Only after we grabbed a taxi did I breathe a sigh of relief. My whole body was drenched in sweat, so I fanned my face with the wedding invitations.

Are you insane? Why the hell are you acting like this? Alpha Damien frowned at me.

I don’t know, I, uh....I can’t really think of what to say right now. I admitted.

Don’t tell me what you think, tell me the truth, Alpha Damien blurted out in anger.

Ah...what do I do...

Put in a difficult situation, I squeezed my eyes closed and increased the speed of my fanning.

How can I explain this? What excuse should I give?

After a lot of thought, I placed the wedding invitation on my lap and took a deep breath. Let’s just tell him what type of person Henry Johnson is. I’ll let him know how horrible a person he is and tell him I don’t want to invite him to the wedding.

Looking down at the invitation, I strengthened my resolve and nodded my head. Suddenly, I got an inkling that something was off. Why...am I only holding two invitations? I’m sure I had

    That’s how I wrapped up my story. None of it was a lie, I retold it exactly the way it had happened. Except for the fact that I excluded some parts. But the words I said were all the truth.

But you put your hands on me, and violently no less, I cannot forgive. I will definitely tell my brother about this.After the warning, he turned and left for his room. After overcoming that hurdle, I sighed in relief and sprawled on the ground. What did Henry Johnson want to talk to me about?I was anxious and couldn’t get rid of the irksome feeling.

  • Engaged To The Gay Billionaire, Mated To His Brother    1- I want you to marry me

    Lucy glanced at the clock on her bedroom wall and felt her heart skip a beat. It was already 7:30 pm, and she was supposed to meet her best friend Noah at the restaurant half an hour ago. Panic surged through her veins as she realized how late she was. With a burst of adrenaline, she sprang into action, determined to get ready and make it to the restaurant as quickly as possible.Without wasting a second, Lucy dashed into the tiny store room she converted into her closet space, scanning the rows of neatly organized clothes for the perfect outfit. She pulled out a sleek black dress and laid it on her bed, ready to slip into it later. Her mind was racing as she mentally planned out her steps, prioritizing speed and efficiency.Next, Lucy rushed into the bathroom, flicking on the lights and scanning her reflection in the mirror. Her shoulder-length brown hair was in a state of disarray, so she hastily grabbed a brush and quickly ran it through her tangles, attempting to tame the unruly l

    "Lucy, I want you to marry me."For a split second, Lucy's mind froze, unable to process what she had just heard. She blinked in disbelief, thinking she must have misheard him. Her voice trembled as she asked him to repeat the words, hoping against hope that she had misunderstood.Noah's expression softened, sensing her confusion. "I mean it, Lucy. I want to marry you."Lucy's mind raced, trying to reconcile what Noah had just said with her understanding of their relationship. Noah was her best friend, and he was gay. “What? Why?.” Stunted Lucy asked.Noah took a deep breath, his eyes filled with a mixture of vulnerability and determination. He knew he needed to explain his reasons to Lucy, to help her understand the complexity of his decision. He wanted her to know the depth of his emotions and the weight of his responsibilities."Lucy, I want to marry you because... because I'm the second son of Alpha Alfred," Noah began, his voice tinged with a hint of sadness. "My family holds

    The next morning, Lucy's phone rang, and she saw Noah's name flashing on the screen. She picked up, her voice filled with curiosity why he was calling her early this morning. "Hey, Noah. What's up?"Noah's voice sounded determined yet somewhat distant. "Lucy, I need you to come to my office as soon as possible. We need to discuss the details and sign a contract to formalize our agreement."Confusion washed over Lucy as she tried to process Noah's words. "What agreement, Noah? What do you mean?"There was a brief pause before Noah responded.“I received your message last night. I thought you would agree with my proposal?.” Noah asked, confused.“O! Yeah! Sorry. Must we sign a contract?.” Lucy asked Noah. She had totally forgotten about their discussion and her response at the end.“Yes it’s necessary. As someone who wants to own a business one day Lucy, you should know that you have to always sign a contract to bind any agreement.” Noah explained to her. Lucy rolled her eyes over the

