I stare at my reflection on the mirror. The wedding planner was right I am a beautiful happy bride. Am I? It's supposed to be my happiest day but I am not. I am marrying the man my parents said can help us in our lives.
Let me go through the story.
My parents were rich business people well my father was. He was so dedicated in his work I don't remember us suffering from anything. Anything Anna and I wanted we got with the snap of our hands. We lived like princesses. My parents had a mansion and many cars then things started to change. Anna and I were playing one day and I accidentally used an icle object to hit her head. That made her unconscious and it became serious because it affected her brain and it required money. When we thought money was not a problem my dad's business got burnt. The whole building and this made him loose a lot. He needed money for Anna's health and our welfare. They managed to get money but what I didn't know was where they got the money. When Anna was 15 and I was 18 they both realised that they needed to act fast so they proceeded to travel to a country in the east to do some small business because my father claimed his grandfather had left him a small business which was already a great business. They never returned from that trip and it was assumed they had died because the boat they took never returned. As Anna and I were recovering from this, Hans came in saying that our father made a deal with his father and in order to pay back he had to marry one of us. Anna was already dating him so she was willing but he was abusive to her so she ran away and came back 7 years later with her husband she married 2 years before . I had no problem because he was a good guy. So it meant I had to marry Hans.
I sigh and I move when I hear the door opening. I'm not ready.
"Heyy." I hear when I see Anna. Whew I was not that ready.
"Heyy." I reply back
"Elsa you don't have to do this." She says and looks at my dress. I must say this dress is quite expensive. Hans' parents really have money.
"Anna I have to. This is to pay the money mom and dad owed Hans. And besides Hans said when we get money he will send money to you." I say and move to take my bouquet.
"He's lying. He's a devil Elsa. You don't want to know anything about him." She tries to get me to understand.
"Anna! Even if I don't I have no choice. It's this way or we're dead. You're heavily pregnant and trust me Kristoff's job as a coffee maker in someone's shop won't help." I say and try to make a point.
"I know but trust me Kristoff and I have planned to help you run away." She says with tactics .
"Run away and know that you're going to bring my niece or nephew in a poor habitat? Make mom and dad regret in their sleep ? No Anna I am marrying him no matter what." I say and look at her face.
"Els..." she starts to say but the door opens and it's the Wedding Planner.
"It's time!!!!" She shrieks as she drags me out.
"I'm sorry Anna." I say as I take one last look at her. I see her having tears in her eyes.
We walk to the chapel. I can see it's crowded. The bridal team had already gone in so I was to come last. The wedding planner made sure my dress is perfect. She adjusted my veil a bit and made my bouquet a bit fluffed. I start to walk down the isle when the wedding March plays. I see Anna in the crowd crying and I smile uneasily to her. I see Hans in the front and he smirks at me. I make it to the front and the music stops and the priests starts.
"Dearly beloved we are all gathered here to witness the marriage ceremony between two lovely people in holy matrimony. Let's start with the vows shall we but before I do so is there anyone here who is against the wedding if so say now or forever hold your peace." He says.
The place became quiet and you can hear someone sobbing. I bet it's Anna.
"Okay. Do you Mr Hans Isles take Miss Elsa Arens to be your lawfully wedded wife in truth, in poverty and wealth, in sickness and health, in children and barrenness, in happiness and sadness till death do you both part?" He asks Hans.
"I do." Hans says with no emotion.
"And do you Miss Elsa Arens take Mr Hans Isles to be your lawfully wedded husband in truth, in poverty and wealth, in sickness and health, in children and barrenness, in happiness and sadness till death do you both part?" He asks me.
I looked at Anna and she shook her head vigorously to tell me no. I look at Hans and he glares at me. I look back at Anna and smile with tears in my eyes. I look at the priest.
"I-I-I-I do." I say
"We now shall receive the rings. And may God bless these rings. Exchange the rings." He says and hands us the rings.
Hans and I take the rings I slowly and shakingly slide it through his finger. Whilst he roughly pulls my hand and forces the ring to slid my finger. I try to help but I have to act normal. The priest goes on and then starts to say a prayer in a different language. He uses insence on us and starts.
"With the power invested in me I pronounce you Husband and Wife. You may kiss the bride." He says .
Hans smirks at me. He comes closer and whispers in my ears.
"You're my now!"
I gasp and he roughly pushes me and kisses me roughly. I feel like I made a terrible mistake.
The wedding reception was to be special a night for me but it was not so. Our first dance as a couple was a disaster. Hans kept stepping on my foot intentionally. He even ripped my train. People thought he didn't do it intentional but I know he did. I had some 10 minutes to talk to my family but Anna was already sad she left the wedding right after the service. So I sat in the limousine and awaited my fate. As usual Hans was chilling out with friends.
At his house or should I say mansion
We were to leave for our honeymoon that instant so when we arrived at his mansion, he left me in the car. I had to get out and when I even went to the house it was locked. Great. I knocked several times but no one opened. It took 4 hours later when the butler opened it. Ofcourse he apologized but I know it's not his fault. I was escorted to the room I will share with him when I saw him. He was wearing his wedding suit.
"WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU!" He yelled at me.
"YOU LOCKED ME OUTSIDE REMEMBER!" I yelled back. I'm quite sure that the servants heard that.
"I DID NOT! NOW GET READY TO PACK SOME STUFF! WE'RE LEAVING TO HAWAII FOR OUR HONEYMOON!" He yelled and held my wrist and threw me to the bed.
"I don't want to go to any honeymoon with you.!" I said as I got up and touched my wrist. I didn't see it coming before I felt it. He slapped me. I looked at him.
"Now you listen to me young woman. I married you to submit to me. And I will not allow you to disrespect me. If you want peace do as I say or else."
With that he left the room with his suitcase. I looked at the mirror to see a print. I started to head to the bathroom and cover it with makeup. It worked a bit but it looked like I used my face to hit a metal object. I started to pack as crying as well. When I was done I went downstairs and the servants took my bag. I sat in the car with him and kept quiet. I looked outside through the car window and thought what I mistake I had done.
