soul of beauty part 3

One day the young girl walked out of the small house with a bright smile on her face as she held on to her mother's hand. They walked towards the town as the father prepared for the daughters big day.

He hid an axe near the front door and sweat covered his hands as his hawk like eyes looked around the area that surrounded the house. A loud knock suddenly came on the front door and a chill went down his spin.
He walked towards the door and grabbed onto the handle. On the other side he saw what he feared the most. The tree stranger once again stood there and spell-bound he led them into the house.

"Please sit down, I will get some tea" he said as sweat covered his hands. A sigh came from the man in a white robe as he said "that won't be necessary we only came to get what you owe". The farmer bite his lips and walked out into the kitchen and said "I am sorry but I don't have the money to pay you back".

He grabbed onto the axes and hid it behind his back and walked towards the tree men. A cruel laugh came from the man in black leather as he said "you think that we want your money". The farmers wrinkled his nose as he looked towards them dumbfounded.

A soft smile was one the man with cloaks face as he uttered "we want back what we gave to you". The farmer stood frozen on the spot as a soft knock came on the house door and his walked into the house with his daughter behind her.

"Dear who are these people" the mother said while holding tightly onto the daughter's hand. The angel like figure walked closer to the mother and said "we have come to get something your husband borrowed".

She looked confused and said "alright dear hand it over to these gentlemen, we need to celebrate or daughter birthday". The man in leather said "alright come over here Alma you are coming with us". The mother pushed the girl behind her and said, "What are you talking about she is my daughter".

The man in a cloak said "You husband begged us to save your life and your child and in return we would get whatever we wanted after 16 years". Tears formed in her eyes as she muttered "dear tell me that's not true".
"I am sorry I had no other choice" the husband said and glared at the tree men. The man in white grabbed onto the daughters hand and placed a kiss on it and her cheeks became a bright pink. The farmer yelled out "I won't let you have my daughter without give a fight". He took forth the axe and ran towards the man in white.
