Taming Damon, The Demon (ENGLISH)

Wedding

I looked at myself in the mirror. I’m wearing a mermaid cut long sleeves white lace dress. It was revealing my bareback and a long slit on the back of the dress. It was a wedding gown, but Madam Sophia says it was just a dress. So I won’t debate.

“Are you ready, darling?”

I’m thankful that she’s here with me the whole time I was here in their mansion.

I feel suffocated every time I see Damon’s face who’s always scowling at me.

“Hey, sister-in-law. Smile, you’re getting married, but you look like death.” I rolled my eyes at Lujan.

Since last night he doesn’t stop teasing me if he's given a chance.

I exhaled and try to calm myself when I saw the people waiting for me downstairs. I don’t know if they’re here because of the wedding or they’re just curious about what kind of girl Damon would marry.

Maybe it’s the latter.

“Hey, don’t be nervous they won’t eat you.”

I exhaled again and clung unto Lujan’s arms. He’s going to escort me, coz I don’t have anyone here. I don’t have any, even Gia’s not here to console or support me. But the organizer asked Lujan to wait for me on the

You enter this messed alone, you’ll resolve it alone too.

I looked around and searched for a familiar face but even Damon’s face was nowhere to be found. Lujan said maybe he's in the garden already, coz that’s where the wedding will be held.

“Oh my, she’s gorgeous. You lucky to get a daughter-in-law like here.”

“Oh, someone’s happy to hear that.” I rolled my eyes at Lujan.

The garden was arranged like a fairy tale wedding. So this is what rich people do. All you need is money and voila, everything is ready in one snap.

Lujan left me on the arched before I enter the garden. There’s a curtain in front of me that’s separating me from them. Damon said this was just a formality but everything around me was so perfect. Every girl who dreamed of a simple wedding was here and Madam Sofia is the reason behind it.

And this was my dream wedding right now. I can’t help but to emotional.

I blinked so many times to suppressed my tears to fall. Now that I’m standing here, everything’s getting real on me now. I’m getting married to this Demon who doesn’t even have a single feeling about me. I’m marrying to save his pride and take revenge on his ex.

When I was a child I’m dreaming to be a Princess. I wanted to find my own Prince Charming and my fairy tale wedding. But right now it is happening right in front of me. The difference was his not my Prince and I'm not his Princess.

My family doesn’t have any idea that I’m getting married today. Oh god, how do I even end up here for heaven’s sake?

As the organizer opens the curtain You are the reason by Callum Scott played in the background. I don’t know but when I started walking on the aisle my tears kept on falling. I stop in the middle of the aisle and cried. I was crying too hard when someone called my name on the front seat of the visitors.

“Mum…” I whispered as she waved at me as if she’s encouraging me to continue walking.

And I did.

I saw Damon standing on the altar and patiently waiting for me. I smirked when he smiled at me and looked at me like I’m the most beautiful in his eyes.

He's a great actor to do both.

Coz it looks really convincing.

My Mum is crying beside her was my Dad who kept on tapping her back and wiping her tears.

“You look so gorgeous and the dress fits you well.” He said as he reaches for my hands.

“I know that no need to state the fact.” He chuckled at what I said and guided me to the altar.

He’s bipolar. Last night he talks to me like he doesn’t want to do anything with me. He’s getting on my nerves.

“You told my Mum about us?”

“Yeah, I’ve already called her and pay her a visit the last time we talked.”

I looked at him unbelievably. “After you gave me the ring?” he nods. “How sure are you that I was going to marry you?”

He smirked and kissed me on the cheek near my ears. “I don’t need your approval, coz I’ll make you my wife no matter what.” Huh! How conceited.

I wanted to shout at him and object but the priest in front of us was already eyeing me. He knows were not listening to him.

“Today we gathered here for the union of Hiyasmin Jade and Aksel Damon…”

I didn’t know that getting married is kinda tiring. All the ceremony and walking at each table to thank all the guests were exhausting.

I sit on the bench near the tree and remove the heels I’m wearing. I can feel the numbness of my legs right now.

“Oh god, this was not fun,” I mumbled and lean on the bench.

I exhaled and close my eyes.

I can still hear the noise from the garden. But I wanted to rest so I just stay there and enjoy the calmness of the night. All I can hear were laughter, and how happy they are.

“What are you doing here?”

“Oh, Jesus.” I almost jumped in shock when I opened my eyes and saw Damon looking down on me.

