Cursed Bride

Chapter 5

lust swirled around in his eyes as he took in her every features, her pale white skin was glowing in the moon light making her look like an pure angel that he so badly wanted to corrupt with his touches.

a feeling of dread engulfed her when she felt his hungry eyes on her chest, going down on her legs, the way his eyes lingered on her breast gave her a sick feeling in the pit of her stomach.

"can I go back now" her soft hesitant voice brought him out of his thoughts, her eyes casted down as she quickly tied her robe around her waist with trembling hands hiding away her modesty from his dirty and lust full eyes.

Ryan groaned when she covered herself, his hand ached to pull her closer and tell her that she was his and no one could hide anything that belonged to him from him but he restrained himself.

Ariel's heart was pounding in utter horror, she was nervous and scared as she felt goosebumps all over body. she didn't like to look at him in the eyes because she always saw the lust and unholy things there that she was afraid of "please!" she added.

"why?" Ryan asked as he looked away and clenched his hand in order to control himself from taking her right against the wall.

Ryan didn't wanted his first time with Ariel a quick f**k unlike his usual f**k session. he wanted it to be a long passionate night of pleasure where he could wake up next to her in the morning.

"I am not comfortable here; with you" she mumbled truthfully as she looked down quickly looking at him once.

"you are not comfortable with me? who would be your husband in few days" Ryan angrily asked glaring at her with those red eyes "tell me whom are you comfortable with then?"

"tell me Ariel!" he yelled but she kept quite, looking down. she didn't wanted to answer him, she didn't owe him one.

he grabbed her hairs harshly making her hissed in pain "any boyfriend or man in your life?" he asked tracing his nose on her cheek and tears slipped out of her eyes "tell me do you have anyone in your life?"

"n-no" she lied, she didn't wanted to let him know about Ian, he would get to know another weakness of her.

Ryan kept looking at her, he knew she was lying and he hated liar. she did have one, Ian f*****g Xander that she had been dating from almost five years.

the audacity she had to lie on his face about her boyfriend pissed him off "look at me" he snarled at her.

"f*****g look at me!" he yelled making her flinched and almost instantly raising her eyes to look at him.

"it's good that you don't have one otherwise I would have killed him" he said playing along with her "understood?" Ariel nodded her head up and down hoping he had bought her lie.

Ryan turned around and started walking back where his car was parked and taking it as a cue Ariel went inside her house.

Ryan was boiling in anger but he knew it's not her fault entirely. she was afraid of him maybe that's why she lied to him. he kept defending her in his mind to keep himself in check. he didn't wanted to do anything he would regret later. that girl was too fragile for his dominating ass and he knew that yet he couldn't help but drown to her.

the urge of getting close to her, to held her in his arms was getting difficult to control. Ryan had to fight with his own self when he was around her and he was afraid what would happen if he loose control.

he was aware that he was forcing her into marriage but she didn't leave any other option for him. he did tried to approached her nicely, asking her out for a dinner like a gentleman. he would have proposed her there if only she had accepted the invitation but she didn't, she chose it hard way. she had brought that upon her. he wanted everything to be done smoothly but she had ask for it otherwise.

he tried to warn her everytime but she always take it lightly. all he wanted was Ariel to be happy and grateful as any other girl in her place would have been. he couldn't understand why Ariel was behaving like this. he had everything a woman would want in her husband; riches and looks. he could buy her whole world if she asked for unlike her poor boyfriend Ian.

as per Ryan, beauty like Ariel deserved to be treated like a queen that only he could make her, after all he was no less than a king himself.

Ryan released a sigh of tiredness as he knew Ariel would learn it hard way and he doubted if he would be able to control himself till then.

Bright sunlight seem to pierced her close eyes and she huffed in annoyance. waking up in the morning was something Ariel hated the most. she was not a morning person and she couldn't help it. no matter how many alarms she set but none was able to wake her up from her peaceful slumber until someone really shook her.

she lazily got up, stretching her arms while a yawn escaped from her mouth. tying her hair back in a bun she stood up and went to bathroom and came back after one hour, taking a long relaxing shower, wrapped in a white fluffy towel while her damped hair were loose.

she sat back on her bed leisurely and stretched her arms towards the cupboard on the right side of her bed to grab her phone and there was more than ten missed call from Ian.

