it was Dante "You're so quick I love that my wife is a runner" I tried to open the car door but it was locked.
"No need to worry my little Bride You belong to me now Let's finish our wedding and just so you know if you ever try to run away again you won't like the consequences" The driver started driving and eventually stopped at my aunt's place
As I stepped out of the car my aunt rushed towards me ready to hit me But Dante intervened and told her "You wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her She belongs to me now and I've had a talk with her Take her inside and get her all dressed up"
Elodie pulled me inside and started yelling at me "How dare you Why did you run away you... you know what I clearly warned you not to run away!"
I stayed silent as Elodie forcefully brought me inside She then turned to the makeup artist and said "Make sure she doesn't escape this time" After that she walked out of the room
I turned to the makeup artist"I'm sorry."
"I get it you didn't want to marry that old guy but you shouldn't have put that in my body"
I'm sorry" I said
As she fell Alina suddenly appeared and carried her laying her on the bed Then she turned to me her eyes turning the same blue as my mom's "Didn't I tell you not to run?"
"What am I?" I asked
"What are you talking about?" she replied
"Mum I can heal myself just by touching people I know things about them Whenever I talk it's like magic So what am I?" I yelled.
"Imogen, you're..." she started to say
" special girl, Don't give me that Mum Tell me the truth Am I a monster or a demon? Because I feel like I'm going crazy"
"You are not a monster or a demon"
"Then what am I?"
"You are Imogen, the great one You are special that's all I have to say"
"I knew you would tell me the truth Alright do I have powers?"
"sure you do"
"Of course I am a monster I have powers Humans don't have powers"
"You are not human Imogen"
"What? If I'm not human, then what am I?" I said
"When I first met your father I didn't know much about him I fell in love and married him without thinking It wasn't until I carried you in my belly that I discovered he wasn't human I nearly died because you were so strong and you fed on my energy Your father has the ability to talk and it will come to pass when you're born Your father's mom passed her power to you She said it's safe with you"
"So what do we call ourselves? We're not monsters or demons" I asked
"I don't know I've asked your father countless times which part of the world he comes from since he's not from the human world"
"So what kind of abilities do I have?" I asked
"You have the power to talk and it will come to pass You also have the ability to heal on your own You can look into people's past and future And the last ability you have is healing But mind you if you heal a person once, you can't heal them again Also you can't bring someone back from the dead That's why I always told you to be mindful of what you say when you're angry" she explained
"If Dad is not human then when did he die?" I asked
"I didn't want you to feel guilty that you caused our death. You said it that day 'Don't you ever return,' and it happened They can be killed by their own blood with words or anything But other people can easily kill them However that doesn't apply to you You can't be killed easily which is why I want you to be very careful"
"Mom can I make my second wish?"
"Sure you can" she replied
"I wish to find someone who loves me and treats me well"
"Granted Remember you only have one more wish left to make" she said and I nodded Her face changed back to brown
"Gosh what am I doing here? And you why did you run away huh?" she said hitting me
"I'm sorry I did" I said
"So, where is your makeup artist?" she asked and I pointed at her sleeping
"What? She's sleeping? She's supposed to dress you up Anyways I can do that for you" she said
She quickly ran to the bathroom to wash her hand but accidentally slipped and broke her hand "Ouch!"
I rushed to her side and gently held her hand "You should be more careful next time Let me take a look" I said
remembering my mom's words about my healing abilities I closed my eyes and focused then opened them again "How do you feel now?" I asked
"Wow I feel so much better Let's get to work"

I was taken to Dante's house and it was so huge, giant, and beautiful As I stepped into the house, my eyes widened and I noticed everything He already had three wives so why did he marry me then?
"Miss, come with me" the guard said and I followed him to a large room "Mr. Dante will be with you shortly" he said before walking out
Oh no he's coming I quickly jumped onto the bed and pulled the duvet over myself Just as I did I heard the door open and he climbed into bed beside me
"My little bride you can't sleep yet I must... um... experience your purity since your aunt mentioned you are a virgin,"
Oh how am I supposed to tell this old smelly man that I'm not a virgin for Pete's sake?
"can we do it tomorrow " I asked
no way so that you can run away no way" he said as he removed the duvet I scream but it was all in vain when he was done
He push me down from the bed "you cheap bitch"
"I apologize" I whispered
"Your punishment is decided no more school starting today Is that understood?" he shouted
"Please I'm begging you"
"There's no way around it, that's my final decision No more school for you, and I won't change my mind later It's definite no more school" he declared firmly
I began gathering my clothes from the ground before turning to make my exit
"Where the hell do you think you're going? You're not sleeping in your room because you're disgusting Get into that room" he angrily exclaimed
"What room?" I asked
"That room" he pointed to a nearby door I walked into the room but it was pitch dark He closed the door behind me and said "You'll be sleeping there tonight."
The room was so dark and cramped that I couldn't even sit or lie down It was incredibly small forcing me to stand throughout the night I couldn't help but wish I was at my aunt's place instead This place feels like hell to me and it made me burst into tears
