Wedding Night 2

Michelle's POV.

"Ahhhh!" My screams echoed in the house as I was pinned down. I thought it was over, feeling the person's pressure on my body and speed. I knew the person would be a professional assassin.

'I haven't done anything yet in my life I don't want to die' I thought, shivering. I knew Dell cannot take it that far by sending someone to kill me, but who could it be?

I was so scared until I heard his voice. "Michelle?"

'Lucian?' I mulled in my head. Then it made sense why the attacker's body was cold. "Lucian Houston?" I called his full name just to be sure. I guessed the rumor about him was true. He was indeed an underground lord.

He released me from his grip, and stood up.

"What are you doing in the dark?" He said after he switched on the light, but I didn't reply to him.

He could understand after seeing the apple seeds on the floor. "I..I was...hungry...boo..hoo" my lips trembled, as tears welled from deep inside and coursed down my cheeks.

I didn't know why I was crying over a question, tears spilt over and flowed down my face like a river escaping a dam.

"I....." I couldn't say my words as a solemn tear fell down my cheek; my body looked calm compared to how tangled my mind was. Moans escaped my lips through the suppressed sound of hiccups.

I wasn't crying because I was abandoned, but because of how miserable I was. Finding out about my cheating fiance and my bitch stepsister on the night before my wedding, and changing the groom to a well-known ruthless underground lord.

My life was a drama I couldn't bring myself to watch. I just wanted to leave everything and forget it, but I couldn't. I felt so wrong, and wouldn't back down without a fight.

"Stand up" he pulled me up with his two hands carefully. He pulled a chair out for me, motioning me to sit down.

"People will step on you easily if you cry so easily."

He waited for me to wipe my tears, before talking. "Why are you still here?" He asked like I was invading his privacy.

He looked so relaxed in his bathrobe, his hair was still wet, and his skin looked so cool. I thought, 'did he live here?' but the house looks so empty including the kitchen.

I guessed he came inside when I was busy eating. I almost got distracted looking at the hunk standing in front of me, but I would not stupidly fall for another Houston.

"Like I want to be here, I was abandoned by you and your assistant" I said, almost crying.

"What? I ordered him to__" he was talking, but he paused when he realized something.

"I was so occupied, I didn't pass the order."

"You should have called me, or someone else" he added nonchalantly, and that irked me.

"I was abandoned in this house without a cellphone or a guard. What if I really got attacked?" I blurted angrily.

I was done being emotional hearing him taking it lightly. "It's late, I will have him drop you off tomorrow" Lucian said, ignoring the rudeness in my voice.

He walked towards the refrigerator and picked a bottle of water. "It's a disaster" he shook his head, looking at the mess I created on the floor, before leaving the kitchen. I felt embarrassed a little bit.

But I ran after him immediately, trying to seize the opportunity to discuss our future plan. I need him to get back then. "We still have a lot of things to discuss, Mr Huston" I said slowly, that one would not remember that I got angry at him earlier.

He stopped all of sudden, making me step backwards. "We will discuss it tomorrow."

"But__and aren't tired? You have been wearing it all day" I wanted to talk, he cut in, referring to my wedding gown.

I looked away from him, feeling embarrassed because that was the second time he would be complaining about my dress. I guess he just hate the dress or he just hated weddings.

"You can rest in the first room, and don't come to my room unless you are facing a death issue" he said emphasizing on the 'death' word.

"Okay" I replied politely.

"But can I borrow your phone, then? I need to call someone very important" I pleaded, and he glared at me before giving it to me.

I expected him to leave after giving me his phone, but he was rooted on the spot with his gaze fixed on me. 'What a petty man' I thought.

I dialed Bella's number, but she didn't pick it. I was sure she would be worried about me, so I kept trying.

"Enough, you can meet the person tomorrow." He snatched his phone from my hand, and turned to leave.

"I need..... some clothes to change....into" I said slowly. "Follow me" he breathed heavily, looking at me like a burden.

He told me to stop in front of his room while he went inside. After some time, he came out holding a white shirt in his hand.

"This should be enough" he threw it at me, and turned around, but then halted his steps and looked at me before his lips parted to talk.

"How much do you hate him?" He asked out of blue. I arched my eyebrows in confusion hearing his words.

"Do you mean Dell?"

He nodded at me slightly. "That jerk made a fool out of me," I said with my teeth gritted.

"Do you hate him enough to kill him? If yes, how do you want him dead?" His words echoed in the room leaving me speechless.

"K..kill?"

I hated Dell, but I didn't want to get blood on my hand all in the name of revenge, but the look in Lucian's eyes says otherwise.

My enemy's enemy? I guess..... I found an ally!
