Lonely Bride

CH-1

I am standing in a church in front of my husband. Yes, my husband has not given a single glance to me as yet.

"Now you may Kiss The Bride" Priest announced.

Hearing this I stiffened and my palm was sweating but I acted as normal as I could. I fisted my palm and clenched my jaw to control my emotions.

He finally turns towards me and I look up to see his face but he has no expression. No smile no anger no affection no frustration and moreover NO LOVE!

I want to laugh at the thought, that someone can even love me?

He slowly came towards me and tilted his head a little, I looked up to see his face, I was looking into his blue eyes and he was looking at my grey.

Nervousness took over me when he came real close to me and I closed my eyes and waited for the kiss but I never felt his lips on my skin.

I came out of my thoughts when I heard a cheering sound from our family and a few friends who were invited to the wedding.

And then I understood he just acted as if he kissed me.

I faced many but this was the best insult I have faced till now.

Wow, a husband denied a kiss to his newly wedded wife. Just wow.

Tears welled up in my eyes but I hid them instantly as I didn't want anyone to see my weakness.I again looked at him and he was smiling at everyone saying thank you.

''What an act, '' I thought, looking back at everyone around us.

After some time we bid goodbye to my father who was more than happy for me to be leaving his life.

My Grandmother is the only person I have in my life. When I see her I feel I am still loved by someone and love exists in my life too.

She held my hand and I had tears in my eyes as she was the one I used to get some warmth from but my father took away that also and sent me to a hostel far away from her. And today again he did the same.

"Princess, don't worry, this is the end of your struggle in your life. Now you are not alone, Sean is with you and he will take care of you." I nod a little as I know better how much he will care for me.

She looked towards him and said "son take care of my princess. She is my pride."

I look towards Sean, he was silent for a moment thinking something then nods but, I look into his eyes and I can read how unsure he is of this promise. I smirk at my fate.

I looked at my grandmother and said "take care granny and call me every day ok?"

"Of course my little flower I will," she said, creasing my cheeks.

Finally, we sat in the car and left for I don't know where.

We reached the mansion, almost the same as ours, maybe a little bigger but for me, it's still the same because I don't care about this materialistic stuff.

He got down from the car and left inside without even looking at me. I felt bad a little but then I laughed internally as to what I was expecting him to hold me in his arms and take me inside?

My thoughts broke when I heard someone clearing his throat and I looked up and saw the driver was standing with the open door.

I nodded to him in thank you and started walking inside.

This mansion looks beautiful, I look at the surroundings, it has a beautiful garden and big-big trees around and so many security guards.

Is he a President or what? For what does he need this much security? I shake my head at this rich person's unnecessary drama.

I started walking towards the giant door, my heels were making a clicking sound on the fine shining marble.

I crossed the porch and reached the living room and saw him standing there with all his glory keeping his hands in his pocket, and I guess maybe waiting for me?

I stood at my place a few feet away from him and looked at him as I waited for him to speak. And finally, I got the grace to hear his voice (don't ignore my sarcasm)

"First of all, never forget this is my house and if you want to live here you have to follow my rules. And if you don't want to live fuck off. I don't like noise in the house, the second stays out of my business and the third doesn't come to front me if possible and do whatever you want." He showed me a black card he was holding in his hand and said, "and never bother me."

He threw the card on the table and started walking but stopped and called out to Anna, A lady in her mid-50 came running and bowed down towards him and said "Yes Master".

"Show her the basement". He said in one go and left for I don't know where.

My heart got shattered into pieces hearing this. I had faced many things in my life still belonging to a rich family, I always had luxury around me. I never thought I would live in some basement after my marriage.

She looks at me with a blank expression and nodded towards me to follow her and due to no other option I did as I was told but not before taking his card.

We reached the basement after crossing eleven stairs.

Yup, I counted.

She turned on the light and I saw the place and to my dismay, it's not a normal basement, it's a beautiful small house with a small living room, kitchen, and one big bedroom.

Looking at this my heartfelt some ease, at least it's not as bad as I thought so.

Feel home Miss Williams the lady name Anna spoke with a bit of bitterness.

I looked towards her "it's Mrs. Hudson for you, '' I said, raising my eyebrows. What did she think she could dominate? Like it or not I am still his legally wedded wife and nothing can change that.

I smirk at her thinking, 'oh darling you don't know me yet.'

"Certainly mam." Saying this she smirks back making me mum.

Well, I can't say anything more when my husband doesn't want to accept me as his wife. Hell, he doesn't even want to share the same house, forget about the room, then what can I say to a servant?

"Send my stuff here and you may leave." I said walking towards the kitchen as I needed water to calm myself.

She nodded and left from there and I took a breath in relief.

I took a tour to check the whole area to know properly so it has a fully loaded kitchen with the stock-up refrigerator and a storeroom with laundry. My bedroom has a king-size bed with sofa,

TV & Nice walking closet and fully loaded bathroom. And let's not forget it has wi-fi as my lifeline.

I saw one door open and saw one more beautiful garden and a view of the swimming pool. I can go out directly using this door so I don't have to use the main door for my excess. And the keys

were giving me a clear indication saying this is the door I need to use.

I came back and saw my stuff was laying in the living room. I took my simple dress out as I want to get rid of this wedding dress as soon as possible.

After taking a warm relaxing shower I sat on the sofa and closed my eyes.

My whole life came in front of me***
