Ariella pov…
I stretched as the sunlight hit my face through the silk curtains. When I opened my eyes, Felix was absent.
I looked through the room he wasn't there weird. Perhaps I should…
No, no, Ari, don't look for that jerk.
Yea, he is going to marry a concubine.
So he doesn't deserve my attention.
I freshened up, then Silver came in with two maid's and dressed me in a beautiful black gown with a tight corset.
When I looked at my reflexion in the mirror, I gasped. My makeup was neatly done, and my hair was in a neat bun that complimented my dress well.
I was eager to find Felix cause, though I was mad, it was appropriate for me to spend my first Moon festival ball with my husband.
"Oooooooh, I see someone is ready" I heard a voice from behind.
"Ralph. Oh my god, you look amazing" I turned around to see him smiling warmly at me.
He wore a black suit with a golden design on his left arm side.
"Wow our outfits match love" he said, smirking. Yeah, my ball gown had a touch of gold on the neckline, forming a necklace and at the bottom.
He wore some rings, and I also wore my diamond jewelry.
"So who's your date" I asked him as we walked down the hallway.
"Well I don't quite have one yet" he said, looking at me with a smirk. Oh, if he thinks I would be his date, then that is hilarious.
Hmmm, I wonder where Felix is, I haven't seen him since.
We were both chatting and laughing when my question was answered.
Once a jerk, always a jerk Ari.
How dare he.
Well, act like you don't give a damn.
"Wait isn't that your husband with sofia" Ralph exclaimed as we saw them form a distance in matching dark blue clothes.
I would kill that bitch very very soon..
No no Ari you don't fight over a man.
Yea I'll act cool.
I gave him a nod as I looked down, then suddenly Ralph hugged me "am sorry Ari, but he isn't usually like this".
I gave him a smile "common you should know by now am not the jealous type"
"Well yea Ari. But how about we teach him a lesson
"Now am interested, so spill the beans" I said all excited. I could see Felix staring at us wide eyed as Sofia kept blabbering about something. He was less interested and his gaze was on us as Ralph whispered the whole plan in my ear.
When he was done I squealed in excitement.
"you're a genius handsome" I whispered back to him.
And me leaning in to Ralph kind of drove Felix off the edge cause he marched upto us fuming with rage.
"ouch, where are you taking me" I kept struggling to get free as Felix dragged me away from Ralph to an empty room on the second floor.
Immediately we entered he slammed the door and locked it before turning to me.
I stared at him in horror then got angry "what was th…" before I could finish he smashed his lips on mine. He was kiss8ng me so fast while I kept struggling to get free.
I mustered up all my strength and pushed him away "what the hell was th…" 8 started but he once again interrupted me by kissing me again.
I tried to push him again but he was quick to hold my hands, slowly he stopped kissing me fast and became slow.
I didn't kiss him back and just stayed still.
Ari don't fall for it okay.
Yea I know he is pretending.
Soon he pulled away and we both were panting, he looked at me with a sad expression.
"please stop pushing me away" he said and sounded like he was begging me.
"well you should have thought of me before you decided to take a concubine. And Sofia of all people really, and you expect me to give you hugs and kisses certainly NO" I yelled angrily.
He held my hand but i snatched it.
"Ariella I have my reason for that, you have to believe that I still love only you"
"yea right. This believe that you speak of I have none for you" I said with a stern tone.
I was done trusting him and getting hurt, I didn't want this life to be like the last. Now I truly regret why I chose him in this life too, all men are truly all the same jerks.
He went to say something but I stopped him "when is the wedding" I asked.
He was hesitant, then I spoke "don't lie to me".
He sighed then answered "in two days", this was unbelievable I am really a fool.
I huffed then angrily left the room, as I came out I saw Ralph and Sofia in the distance.
"Are you okay" Ralph asked and I nodded while Sofia looked at me with pure hatred. She scoffed before entering the room while I turned to Ralph with a smile.
"Handsome I've found you a date" I said with a smirk and he raised an eyebrow.
"well lemmi guess….you"
I nodded then he thought for some time then we both locked hands and headed for the massive ball room on the second floor.
Felix pov…
Seeing my wife like my Ariella hugging another man and whispering in his ears I couldn't take it anymore.
I marched up and dragged her to an empty room, when she tried questions me I kissed her hard.
But in the end she left, she was even wearing matching outfits with Ralph like what the hell.
I was beyond angry, then suddenly the worst creature on earth entered and started questioning me. You can take a guess, Sofia fucking Delric James.
Stay calm Felix
Yeah I'll act well.
"what the hell was that Felix" she said as she entered but I ignored her.
"It's like you love her" yes I love her duh she's my wife.
"oh beautiful I hate her, I just called her to remind her to stop glaring at you" I lied with a sweet smile. I wanted to barf, funny thing she believed me… fool.
Well she locked hands with me and we left for the ballroom.
It felt really weird to wear matching outfits with this girl but her parents would be there so I have to make my act believable.
As I entered everyone bowed except Ralph cause he was a king too, and well Ariella.
I made my way up to the stairs at the middle with Sofia, and stood in the middle. Ralph told Ariella something in her ear then with a boring look she joined me.
I cleared my throat then stepped forward leaving Ariella one step behind, I could see Sofia looking at her with a stupid smirk.
How dare you smirk at my wife.
Well Felix calm down.
I soo wanted to punch her useless face.
Calm down.
"I welcome everyone to the Blood Moon diary night, please enjoy yourself but not too much because the day after tomorrow will be my wedding with my lovely Sofia Delric".
After I was done everybody clapped happily including Ariella my wife. She had this uninterested look on her face.
Wait she doesn't feel angry or sad that she will be sharing her husband.
It's like she doesn't care about me again. Sofia was very happy and as we came down the stairs her parents came to greet us.
I fake a smile and show I was happy then Sarz signaled for me and I left her.
When I went upto him, I saw him standing with Ralph and someone I never thought i'd see again Arnold Leon.
"I see the playboy Leaon hasn't changed one bit" Ralph said with a smirk, I looked at him and smirked too "but I heard he had a forced marriage and must commit" I say grinning.
Arnold never like the idea of staying with one girl, his parents had enough of him and forced him to marry Natasha a Dutch's daughter.
He was 25 years like me and Ralph, we were all childhood friends.
"well what can I say mate I'm not the only married one" he said to me with a smirk.
I looked at him then patted him on the back "it's good to see you, just don't get yourself in trouble okay".
"well Ralph you see he's treating me like a kid again"
I looked at him "well you're worse than a kid".
"okay Filly stop with the habit" Ralph said to me as he was trying so hard not to laugh. I glared at him, he knows I hate that nickname but he just won't stop.
Arnold turned to me "well bro where's your wife" he asked impatiently and I gave him a glare.
"Arnold that girl is perfection, but he can't see it"
"what you're seriuos, now I really want to see her"
These two were talking about my wife like I wasn't there, I gave Sarz a look and he nodded.
"ouch, what's your problem dude" they said as they looked as Sarz.
Arnold rubbed the back of his head "well you haven't changed, you still listen to this asshole" he said while wiping fake tears.
I glared at him "well he works for me so" I said with a proud smile.
"Man please don't be stingy lemi just see her" he said with a pleading face then I sighed and gave Sarz a nod, then he left.
