Sasha drew in a deep breathe. She really did not want to tell her one and only love that she was being forced to marry another. But she had no other choice, her father was dying and that was his last and only request from her. She refused to let him down by marrying someone he would never accept in a million years.<br/><br/>With a shaky breath Sasha finally found her words and uttered them, low and melancholy. "As you know, my father is very ill and is close to death, his final request was to see me married before the week is out and before he passes. So... with many regrets... I am forced to marry James within a few days."<br/><br/>Sasha took in a small and ragged breath. For once in her life she was close to breaking down and crying. She has never felt so terrible in her whole existence. She wanted to run away, to crawl into a deep and dark hole and die there. She would rather die than marry James but if it were to make her father happy, then it was her duty to fulfill his final living wish.<br/><br/>When Lucy heard the news she let out a small gasp. She had no idea why her brother was talking to this bloodsucker, let alone not killing her on sight like they were instructed to do by her father.
