Chapter Four: BRIDE'S FOE
1202 Words
Startled by the voice from behind the door, Amanda dropped her phone to the ground and then started to wipe her tears, still in a kneeling position.
“I am fine, I am ok!” She said in a loud tone, sniffling at the pain she felt inside of her.
She got up a few seconds later, and then she took the white towel from the box and covered her half-naked body, before walking down to the door.
She pulled the handle and opened the door. Standing in front of her was Kyle, her husband of a few hours, the stranger she married.
“Are you ok?” Kyle asked, looking all over her to be sure she was fine, but his eyes caught sight of her ravishing thighs exposed as a result of the towel covering a part of her body.
He gawked at the sight for a while, lost in the fantasies of lust.
“Do you want something?” Amanda asked, seeing that he had stood in front of her for a while, without saying anything.
“Yeah, em.” Kyle stuttered, suddenly coming back to his senses.
“I came to check in on you, to see if you are settling in fine.”
“Yeah, I am fine, everything is alright,” Amanda said with a low tone.
“That is good, Dinner will be served in thirty minutes' time, please don't be late.”
“Ok,” Amanda said softly, but before could finish the words, Kyle had already turned and walked away slowly to his room next door.
Looking at the brawny man walk away, Amanda admired his broad shoulder, and the tattoo of a beautiful dragon on the right part of his neck.
“How come I have never seen that before?” She thought to herself, but getting a grip of herself a few seconds later, she shook off the thoughts running through her mind, and then she went back into the room and shut the door behind her.
Amanda turned her back to the door, and then she leaned backward on it, sighing deeply at the emotions gathered in her body.
“Are you really sure about this?” She thought to herself, but she only met silence.
A few seconds later, she decided to take her bath and hurry down for Dinner. Quickly, as soon as she saw the door to the bathroom in a corner, she walked into the bathroom and had a nice shower, next, she put on a nice nightgown, and by the time she was done brushing her long raven black hair, it was a few minutes to the time for dinner.
She rushed out of the room, and went down the stairs, till she got to the dining hall.
“I am sorry Ma’am, I am almost done.”
“Oh no Grace, take your time,” Amanda said to the maid, seeing that she was trying to hurriedly finish up with setting the table.
Amanda dragged out one of the seats in the middle of the table, and then she sat down slowly sighing almost at once.
“You are down already, that’s good.”
Amanda lifted her head slowly to see Kyle walking down the stairs with a plain face.
“Why doesn’t he ever smile?” Amanda said to herself, as she watched Kyle take the last two steps.
“What are we having for dinner, Grace?”
“Grilled vegetables and mutton chops, Sir.”
“Alright.” Kyle responded softly, and then he sat on the chair at the right end of the table, while Grace started to dish out the food at once.
“You may leave now, Grace.”
That was the only word Kyle said at the table, he ate silently, without bothering to look at Amanda who stole glances at him at different intervals, waiting for him to say something to her, but he never did.
Suddenly, Amanda lost her appetite, that was the most silent dinner she had ever had, and the fact that she was there with her supposed husband who chose to eat silently seemed really awkward to her.
She dropped the fork on the table, making a clattering sound, but that didn’t draw Kyle’s attention.
Not willing to give up, she cleared her throat twice, and then she turned to Kyle who was silently munching his food and looking straight.
“Do you live here alone?”
Kyle stopped chewing the meat in his mouth, and then he swallowed hard, before taking in a gulp of water inside the glass cup.
“Yes, I do.” He answered in a low tone, and then he resumed eating his food immediately.
“Don’t you have families? Siblings or even friends?”
Kyle stopped eating, he dropped the fork on the table, and then he turned to face Amanda, with a stern look.
“I am sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you.”
“That’s ok, I think I have lost my appetite. Goodnight.”
Amanda watched as Kyle got up slowly, and then walked up the stairs, back to his room.
“Did I say anything wrong?” She thought to herself, as she continued to look at him until he was completely out of sight.
As she sat alone at the table, wondering what she had gotten herself into, Grace walked in slowly and stood next to her.
“Is the Master done eating?”
Amanda raised her head slowly, to look at the maid, and then she nodded in affirmation.
She too had lost her appetite, she got up slowly and walked back to her room, wondering what was wrong with what she said.
Amanda lay on her bed silently, filled with so many thoughts, first was how she was going to deal with her strange husband whom she clearly didn’t know anything about, making it very difficult for her to understand.
Secondly, she wondered what she was going to be doing in the huge Manor, she didn’t have any plans to be idle.
Finally, she thought about her brother, who was the main reason for her huge sacrifice.
“I hope he gets better.”
Her father had warned her not to call home till after a month, that was to make sure that she didn’t think of running away and returning home.
“What’s that sound?” Amanda said with a whisper, and then she raised her head slowly, to listen carefully to the sound she was hearing from the wall.
Pushing herself up from the bed, she put on her slippers, and then she wore her night robe, just before she followed the sound slowly.
It led her outside the room, to Kyle’s door.
“Yes, Kyle! Right there! Harder! Harder!”
Amanda gasped, she couldn't believe her ears.
“Yes! Go deeper, I am about to c*m!l” The female voice engrossed in intense ecstasy moaned loudly, forcing Amanda to cover her ears with both hand, after taking off her right ear from the door. .
She moved backward from the door, but she slipped and staggered, almost falling to the ground.
“Who is there?”
