My body was shivering as his large cold hand was choking my throat and his other one was pointing a pistol onto my head. I tried to shout for my fiancé, who was soaked in sweat and crossing his eyebrows, but my voice refused to reach him since it fainted away after screaming in my cell, when he suddenly shouted at the perpetrator: "I will say this once again! Please return her"..
"Mister Nouveau riche" barked the perpetrator "I don't think one million dollars would hurt to return your sweet babe" as he pressed the pistol hardly on my head.
I wasn't able to react as i was freezed from this shock, however my tears never accepted to stop.
"Jonathan!! We must pay this amount fastly" commented his father, who loved me wholeheartedly "We have to save little Lili"
"Father! It's the third time she has been used" he replied with a worried yet troubled look "We can't always afford to pay these large amounts"
"But Jon... It's little Lili we must save.." said the father
Jonathan clenched his fists and sank in his thoughts. He closed his eyes, knitted his brows, took a deep breath and murmured: "Bring me the money.."
He payed the perpetrator in change of freeing me, I ran into his side screaming and trembling, he hugged me and whispered that everything will be ok...
Ever since I was engaged to Jonathan Aveline-the CEO of the largest wine company in Britain and the richest, hottest and sweetest guy you can ever find-I encountered many dangers such as abducting, threatening, abusing, harassing and insulting. But he saved me from all of these troubles even if it costs him money, time, reputation or even own life. Up until now, I've only caused him many pain and obstacles.
"I'm sorry, Jon"
"What is it?"
"I'm sorry! I'm a heavy weight to bear.. I've only hurted you.. I'm sorry.."
He replied only with a faint smile on his depressed and gloomy face.
Then, he hugged me, leaned his head on mine and broke the silence by murmuring in my ear: "I'm sorry.. I'm the one who caused you many dangers.. I'm the one who has uncountable enemies"
I wanted to decline him but I couldn't after niticing his weak voice and teary eyes.
"I swear to protect you" he cried
"I will be alright" I replied "Only if you are with me.. "
After 10 days of the accident, Jonathan rushed into my apartment at 2:00 am.
Knock knock!!
"Who is it??" I shouted
"It's Jo-na-than!" he chuckled
As I opened the door he lifted me up and spinned around like a princess from a fairytale. His face sparkled as tiny fireflies.
"Lilian" he claimed "I brought you a teeny tiny lovely gift, go prepare your luggage"
"Huh?!"
...
I did as he ordered and went straight to his fancy car while people are staring at us.
"Where are we going at this hour??" I wondered
"Wait and you will know" he answered as he held my hand "Just watch the road, it's romantic at night"
I tried to watch the night view as he said, but without noticing, my eyes betrayed me into a deep dream.
I woke up when the car was shaking me hardly to notice that it's already dawn. I felt a comfy warmth where i found myself wrapped by his cherubic wings and leaning on his chest.
"You woke up, princess?" he bleated
"I guess I had some comfortable nap"
"Really? Then you liked this bed!"
"stop! That's embarrassing"
As I took a glimpse of the outside, I noticed that we're so far from what's called a "city". It was an eucalyptus wood, covered with golden daffodils.
I felt a sweet breeze tickling my face, escorted with dandelions' floaties. It's a mystical wood!!
"Am I dead?" I wondered "This is probably heaven.. I must have been killed"
Jonathan's giggled and said "You like it? Then you'll totally like my surprise, hehe"
"Surprise?? Is there even more? Is it your "little gift"?"
He only smiled and looked into my eyes. The moment we reached to our destination, I found myself in front of a large, shimmering under the sun's threads, mansion.
"Wow, Jon!" I reacted "Where are we?"
"Did you like it?" he replied "Surprise!!"
"Sooo, where's the little gift.. I've been waiting since 2:00 am"
"Umm.. Taadaa!" he said and pointed at that mansion
"Huh?! The mansion you say? Little you say? Oh yeah"
He, then, held my hand to take a round in the rooms and floors of the house.
It was magnificent, the doors were decorated with rare jades and rubies, the chandeliers were dangled from the ceiling like glistening stars in the space, many mamuth's heads with their sharp ivory horns were hanging on the walls of the halls, a well made stream hedged the palace and was guarded with large walls that no one can ever pass through.
The while seen left me speechless and amazed, however between the heavenly house there landed a lone half-constructed room.
"Jonathan" I asked "What's with that room?"
"Well.." he said "... I don't really know"
"The whole castle is well-built and garnished but this one is left behind. Isn't that weird?"
"Ummm.. Maybe the craftsman died before he finished his job, or there wasn't enough money to finish it. But, well, you know, there's always flaws in anything"
Curiosity blinded me that I wanted eagerly to know what's going on with that room, no matter what it costs..
