Chapter 3 Is There Going To Be A Wedding Night?

1123 Words
Penelope's POV I tried to compose myself as the man glared hard at me, but I knew that might be because he doesn't get along well with the owner of the body, and now it was my turn to make amends. I must not let the man know that something was off but how the owner of this body was acting with this man in front of me before I flopped. “Are you still not talking?” I heard him ask, and I could tell that he was vexed, but I still didn't say anything. I wanted him to react harshly to me. Maybe I could finally tell the reason the owner of this body wanted to leave him but apart from his constant cold glare towards me, he didn't touch me for the longest time and that surprised me. ‘Even though he might not be a gentleman, but I could tell that he didn't look like a woman beater so what was this lady thinking by running away from him’ I mulled in my head and a smile formed on my lips. He is the perfect man for my revenge! “What are you saying? Don't tell me that you are worried that I have really forgotten about you?” I tried showing my face forward, and I watched as the man looked at me like I lost a screw in my head. “What are you doing? Is this your other plan to escape? You want me to let down my guard, and then you can escape yet again?” he hissed in anger, and my forehead creased in frustration. I wondered what the owner of this body did with her life for her to has so much distrust from everyone. Even her mother didn't believe her, and now this handsome hunk is doubting… my goodness. Looks like I was going to have it hard with this body. “I am never escaping again,” I vowed, and the man stepped away from me and I sighed in relief seeing that because the man's closeness was tampering with my sanity and I do not think I could hold on. “You really have something up your sleeve,” the man says, and I was equally surprised to hear that because I was expecting the man to believe me after I swore that he was going to. I have to escape from this post regardless of him being handsome. “Have you guys planned to die together that's why you decided to take the poison, right?” he asked, and my breathing ceased hearing his words. “Who is that? Do I plan to use poison with anyone?” I asked because I was confused. “Oh, you still want to protect him despite all the trouble you have made me go through… Did you know the humiliation you had caused me by having my mate use poison on our wedding day?” he asked, infuriated, and I was perplexed by his words. Does Zera want to elope with someone while she has a mate? Is that not betrayal? I wondered and that makes me have a painful flashback of what happened to me before I slipped into this body. They betrayed me too, but what makes his story different was that he was not the one that consumed the poison. She still respected him. “There is no such thing, I just…a little bit of memory spacing and I do not remember with many details after waking up but.” I was trying to pacify the situation, but the man cut me off. “I know you did what you did because you are trying to ruin the wedding but too bad the night is still young, and we can go on with the mating rituals,” he says yanking my hands as he dragged me back into the room and Kiara that I sent out was surprised to see him in the room. “Alpha,” she bowed in respect, and he just hummed in reply. “Dress your lady for the night, even though there is no more celebration there is still a ritual to hold,” he says irritatedly, and I was surprised. Why is everything happening so fast? I wasn't even able to wrap my hands around what was going on, but the man was bent on mating me that same day. It was supposed to be the day of my wedding today, but things went south, and now I am getting married to a man I don't know his name. “Do we really have to get married today?” I said it loud enough for the man's hearing, but he just chuckled hearing my words. “Yes, My lady, it's an auspicious day that the…” Kiara says but I cut her off immediately. “Did you mean today is…” I was saying, but I trailed off finally getting it. My soul entered into the girl's body the same day I was poisoned, and she was also getting married, is it a coincidence? Even though I didn't know who the man I was getting married to yet, I still felt that it was right, and I wasn't going to find any bargain better than him to survive. “Is there going to be a wedding night?” I asked, and the man passed me a hard glare and I knew my question might have ticked off the wrong way, but I knew that I had the right to know. “What did you mean? Don't tell me that you are backing out now when you know about that?” he asked me and I bit my lips down anxiously hearing his words. If I vehemently refused his offer he was going to think that I did that because I was still bent on escaping from him and that I was just using him, but the truth was that I was also scared. Everything was happening rather too fast. It's not even a day that I wake up in this lady's body, but my life has experienced so many changes that I could ever imagine. Now, this man wanted to sleep with me but did I really want to sleep with him? “Why do you think so much? Do you have a change of mind?” he asked, and my body stiffened hearing that. “That's not possible,” I said, and he smirked at me. “Then I will ask the maids to prepare our room,” he said and walked out of the room and I sighed. What have I gotten myself into, why is living as Zera this hard?
