The Arranged Heiress

Some girls are born into freedom. Others are born into cages so beautiful they mistake them for palaces. My name is Emelie Harrington, and from the outside, my life looked perfect. Wealth beyond measure. A family name that opened every door. Luxury most people only dream of. But money does not buy happiness. It buys silence. Expectations. Control. As the only daughter of one of the most powerful families in the country, my future was never mine to choose.
Every smile, every appearance, every step I took had already been planned long before I was old enough to understand it. Then I met Calum. He was everything my world wasn't-real, messy, honest, free. With him, I felt something I had never known before. Normal. For the first time in my life, I believed love could be stronger than bloodlines, contracts, and family power. I was wrong. Because while I was busy dreaming of my own future, my parents had already arranged another one.
His name was Aaron. And he came with a ring, a smirk, and a promise that my life would never belong to me again. This is not a fairy tale. This is the story of how I lost everything- and how I decided to fight for it back.
