The bed was less than king-size, with white sheets and blankets, there were stains of virgin blood from the woman who sat on the bed. The 20-year-old woman cried when she realized that last night she had slept with a man she didn't love. That night, she imagined that she had slept with her lover, William, who turned out to have betrayed her. She regretted that she had slept with another man under the influence of alcohol last night because she was heartbroken and disappointed, and instead she had taken out her desire on the ugly man next to her. Ana sobbed as she looked at the monster-faced man.
"How can I spend my first night with that monster?" She tugged at her hair in frustration. She remembered how the man had touched every inch of her body. His kiss was so warm that she fell asleep, forgetting everything. She hated remembering all that. "No!"
Seven days before that night, Ana smiled as she saw the beauty before her. That day, Isabella, her half-sister, invited her to see the scenery on the mountain. The girl in the purple dress breathed in the fresh air as the wind blew in her face.
"After I married William, maybe I didn't have much time to feel the beautiful atmosphere outside the palace," Ana said as she closed her eyes. She enjoyed the cool atmosphere on the mountain so much.
Isabella slowly approached her and suddenly pushed him into the abyss.
"Isabella!" Ana screamed in fear. She tried to grab Isabella's hand to ask for help, but Isabella stepped back, not wanting to save her. Ana was shocked and couldn't believe the cruel look the woman gave her. Poor Ana immediately fell into a very deep pit.
Isabella laughed after confirming Ana's death.
"What are you going to do now?" asked Sonia, her cousin, who was standing behind them.
"Take over the marriage, of course. Prince William will be crowned Alpha, and I can't pass up the chance to be his queen." Isabella smiled mischievously.
The rushing water of the river dragged Ana's body to the shore. The woman slowly opened her eyes. She was shocked to find that she was still alive, and to make sure she was still alive, she touched her entire body, which was only injured in the right arm, but as she stood up, the woman felt pain in her left knee. "Ouch!"
The day had turned to afternoon and would soon be dark. Slowly, Ana sat down on the stone and washed her wound with water. Although it was very painful, she tried to bear the pain. After bandaging her knee with a piece of cloth from her dress, Ana tried to get up. She complained of pain, but not as much as before.
Ana looked around. "I can't walk very far. Maybe I should stay here for the night." Just as Ana was thinking of a place to lie down, she was suddenly surprised to see the grass move in front of her. Ana stood up immediately, alert. "Is someone there?" She waited a little longer, but no one answered. Finally, Ana thought that the sound might be the voice of a rabbit hiding in the bushes. She felt a little calmer, but her calm didn't last long when Ana saw a pair of sharp eyes watching her from behind a tree.
Ana felt that someone was watching her. She soon knew that there was danger. Ana slowly walked backwards, then as she was about to run, she accidentally stepped on a rock, causing her to fall. A black wolf jumped out of the bush, followed by two more wolves that came out of hiding near the tree. Ana was shocked to see the hungry looking wolves. Suddenly her body felt paralyzed, so all Ana could do was try to move. "Oh my God!" She could only pray and hope that God would send someone to save her.
The hungry wolves were about to pounce on her, but they stopped immediately when they heard the sound of a man whistling from the left.
Ana was able to move her body a little and she did not waste the opportunity, she immediately ran as far as she could, even though she had to try hard to endure the pain of the wound. She kept running even though she kept falling from exhaustion, but her desire to stay alive kept her alive until now. Night fell and the voices of the wolves clashed. Ana panicked because she had not yet found a place to hide from the wild animals that might prey on her.
Ana continued to run through the forest, hoping to find a place to spend the night, and after some effort, she finally found a magnificent castle. Without thinking, Ana immediately entered the castle gate. Strangely, the castle wasn't guarded by anyone, but Ana, who was more worried about her life, didn't feel suspicious at all. She entered the castle right away. Ana was fascinated to see the beauty inside. She saw a staircase made of gold and objects made of copper and silver.
The sound of footsteps came from the direction of the stairs. Ana stared at the stairs. There stood a man who made Ana's face turn pale. She was so shocked that she immediately fainted.
Ana was lying on a luxurious bed with white sheets. Her torn and dirty clothes were replaced by an orange dress. Ana slept restlessly. This woman dreamed of falling from the top of the mountain, so she woke up and screamed hysterically. "No!"
A man stood in front of Ana, who was immediately frightened and tried to protect herself by taking out a table lamp to hit the creepy man. The man, whose entire body was covered in fur and who had both horns, instantly frightened everyone who saw him.
"Stay away from me!" Ana pointed the table lamp at her, ready to attack if the man hurt her at any time.
"These wolves will prey on you if you leave this castle," the man said in a voice that made Ana's skin crawl.
"I don't care!" Ana tried to hide her fear so the ugly looking man wouldn't dare bother her, but the man wasn't afraid of her. The man approached Ana, who immediately ran away, but since she was still injured, she was easily caught by the man.
Ana tried to free herself from his arms. She used all her strength to hit him, but she could not make the man move. The man looked at Ana, which made her feel like she was going to be eaten by him.
"I can save your life if you're willing to marry me." The man whispered into Ana's ear.
Ana's eyes bulged immediately, she was surprised to hear this. How could a shamelessly ugly man propose to her?
"I promise to make you happy."
"What if I'm not ready?" Ana swallowed her saliva at this question. She knew not to ask this question because the man might turn it into dinner.
"I'll tell the wolves to come here."
The man touched Ana's face gently, but what Ana felt was a deep sense of fear and anxiety. Ana was disgusted by the hair growing all over the man's body.
"Marry me."
Ana was still considering the proposal, but apparently the man was not willing to wait any longer, so the man immediately strangled Ana's neck so that Ana felt pain.
"Die or marry me!" He showed Ana his fangs, which made Ana feel even more that she was about to die.
Ana was forced to nod her head while holding back the pain, hoping that the man would let her go soon, but what happened was that the man instead forcibly took her first kiss and even left a slight bite that hurt her lips, and after that Ana didn't know what happened to him, she fainted in the man's arms.