    At precisely 6 pm, there was a knock on the door. Lucy's heart skipped a beat as she hurriedly opened it, revealing Noah standing there, a smile spreading across his face. He was dressed impeccably, a clear indication that he had put thought and effort into this important occasion as well.Noah's eyes widened as he took in Lucy's appearance. His jaw dropped slightly, and for a moment, he was rendered speechless. "Lucy," he finally managed to say, his voice filled with awe, "you look absolutely stunning!"A warm blush crept up Lucy's cheeks as she basked in the genuine admiration in Noah's eyes. She had hoped to make an impression, but his reaction surpassed her expectations. She couldn't help but feel a surge of confidence knowing that she had succeeded in catching his attention.With a gentle smile, Noah reached out and lightly brushed his fingers against the delicate lace of her dress. "If I weren't gay," he said playfully, a mischievous glint in his eye, "I would have fallen head o

    As Lucy and Noah entered the grand house, they were greeted warmly by Noah's parents, Alpha Richard and Luna Amelia. The atmosphere was filled with an air of elegance and tradition, making Lucy feel both excited and slightly nervous about the announcement she and Noah were about to make.After exchanging pleasantries, they all settled down at the dining table. A sumptuous meal had been prepared, and the delicious aroma filled the room. As they enjoyed the food and engaged in light-hearted conversation, Lucy couldn't help but notice the close bond between Noah and his parents. It was clear that they shared a deep love and respect for one another.Once the plates were cleared away, Noah cleared his throat, his eyes flickering with a mix of nervousness and excitement.

    Lucy Knew it. Lucy Knew it! This is her life. Always obstacles.Lucy Thought back to the parent-meeting, biting her thumbnail. Lucy Looked outside, but nothing came to her mind at all.“You are always like that when you’re nervous. It hurts,” Noah said, glancing at me in the passenger seat. He took out some gum from the pocket of his suit after making eye contact. “Chew this instead.”Lucy Took the gum from him, but her hand was visibly shaking.Noah looked at her hand in surprise. “It’s not a big deal,” he said.“What?” Lucy Asked. “Didn’t you see his eyes? He looked like he was about to hurt me.”“There’s nothing he can do. Everybody else is with us. What can he do? It’s a done deal. You don’t have to care about just one disagreement,” Noah answered calmly.“Lucydon’t care about that! He’s going to be her family, I’ll see him regularly after the marriage.” Lucy Broke a piece off of the gum in her hand and put it in her mouth, chewing slowly with tearful eyes.“You are scared, huh?

    “Huh?” I asked, confused.Alpha Damien beckoned to me, not caring about my response. He turned around and headed toward a cafe with his brother’s signature long stride.Here to say goodbye to me? Why? I took my phone out of my backpack and hesitantly followed him. Damien suddenly turned around and gave me a cold stare. He noticed my phone and frowned. It was so obvious that I immediately stopped and put my phone away. When he saw my phone completely disappear, he beckoned me again. I gradually started moving toward him.Ah...damn it. Why...? I wanted to believe it was nothing but I felt anxious, like I was walking into the enemy’s tent. If I screamed, would Noah come back from the departure gate? While I was imagining something Damien would do, I made it to the Cafe. Damien was sitting at an empty table. I sat across from him and put my backpack beside me. I looked over at the menu to order, but he crossed his arms and stared at the table.“Um... are you not gonna order anything?” I

    I handed out my wedding invitations to the three friends sitting opposite me. Nervous, I kept stealing glances at Alpha Damien who sat next to me. As always, Alpha Damien sat with his mouth tightly closed and watched us. He was civil, even at my introduction of him as my future brother-in-law, so I assumed he would just sit there and watch us quietly for the rest of the night.If that’s the case, I would be so grateful. I stole glances at Alpha Damien from time to time.Lucy, your fiance is the guy that came to the theater a long time ago, right? Jean opened up the dialogue from across the table and Darcy joined in.That’s right! He was friends with Henry and was glad to see you when he visited. Didn’t you say it had been a long time since your reunion?So you started dating at that time? my other friend piped up.Because the 3 girls sitting opposite me took turns shooting questions, I started to feel frazzled.“Not, not since then. Well...we were just continuing to keep in touch... I

    People used to say that there is no one that is unable to survive one year of a marriage test. It means that however difficult it may be, as long as the time is short, it is possible to push through it. I’d like to meet the person who uttered those words. I cursed the person who spoke so easily of it. I had only endured a month of it and I’ve already become ragged. I told this to Noah over the phone.Even though this one month is killing me, how do you expect me to do this for a year? I’ll never last a whole year. It’s just a relief that it’s only for two months.I was alone, other than the taxi driver. It had been the first time in a long time that I was able to speak my mind truthfully to Noah. A conversation that I could never utter in front of Alpha Damien.I feel like a prisoner with a month left of sentence before freedom. I put x’s on the calendar counting down the days until you return.[Why did you choose to accept this useless challenge. You didn’t have to.]Who would have

