It's a cold winter night. Emily is standing by the window while cool breeze hits her beautiful side face and looking around the room only to see that it is full of roses and candles. She keeps on thinking how her life has changed within a week and now she has become an alpha's wife.
Emily was deep in thoughts when she heard a series of footsteps and was startled.
She then realized that today is her wedding night and the person who is about to enter the room is her new husband William Rostov, the lord of this castle and the alpha of the werewolf's.
Emily took a deep breath to control her panic and before she could turn around, she heard a dark, cold voice,
"What are you doing here?"
Emily was scared by his voice, she turns around and looks at him without looking into his eyes.
In her mind, she doesn't know how to answer his question. So just as others she bended down her head a little, trying to calm her mind and said,
"Your Highness, I was just refreshing myself here".
William replied, "Come inside, I need to tell you something" in his same dark, deep voice freezing her.
Emily just nodded her slightly.
William Rostov is a 25 year old werewolf lord, he is merciless to his enemies, cold, rude, arrogant, clever and is the cruelest in the whole werewolf world. He is known for his cruel and merciless nature in handling his enemies.
Emily is a 21 year old orphan who was found by the orphanage dean at the entrance of the orphanage when she was only 1 month old.
Emily was left in a basket with only a royal purple color blanket covering her and a letter written mentioning her name as Emily Watson.
She was emitting the aura of a born queen and the dean took her into the orphanage as his adopted daughter.
She is a simple college girl, elegant in nature, a little nerdy in nature but kind hearted.
Let's see what fate has stored in for them.
When Emily entered the room, leaving the balcony, noticing the room decorations which was quite beautiful with candles, rose petals which lying on the bed and the carpet.
She was so panicky that she couldn't control her thoughts and movements and just want to run away from this room, far away from this person and this castle, back to her small room in the orphanage.
But suddenly many faces and their pleadings appear in front of her eyes and for them she calms down her heart.
She then looked up to the person who is standing in front of her, still not looking into his eyes.
"Are you afraid of me?" William asked coldly.
"Uh??" Emily did not hear him and looked blankly at him.
"Are you afraid of me!!?" William asks again this time even more coldly and darkly with slight irritation in his voice.
"No, No", Emily replies trying to act casual.
"Then why are you looking down and not looking at my face or do you think that you are the most beautiful creature and I'm just a beast so by looking at me your aesthetics will be spoiled right?" William said angrily.
Emily was stunned for a moment then she dumbly looked up to see the man...
Her eyes were awestruck for a moment.
He was wearing a black overall with a black and golden long coat.
His sapphire blue eyes were holding so many unspeakable words, his face full of anger and irritation, his fair white skin glowing like a diamond over his black and golden dress.
All of this made up for his appearance as a cold, merciless, powerful man. Indeed, he was called a Lord.
Emily was thinking in her mind,
"Holly Hell!! I really didn't expect a werewolf to be this handsome. His face can overthrow all the handsome men in the world.
Why didn't I notice it before??
How can you idiot, when you didn't even look at his face properly!!!"
William was taking note of all the expressions on the face of the woman in front of him and was thinking,
"Is she lost in my appearance??
Maybe!!
No not maybe, it is for sure, after all I'm the most handsome amongst men.
Idiotic female!!
I don't know what the hell did mother see in this woman.
But I must say that she is indeed very beautiful.
Oh, common Wil, What the hell are you thinking.
She is a human and you hate humans the most!!"
On the other side, Emily was wearing a pearl white gown with a diamond tiara, her black hair which was waist length spread out in front of her shoulders, her clear hazel eyes drawn with black kajal making it the most beautiful in the world. There was not a speck of impurity in her eyes making them the reliable and worthy of trust. She is looking like a fairy just descended from heaven.
(To be continued)
William relaxed his thoughts for a moment. He was hesitating how to put his thought into words but finally spoke,
"Well, before you run your thoughts wild, I Would like to make myself clear to you ..."
"What is it?" Emily spoke.
William took a deep breath and said,
"I am not willing to accept this marriage at all. I have only agreed to it because of my mother. But I have no clue as to why she chooses you within a span of few days.
Look, I absolutely detest humans.
Their evilness, greedy nature makes me feel sick and I absolutely fee that I'm far better than them even if I'm a beast.
So never ever expect anything from me.
I can never give you the love which a wife expects from her husband because I don't have a heart and never will I be able to feel it especially to humans.
I will give you as much money as you want and you can do anything as you will, but I expect that you will never cheat on me, neither will I do that.
All I can say is that, you can enjoy my power, reputation, wealth but never expect me to love you. That's all..."
Emily was speechless after hearing this.
She is so angry especially after hearing the last sentence
"enjoy my power, reputation, wealth.....
What the hell does he think about her?
Who the hell cares about his wealth, power??
She is not a gold digger or something"
She did not know how to react or vent out her anger towards him.
After all, how could she do that!!
She is just a mere human but he is a powerful beast.
Not just powerful, but also the most powerful!!!
She calmed herself and gathered all the courage she could and said,
"Then why did you agree to this marriage??
Why??
I don't even want to get married to you, it was you all who threatened and forced me to marry you.
I'm just 21, I have a dream of my own. I have had a life of my own. I don't even why you wanted to marry an orphan like me.
If you were not willing to marry a human and if you hate humans so much, you could have just said that to your mother before our marriage.
I was not in a position to refuse the marriage as it was you who forced me.
Why!! Why!!! Tell me!!
Why do I have to suffer?
What's my fault in this?
Just because I'm an orphan or a human?
Maybe you hate the humans but not every person in our world is as evil as you think.
Even if they are, that doesn't mean I have to bear the punishment!!
You totally ruined my peace, my dreams without thinking!!
You barged into my world and ruined everything I had in just a weak. You forced me to marry you at the cost of the lives of the people whom I hold dearest to my heart.
Why did you do that?? Why??"
Tears kept rolling down from her clear eyes.
Is that what she deserved?
A young girl dreams who had never experienced warmth in her life, hoping to find love from her prince charming were all ruined.
Even though this marriage was forced on her, she had a tiny bit of hope that she could change this man and get some love from him.
But, all these hopes were shattered by this beast and here she was arguing with this beast over her forced marriage.
William was quite for all the time.
He looked in her red tearful eyes. A small part of his heart felt guilty for what he did.
But he soon recovered as this marriage was necessary and he should do it.
But, an indescribable pain rose in his heart for a brief moment. Even he himself was not aware why. He thought it was an illusion.
