      Cruel Tears - Anastasia Slash

      Luna

      Power, prestige that’s all they think about in this part of the world. 

      I had no idea I’d run into him, but there he was, standing stoically next to his father. The cold Milo. The handsome guy, I thought I wouldn’t see again in my entire life.

      Milo was not good for me, and I knew it. But what choice would I have? My father owed a debt to Milo’s father, and the only way he could pay back those debts was by sending his daughter off to the head of the richest Mafia family. 

      I had no idea my father decided I would get married to the leader of the Family as they call themselves.

      But then how could I have imagined that it’d be the son, right? I guess I got picked because I am young and a virgin. 

      I recently turned 19, and even though I just started college, they thought it would be right for me to marry an older man to delete my father’s debts? How insane is that?

      I swallowed and listened as my dad, and this older man talked about me. I felt as though the room was spinning all around me, just standing there, unable to say anything.

      My father chuckled as the older man talked about how I would bear him a beautiful baby someday. I cringed. I couldn’t believe he brought along his dark and twisted yet incredibly handsome son, Milo!

      I don’t understand any of this. I guess Milo still in college would be too young for me, right? 

      It made perfect sense that his father obsessed with being ageless would want a young still virginal girl to add to his list of ex-wives, some of whom were never heard from again.

      Milo’s eyes darted to meet mine. He frowned and shook his head. I wondered what was going through his mind? I guessed he was probably feeling sorry for me or something? He turned to look at my father and forced a smile. I knew there was something insanely crazy about this meeting. I looked down to the floor as the tears streamed down my cheek. 

      Why can’t I just be like the typical girl? 

      Why can’t I have a break like everyone else? 

      Why do I always feel like I don’t deserve love?

      I was raised sheltered and did not know there was life outside of the family. My mother told me I would marry a powerful man, but hell, I had no idea this powerful man would be my father’s boss. I watched as Milo rubbed his jaw, amused for some reason. 

      I averted his gaze, and then my eyes met his father’s, and honestly, I could have puked. Why would his old man want me? He had been married multiple times.

      As I recall, his last wife was number 6, and no one heard from her ever since. Rumor has it she died or something. But no one verified it.

      I sighed and listened as my father and Mr. Stein spoke

      So, she looks great. I didn’t know she would be all grown up now. I think she will be thrilled when she gets married to me.

      I thought about how I should have avoided coming down from school for the holidays.

      I had no idea my father would do this, even though it’s been said that my father would have a say in who I get married to, but I wouldn’t have expected my future husband to be his ruthless boss.

      I didn’t want to have anything to do with him. 

      If anything, I turned to Milo, Milo the guy sought after by all the girls out there. 

      Milo, the handsome tall, brooding attractive heir to the billion-dollar most affluent family in the country with homes all over the Bay Area, would soon be my stepson?

      That’s freaking crazy. I shot my dad a dark look and guess what? He frowned. He narrowed his eyes on mine and I realized what he meant by his action; he wanted me to act impressed. Mr Stein walked circles around me and honestly I cringed. He said, She can’t wear rags in my house, right, Milo?

      Milo nodded. He looked straight ahead, avoiding my gaze. I slid my hair behind my ears, wanting this ordeal engagement to end. My father finally walked up to me and held me close. 

      He said, so you are all set. Meet your new fiancé, you my dear would soon be the queen of the ball. My priceless daughter how great is that?

      I forced a smile and then my eyes darted to see Milo’s. He frowned but then he kept a straight face. He would not say a thing I guess. That’s just the way it is.

      I nodded in obedience because that’s the way I was taught to be, obedient to my father's wishes. My mother always said, Men rule the world. We should be grateful to be living in it with them. After all, it's a man’s world all the way.

      Milo’s father walked up to me and kissed my forehead. I thought I would puke. It's not that he’s not handsome or anything but this was not what I planned for my life. I knew he used girls and discarded them too.

      Milo and I had history in high school. Now that we are both in college we still a past. He used to bully me back in the prestigious Haven Star academy.

      Now in college, nothing has changed.

      Well, the only exception is I will soon be his father’s bride. And get this, I have no say whether or not, I want it. It’s just the way it will be.

      Luna

      My father then told me I would have to stay with the Steins for a few days so I could get acquainted to life in the mansion. I turned to him and protested saying, father surely you can’t be serious!

      Dad said, I am deadly serious dear and you have to respect your new husband now. I am just doing what's best for you.

      But what about my ballerina dreams? Don’t they matter at all?

      Dreams can be built again, besides that was all for fun.

      "Do you honestly want to stay this way? Hmm? Do you want your father to go to jail for the rest of his life hmm? I am sorry I don’t understand. You can’t make money being a ballerina. You need not go to college for that. But
