More Than Lust novel Chapter 48

Authors pov

Grace saw blankness for a second as her world turned upside down, she looked at him in utter shock when he said those words.

Grace looked at him with wide eyes and refused to believe in her ears.

"You will marry me"

He said with authority.

Her heart stuck in her throat. She was hoping that she might have heard it wrong.

But it wasn't, it's real. His face was Inch away from her and he was looking straight into her soul through her eyes.

She blinked her eyes, was he really asking her to marry him. Isn't he already engaged to Leena. Why would he ask her to marry, a common girl. And why her. What is he planning? These thoughts quickly flashed in her mind.

"B_But___"

She couldn't understand what to say.

"Does it look like i am asking you. I am telling you"

He looked at her sternly.

"If you want to see your father alive then do as I say... If you tried to do anything stupid then I will give him worst possible death and you will watch it..."

She froze in her place when he said that, he wasn't messing around, he was serious. Tears rolled down from her eyes.

"No Grace don't do it... No you can't marry him. Let me die, i deserve it but don't destroy your life for me."

Her father thrashed in bounds.

"I can't let you die dad..."

She sobbed.

"You are my only family."

She looked at him with sad face.

Dominick grabbed her hand and dragged her out. Grace looked at her father in panick.

"My dad, pleaseet him go."

She pleaded.

"He will stay there until you marry me."

Dominick replied and dragged her towards the room which was beside his master bedroom.

He grabbed her by arms and warned.

"Try to do anything and you will see my worst face..."

He took her mobile and placed in his pocket.

He locked the door leaving her inside the empty room. Grace sat on the bed while grabbing her head in disbelief.

'you will marry me'

That's what he said. 'will' her thoughts, opinion and consent doesn't matter. Everything ended when he said 'will'

Grace was terrified. This is not what she desired. She was eager to start her life again but now she regret that these four months ended and she have to face this.

She doesn't want to marry him, this is not normal marriage. He is mafia, criminal and cruel. He is dominant, he doesn't care about her consent.

There will be no equality in their relationship because she can't stand against him. He can control and manipulate her life the way he wants. There won't be any love, he will use her like a sex toy. A wife whom he can use whenever and however he wants.
