Chapter 1 - Arranged Marriage

Luna's POV

" You must get married to Shane Horton! Don't you dare go against my order! I'm still your father!". My father said hitting his walking stick on the marble floor. I raised my cold eyes at him, wondering if he ever saw me as his daughter or just a business opportunity.

Chuckling coldly i turned around to leave the Fisher's mansion, suddenly losing the strength to argue with him any further.

"Give me the car keys!" i told the driver coldly. Looking at him shaking slightly before dropping the keys in my palm. Getting into my black Bugatti, I let out a long sigh.

Marry Shane Horton? Never! i don't even know how that man looks like. All I know is he is the CEO of Black Opal company and is currently not in the country, well he hasn't been in the country for 5 years. The reason why I don't know him is because when he took over his father's company and merged it with his, I was still in the university and haven't fully taken over the Fisher's group.

My name is Luna Fisher, the only daughter of Wilson and Tammy Fisher. The CEO of the Fisher's group. I have deep brown eyes, long lashes, caramel complexion,long straight black hair that reaches my butt and a small black birthmark right below my right eye, more like a mole. I am very beautiful and I know that. I am mixed which means my Dad is white and my Mom is of black race.Many call me the Medusa which I find really funny because I don't have snakes on my hair nor do I have eyes that turn people to Statue. They also call me Cold, domineering, indifferent and ruthless, well not that I blame them, I honestly think I don't have a heart anymore. Love has never been in my dictionary ever since I found out my long term ex- boyfriend cheated on me with my then best friend, well that was years ago.

Pushing all those thoughts to the back of my mind, I ignited my car and drove off. Not really having anywhere else to go, I pulled up to the front apartment of my friend Emily. Emily has been by my side since kindergarten, we separated when we got to the university because she went to law school abroad.

Getting out of my car, I went up to her door amd rang the bell waiting for her to open.

"Heyyy bestieee" Emily squeals immediately she saw my face. Emily is beautiful with brown shoulder length hair, blue eyes and small lips. Sometimes I envy her enthusiastic spirit.

Pulling off my black stilleto heels and sitting on the couch " Hey" I said . Noticing I wasn't in a good mood, she immediately sat down beside me

"What's wrong sweetie?" She asks, her voice laced with concern. Sometimes she acts like she's my mom, not that I'm complaining, she's the only person I can show my emotions to.

"He wants me to get married to Shane Horton" i replied rubbing my temple

"Shane Horton? .... Shane Horton, wait! The Shane Horton?" She asks suddenly looking at me with wide eyes.

"Yes... Honestly i don't even know him" I said shrugging.

"well I don't have anything to say, I know you will find a way , like you always do. I trust you " She said placing her hand on my shoulder. Her words stiring my cold heart a little.

"Well while on that, today's Friday. Let's go have some fun"

" Ughh, I don't fee...".

" No, no no, no excuses today!" She raise her right hand stopping me.

Staring at myself in the mirror, I wondered why I agreed to this in the first place. I'm wearing a red, short dress, with some red stilleto heels and a black purse. My makeup is well done with a Smokey eyeshadow and a red lipstick. I obviously look like a seductress.

"Let's go, let's go" Emily shouted from the living room. I walked out and saw her applying my black lipstick. She's putting on a black miniskirt with a deep nude crop top and some black heels, her shoulder length hair is packed in a ponytail .

We left the house to the parking lot,into my black Bugatti car and drove off. Tonight I'll get loose a little, maybe it's not a bad idea going to the club anyways.

Arriving at the Quinox Club, we exited the car, the security bowing lightly to me, we went into the club. The Quinox night Club is owned by the Fishers primarily me. I opened it when I took over the company. The club is frequented by both celebrities, politicians, businessmen/women and common people.

Deciding not to go to the VIP, we went to the common room. Immediately we stepped in, all eyes turned to eyes. Emily basking with the eyes on us, was smiling widely showing her perfect white teeth.

"Wow, look at those gorgeous women"

"Who's the one on the red dress? I want her"

"I want the one of the black outfit"

"I'm going crazy over the one on red, quick, go call her over" one said signaling to one of his escorts

I glanced around and it took one look for everyone to freeze.

"wait! is that Luna Fisher?"

"what is she doing here?"

"wow , she is so stunning, now I know why men are going crazy for her"

Rolling my eyes, I smirk lightly. Men will be men I guess. walking to the bar, we sat down and ordered for our drinks.

"I'll go with a Martini" I said. The bartender look shocked, his eyes gawking,his mouth slightly wide open.

Tilting my head to the left " Did you hear me? I said raising a brow.

"I'm sorry ma'am... I... I'll get it now" He stutters. Furrowing my brows. what's wrong with all these people?

"Hahahaha, the poor guy is mesmerized by your beauty. I told you, stop overworking yourself and enjoy life a little " Emily said laughing.

Rolling my eyes, I turned to see the bartender still gawking at me, my drink in his hand. Checking his name tag " Stevie", I flashed him a dazzling smile and collected my drink. Standing up, I glanced at him and saw his face reddened. wait! is he blushing?.

Emily and I found a booth and sat down,with eyes still following us around but no one dared to come over. Emily seeing that no one was coming to talk to us , obviously scared of me decided to go dance on the dance floor.
