CLARA : The Unwanted Bride (Updating Slowly)

Chapter 8

Clara's P. O.V

When we were through with the vows and the exchange of rings,
" You may kiss the bride" came out of the priest's mouth and a shiver of fear ran through my spine. As Alex removing my veil I started to sweat with fear written all over my face. He bends his head a little aiming for my lips. In response I close my eyes thinking maybe it wasn't such a bad thing to get my first kiss from Alex. But it never came instead I his breath near my earlobe, then I heard his voice say "Welcome to your hell dear wifey." With that my eyes shot open full of fear while looking at Alex , he then bends to my ear again and say " Now smile or else I won't hesitate to cancel this stupid arrangement so act normal."

Hearing that I put on one of my best fake smile but fear still there and tears flowing from my cheeks. To the guest it looked like tears of joy. Shame they have no idea that I am living in torture. After the ceremony we went for photoshoot, then straight to the reception and we were greeted by cheers from the guests. We dine while receiving the congrats messages.

Alex disappeared without a word as soon as people were occupied with food and music. Minutes later I saw him standing hold a beautiful brunette in his arms on the balcony of one guestrooms. When they saw me the girl who I assume to Belinda came up to me and said " Well well if it's not the slut who thought she could take Alex away from me using her lies. Well you thought wrong bitch. Now welcome to your living hell." Before I could react her hand came across my face.
"A little gift for your wedding bitch." She said.

With that I left with tears flowing from my eyes before Alex and his lover hurt me again. I went into another guest suite and cleared my tears and applied some make-up.

After about thirty minutes I went back to the party and I saw Alex with his parents acting like nothing happened. I the head straight to they were because I didn't want anyone suspecting anything. " Are are you okay dear. You have been away for a long time that's why I ask." Alice asked with a questioning look. Before I could answer " She's fine mom. Right wifey?" I just nodded. He then put his hands tightly on my waist, he bends his head and say "Act like you are happy and smile. Don't give me a reason to punish you today dear wifey." With that fear creeped in me and then I quickly cover it with a fake smile.
