Arranged Marriage With A Game Developer

Chapter 4

Nati's P.O.V.

Humigpit ang pagkakahawak ko sa tinidor at kutsara na nasa kamay ko. My eyes narrowed in anger while looking at the unfinished food in my plate. There is a part of me who felt betrayed. Why would my own parents do this to me?

"What the heck is wrong with all of you?" Sa wakas ay hindi nakatiis na bulalas ko.

Everyone in the table turn to look at me, completely surprise of my sudden outburst. I let out a sarcastic smile. It seems to me that none of them expect my tantrums. Are they all thinking that I'll be okay with this?

"I just came back here from Solstice, and you guys wants me to marry that man?" Hindi makapaniwalang wika ko saka itinuro si Clay gamit ang tinidor ng hawak ko.

"Hey, you are making this sound as if marrying me is a bad thing." Sagot ni Clay saka dinampot ang baso ng wine sa tapat niya at saka lumagok mula roon.

Pinanlakihan ko ito ng mata sa pagkairita.

"Yeah, it's despicable." I hissed at him and put down the spoon and fork. I lost my appetite already. "I'm not marrying him. After the your wedding anniversary, I'm going back to Solstice."

I stand up from my seat and walk out of the dining. Napahilot ako sa sentido ko habang naglalakad patungo sa hagdan. What's up with my parents? What the heck are they thinking betrothing me to the person I hate so much? I'm pretty sure that none of them are aware about my history with Clay. However, who's doing arranged marriage this days? That's so nineteen hundreds.

Hindi ko mapigilan ang mapailing. People sure have an odd ways of thinking. Is this the main reason why my parents badly wants me back here in Haerai? So that they can trap me in a wedding with Clay? Well, I'm so sorry to disappoint them, but there's no way I will agree to marry him. I hate that man to hell and back.

Akmang aakyat ako sa unang baitang ng hagdan nang may humila sa pulsuhan ko. Bago pa man ako makareact ay nahila na ako nito palabas ng bahay.

"Let me go, Dream!" I hissed in a controlled anger as I try to pull my wrist from his hold. However, to no avail he is so much stronger than me.

Kumuyom ang kamao ko sa galit rito. I want to slap him. The way he talk a while ago makes me think that he is all okay with our arranged marriage. Why on earth he seems so okay with all of this set up?

"No, we need to talk." May paninindigang saad nito.

Saka lang ako nito binitiwan ng makarating kami sa isang may katandaang willow tree sa likod ng bahay.

"Yeah, sure. Let's talk." Wika ko saka namewang sa harap nito. "What the heck are you thinking, Dream? Don't you have a girlfriend to marry? I have my own life in Solstice. I won't marry you!"

If I am a kind of dragon, I am probably breathing fire with anger right now. It's my first day here in Haerai. It's my first day and this is the news that will welcome me. News flash, I'm getting married to a man that I badly want to drag to the deepest pit of hell.

"Look, stop taking everything personally. If I don't marry you, Valkyria will be taken away from me. And no, I'm not going to lost my baby just because you are acting like a spoiled brat doll right now." Sagot nito sa akin.

I take a deep breath and close my hand in a tight fist to avoid slapping his face. I'm clenching my teeth so harshly that I can already feel my jaw hurting right now.

"That," I pointed his chest using my forefinger. "is you problem. Not mine."

To my irritation. Clay let out a smirk at me.

"Well honey, since you are my future wife. It's our problem." Wika nito saka hinawakan ang kamay ko nakadikit sa dibdib niya. "Also don't worry about my girlfriends, I don't have a permanent one. Women are all the same, they all have what men's need. It's not a big deal for me who I need to marry."
