Violet POV:-

I was getting ready for work, starting my day as usual, trying to get all the negative thoughts out of my mind for as long as I could. As I was getting ready Mum came and said in a low voice,

"Don't come out of this room unless I say so."

"But why Mum?" I asked

"He is Here." She told me as I looked at her in fear, a deadly shiver went down my spine as very bad omens drained my strength. Knowing he is here, his presence in this home gave me immense fright, I never felt this petrified in my life before. I gulped and looked at Mother. "Mum.. he.. He.." I tried to speak but couldn't be able to. "It's okay. I told him you are not fine, lay down and have some rest." I nodded and did as she told me.

After she left, I poured myself a glass of water to calm my vexation. I opened the door and hearing Mother talking to him,

"She is sleeping...Do I wake her up?" Mum said.

"Oh no, Ma'am. Let her sleep. Besides I am here to meet you." he said politely, '' Where were these manners when we met for the first time? Or when he tried to kill my Mother?

"Oh...Come let's sit" They both sat down and began to talk.

"What brings you here?" Mum asked. I took a sip of water. "I am here to decide the date of marriage." I choked on the water when I heard it. Is he out of his mind? I began to cough, the jug of water was empty. I came out of the room to get some water as they both looked at me.

"Are you alright Violet?" He asked, concerned. Giving my great repugnance,

I ignored him and rolled my eyes from him as I went to the Kitchen..

I drank a glass of water to calm myself a bit. But then I heard a voice, "What happened?"

"Nothing..." I replied coldly as my heart began to beat fast in his presence. He sighed and walked towards me as he stood in front of me. I took a step back but he took another step close to me. I stumbled on the counter and gasped in fear when he stood in front of me and said in a low growl,

"What happened, Violet?" His voice never fails to evoke dread in me.

I gulped as my heart began to beat so fast at the closeness. His voice is making me scared. No! No! Don't be scared but I couldn't help it, his presence deluged me in frights.

"I said nothing," I replied coldly again. And this angered him.

"Looks like my future wife needs to be taught a lesson " He held my arms in a tight grip. My heart skipped a beat when he touched me. The word Future wife gave me inexplicable shudders.

"No Way In Hell!" I spat at him. Okay his anger is on his peak by my rudeness but somehow he controlled it and whispered,

"Now Violet, Don't force me to make you"

"Oh yeah, What can you do?"I know what I am doing is not a good thing.

Before I knew it his hands held my waist in a firm grip as his other hand held my jaws. I stiffed by his action, He lean in and snarled,

"What. Happened. Violet.?"

"I said nothing!" I remained stubborn, no matter what, I am not going to subjugate. He cannot touch me without my consent. He cannot force answers out of me, he cannot own me. He lean in as I yanked my head to my side but he held my jaws in a tight grip and forced me to look at him then he whispered in my ears,

"Okay... I shall show you what happens when you disobey me later." My leg became insensible, scaring me to no extent, he never fails to give chills to my bone in a matter of heartbeat. His presence is crushing me and I hate this fact.

When I was about to yell he let go of me and then suddenly said in a concern tone,

"Violet, please calm down. I am just worried about you." Huh?

"Violet..."My mother joined the conversation. That Devil. How dare he. How could he? Faking decency in front of Mum. I gritted my teeth in pure anger as my mum asked,

"What happened dear?"

"Nothing Mum...I just choked on some water,and the water in my room was finished." I explained to her, Because I know she must be angry because I came down when she told me not to.

"I see.. Go to your room." My mum said as I left glaring at him. As I was about to leave but then I heard his voice.

"Our Marriage is in three weeks from wow." I stopped in my tracks and turned to look at him, looking at me with a victorious smirk. I lost my strength when he said it. It can't be real.

"No....." I mumbled to myself as a tear pricked in my eye and ran to my room.

No.. No.. No...

Why me?
