Chapter Fourteen: BIRTHDAY PARTY 4
Betty pull Elinor's parent to a corner, more people already fill the party but that's not her problem right now, what did Verdun say to them to make them this unorganized, scared and confused " what's wrong " mumbling I look at them " what did that man say to worry you two like this, should I beat him up "
Mama swiftly lift her head and stare at me, worry could be seem in those eyes as she shake her head " no my dear, you must not get on his nerve " she rush her words " he is not someone to mess with "
" what do you mean??" I asked feeling worry slowly build up in me " why are you two looking this way, what's wrong??" My voice came out shaken, papa look at me then exhale
" alpha Verdun wants you " papa mumble, face void of emotion " not to marry but....." Stepping back I shake my head cutting his sentence short, has his mistress?? That will ruin I and my family reputation
" am engaged "
Mama hold my hand and pull me to the kitchen, locking the door " look Betty, Dont think we want to do this, this is your birthday party and you should be happy but then what alpha Verdun wants he gets"
" why??? Why do he want me??"
" only him can answer that question"
" why are you scared of him??" I asked looking defeated " being his mistress will ruin my reputation, our reputation "
" is better to be his mistress than to die!!" It was the first time she ever rise her voice at me " if you don't do this, our family will be destroyed, not just reputation but our lives gone.. Alpha Verdun isn't to be mess with "
" than we ask lord Norman for help, he is a lord, he should be able to help "
I watch mama shake her head " lord Norman serve under alpha Verdun Betty " her gaze met mine and all I could see in them are pity and sadness " he wish to take you with him to magar tomorrow "
" I refuse" growling, frown creep into my face " I refuse to belong with him, where is he??" Ignoring my mama I walk out of the kitchen, eyes roaming the whole place but he is no where to be found
My gaze land on lord Norman and I fasten my steps towards him " you will not let him take me will you?? You will not let my reputation to be ruined " I stare at him, he look defeated, his hands run through his hair
" am sorry "his voice low " Verdun gets whatever he wants "
" not me!" I half groan " where is he??"
" the blue parlor "
The moment I heard that I didn't spare lord Norman another glance as I fight my way through the crowd to the blue parlor room, shutting the door I watch him stand looking through the window to the city, his hands at his back " i was expecting you "
" how could you think such things!!" I growl, my anger resurfacing " making me a mistress??"
" what?" He ask turning only his head to take a glance at my face, a smile form on those lips " do you think you deserve more??"
" what do you mean" moving towards him I watch him turn around, one of his eyebrows inch high " I deserve more than that, isn't marriage better to listen to??" To my surprise he chuckle shaking his head
" marriage??" I watch him move closer " why on earth will I want to get married to you, don't get me wrong....I only want you for my bed, I want to own you in and out "
" you're sick " yelling I fight the urge of crying, crying that he couldn't even see me as a wife but a mistress, someone to only entertain him in bed
" yes maybe am sick, am so fucking sick that if I don't have you I will lose my mind, this lust is running me mad, I want to make you a woman then maybe..." I watch his eyes devour my body " then maybe discard you if I have had enough "
When the words leave his mouth I step back covering my mouth with my hands, how could he think of such things, how could he see me in such a way, I thought he felt something, something special " don't make me the bad guy here, I know you want me"
" want you???" I yell looking more annoyed " why will I want someone like you, someone that wish to ruin my family reputation and I??? Someone that sees me as only a discard able thing??"
" so what " he move closer and hold my chin forcing me to look at him " I will not appreciate it if you rise your voice at me, no body does that and you won't be the first " anger creep into his face, I should be the one angry, I should be the one looking like I could kill someone " you will come with me to malgar tomorrow"
Slapping his hands off my face I look at him feeling irritation " over my dead body, if you ever touch me or sleep with me by then I would have been dead " I growl feeling my blood boiling " I will never accept any of these, you might as well rape me to death " not waiting for his reply I turn around and leave the blue parlor room
" Betty, Betty " ignoring Elinor's voice I hurry to my room, get rid of my dress before putting on one of my trousers, shirt and tieing my hair in a ponytail, bring out a small bag then begin packing the little I can " Betty??" Elinor voice fill with surprise as she shut the door " I heard what's happening "
" then you must know why am running " moving to my closet I pick up the bag of silver coins, coins I have made from painting
" do you really have to go??" When she said that I stop moving then shoot her a glare " you have always been in love with him "
" maybe Elinor's but he doesn't feel that way, he has lust for me not love " growling I shove the coin in my bag " I do not love him Elinor, yes I had a crush on him but that little crush vanish the moment he wish for me to be his mistress not wife, someone that only please him in the bed, someone discard able "
" what about me??" Elinor cried silently " what will I do if you leave "
" I don't know but if they try forcing you into any marriage run, run out of here and find what you want, I promise to come back and check on you" pulling her in for a hug I fought back tears " maybe this way I can start searching for my brother, maybe he is alive somewhere. Maybe he is also looking for me"
Elinor nod then withdraw from the hug, she clean her tears " yes, you need to leave, I will not wish for you to be anyone mistress, you deserve better " Elinor smile touching my cheek " I will miss you and your naked men painting "
" once again, it was your idea "
" you loved it "we chuckle before I jump out through the window, music still loud even when one of the birthday celebrant is running away. Refusing to look back I ran away, far away from Verdun, far from the man I hate
Far from the man I keep seeing my future with, from the man whose lips touched mine first, from the man that wish to ruin my life
I won't regret this, my only prayer is for him not to search for me.
