To the East

I wasn’t so sure if it was my own blood stained my wedding dress. I was so sure that I bathed in crimson as I tried to catch my breath. I held my chest as I can feel the pain for the bullet thoroughly tormented my flesh. My vision was blurry as I tried to see my groom with his devilish look while pointing a gun at me. I’m sure he already fired it, as I tried to stop the blood oozing from my chest. Tears rolled down as I recalled how happy I am at his grand proposal. How he whispers the endless “I love you” to me. How his lips brushed mine as he held me in his embrace.  How sweet his smiles as it were purposely painted like the sun on clear blue skies. Hugo. I looked at him with bitterness as I tried to brush off my tears. I don’t understand why our love ends up like this.  All the love I had shattered as I looked this unfamiliar man in front of me. He walked towards me and he pointed the gun he held in his hands earlier. “My sweetest Jane.” He planted a departing kiss as I tried to talk back but my lips won’t move. My body was trembling with fear with the monster that is willing to end my life.  “I know you must be shocked at this state.” As he played few strands of my hair as I tried to reach him to retaliate but my trembling hands landed at his face, stained his handsome face with the blood from my chest. My tears won’t stop from flowing as I watch him laugh hideously; he held my hands and feels it in his face. I could still feel the warmth in his face.  “Hu..Hugo…Please help me.” Trying to survive and plead. I wonder if one touch could appease his anger and withdraw his gun from my head. “Shhhhhhh….. Don’t cry love. You won’t be alone in your afterlife. You may join your beloved parents, what do you think?” My parents, their faces flashed in my mind as they were supportive in my wedding with Hugo. They were the one who arrange this whole thing as their only cherished daughter. I trembled with wrath as I grabbed his collar with my might. This cursed creature! “What did I do to deserve this!” I shouted with all my voice that left with me. I couldn’t let him go as I gather my strength to get even for my parents. My naïve parents who blindly supported me to be with him.  He laughed evilly and I couldn’t know him. I stood in silence as I listened him laughed in my state, Hugo have you ever loved me? Thought crossed my mind. “You were too stubborn to believe that I loved you Jane. You were easily deluded that I need to get rid of you.”  So this must be the most hurting words I heard. I let him go from my grasp. I know he was waiting seconds to end my life it was that I am a bit impatient. “Indeed I am deluded Hugo. I regret falling in love with you wholeheartedly.” I pulled the trigger from the gun he pointed at me and I fell into darkness. Everything was a lie. Before I totally lose my senses, I could hear a woman calling Hugo and stood toward his side. I could still gaze at the approaching shadow and it became clearer and clearer. I clenched my face of what I saw. It was my sister, Allison and behind her were my parents. I wanted to laughed with the twist of events. Nobody know I could still heard them talking in my dying self. I could feel my mother’s hand wring my neck to sure that I will die. I could not resist.  My death was stage. My death was….

Wedding Night

Jane regained consciousness and she tried to room her eyes around. She tried to rise up but the strong and muscular arms stopped her and laid her on her backs. Czarrino's arms wrapped in her tiny waist as if they originally wanted to trap her. She could still feel his breath on her nape as her body turned her back on him. He bit her left ear and grabbed her closer to him. She tried not to panic but her throbbing heart betrayed her as he could loudly hear them pound. His hands traveled from her waist to her bust as he tease her that she shivered from this touch.

"Oh my. Don't you think we must resume our consummation? I was too eager to do it and even to eat you in your sleep." there is a trace of mockery in his words which disgust her.

Jane gently turns to face him. They were few inches apart yet she manages to avoid from his touch.

"Is it the crown prince again?" his dark expression visibly displayed his remorse.

Jane inhaled deeply before she speaks. She must dissolve this disagreement. She must live this time. She must.

"I have nothing to do with that crown prince. I don't have dealings with him anymore my lord." She couldn't remember in her mind this stranger's name except the fact that he was her husband. "It is in the past. I no longer linger what I had with the crown prince."

Czarrino laughed in disbelief as if he can be fooled from it. He knows Maia from the start. She would do anything for the prince even agreeing on marrying him to know the royal decree from the late emperor. He is the richest and influential duke in the kingdom. He owned more that the royal in this kingdom. He could abolish and replace any royalty for he is a royalty himself.

