THIRD PERSON POV
The room was dead silent, there were no sounds apart from the heavy breathing of Leviathan and Porsha, immersed in a hungry kiss. Leviathan's hands caressing every inch of his new wife.
Then came a thunderous sound echoing across the hallway. It was a slap, not just any slap, a slap to Leviathan's face.
Leviathan stumbled backwards, his eyes darken, his vision blurring from yet another slap from a child.
His blood boiled, his limbs shaking with anger as he tried making sense of what just happened, but unfortunately, his supposed wife won't let him.
“What do you think of yourself?” Porsha asked with disdain, plaguing Leviathan's intrigues.
His ears were peeled on her, yet he didn't turn to her in his pointless efforts to suppress his anger.
“You have no right to walk into my room, or force yourself on me Emperor. I might be your wife but I am not your slave to lay my head to every of your commands. It's my body and I would decide who I would give it to” She said her eyes equally blazing with untold hate, and anguish, every word was from the heart, deep and intended.
“Your majesty I want to make it clear that the only thing I feel for you is hate. I absolutely hate you, your majesty. You touch irritates me and if I were to be given a choice between laying with you and a dog. I will happily choose the dog...” Porsha voiced but before she could finish, Leviathan's fist cut in, landing a punch few centimeters next to Porsha's face.
Porsha's blood ran cold, her eyes doubled in size as she gazed upon the now broken wall with trembling limbs.
“Who do you think you are Porsha. You think you are something just because you are beautiful. You are nothing but a trophy your parents sold to the highest beater” Leviathan yelled, his voice thunderous, that it made Porsha's chest heavy. It was no news that she was sold to him for mare peanut but it still hurt to hear it straight from his mouth.
“You slap me at will, just because I let you. But this should be the last time. The next time you do something as stupid as this, I will ensure that you indeed spend the night with those dogs you are so proud of,” He said and Porsha's heart skipped a beat.
The hate in his eyes said it all he meant every word.
“I bought you Porsha. I purchase you for ten thousand gold pieces and as such I own you, your body, your soul, every inch of you" He said with a raised voice, as he grabbed Porsha by the arm. His right fist bleeding on her arm. Porsha's eyes watered, her heart hurt as though she had been stabbed multiple times.
“You are so proud of this body of yours right? Well I am assuring you that from now onwards I would never touch you, unless you beg me. Porsha, you will die a lonely dead, with no one to call your own” He said throwing her to the ground and stumbling out of the room.
Porsha's tears increased. She felt like the ground was collapsing underneath her. She made herself into a ball, hugging her knees in fear.
He tried to hit her again, he was not a man, he was a ferocious monster who didn't mind getting his hands on a woman if it meant he would get his way.
Was this how she was supposed to live the rest of her life. Only being viewed as a trophy and constantly engaging in conflicts with her own husband.
Leviathan walked out of Porsha's room, his fist now completely covered with blood.
He tore off a piece of his clothing, and wrapped his wounded hand, and strided to the room of the one person who understood him like no one else, his first wife and best friend, Cassandra.
He bashed into Cassandra's room, only to see her dragging on her pipe. Once her servants saw him, they immediately excused themselves.
Cassandra turned to him, glanced at Leviathan and turned away with a smile.
“What are you doing here, Levi. Shouldn't you be with your new wife?” Cassandra asked with a little smirk.
She had gotten use to Leviathan paying her late night visits but never before had he visited her on any of his wedding nights.
Leviathan just let out a small chuckle and took a seat next to her.
“You know, that wasn't the welcome I was expecting” He confessed and she burst into a chuckle of her own.
“Levi you should know me by now. I do whatever I like. As your special queen I believe it's my right to skip protocol” Cassandra said, still with a smile on her face as she offered him her pipe, “Smoke?"
Leviathan praised, grabbing hold of the pipe, Cassandra truly knew him more than anyone else, a smooth normally curbed his anger.
He took a drag, puffing the smoke into the air, alongside some of his worry.
“So tell me Levi, what happened to your fist, did your wild new addition to the harem become to wild for you?” Cassandra asked, taking Leviathan aback. His blood boiled and without thinking he sent the pipe flying to the wall.
“It would have been better if she was just wild, but that Porsha woman is not only disrespectful. She's arrogant as well” Leviathan announced, plaguing Cassandra's interest.
“Interesting! tell me about everything that lousy woman did to you...?” Cassandra questioned, her tone laced with curiosity.
“It goes like this..." Leviathan explained everything chronologically, his tone filled with anger.
“Oh my goodness” Cassandra exclaimed in shock with large eyes. “We have to put that woman in her place, Levi. Just give me the permission to deal with that woman"
Leviathan shoke his head in denier. In as much as he was mad at Porsha. He wasn't in such a hurry to hand her over to Cassandra just yet.
“There would be no need for that” He announced and Cassandra's stomach tightened with displeasure.
“What do you mean by that Levi. That woman dared to slap you. Are you suggesting we let her get away with it?" She doubted with a frown, her brown raised, as she rose to her feet in anger.
“Not at all Cas” He corrected pulling her onto his lap.
“You know me too well. I am not so kind that I will forgive her trespasses so easily” He assured and Cassandra's lips curved into a smile.
“I will definitely punish her, but not in private. I want to humiliate her where the entire world could see. And I have just the perfect plan for her, during her welcome home party tomorrow night,” Leviathan informed with a nemesing smirk and Cassandra joined in.
