I Was Forced To Marry The Enemy

~KYOMI~

"Have you completely lost it?" My father finally demanded. "Do you think I'll ever stoop to your level and get my daughter married to your son?"

Kevlar seemed calm despite my father's outburst and clear rejection to his offer. "You don't have another choice Dominic, either get your daughter married to Dante or watch her suffer for your stubborn ego and pride."

My father said nothing at that, just continued to glare at him.

"And if it is you aren't that concerned about your own daughter, think about your own reputation. It will be completely ruined if people knew your daughter was fooling around with a Clarke before marriage. " His voice grew quieter, making sure that no outsiders could hear what he was about to say. "You can still save your face by announcing that she was already engaged to Dante and you were waiting for the right time to announce it, the way I see it, that's the only option you have."

My father remained completely silent yet again.

"Think about it Dominic." Kevlar announced as he climbed onto his bike. "My offer wouldn't be here for long."

I watched as Dante's brothers also got onto their bikes and without another word they all sped off one after the next.

There was only one Clarke left now... Dante. He hadn't moved an inch, instead he was still leaned up against the gate.

"Why are you still here?" My father shouted taking a step in his direction. My heart sped up, afraid that he would try and attack Dante. That was the last thing I wanted to see happen.

Dante still didn't move, instead his eyes moved to me. I felt my body shiver at his heated stare, even now despite the situation we were in, I still wanted him like crazy.

I didn't understand these feelings at all.

Whenever he gazed at me it always felt like my entire body was on fire. His earthy green eyes always found a way to make me either squirm or hold me in place. They moved to my cheek now and I saw the way his entire body tensed before he returned his gaze to my father.

"If you lay another hand on her, I'll make it my intention to ruin your reputation way worse than this." He threatened.

I gasped, did Dante really just say that to my father? What did it matter to him?
