I was being carried to his room by his cousins and as soon as I enter the room, they closed the door behind me, leaving both of us alone in the room. I turned back to face him. He had changed his clothes and wore an extremely sharp and professional tuxedo, suiting his personality. He turns towards me, after he is done getting ready, staring directly into my eyes and a shiver runs down my spine. He took slow steps towards me, keeping the eye lock intact, making me nervous.
He stopped a few centimeters away from me, still keeping that eye contact, he said in his deep authoritative voice.
"This is your life from now on. You will be free to do whatever you want, free to go wherever you want, free to buy whatever you want...in short you will have the freedom you always desired, just two conditions, one, you'll always look after my Jaan, she can never even have a tear in her eyes because of you and if that happens, you can't even think what am I capable of doing to you. Second, you'll always come back here, from wherever you are, in the end. If you agree to these conditions, I will fund your every dream and desire. Outside this room, for the rest of the world, we are a couple everyone should be jealous of, but inside this room we are nothing."
"You should have thought twice before marrying me, but since you have, you shall now bear the consequences as well"
He leaned a bit to hover my face with his, but again stopping a few centimeters away from mine, making me gulp from fear.
"You'll never be able to be my wife completely, neither I'll accept you as one. You'll never have me and I'll never touch you."
