Chapter 64: Final Decision Revealed to Her

~ "This gift is exactly meant for me to give to my chosen wife," Cory said softly.

I pushed his hand away from my facial side and asked assertively, "W-What are you s-saying?"

In this sweet soft voice, Cory said, "what I am trying to say is. Am choosing you as my wife." His words pierced through my ears like a dragger.

My surroundings spun in cycles. Compare to just a second ago, I felt fainter. When I thought I'd fall he placed his hand on my chin rubbing it gently with his thumb. Then with his free hand, he held me around my waist. He held me up from tumbling down to the floor. As my blacked-out blurry vision slowly departed. Those dark marble green eyes of his come back into focus.

I gazed deeply into his luring gorgeous eyes. But that's when he kneeled his head downward and kisses my face side, lightly on my cheek. The peck on my cheek jarred me more from out of my tunnel vision. Very gently he took his hand off my chin and buckled his palm from around my hair to hold my nape.

I was frozen with his face close up to me. He pressed his forehead up against my head. For me to feel my flesh melting into his. I could feel his light breath fanning up against my face. Practically taking my quivering breath away. I was in total shock and I could tell he knew this. So he didn't move from me. As I measured to be about chin level to him.

Yet, I couldn't take it anymore of his affection and pulled his hand off from around my nape.

"Why are you choosing me as your wife?" I asked in a whisper, feeling myself turn pale white again. I was horrified as ever and allowed him to hold my waistline in case I did end up fainting.

"Because this is what was chosen for me long ago." With a gentle smile, Cory said softly, "destiny has drawn me right back to you again."

In total shock, I pulled away from Cory, getting out of his grasp. To take a sat on my vanity from feeling my knees weaken. I placed the gemstone dragon egg's box down on it. Trying to ease my heavy breath. Yet, I couldn't believe this! How will I never get away from him now? I inwardly asked myself.

While I noticed Cory walking behind me. My heart stopped again from feeling him gently slide some of my hair over my right shoulder and side neck.

As I stare at him through the center mirror attached to my vanity. "Please don't take me as a wife." I pleaded and begged. "I have no idea how to be a Primary Queen! You're the Primary King now! You don't have to do what your father wishes."

Cory leaned down over my left neck and facial side. He placed his hands gently underneath my ribs and whispered into my ear. "This is my choice, not my father's." His breath tickled into my left ear and flesh upon my nape. "I want to marry you. My mother and Grandmother Fiona the former Primary Queen will help you to be a spectacular Primary Queen."

"I don't know if I can do this." In greater shock, I whispered back as he stood himself tall, "you turned my world upside down. We don't even know each other." I stressed hoping he'll change his mind. Especially since he was being seemingly sweet and slightly romantic.

That is until I suddenly saw through the mirror, his eyes darkened again. A sheer dreadful glaze iced over his eyes as he narrowed them down at me.

"Would you like me to sell you to another businessman?" He barked asking me.

My skin turned snow-white, I was so terrified of his sudden shifted mood change. I didn't know how to respond and shook my head no. While I observed through the mirror that he took a breath and soften those darkened icy eyes.

Into a more gentle gaze and said calmly.

"Then I will take you as my bride. We will have over a lifetime to get to know each other. You will have all your freedom and more. If we can, you and I will make our own family."

I about choked on my saliva when he stated will make our own family together! As if him wanting to marry wasn't bad enough. Now he wants me to have his babies! Great! Now I'll be viewed as a breeder to him!

I felt disoriented from what my ears are hearing. While my thoughts raced back and forth. As I tried looking at this from another angle. He said I'll have my freedom. Being a Primary Queen I will have the Highest Rank as a Royal. It's known as the Highest Rank any hybrid-women can get. Especially for a worthless nobody like me. As of a week ago my name was only Slave.

Those were my pros but the cons are I am frightened of him. There were too many cons to list as I think. Kingdom societies are most feared for good reason.

I turned myself around and said, "I'm scared, C-Cory." My voice trembled. "This wasn't the type of freedom I wanted for myself."

Cory reached down for my right hand resting on my lap. He slowly brings it up to his lips and kissed my hand gently.

"I know but I will take care of you." He said with his charming appeal. "No one will hurt you again if someone does. They will greatly pay for their actions."

I was lost for my words looking up into his dark green luxurious eyes. While I felt myself barely breathing and my body was quivering.

But for the first time in my life, I've never heard anyone say this to me. I felt something completely new. That I've never experienced before. I felt maybe some form of security for the first time, I think. Yet, I still don't fully trust it.

As the odd silence only intensified between us, he stepped back from me.

He released my hand free from his grasp and said. "Your welcome to leave the room anytime now. If you try to run, I think you know by now I will find you. You becoming my bride now. Trust me when I say, you don't want my enemies finding you."

I kept reserved with him and didn't know what to say as he randomly paused in his voice.

"I need to finish my work and get it done," he finally said. "I'll let you have some time to think about all this."

Then he trailed off getting his laptop from his bedside and went down the hall just to be in his living room.
