Opening her eyes slowly she blinked a few times still basically asleep until she could finally see and think,
She looked around not recognising the room she was in.

She looked over to a corner and saw her dress and that's when all the memories came back to her,
She groaned in defeat hoping her wedding had been a dream.

On her left finger was a diamond ring and her veil was still on the bed, it's large lace material covered her and she looked down to see herself in her undergarments making her alarmed.

She hoped nothing had happened last night but couldn't remember perhaps her mind had gone fuzzy from the long celebrations that took place yesterday.

She heard the door knob rattling and turning and quickly laid back down pretending to be asleep.

The door opened and footsteps started coming towards the bed making her nerves worse.

She felt a hand on pushing her hair strands away from her face and her breath got more shaky, she was sure that it was him.

He got up from the bed and pulled the blanket up covering her with it before leaving the room making her sigh in relief.

She took a moment to realise what her life had just become of now, she was in the house of the man she hated the most and had no way of getting out.

Closing her eyes a year escaped and fell down her face and she felt hopeless and alone, she had nothing and no one to turn to.

Eventually she fell asleep again she didn't want to face anyone or anything so she decided to sleep her problems away.

She woke up to a warm cloth touching her face making her gasp and open her eyes, she blinked a few times and could now see servants around her bed looking at her.

"Oh thank goodness you're alive!" One of them said making her furrow her eyebrows, how could she be dead when she had a heartbeat, what horrible education he gives his servants she thought.

"Who are you." She asked still tired and half asleep.

"Well it's pretty obvious that we're the masters servants, anyways come on down for dinner masters calling you." One of them scoffed and walked away.

"N-no I'm not hungry, please leave me be." She said laying back down.

"Alright but masters not going to be happy." They said and walked out before closing the door.

The truth was that she was starving she hadn't eaten much at the wedding either so she would kill for a meal now but not with him.

She sat up and looked around the room and saw a window bay making her sigh in relief, at least she could sit and look outside while stuck in here.

She wrapped the blanket around herself and walked towards the window bay sitting down while looking outside.

The scenery was much different from what she was used to, it was quite foggy and grey and filled with dark green forests and mountains.

She had hoped there'd at least be a nice garden for her to spend her time in but all hope she once had was now crushed.

Suddenly she heard the door open and someone walk in, she turned her head only to see him standing there angrily with a bowl of soup in his hand.

"When I tell you I want to see you, you listen and come see me!" He yelled making her flinch as her grip on the blanket tightened.

He put the bowl down on the table and started walking to her as she backed away.

"No please I-I'm sorry!" She yelled afraid of what he'd do to her.

He grabbed her jaw making her face turn towards his as their faces were now extremely close to each other.
