After discovering that he was a monster he fled away. Going to one of the powerful magician known. His whole life changed when he told him he was cursed by his past wife.
Layla was one of the powerful witches know. She could create or break spells. She curses or lift the curses. And of cause she cursed him after he broke her heart. That was all for revenge , to know how it feels like to be loved and be hated just the next day. The people whom you love to not accept you fully. To not accept the darkest parts of you.
He forced for the magician to take this curse away but it was impossible. The one way was if a girl loved him though he was a monster which was impossible as they say. Which girl would accept to live with a monster , to even look at him.
Well the other way was to never fall in love again. Because every time he fell in love he would turn into the monster.
He thought the magician was joking , not when all magicians told him the same thing. Not even witches could lift the curse.
One other way you can escape is to kill your self of cause. But what happens when you can't die?
"Love is supposed to mold into something wonderful , something beautiful. But let's what happens when it turns you to a monster? When you can't escape like I did?"
Layla made sure death was no escape. She made sure he would live with it for all eternity. Maybe she just wanted him to never love a girl in his life.
All making him the cruelest man ever known. His way of avoiding love was hate. He took out his frustrations on his victims , killing , slaughtering souls. His hate made him crave for power , thirst for control. It was his way of turning away from his hideous past.
But then he had to do his dirty work underground. He had to hide from generation to generation. Because of cause people would notice, he had to fake his death from time to time. He had to alternatively change his name to keep a 'low profile'. Yet he still had the world wrapped under his finger. He had it do whatever he wanted without it even knowing.
Promoting war , crime and the world did at his will.
Until now he decided to show his face to the world. Known as Athan Meyer the most powerful billionaire known. And of cause the most handsome ever seen.

"How are you feeling?" Amanda asked as she played around with my hair.
"Nervous to be honest. I mean I can't believe this is finally happening." I said with a wide smile over my face.
"I'm so happy for you." She was already putting the finally touches in my hair.
"I'll call Nicky to start with your makeup." She walked to the door living my alone. I sighed as she shut the door behind her. Sure I was happy but also not sure about this. It didn't feel right , like there was something I was missing.
I couldn't wait for this day but now that it's here it felt all wrong. Suddenly someone busted into the room
"Hey Rae." Nick came striding towards me with what looked like a make-up kit.
"Are you okay?" She asked noticing the worry in my face.
"I'm fine." I got up from my sit and left her anxious in the room. I went searching for my sister. I know he could be very good at this things and right now I really needed some advice.
"April!" I called out the moment I saw her. She was standing afar talking on the phone. The moment she saw me confusion filled her face.
"I'll talk to you later okay." She hangs the phone focusing her attention on me.
"Are you okay?" She asked concerned.
" Yeah I'm fine… No I'm not… I'm.." I sighed trying to regain my calm. " Look I'm not sure okay. I don't know. I thought maybe you could give some advice."
" But you should not be here right now!" She pointed out eying me from head to toe.
"Please sis. I can really use your help right now." I begged sure to give her the puppy eyes.
"Okay fine." I smiled as she said. "Follow me." She dragged me towards the main house. We got on the backside door which led right to the kitchen.
"So what's the matter?"
"Look I'm not very sure about this. It's just… it doesn't feel right at all." Before my sister could talk we heard muttering voices inside the living room.
"Were you expecting anyone here?" I whispered.
" No." She looked confused too. We both followed each other to the living room to.
"Ohhh yeah baby… Give it to me." As they came closer the voices grew louder. Me and April looked at each other uneasy . It sounded like a man and a woman and I hoped they were not doing whatever I imagined they were doing. I peered from the door and saw figures in the sofa. They were both naked.
As I tried sneaking to room but as usual my sister came in louder.
"Hey ! What f**k you think you doing here!" The two figures abruptly stopped and jumped away from each other.
Then a familiar face noticed me from across the room.
"Raven what are doing here?" His eyes widened.
"Really Jaden? Her of all people? And you really had to do it on our wedding day?" I was deeply hurt , broken in the very same moment. He knew I hated Jane.
"Look I'm sorry. I didn't mean to?" He pleaded as he tried to find his clothing.
"Of cause you didn't." I threw him with the boxers that I just picked up. I was so disgusted I couldn't even set my eyes on him. I just whirled on my heels and walked away.
"Raven! But it's not my fault… you wouldn't even let me touch you. How was I supposed to feel?"
" She's a virgin Jaden." My sister followed me behind as he explained to him.
" Vir… what, I didn't know she was a virgin. She didn't tell me."
" I didn't need to tell anything Jaden. You should have trusted me and you just decided to go behind my back. But it's fine , my virginity is something you didn't deserve anyways." I walked out of the house averting my tears from falling.
"How come? But…"
"Look Jaden. Showing off my booty and dancing in night clubs doesn't mean I slept with a every boy I ever met. It's not a qualification but I guess it is a qualification for hoes I guess." I glared at Jane before walking away. "Which I'm not."
"Don't touch me!" I pushed his hand away.
" But Raven? Let's talk about this."
" We have nothing to talk about. You've already made your point." I walked away without even looking back.
"You've heard the lady." April ordered him away.
" Hey are you okay?" April came running catching up to me.
"Yeah I guess. After all I was right about this feeling wrong. "
" I'm sorry you had to see that. I didn't know he was such a jerk."
" It's fine sis. At least that lifted a big wait off my shoulders. Now I don't have to do something that I would have probably regretted by the end."
" We'll get through this… together." I embarrassed her in tight hug .
" Of cause." She also held me close. I was so happy that my sister was always with me through the hardest times. She's the best bigger sister ever.
"So what now?" She asked pulling away.
" Well the people have to know there's is no more wedding." I walked towards my car. I ordered one of the gaurds to get my keys. As he did I drove to where the wedding was supposed to take place.
As I walked in with my sister everyone looked concerned. We both walked to the stage and asked for the mic.
"Can I have everyone's attention!" I shouted as the people were starting whispers with the people around them.
"You probably asking yourselves what am I doing here? Where's the broom? Isn't the wedding supposed to happen in the next thirty minutes?" I sighed looking at my sister , she smiled encouraging me to continue.
"Well I'm here to tell the wedding is cancelled. There's is no more wedding." Everyone gasps in surprise. Muttering whispers start filling the whole hall.
"Shut up!" I had to shout to get their attention.
"Look I know this is all so sudden but it is what it is. I can't marry a man who doesn't respect my decisions." I left everyone shocked asking themselves what just happened. But I was final and I had made my decision.
"Raven you can't do this!" Jaden rushed in blocking my path. I pushed him away trying to pass but he stood still not allowing me to pass.
"Can you please move out of my way ?" I held my hand in my waist disgusted as I set my eyes on him.
"Do you know who I am? So you think you can do anything you want?"
" Yes! And get out of my way. Being rich doesn't make you a boss of me."
" Actually it does." He smirked reminding me he's the one who still gave me my job.
"You can do whatever you want Jaden." I pushed him and walked past. At this moment I wasn't going to let him get his way.
