"Those papers contain the set of rules and regulations of this marriage that you need to keep and walk in orderly in it." He scoffed angrily
"At no point and no account should you break one of them. If not, you're gonna be punished severely" he whispered with gritted teeth while leaning closer to me with his finger still pointing in the papers' direction.
I stiffed on the wall that I was leaning on after hearing his torturing words. I opened my mouth to speak, but my jaw ached, causing me to gasp in pain, and I quickly bent down, breathing heavily as tears began to leach down from my eyes to the rock carpet.
At that moment, I couldn't control the cries that were boiling heavily in my throat. I quickly broke down with my wedding dress and covered my face on my knees, sobbing.
He chuckled defeatingly in a mocking tone, pulling himself a bit back from me and beginning to pace the room slowly a bit with his hands crossing together around his back waist.
After a while, he stopped and walked down in my direction. "Hm. I don't know what you are crying, but what I know is that you have to do what I say," he murmured, squatting down in front of me.
"When you finish shedding your crocodile tears, make sure you go and grab those papers and read them so that you can keep them to avoid being punished if you love yourself." He scoffed mockingly as his lips curled into an evil smirk.
"In fact," he said, turning himself and picking those papers on the bed. " Look, I've grabbed a couple of mine. Now, look up and take yours," he yelped with gritted teeth, flinging the papers in front of me, but my head was so heavy at that moment, causing my neck to become weak. I couldn't lift my face to stare at him as I kept sobbing.
"Reana, I say, look up now" he commanded firmly in a cold tone but I couldn't responded.
Immediately, I felt someone's hand in my long banded hair, grabbing it hard and forcingly lifting my face, causing my face to crease in pain.
"Ouch!" I exclaimed, wincing, gasping, and whimpering in pain.
"I commanded you to look up, and you refused; who do you think you are?" He grunted, asking with gritted teeth as he kept breathing heavily.
"What the hell is wrong with you, uh? Why did you disrespect my voice?" He asked sternly in a whispering tone with gritted teeth, glaring at me with those dangerous evil eyes, sending shocks of hotness all over my body as his grip became tighter.
"Oop! Shit!" I exclaimed, closing my eyes and trying to hold his hand but he snapped my hands away and kept dragging my hair. Swinging my head from side to side. "Oh my god, oh my god" I gasped and swallowed heavily. " You're hurting me" I screeched out
" Shhh… shut up. Shut up" he yelled, dragging hard my hair and causing my gaze to face up. " How does that concern me? How is that my business?" He chuckled evilly.
Is that an answer to my questions? Why did you disrespect my voice?" he yelled
"Oh my god, oh my god, it's okay, it's okay, please" I swallowed as the pain became unbearable. "Please, I will not do it again. Please… I'm sorry" I screamed, crying loud
He flings my hair away after hearing my screaming, causing my head to bang hard on the wall. "You're full of shit." He mumbled and hissed while standing up. "Just be careful in this house, if not, I will kill you and bury you in the cemetery.
Nobody would dare ask me of you, idiot" he said with gritted teeth and kicked my legs before turning and walking out.
Opening the door, he turned his gaze again to me. " Make sure you stand up, pick those papers, and read the rules and regulations in it if you love your life because if you don't read. Hm." He scoffed and shook his head gently as his lips curled into an evil smile before slamming the door closed.
I lay down there, absorbing the pains that were flowing in my body, starting from my head to my toes, as I kept groaning in pain. Heavy tears kept drifting down from the corners of my eyes.
"Why is he torturing me like this? Why is he torturing me like this? Oh my god, why?" I sobbed.
" With all that I have been through in life, I still ended up with a madman. A man who has no mercy for human beings.
No, I didn't expect my life to be like this. No, I didn't." I shook my head weakly on the floor and sniffed, sobbing while mumbling words to myself.
"Why did things turn out this way against me? God, is it because of my offenses that could make you use him and punish me? Oh my God, forgive me and help me out" I mumbled, letting out a sigh of frustration.
I laid down there and sobbed bitterly for quite a bit of time as I kept mumbling words of frustration to myself. After a while, I rolled myself and sluggishly sat up but leaned my back on the wall, sobbing.
Picking those papers, I went through those rules and regulations and threw them aside angrily after reading and sobbing. " Oh my gosh. What kind of marriage is this? With all these rules? What am I putting myself into?" I have not seen this kind of marriage since I was born."
My mind kept wandering around, asking questions that had no answer. I couldn't grab the reasons he married me if he was to treat me like shit. "Am I not beautiful enough for someone to look at? Why is he treating me as if he hasn't seen any beauty in me?" I asked myself as my mind kept wandering around.
Causing so many thoughts and questions to arise in my heart. After a while, I felt my eyes gradually become heavy; I strapped myself down on the foamy rock carpet without removing my wedding dress and closed my eyes to sleep.
Immediately, I heard my room's door sound as a knock came to it. I hissed, blinked my eyes open, and rolled myself to stand up, but my body was overwhelmed by weakness, causing me to lay back flat again.
The knock sounded again twice on my door but this time it was louder than before, causing anger to crip through my heart.
I rolled my eyes and hissed angrily. "Who is that?" I managed to screech out, asking angrily
