Chapter 21 - chapter 20

ARIELLE COWELL POV

I arrived at the airport and had to wait for the

only flight coming in from France that had not yet

landed. I pray he arrives today. If not I will have

to wait here till he comes. I can't go back to the

villa for I don't know what peal is up to this time

around and I don't have another home as my

family is blood-sucking vampires and I am left

with the safest place which is the resort but it will

take me time to reach and I have to make sure l

am the first to see Gabrielle when he comes to

avoid misunderstandings and further schemes.

My life is a mystery full of negativity but I won't

let it go it's way, I squat down at the waiting area

but as time drew closer I became more nervous

and restless with too many negative thoughts

clouding my mind, considering adding to the fact

that I felt unwell and had to vomit a couple of

times in the past 4 hours but still felt no better

I need to go for a checkup.

Maybe these could be food poisoning. I space front and back constantly checking the time, my mind frequently blacking out thinking of the worst scenario of the whole thing being true.

I couldn't help but cry at some point I felt so

unsafe, unprotected, and insecure I badly

needed a hug from Gabrielle and words like "it's

okay" "am here" but none came l cried bitterly for

like 30 minutes which attracted the attention of

passers-by and those around me

Some confronted me not knowing the reason

behind my tears while others looked at me with

pity and judgemental eyes but I cared less all i

wanted at that time was to let out my pain and

frustration through my tears

DIVINA COWELL POV

I can't believe I was tricked by that little bitch,

now I have to be the sacrificial lamb... No way I

refuse to be married to that rapist. I have to think

of a way, I have to think of something. I mean

Why should I be the one to be sacrificed? I did

everything for these days to be my happiest but

it's turning to the worst.... Who did I offend? Why

Is this happening to me? All I have ever wanted is

to marry the man of my dreams, a rich, caring,

hardworking and doting husband who will spoil

me with goodies and I can spend lavishly without

restraint.

But it seems my dreams are far from coming to

reality thanks to that witch, NO No NO I CAN'T

MARRY HIM. I snap out of my thoughts and sit in

the back of the car trying to gather my thoughts

together. WHAT SHOULD I DO... what can I do l

felt so restless I could feel myself sweating under

the air conditioner what's happening it must be a

dream and when I wake up it will all be over

I Try to convince myself but these dreams seems

to be so real which gives me the cribs. I need to

act fast "take the next turn"i ordered the driver

"but miss Divina we will be late for your wedding

and more to that your mother has left a message

asking where you are as she is already there with

the rest of the family"

[Father and Divine)

"Never mind, let's go. I guess I have no other

choice than to be the bride"

"miss what do you mean by you don't have a

choice? I thought it was your wedding."

"If I were you I would keep my nose out of my

employer's business."

"I'm sorry, miss"

"you better be".

I can't believe

my life is taking this turn in such a short

period... will soon get married to one of the

cruelest, wicked, mannerless, man on the planet

in a couple of minutes how unlucky I thought

He is one of the beings I hate the most, but come

to think of it all hope is not lost.

yes since I will

not get the man of my dreams I will certainly

make sure the cause of my predicament those Not stay happy,I will use my PISELL'S power and

connections to make sure she stays unhappy for

the rest of her life..she will certainly end up in a

more miserable condition than I am in now and

there will be one to safe her

"Arielle you're a torn on my flesh and it's because

of you that I am facing whatsoever is happening

in my life right now and thus your happiness is

my greatest desire for I won't leta single smile

crip on your lips again. I will make sure you suffer

100 times the pain, disgrace, agony, humiliation,

and frustration I am going through right now.

The car stops in front of the church and I step

down not forgetting to pick up the bucked of pink

roses. Too bad I hate pink.

Mom could not hide

the surprise on her face as she kept throwing

glances at me while my father and brother seems

to be careless of my situation I felt like it doesn't

matter to them if I am the bride or not all they

cared about is their monev which was ready to

start spending ones am declared his wife. But

did not expect any better treatment as I very

much know who they are, we are bound only in

terms of money, not love and affection.

But at this momentI couldn't help but be a bit

judgemental... at least they should show some

sentiments or pretend to have one, am doing

these for their benefit it's for the betterment of

their lives..as for my twin Divine he has nothing

beneficial to do with the money offered to him

other than taking girls in an out of expensive

hotels buying cars to show off and consuming

hard drugs.

His life is so messed up, for dad he will gamble

everything away while my mom will go after rich

men and shopping like 4 timesa week not to

mention has to love for vacation but me I will be

tortured day and night, I will be raped, beaten

and they will enjoy. tears roll down my cheeks as

these thoughts jungle up and cloud my sense of

reasoningI deserve better ... deserve better

I reach the alter and Pisell takes my hand in his

and the priest reads out the vows whichI paid no

attention to, for I do not have plans of following

these stupid vows for me it's just formalities.

After everything was done we celebrated with the

guest and this pervert does not leave any

opportunity to lay his filthy hands on my body

and his mouth on my mind. I feel like throwing

up. I mean how did I end up in such a situation?

DIVINE POV

Mom planned everything well but seeing Divina

as the bride came as a great shock, to mom, dad,

and me, but for me, all I care about is the cash.

Sister ARIELLE would have been the best bride

but since it is not her Divina is not a bad choice. I

can't wait to get my hands on my share of the

money. Oh my world, 15million in My Bank account with 40 million extra for realizing the marriage,

what a great deal.

l am most fortunate to have been blessed with 2

beautiful sisters whose mission on earth is to

make me rich God is great, taking my girl out

tonight for some fun she deserves it nothing

matters more than the money in my account

right nowl am rich overnight all thanks to Divana

and I will never run broke because she will

always help me when I need some more money

Am so proud of Divina as her marriage has

brought more fortune to the family than that of

Arielle but not to worry both girls have made me

earn the reputation l have been craving for since

when I was a kid and reading all those comic

books.

A billionaire playboy how sweet.

GABRIELLE ADSENCE POV

I reciprocated the hug. I felt so happy and

content seeing her, she knows how to make me

happy. I was not expecting this surprise and here

she is... giving me the best surprise of my life. I

love this woman so much.

"Arie, how did you know I will be coming today,I

mean I told no one so how did you find out?"

she sniffed which alerted me

"Why are you crying? what's wrong"

I asked worriedly which led to her outburst she

cried for like 10 minutes nonstop in my embrace

which I just held her and let her cry after she had

cried to her satisfaction she cleaned her eyes and

looked up at me

"GAB I MISS YOU"

and yeah that got me I pull him in for a tighter

hugI MISS YOU TOO I responded

"no let me finish for I might not have the courage to tell you after

this"

she requested as have her listening ears

attention you have my full attention

"I am happy I am your wife, and to say I like you

is an understatement for I wishI knew of a better

word. Life without you has been hell, the

servants at home do not listen to me and they

treat me like trash, not to mention peal who has

made my life so unbearable and mom who

misses no opportunity to remind me how terrible

of a choice l am for you

Gabrielle I am Not asking for too much, all I want is you not your wealth or anything else I just want

you. Secondly, I devise a video from you and a

device paper from you already signed ...much

have not signed because I so much want it to be

untrue,I don't want lo to leave you so that's the

reason I kept the paper unsign date

So tell me are you not into me?"
