The grand hall was filled with whispers as Lucas stood at the center, trying to control his nerves. He was dressed in a fine suit, but the anger in his silver eyes couldn’t be hidden. He had never imagined that his life would be dictated by an arrangement, much less one that involved a marriage to Lyric.

Lyric was everything Lucas despised—cold, commanding, and an Alpha through and through. His sharp jawline and piercing gaze made him the perfect leader of his pack, but to Lucas, he was just another arrogant obstacle.

The arrangement between their families was simple: a political marriage to secure peace between their two powerful packs. Neither of them had a say in the matter, and both of them were less than thrilled about it.

The ceremony felt like a blur to Lucas. He walked down the aisle, his face carefully neutral, while Lyric stood at the end, waiting with an expression as cold as ice.

“Do you, Lyric, take Lucas…” the officiant asked.

Lyric answered firmly, “I do.”

When it was Lucas's turn, his voice barely shook, “I do.”

The guests cheered, but the applause felt fake to Lucas. It wasn’t a union built on love, but on duty.

The reception was no better. Lyric and Lucas barely spoke as they sat at the head table, their tension palpable.

Lyric leaned in slightly, his voice barely audible. “This doesn’t have to be so bad, you know.”

Lucas didn’t look at him. “We’re both stuck in this mess, let’s just get it over with.”

Their cold, stiff interactions were noticed by everyone in the room. To outsiders, it looked like a normal, if not somewhat awkward, marriage. But to them, it was the beginning of an ongoing struggle.

Later that night, they were alone in their shared suite. The large bed felt more like a battlefield than a place of rest.

“I don’t expect us to share the bed. You can sleep on the couch if you want,” Lyric said, his voice calm but firm.

Lucas raised an eyebrow. “How kind of you.”

Lyric clenched his jaw, trying to hold back his frustration. “I’m just trying to make this work. Don’t make it harder than it needs to be.”

Lucas smiled coldly. “I’m not interested in being your obedient mate.”

Without another word, he claimed his side of the bed, leaving Lyric to take the couch.

Lyric and Lucas’s marriage is off to a rocky start, filled with tension and clashes. Lyric sets strict rules, but Lucas won’t be controlled. Their bickering reveals deeper emotions, hinting at something more between them. Will they continue to fight, or will understanding emerge from the chaos?
