Just As We Were Married (COMPLETED)

Chapter Seven

It's been almost two weeks now since Marinette has been with Nathaniel and she hated him with every fiber of her being.

He'd make awful comments about Adrien and it'd anger her so much that she wanted to choke him.

Two days ago she ended up trying to choke him and was held down by several guards. They took her back down to the room where she had stayed the first time she came and chained her to a wall. No bed.

They came three times a day and gave her a single glass of water then left.

She was so hungry.

Her arms hurt from being held up for so long and she felt so dirty and tired.

Her stomach let out a loud growl and she groaned.

The door of the room creaked open and a familiar nursemaid slipped in with her hands behind her back.

"I was ordered to come give you your water," Juleka said as she stooped down in front of the princess.

Marinette nodded and Juleka put glass to her lips. Marinette drank the water eagerly and Juleka looked at her with pity in her eyes.

When the water was all gone, Juleka removed it from Marinette's lips.

"Here's a piece of bread, eat it quickly," Juleka said putting the bread to Marinette's lips.

Marinette was ecstatic to see at least something close to food, so she quickly gulped it down.

After finishing the bread, Juleka stood and Marinette let out a small burp.

"Thank you," Marinette said to the nursemaid who smiled and nodded before rushing out of the room.

In another room Nathaniel paced back and forth, his finger tangled in his red hair out of frustration.

He felt horrible.

He locked the love of his life up in a room, chained her to a wall and gave her absolutely no food.

He wanted to march down there now to unlock her and hold her into his arms while she cried on his chest telling him how sorry she is.

'No,' He shook his head as a way of trying to get rid of those thoughts.

She deserved this. She tried to choke him. And he didn't even do anything wrong. He remembered exactly what he said before Marinette got angry and tried to kill him.

"Adrien was forcing himself on you! That explains the hickeys that I saw on your neck when we danced at the Ball. I don't know how he forced you to marry him. Maybe he threatened your family's life. He looks like such a damn rapist. Good thing I took you from him."

Nathaniel thought it over before shaking his head. Of course he didn't do anything wrong, everything he said was true!

Nathaniel's phone rang, breaking him away from his thoughts.

He pulled it out of his pocket and answered it.

"Hello,"

"Nathaniel," A familiar voice whined and let out a grown.

"What do you want?"

"Can I go through with the plan now? I'm sick and tired of waiting!"

"Can't you wait a little while longer?"

"I don't want to! You're there having fun with the Princess Bïtch and I'm here by myself! I want to have fun with the Prince, but I can't do that until you give the go ahead,"