"Do you think I could still believe with what nonsense you spouted? You tried to steal the royal decree and handed it to the crown prince. It just you got the wrong material my wife."

I know, Jane thought as she despised herself comparable to Maia. They were both blinded with love to that bastard. She doesn't need Czarrino's affection but mercy to let her find her peace. She has no longer to ask for retribution for that crown prince but a peace and a life for herself.

"I know you can't forgive me but all I want is your mercy. I will do anything within my means my Lord. I want to live in peace."

"You will do anything?"he reiterate.

"Anything you desired."she answered directly.

"Then, give me an heir."

"Yes….What?" she gasped in disbelief as she covered herself.

"What's wrong? You are my wife anyway." He emphasized each word. "Oh don't tell me you were saving your chastity to your noble prince? You know that he is engaged to another kingdom already."

"I am saving it to no one. Nobody owned me."

"But I do."

"You!"Czarrino pulled her closer to her and kissed her passionately. She know to where it would be leading. Jane tried to struggle but his kisses become more forceful and rough. She could feel his hands peeled her clothes one by one which she fought again to cover herself.

He exposed her nudity; every skin she tried to save was lay open that all she did was cried and shed in misery. She cover herself in sheets and tried to hide herself but she could hear the duke removed his clothes too one by one. Both of them were naked then he pulled the sheets. Her pushes were weak against her small frame. He kissed her again and pinned her both hands. Jane was drowned as if she could never resurface again.

Czarrino pushed her on the bed as she groan for pain, he bit her and leave marks on her entire body. His anger cannot be surmounted by her betrayal that he forcibly enters her sensitive core and drive her in his wrath. She screamed that the servants could hear. It is not held in love, even respect is faded.

His hands bring no ecstatic feeling to where he place them and torment them. All could she do is to moan and scream hard as she barely faced his torment. She cried with no sound and her body could give away any moment but the Duke has no intention of stopping. She was explored, flipped, exploited in every areas of her body that she could not feel her body at all.

"Stop.." it was almost a whisper and tears roll off from her eyes. She could no longer see anything but blurred vision in her sight. Her hands and limbs were limp yet her husband never stopped. He carried her and supported her on the wall. She was again forced and defiled while standing and leaning against the wall.

"Do you intend to be embrace gently? Loved? With respect? Do you fell remorse?" it was Czarrino's words echoed in her ears. She was still driven in madness. She was carried again on to the bed were her weak legs were spread openly. She could not move them, she's too tired, shes helpless. It is better for her to die. He forced his way again and this time he placed his hand to her neck and drove himself as fast as he could until Jane collapsed like corpse.

"You brought it yourself Maia. I simply return all the humiliations you gave me these years. Suffer until you bore me my heir."

In the middle of the night Jane woke up as she grabbed her clothes near to her. Her nakedness disgust her that she tried to reach her clothes with her weak limbs. Its just Czarrino's arms pulled her closer to him that she needed to let her clothes go. She was afraid that Czarrino might woke up and do that horrible things to her again. She can't stop trembling as she recalled how he passionately punished him. Even Czarrino can feel her fear as he tried to trap her in his embrace.

"Sleep." He ordered as he placed his arms in her waist. She flinched as she heard his voice and automatically shut her eyes. How long this tormenting nights stop? His hatred can't spare her from this. She must survive. She must live in peace.

She opens her eyes as a ray of sunlight struck her. It was from the glass window was the curtain brushed off to the side. She looked at the silhouette as she clearly looked at the person. She cowered back as she recognized Czarrino's back. She was surprised that she was in her clothes.

She was about to stand but she collapsed of the floor. Her knees are weak and her legs are painful. Czarrino turn and look at her and saw how she tried to stand up holding the covers. He walk towards her and carry her back to the bed.

"Rest. It might still be painful. I'll call the maids to serve you the breakfast."

She just lowered her head and nod in silence. It is indeed painful. She looked at her chest and saw multiple of marks from his bites. She sigh as she still remember those humiliations he done to her. But she is his wife. She is his scandalous wife. It was too lenient to punish her like this.
