Chapter 6 ~ Scared Bride

*CATHY'S POV *

I was staring at him from behind the bathroom door and his eyes caught me.

"Are you done with your shower?" He asked me. I nodded. He looked at me for a while and then sighed. "You aren't planning to stand there the whole night right?" He was irritated.

I stepped out of the bathroom and crossed my hands near my stomach. He was scary and I can feel him getting more and more annoyed by me.

Should I say something? I don't know what he is thinking. He just staring at me. Did he realized I am not that pretty and he made a mistake?

Alexander stood up closed the distance between us by pressing me against a wall. His face was slowly coming towards mine and I closed my eyes. I waited for few seconds but nothing happened. I opened my eyes slowly to see he was breathing heavily, his eyes were soft but the stern expression on his face was still there.

"Are you okay ?" He asked me.

What? Am I okay? No, I am not. I am scared. The answer was in my head but I didn't had the strength to speak out. I don't want to upset him. He pushed himself away from me and stood in centre of the room. "Take off your clothes."

I looked at him in shock. "If you don't want to do this tell me I will leave." He said softly.

I..I am not dreaming right? I am not good in this I want to tell him but I can't say it. He might lock me up or tell my father so he can beat me. He was waiting for my reply, I put my hands above my chest and trembled. "I-I am scared."   My voice cracked.

"I will not do anything until you are comfortable. I will be in my office near my room on the opposite side." He said gesturing from the opened door of my room. "If you need anything you can come to me." He smiled at me and left the room shutting the door behind.

I was still leaning against the wall not knowing what happened. Was he mad? Should I have said yes to him? He didn't even beat me like my Dad whenever I failed to listen to his commands.

My stomach was growling but I didn't dare to go outside. It was still evening I was also sleepy from the whole incident so I just slept.
