breath catches in his throat as he glances over his shoulder at the prince. sasuke could be quite cruel when he wanted to be and remington could do nothing about it. what could he do? they had no say in this marriage and the other was loud and clear about his discontent with it.
remington, like most, had dreamed of marrying for love, not obligation. perhaps he had been a fool to think he could have happiness, too.
"right," he murmurs, looking back down at his book. he closes it, no longer interested in the words on the page. "then we best get to acting like we can stand to be near each other long enough for the ceremony and the party after, yes?" he turns to face sasuke completely now, hazel eyes guarded. "at the very least, we're going to have to kiss in front of everyone to show that the marriage is official. after that. . ."
a loveless marriage. it sounded like torture. to be bound to someone who cared nothing for their spouse. in a fairytale, they'd magically fall in love, but he could not see that happening with the two of them. ". . . after that, well, it will be a problem for us later."
