Chapter 21

The intense look in his eyes made my body shiver. His eyes were filled with darkness now, he had pinned my body on the bench and he was on top of me, I couldn't move but I wanted to run away from this man so badly. I could here the voice in the back of my head telling me to run for my life, but if I decided to run then where would I go. It didn't matter because I knew damn well that this man would hunt me down and find me. "May-Maynard... Please get off of me..."I said. Even my voice was shaking. He gave me a wicket smile and then he kissed me forcefully. Was this guy planning on raping me or something? The last thing I wanted was to be traumatized for the rest of my life because I was raped by my soon to be husband. I could feel myself slowly losing my breath so I decided to bite him and he stopped kissing me putting his hand over his mouth where I but him. "Did you just bite me?" He asked me. Oh God I knew that I had crossed the line here and I was going to pay dearly for it. "I'm so sorry Maynard I didn't mean to do it."I said, which was actually a lie because I meant to do it but now I was regretting it."So it just happened, is that what you are trying to tell me?" He asked me and I could tell that he was pissed off and the look that he was giving me... Was really scary, if looks could kill I would probably be dead by now. "No... I... You kissed me forcefully and I was just..." Before I could finish my sentence he cut me off. "... You were just trying to fight back. Really? Emma you've got the guts to bite me huh? If you have the guys to bite me I'm sure that you also have the guts to face your punishment." He said. And I looked at him with horror in my eyes, I couldn't even think about what punishment I would get. I hope that he wasn't going to lock me up in some dark place and toture me."What punishment?" I asked him. My voice was shaking. "You'll get your punishment after the wedding when my parents have left... For now just enjoy your little freedom and make sure to do everything that is on your bucket list because once we get married I won't let you step out of this house." He said. "What, you can't do that to me." I said. "Watch me." He said getting up from the bench and walking back into the house. Was this guy serious, why on earth would my parents sell me to this man. I had to find a way to escape him, but if I escaped then where would I go. If I went back to my parents' place then he would obviously come for me. So I had nowhere to go. Maybe I should just wait, every cloud has a silver lining right? Well I hope mine does.

After twenty minutes of sitting on the bench I decided to go back into the house because the air was starting to get cool. Even though I was afraid of Maynard now, I had no choice but to live with him. I opened the bedroom door and I saw Maynard seating on the bed reading a book. It was almost 1am and he wasn't sleeping yet. Does this guy ever sleep, whatever it's non of my business anyway. I went into his closet and I took a blue blanket. I was planning on sleeping on the couch because there was no way in hell I would sleep on the same bed with him after he had showed me his true colours.

I walked out of the closet and then u I walked to where the couch was. "What are yiu doing?" He said. "Uhm... I want to sleep on the couch tonight." I said. "Did I say that you should sleep on the couch?" He asked me. "N-no." I said looking down on the floor. "Then why do you want to sleep on the couch?" He asked me. "I-I just... I just want to sleep on it, that's all." I said. I couldn't come up with a better excuse. "You are not allowed to sleep on the couch even when I'm not home. Come, sleep on the bed." He said. I had no choice but to do as he said because I seriously did not want to piss him off, not today, not tomorrow not ever. I put the blanket on the couch and i climbed on the bed."Now that's my girl." He said. I covered my head with the blanket not even wanting to look at him. "You are not allowed to cover your head with the blanket." He said. Was this nigga being serious. I don't think that controlling partners are like this. "What, why can't I cover my head with the blanket?" I asked him. "Because I said so." He said. What an asshole.

The next morning I woke up to the sound of a dog barking at my face. I slowly opened my eyes and I saw a big fluffy Coton de Tulear. Oh my God how I've always wanted to have one of this, I always loved how fluffy they looked, they just gave a lot of fur that I always dreamed of brushing its fur. I quickly ot up from the bed saying my morning prayer (for the first time since I git here.) after I was done I quickly picked the dog up from the ground and I started brushing its fur with my hand.it felt so smooth and soft on my hand. "Look at you cute little thing, how come I've never seen you before." I said hugging it. It was super cute. "I see you are awake." Maynard said coming out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist. His hair was wet and he had a towel over his head. Did such a ruthless man have to look so attractive, I wish that he was a nice man and we were in a normal relationship. "Why do you have to stare at me like that all the time?" He asked me. I decided to ignore him and give my lovely dog attention, he didn't deserve my attention anyway. "Are you ignoring me?" He asked me. "OH, sorry I didn't hear you? This puppy took all my attention." I said. It's not like he is some kind of new born baby that needs attention. "Really? Go take a shower the fashion designer will be here in three hours so you can try on the wedding dresses and you can pick the one that you like... What's that little rascal doing here?"He asked looking at the lovely Coton de Tulear that I was holding with so much love."I don't know he was here when I woke up." I said. "I see, I guess she's here." He said. "Who?" I asked him. "My grandmother that dig belongs to her. But I didn't expect her to come so early in the morning." He said. Wow so his grandmother was here. Well on novels and comics, grandmothers are usually the nicest people in rich families so I hope that his grandmother is nice too."OH, what is she like?" I asked him. I wanted to know what kind of a person she was that I would know how to behave, the last thing I wanted was to embarrass myself in front of his grandmother.

"She's well...different but don't worry about embarrassing yourself she won't like you anyway." He said. Wow that was a stab in the heart, so I was going to meet his grandmother knowing that she was not going to like me, well then I guess there was nothing to prepare for. "Don't act weak in front of her. Be strong and don't let her think that she can just walk over you, because if you let her have her way with you then I will feel embarrassed and she is gou g to tell the whole world that I'm getting married to weekling and that I've lost my taste when it comes to woman. So please try as hard as you can to not ruin reputation. "He said. Wow so it was all about him and his little reputation. How I wish I could just give him a beating and run away without him even catching me. "Okay I won't embarrassed you." I said. "Okay, now put that thing down before she finds you with it. If she does... Well, things aren't going to go well fir you if you touch her favourite thing in the whole world." He said. "OH, okay." I said putting this fluffy thing down, I could feel my heart breaking into a million peaces. "Go and take a shower I'll wait fir you because if I go first then she will again not make your life easy."He said. I nodded my head and then I went into the bathroom to take a shower. I just hoped that she was not as bad as he said she was.