    Sautée the prepped beef, stir in the tomatoes and vegetables, then put them in the sauce. Then, put in the wine and cook it long and slow on low heat. Add salt and pepper to taste....I now only have to put in the mushrooms and bring it to a boil. At the moment I was about to put in the mushrooms, I heard the door open from the bedroom. I put down the empty plate and hurriedly went to greet Alpha Damien.Did you sleep well? Good morning! As I gave my morning greeting with a huge smile, Alpha Damien frowned and opened his mouth.What is this gross smell? Did you let in a hobo?Smell? Ah, I made beef bourguignon. Does it smell okay? Is it weird?Alpha Damien went toward the pot, closed his eyes, and with a serious look smelled the dish. A few moments later, he opened his eyes and glared at me with discontent.You didn’t get rid of the meat smell.Meat smell?I put my head close to the pot and sniffed it.Isn’t this just the smell of meat when you boil it? It’s supposed to be like this w

    I held tightly to my cell phone and ran out into the night. I caught a taxi, and hurriedly arrived at Noah’s house. I rushed into the living room and saw Alpha Damien on the sofa with his arms crossed and a sour look on his face as he glared at me.What were you doing at this hour that you come now?Oh, I, I was at home. My home. I was going to sleep there, and come back in the morning.I had come so quickly at his beckoning that I had forgotten about my embarrassing situation. Alpha Damien answered back in a tone that clearly indicated his disapproval of me.Two months, every day. 24 hours a day. I told you that I am going to live here with you for that time frame. I mentioned this a couple hours ago, didn’t I?.Oh...yes, you did.You wanted to annoy me so you went home on purpose, didn’t you?What?My brother told you to use this house, but like last time you’re going to pretend like I kicked you out. Isn’t that why you went back to your house?&quoOh, no it’s not! I shook my two ha

    Oh, all right. As the doctor went to go get the scissors, Alpha Damien paced beside me not knowing what to do with himself.As the doctor took the scissors to my shoes, Alpha Damien squeezed my shoulder. Then he spoke to me face to face.Just hold on a little. Taking it off like this won’t hurt as much.The doctor took the scissors and snip snip, started to cut open the shoes. The sound made it feel like my skin was being sliced up and it sent chills down my spine. At the same time, I was stuck imagining another gruesome scene which made me lose my mind a little. I grabbed Alpha Damien by the collar and shook him.You think that just because you take it off without hurting me, this is okay? It’s the next part that’s the problem! The next part! Shit, what are you going to do about my leg, my leg!The doctor had carefully slipped off the shoes, and even cut off the sock. As the air touched my bare feet, I covered my face to shield myself from the horrific sight.Ah, I can’t look....Alp

    With rickety steps, I walked out of the mall parking lot.Are you okay? Are you sure you don’t have to go to the hospital? Lucy followed me with worry in her voice. It was really loud when you fell...Are you sure you’re okay?I stopped walking and with my teeth clenched replied to her, Are you a goldfish? Do you forget after 3 seconds? I already told you I was okay? Three times.It’s just that I’m so worried...What if you are not okay but are just saying you are ok...If I’m not okay, then there must be a reason I’m saying I am okay!What, why? Are you embarrassed? It’s nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s alright. You’re only human, you can fall. Don’t worry about it. I understand, she said.You think I care if you understand or not? No, do you think this is something you should even try to understand in the first place? This is something you should be apologizing for!Me? Why?Because it’s all your fault!

    Alpha Damien had made such a fuss and nit-picked at everything when I was doing the choosing, but he just picked everything. He chose every single one of the store’s display of tableware sets.I mean, if that was all he was going to do, why did he make such a big deal about it in the first place? The design has to be like this, the use has to be like that. He was going to end up buying everything without any differentiation anyways!He even bought the Vera Wang special edition! After scolding me when I chose it!Because of my credit limit, I split the purchase between three different credit cards and shed a tear looking at the receipt. My precious money, gone. Even if I somehow got a million dollars, I would never be able to spend like this.I mean, why do we need to buy 20 sets! I exploded, but remembered Alpha Damien was there and quietly changed my tone. There must be a reason you bought it. You wouldn’t just buy all this without reason. Isn’t that right?I tried with all my might
