Her Husband

Chapter 2

"Where is my dad?" I ask turning a bit to look behind him, he is huge and can hide humans behind him

"Doens't matter, lets go"

"But he is supposed to walk me down the aisle"

"Yeah but he slapped you so lets go, this isn't so traditional anyways"

"Can I have my mom walk me?" I ask spotting her

"sure whatever" he said

"Maaaa" I yell

She walks over with a smile on her face, she is my sweetheart, she is so sweet, honestly she is the only one who kept me alive

"You look beautiful sweetie"

"Thanks ma, you look perfect, prettier than me might I add" she smiles kissing my head

"Your father"

"It doesn't matter ma, can you walk me down the aisle please?" I ask interrupting her

"Nandini darling I wish I could but you know how he would react" I sigh nodding

"He won't, walk her down the aisle" the man says, is it weird I don't even know his name, ya call me stupid

my mom seemed very very hesitant and I know exactly why, it scares me to know I won't be here and what could happen to her.

"Walk her down the aisle and I promise you nothing will happen, ill take care of it" he man says again, maybe he sensed our little eye contact

"Ma" I whisper

"Lets get my sweet daughter married" she says smiling

"Maaa I love you" I mumble hugging her

"2 minutes" the man says leaving

"Should I make a run for it?" I ask my ma

"Don't think about running" I hear the man before he turned a corner

i groan at his words but my mom chuckles making me pout

"He isn't a bad man" she says

"He is forcing me to get married to him" I say

"It's because he needs a wife"

"And I am giving up on my life because?" I ask

"Because of two reasons, sweetheart, I know this isn't your fault and you shouldn't be in this spot. Alia actually wanted to marry him but you don't and I understand 100% but she ran away. I didn't want this for you but your father"

"It's okay ma, forget it"

She kissed my head and opened the door as we walked down the aisle, I saw my father in a corner glaring at us but the huge man said he wouldn't let anything happen so I'm trusting him

As we walk down, my eyes wouldn't leave the huge man, he stood there looking right back at me, his glance is different from anything I have ever seen. His jaw looked hardened and his expressions let me know he was bored

"Please take care of my daughter" ma whispers to

"I will, I promise you Martha, I will" he says and for the first time I like him

When my mom placed my hand in his, I kind of blacked everything else out, it didn't matter except when the human asked me if I take him as my husband

"I do" I whisper

"Do you manik malhotra take nandini murhty to be your wife, to have and to hold, through sickness and health, through rich and poor"

Ohh so his name is manik, not bad, nice name
