The sun was setting as my beautiful bride came walking down the aisle. Her long white dress with lace was trailing behind her. She caught my eyes and I smiled. This is it, this is the moment I will remember forever the pure joy of getting to marry her, Lela. When she got to me I took her hands. The preacher began his speech. This part all went by in a blur, all I could think of was her. I snapped out of my thoughts.
"You may now say your vows" The pastor said.
"I, Lela Acker, take you, Caspian Bartley, for my lawful husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part. I will love and honor you all the days of my life." My love said looking deep in my eyes.
"I, Caspian Bartley, take you, Lela Acker, for my lawful wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part. I will love and honor you all the days of my life." I vowed intending to carry out everything I just promised.
"You may now kiss the bride" I pulled her into my arms and kissed her soft lips. Everyone cheered in the background but I did not hear all I could think of was her. She is now mine to hold forever.
"You taste like fruit punch," I whispered in her ear. The rest of the night went by in a flash as did these past few months. One day three months after that day we were eating dinner as usual. One of my cooks came over and set our dinner down. Oh wait I forgot to mention I run one of the biggest companies in the world today making about 7.34 trillion so I have a pretty nice mansion and some help keeping the house in shape. I got married about two years after I got my business very high in the game. But anyways we were having chicken parmesan for dinner, Lela helped to cook tonight. I took a bite and wow it was really good. Lela was staring at me though. I discreetly sniffed the food. Oh dang she poisoned it, and I thought this one was going to be different, guess not.
"So my love, how was your day?" I asked while taking another bite. What don't judge me, it's really good. She stared at me expecting me to drop dead but nope I'm still sitting right here.
"It,it was good" She stuttered out.
"Well that's good," I said with a calm smile. I ate the rest of my food and then we headed to our bedroom. I jumped in the shower then changed into PJs. The next morning I found a knife in my chest. Cool this is quite a pretty knife. I changed into day clothes and walked into the dinning room where my love was. She stared in complete shock.
"Hey love, do you want this knife back or can I keep it?" I asked moving to kiss her on the forehead. She just stared. "Hey Lela, are you okay?" I said, feeling her forehead.
"I'm going insane" She mumbled and walked out the front door. Welp there goes another wife. I've lost seven all trying to take my money by killing me to inherit my money, all of them I have loved, it takes me about 100-200 years to find my next wife.
