Diana's POV

  It was the night before the wedding that I came across articles on the internet regarding my marriage with Baekhyun. As expected, them es called me a , hoe, , and everything in the negative dictionary. But I couldn't care less, because I didn't want this marriage either. But I had to want this and it's my last night as a free woman. I should be out having fun, maybe a party. But instead I locked myself in my room, with my bed clothes on, so early in the night.   My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door and my parents' voice came after. I rushed to unlock the door and let my parents into my room. I invited them to sit on the couch in the sitting area of my room. And I took a seat adjacent to them to listen to what they have to say.   "Anne, are you feeling alright?" My mother sounded genuinely concerned. Oh so she suddenly feels bad now? "I'm alright mom. Just a little bothered by the comments on the internet..." "Oh sweetie, you shouldn't be worried about that, they can't do a thing to you or to Baekhyun alright? It's not them we have to worry about." "Your mother is right Anne, you must take your mind off those comments. We're here to ask you something." I felt nervous of what they're asking me to do. What if it was something crazier than this marriage? Gosh I'm going insane.   "What is it that you want me to do?" My father took a deep breath before beginning, "Well, you have graduated from university and you are old enough to have a job. All this time you've only been going on these missions. I want you to stop going on these missions and just run Shadows by command. You must be near Baekhyun 24/7. That is why we have talked to the CEO and owner of the SM Ent Company, to hand over management issues to you. So starting from the day you return from your honeymoon, you will become the CEO of SM Ent and keep a close eye on Baekhyun." "You won't have any problems dear, Claire will be with you and you have a degree in business and management. 2 degrees really, so I know you can do this."   I stared at my parents in shock, my jaw hanging unceremoniously in surprise. I could not believe they wanted me to stop what I love to do and told me to start commuting to work. The world hated me, I just knew it... I was disappointed, shocked, angry, sad and all these mixed emotions came crashing down on me full force. I sat still, not responding to anything. I still couldn't digest this properly, this was going to be hard even with Claire. She was my father's most trusted secretary and she knew Shadows like the back of her hand. But it was all so crazy and impossible.   "You really want to do this to me? Haven't you felt like you've asked too much from me? You took away my freedom to choose a partner for life, and now you're telling what I should and shouldn't do with my life? Who do you think you are? I get that you're my parents but this is too much. I need time to think this over, don't you dare think I am alright with all of this. Now, please leave me alone."   My parents looked at each other sadly, but I couldn't care less. They quickly stood up and exited the room. I watched them leave and slumped my body on the couch, I didn't know what I was supposed to do, what I was supposed to think about this. I absolutely did not want to stop going on missions, going to work is kind of alright although it was a heavy burden. I was too messed up to think more on this and decided to sleep on it.     -The Next Day-   I woke up to multiple knocks on my door and suddenly maids poured into my room and saying "Wake  up Ms.Song! It's finally D-Day!" in unison. I groaned, realizing full well that today, I will no longer be free. And also the fact that it was so early in the morning, it's torturous to wake up at this ungodly hour. But what could I do really...    The maids ushered me to an extravagant bath and they scrubbed me clean. Next they sat me in front of my vanity mirror, while a preparation team came and did my nails, hair and make up. I saw myself transformed and I had to admit I looked gorgeous. I gu
