The King And Beta Daughter

Ready?

Previously-

In that instant, my heart broke. There was no way to escape his ways. Not in this castle. Must I give in to this man. Must I become just another number?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I excused myself properly from the room before making my way to the right bedroom. I didn't want to be heartbroken. But I was. I couldn't control it. It was like I had been blind for a long time and could finally see.

No. I refuse. It is only the mate pull. He has done nothing to make me want him.

I didn't sleep for what felt like forever that night. When I woke up I had tear stains on my cheeks. Alice and Sasha were going to kill me. Especially on the day of my wedding.

I wiped myself up best I could as I heard a door opening and Alice laughing.

"Hey there's the bride to be-wait what happened to your face?"

"No! Not my beautiful canvas! Why do you do this to me goddess?" Sasha dramatically complained.

"Ha ha... sorry" I half heartedly apologised.

They looked at each other and then tried to move on. Sasha did my hair while Alice did the base layer of my makeup. She handed over to Sasha for the tricky parts and moved to shaving my legs.

I looked blankly at both of them. I didn't want a wedding. Not yet. I wanted love first. But I was here. I had to do this. Just make it through life.

"Done." I hear as I stand and walk to my dress.

I hear a knock on the door followed by a reassuring-

"Sweetie?"

"Come in mum" I call out to her.

She comes in and her hands fly to her mouth. She reaches out for me and I walk to her.

"My baby is so beautiful" she cries. I roll my eyes.

"Sorry baby. I came to give you your something old. It's just a pair of earrings your great great grandfather made for your great great grandmother. Nothing expensive or great but definitely old." She explained as she handed me a gorgeous pair of wooden earrings.

I put them in and hugged my mother again. I then got in my dress and left my room to meet my father at the chapel.

I saw him and he looked at me proudly.

"I know you don't want to do this, but I'm proud of you. You look gorgeous and you will be a great queen to everyone." He whispered before turning to face the door.

The music started and I made a quick prayer in my head before whispering.

"Here we go..."
