Love has a Price

Chapter 10

(Vera's POV)

My eyes widened in shock. Wife? Who does he think he is? who does he think I am?

"Wife?"

"Did I not speak loud enough? I said You'll be my wife."

I clenched my jaw. He's so rude. 

"I refuse"

He looked over at me then walked over so he was directly in front of me. He was a whole 5 inches taller then me having to look down at me as he did. He slowly grinned grabbing my hand roughly. I tried to pull away but it was useless he was strong. This only widened his grin angering me further. 

"Why? because I didn't do it properly?"

He bent down onto one knee. He placed a hand on his chest and he held mine. He was cocky and I didn't appreciate it. He cleared his throat and spoke in a serious tone his eyes burning into mine all the jokes and grins where gone.

"Will you Vera Longheart be mine? Be my wife? Be my queen?"

My jaw dropped slightly. Could I? I am an angel but who do I have to go back to? I'm not taken already. But I could be. Maybe this is why I was alone. Because he was waiting for me here. 

"Well, Miss Longheart?"

I narrowed my eyes. I'm an idiot. Why would he be waiting for me?

"No"

He looked at me shocked as I swiped my hand back. I turned away and walked to the door. Just as I got to the doors they slammed shut. I gasp and turned to look at him. He stood and looked at me a hand on his hip.

"That was quite rude. When did you get such courage? I remember a different scared little angel that lied under me wanting to play a game."

  My eyes widened, Remembering the first time meeting him. I gripped my hand into a fist hating myself for being so naive. He grabbed my arm and spun me around making my back slam against the door his hand planted next to my face on the door.  His face was dark and angry.

"So, Being the kind man I am I'll let you rethink your answer. Will you marry me, Vera Longheart?"

I looked away averting my eyes. He sighed sliding his hand off the door.

"Why do you decline me so harshly? You don't seem to be bothered by me being a demon. Is there another up there in your little paradise? Has someone already....claimed you?"

"That is none of your business."

"It is my business. I will not have someones sloppy seconds understand?"

My head snapped to him. He saw this and grinned

"I'm sorry, was that rude~?"

"You are unbelievable!"

 "I know right? I'm so hot its unreal~"

My jaw dropped. I pushed him away and opened the door walking out.
