Chereads / Mafia's Ice princess / Chapter 11 - Joshua

Chapter 11 - Joshua

Scarlet's POV

Why did he have to be so attractive?

Why did he want me as his wife?

Why me?

I wonder. His voice breaks my trance "Scar, you are my beautiful wife and queen." He says with kindness lacing.

I didn't know what you

We're going through

I thought that you were fine

Why did you have to hide?

I didn't want to let you down

But the truth is out

It's tearing me apart

Not listening to my heart

I had to go

And I would never stop you

Even though it changes

Nothing has to change

And you can find me in the space between

Where two worlds come to meet

I'll never be out of reach

'Cause you're a part of me

So you can find me in the space between

You'll never be alone

No matter where you go

We can meet in the space between

And nothing can stay the same

It's growing pains

Be proud of all the scars

They make you who you are, oh-oh-oh

I know you have to stay

But I'll never really leave you

Nothing has to change

Even though we've changed

And you can find me in the space between

Where two worlds come to meet

I'll never be out of reach

'Cause you're a part of me

So you can find me in the space between

You'll never be alone

No matter where you go

We can meet in the space between

There are no words left to say

We know you've got to find your place

But this is not the end (no)

You're part of who I am

Even if we're worlds apart

You're still in my heart

It will always be

You and me, yeah!

You can find me in the space between

Where two worlds come to meet

I'll never be out of reach

I'll never be out of reach, no

'Cause you're a part of me

So you can find me in the space between

You'll never be alone

No matter where you go

We can meet in the space between

Yeah, no matter where you go

No matter where you go

We can meet

In the space between

This reminds me of my Uncle's family and boyfriend. I start crying. "Scarlet, why are you crying?" He asks. "I miss my uncle's family." "O-oh well you have me and your parents here." He says trying to cheer me up. I wipe my tears. "Get changed." He says, leaving.

I look at the gown he bought me and slip it on.

I look in the mirror and gasp. I twirl in my gown. I brush my hair.

I apply white lipstick and eye shadow. I look at the mirror and smile a little.

Why wasn't I happy?

Should I be happy?

I miss my uncle.

Why do I feel like someone staring at me?

I turn to see Joshua. Joshua's eyes roam all over my body and meet mine. He smirks " You look gorgeous. " "You look handsome. " My eyes land on his hair. "Hold it," I say more like a demand. "Bend down." He kneels in front of me. I do his hair. " Better." He stands up and looks at my mirror "Thanks."

*At Winter ball*

As we walk in everyone gasps. I scan the room and my eyes land on Issac, Maddie, and Sin. Maddie looks up and meets my eyes. I look down as we walk. "Will you dance with me?" I smile and accept.

The song comes on.

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me a higher love

Think about it, there must be a higher love

Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above

Without it, life is a wasted time

Look inside your heart, and I'll look inside mine

Things look so bad everywhere

In this whole world, what is fair?

We walk the line and try to see

Falling behind in what could be, oh

Bring me a higher love

Bring me a higher love, oh

Bring me a higher love

Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me higher love (oh)

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me a higher love

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me higher love (oh)

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me a higher love

Worlds are turning, and we're just hanging on

Facing our fear, and standing out there alone

A yearning, yeah, and it's real to me

There must be someone who's feeling for me

Things look so bad everywhere

In this whole world, what is fair

We walk the line and try to see

Falling behind in what could be, oh

Bring higher love (My love)

Bring higher love, oh (Oh)

Bring higher love (My love)

Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me higher love (Oh)

Bring me higher love, love

Bring me a higher love

Bring me a higher love (Oh, bring me, love)

Bring me a higher love, oh (We need a higher love)

Bring me a higher love (Bring me, bring me, yeah)

A higher love I keep thinking of, oh

(Bring me a higher love)

Bring me higher love, love

(Bring me a higher love)

Bring higher love (Oh)

(Bring me a higher love)

Bring me higher love, love

A higher love I keep thinking of, oh

Bring me a higher love

(Bring me higher love, love)

Bring me a higher love, oh (Bring me a higher love)

As were dancing He says "Why are you shocked?" "My friends are here." He growls "No you're not leaving me to talk to them." I bow my head in submission. He lifts my head with his finger and we dance until the song changes. He drags me to a room and pins me on the wall. He growls "You're mine remember that. I didn't wait for 20 years. I knew where you were I just had to not come and scare you away.

He knew.

HE FUCKING KNEW.

HE FUCKING LIED TO ME.

" YOU LIED TO ME!" I shout. He chuckles "From your view, not mine tho. You came willing for your actual parents, not me. I'll make you stay here forever." He looks at me before ripping off my dress. I wail "That was a nice dress!" He says "I'll buy you more dresses." moving his hands on my hips and tracing my curves with his hands. He stops at my butt and slaps it. I scowl "What was that for!" "Not coming for me." kissing my neck.