“It’s dark here. And the guest was looking for you.” He looked at me as if he’s looking for something, then down to my bare feet.

“I’m tired. I just wanted to rest for a moment. You’re the one who should entertain them coz you knew them. I’m not sure if they’re on the same level as me.” I shrugged as I sway my feet.

“You don’t need a level to talk to people. And besides, you're level is way higher than them.”

I glanced at him who's looking in the sky. He looks calm today. I wanted to ask him what he’s thinking when he asks me to marry him. Let's say he’s doing this to take revenge on Martina, but the fact that there are so many girls who are better than me, I don’t think he should settle on less.

After this, we’re going back to Manhattan, not just his secretary and assistant. This time I’m also his wife, the new job that I don’t know if I can fulfill.

“Why me?” I asked him and glance at him.

He turns on me seriously, I thought his gonna say something. But I was taken aback when he moved his head inches away from me and stared at me. I can feel my breathing getting heavy because of his presence.

He always makes me uncomfortable when near me.

Every time he moved forward near me I moved to the side of the bench too. I was too engrossed that I haven’t realized that I was at the end already. Thank god, Damon catch me before I fall.

He smirked. “That’s, why it’s you.” He uttered before he left.

Huh? What was that? Does he say something a while ago that I didn’t hear?

Tsk! I just pick up my shoes and walked to the side of the houses where nobody can see me. But halfway through the pool, I came face to face with Martina.

The girl who was starting to make my life a living hell.

“So it’s true that you got married. I was hoping that Damon was messing with me. But this time he makes it real.”

She stands there proudly with her black fitted bandage dress. She's ready to throw herself on my husband. Yeah, coz we got married so he's mine.

“Why do you care? You’re not even invited so what’s the point of being here?”

“I want to see, Damon.”

“I won’t let you.” She looked at me scowling and smirked.

I don’t care if she finds me funny or something. The fact that the man he wants to be is mine, she doesn’t have a say.

“Damon, we’re just playing you. He's just using you to get back on me. Damon, was just, using you to make me jealous. I don't even know why you marry him you’re not even close to his ideal girl.”

Yeah maybe he is, but I can’t stop him from doing that so I’ll just do my part for my benefits too.

I can’t help but laugh at her. She’s pre-occupied with my existence in Damon’s life that she forgets what she did on Damon to be like this.

“You know what, Martina. I pity you the fact that your using all your time stalking Damon, makes you more pathetic. If Damon were using me to get even on you… then were even, coz I’m using him too. Satisfied?” I hissed at her and gonna past her by.

But she snatched my arms and pulled me. She’s so angry that she already dragged me to the side of the pool to hide from the people inside.

“You can’t have Damon. He’s mine and I’ll make him mine again.” She angrily exclaimed.

“Damon is not a thing that you can take back anytime you want. You left him it is your choice, no one pushed you to do that. Now that he found someone you’re coming here then claiming him yours? Wtf! Martina, wake up. You can have him if you can be his mistress." I said and pulled my arms from her hands.

What the heck Jade your just giving her an idea and I’m sure Damon won't like it. If he wanted, Martina then I’m just doing him a favor.

“Then I will be.” She whispered.

What a shame, I won’t let you win easily.

Maybe if your somebody else, but it’s you, Martina.

“Then let see, who’s the luckiest b***h win. Coz I won’t make you.” I smirked and walk my way inside the mansion.

But before I could take another step she grabbed my hair and pulled it again and again.

“I won’t just let you leave, you bitch.”

“Let go. I said let go, you slut.”

She pulled my hair and drag me but I also pulled her hair. I won’t let her make me bald. She’s shouting, cursing, and calling me names that I don’t know where’s she gets. But I was too busy pulling her hair that I didn’t see the pool beside me.

We both fall into the pool and I thought she’ll stop coz we almost get drowned. But she’s so persistent and grabs my feet and starts harassing me again. I can’t move easily coz my f*****g dress was so heavy. I can’t just let her win I need to win.

Fuck! Where the hell is Damon? Aren’t he gonna save me? Isn’t he gonna stop this b***h from harassing me, coz it is my f*****g wedding day and she’s making me ruin it. Martina is tall and it is easy for her to just grabbed me and the fact that I can’t be moved she almost drowned me, but someone pulled me out of the water.

I was shivering in cold and out of breathing. I was expecting he’ll be saved me… I was expecting him.

But to my dismay, it's someone else.
