Cursed Bride

Chapter 2

Ryan sat frustatedly on the stool near the bar as he chugged down the whisky without stopping for a second. he couldn't believe his father could come up with something like this just to get him married.

he had always been someone who would rather have a one night stand than being in a relationship however for the world he was dating the top model and his childhood friend, Christine Stewart but Ryan knew the truth that she was just another girl to f**k.

he wouldn't have mind marrying Christine because firstly she was his mother's favorite and secondly she was beautiful who would look good beside him but now that he knew her true face that how much of a b***h she was he would never marry her, after all it would be for the rest of his life.

Ryan was very sophisticated man and was someone who would always honor his words and his family didn't believe in divorce. Armando never divorce their wives, they had always been a loyal partner so same was expected from the girl they were to marry.

his father had given him a huge responsibility in order to make him leave his playboy nature. Ryan was not the one who would stay with someone for more than a day. he wasn't worried for the partner it was easy for him to get any girl but he had to find suitable one this time, he wasn't going to give his last name to any girl. he would never disgrace his ancestors by marrying a gold digger w***e.

Ryan mentally laughed at himself as the one who was always chased by the girls now looking for a wife and much to his dismay he couldn't pick a girl just like that after all she were to always stood beside him.

Ryan was busy in his never ending thoughts as he leisurely twirl the glass of whisky in his hand but his thoughts were interuppted by the faint sound of some giggles and his eyes unconsciously searched for the source of disturbance and then his eyes landed on a certain girl.

she just entered the hall with one another girl beside her to whom Ryan didn't pay attention as his eyes were struck on that certain someone.

ocean blue eyes that had the spark of stars in them with light brown wavy hair long enough to cover her lower back, rosy cheeks in contrast of the angelic pale white skin she had and those plump lips, painted with red color complimented the sky blue dress she was wearing till her ankle. Ryan's eyes travel down her swan like neck to her sharp shoulder blade and he couldn't help but notice them and the little cleavage that was peaking out made him took a sharp breath and that tiny waist of her that Ryan could tell he would be able to grab with both of his hand and then the round curve of her cute little ass. she had a fine body and that angelic was the bonus.

Ryan stayed rooted to his place not moving at all, his eyes were struck where he had first spotted her; at the entrance that was now empty. Ryan's heartbeat rose when he again and again memorized her features in his mind making him to come out of the spell she had casted on him. he looked at his chest and slowly palmed it over the suit he was wearing. it was really beating fast, something Ryan had never experienced.

he once again lifted his gaze up to look at her more and he almost felt his heart to stop when he was unable to find her. Ryan felt like he had lost something precious already.

Ryan's eyes scanned the entire hall but she was nowhere to be found and Ryan for a second thought that was she really an angel that dissapeared after showing up for few seconds.

Ryan wanted to hit him for a second after that thought and blamed it all on the alcohol in his system but then again he heard the clicking of heels and the melodious voice coming towards the bar.

there he saw her, that angelic face with a smile on her face, showing that pearly white teeth. they were just few metres away but this another woman with black hair was in between them.

"you know how I always wanted to get married" her voice was filled with melody and Ryan wouldn't mind listening to her all day.

the girl between them chuckled putting a hand on her shoulder "don't worry you will get married soon" her friend reassured her to which blue eyed girl passed her a heart melting smile and Ryan felt like she was killing him with that smile.

Ryan kept looking at the brown hair beauty as she kept talking with her friends though Ryan didn't really focus on what they were talking about as he was way too lost in her, the way she laughed and make weird faces when her friend said something, and her giggles amused him, she was so adorable!

Ryan never liked listening to any girl but he didn't know why he felt like he could listen to her for days. the way she gracefully carry herself and twirl her hair around her finger Ryan felt like she was deliberately teasing him.

Ryan waited and waited for her to notice but she never did wounding his ego as every female in the hall was eyeing him and giving him a look of seduction but this little minx never for once looked at him.

