Present time
As I was walking down the aisle, I placed the smile that fooled everyone on my face . I looked around in the gigantic church to see absolutely no one except for the priest ,Dominick and his best man Zayn which I never liked .
Where the hell is everyone? Didn't he say that millions are going to be attending our wedding?
Dominick took my hand , smiling devilishly at me . His soft face disappeared and was replaced by an evil smirk . I gulped the lump that formed in my throat due to nervousness ,as I tried to smile again, but this time I failed. I felt like I got trapped and there was no going back .
"W-where is everybody Nick ?" I asked him as I looked at the priest, who was silently watching us , as his best mate Zayn was placing the same devilish smirk .
"My sweet fiancee, I decided that guests are not necessary at all . We could get married without them am I right ? I mean you already fooled the groom , were you planning to fool the guests too? " . His laugh sent shivers down my skin as I felt my hands burning from his touch. He was tightening his hold on my arms to the point that I winced a few times, but he didn't care .
At that instant, I knew that I was caught. I knew that I was screwed for real now . I tried to push away from him but he grapped my upper arms and whispered in my ear. " And now , you're going to marry me like the little lovely girl you are . Understood?" .
"N-no you can't o-order me to do such thing . I am sorry this won't happen again, l-let me just l-leave". And before I could hear his comment, I was quick to head to the church's doors ,finally getting my freedom back .
Not a second later he was in front of me , blocking my way as he locked the church's doors. "Let's get married princess ". He smirked as he again, dragged me near the priest.
"Priest , you shall begin ". As soon as he said those words the priest began with the vows and the rings . I cried during the wedding as I had to choke some words out . My words weren't clear due to my sobs and cries and I had to repeat the vows several times to make myself heard clearly.
"Do you Dominick Gerard O'Sullivan take Grace Lorraine Williams as your lawful wedded wife to live together in marriage?" The priest finally asks .
"I do" . His cold voice echoed in the large church. His voice, clearly told me that I was never getting out of this . Never.
"Do you Grace Lorraine Williams take Dominick Gerard O'Sullivan as your lawful wedded husband to live together in marriage?" . It's like time suddenly stopped, everything stopped moving and I felt like the air taking my breath away , leaving me soulless, empty. I am already soulless.
"I don't " . I shouted, suprised how I got my voice so fast .
"She does ". Dominick stated confidently. I shook my head and was about to refuse again but his words made me immediately stop my movements. " I will send you to jail and you will never be able to get out if you don't marry me now" .
With a defeated look I mumbled those few words that I never thought would be so cruel and evil . "I-I do" .
"You have exchanged your promises and given and received the rings in the presence of God . By the power invested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride ". As soon as the priest finished the last sentence, I got held by the waist and crashed into cold yet soft lips . He began to kiss me possessively, eating and biting my lips causing blood to ooze from my once soft lips .
"N-no g-get away from m-me" . I managed to shout between his cold lips .
"And now you will forever be mine . I am going to destroy you and make you regret the day you ever looked at me" . He threatened. When I managed to remove my hands from his , bruises were the first thing I saw . Both wrists were covered in red and black marks , making my eyes tear up at the sight.
Two hours later , I was already in his villa surrounded by cold air . Servants and maids were working without giving me a second glance , looks of disgust were evident in their eyes and I am pretty sure that they know the truth by now . I couldn't help but think of what he would do when he knows the whole truth. He will kill me and that's for sure and I wish, this day would never come.
"Lamya , please put Grace's clothes in her new bedroom ". A girl around my age came as soon as she heard her name and bows to him . I wonder how powerful he is .
"Follow me miss". The girl leads me to a long hall and opens the last room on this floor . She takes my clothes and foldes them neatly without a sound.
"Uhm w-why did I get the last room ? There are more than ten other rooms on this floor". I asked curiously.
"Miss , it's the same floor as maids and this was the only available room ". She finishes and leaves me alone in my room . He placed me on the same floor as maids . No wonder why no one respects me in this house . But I don't mind , these rooms are comfier than what I am used to .
I immediately called Luana , already crying again and waiting to tell me that she's going to get me out of this . That no one could ever hurt me .
"Hey , so did you drug him yet? I bet you did !" A cheery voice sounded on the phone. I cried as soon as I heard her and the tears wouldn't stop coming.
"L-luana I am doomed . He caught me good this time ". I started but immediately got cut off .
"Wait , what do you mean? What happened Hazel?" . She questioned, now her voice was worried and I cursed myself for that. If someone should be cursed for life ,it should be me and not her .
"H-he knows half of the truth n-now . Apparently he heard us talking and forced me to marry him or he will send me to jail". I managed to say between my cries. I thought that this was going to work so easily, but I thought wrong. I shouldn't have messed with him .
"W-hat? Hazel are you okay? Did he hurt you? If he did I swear to God I will kill him right now !" . I am sure now her hands were already formed to fists, and her face all reddish .
"N-no he didn't. He just forced me to marry him and I am currently sitting in one of the maid's room". I said , too exhausted to cry anymore. I don't think I ever cried that much since then .
"I will try to get you out of this . I can't fly to Scotland ,we're so out of money and if we don't get any , any time soon we would be officially done !" .
"B-but I can't tell him about Malawi ! He would know that our place isn't even legal to raise children and he will directly put us in jail ! I won't let this happen, he won't know ! I will figure something out, don't worry ". I exclaimed, standing up from the chair that I was sat on .
"Look , I am worried so damn much about you and I wouldn't be able to raise all these kids without you . You have to stay in Scotland until I figure something out okay?" She asks.
I sighed and said a simple yes , before hanging up. Not a second later, I was already drifting into a deep slumber.
If only I could drift into darkness and never come back again. That's what I hoped for right now .
