get use to it. You don't want to put shame in this family, Do you?'

The most stupidest thing she've ever heard from a father who threw out his own flesh and blood for power. Now here she is. The last one on the list of Kwon Family.

"Miss Saniya, we need to leave. The ceremony is about to start." Another organizer announced as she touches something from her automated ear plug.

Izumi help her settle away. The event is collided by two of the most powerful family in Korea, The Park's and Kwon's. Known for having the greatest gratitude in the industry and Two of the most leading company for shipping sites abroad.

"Saniya, I'll apologize in behalf of our father." She heard Izumi said as they stride the hallway through the white Mercedes Benz.

"Izumi, You don't need to pity me. I can handle myself very well." She've been to situations rigid than this. "Besides annulment is a usual thing. I can use that after a few years."

Saniya is not like Izumi. She have her own principles, have her belief for independency of a woman, and have her own perspective that no one can be easily defeated.

"Saniya, You know what our father can do. You can't just make decisions like that. Look at me. I've been stuck in a despicable relationship for years!" Her face dull at her sudden blowup.

"We seriously going to talk about that on my wedding day?" Izumi went silent for a minute and avoid her gaze. Saniya glared and step inside the car where her mother was waiting.

Her eyes roam around Saniya that look very stunning in her simple dress and a thirty karat diamond tiara on her head.

"Saniya, You look gorgeous sweetie." She let a fake smile. "Thanks, Mom."

The driver went to the front seat with her assistant at the right corner. "Silver, We need to be at the church before twelve. We really need to get there fast." Saniya ordered.

"Yes, Miss." Her assistant ask the driver to make his job faster.

Her mother look confused. "What's with the hurry, Saniya?" She quickly shove her head.

"I don't want to be late, Mother." Then she diverted her sight to the window. "If you say so, Darling."

She wanted to glare and remain stoic at the moment. Like a person who doesn't care about what would happen after this. Silver did some research about her 'groom' before marriage. She actually never met him in person but Silver remind her what kind of Bachelor he is.

A very famous and A lady-killer. The usual definition of man this days. What does she expect? Chase Park recently own a share in his father's company. He's now a wealthy substantial man himself. No doubt that every woman in the corner is hitting after him.

Medias are all around him wherever he goes. His life depend to the netizens like he is somewhat an actor and a hearthrob but no. He's just this intelligent business man from Park Shipping Industry but have lots of ozing appeal to offer.

Saniya can't imagine what would be his fans reaction about this. They only had a private gathering. Only the closest friends and family are invited other than that It is completely disclose for the outsiders.

IT wasn't that long when they arrive the church. The place were secured with a bunch of bodyguards roaming so no one could tract the ceremony.

"Let me help you with that." Her mother and Izumi helped to get her out of the car with a weight of almost twenty kilos. It's heavier for a little body that she have.

"Thanks." They were busy fixing the raffle parts of her dress as she walk to the entrance door. "Miss Saniya?" She grab the bouquet from Silver.

"Saniya.." She heard her mom's voice. Her eyes were keeping tear inside but instead of getting along with her, She keep a distant face.

"Sweety. I'm very sorry if i didn't have enough power to convince your father to stop this crazy illusions of him. But the company badly need you right now. Your father wanted to grant the Park's contract and you know how dedicated he is with his job. I hope you understand.."

The word process in her mind little by little. She avoided her eyes and look at the closed double door instead.

"Yeah, I understand."

They are wrong. Completely wrong. They didn't give her some options to solve everything. They just stick to the decision this family hold for how many decades and now she will be trap to loveless one. Like what each person of the family had.

The church bell rang as a sign for the continuation of the ceremony. The bride part. As the door slowly opens, Her grip at the bouquet tighten. The designs are her personal choices. There is no participation from the other part. Even the grooms shadow weren't seen at the whole four month process and she sees that as an achievement of her own.

The slow music made her gulp. It was her signal to walk to this long red carpet. She saw her father came to escort her to the altar. "Saniya, you look good." The only comment he had.

She let a faint smile and held his arms. Saniya's eye were stick on the ground because everytime she sneak for the guests, They were judging eyes and she doesn't want to have that feel today.

They reach the altar silently and when she raise her head, A tall lean man stood up right infront of her. His eyes cringe and was having a clear sight. Maybe because the veil was blocking her face for him.

"Mr. Kwon." Saniya look at the old man and woman who stood beside her groom. "Mr. and Mrs. Park." Her daddy greets in all smile.

She was right. It was his parents. They made a little greetings to each other. Saniya tried glancing at her groom once more but he was staring coldly at her. He scan from her rose gold hair down to the end of the white gown.

"Saniya." Her father lean over her side. "You should be good. Don't you ever disappoint me." It was almost a whisper that only the two of them could hear.

"Yes, Dad. I will." His face turn into a smile. He kiss her head and hand her to the groom who looks impatient at the time.

"Take care of my daughter, Chase." Chase bowed a little for respect before taking Saniya to the altar.

Silver was right. Her groom contains a very good looking complexion. He is tall. Maybe standing over six foot. His dark black eyes is round and deep. His nose stood tall and proud. His lips was thin pink and plump. She met handsome guys before but Chanse suppress a different atmosphere. A type where he could easily catch any attention from people because his godly features.

"Staring is rude." Saniya was surprise with his voice. It was very deep and hoarse.

She cleared her throat and decided to behave herself until the end of the ceremony. Her eyes was trying it's best to focus infront of the priest who was doing the blessing for the couple. but everytime his skin touches hers there was this electrifying motion he gave to her.

As much as she wanted to avoid it, She need to stick to the plan and that is to be a woman who shouldn't just be emotionally close to him.. She should be physically involve with him either.

Fck. Should i really have to do that?!

"You may now.. Kiss the bride." The priest announce. She was too occupied of many things she wasn't aware that the ceremony ended.

  Chase held her veil up until her sight was very much clear to his eye.

"Why can't you look at me now?" Saniya startled at his voice. Why does his voice have to sound so intense? His finger nip her chin and lift her face to him.

"Eyes up here, Wife. I don't like you sharing attentions." She frown at what he said. Did he just mention about the floor?

"Can you just do what you have to do?" She let her voice to be boring. His face turn colder from that.

Saniya was astound when he went near to grab her for a kiss. Her eyes widen in daze. He was trying his best to invade her mouth because it was strongly shut. He force her to open it and when it did, Chase took all the time to taste every inch of her.

"Glad to welcome you as my wife, Saniya."
