Y/N's POV~

Where am I? I'm so cold... Ugh... Is this blood? I looked around realizing I was in a cell which I assumed to be in a basement, I looked around a bit more to see someone outside of the cell. It was a guard, he was tall with a helmet over his head and a shiny sword at hand.

"Ah, your awake." He said with his deep voice.

"Uh... W-Who are you?" I asked.

"That isn't your concern... Lord Zane is."

"Lord Zane?..."

"Yes, he wants to speak with you."

The cell opened and the guard dragged me out then pulled me upstairs by my hair when we reached the top of the stairs he dragged me to a office where the guy that wanted garroth stood. Is this Zane?

"Hello, remember me? I am Lord Zane and you my dear will be my bride." The black haired man spoke.

Well question answered- "WAIT WHAT?!" I shouted out loud.

"Yes, now then guard take her to my mothers room and get her cleaned up." Zane ordered.

"Yes, sir." The guard nodded dragged me off.

As he dragged me out of the house I could see it was night, the village around me was so beautiful but the thought of being here made me feel sick knowing it was ruled by such a hateful human being. The guard eventually dragged me to a house and once inside I saw a black haired woman with green emerald eyes, she was actually very pretty...

"Hello, I'm lord Garte you must be my sons fiancé." A blonde haired man spoke, who looked much like Garroth but with a beard.

Your ok with your son's "fiancé" being dragged around by someone and being FORCED?

"Yes, I guess..." I kept calm.

"I'll go get her dressed nicely." The woman said taking my hand with a warm smile.

I got up slowly and followed her to a room, I was in pain from being dragged around. The woman lead me into a bathroom and ran a warm bath then added a few rose petals with some lit candles.

"You can go get undressed and hope in I'll leave this towel here and get you a nice outfit to wear." She smiled as she put down the white towel and walked out of the room closing it.

I got undressed and let my hair down then climbed into the bathtub, I thought of my escape. I'll pretend I like Zane and get close to this woman maybe will be able to get outside the wall and when we're alone I can run... Hmm... Hopefully it works.

"I'm back dear, are you finished?" The woman's voice said sweetly.

I quickly hopped out of the tub and put on a towel then opened the door.

"Do you feel much better?" She asked.

"Y-Yes... Thank you."

She handed me a (Color) dress with (Color) flat shoes then walked out and closed the door. I got changed and walked out of the bathroom.

"You look beautiful."

I sat down on a chair and she brushed my long (Hair Color) Hair, I moved my eyes around the room looking at my surroundings to see if I could get a weapon of some sort but the amount of guards I saw while being dragged here...

"Sweetie? Did my son force you into marriage?"

"He kidnapped me... I did this for my friend... Zane wanted him... I couldn't let that happen."

"Oh... I'm so sorry about my son... His father has just been-"

"Shut it!" A voice shouted as a door swung open.

"G-Garte..." The woman shook.

I turned my head around to look at him, I was afraid... I was unarmed and in a dress out of all things.

"Guards take this girl back to Zane!" He yelled as I heard footsteps running up the stairs.

Two guards grabbed my arms and took me back to Zane, he was sitting at his desk, I looked around a bit then noticed something... A man was on the floor with a sword in his back!

"D-Did you..."

"Why yes I did." He smirked, " I wouldn't run from me dear or this will be you."

Why can't I leave this living nightmare? Honestly I rather take the wolf...

"Guards take her to my room." He ordered.

They did as told, no surprise there. Once in his room they tied my wrists to a pole on the bed, I waited and waited until Zane walked in, the guards were long gone so it was just us.

"So did you like my mother and father?" He smirked.

"Yeah, yeah they were great. Now why am I here?"

"Ah, a girl that gets right to the point, marrying you might not be much of a burden after all even though the plan was to kill you after... Just stage a murder." He grinned.

"Answer. The. Question."

"Me-OW! This kitty is feisty. Anyways the reason I'm marrying you is because once the word gets around to Garroth he'll come running to save you."

I'll admit it isn't a dumb idea but Garroth doesn't really care for me I mean we just met and I haven't been very open about myself...

A few days later...

I woke up in Zane's bed, Zane was gone already like usual, then his mother, Zianna was in the doorway.

"Hello sweetie, I brought you some clothes, would you like to go outside the walls and to this lovely field?" She smiled.

"Yes! That sounds beautiful actually! Maybe we could pick some flowers for the wedding?"

"What a great idea! Meet me outside after changing!" She said as she left after leaving the dress on a chair.

I picked up the dress and changed my clothes then fixed my hair, I stared into the mirror as I thought of a way to sneak off. I thought of something but I needed to see the layout of the field first so I walked out of Zane's room and outside to Zianna. I followed her out of the back gate with two guards following us, she lead me to the field with a patch of flowers where she sat down, I looked around. There was a hill then behind it was a dark forest, behind us was O'kasis, to the left and right of us was more forest, I leaned against a tree that was quite big and shaded most of the flowers. I noticed some bushes when I heard a rustling noise so I walked over to the bush, something grabbed me and pulled me behind a tree covering my mouth.

"I'm here to save you." The voice spoke.
