The moment he heard from his parents that there was a woman who was betrothed to him when he was a boy of twelve. He threw a tantrum! And even yelled at his parents to back it out but it was his grandfather's decision so no one can argue with it. He was Fifteen the thought of having a betrothed still made his blood boil. But when he turned Sixteen when he first saw his Betrothed on a gala from afar he actually was dumbfounded by her beauty. Even at the age of Fifteen the girl already had a lovely figure.
Now after four years that woman who captured his eyes along with his heart was now infront of him. However she never recognised him at all.
Nor did she know about her arranged marriage.
Back to present
Luke was in a daze somehow. But he let out a sigh of regret after thinking she didn't know that he was going to be her husband in the near future.
Catie turned her head from side to side and decided to ask where were they.
"Monarch Villa." Luke answered shortly
Yeah as I said Catie was not the stupid girl her father claimed her to be. She was once an international prize winner in Piano at Australia, she won in an international ballet competition in France, A dance competition, singing competition etc. Although she used a different name. This was why was their company grew stronger knowing how great their heiress was, businessmen always agreed to having a collaboration when it comes to the Morgenstern Enterprise. And also she was popular in school because she had the highest grades among all of the students, from first year to her seniors. She also earned the titles Campus Flower,Campus Sweetheart, Campus Queen And the Heart of the Campus. Because not only is she smart her looks are absolutely stunning! And she is super nice to people. But there was only a small amount of people who knew who she was. She used her cousin's name Catarina Walker outside the bussiness circle and the friends circle. Catarina walker was a distant relative whom her mother adopted and died at the age of four for trying to save Catie from an incident.
Back to the story
She knew the Monarch Villa. This was where the most powerful families live. There are currently four mansions. People actually wonder who lives in the other two houses because they already know that the President and her sister's Family namely The Herondales occupy the two mansions.
That thought struck Catie Hard...
Didn't this guy said he was a Herondale?? Who was it again?
*WAIT.WAIT.WAIT!!!
This can't be!! I remember!! He's THE Charles Luke Herondale. The one and only CHARLES LUKE HERONDALE!!!
Luke must've seen how she reacted.. I mean obviously.. He saw how shocked she was when she looked up at him and Still she couldn't believe she was talking to him.
Catie was still unable to utter a single word as she looked at the man from time to time. Charles Luke Herondale actually carried her from the Garden! Took her to his mansion and even take care of her! This is unbelievable!! It's Too much! I must be hallucinating, it's impossible. I might need to call a doctor. A million thoughts ran across Catie's mind but then it abruptly stopped.
"Hey! Catie!" Luke almost shouted
Catie came back to reality in a split second. Then suddenly when she looked up...
"Great so Now you're back to reality. heh" Luke said as he smirked
DAMN! WHY IS HE LEANING SO FRICKIN' CLOSE TO ME!?
She immediately leaned back "Mr.-Mr. H-erondale.. I.. Thank you for your hospitality.. But.. My Mother should be looking for me now.. I. I must go.." Catie stammered the words. Well of course! Who couldn't be surprised!
" Hmm. Leaving so soon? Did I Say you're free to go? My room has a passcode in and out and so is the entrance and the gates So how are you planning to leave?" Luke said His room was so spacious more like a suite but doesn't have any dining table.
Catie was halfway to the door when she spotted a bar code on the right side of the door and indeed he was telling the truth. Catie didn't have a choice but to go back and stand infront of Luke.