Ariel quickly facetime him and he picked it up almost at the first ring, like he had been only waiting for her call.

"my sleepy head is finally up" Ian teased as soon as the call got connected.

"well morning to you too" Ariel replied casually ignoring his comment.

"it's evening here" he mentioned the obvious time difference between new york and Germany "by the way how are you doing?"

"I am fine and everything is-" Ariel stopped biting her lower lip as she didn't like to lie to him but she knew she had to "usual" she mumbled, all she wanted was now to cry in front of him and hide in his arms.

"have you been crying, love?" Ian asked taking her off gaurd, and she found herself getting nervous.

"n-no!" Ariel said "why do you ask?"

"your beautiful eyes are puffy, love and I know you have cried yourself to sleep yesterday" Ian said, observing her "what happened? tell me if something is wrong? you are making me worried love!" Ariel could sense the concerned his voice held for her, making her feel guilty.

"n-no nothing is wrong I-I am just missing you" Ariel looked down, she didn't have the guts to lie to him, she felt terrible.

"Ariel, you really think I would buy that" Ian sighed "look baby tell me if something is bothering you, I would help" Ian asked tenderly like he was talking to a baby.

"It's nothing seriously it's nothing" Ariel said and looked down again "I was just thinking about my parents that after marriage I would have to leave them" she quietly mumbled making him realesed a sigh of relief.

"I am not going to snatch you away from your parents, love. you could visit them daily if you want who is stopping you" Ian casually said making her smile a little at his caring nature.

"you would be the best husband, you know" Ariel smiled at him.

"and you would be my wife" Ian added making her burst into fits of giggles.

"come back soon please" Ariel said after a while biting her lips.

"I am coming tomorrow and please don't bite those lips, I am going insane not being able to touched them with mine" Ariel blushed at his comment and bite her tongue, shyly looking at him.

"and do one thing for me till tomorrow don't let anyone make you cry okay?" Ariel nodded as he continued "and be happy I don't want my girl to be sad"

"I love you and bye" Ariel said to which Ian replied with "moon and never back" she put her phone aside and went to get dressed, wearing a light blue loose denim and a tight black crop tee and some basic black flats and keeping her look all natural for the day with hair loose and a light pink lip gloss.

she went downstairs and had her breakfast with her parents and she left to wander around the city eventhough her parents had told her that she should stay home but she was stubborn and after making so many faces and pleas her parents agreed.

Ariel had always been like this, she didn't like to stay home. she loved travelling, wandering and roaming around, this helped her to feel contented and at peace.

she was driving her car when she received a call from Ryan and she let it ring but he kept calling again and again and she finally picked it up.

"don't you any work rather than disturbing me day and night" Ariel yelled at him. she thought she could spend her day peacefully without any fuss but she knew if he had called then it must be to bark another order or to demand something.

"lower your god damn voice" he said coldly. he had thought that as she had agreed to marry him then he would try to make her comfortable by trying to know her but that mouth of her always ruined his plan.

"I am coming to pick you up, be ready" he told her calmly when he didn't get any response from her side. Ryan sighed at her childlike tactics.

"I am busy" Ariel replied, she wasn't interested in going anywhere with him "and besides I've my own plans" she just didn't wanted to see him, he made her feel like a piece of flesh that he wanted to devour.

"it's simple cancel them" he said casually as he had planned their day out with few surprises for her. he had planned to made her smile today as he had made her shed enough tears already.

"I am not going to cancel anything but yeah if you want you can cancel yours!" and she hung up on him ruining his plan of being good with her.

Ryan groaned in anger and humiliation as soon as she disconnected the call, he had never planned something for any girl before and for the one he did had showed how proudy and ignorant she was to care. she denial wounded his ego and pricked his heart.

Ryan, despite the affection he had for her was really loosing his calm, her ignorant and arrogant behavior had started to get on his nerves. he wanted her to obey him and he was going to teach her that she must obey him no matter what!