Ryan was getting mesmerised with her every passing second and the negligence of her stir something deep in him and Ryan who had come here to enjoy his night with a girl or two now just wanted to grab this little lady's attention ignoring the attention he was getting.

Ryan observed her patiently and his thoughts wondered how she would look under him, moaning his name and hiding her face in his chest when he would worship that goddess of a body of her.

Ryan no matter, how badly wanted to f**k her but he couldn't. she wasn't one of those girl who he had f****d till now, on the contray she looked far more divine to be touched. she wasn't one of the girl from his class that he could tell as girls from his class were more of a plastic then the beauty but that girl looked natural. her breast wasn't that large but it was perfect A-cups. she had a kind of body that would want him to make love to, someone who would look good beside him.

Ryan smirked as he realised that he had found the one, worthy enough to carry his name for eternity and to be his wife; his bride.

"it's ten already!" her voice was filled with panic "I need to be home otherwise my parents would start to worry" she held her dress a little and walked out of the hall and Ryan couldn't help but imagined her as a Cinderella in that gorgeous sky blue dress.

"ohkay bye! Ariel and take care!" her friend yelled behind her to which Ariel turned her head over her shoulder and waved back at her friend and dissapeared from there not knowing she had captured someone's attention.

"Ariel huh!" Ryan smirked "indeed the princess" he chuckled as her name was as beautiful as her and as melodious as her voice.

"follow the lady in sky blue dress and make sure she gets home safely and she better not notice that she is being followed" Ryan barked at his most trusted man, Andrew over the phone and hanged up as he knew he didn't have to say anything further.

Ryan left the party soon after he got a call from Andrew that she had reached safely "I want all her information on my desk within next twenty hours" and just like that he had every basic details of her.

he read her file carefully double checking each and everything just to make sure he didn't miss anything important, he didn't want to take any chance because if he take her as his wife then he couldn't rectify that as it's against their family beliefs.

Ariel Petrova daughter of Michael Petrova and Arina Petrova, is twenty one years old and only child of her parents.

Ryan saw a attached family photograph of Ariel with an old couple which he assumed were her parents and as he looked intently he noticed that Ariel had got all of her beauty from her mother but with her father's ocean blue eyes.

everything was crystal clear and everything was pleasing about her. she had been an ace student, had recently finished her college degree in interior designing.

"perfect! she would be a great wife" Ryan chuckled to himself and read further but when he read that she had been dating her childhood friend, Ian Xander for five years, his blood boiled in anger but he controlled himself and read further about her parents and turned the last page only to find out a picture of Ian with her.

Ian Xander, Michael Petrova's bestfriend's son has been dating Ariel for five years.

Ryan narrowed his eyes at the information about Ian. there was nothing in details not even his father's name!

Ryan dismissed this thought as his main focus was Ariel not this so called boyfriend of her and hence he didn't wait for long and sent his two men to her home.

Ryan was confident that this time Ariel would not be able to ignore him. he knew she would come as soon as she would get his invitation for dinner tonight after all he was the dream guy of every girl; devilishly handsome and freaking rich, what more girls basically could ask for?

although his mirage was broken when he got to hear that she rejected his invitation and that move of her kind of hurt his ego and clenching his fist he decided to grace her with his presence.

Ariel wasn't what he had think of her, she was quite stubborn and not to mention spitfire who dared to slam the door on his face. Ryan there felt like she had just slapped him on the face by rejecting him.

his eyes were red when he left from there leaving her unharmed. his veins were popping out and his jaw clenched. no one had ever dared to look at him in the eyes and this low life of a girl had the audacity to reject his marriage proposal!

a hurricane was going on inside Ryan, he wanted to hurt the person who had caused him this feeling but when a image of her flash before his eyes he dropped the idea. he didn't knew why he couldn't bring himself to show Ariel her place then and there, he just couldn't!

Ryan however didn't fancy the idea of hurting her directly but there were always other ways to punish anyone and smirked.

"you are going to pay for what you did, sweetheart!" he darkly chuckled and dialled a number and give few orders, planning a perfect punishment for his soon to be bride.

"now it's time to show you my power"
