Forced Marriage (2)
After Mouda spoke with Maryam and asked her to call the marriage officiant, Mostafa sat there in shock that he had agreed so quickly. He was terrified, but he was trying his best not to show it. He kept thinking that he had to escape at the first opportunity. At the same time, he was afraid that she might realize he was planning to run away.
Then he started thinking about his friend Mohamed, who was the reason all of this had happened. It was Mohamed who had convinced him to hold a car race in that area.
A little while later, the marriage officiant arrived, and Mouda brought Mostafa downstairs from his room.
Marriage Officiant:
"Do you accept this marriage?"
Mostafa (nervously):
"I... honestly..."
(He suddenly feels something touching his leg under the table.)
Mouda smiled calmly.
"Say 'I accept,' Mostafa."
Mostafa looked down...
...and saw the g*n. 😳
Mostafa (quickly):
"I accept! Of course I accept!"
Marriage Officiant (confused):
"My goodness! Was I even finished asking?"
A few moments later, they heard the officiant say his famous words:
"May Allah bless both of you, shower His blessings upon you, and unite you in goodness."
Mostafa was completely stunned by the situation he had gotten himself into, and he was frightened.
Mouda stayed silent for a moment before looking at him.
"But after one month... you'll be staying in the same room as me."
Mostafa (confused):
"What do you mean?"
Mouda (with a faint smile):
"It means you have one month... then you'll be with me."
She left him and walked away.
A month later...
Mouda was at the company early in the morning, and Mostafa decided this was the perfect chance to escape while she was away.
Mostafa walked quietly through the hallway, his heart pounding.
"This is my chance... I have to escape."
He slowly opened the door...
...and stepped outside.
Suddenly, he heard a voice behind him.
"Where do you think you're going, groom?"
Meanwhile, Mouda received news that Mostafa was nowhere to be found.
She began thinking anxiously before concluding that he had escaped.
But how?
No one knew the way out of the forest except the employees and a few vampires from the family.
Then a thought crossed her mind.
"What if he was kidn*pped?"
Mouda (to herself):
"No... that's impossible. I have to go. I swear I'll make him regret it."
She was worried and terrified.
Not only that...
Her anger had completely blinded her.
She entered one of her family's mansions.
She walked in with fast, determined steps. The guards tried to stop her.
"Your Highness, you can't—"
But she pushed them aside forcefully and said coldly,
"Get out of my way."
Then she added,
"So you still have the energy to call me 'Your Highness.'"
Silence filled the hall.
No one dared approach her.
She walked farther inside, her eyes burning with anger, grabbed one of the servants by his clothes, and demanded,
"Where is he?"
"Where is Asad?! Speak!"
The servant replied nervously,
"Your Highness, what's going on—"
She cut him off sharply.
"Where... is Asad?!"
Before he could answer...
A calm voice came from behind her.
"You seem angry, cousin."
Mouda slowly turned around.
Asad stood there, wearing his cold smile.
Mouda (threateningly):
"Bring Mostafa out. Right now."
Asad chuckled softly.
"Ah... your human husband?"
He stepped closer and said,
"Don't worry... he's still alive."
Mouda's eyes turned slightly red as she replied,
"You know I'm not joking."
Asad's smile widened.
"And I'm waiting to see what you're going to do."
Mouda glared at him.
"You know that if anything happens to him... your life will be over."
Asad (coldly):
"I know."
"But I want to tell you something..."
"I actually caught him while he was trying to escape."
Mouda (shouting):
"That's none of your business! Do you understand?"
Asad ordered the servants to bring Mostafa.
They brought him over.
Mouda took Mostafa with her and left.
As they walked out of Asad's mansion, Mouda was supporting Mostafa.
His entire body was covered in bruises, and he could barely walk.
As soon as they were far enough away...
She suddenly stopped.
She stepped closer and carefully examined his neck, his hands, and the rest of his body.
Mostafa (nervously):
"What... are you doing?"
Mouda (coldly):
"Making sure no one bit you."
He stayed silent.
His heart was beating rapidly.
Then she simply let go of him and walked ahead without saying another word.
The entire way back...
Silence.
Mostafa couldn't shake the strange feeling inside him.
The way she had touched him...
It was different.
After some time, they finally arrived at the palace.
As soon as they entered, Mouda stood in front of him and calmly said,
"If you want to leave... tell me."
Then she continued,
"I want you to know that I never intended to make you a prisoner of a vampire like me. If you truly want to leave, just tell me so I can be prepared."
Mostafa (quickly):
"If it were up to me, I'd leave this place and never come back."
She remained silent for a moment...
Then she answered,
"Alright."
After the month had passed, Mouda kept her promise.
Mostafa's belongings were moved into Mouda's room.
However, he asked her,
"Can we postpone the part about sharing the room?"
After a brief silence...
She replied,
"Fine. But your things have to stay in my room."
Mostafa:
"Alright."
⏳ Two Weeks Later
Mouda began to feel that someone was watching Mostafa.
Eyes...
Everywhere.
One night...
Mouda entered Mostafa's room.
She seemed different.
She walked toward him and held out her hand.
There was a dagger in it.
"Keep this with you."
Mostafa (confused):
"What is this?"
Mouda:
"A magical dagger... it can kill vampires."
He remained silent, completely shocked.
Without looking at him, she continued,
"If you ever feel you're in danger... use it."
She paused.
Then, in a chillingly calm voice, she added,
"Even if the danger is me."
To Be Continued...
