The Gangster's Crush Family over Freedom
"Cupcake, if you don't agree to marry me, no one can help you from getting killed. You, your parents, and your friend—they'll be dead the moment I step out, not because I want to kill you or them but because everyone who goes against my word must die; that's the rule. Marrying me will just keep you safe. Don't worry, I am not a monster and yes, after today no one would dare think about marrying you."
"What??" Rida thought the quota of her misery would be over now that Drake was gone but the miseries were not done dealing with her. Zeus smirks looking at her. Was this his plan all along? Rida followed him as he walked out of the venue.
"Say your goodbyes; we are leaving," Zeus states, staring back at Rida, who had no idea what just happened. "But—I—"
"We don't have time," Zeus reminds her. "But—"
"Your parents will die, Rida!" Rida agreed to marry the monster because of her parents, to keep them safe, and even now she has no choice but to leave with a stranger to assure their safety. "Can't you help—" Zeus stares at her. Why would he help someone who means nothing to him? Maybe he could have but why would he want to do that without a reason?
"..."
Which is a better option? Marrying a r*pist or his boss?
Rida was left with worse choices, but her parents' lives depended on her decision.
Why? Who? When? Didn't matter when lives were at stake.
Rida chooses to go with Zeus when promised to keep her parents alive and safe. She traded her life and freedom for their lives; it's a pretty deal? Isn't it?
Will it really be?
