Fate is nasty thing (Bal)

Chapter 17

Evans P.O.V

Oh shit. I just hit Mal. Why did I do that? More importantly, Why don't I feel guilty.
"You. You. You, hit me" Mal whimpered, holding her cheek. I hit her hard to. I wouldn't be surprised if her cheek was black and blue tomorrow.
"I'm sorry." I stated, staring at her. I saw the fear in her eyes, as she slowly backed away.
"You will not tell anyone." I commanded. She turned her back to me. DON'T IGNORE ME. Thwack. Evan stop hitting her! And this one was right on her back. "One more time" she turned back around with even more fear in her eyes, "You will not tell anyone." I stared her in the eyes.
"I will not tell anyone." She repeated.
"You will cover whatever bruises are to come." I said fiercely.
"I will cover it." She again repeated.
"If anyone asks, the date was perfect"
"It was perfect."
I looked down at her slightly trembling hands. She was twisting the ring.
"You will always keep the ring on. Never take it off. For anything." I sneered. Her hands dropped to her sides.
"I will not take the ring off." She repeated. I have actually have the power now. This us amazing! It works.

Ben's P.O.V

Where is everyone? Except for the servants and the cooks, and all the other people, This place is like a ghost town. I can't find Evie. Jay is gone. and Carlos isn't in his room, like he always is. Audrey and I have been talking and we have decided to wait another month. We don't want to rush into things. As king I know I have to be married, but I just wish it was to... her. Also Audrey doesn't have a Dress yet. Well she did but now "it's not Chic enough".
Evie walked pass me. With her hands pulling her hair.
"EVIE!" I shouted as she ran past. She looked back. And walked back to me.
"Hey Ben." She said in a stressed out voice.
"Is everything ok?" I asked.
"Yeah sure perfect." A fake laugh followed.
"Evie?" She looked back at me not know what to sag next.
"No!" I shouted, "everything is not ok."
"What's wrong." I asked her. She looked around.
"Come with me." I grabbed her hand and pulled her. We arrived at my room. I closed the door and staged her to the end of my bed and we say down.
"Now, tell me what's wrong." She proved her lips together and took w breath. She mumbled something.
"What?" Again she mumbled. "Louder"
"I think I love Doug!" She blurred out. I just looked at her. "SAY SOMETHING"She shouted.
"I don't understand... Why is this bad?" She scuffed.
"Your kidding me right." She shook her head.
"No."
"I can't love anyone. We can't love. That isn't who we are. Our minds weren't programmed to love where we come from." I looked at her for a second. Soaking in what she just said.
"And what about your heart?"
"What?" She asked, taken back by thy question.
"One the isle you guys weren't taught what love was, never mind how live felt. You have to listen to your heart on this one. Because, your heart wasn't programmed like your brain. It has a mine of its own. And you need to feel what it wants. There is no right or wrong." She sat there, being taken back from my words, again.
"I can't tho." Her voice cracking. "I was raised to believe that is doesn't matter to have brains, that no Ike wants to be with a smart person. That beauty was the only thing that mattered. But with Dough, he doesn't make me feel that way."
"Why is this bad." She gave me the death stare. "We don't love! That is not what we do. We can't. We aren't sappy. We don't have ultimate feelings. We are evil."
"But, true love only happens once. Are you really gonna pass it up for the wrong reasons?" We sat there. Neither of us knowing what to say. She looked over me, at the picture on my night stand. She got up, And picked it up.
"Is that what happened here. Did you fall in love for the wrong reason?" She wondered. Taking her hand off the back of the frame. And letting the picture of Mal and I fall to the floor. She looked at me, slowly bending over to pick up the picture. Evie looked at me with a confused look on her face.
"No." I answered. "She wasn't the one I fell in love with"
